Cui Wenqing nodded, and asked again: "Sister Xu, since the Qinglou has been closed, I don't know how those girls in the Qinglou are settled?" ”

Before Xu Rushui could speak, He Laohan said with a smile: "Don't hide it from my uncle, now our underwear and underwear business is becoming more and more prosperous. ”

Cui Wenqing nodded with satisfaction and said: "My husband is doing this, it's not bad, in fact, we should not only pay attention to the underwear business on Hedong Road, but also take a long-term view, we must continue to expand the market, so that underwear can sweep the entire Central Plains." ”

He Laohan knew that Cui Wenqing was a person who could do what he said, so he hurriedly asked, "Then I don't know how my uncle is going to plan?" ”

Cui Wenqing thought for a moment and said: "Otherwise, when the matter in Fuzhou is completed, I will take Chang Wen to Luoyang again when I have time to see if I can open up an underwear market in Luoyang City and establish a branch of our Armani clothing store there." ”

"That's very good." He Laohan nodded again and again, and couldn't help laughing.

While a few people were discussing, they suddenly heard the sound of firecrackers outside, followed by a burst of noise and celebration.

Cui Wenqing was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "What, is there a new store opening next to our clothing store?" ”

He Laohan explained with a smile: "Uncle I don't know,We recently opened a new store next door,It is said that what is the welfare lottery,Buy that lottery ticket can also win,The people are all very curious about this,Early this morning,The welfare lottery shop is already full of people,Waiting for the opening。 ”

"What, the welfare lottery is already open?" Cui Wenqing smiled in surprise, then felt excited, and hurriedly said, "Let's go and take a look." ”

After that, several people left the clothing store and came to the street, and saw that in front of a store not far from the clothing store, it was full of people, and the "Fuzhou Welfare Lottery Village" on the front of the store was seven golden dazzling eyeballs.

The welfare lottery is a proud thing that Cui Wenqing proposed, seeing that the imperial court really put it into practice, he was naturally very happy, and hurriedly walked over to understand the situation, but saw Fugu Chen County Cheng standing on the stage at the door to explain the specific situation of the welfare lottery, although the voice was boiling, but Chen County Cheng's full voice in the middle of the year still came into Cui Wenqing's ears:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the issuance of welfare lottery is the decision of the imperial court to deal with the floods in Jiangnan Province, to help the homeless people, and it is also a magnificent move to relieve the people in the water, according to the deployment of the political hall, today the welfare lottery stores in our Fuzhou are also open for business at the same time, the welfare lottery adopts a combination of play, from one to thirty a total of thirty numbers to choose seven numbers to combine for a betting number, and the imperial court will draw seven numbers from the thirty numbers, as long as the order of the numbers is consistent, It is to win, can be exchanged for the corresponding jackpot, and each lottery ticket costs thirty Wen, allowed to buy more, in order to prevent unscrupulous people from forging lottery tickets, the government will be stamped with a special seal for each lottery ticket, so there will never be malicious imitation, in addition to the lottery issuance cycle of every five days, the fifth and tenth of each month on time, as long as the lottery wins, the imperial court will cash in the bonus. ”

A seat to the point,The people all applauded,Many people have poured into the welfare lottery issuing stores,Scrambled to start buying lottery tickets.

Cui Wenqing was greatly relieved, and secretly sighed that he had unintentionally done a great good thing, not only increasing taxes for the imperial court, but also helping the victims of Jiangnan Province who had no food and clothing, which was really the best of both worlds.

And each lottery ticket is priced at 30 Wen, which is only the value of two buckets of grain, and the price is more acceptable to the people.

At this time, Chen Xiancheng had already discovered Cui Wenqing, and hurriedly strode over, smiling and arching his hand: "I didn't expect Aunt Cui to come here, and the official has lost his distance." ”

Cui Wenqing shook his hand and smiled: "The clothing store run by Xia is next to it, and I saw that my neighbors were so lively, so I also came to join in the fun." ”

Chen Xiancheng smiled and said: "I see, but this official has heard a lot of gossip, it is said that the welfare lottery was first proposed by Aunt Cui, the court was shocked by such a suggestion, after some deliberation, it felt feasible, and it was implemented all over the country, in the final analysis, it is still your credit, uncle!" ”

As soon as they heard this, Cheng Shifei and the others were immediately stunned.

Cheng Shifei was the first to come back to his senses, and couldn't help laughing: "I always think that the welfare lottery is good, but I didn't expect it to come from my uncle's subordinates, haha, so to speak, uncle, you are still the inventor of the welfare lottery." ”

Cui Wenqing smiled modestly: "The inventor can't talk about it, in fact, I just put forward a simple idea and suggestion to Lord Fubi at that time, as for how to implement the welfare lottery process, it is completely the credit of the ministers of the imperial court." ”

"Even so, you're still amazing, uncle." Cheng Shifei sighed in admiration, and then slapped his hands and smiled, "Since it is what my uncle thinks, the welfare lottery is naturally the same, then I will go in and buy a few lottery tickets now, which can not only dedicate my own efforts to the victims of Jiangnan Province, but also maybe win the lottery." ”

Cui Wenqing smiled happily: "Go, go, I hope that Brother Cheng can really win the first jackpot since the issuance of the Welfare Lottery." ”

Cheng Shifei nodded, and hurriedly pulled Xu Rushui in.

Seeing their backs disappear into the crowd, Cui Wenqing couldn't help but smile and asked: "By the way, Chen Xiancheng, I don't know how the imperial court solved the problem of the timeliness of the lottery that I raised at the beginning?" After the lottery, is there any way to quickly spread the lottery results throughout the Central Plains? ”

Chen Xiancheng explained with a smile: "Don't hide it from my uncle, even if it is a horse running like a fly, it is impossible to spread the lottery results throughout the Central Plains in just a few days, so the imperial court An Shi Xianggong thought of a way, that is, to divide and implement." ”

"Divide and execute? Why? Cui Wenqing hurriedly asked curiously.

"The so-called division and implementation,That is, the imperial court will decentralize the power of the lottery,Take each state as the institution that issues the lottery,Take our Fuzhou as an example,All lottery tickets are sold by our Fuzhou Yamen,And the lottery is also opened in our prefecture,In this way,The lottery results can quickly spread throughout the state and county,The people can also quickly learn the lottery results."

Cui Wenqing thought about it, and couldn't help but praise: "An Shi Xianggong is the country's capable minister, take such a method, and the problem of lottery timeliness will be solved." ”

Chen Xiancheng smiled: "Not only that, the imperial court did not monopolize the interests of the welfare lottery issuance, the money earned to take the imperial court fifty percent, the state and county three percent, the county government two percent for distribution, I wait for the county government to do things, there is still a part of the money to take, naturally full of energy, the welfare lottery is also very supportive." ”

Cui Wenqing was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said: "The interests are evenly matched, the Quartet is win-win, and the means of the imperial court are really clever, so that the issuance of the welfare lottery will also be very smooth." ”
