Tang Ping said he was treating them to some steamed buns, but of course he wouldn't just eat steamed buns. He asked Xiao Luo to make a pot of mutton soup.

This sheep was raised on Oshu Road from lambs brought there.

The three brothers opened a few more bottles of wine in Tang Ping and drank until the moon was high before they staggered back.

By this time Wang Qingluan had also returned, leaning against Tang Ping and saying, "You are finally done."

"But aren't you looking for trouble for me again?" Tang Ping said with a smile: "You are so cruel. You only need one million Tang Dynasty coins to hold such a celebration."

Wang Qingluan smiled sweetly and said: "It's not aimed at you. If you accept it, the government really only has so much spare money."

"Qin Tianjian said that this winter will be very cold. You also know that cold winter is difficult. In case there is another snow disaster somewhere, so there must be one in the account‎‏​‏‏​‏​‎‏​‏‎‏‏‏ The money is ready.”

Tang Ping nodded: "I understand, and it's not enough if this celebration can't be held. Many countries have come to rely on it. This is necessary to demonstrate the national power of the Tang Dynasty. But don't you know, sir? Isn't it just money? And Let’s see how I can host this grand event this time!”

He said he was resting at home for two days, but Tang Ping still ran to Modern Times to get some things back.

On the third day, he woke up and walked to Xiahe Village next door.

Li Yuanji is already waiting for him here with the people from the preparatory committee.

Some of the young officials here had come to the legendary Xiahe Village for the first time. They were curious when they saw Tang Ping coming and quickly stood up to salute.

"Okay, okay, he hates these etiquettes, otherwise he wouldn't say he wants to work here."

It was Li Yuanji who understood Tang Ping, asked everyone else to stop, then looked at Tang Ping and asked, "Tell me, what should we do first?"

"What to do? Of course it's to make money!" Tang Ping said confidently: "If I say five million, I will pay five million, and there will never be one more cent. We only have a total of six million Tang coins now."

"I predict that in order to successfully host this grand event, we need at least 20 million on hand."

This is because the government itself has a lot of manpower that can be invested.

"Doesn't that mean we earned 14 million in five months?" Li Yuanji looked at Tang Ping and asked, "How can there be such a profitable business?"

"What five months?" Tang Ping shook his head and said, "We still need time to prepare, one month at most. After one month we will have earned one thousand four hundred

Ten thousand. "

"Hiss..." Many of the people below were working with Tang Ping for the first time. They knew that he was the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, but they did not expect that he would earn 14 million in a month.

"No need to do this, it's not that difficult. In fact, first of all, we should be able to earn four million."

Tang Ping took out a piece of paper from his bag and placed it in front of everyone.

Li Yuanji picked it up: "Datang Welfare Lottery? What does this mean?"

Tang Ping asked him to put the lottery tickets back on the table, pointed to the gray area in the middle and said, "Give me ten yuan and I'll tell you."

"Here!" Li Yuanji was most interested in these things. Hearing Tang Ping say it cost ten yuan, he asked his guard to bring him ten yuan without saying a word.

"Take a copper plate and gently scratch it on this gray‎‏​‏‏​‏​‎‏​‏‎‏‏‏. There will be writing on the bottom after scratching."

"Can you still scratch it?" Li Yuanji asked someone to bring another copper plate, and everyone else gathered around to look at him.

"The words are out, and there seems to be some small pictures!"

"There is the character Tang, there is the character long, and there is the character Luo over there..."

As Li Yuanji began to scratch the lottery ticket, the content under the gray coating began to appear.

After scraping, he blew on the gray scum and asked Tang Ping, "What next?"

Tang Ping asked him to turn over the lottery ticket and said, "Don't you see what's written here? If you scratch out a big character, you can get ten yuan; if it's two characters, it's one hundred yuan; if it's two characters, it's one hundred yuan; if it's two characters, it's Luoyang." It's one thousand; if there are four characters in it, Tang Dynasty Chang'an, then you can get 10,000 Tang Dynasty coins."

"And if there are four words "Long Live the Tang Dynasty" below, then you have won the biggest prize, with a bonus of five hundred thousand."

"How much?" Li Yuanji thought he heard wrongly.

"Five million!" Tang Ping said: "This kind of lottery ticket costs ten yuan a piece. I printed a total of 800,000 tickets. After selling them, I can get back 8 million, and the various prizes add up to 400,000." Ten thousand."

"That means we can make four million after selling these lottery tickets."

"You..." Li Yuanji asked with a strange expression: "What's the difference between it and gambling?"

"Of course there is!" Tang Ping said: "It is written in "Tang Lv Shu Yi" that gambling is illegal, but ours is sold by the government, so it is legal!"

Seeing the dumbfounded looks of several people, Tang Ping smiled and said: "Don't worry, bet

I naturally know the dangers of gambling. This lottery ticket can hold 800,000 tickets and is not only sold in Chang'an. I plan to distribute it to all the states in the country and sell it. After the lottery is divided, there will not be many in any state. "

"And by limiting the purchase of two tickets per person, people won't flock to it until the big prize comes out. Ordinary people spending twenty yuan won't have much impact on their lives."

"Those who don't win the big prize just lose ten or twenty yuan, and those who win the small prize can have fun. But the winners of the four big prizes may change their lives."

Now there are nearly 200 large and small cities in Chang'an. If 800,000 lottery tickets are distributed, there will really not be much in one place.

Populous cities like Chang'an and Luoyang also have a quota of more than 10,000 tickets at most.

Let the newsboys who deliver the Chang'an Weekly News spread to various places in Chang'an and sell them, which will definitely not cause some people to gamble through this.

After hearing Tang Ping's explanation, Li Yuanji said excitedly: "In this case, if you don't do more, won't we have enough money?"

Tang Ping was speechless. What he just said was in vain: "If there are too many lottery tickets in one place, some people may want to take a chance and buy in large quantities. What if he doesn't win much?"

In modern times, there are no news about corruption or bankruptcy caused by buying lottery tickets, so Tang Ping controls the number to be able to solve part of the financial pressure without causing too much impact on society.

"Okay." Li Yuanji nodded, then put the lottery ticket in front of Tang Ping: "Give me ten thousand!"

"What?" Tang Ping was stunned.

Li Yuanji shook the lottery ticket in his hand and said: "Ten thousand, what's written in black and white on the back of the paper is: If you have the four characters of Tang Dynasty and Chang'an, you can win a prize of 10,000. Go to the local government to collect it."

Then he pointed to the front of the lottery ticket and said: "Look here, there are four words: Da! Tang! Chang! An!"

Tang Ping didn't expect that Li Yuanji would actually win the second prize of 10,000 yuan just by taking out a random lottery ticket. You must know that the total of all second prizes was only fifty.

"Come here, help King Zhao save 10,000 yuan for tea at the resort!"

"Tang Ping, are you trying to cheat?"

"Third uncle, how could I cheat? This 10,000 yuan for tea can't be spent on 10,000 yuan? I didn't bring that much money!"

"Shit, the tea you have here is all sold to you by my tea house. The cost is up to four hundred, and you have to charge ten thousand. No, you have to pay today!"
