The bank was not a property of the imperial court, but was jointly funded and established by Ying Zheng, Ying Feiyu, Wang Ben and others.
The lottery will be issued in the bank, which is the private property of the few of them, and does not need to be discussed by the court at all.
It has nothing to do with those old censors!
All it takes is a simple negotiation with a few veterans!
Therefore, after the morning court, Ying Feiyu called Wang Bi and others to the imperial study room.
"Your Majesty, I have arranged for my craftsmen to pack up their things and board trains in batches from various places. With the cooperation of the government, they will build nursing homes and orphanages as quickly as possible. Your Majesty, you can rest assured!"
As soon as he entered the imperial study, Meng Tian handed over his hand and reported.
I thought His Majesty called them here just to inquire about the progress!
"No! This is not what I am doing!"
Ying Feiyu pursed his lips and showed a smile.
"Huh? Isn't it because of this? Then His Majesty called us over...?"
Meng Tian glanced at the other veterans in confusion, and couldn't help but be surprised, "Your Majesty is asking us to be used as shields again, right?"
"Your Majesty, at least we can wait for a few days. We are constantly targeting those old trolls. Others think we are crazy!"
"Yes! What those old trolls say is really unpleasant and makes people angry, but we can't provoke them too many times!"
"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, let's change the group of people. Let's stimulate it a few more times. I'm afraid the old guys at Yushitai won't be able to stand it...!"
After his reminder, Wang Ben and others waved away.
At least we need to change people, we can't always let a few of them rush to the front, right?
"No, no, no! Several ministers have misunderstood! I do have a new idea that will benefit the country and the people, but it has nothing to do with the imperial court, let alone Yushitai!"
Seeing the cautious expressions of the old guys, Ying Feiyu felt funny and quickly explained.
"Huh? Benefiting the country and the people has nothing to do with the court?"
These words made several old guys even more confused.
"That's right...!"
Ying Feiyu stood up, put his hands behind his back, wandered among a few old guys, and continued: "I plan to open a lottery business in the bank!"
"What is the lottery?"
Like Ying Zheng, this was the first time for the veterans to hear this term, and their faces were full of confusion.
Ying Feiyu guessed that this would be the case, and explained everything he had said to his father before in full to the old guys.
Fortunately, the veterans are very understanding and will understand after a detailed introduction!
"Oh! I understand. Buying lottery tickets not only gives you a chance to win, but you can also contribute to nursing homes and orphanages!"
Chunyu Yue's eyes lit up.
"That's right! That's what it means! Two cents is nothing to the common people, but the entire Qin Dynasty combined is a huge number!"
Ying Feiyu nodded and said.
"I support your Majesty's opinion! Daqin not only has lonely elderly people and children, but also some impoverished families due to various reasons, and they really need some funds to support them!"
After Chunyu Yue, Wang Ben also nodded.
"I have no objection. The welfare lottery is beneficial to the court and the people, and it is done voluntarily by the people. It has no impact on the people's hearts!"
"Yes, I agree too!"
"Your Majesty, I listen to you...!"
This suggestion is not harmful to either party, and the veterans will certainly not object.
"When the lottery tickets go on sale, I will buy some and contribute to the construction of orphanages and nursing homes!"
"Haha! Lao Kang, I think you don't want to contribute to the construction of the orphanage, but you want to earn the ten thousand gold, right?"
"You old guy, you know it, why do you say it?"
Kang Anping smiled with wrinkles on his face, rubbing his hands together, impatiently.
But let Chun Yuyue reveal his true purpose directly!
"Haha! When the lottery tickets go on sale, Lao Zhang should buy some!"
Meng Yi said with a joking smile.
"Why?"
Zhang Han was somewhat confused.
He does have this idea, but he hasn't spoken yet. How does this old guy know?
"If you win a big prize, you'll have pocket money, so you don't have to ask my wife for more, haha!"
Meng Yi laughed mockingly.
"Fart! Who said that a certain person would reach out for a little bit of flowers? After all, a certain person is also the head of the family, right?"
Although this was true, he certainly couldn't admit it in front of His Majesty.
He stiffened his neck and argued.
"Ha ha……!"
However, what was waiting for him was the laughter of the entire imperial study room.
No one believed him at all!
We have known each other for most of our lives, who doesn’t know who?
"Nowadays, people's living standards are generally rising, and a few pennies really means nothing to them. I believe that the introduction of lottery tickets will definitely attract people to buy crazy. I wonder if there should be a limit?"
Chunyu Yue asked seriously.
"Snapped……"
However, before he finished speaking, Zhang Han slapped him on the back of his head, "Are you stupid, old man? Half of the lottery money is donated to orphanages and nursing homes. Do you think the people donate too much money?"
"Forehead……"
After his explanation, Chunyu Yue felt like a fool.
Who would object to donating too much money?
"The value of the lottery ticket is not high and there is no need to limit it!"
Ying Feiyu said with a smile.
"Then I'm afraid the bank's guys are busy!"
Wang Ben said with emotion.
"Yes! You only need to spend two pennies to get a chance to earn ten thousand gold. There will definitely be a lot of people going to buy it. I'm afraid that the shop assistants will be too busy and they will have to hire more if they can't keep it all!"
Zhang Han said.
"Yeah! At that time, a special lottery salesperson will be hired, who will only be responsible for the lottery part and will not participate in other business of the bank!"
Ying Feiyu nodded.
The bank's business is complex and cannot be done by just grabbing someone.
Normally, lottery stations should be opened separately.
But in order to make the people feel at ease, no matter how much they win, it will be exchanged directly by the bank, and then it is placed in the bank.
Even so, the two departments should be clearly separated and should not interfere with each other except for prize redemption!
"The ministers can rest assured. Hiring employees will indeed incur some additional expenses, but the number of winners in each lottery is limited, and all the bonuses will not be redeemed at all. The remaining part is the profit of the bank, and hiring employees is more than enough...! "
Ying Feiyu clapped his fingers and calculated for other veterans, "If 100 million people buy each issue, that is 200,000 gold. After deducting half of it and donating it to the nursing home, there will be 100,000 gold left! There are 50,000 to 60,000 gold for the people to redeem the prizes. The gold is almost gone, and the remaining money is the bank’s profit!”
"Your Majesty said every issue?"
When Zhang Han heard this number, his jaw immediately dropped.
"That's right!"
Ying Feiyu nodded firmly.
"According to His Majesty, if there are ten lottery draws every month, there will be almost four to five million gold left. That's more than five million gold in a year?"
Zhang Han quickly made a calculation in his mind.
This is the money left after deducting bonuses for nursing homes and ordinary people.
I really didn’t expect that two pennies, which looked inconspicuous, could amount to such a huge number when gathered together!
"Good guy, the lottery is so profitable?"
Before calculating, the veterans didn’t think it was anything shocking.
After this calculation, there are actually five million gold left every year?
How many businesses in Great Qin can leave five million gold in a year?
"Of course, what I'm talking about is the average! There is no guarantee that there will be any month where the 100,000 bonus is not enough to redeem!"
Lottery results are drawn randomly. What if someone is particularly lucky and buys ten bets with the same numbers, and all of them win the jackpot?
Of course, this possibility is almost zero.
In order to increase the chance of winning, ordinary people will definitely not buy the same set of numbers!
