She only wants to do infrastructure construction

Chapter 159 Opening of the Welfare Workshop

Leaving Xiao Jiujiu in Xiao Jiuxi's heart aside, at least Li Yewu's insomnia has been resolved.

Recently, however, new problems have emerged.

As Li Yewu's belly got bigger and bigger, her legs and feet would cramp occasionally, especially when she slept until midnight, she would always be woken up suddenly by the pain.

Originally, it is normal for pregnant women to have cramps, and the male family members or maids just need to take good care of them.

However, the two of them still had the symbiosis king Gu, so Xiao Jiuxi accepted all the pain that Li Yewu suffered one second before and the next second.

One is pregnant, two are suffering, and no one is left.

In the end, Xiao Jiuxi asked Zi Cui to take care of Li Yewu personally. He even felt that he couldn't do it alone, and wanted to buy more maids. He had no other requirements, as long as he took good care of Li Yewu wholeheartedly.

But this idea was rejected by Li Yewu. As an independent woman, she doesn't need the maidservants to hug her.

The life of the two of them was so ordinary. During the day, Xiao Jiuxi went to the factory in the northern suburbs to inspect the factory. When he came back in the afternoon, he took a walk around the Taihe City Welfare Center to buy calligraphy flowers before going home.

Speaking of this, it was said before that Patriarch Mu's gambling house was taken over by Li Yewu.

Li Yewu did not continue the original business of the casino, and even cleaned up all the gambling things in it.

The hearts of the people who work in this casino are sympathetic, just when everyone was packing up their things and preparing to leave, the princess appeared.

"Where are you guys going?"

Everyone was taken aback. The shopkeeper was pushed out as a temporary representative. He said with a smile on his face, "Hasn't the princess already banned the gambling house? We dare not add trouble to the princess and are planning to leave."

Li Yewu smiled: "Who said I want to ban the gambling house? I just want to transform the gambling house. Of course, if you want to find another job, you can stay. If you have no place to go, just stay."

"We...don't have to leave?" Everyone was flattered.

"But... that's all we know..."

They can only play regular gambling games, but the people from Wang Hao have already cleaned up these things for me, so what else can they do?
Li Yewu smiled: "This is the purpose of my visit today. From today on, Dafu Gambling Workshop will be renamed as Taihe City Public Welfare Workshop. The purpose is no longer to make money first, but to use it for the people."

"???" Everyone was bewildered.

It's the first time I heard that the casino can take from the people and use it to the people. What does this mean?
Li Yewu also knew that they would not be able to understand just by talking, and it would be faster to give the result directly.

So she took out the long-lost handwritten version of the PPT, and introduced the planning and operation process of the Taihe City Public Welfare Workshop project to everyone.

In fact, this is equivalent to the modern Welfare Lottery Center, but the gameplay changes to guessing characters and shooting Gu.

As the name suggests, Guessing Characters is similar to guessing lantern riddles. Each issue will have a topic related to ancient people. People can buy an ancient person according to this hint.

Those who guess correctly can share the 500 taels in the prize pool. When the prize pool exceeds 500 taels, the money will be used for the construction of public facilities, or to improve people's livelihood and so on.

Shooting Gu is to guess numbers, and those who guess a series of numbers can share the prize pool, and the bonus is also 500 taels.

The staff here are mainly responsible for collecting money and distributing invoices, 10 pennies at a time.

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but widen their eyes.

"Can this... make money?"

10 coins at a time, only 500 taels in the year of the monkey...

Before Li Yewu could answer, the shopkeeper interrupted them, "Didn't you hear what the princess said? This is a public welfare cause! Talking about making money is not vulgar."

"Uh...that's true too." Everyone apologized with a guilty conscience, but they were still not very optimistic about this event.

Li Yewu didn't care, she just said that when she finished the tools and content of calligraphy and Gu shooting, the public welfare workshop would be able to open.

I have to say that there is an advantage of the ancient superiors. She and Xiao Jiuxi are the kings here, and they can do whatever they want without getting anyone's approval.

This is not possible in modern times, let alone want to open a lucky lottery, even if you want to open a supermarket, there are still a lot of formalities that need to be filled out.

At this time, she gave an order, and countless people rushed to the welfare workshop.

Within three days, Taihe City Public Welfare Square officially opened for business.

Compared with the past when there were always thugs guarding the door, and the inside was full of everything, the public welfare workshop should not be too small and fresh.

Those concealed curtains and doors and windows that have been closed all year round are all opened, and it looks like a teahouse when you look inside. There are many square tables and chairs, which looks like a big teahouse.

People have long been informed that the gambling house renovated by King Shang's Mansion will reopen today. Out of support for King Chang and Princess Wang, everyone came to join the casino even if they didn't like it.

After all, I have made a lot of money during this period, and it seems reasonable to give back a little to the prince and concubine.

But when they came here, they suddenly found that this place was completely different from the casino in their impression.

Not only is the environment quiet and elegant, but the waiter in the shop has also changed from fierce to considerate and gentle, and even the gambling tables have changed.

There is a wine jar hanging above one of the counters, with two big characters written beside it: Zihua.

On the other counter is a weird wooden machine, in which you can see many dice, each with a number on it.

There are also two words on it: shooting Gu.

? ? ? ? ?

What kind of moth is this?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Just when everyone was in a fog, the shopkeeper appeared.

"Welcome everyone to the Taihe City Public Welfare Workshop. Today, our welfare workshop opened the day before, with a [-]% discount for all guests.

As long as you have 5 characters, you can participate in our word flower and shooting Gu games. If you guess correctly, you can share 500 taels of silver! "

"Wow! So many!"

"How do you play?"

Everyone's curiosity was immediately aroused, thinking that there is no one who can't get out of this welfare workshop, but it only costs 5 yuan?

Sure enough, it has to be the king and concubine, which is too conscientious.

Everyone cheered and took out money and said they would participate in the event.

The shopkeeper patiently introduced the rules to them. The word guessing is a single-day draw at noon, and the Gu shooting is a double-day draw at noon.

Zihua, each issue will determine an ancient person, and set a clue based on this ancient person.

This clue will be posted on Welfare Square three days in advance, and interested people can come and have a look and guess.

As for shooting Gu, a number will be shaken out of the machine every issue, this has no technical content, it all depends on luck.

However, in order to make a better guess, Wang Hao has narrowed the range, the number is only 1-24, which is equivalent to 24 solar terms.

Everyone was eager to try it.

The shopkeeper didn't expect these people to be so active, and was quite flattered.
