Datang: Li Er, are you teaching me how to do things?

Chapter 200

When the sun was setting, Li Yun escorted Fang Yiyu back to Fangfu, and then back to the East Palace.

He found a pen and paper, and carefully reviewed the activities of the past few days.

He then made a conclusion, that is, he did not do a lot of activities.

Especially about the promotion of the welfare lottery, for example, the businessman from Jiangnan used that method to advertise his cloth shop.

If Li Yun put down his figure and promoted it himself, he could persuade more people to take advantage of this opportunity to advertise.

Maybe there will be dozens of such businessmen alone by then, which will be hundreds of thousands of dollars.

He has some regrets, but even if he regrets the situation in front of him, he has no choice but to let nature take its course.

He then packed up his mood and rested.

…………

In the early morning of the next day, Li Yun just opened his sleepy eyes when he heard the sound of the system.

"Ding, congratulations to the host for successfully clocking in, rewarding the host for the top-level knowledge and specialization of the coal mine profession."

A huge amount of information came into Li Yun's brain, which made him very excited.

The information passed this time, in addition to some knowledge and experience about coal mine mining, also includes some large coal mine excavation sites in the entire Datang territory.

Because of this piece of information, Li Yun didn't even need to go to the site to investigate, and he could say with certainty where there are coal mines and where there are no coal mines.

Then he found a pen and paper, and carefully recorded the received information in his brain.

He planned to speak to the imperial court after the welfare lottery activity ended, and the imperial court would also have a rich source of funds by then.

He then washed up and exercised. An hour later, when he was about to have breakfast, a eunuch hurried over.

"Your Highness, there are officials from the Ministry of Households seeking to see you."

"Officials of the household department?"

Li Yun was slightly taken aback, and then asked someone to come in. The person who came was a middle-aged man. After he saluted, he said happily: "Your Highness, there are tens of thousands of people in front of the Xishi lottery shop now. Waiting to buy a lottery ticket, Weichen came over and wanted to ask His Highness to open the door earlier."

Li Yun was overjoyed, "Okay, open the door now."

"You go there first, arrange the household department, the officials of the East Palace, and the father-in-law in the palace, and open the door immediately after the lonely guards of the East Palace pass by."

"Yes."

The middle-aged man then left, and Li Yun immediately dispatched soldiers. Since there were tens of thousands of people there, at least [-] soldiers must be dispatched to maintain order.

After a while, Li Yun didn't have breakfast, so he led the soldiers and hurried over to the West Market. Sure enough, he saw many people crowded in front of the lottery shop.

He immediately arranged for soldiers to guard the order, and then entered the lottery shop to open the lottery shop.

"I bought ten bets, yes, the number I bought is..."

"I want to buy a hundred bets. I just paid my wages yesterday, and I have a hunch that I will win the jackpot."

"You can't do it, I'm here, I want to buy two hundred bets, my name is Gao Lin, and my secret word is..."

As soon as the gate of the lottery store opened, people rushed over immediately.

Li Yun noticed on the third floor that many people were waiting while eating.

Which means they came over without having breakfast.

"How did this happen, do you know the details?"

"Your Highness, I have a little clue."

The official then told what he knew. It turned out that the lottery store opened yesterday, and many people came to buy lottery tickets. This news has aroused huge discussions in Chang'an.

Because there were so many buyers, everyone was worried that the imperial court would embezzle the money, but when they came to their senses, they thought it was impossible.

After all, the imperial court will not compete with the common people for profit at the risk of the world.

And once it is passed on to ten, ten to hundreds, many people know that the procedure for buying lottery tickets is very reasonable and safe, so they have more trust in lottery tickets.

This is why so many people bought lottery tickets next.

In fact, Li Yun and the others did not do any special propaganda, they just let the common people believe that this is a channel that can be given a go.

It has to be said that no matter what time it is, everyone wants to get rich overnight.

"Oh, that's a good thing."

After a while, Fang Yiyu also came over, and seeing so many customers, he said happily: "Brother Yun, we might be able to sell millions of dollars today, plus tomorrow, there will be 200 million yuan. "

Li Yun was also in a good mood, nodded and said: "I hope so."

"I want to buy a thousand bets, let me pass quickly, they buy one or two bets, why should they be in front of me."

"No matter who it is, they all line up."

The lottery shop now has a total of twenty windows, but there are too many people outside the door, so the queue is still very long.

Some people wondered if they could jump in line, but they were naturally rejected.

Lottery tickets must be fair and open, and the early queuing must show that buying lottery tickets is a reasonable and protected matter.

The soldiers sternly rejected those who jumped in line, which made the common people in line more convinced.

"Who says I buy one or two bets, I buy twenty bets, don't laugh and underestimate people."

More and more people flocked to West Market from all over Chang'an, most of them were buying lottery tickets.

An hour later, "Your Highness, [-] bets have been sold this morning."

"Your Highness, 20 bets have been sold so far."

"Your Highness, I'm overjoyed, a big client came and bought [-] bets directly."

"Your Highness, good news, 50 bets have been sold now."

……

More and more people rushed to the West Market, as if there was something great in the West Market.

Sitting in the carriage, Wei Zheng saw the people rushing to the West Market, saw their eyes shining, their faces full of excitement, and they frowned slightly.

"During the Spring and Autumn Period, all the people in the Qi State were fond of gambling, and the country's fortunes were in dire straits. Could it be that the Tang Dynasty is also like this?"

The accompanying guards paused for a moment, then hesitated to speak.

"What do you have to say?"

Wei Zheng is famous for his strong remonstrance, so naturally he will not prohibit his subordinates from speaking.

What's more, Wei Zheng's family is poor, and he can't afford to support guards. In order to ensure Wei Zheng's safety, Li Er specially dispatched a team of thousand cattle guards to protect Wei Zheng.

So this guard is actually the school officer of Qianniuwei, not Wei Zheng's subordinate.

"My lord, I feel that ordinary people are not good at gambling."

"how do I say this?"

The guard paused for a moment, and then slowly said: "The villain has also heard about the lottery, but the vast majority of people, at most, play with ten bets and twenty bets, which is not a good gamble."

"Those who buy more are either gamblers or rich people."

"So this welfare lottery is nothing more than a channel for ordinary people to get rich overnight, but the big guys are just playing around at will, not to the point of being deeply involved."

Wei Zheng was taken aback, "Then did you buy it?"

"No, the villain's luck has always been bad, so I didn't buy a single bet. In fact, many people around the villain are just like the villain."
