Chapter 74 Helpless
"Yuan Jia, sister-in-law, oh, Akan, you are here too, just right." During breakfast, Nong Jinsun walked in with a newspaper in his hand.
"Uncle Master!"
"Jinsun, it's just right, come and eat together!"
"Yuan Jia, don't have to worry, I've eaten it," Nong Jinsun stopped Huo Yuanjia, then handed the newspaper in his hand to Huo Yuanjia and said, "Look at this."
"Challenge Book!" When I saw that the most conspicuous position in the newspaper was a challenge book, and the target of the challenge was Huo Yuanjia, the president of the Jingwu Gymnastics Association.
And there are four challengers this time, namely the boxing champion from the UK, Peter Smith; the head coach of the Royal Knights from Belgium, Hans Hesso; the swordsman from Spain, Anthony Garcia and the samurai Tanaka Ando from Japan.
Although there is no other detailed introduction from them, it can be seen that these people's titles are not slight people. The last person seems a bit strange, but it is definitely not easy to be placed in the finale position.
But the most important thing is not this, the focus is on time.
"How is this possible to challenge four masters at the same time in one day!" Chen Kan exclaimed after taking the newspaper and looking at it.
Even if you are a warrior in power, you are still a human being, not a machine, and you will challenge four masters at the same time. Not to mention anything else, it will be a great challenge to physical strength and spirit.
"I'm just worried about this." Nong Jinsun looked at Huo Yuanjia, "Yuan Jia, what do you think?"
"Check!" Huo Yuanjia nodded firmly.
"Yuan Jia, you can't accept this, these are four people." Nong Jinsun was anxious immediately. He was worried that Huo Yuanjia would agree immediately after seeing it, so he rushed over immediately when he saw it, wanting to convince Huo Yuanjia.
"I have to answer this!"
Yes, this time they will publish the challenge book in the newspaper. Now everyone in Shanghai knows it. In this case, Huo Yuanjia has to accept it.
"We just think that we didn't see..."
Before Nong Jinsun finished speaking, Huo Yuanjia interrupted: "Check!"
"Sister-in-law, this is too dangerous. Please advise Yuan Jia, and Akan, and talk about your master." Nong Jinsun turned to Yue Ci and Chen Kan and said.
Yue Ci "looked at" Huo Yuanjia and stretched out one hand to hold Huo Yuanjia's hand. Although she didn't say anything, her attitude was already very clear.
Nong Jinsun did not expect that Yue Ci would stand on Huo Yuanjia's side. He knew Huo Yuanjia's character and also knew that Huo Yuanjia would definitely accept it. His original hope was that Yue Ci could stop Huo Yuanjia. He believed that if Yue Ci stopped it, Huo Yuanjia would definitely listen.
But I didn't expect...
As for Chen Kan, it is useless to say it. Huo Yuanjia's decision is so easy to shake. Although Chen Kan also thinks that playing four games a day is indeed dangerous, Huo Yuanjia has already made a decision, and Chen Kan has no choice. If he is the one who challenged, Chen Kan will make the same decision as Huo Yuanjia.
"Hi... well, I will contact the newspaper!" Nong Jinsun sighed long, knowing that things cannot be done, so he can only go ahead.
"Please trouble you, Jinsun!"
"You, it's really..." Nong Jinsun pointed at Huo Yuanjia and didn't know what to do.
Huo Yuanjia smiled and asked, "By the way, Jinsun, why do these four people challenge me at the same time?"
Generally speaking, foreigners look down on Chinese people and will not actively challenge Chinese martial artists, at least they will not take the initiative to issue war letters. They will use some methods to anger Chinese martial artists and let Chinese martial artists issue war letters themselves.
It is rare to take the initiative to issue a war letter like this, and it is through newspapers. Besides, even if there is only one, there are four people at once, and neither Huo Yuanjia nor Chen Kan can understand.
"It's not because of you two!" Nong Jinsun looked at Chen Kan and Huo Yuanjia and said.
"Master and me?" Chen Kan couldn't understand, what did it have to do with him?
"Because you have won too many times."
"Do those foreigners feel uncomfortable? But that's not the case!" Huo Yuanjia asked.
“Yes, but not!”
"Oh, what's the solution?"
"There is indeed the reason you mentioned. Seeing the warriors in their country fail, they naturally feel uncomfortable. This is inevitable, let alone losing to you, they are naturally even more uncomfortable." Nong Jinsun explained:
"But this is not the main reason for launching this challenge. The ring was originally built by several foreign merchants. It was the place where they made money. They made money by opening gambling plates. Now, because you master and apprentice have won too many times, the Chinese people also believe in you, especially Yuan Jia, who bet on you all the money. Those people have lost a lot, so they will naturally come to cause trouble."
"So that's it!" After Nong Jinsun explained this, they understood that it was nothing more than the word "interest".
Boxing gambling has been around for a long time, from the ancient Colosseum to the modern black boxing, rings, etc., all boxing gambling.
No matter how you define the word "gambling", one thing remains unchanged, that is, the person who opens a casino wants to make money. If he can't make money, would he be so stupid to open this casino?
In Shanghai, this arena is a boxing and gambling place. The winning streak between Chen Kan and Huo Yuanjia and his disciples made the owners of the casino lose a lot of money, so they found four masters from their own country to defeat Huo Yuanjia.
At the same time, they also took a fancy to the Chinese people's trust and admiration for Huo Yuanjia, so that more Chinese people will put money on Huo Yuanjia. As long as they defeat Huo Yuanjia, they will not only be able to make back all the previous losses this time, but may even make another profit, so this challenge.
...
As expected, everything was the same as the foreigners who were doing this behind the scenes. Through the newspapers, basically all Shanghai people knew about this competition.
Moreover, out of trust in Huo Yuanjia, many people win by buying Huo Yuanjia.
For this challenge, everyone at the Jingwu Gymnastics Association also took a lot of effort to create a "cheerleader" with very national characteristics for Huo Yuanjia.
As for Huo Yuanjia, he is still doing what he does these days, and his mentality is very peaceful and he can't tell at all that he will play a major match in the future.
The more different one is Chen Kan. Chen Kan has been suspicious recently and has no choice. Chen Kan knows that Huo Yuanjia died in this ring in the movie, so he has to be cautious.
Chen Kan knew that Huo Yuanjia died of poisoning, but there may be some in these movies how he was poisoned, which competition he died, and when he was poisoned.
