Other money-making activities are pornography, gambling and drugs.

Porn industry veteran Zhu has already done it again, but the model is too simple.

Needless to say, the dangers involved include the physical devastation caused by infectious diseases, a series of two, two and three nesting dolls, and a simple AIDS cannot be overstated.

The other two have been around for a long time.

Industries like gambling houses have a long history, and Tian Ji horse racing is a form of gambling.

The most high-end bets use the city as a bet.

Gambling was in its infancy during the Qin and Han Dynasties, but the state also knew the harm it caused, and began to crack down on gambling, with the crime of gambling.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, gambling began to officially come into people's view, mainly led by the emperors, especially Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Wu Zetian.

There was even a female gambler in the Song Dynasty. Perhaps because women had a low status and lived in a repressive atmosphere for a long time, they developed the habit of drinking, gambling and lust.

Although all five poisons are present, there is no denying their talent. The famous Li Qingzhao is the representative of the Song Dynasty.

However, the dangers of gambling are too great. It can range from bankrupting one's fortune to ruining one's family.

Any country with the foresight to crack down on these things will endanger society.

As the saying goes, "Gambling" is one foot high, and "forbidden gambling" is one foot high.

During the Tang and Song Dynasties, a new achievement was achieved in prohibiting gambling, which was the first time that gambling was regulated in the form of statutory law.

"Tang Lv Shu Yi" has detailed provisions on the conviction and punishment of gambling.

During the Song Dynasty, laws prohibiting gambling became even more stringent, and some people even lost their heads because of gambling.

After the Ming Dynasty established Nanjing as its capital, Lao Zhu liked to visit the city privately incognito. He believed that he could see different things among the common people.

Zhu Yuanzhang discovered that there were many idlers and gamblers inside and outside Nanjing. The more he saw, the angrier he became, and he immediately decided to take heavy measures to combat corruption.

How to solve the problem of gambling?

Such a story is recorded in a book called "Jinling Trivia".

"The Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty built Xiaoyao Tower, and when he saw people playing games, raising birds, and wandering around eating, he was confined in the building and allowed to live freely, and all of them starved to death."

This is what Zhu Yuanzhang did. Zhu Yuanzhang ordered people to build a house called "Xiaoyao Tower" in Nanjing City. This was not an ordinary house. There was nothing inside except for careful decoration and filled with gambling equipment.

After the "Xiaoyao Tower" was completed, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered people to release news outside Nanjing, saying that there were free gambling venues in the city.

Not long after the news was released, countless gamblers flocked in. But after gambling for a while, the gamblers found that there was no food or drink in the entire "Xiaoyao Building". At the same time, officers and soldiers were guarding the door, and no one could leave the "Xiaoyao Building". , as a result, these gamblers starved to death.

This measure of Lao Zhu created a strong deterrent. Such a measure was unique in ancient and modern Chinese and foreign history, and the gambling atmosphere improved greatly for a while.

In the 22nd year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang once again issued an edict: "Anyone who gambles must have his wrists cut off." After Zhu Di came to the throne, he once again vigorously punished gamblers and dealt with them as repeat offenders.

But gambling cannot be banned.

That kind of getting something for nothing and using a small amount of money to attract gamblers from generation to generation.

Even in modern times, it is still banned frequently. Specially established regional casinos and countless chess and card rooms on the streets are common.

You may not know there is a casino on the Internet, on an unknown hill.

No matter how you catch them, there are still countless gamblers.

As long as there are endless casinos, gamblers will still exist. Otherwise, no matter how we manage it, it will only treat the symptoms but not the root cause.

After talking about gambling, the next step is poisoning, which also has a long history in China.

In a sense, Wu Shi San from the Wei and Jin Dynasties should be the earliest "drug" in our country's history, because after taking it, the whole body will become feverish and the mind will be manic, especially like today's stimulant drugs.

Although it has been popular for a while, it was only among celebrities and bigwigs. Ordinary people could not afford it and did not have the time.

Next is the poppy.

There are two important stages.

One is the rise of the Silk Road. With frequent exchanges with the outside world, poppy has also entered the stage of history.

However, because of the existence of traditional Chinese medicine, most of it is used as medicine, so it did not cause much waves.

Then during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the rise of the Maritime Silk Road re-introduced this extremely harmful thing into our country in large quantities.

Emperor Wanli was a drug addict.

Not to mention the Qing Dynasty, anyone who has studied some history knows that.

Foreigners not only absorb a lot of wealth from us with these things, but more importantly, they corrode the bodies of a large number of Chinese people.

Skinny "smokers" live like zombies. In order to get opium money, they often resort to any means, leading to the destruction of their families.

The most intuitive concept of the harm of pornography, gambling and drugs is the destruction of families and lives.

Zheng Xiong is not prepared to do these things, including Zheng Xiong, the brothel established by Lao Zhu, who will do it for him.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have a happy and well-off society?

The story of pornography, gambling and drugs ran through Zheng Xiong's mind and was forgotten.

Although Zheng Xiong doesn't know how to do these things, it is still possible to build a large-scale entertainment city integrating leisure and entertainment. This is a faster way to make wealth.

The ten-mile Qinhuai River is the best place.

Unable to think of anything else, Zheng Xiong focused his attention on transforming the Qinhuai River.

Shili Qinhuai has a good foundation, and with the sixteenth floor established by Lao Zhu, it is already in a position to take off.

But all of this must be changed, and pornography is a must.

The entire day, Zheng Xiong was planning the future layout of the Qinhuai River.

After some major changes, the entire layout of the Qinhuai River was changed beyond recognition.

The original buildings disappeared and were replaced by new structures and dedicated areas.

Shopping areas, dining areas, leisure areas, high-end clubs, and entertainment areas are all within sight.

As evening approaches, Zheng Xiong has not completed the design.

It wasn't until the evening of the next day, for a day and a half, that Zheng Xiong completed the revision.

The re-established drawings are officially released.

On the original basis, the territory of the entertainment area was subdivided and refined.

The main focus is entertainment and leisure, making every customer feel at home.

How should I put it? It is probably a large shopping mall, but the core is an entertainment city. Zheng Xiong combined the two to form such a product.

Looking at the masterpiece in his hand, Zheng Xiong stretched and nodded with satisfaction.

After all, it is the product of a day and a half of hard work and hard work. Just looking at the drawings makes me feel very good.

After completing this, Zheng Xiong went back.

On the third day, Zheng Xiong once again went to the door of the Ministry of Industry with the drawings in hand.
