Chapter 53 Ten Years of Taxation
A new gadget has appeared in Xianyang City, and the door to buy goods is not big. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is full of simple style, and the big plaque reads, "help the elderly, help the disabled, and help the young." A man with a happy face kept shouting: "With two pennies in hand, I dream of fifty yuan." You heard me right, and I didn't say it right. As long as you align seven balls, you can win a 50 grand prize! For just two pennies, you have a chance to take home the grand prize. Don't want ninety-ninety-eight, just two pennies. ......"This stall has been open for a long time, and generally the city fox society rats in Xianyang City will not let go of such a stall." Blackmailing is necessary, bullying is a must.
But since the opening of this stall called Double Color Ball, no one has dared to make trouble. Even the most vicious big brother has become respectful and polite when he arrives here. No one dares to make trouble here, not even to speak foul language.
If you don't know that this mess has a big background, you're stupid. There were a total of twenty such stalls in Xianyang City, and those familiar servants had already greeted each other. The idea of fighting these stalls is not much different from suicide. If you have a long idle life, you will go. Anyway, he was beaten to death, and the government didn't dare to take care of it.
The old and young masters watched at first, but one after another people came forward to buy. Every evening when the lottery is drawn, an official of the imperial court will stand in the venue to supervise. A large glass jar with a number of small balls, "whoa" and "whoa" are shaken, and one is counted as a number. There is not only a jackpot, but also a number of smaller prizes. Let's say you hit one basketball and three more red balls. Then congratulations, with the lottery ticket you can redeem five cents. Seeing that the ticket was paid, and then someone put a big word on the ticket with a big prize.
The old and young masters who saw the silver money were naturally happy, so they enlisted the help of countless volunteer propagandists. The two-color ball is red-hot, and it is so hot that the government has to send out messengers to maintain order. Every night there were horse-drawn wagons that carried cartloads of copper coins away. Some good deeds have observed, and found that after these carriages turned a few corners, they went directly to the side gate of Xianyang Palace.
Wu Laohan's family is the hardest family in Fang City, and his family was originally living a good life. The two sons were clever and capable, and as foot merchants, they shuttled around Daqin to sell goods. He also made a lot of money, but unfortunately he was attacked by bandits. Both brothers were killed by bandits, and the merchant who was traveling with him only had time to come back to report the news. Even the corpse capital has not been recovered!
The sky fell! The old wife was blind from crying, and she couldn't see clearly in broad daylight. The old man carried a blanket and tried to collect his son's body, but he didn't expect to have both people and money. In the end, he saved his life and came back, even if it was creation. Two ribs were broken alive, and because they were not treated in time, they left the root of the disease, and they could not work at all.
The burden of the whole family fell on the two daughters-in-law, who washed and sewed the clothes of the people in the city all day long. I got some money to buy rice and grain, but the house leak happened to rain overnight. The second daughter-in-law looks handsome, and she is taken by the second dog of the splashy king on the adjacent street. Eat and drink all day long, and talk sweetly. Not long after, the two hooked up and became adulterous. Later, he simply eloped, and the whole family searched all over Xianyang City, but they didn't find it.
This is a bitter daughter-in-law, and the whole family points to her alone. The day...... Don't mention it.
"Is this Wu Laohan's house?" A guy dressed in black and looking like an in-house servant knocked on Wu Laohan's door. The neighbors all came out curiously to see that since Wu Laohan's house was broken, no one had come to the door for a long time. What's going on today? There was a young man in the team, and at first glance, he was a rich and noble man. Otherwise, you must not have this temperament at a young age.
"Who are you looking for?" The door opened a crack, and Wu Laohan's head was exposed. Sallow complexion, gray hair. I was trembling when I walked, and I needed the support of my little grandson.
"Old man, the king has come to see you." The chamberlain accompanied the smiling face. He dared to guarantee that Wu Laohan had never seen such a sincere smiling face in his life.
"King!" The neighbors were all taken aback, what kind of person is the king, that is the heaven of our Great Qin, the immortal figure who lives in the Xianyang Palace. The people on the left and right were stupid on the spot, and Wu Laohan didn't know what to say. If the eyeballs turn white, there are signs of fainting. Fortunately, Qiandu rushed over with an arrow step, and pressed his finger among the old man. The old guy just woke up!
"Old man, you have a hard time. Lonely from the income of the two-color ball to take out the consistent money to you, the original intention of the two-color ball is to help the old and the disabled to help the young. Why, don't you invite Lone to go in and sit? Jing Er stepped forward and said softly to Wu Laohan.
"Hey, hey!" Wu Laohan's head was like a chicken pecking rice. While hurriedly opening the door, he turned around and ran inside, shouting like crazy: "The king is here, the king has come to visit our Wu family." ”
The house was low and dilapidated, and there was not a single decent household at all. The corner of the house has been stepped on, and you can see the sunny sky from the house. It's already the spring season, and the old woman on the bed is still covered with old sheepskin. There was an indescribable smell in the room, and it was weird that always made people's stomachs twitch.
Wu Laohan also knew that the smell in the house was not good, so he asked his daughter-in-law to put a small table in the yard. I borrowed coarse tea from a neighbor to entertain this distinguished guest whom he had never seen in his eight lifetimes.
The corner of the wall was already full of people, and the news of the arrival of the king was like a house sparrow with wings, which quickly spread throughout the entire Fang City and was spreading to the entire Xianyang City. It's rare for a noble person to step on a cheap ground, and if you don't say it, you must take a good look at what this king is like. The opportunity to observe the king up close, it is likely that this is only once in a lifetime.
tremblingly took over Jing Er's usual money, and Wu Laohan's family cried earth-shatteringly. From afar, I thought that Jing Er was killing someone, or robbing the Wu family's daughter-in-law or something.
"Neighbors, the original intention of the two-color ball is to help these elderly people who are living in difficulty. While giving everyone a hope of getting rich, he also cares for the elderly, children, and widows in Daqin. In the future, at the end of every month, Lone will visit the lonely elderly in the city, military families, and children who have no food and clothing. Let them suffer this way, it is the king who is lonely, who has not been good. I can only come up with this idea, hoping that the neighbors will buy more two-color balls. In addition to having a chance to win the jackpot, you can also do a lot of good deeds. Thank you here! After speaking, Jing Er bowed to the people inside and outside the courtyard.
With a "hula", people from near and far knelt down. Long live the king's cry, shouted Jing Er's tinnitus. Many people wept with gratitude, and now they were asked to carry explosive bags to blow up the bunkers, and no one hesitated.
When he returned to Xianyang Palace, Jing Er's ears had not stopped. But Jing Er was so excited that he had never felt so loved. Even if someone rebels now, maybe the people in Xianyang City will organize a rebel army to help them put down the rebellion.
"Qiandu, I didn't expect it to be like this today. Lonely in Xianyang is very popular, hehe! Yunhou's idea is really good, others can't come up with such an idea. He earned both popularity and money. Yunhou is really a genius, it's a pity! Jing Er sighed deeply. He was very satisfied with Yun Yue's idea.
Qiandu naturally knows who that other person is referring to, but the idea of a two-color ball. Before that, there had been no eons since Yao Shun, and God knows how Yunhou's head grew. Not to mention anything else, the income of the two-color ball in the past month alone has reached as much as 20,000. Looking at today's situation, next month's sales will be rolling king. When it comes to making money, this is an unbeatable good way to do it.
Now the people of Xianyang are grateful for the kindness of the king, saying that they want to die to repay the king. I heard that many people have signed up for General Wang Qian's new army, and they have already broken their heads. Qiandu naturally knew what to say at this time. Anyway, Jing Er will say whatever he likes to listen to, and without this cleverness, he would have been eliminated by this cruel court long ago.
"Yes! General Wang Qian's new army needs a large amount of money, and the two-color ball can just plug this hole. I hope that General Wang Jian will form an army sooner, and the eastern front will be hot. Yesterday, the lieutenant said that some of the Wei land he had captured might be lost, and he also said that he would personally go to the east to command the battle. How did the battle become like this, Lone remembered that Yunhou always won. Jing Erxu babbled that in fact, he didn't ask Qiandu. And just want to vent, there seems to be nothing that can't be said in front of Qiandu.
"The slave doesn't understand the things on the military front. It's just that if a person can always win battles, then there is a reason to win battles. If one opponent is weak, it is impossible for all opponents to be weak. If it is said that my Great Qin's soldiers are sharp, but when Yunhou was in Zhao State, he also led several horsemen and captured Prince Yan Dan in the army of ten thousand horses. The battle array is brave, but it can be seen by the slave maid. In the end, it is people who decide the war! ”
Jing Er looked back at Qiandu in amazement, and it was people who finally decided the war! Such philosophical words, which he hardly believed, came from the mouth of this eunuch. , when did this old boy speak so philosophically.
"Did you hear this, or did you come up with it yourself?" Jing Er asked in surprise. In his memory, Qiandu didn't seem to have read any books.
"Back to the king's words, this sentence was heard by the slave maid." Qiandu never tells lies in front of Jing Er.
"Oh!" Jing Er's expression was really like this. I know that your old boy heard it!
"Listen to whom?" Jing Er asked casually.
"A boy who serves an old slave!"
"What?" Jing Er almost didn't choke to death with a sip of tea.
"It is indeed a boy who serves the old slave, and his name is Zhao Gao, which is very clever." Qiandu said while helping Jing Er rub his back.
"Hurry up and bring him to see Lone!" Jing Eryi slapped Qiandu's hand away and said urgently. Could it be that there are also demons in Xianyang Palace? (To be continued.) )
