Zhao Bairen looked at Li Chengfeng and felt that this little guy who didn't have all his hair was really ignorant. He dared to say such words on such an occasion. But he had already said these words. Even as an emperor, he also There was no way to help Li Chengfeng get his words back.
Zhao Bairen smiled bitterly and said, "Then you can tell me?"
Li Chengfeng looked around and said: "Your Majesty, the law is not spread to the six ears!"
This sentence immediately caused a wave of curses in the court: "Huangkou boy, what did you say!!"
"I think you want to bewitch the emperor and do something lucky!"
"That boy, don't you know that the sky is high and the earth is high!"
"Your Majesty, please punish this son for his arrogance and rudeness!"
"Your Majesty, no! Once you open this mouth, there will definitely be a lot of people who want to flatter others and make big talk to deceive the world. They are lucky enough to use this as a way to get ahead. When the time comes, the government and the public will become ostentatious and make big talk. If this continues, it is unimaginable. !”
Faced with all these angry accusations and questions, Li Chengfeng just smiled and said nothing, as if he was confident and the old god was there. Zhao Bairen saw that the anger was hard to offend, so he pressed his temples and said: "You guys are making me have a splitting headache. Come on, Help me go back and have a rest, let’s break up the meeting like this today.”
All the ministers had no choice but to apologize in unison and retreat one after another.
After the morning court, Li Chengfeng pretended to follow the courtiers, deliberately keeping a distance from them, because he knew that the emperor would definitely look for him privately soon.
As expected, it didn't take long for a small yellow doorman to follow him, quietly came to Li Chengfeng, and whispered: "Little official, please stay."
Li Chengfeng turned around and saw a handsome young eunuch smiling at him to please him. Li Chengfeng smiled slightly and said, "What do you call this father-in-law?"
The little Huangmen hurriedly smiled and said: "How can I live up to the title of father-in-law? My surname is Shui. The junior officials can just call me Shui Ping'er."
Li Chengfeng smiled and said, "Then Mr. Shui Ping'er will lead the way." After that, he quietly handed over a banknote from his sleeve, and Shui Ping'er also calmly took it from the inside under the cover of his sleeve. When he came over, he was greatly moved.
Eunuchs have always been at the bottom of the contempt chain of the entire society. Although some of them can hold high positions and hold real power, this cannot prevent others from feeling contempt in their hearts. They may envy the power and status in the hands of eunuchs, but they will never I don't envy their status.
Many people find it difficult to maintain even a semblance of respect, let alone someone like Li Chengfeng.
Chunjiang Plumbing Duck Prophet, eunuchs are people who are at the core of the entire empire. How can they not know the preferences and tendencies of His Majesty the Emperor
Who is this little official in front of me? Eighty percent of this person is Da Qi's future son-in-law, the Prince Consort! Moreover, he is also an influential figure in the Lingshan sect, the third sect in the world. This time, he is the leader of the team participating in the world's best fighting conference!
Her Royal Highness the Princess has always been kind to others, but she was the only one who favored him! Not only that, Zhao Hanqing, Zhao Liexian, the prince and the prince all tried to win over him!
What is a proud man
This is the proud man of heaven!
There is no need for such a person to curry favor with himself, but he still stuffs money according to the rules. What does this mean? It shows that this little official is not the kind of arrogant, arrogant bastard.
The smile on Xiao Huangmen's face became more and more attentive. He led Li Chengfeng to the Yongshou Palace and whispered: "Your Majesty, the Crown Prince, His Royal Highnesses, the Grand Tutor, the Six Ministers, and the Five Ministers are all here. The junior officials should pay more attention to what they say. ."
Li Chengfeng nodded slightly at him, smiled, and walked in.
As soon as I entered the door, I felt a wave of heat coming over me. It was obvious that the palace had floor heating. Even though the floor was covered with a thick velvet blanket, you could feel a heat flowing through the soles of your feet when you stepped on it.
In this small hall, as Xiao Huangmen said, the core of both parties in the DPRK and China are present. Li Chengfeng stepped forward and was about to kowtow, when the emperor sitting at the top waved his hand and gestured to the eunuch next to him. They brought a chair for Li Chengfeng to sit down.
After Li Chengfeng paid homage to all the big guys in the field, he sat down. Emperor Zhao Bairen said: "Li Aiqing, although the teachings are not preached to everyone, there is always an exception for everything, right?"
Li Chengfeng just didn't want so many people to hear his method. Otherwise, if he said an idea, someone would jump out and chirp and pick and choose. Li Chengfeng felt that he couldn't help but perform a full martial arts show.
Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. I just think that the person just now is too talkative."
Zhao Bairen sighed and said: "Those literati who are full of food and have nothing to do, they are better than each other in finding faults, but it is useless to do practical things."
This sentence has a wide range of impact. Which one of you here does not regard himself as a scholar
Li Chengfeng didn't dare to answer these words. He pretended not to hear, watching his nose and heart, but the prince on the side took the initiative to come to the rescue.
The prince said: "Brother Li Xian, if you have any wonderful tricks, don't hide them anymore. You must know that if you hide them for a while, one more life will be lost!"
Li Chengfeng looked stern and said quickly: "Your Majesty, there are three ways to be a humble minister!"
Zhao Bairen was overjoyed: "Oh?" He thought it would be great if Li Chengfeng could say one thing, but he didn't expect that he could say three
No matter how unreliable it is, if one of the three is slightly more reliable, that’s okay!
Everyone was also refreshed. Prince Zhao Hanqing knew that Li Chengfeng's ability was not only in cultivation, so he listened most seriously. On the contrary, the oldest Zhang Datong and Prime Minister Yang He were seriously skeptical. They looked at Li Chengfeng. Chengfeng's eyes were full of disdain and contempt, but it was not easy to scold the emperor and the prince because of the face of the emperor. The other prime ministers and the six ministers also looked on with cold eyes, not believing that Li Chengfeng could solve such a dangerous situation.
Zhao Bairen said quickly: "Speak quickly, speak quickly!"
Li Chengfeng stretched out his index finger and said: "The first method is: gambling!" Then he raised his second finger and said: "The second method is: national debt! The third method is: auction!"
When everyone heard this, they were all at a loss. Only the Minister of Hubu slightly followed Li Chengfeng's train of thought, and he began to think thoughtfully.
Zhao Hanqing immediately asked: "What is gambling?"
Li Chengfeng said: "Bettors are also gambling in the country!"
Gamblers are also gamblers!
The people of Cheng'an are fond of gambling, and there are casinos everywhere, but the rest of Daqi is not much better, but the money earned by these casinos has fallen into the hands of local powerful and corrupt officials, and it has not benefited the court at all. Daqi Gambling has been banned many times, but to no avail.
As soon as these words were said, everyone's eyes immediately became more contemptuous. Prime Minister Yang He couldn't help but said: "This trend must not be allowed!!"
Zhao Hanqing was a little disappointed, but he still said: "Brother Xian, do you want to tax gambling?"
Li Chengfeng shook his head and said: "No, what I mean is: to hold gambling games in the official name of the imperial court and formulate new gambling rules. Firstly, it can gather the idle wealth of the people. Secondly, it can attract the attention of idle people. Thirdly, It can give people the hope of getting rich..."
Before Li Chengfeng finished speaking, Zhang Datong couldn't listen anymore. He said angrily: "Absurd! Ridiculous! What a child's talk!! Your Majesty..."
Li Chengfeng also answered immediately and said: "Your Majesty, Rong Chen, please finish your words."
Zhao Bairen was very disappointed, but he still said: "My dear, please tell me."
Li Chengfeng said: "The fundamental reason why gambling is harmful to people, causing people to lose their homes and make their wives and children separated, is that the desire to gamble cannot be controlled and the bets cannot be limited! If we hold a game with the official prestige of the imperial court, In gambling, everyone only needs to spend two copper coins to buy a set of six-digit betting numbers, and then place bets within a fixed time. All the purchased bets will go into the bonus pool, and six numbers will be pressed. The one with the correct number wins the first prize, and among two people, the first prize is shared by two people, and so on... "
At this point, everyone in the audience was stunned. Tutor Zhang Datong and Prime Minister Yang He were both very smart people. Although they had prejudices, they couldn't help but think deeply after hearing this. The more they thought about it, the more they thought about this method. wonderful.
Zhang Datong couldn't help but said: "How often?"
Li Chengfeng said: "One week, or half a month, don't do it too frequently, so as not to dry up the lake and fish."
Yang He said again: "What if no one wins?"
Li Chengfeng said: "The bonus will go into the bonus pool and accumulate as the bonus for the next round of lottery draws."
Zhang Datong is a scholar leader who is not very proficient in finance and economics. He sneered: "Then what benefit does this have to the court?"
Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "As the saying goes, if a thousand people buy it, it will be two thousand copper coins. If a thousand people buy ten bets, it will be twenty thousand copper coins, which is twenty taels. If there are one hundred thousand people who buy it, it will be twenty taels." Ten thousand people buy it, two million people, twenty million people buy it?”
Everyone gasped at this time. They were all human beings, well versed in the dark side of human nature. They knew that once this kind of thing came out, the bonus pool would start to accumulate, and it would soon accumulate to an astronomical figure. At that time, all People will go crazy!
Would you be reluctant to part with two copper coins to buy an opportunity to reach the sky in one fell swoop
Everyone exchanged looks with each other: This idea... seems feasible! !
The Minister of Hubu frowned and said, "But what if any lucky person wins? Wouldn't that mean making wedding clothes for others?"
Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "First of all, since it is a game hosted by the imperial court, the imperial court will naturally collect taxes, and the rest will go into the bonus pool. Secondly... when the bonus in the bonus pool is not won, the accumulated wealth will be If the wealth that can be mobilized by the imperial treasury accumulates too much and threatens the imperial expenditure, the internal personnel of the imperial court can use technical manipulation to win. At this time, on the surface, the identity of the person is not disclosed to the public on the grounds of protecting the identity of the person, but privately Completely nationalize this money..."
Yes, this is the Mark Six Lottery, the super killer weapon from time travellers!
Li Chengfeng couldn't do it before because he didn't have the conditions. If he did it, he would soon be imitated by others, and then the Mark Six Lottery would be everywhere, and then there would be nothing wrong with him.
Moreover, the matter of internal lottery winning has almost become an unspoken rule in modern countries, and Li Chengfeng said it with confidence.
But... this was the first time for others to hear about it. Everyone was dumbfounded and their eyes changed when they looked at Li Chengfeng!
I originally thought that cunning officialdom veterans like us were the ones who were always shameless, but I didn’t expect that Li Chengfeng, a young guy like you with big eyebrows and big eyes, would be so shameless!
I have never seen such a shameless person! !
