Chapter 241: Saga Gaming
The weather is still very hot, and Li Su rarely goes out except for teaching in primary schools recently.
The house was hung with ice cubes, and it was very cool.
He won't run out if he's fine, go out and come back so hot that he can smell the smell of meat.
And the reconstruction of those affected by the disaster is still in full swing.
Of course, the weather is too hot, and Shangguan Yi is strictly controlling the working hours of these villagers.
Work can only start in the morning and evening, and it is strictly forbidden to work at noon.
Otherwise, these houses were built for the people themselves, and they were paid for their wages.
These people are eager to do it for twelve hours a day.
However, in such a hot weather now, if you do this, something will have to happen sooner or later.
Now, the first new houses have been built.
About thirty or forty houses were built in each village.
In this way, more villagers can be placed in it, and the place where they live can be further improved.
……
At this time, several major families found Taizong Li Shimin and asked to hold another gambling event for the victims.
The explanation of these families is that although the reconstruction work of the victims is in full swing, the future life of the victims is still a big problem.
Not only have their homes destroyed, but their crops have also been flooded.
Even if a house is built for them, how will they live this year?
There is no grain for next year, how can they farm?
Therefore, these great families decided to contribute to the gambling again.
And all the proceeds from this gambling will be used on the victims.
The officials of these great families simply described their families as the embodiment of truth, goodness and beauty, they were the saviors, and they were willing to do such things for the sake of the people who were affected by the disaster.
Hearing the words of these great families, Li Shimin couldn't help but sneer.
If you really have such a good heart, why don't you just pay out of your own pocket to fund the victims?
Li Shimin didn't believe that these people from the family really had such a good heart.
Holding a gamble, if they are really for the sake of the victims, they really can't believe it.
But if they don't agree, they are all for the victims, and Li Shimin really can't find a reason to refuse.
And what about promises?
Li Shimin believes that this method of gambling will become a new tool for the family to accumulate wealth in the future.
This is a method created by Yu'er, and even I didn't dare to decide to promote it in the entire Datang!
How can this kind of money-gathering tool fall into the hands of the family?
So, Li Shimin summoned Li Su into the palace.
"Son, now that the family is asking for a gambling event under the slogan of rebuilding for the disaster victims, what is your best way to deal with it?"
Li Su couldn't help but say helplessly: "Father, my son has long said that if my father can promote it in the entire Tang Dynasty in the name of the imperial court, it will definitely increase my Datang's tax revenue by at least fifty percent!" ”
In fact, if it can really be promoted, how can the growth be more than 50%? It is not even known whether it will be able to double.
Li Shimin couldn't help but say helplessly: "I also know that this is a good way to increase taxes, but helplessly, this gambling is impossible to pass above the court!" If you don't talk about others, these people from these families will not be able to pass. ”
With such a good means of accumulating money, it is absolutely impossible for these families to let it fall into the hands of the emperor, and they must hold it in their own hands to be at ease.
Li Su couldn't help but smile and said: "Father, this method was actually thought up by the son-in-law, and if you want to deal with the family, it is not a difficult matter." It's just that he still needs the cooperation of his father. ”
Well?
Does Su'er really have a solution?
Hearing Li Su's words, Li Shimin couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly asked: "Su'er, what solution do you have, hurry up and listen to it." ”
Li Su smiled slightly, walked two steps, attached it to Li Shimin's ear, and whispered his own method.
After hearing Li Su's method, Li Shimin couldn't help but nod again and again, and seemed to appreciate it very much.
……
More than a month later, in Chang'an City, advertisements are present.
This time, the advertisement was jointly played by several major families, and the scale was even grander and more sensational than Li Su's advertisement last time.
This time, the advertisement was almost all over the streets and alleys of Chang'an City.
Moreover, not only limited to Chang'an City, but even the towns within dozens of miles around Chang'an City have gone to advertise.
With the permission of the emperor, several great families decided to hold another gambling event.
In this lottery, they will prepare at least five first prizes with a prize fund of 5 million dollars.
At least ten second prizes with a prize of one million dollars.
At least 100 third prizes, 100,000 dollars!
The prize money for the first three prizes is the same as the last time King Shu set it.
But the number of awards is even more than the last one.
Looking at the advertisement, this time, several major families have really made a lot of money.
In addition, these great families promised that all the proceeds of this gambling will be used for the post-disaster reconstruction work of the victims.
The last gambling has completely seduced the enthusiasm of the people.
Especially the jackpot among the people around them is a huge thrill for their neighbors.
For example, the original small business on Chang'an Street, Tofu Shih Tzu Cuihua's house.
But he won a second prize at once, with a prize of 1 million dollars.
A few days after winning the second prize, the Cuihua family spent more than 100,000 yuan to buy a three-entry yard on Pingkang Street, and the whole family moved in.
I heard that people are still on that street, set up a shop, and do serious business.
This Cuihua family is known to everyone on several streets.
There's no way, his family's tofu is so good, and he has a beautiful daughter, it's hard to think of being famous.
Looking at other people's families, originally everyone's living standards were on the same level.
Even, there are many families whose family conditions are stronger than those of Cuihua's.
But what about now?
All of a sudden, they became the best people!
The gap between their homes has come to heaven and earth.
How can this not make people envious, jealous and hateful!
Therefore, when I heard that this time, five days later, when the gambling was going to be carried out again, hundreds of people were riveted and decided to give it a go.
As long as you can succeed, you can turn over.
There are countless people who hold this point of view, and they can't wait for the next few days to pass in the blink of an eye, and this gambling activity will start soon.
And the major families who control all this behind them can't help but be secretly happy in their hearts when they see their advertisements achieve such good results.
At this time, they had to admire Li Su, the king of Shu, who was able to come up with all this.
However, all of this is just a marriage for their family.
