Feng Jue World: The Fifth Miss of the Genius Xiang Shi

Chapter 279 National Event 3
"Yes, lottery activities can also raise funds. The lottery activity is very simple. For example, rich people who donate money have a chance to draw a lottery in the box. You can put the reward in the box, and whoever donates money can touch it One, setting a special prize, such as being an official, will definitely stimulate the rich to come to the prize."

As soon as Yunshuang finished speaking, the faces of several people changed drastically, including the emperor's face.Selling an official is a national taboo, and it is absolutely impossible.

Yunshuang was sweating, thinking that she must have said something wrong.

"If you think the special prize is inappropriate, you can replace it with an imperial plaque or something. I think that reward should be very attractive!"

"Okay, okay! Who said women are inferior to men! The number one scholar in Jinke is nothing more than that!"

The emperor applauded Yunshuang first, and Yunshuang's performance greatly exceeded his expectations.

"Pass it to the master!"

The emperor immediately ordered the Taifu to be recruited. The Taifu also has the identity of a recorder, and records all kinds of things in history.

"Ai Qing, you must memorize every word of this girl!"

"Yes!"

Taifu finished preparing the pen and paper, and looked at Yunshuang very seriously.The two old ministers also listened attentively, apparently they had heard a lot of new things just now, which they were not familiar with at all.

Seeing so many people paying attention to her, Yunshuang didn't feel embarrassed at all, instead she spoke with open heart.

"The country is short of money and I still have many ways to raise funds, but they are effective in a short period of time, but they will become a criticism in the long run."

"Speak, am I listening?"

The emperor doesn't care whether it is a long time or a short time, as long as it can solve the current problem, it is a good method.In addition, the decision-making power is in his hands, and Yunshuang's various suggestions will eventually be brought to the court for discussion by him.So whether it was the emperor or the ministers, they were very curious about where Yunshuang came up with so many strange ideas.The emperor also checked Yunshuang's background. What's wrong with a very ordinary girl from a rich family?The emperor has been puzzled.

"Well, my method is called lottery."

"Lottery tickets?"

When several people asked, Tai Tu had already recorded the word lottery.

"That's right, the government can print a lot of paper with numbers, make sure that the number on each paper is different, and then distribute it for free. Let's start the demonstration in Bianliang City, and everyone can get one. Then set a date to draw the prize, The government can draw winning numbers through special methods. For example, set up a roller, let many small balls with numbers roll in it randomly, and a set of numbers will fall down. This set of numbers is the winning number. The government can reward the winner with a house such as."

"No, isn't this a loss?"

The emperor listened and immediately came out to refute.Printing for free, sending back the house for free, no matter how you calculate it, you will lose money, how can you raise funds?
Yunshuang took a breath and began to explain patiently.

"Of course it's not free. We just let one person taste the sweetness, and then you can publicize his deeds. Then charge a little more money for each lottery ticket, and increase the rewards and awards. There must be many people in this way." Will come to buy."

"This is gambling!"

The Minister of Finance immediately pointed out the essence. People in the Western Song Dynasty don't hate gambling, but they don't like gambling either. If the government wants to engage in gambling, it has to be carefully considered.

"Grandpa Minister, this is called a lottery. It should be separated from the gambling of a few people."

Yunshuang had to correct his point of view, thinking that the lottery is legal, how can it be compared with gambling?
