Chinese martial arts! Grandmaster

Chapter 85: Old Street Boxing Arena! Tiger of the Far East

In Myanmar and Yunnan, anyone who is involved in jade mining business will more or less have some other businesses.

For example, Yang Mei of Jufu Jade and Jewelry City not only has mines in Myanmar and Yunnan, but also has stakes in casinos and other businesses.

Liang Jinhao is the young master of "Jinhuicui Jewelry Store". It is not surprising that he has other industries and businesses in Myanmar and Yunnan.

These people have great power. Not only do they have money, they also support a large group of people.

but,

What surprised Chen Jie was that this 'young master's' attitude towards him clearly treated him as a member of this circle and he did not neglect him at all.

"The price is negotiable! When we get back to Pingzhou, you have to sell me some good stuff. The Jade and Jade Exhibition will be held next month, and we at Jinhuicui are still short of something to show off."

Hao Shao said enthusiastically with a smile on his face.

Chen Jie nodded and said calmly, "Okay! Let's talk about it when we get back to Pingzhou. Lao Yu, why don't you talk to Hao Shao first? I'll eat something first. I'm a little hungry!"

He didn't want to continue arguing with Hao Shao. This yellow-haired man was about the same age as him, but opening a restaurant in Kokang Old Street was not something he could do simply.

Everyone around him was looking at him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

hiss--!
What is this guy's background?
How dare you talk to 'Hao Shao' like that.

Many people around saw Chen Jie's calm and composed look and immediately showed a strange expression.

What is Hao Shao’s status in Kokang Laojie?
This guy was speaking arrogantly in Hao Shao's restaurant, seemingly not taking "Hao Shao" seriously at all.

The key is,
Hao Shao did not show any anger on his face, but smiled and said to Chen Jie:
"Okay, you eat first. I'll treat you to this meal as an apology for what happened last time!"

"Come on, open two bottles of good wine for Mr. Chen!"

"I forgot to tell you that I have a private room over at the boxing stadium tonight. How about we come to my room tonight and watch and chat?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone around was stunned.

Even Yu Changan, the tomboy, and the skinny monkey all looked at Chen Jie in surprise.

Who is Brother Jie?
How come even the ruthless and arrogant 'Hao Shao' wants to win him over and make friends with him?
Could he also be the young master of a jade mine?
Before this, Yu Changan just thought that Chen Jie was good at kung fu and had money.

Although the four of us had no choice but to follow him, we thought it should be pretty good.

When they saw 'Hao Shao's' attitude towards Chen Jie, Yu Changan and the other two were puzzled.

If it was just because he was rich, Hao Shao would definitely not have this attitude!

It's rare to see Hao Shao being so polite to others and being so humble.

"Thank you! Let's talk tonight!"

Chen Jie nodded and stopped being polite.

The other party expressed friendly attitude towards him one after another, so Chen Jie naturally would not show a bad face to the other party.

He still has hundreds of pieces of jade and emerald at home, and there will definitely be more in the future.

It is not enough to rely solely on the sales channels of 'Jufu Jade City'!

One more business partner is always better than one more enemy.

The Jinhuicui Jewelry Store in Pingzhou, Focheng is very large in scale and has stronger shipping capacity than "Jufu".

It’s no wonder that Liang Jinhao’s restaurant has a rich variety of dishes that are very much to Chen Jie’s liking.

an hour later,
After eating and drinking, Chen Jie and others got up and left the restaurant.

It's still early and there's still plenty of time before the underground boxing match in the evening.

Chen Jie naturally didn't want to be idle, so he followed Yu Changan and strolled around the streets of Kokang.

The place of Laogai, Kokang has been in the midst of war for many years.

However, the economy of this place can be considered outstanding in all of Southeast Asia.

It is a very prosperous place, with many gold diggers and people making money through illegal means. It is especially busy at night.

As this place vigorously develops the gambling business, various underground casinos have developed rapidly.

Therefore, over the years, the gambling industry in Laogai, Kokang has become famous, attracting many foreign gamblers and gold diggers.

Various forces are intertwined and complicated.

Six p.m.

Chen Jie followed Yu Changan and the other two and went to the back of the underground casino.

This place looks like an abandoned factory with a very large area inside.

The surrounding walls were hung with lights and cameras.

The entire underground boxing gambling venue is under surveillance with almost no blind spots.

Any movement of the audience will be perfectly recorded by the camera.

More importantly, no one is allowed to have a gun in their hands before entering.

Before entering, everyone's weapons must be stored in an iron cabinet.

"Is this the largest underground boxing arena in Kokang Old Street?"

Chen Jie looked at the boxing arena with some surprise.

The area of this underground boxing ring is as large as half a football field.

There are many seats around, as well as many boxes, which can accommodate at least two thousand people watching at the same time.

Seeing Chen Jie's shocked expression, Yu Changan beside him smiled and said:
"Yes, this is also one of the three largest boxing stadiums in Myanmar and Yunnan. What would you like to drink? Coffee and drinks are provided free of charge!"

Chen Jie shook his head and said, "No need. Which seat is the box that Hao Shao mentioned before? Let's go and join in the fun."

This is his first time in an underground boxing ring.

He was a little uncomfortable with so many people around him and wanted to find a quiet place to sit.

"Okay! We'll go over there now."

Yu Changan was very familiar with the place and walked forward with Chen Jie.

Looking at the entire underground boxing ring, Chen Jie couldn't help but sigh:
“I didn’t expect the scale of this underground boxing ring to be so large!”

Rows of high-intensity lights are fixed in prominent positions on the surrounding walls and on the steel structure ceiling above the boxing ring.

The entire boxing ring was brightly lit.

It was already dusk, but it was as bright as day inside.

In the middle of the boxing arena is an octagonal cage, but it is somewhat different from the octagonal cage used in professional boxing matches.

The surrounding area is reinforced with steel bars, and the iron net is as thick as a finger.

in addition,

There is no rubber mat on the ring, but a hard surface made of reinforced concrete.

The surrounding pillars are made of reinforced concrete, and the iron mesh is fixed on the pillars, which is very strong.

After entering the boxing ring,
The boxers on both sides had no choice but to fight to the death, and were not allowed to leave until the iron gate was opened.

call--!
Seeing the scene in front of him, Chen Jie couldn't help but take a deep breath.

For some reason, his blood flowed faster and his blood was burning.

There were faint dark red blood stains on the floor of the octagonal boxing ring. Although they had been cleaned, they still exuded an indescribable smell.

at this time,

The entire boxing hall was filled with people and it was very lively.

Some were sitting in their seats chatting with their companions, while others were checking the odds for tonight's boxing match.

On the east side of the underground boxing ring hall is a row of service areas for betting.

Any audience member who wants to place a bet can go to the betting area.

As the boxing match approached, the atmosphere in the entire boxing hall seemed a bit depressing.

There was a sense of impending storm in the air.

When they arrived at Liang Jinhao's box, the two sides naturally exchanged some pleasantries.

"Chen Jie, let's not say any more polite words. We are all friends from now on!"

Liang Jinhao smiled and said, "Since we are watching a boxing match tonight, do you have a favorite boxer? Who do you plan to bet on?"

Chen Jie shook his head and said calmly:
"I have no interest in betting on boxing. Besides, I only know there are eight boxing matches tonight. I don't know who the players are. How can I bet?"

Liang Jinhao was stunned when he heard this, and pointed to a colorful newspaper on the coffee table in the box and said, "Isn't there a list of matches and detailed introductions of the sixteen boxers on it?"

"Huh? There really is one? Let me take a look first."

Chen Jie picked up the lottery newspaper on the coffee table and glanced at it.

It really has all the boxers' detailed information and match lists. This is a lottery report specially designed for VIP customers to bet on boxing.

The description of the boxer in the lottery newspaper is very detailed.

It not only includes the height, age, nickname, style characteristics and so on of the sixteen boxers.

Even the records of all the underground boxing matches in Myanmar and Yunnan are annotated in detail.

From this lottery report, you can basically get a general idea of the overall strength of each boxer.

After Chen Jie unfolded the lottery newspaper and saw the detailed introduction of the first boxer, he was stunned for a moment.

Name: Chen Zhilong;

Nationality: Huaxiawandao;
Age: 31 years old;
Nickname: Battle Knife;

Height: 186cm;

Wingspan: 188cm;

Weight: 210 lbs.
Features: Proficient in Taekwondo, good at kicking, advocating offense, and comprehensive fighting style;
Record: 7 wins and 1 loss;
-

Perhaps many people will question the "performance".

It is believed that underground boxing matches are extremely cruel, and both parties have to sign a life and death agreement before stepping onto the ring.

Since you lost to your opponent and were declared the loser, why didn’t you die?
in fact,

There are also cases where the winner is a slight advantage in underground boxing matches. After fighting hard, both sides are exhausted and are knocked to the ground by the opponent with one move.

At this time, it seemed very difficult for the other party to just stand.

How can I have the strength to kill in such a short time?

Once someone falls to the ground due to injury, as long as he cannot stand up within half a minute and the dominant party is still standing in the ring, the match will be over.

Therefore, it does not mean that underground boxing betting can definitely eliminate "fake fights", but it can reduce the probability of "fake fights".

Only a true "life and death blood battle" to the death can reduce the situation of fake boxing to the limit.

There are many underground boxing matches in Southeast Asia, but not all of them are life-and-death fights!
Any boxer standing in the ring is afraid of getting injured!
Therefore,
Once the opponent is knocked down, as long as the opponent loses the power to fight back, the party that has gained the advantage usually will not kill the opponent!
If the strength of both sides is equal, there is a high risk of a complete annihilation, and if things go wrong, both sides will perish.

This is why underground boxing gambling is so popular in Southeast Asia, but in the ring, the mortality rate is usually around 30%.

of course,

There are many cases of serious injuries, and once they lose, they almost always leave the ring lying down.

Moreover, if a boxer loses, his future value will plummet. If he wants to get a high boxing bonus, he must fight again to qualify.

Perhaps it is for this reason that the bloodiness and brutality constantly stimulate the audience's adrenaline.

The underground boxing betting in Southeast Asia will attract more and more wealthy people to watch the fights.

There is a lot of pressure in today's society, and the rich also seem empty.

The bloody and brutal underground boxing matches can relax their minds. If they win the bet, they will feel very excited and never get tired of it.

Perhaps it was because the first-place boxer, like Chen Jie, had the same last name as "Chen", so Chen Jie paid more attention to him.

Liang Jinhao next to him smiled and said:

"Chen Jie, the ones in front are relatively weak, just look at the ones behind. Betting on them will definitely make money!"

Chen Jie was slightly startled when he heard this, and asked in surprise: "Is that so?"

but,

When he saw the last person behind him, Chen Jie frowned and said, "Polar Bear Fighting Nation? Tugrev? Who is this guy?"

Name: Tugurev;
Nationality: Polar Bear (Russia);
Age: 33 years old;
Nickname: Tiger of the Far East;
Height: 190cm;

Wingspan: 189cm;

Weight: 253 lbs.
Features: Proficient in sambo, good at wrestling, and fierce fighting style;
Battle record: unknown;
Note: Tugrev comes from one of the black boxing training camps - the Siberian training camp.

-

Next, Chen Jie saw Tugrev’s odds and was immediately shocked.

6.89:1;

In other words, if you bet 1300 yuan on Tugurev to win, even if Tugurev wins, you can only win about yuan.

This kind of odds will only appear when there is a huge difference in strength.

More importantly, judging from the list introduction in this lottery newspaper.

The Chinese Chen Zhilong who is at the front of the list, faces Tuglev from the Polar Bear.

It is clear,
Tugurev from the polar bear country is the strongest among the sixteen boxers tonight.

Even the organizers of underground boxing betting are very optimistic about this top master from the Polar Bear region.

He weighs 253 pounds, which is equivalent to 115 kg. In terms of body size, he already has a great advantage.

Liang Jinhao pointed to the last item on the lottery report, "Tugulev", and said with a smile:

"Chen Jie, this guy has a great background, and he is one of the top masters specially invited tonight!"

"He is not a professional boxer, but a fighter from a Siberian training camp. He was once a combat instructor for Wagner's mercenaries and retired three years ago!"

"In the years since he retired, he has participated in more than a hundred underground boxing matches in the Middle East and Central Asia, and he has never lost a single fight!"

"According to incomplete statistics, more than thirty opponents died under his punches, and the rest were seriously injured or even paralyzed!"

"I plan to bet on him tonight. The odds are low, but it's a sure bet!"

Chen Jie looked at Tugrev's information in detail and frowned, "Why aren't his achievements listed?"

This guy is the most terrifying underground boxing master in terms of both his physique and overall record.

Although Chen Jie has always liked watching professional boxing matches and joined an elite martial arts gym that also focuses on professional boxing training.

but,

He has seen real life and death battles.

Liu Qi killed Fei Long, the third in command of the "Qing Yi Sect", in the ring, and "Thirteenth Aunt" crippled Wan Jinpeng of Humenfang on the spot. These were all "life and death rings"!
and so.

He knew that the fighting style in underground gambling boxing was very different from that in professional boxing.

In addition, according to his understanding, many foreign fighting skills are quite lethal.

Even in the past, any martial arts master, such as Huo Yuanjia, who defeated a foreign "strongman" would be celebrated with drums and gongs.

Moreover, it is not uncommon for many Chinese martial arts masters who have achieved breakthroughs in the level of "hidden power" to be beaten to death by foreign "strongmen" in the arena of life and death.

This shows that the top foreign fighting skills are not bad in lethality.

Even in terms of explosive power, many foreign fighting skills have an advantage.

"It only records the records of the underground boxing scene in Myanmar and Yunnan. No one has kept a detailed account of the records of other places."

Liang Jinhao explained with a smile.

He was just a businessman doing business in Myanmar and Yunnan, running jade mines, restaurants, etc.

Liang Jinhao did not participate in the underground casino business and his knowledge of it was limited.

"Judging from Tugrev's physique, he is indeed a very terrifying master!"

"Huh? Yamamoto Benjiro? Why is there another Japanese islander?"

"It seems that the scale of this underground boxing match in Kokang Laojie is quite large. They even invited Japanese people to participate?"

"According to the lottery rankings you just mentioned, this guy ranks second from the bottom, and his strength is not much weaker than Tugrev."

When Chen Jie saw the second to last name on the lottery list, he was stunned.

Yamamoto Jiro!

As soon as you see the name, you can tell that he is a boxer from Japan.

Tonight's underground boxing bet in Kokang did not have much impact.

If Chen Jie had not happened to come to the Yunnan-Yunnan border to buy "fire" and met Yu Changan.

He hadn't even heard of the underground boxing matches in Guokang.

For the domestic professional boxing world, many underground boxing matches in Southeast Asia have never been heard of.

But when Chen Jie saw the list of participating boxers, he discovered that the participating boxers were not only from China, but also from Myanmar, Yunnan, southern Thailand and other places.

There are even masters from 'Polar Bear' and 'Sun Island'.

As a result, tonight's underground boxing betting is on a large scale.

It should have a great influence on the underground boxing gambling circle.
