Three Kingdoms: From Hidden Lin to Great Wei Xiongzhu Chapter 473: The game is in the middle of the game, the people are the bait, and the fishing gentry
Chapter 473: The game is in the middle of the game, the people are the bait, and the fishing gentry
Ten thousand kilograms of grain are nothing to wealthy families.
But... it is enough to change his life for ordinary people, especially poor people like Wang Erzhu.
Buzz buzz buzz…
The people in the entire podium burst into buzzing sounds, and countless people looked at Wang Erzhu with envy. Once upon a time, Wang Erzhu was also one of the most laboring people in this chaotic world like them, but...
With this ten thousand kilograms of grain, it is no exaggeration to say that Wang Erzhu has already left most people behind.
During this period of soaring grain prices, 10,000 kilograms of grain were enough to make Wang Erzhu a veritable "big family"!
The continuous discussion and uproar in the crowd are enough to represent the mood of every onlooker.
Those who did not buy welfare lottery are upset and regretting...
Those who have purchased but have not been reflected and are looking for the rules behind these numbers!
only…
What rules are there?
Everything is just manipulated...
Even if it is a seemingly fair turntable, Cheng Yu has a hundred ways to transfer the numbers he needs.
certainly…
People in ancient times were still very simple...
On the official road from Langya County to Donghai County.
The horse team of Long Xiao Camp is moving forward, which is very close to Donghai County.
"Mr. Lu, there are merchants from Xia Pi City on this official road, and they are talking about it... It seems that Cheng Sima and Chenzhou Mu of Xia Pi City have already started selling lottery tickets."
Cao Xiu reported the information he had found along the way to Lu Yu.
"But..." Cao Xiu's brows slightly condensed. "I heard from them that yesterday the lottery earned more than 500 kilograms of grain, but spent more than 10,000 kilograms of grain from the treasury. In this way, this lottery seems to be
It's a loss!"
As soon as this statement comes out.
Lu Yu, who was sitting in the Siyu carriage, raised his lips slightly, revealing a faint smile.
"It's okay to pay for it... The so-called 'If you want to take it first, you must give it first'. If you don't pay it, who can see hope and light...who will be crazy about it?"
Lu Yu seemed very confident.
Since this incident was mentioned, Lu Yu directly thought of several families in Xia Pi City. "Didn't the letter from Cheng Sima last time specify the wealthy businessmen in Xia Pi City?
Target...especially the patriarch of the Zhao family."
At this point, Lu Yu paused.
"If nothing unexpected happens, he will definitely bring a group of Xia Pi City merchants to visit Cheng Sima... and then... ask for my visit!"
this…
Although I don’t know where Lu Yu’s confidence comes from, Cao Xiu has become accustomed to it.
Mr. Lu always does something strange. The final result, at least now, has never been made any mistakes. It is a bit exaggerated to say that he is putting it to death. At least... it can always be achieved in the impossible.
"possible!"
"Does Mr. Lu want to meet these merchants?"
Cao Xiu asked a question.
Lu Yu waved his hand directly. "No, the more they ask for a meeting, the less we will see each other... hanging them!"
Having said this, Lu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly. "The show has just begun. Since it is to raise food, it is naturally time to sell it!"
Just finished speaking...
"Young Master Lu, Donghai County is ten miles ahead..."
A crisp sound came...
It was Zhao Yun, who was riding a white horse. Before Lu Yu could speak, Zhao Yun continued: "The news came from Long Xiao Knight that the three young masters had arrived and are now waiting for Mr. Lu in Donghai County!"
Hmm...
Lu Yu's eyes opened in vain and muttered so quickly in his heart.
Unexpectedly, the three of them set out from Xu Ducheng toward this side, which was a little faster than the Long Xiaoying Camp. I guess it was a starry night trip?
Lu Yu's eyes blinked the baby's love.
At this moment, what he thought of was the name of "Three Cobblers"!
Working in the East China Sea...
It is impossible to do everything yourself...but don't... do these three cobblers with a spirit of study?
"Report..."
At this moment...dadada...a fast horse galloped over, and the horse team that reached Long Xiao Camp, immediately shouted, "Come here? But Lu Situ's horse team."
"That's right!" the leader of the Long Xiao Camp armored soldier replied.
Hearing the accurate reply, the knight turned over and dismounted and bowed, "After the order of the prefect of Donghai County, I came to tell Situ, the prefect brought the civil and military personnel of the city out of the city to greet Lu Situ!"
call…
Lu Yu was slightly surprised, what a big show.
Going out of the city to greet each other... The prefect of the Hou of Donghai County was also in a show of style.
Lu Yu asked curiously.
"Ask the knight, who is the current prefect of Donghai County?"
"Here!" Cao Xiu agreed and rode his horse forward. After a moment, Cao Xiu reported: "The current prefect of Xuzhou Donghai County is Hou Cheng from Taiyuan, Bingzhou!"
Well... Hou Cheng?
When Lu Yu heard this name, his eyes turned. Isn’t this the general of Lu Bu in the past?
Speaking of which, among the surrendered generals of Lu Bu who once recruited surrender on the Baimen Tower in Xiapi City, two distinct factions, "Protect Lu Bu" or "Kill Lu Bu"!
Among them, Zhang Liao, Gao Shun and Chen Gong are the "Protect Lu Bu" faction!
Hou Cheng, Wei Xu, Cheng Lian, and Song Xian clearly killed Lu Bu's sect. You should know that there are only a few people who steal the Red Rabbit Horse, the Fang Tian's Painted Gaulle, and the beast's face and head swallowing the chain armor.
At that time, Lu Yu used a plan... to "kill" Lu Bu, and let go of "Lu Bu" and balance these two factions... He never thought that the former general of Lu Bu, the Hou Cheng who "stealed the Red Rabbit Horse" in the past, was the "stealing the Red Rabbit Horse".
, Now... has become the prefect of Yifang.
Shake your head slightly...
Lu Yu waved his hand. "Let's go, let's meet our Hou Cheng Prefect!"
…
…
Time flies.
The afternoon passed quickly. In Xiapi City, Xuzhou, more than 30,000 people bought lottery tickets!
However, the food obtained from selling has exceeded 200,000, just like lottery players in later generations. Once you get addicted to this kind of thing... who would only buy one?
now…
Everyone is waiting for the moment of the lottery draw.
There were crowds of people in front of the podium... More than 20,000 people were surrounded here, and even the taverns near the podium were crowded!
Time passes by one hour.
finally…
"Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
With a few gongs and drums, the highly anticipated lottery draw time has begun.
"The auspicious time has come, prepare to draw the lottery!"
"The auspicious time has come, prepare to draw the lottery!"
As the officials shouted a few times, the huge turntable was turned again, but, unlike the last time, this time... the officials selected seven people to shake the lottery numbers separately, so that it seemed more fair and just!
Even some officials and guards bought lottery tickets... They would never have dreamed that they were so passionate about this thing.
Of course, this is not a passion for lottery, but a passion for the ten thousand kilograms of food behind the lottery.
"The first number is...three!"
"The second number is...three!"
...
"The seventh number is... Wu!"
"The draw numbers for this issue are, three, three, eight, nine, five, three!"
There was a silence in the crowd...
Then, countless people complained: "This damn 'Three'!"
"Why are there so many threes? Did you make a mistake?"
After a brief complaint, the only sound of sighs remained among the crowd. However, at this moment, an excited voice suddenly arose, instantly breaking the silence here!
"I've won, I've won...I've won!"
A young man waving the lottery in his hand...
Suddenly, countless sharp-eyed officers and soldiers brought him to the stage, and suddenly, tens of thousands of people here cheered up.
What followed was the verification that was exactly the same as yesterday. After the verification... this lucky young man received 10,000 kilograms of food!
Everyone still cast envious eyes at him!
Everything seems to be exactly the same as yesterday!
But...this moment.
The gentry on the second floor of the tavern, but the merchants' eyes unconsciously condensed.
Especially Xuzhou’s richest man, Zhangguin Zhao.
His eyes almost narrowed into a slit...
"Sure enough, one person won the prize yesterday for more than 500 people, and today for more than 200,000 lottery tickets, only one person won the prize, haha... as expected, as expected..."
Speaking of this, he paused, stroked his beard, and continued to sigh: "It is worthy of being Yin Lin, and it is worthy of being Yin Lin who can 'leave the secrets of heaven' by opening his mouth. It is good to raise grain, and the other is good at raising grain!"
Everything that happened in front of him now fully proved his conjecture...
Compared to doing business, Yin Lin is so powerful that the gentry is like these merchants. It seems that Yin Lin knows the hearts of people better!
Just then...
Some merchants opened their mouths and said, "Yesterday, one person won the prize, but today there are a hundred times more buyers... but they are still one person! Don't the people think there is a fraud?"
As soon as this statement comes out...
Everyone looked at Manager Zhao, and Manager Zhao shook his head calmly.
"Haha, for us merchants, maybe one winning prize is essentially different from ten winning prizes, but... for them!"
Secretary Zhao pointed his hand outside the window at the people who were particularly envious.
"For them, one or ten, one hundred...the difference is not big, because as long as someone wins the prize, it represents hope and the existence of hope to get rich overnight! As long as this hope still exists, there will be countless
The common people are flocking to this!"
"How terrifying will this speed of accumulating wealth and food be?"
Light…
Manager Zhao's eyes were shining, as if he had seen through everything.
But how could he know that the mantis stalks the cicada and the oriole is behind...
At this moment...
He and the group of merchants and gentry around him have gradually fallen into a big net specially compiled by Yin Lin for them!
