Mineral deposits are not renewable resources and will become less and less as they are mined.

So when he heard that Ying Feiyu would use mineral deposits to make up for this part of the expenses, Ying Zheng was actually not too optimistic!

But we couldn't leave those old people and orphans alone, so I had my own considerations when it came to touching this kid, so I didn't say anything more!

As expected, this guy really has other ideas!

"There are currently 40 million people in our country, Da Qin. Adding in the Western Regions, there are almost more than 400 million people. If each person pays one penny, how much will it cost?"

However, Ying Feiyu did not answer the question.

"Four hundred million people, one penny each? That's... four hundred thousand gold?"

Ying Zheng held the child in his arms and made some calculations in his mind.

"That's right! The ministers have made rough calculations before. The annual cost of nursing homes and orphanages is about one million gold. If everyone in the world is willing to spend two or three gold every year, the cost of nursing homes and orphanages will be

That’s enough!”

Ying Feiyu said with a smile.

"Let everyone in the world spend two or three cash every year to support the elderly and children...?"

Ying Zheng thought carefully for a long time and said cautiously: "Although two or three coins per person is nothing, isn't it equivalent to a disguised tax? I'm afraid the people have complaints in their hearts!"

"What if you use these two pennies to win a chance to get ten thousand gold?"

Ying Feiyu held his head high and showed a confident expression.

"What do you mean? Please tell me more clearly?"

Within a few words, Ying Feiyu aroused Ying Zheng's curiosity, staring at him intently, and even handed over the child in his arms.

Ying Feiyu carefully took the swaddling clothes and looked at the yawning little Yiyi inside, her heart almost melted!

"You kid, don't just look after the child. Tell me quickly. What do you mean by this?"

His curiosity was aroused, and the boy kept silent again and teased his daughter. Ying Zheng immediately became unhappy.

"It's nothing special, it's just what it means!"

Ying Feiyu was busy teasing the child, so he really didn't have the time to explain to him in detail, so he just said a few perfunctory sentences.

"What do you mean by two cents and ten thousand gold? Do you want all the people to join the business and earn ten thousand gold with two cents?"

Ying Zheng frowned and made random guesses.

"Quickly pull it down. What kind of business can you invest in and earn ten thousand gold with only two pennies?"

As soon as these words came out, Ying Feiyu's eyes almost popped out of his head in shock.

Everyone said that he had the ability to turn stone into gold, but even so, he didn't have much business except leading the people to invest two pennies and earn ten thousand gold!

If so, why would he bother with cars, ships, newspapers, and textiles?

Wouldn't it be enough to invest a few more pennies?

You can't even dream of such a good thing, right?

"Then what do you mean? Hurry up and say it!"

Ying Zheng deliberately made a fierce face and shouted sharply.

"well……!"

Seeing that Daddy Scumbag's nose was not a nose and his face was not a face, Ying Feiyu had no choice but to leave his daughter to the care of the wet nurse and explained to Daddy Scumbag, "My son plans to open an additional business in the bank!"

"Open additional business? What business?"

"Lottery!"

"Lottery ticket...? What is this? But it's almost the same as a banknote?"

"No, no, no! That's too far!"

Ying Feiyu shook his head and smiled, "The lottery ticket is a series of numbers, consisting of six ordinary numbers and one special number...!"

After explaining the general gameplay of the lottery to Ying Zheng, he continued: "The price of each lottery ticket is two cents. If you win the grand prize, it will be ten thousand gold, followed by ten gold, one gold, ten cents and five cents.

Money!"

"Keep talking!"

Ying Zheng nodded, listening with great interest.

"My son named the lottery Welfare Lottery, which means welfare! Every time people buy a lottery ticket, they can donate a penny to orphanages and nursing homes! In this way, people not only donate money, but also get rich and get rid of poverty.

Opportunity, Father, will anyone buy it?"

Ying Feiyu raised his eyebrows at him and smiled evilly.

"It is possible to earn ten thousand gold with just two pennies. The temptation is indeed not small! A lot of people will definitely buy it!"

Not to mention ordinary people, even Ying Zheng was itching to see if he was lucky.

"Lottery stations have been opened all over Daqin. Wherever there are banks, there are lottery stations! There are 400 million people in Daqin. Excluding the elderly and children, there are 200 million people. Each person buys a bet, which is 400 million Wen, that is,

Four hundred thousand gold! In other words, two hundred thousand gold will be donated every time!"

"And the remaining two hundred thousand gold is more than enough to pay for the people's winnings!"

"The lottery draws every three days! The lottery draws ten times every month, and the people will donate two million gold! Even if the number of people buying is less than half, there will still be one million gold available every month! This money is enough to pay for nursing homes and orphans

All expenses of the hospital do not need to use mineral resources at all!"

"As for the rest, we can set up a foundation to help other people in need! For example, those who are seriously ill and have no money to see a doctor! And those whose families have been affected by disasters and have special circumstances!"

"In a word, take it from the people and use it for the people. The court will not move a cent of this money!"

Ying Feiyu expressed his thoughts.

This set is almost copied from the lottery of later generations.

It's just that there have been corresponding changes, but the general meaning is still the same!

"What do you think, Father?"

He finished speaking for a long time. Seeing that Ying Zheng was still stunned, he waved his hand in front of his eyes to interrupt his thoughts.

"Um?"

A big hand waved twice in front of his eyes, and Ying Zheng suddenly woke up, "Did you really say what you said were all taught by your master?"

"Of course, otherwise, how could I think of so much?"

Ying Feiyu smiled confidently, showing a mouthful of white teeth.

"Yes! If your kid came up with this, it would be too scary!"

Ying Zheng said blankly.

This move not only solves the supply problem of nursing homes, but also gives the people an opportunity to get rich, allowing them to spend their money willingly.

Even if there are ten issues per month and each issue is kept, it is only twenty coins per month. To today's people, it is really nothing.

Moreover, it is impossible not to win once in these ten times, at least you have to win the lowest award!

This way, you spend less!

They did spend less, but when combined, it was a very huge number!

"According to what you said, the lottery will be drawn publicly in Xianyang every issue, and then published in the newspaper! The ticket holder can redeem the prize at any bank within two months, but what if someone takes advantage of the loophole and forges the lottery ticket within these two months?

How can we do it? We can’t make lottery tickets as anti-counterfeiting as banknotes, right? That would be very costly!”

After Ying Zheng was shocked, he also found the loopholes.

He felt that the time required to redeem the prize was too long, which could easily allow those with evil intentions to take advantage of the situation!

"Father, have you forgotten what the seal is for? The lottery paper does not need to be too strictly guarded against counterfeiting, as long as you put more effort into the seal!"

Ying Feiyu gave the solution directly without even thinking about it.

There are many carving masters in this era, and the things they carve cannot be imitated by ordinary people. As long as the corresponding seal is stamped on the lottery ticket, the banker checks it, and the payment is normal!

"Hahaha! You are quite thoughtful...!"
