Chapter 70: Covetous
Because he was too tired on the first day, and for some reason Zhang Xu was reluctant to recruit more people, the disciples in the Iron Sword Sect did not return to the academy after eating, and fell asleep one by one.
Ji Xian'er naturally wouldn't sleep in this kind of place, and Zhang Xu personally sent her and Lin Xi to the academy.
"I'm not coming tomorrow. On the way, Ji Xian'er said softly. She is a princess, and she can't stay in this place every day.
"Why don't you come, the Guardian of the Forest?" asked Zhang Xu.
"What, are you still afraid that someone will make trouble?" Ji Xian'er glanced at Zhang Xu.
"It's too profitable, it's more than 800,000 spirit stones a day, it will definitely be coveted, if someone is looking for trouble, I'm afraid my little arms and legs won't be able to parry. Zhang Xu smiled bitterly.
Even he didn't expect to make so much money, and the monks seemed to be crazy, scrambling to buy lottery tickets for the illusory chance of winning the jackpot.
"Do you want me to come to this kind of place every day?" Ji Xian'er frowned.
"You don't need to do it every day, this business can't last long, maybe you have to stop after a few more days. After the passion, there will not always be so many people who come to buy lottery tickets. But these days we have to prevent anyone from making trouble. Princess, I don't know much about the situation in Zhongzhou, do you think anyone will covet our business?"
Will anyone covet it?" Ji Xian'er frowned and thought about it, and had to sigh lightly: "Yes, this business is too big, not that I can completely cover it." ”
In the face of this huge benefit, Ji Xian'er can't guarantee that some people will not be tempted, she is just a princess, and she has no power, several princes, clan elders, which one of them has much greater power than her......
In the face of huge interests, family affection is really fragile, and Ji Xian'er, as a member of the royal family, clearly knows how thin the royal family's family affection is......
"In that case, princess, there is a proposal below, let's make a few more days, we might as well hand over this business to the imperial court and to the Son of Heaven, what do you think?" Zhang Xu asked tentatively.
The money made from this business made Zhang Xu's heart tremble, and he seemed to see great danger waiting for him ahead. As Ji Xian'er, no one can help her, but Zhang Xu himself is very likely to fall into the abyss because of this business, if he is too greedy, I'm afraid even Ji Xian'er can't save himself.
"Hand it over to your father, are you willing to do it?" Ji Xian'er glanced at Zhang Xu in surprise.
"Money is just something outside the body, and there is nothing to be reluctant to. Zhang Xu said solemnly, and his heart was dripping blood.
"Well, to-morrow I will go to my father and tell him about it. Ji Xian'er nodded.
"Can you talk about it two days later, let's earn a few more days of spirit stones." Zhang Xu hurriedly said.
"Hehe" Ji Xian'er glanced at him funny, and Zhang Xu couldn't help laughing.
"You go back first, I'll send you the Royal Forest Guards tomorrow, with them, no one dares to make trouble casually!" When she arrived at the gate of the academy, Ji Xian'er turned around and said goodbye to Zhang Xu.
"I'll see you go in, I'll go. Zhang Xu said subconsciously.
Ji Xian'er gave him an angry look, pulled the little Lori and turned around and went in.
"Brother in charge, see you tomorrow!" little Lori shouted and waved goodbye to Zhang Xu.
Yesterday was too busy, and everyone was woken up by the sound of banging on the door the next day, and through the crack in the door, countless monks were waiting outside, all waiting to buy lottery tickets.
I hurriedly ate something to fill my stomach, opened my doors, and the busy day began again.
Not long after the sale, a huge prize was opened, and an ordinary middle-aged monk won the huge prize of 100,000 spirit stones, which immediately shocked everyone, and countless monks rushed to tell each other, triggering greater enthusiasm for buying.
In the corner of the square, a very dignified middle-aged monk stood quietly, watching the crowd surging in front of the lottery shop.
A young monk hurriedly squeezed through the crowd, stood in front of the middle-aged monk, and handed over two lottery tickets.
Holding the lottery ticket and looking at it with enough spiritual power, "Huh!" The middle-aged monk was very surprised.
"Coated with star grass powder, I'm afraid the Yuanying Monk can't see through it. The young monk explained.
"It's interesting, Xiao He, what is this lottery business, and what are you inquiring about?" the middle-aged monk asked.
"Back to the shopkeeper, my subordinates only came yesterday afternoon, and I have been looking at it for so long today, just what I saw with my own eyes, there are fifty or sixty boxes of spirit stones in the inner courtyard, each box contains ten thousand spirit stones, and there are five or six hundred thousand in more than half a day!" said the young monk Xiao He breathlessly.
"Eighty or nine hundred thousand spirit stones that day?" the middle-aged monk gasped, "How much profit does our Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce make in a year? Fifty or sixty million spirit stones, this, if this lottery ticket is sold for a year, wouldn't it be more than the money that our entire Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce makes?"
You keep staring here, I'll go back and report it!"
......
On the East Peak Mountain, the continuous buildings stretch from the foot of the mountain to the halfway up the mountain, there are hundreds of buildings, this is where the Zhongzhou Chamber of Commerce is located, and it is also the general meeting of the Dazhou Chamber of Commerce!
The middle-aged monk walked all the way up the mountain, and entered a cave in the top of the complex.
"How much money can you make in one day?" said Zhuge Wanfang, the master of the Tianshu Hall of the Chamber of Commerce, in shock.
"Back to Zhuge Hall Master, it's just a little more!" the middle-aged monk said respectfully, and then his eyes flashed with greed, "Hall Master, this kind of money-making business should be in the hands of our Chamber of Commerce." ”
Zhuge Wanfang glanced at him coldly: "You also said that the store belongs to Princess Yueyao, what's the matter, can we still rob it?"
"The shop was opened by Princess Yueyao and another foreign monk, Princess Yueyao is just that, why is that foreign kid doing such a business! Hall master, we should talk to the eldest prince and take down this business." The middle-aged monk said eagerly.
"I have my own opinions on what to do, you go down first. Zhuge Wanfang said lightly.
......
In the North Palace of Zhongfeng, a big Tuesday prince Ji Xiang wearing a dark color suit is dancing a sword in the courtyard. A monk in a gown hurried into the courtyard.
"Wuyun, what's the matter?" Ji Xiang asked with a smile as he threw the magic sword to the palace guard.
"Your Highness, a lottery shop has appeared outside the East Peak. The strategist Qin Wuyun told him in detail about the situation of the lottery shop.
"It's so profitable?" Ji Xiang said in surprise, then shook his head, "But forget it, after all, it's Xian'er's industry, and you can't covet your sister's industry as an elder brother. ”
Qin Wuyun hurriedly said: "Your Highness, if you don't start, it will be cheaper Your Highness, he won't have so many scruples!"
Ji Xiang smiled: "Big brother, he likes to plug in everything, but Xian'er is not easy to mess with, let's just watch the excitement on the side." ”
"Hundreds of thousands of spirit stones are earned every day! if we take advantage of this business, how many monks can we recruit!" Qin Wuyun sighed.
