Daughter of the prosperous age: Don't pretend to be stupid

Chapter 318 Exchange Conditions (9)

After breakfast, a five-foot-high platform was set up in front of Zuixianlou, the tallest and largest restaurant in the capital. On the high platform were five identical large boxes, and on each box were placed 10 identical iron balls.

After a burst of noisy firecrackers, an official from the household department came to power and popularized a new term for the people in the capital: lottery, and at the same time popularized the game of lottery for the people in the capital.

Select a number from the nine numbers of ten thousand, thousand, hundreds, tens and ones 0--9, as a bet, and each bet is ten coins.Those who have selected all five numbers in the correct order will get [-] coins for each bet, and those who get the first four and the last four will get [-] coins for each bet...

The prizes are drawn every quarter of an hour, and those iron balls are the props used for the prize draw, and the drawer is drawn by the person who buys the most bets in the current period, that is, he draws a ball from each of the five boxes.In this way, you don't have to worry about the number being determined by default or being tampered with.

Get rich overnight, fair and just.

It is the selling point of the lottery and the focus of attracting people.

Since it was sponsored by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and each lottery ticket was sold for ten cents, which was much cheaper than going to a gambling shop, some ordinary people were tempted and couldn't help but spend ten cents to choose five numbers.

Ten Wen for a thousand Wen, this business is quite cost-effective.

And as the first first prize was drawn out and the winner took away the prize money, the word lottery swept every corner of the capital in less than a meal, occupying the No. 1 topic list among the people.

After an hour, the place where lottery tickets were sold was crowded with people.

When Prince Rong saw this scene, he couldn't contain his excitement.Immediately, he quickly ordered people to set up two sales outlets, and at the same time, he was even more surprised by Mo Wushuang's whimsical idea.

With the increase in the number of lottery draws and the number of purchasers, the guards continued to quietly move the silver into Zuixian Tower, and then shipped it out through the back door.

The sun was setting to the west, and when the emperor saw the news sent by Prince Rong and the literal amount of money, he stood up from his seat in shock.

The daily surplus of the capital alone has reached 5 taels of silver.

Although this number is a bit far from 100 million taels, it made the emperor's mouth so happy that he couldn't close his mouth.

There are hundreds of cities in Shengqi. If lottery tickets are sold in all these cities, it will only take a blink of an eye to collect 100 million taels of silver.

While the people in the capital were excited by the appearance of the lottery, the queen stood on the Qiongyu platform pinching the prayer beads for a day.

Today is an important day for them, and you must not go wrong.

"Hurry up, hurry up."

"Take it easy, cover the box immediately, and load the car!"

In the dark night, in a villa at the foot of the Dongshan Mountain outside the city, the lights were brightly lit, only the sound of urging and heavy footsteps could be heard.

Not far from this Zhuangzi, hundreds of people had gathered silently at some point, each with a big knife in his hand, with a murderous look, but they looked quietly from afar, as if they were waiting for someone.

Just after the sky had completely darkened, a group of fast horses stepped on the dust and came in front of the standing still team.

"Crack!" Following the uniform voice, hundreds of people knelt down to the visitor at the same time.

"Are you sure the things are still there?" A deep and mellow voice came, and it was the voice of King An.

"Back to the prince, everyone should be there. Today, only people go in and no one comes out." Someone replied.
