To a certain extent, he is actually the same as Wang Laowu who collects night incense. He is a pauper and wants to be rich very much.
Therefore, he knew how to make this Wang Laowu his guinea pig!
Sure enough, Wang Laowu was still timid at first, but when he heard that it would allow him to make more money, his expression immediately changed to surprise. He quickly knelt down and kowtowed, and said repeatedly: "Yes, yes!"
"Okay!" Emperor Chongzhen was very satisfied and said to him: "You go to the Ministry of Revenue to redeem the bonus first. I will send someone later to teach you how to do it!"
After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Wang Chengen and said, "Big companion, send someone to follow him and see where he lives."
"My slave, you obey!" Upon hearing this, Wang Cheng'en quickly agreed, then turned to Wang Laowu and said with a smile, "You are really like smoke rising from your ancestral graves, and your Majesty has to give you advice on how to make money!"
Not to mention, this kind of opportunity will definitely make others jealous to death.
Wang Laowu was speechless with excitement and kowtowed repeatedly.
Afterwards, Emperor Chongzhen no longer needed to drink the northwest wind on the Meridian Gate Tower, so he drove back.
As for Wang Laowu, he was led by a eunuch, down to the top of the city, and back to the Meridian Gate Square.
This is the first welfare lottery prize redemption, and according to Emperor Chongzhen’s instructions in advance, it must be held in a grand manner.
Ni Yuanlu, the Minister of Household Affairs, personally came forward to collect Wang Laowu's prize. Not only that, he also gave him a big red flower, rode a horse, and sent several people to send him home with blows and blows.
For a while, it was so beautiful.
Even those rich people who didn't care about a hundred taels of silver were filled with envy when they heard that he was so prominent.
"How virtuous and capable is this? He actually parades around the streets to praise his merits like the number one scholar. This... is this praising his merits?"
"Don't tell me, although it's not as grand as the No. 1 Scholar, it still looks like a 78-year-old! It's really the most majestic day, why?"
"Why? This must be luck! With great luck, even if you praise me, it doesn't seem to matter!"
"The key is that His Majesty has received him. If he performs better, wouldn't it leave a good impression on His Majesty?"
"Yes, if you win this special prize and your Majesty summons you, then you have to win the special prize no matter what!"
"How? Is it possible that you can hit it just because you want it? It depends on luck!"
"Stupid, if someone wins, wouldn't it be a hundred taels of silver? I'll pay two hundred taels to buy his special prize lottery ticket, okay?"
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe they also want to have a chance to meet the saint?"
"Then Young Master bought all the numbers, so he can always buy the special prize, right?"
"Hey, this is a good idea, but I don't know how much it will cost?"
"That's not easy. Just go back and let the accountant do the math!"
"..."
Not to mention, according to the current sales rules of the welfare lottery, a special prize, if you must win it, is more than 680 taels of silver. For ordinary people, it is definitely a lot of money. But for some wealthy people like Ming Dynasty
As far as I'm concerned, people are really willing to spend this money in exchange for a chance to meet the saint.
It's a pity that what they didn't know was that Emperor Chongzhen was very interested for the first time, so he came to the scene. The draw went smoothly again, and he personally met the lucky winner of the special prize.
Of course, Emperor Chongzhen didn't know that he could make money from an interview. Otherwise, when he was pressed for money, he might sell the opportunity to meet him. He could even clearly mark the price, how much a meeting would cost, and how long the meeting would last.
How much does it cost, how much does it cost to have a meal with the emperor, etc.
Maybe Emperor Chongzhen could use this method to make a fortune!
If it’s too troublesome to have too many people, you can also use an auction, right?
Now that the lottery draw is over, the lottery notice from the Ministry of Revenue has been posted. At the same time, the legend about Wang Laowu has also spread over time.
It can be said that during the Lantern Festival in the 17th year of Chongzhen's reign, the hottest topic was the welfare lottery.
"Have you heard? That man named Wang Laowu bought a welfare lottery ticket. He only spent five cents and won the special prize!"
"His luck is also very good. Five cents was exchanged for one hundred taels of silver!"
"No, his good luck cannot be measured by money! He won the special prize and got the opportunity to meet the saint, and the most important thing is, do you know what it is?"
"What? Say it quickly!"
"It is said that he has received advice from His Majesty and is going to make a fortune!"
"What do you mean? Isn't he just a night scent collector? How can Your Majesty give you advice?"
"I don't know. Anyway, I heard that His Majesty was in a good mood at that time, so I gave him some advice and said there was a way to make more money than his original method of collecting night incense!" Gu
"This... Your Majesty, does he know everything?"
"That's not true. Your Majesty is the True Dragon Emperor, and Emperor Taizu has given guidance. Now those rare and useful opportunities that can make a lot of money all came from His Majesty's mind!"
"So, this Wang Laowu is really lucky, such good luck!"
"No! I'm wondering if I have such good luck because I have been dealing with shit too much.
"Why, is it possible that you want to learn something?"
"..."
Suddenly, countless people were envious and jealous of Wang Lao Wu. The name Wang Lao Wu, which few people knew at first, spread throughout the capital and became almost a household name. Even the eldest daughter in the boudoir knew it.
Got it!
In later generations, winning big prizes was kept secret, and ordinary people had no idea who won the big prize.
But this time in the Ming Dynasty, it was completely the opposite.
Of course, under ordinary circumstances, there will definitely be relatives and friends who come to borrow money; maybe there are others who want to take advantage of the one hundred taels of silver.
However, Wang Laowu's situation is different.
Not only did he meet the emperor, but there were also eunuchs who followed him back. It is said that His Majesty will give him some advice when he comes back.
With this level, who would dare to take Wang Laowu's idea!
The changes brought about by winning the special prize are naturally huge.
For example, Wang Laowu, who was originally disliked by others, would pinch their noses when they saw him. When they see Wang Laowu again, they are so friendly. From a distance, they say "Master Wang, Master Wang"
shouted.
Wang Laowu went to buy some decent clothes to change. After all, he had to deal with the people in the palace later, so he couldn't wear the same clothes as before. As a result, the shopkeepers of the tailor shop rushed to let him buy it in their own shop, and even
It’s to the point where it’s free of charge.
The merchants are smart after all, and they are not at a loss. Not only can they take advantage of Wang Laowu's luck, but they can also publicize that Wang Laowu, the winner of the special prize, all buys clothes in their store, and the room is full of luck!
Wang Laowu is an old man, and no one looks up to him. He is alone. But now, those who come to talk to matchmakers have to cross the threshold, and they have to queue up at the door.
In short, Wang Laowu changed his destiny because of a welfare lottery ticket. He was talked about by the people of the capital and became a myth in the capital!
These situations were known to Ni Yuanlu, the Secretary of the Ministry of Household Affairs, and he immediately arranged for people to increase efforts to spread the word. This also gave him greater expectations for the second phase of lottery sales.
According to the regulations of Emperor Chongzhen, it is once every half month.
After he summarized the experience of selling this welfare lottery for the first time, he reported it to Emperor Chongzhen. After receiving the approval, he could carry out the second sale. This was agreed in advance.
Because the sales of this welfare lottery will be promoted to the capitals of the two capitals and thirteen provinces, the sales proceeds will be used to build new schools, recruit school-age children, hire teachers, and teach school children to read and read. This whole set of things must be done in the capital first.
after actual operation.
As for Emperor Chongzhen, he was also busy, trying to fulfill his promise to Wang Laowu.
No, after he returned from Meridian Tower, he took out his cell phone and contacted Liu Weichao while he was in a mood.
But it was a pity that Liu Weichao did not pick up right away. Instead, he waited for about half an hour before Liu Weichao came back to him.
As soon as the video was connected, Liu Weichao said to him a little embarrassed: "I'm so sorry, I was on the phone just now and didn't notice the video communication request. I only found out after hanging up!"
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he immediately laughed and said: "I thought I would get some luck, but I didn't expect that this luck turned out to be that you happened to call me when I initiated a video communication with you!"
"Ah?" After hearing this, Liu Weichao immediately shook his head and said, "No, when you communicated via video, I had already been on the phone for a while. I didn't just call you."
"What?" Emperor Chongzhen said in surprise when he heard this, "Did something happen?"
To make such a long phone call, there must be something very important, and it is likely to be a difficult problem that is difficult to solve. Otherwise, it would definitely not take so long.
When Liu Weichao heard what he said, he was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said: "What can happen to this Chinese New Year!"
"Then why did you make such a long phone call?" When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he was a little confused and asked in confusion.
After hearing this, Liu Weichao said a little embarrassedly: "I just had a casual chat with Zhang Juan. Her mother called her and she hung up."
"What?" Emperor Chongzhen couldn't help being shocked when he heard this.
He knew who Zhang Juan was.
Isn't it just a woman who has to make such a long phone call and has so much to say?
To be honest, Emperor Chongzhen was a little confused.
But after all, he didn't care much about women's affairs. If there was something on his mind, he quickly added "Oh" and then got down to business.
