Chapter 672: Worse than General Rolling Curtain!
Soon, Gao Shilian came back.
Li Shilong said angrily: "Why are you the only one, and where is Qin Mo?"
"Your Majesty, the Prince Consort...he is racing at the horse race and he said he would come over later!" Gao Shilian just went to watch the horse racing scene. It was indeed very interesting and exciting.
Qin Mo was presiding over the scene and everyone was extremely busy. The money in the gambling pool was piled up into a small mountain, at least forty or fifty thousand taels.
Li Shilong slapped the document heavily, "Is he going to rebel? Is it possible that I have to go and invite him personally?"
Gongsun Wuji said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, Qin Mo's achievements are getting bigger and bigger, and he is becoming more and more arrogant and domineering. If this goes on for a long time, the consequences will be disastrous."
Qu Tuba didn't say anything. He had just returned to the capital. At this moment, the reformists had the upper hand. They could discuss the matter on the matter. However, it was better to wait and see when criticizing Qin Mo.
Li Shilong frowned, Qin Mo has always been this character, it doesn't matter whether he has any merit or not.
But he couldn't resist others thinking this way, so he stood up and said coldly: "Let's go over and have a look!"
Soon, a group of people arrived outside the Liubu Yamen. It was crowded and crowded!
There are about a dozen yamen, and in each yamen there are two or three BMWs waiting for the competition.
The atmosphere at the scene was explosive.
"Run, No. 1, Dali Temple, I staked three hundred taels, it's all up to you to recover the money!"
"Taichang Temple No. 2, yes, that's it, surpass them!"
People on both sides were holding bills in their hands, looking excited and swearing.
"Here, Qin's Milk Tea Shop provides milk tea directly, one hundred Daqian Tongbao for one cup!"
"Are you too greedy? The most expensive milk tea shop only costs 30 Daqian Tongbao. You want 100 Daqian Tongbao here. Are you stealing money?" said a young man.
The young man holding an iceberg in his hand said: "This is a special offer for horse racing. Did you see it? This milk tea is called Victory. After drinking Victory milk tea, it will be difficult not to win money!"
"You kid can talk, give me a drink!"
"Okay, Sir, would you like Victory melon seeds and Victory dried fruits? They are fragrant. I only need one hundred Daqian Tongbao!"
“Buy, buy, buy!”
...
Qin Mo just ran a lap, and Feng Ya was still very strong, but because he was too pushy, he had to lower his odds.
Seeing the competition beginning to take shape, he felt happy.
Although he doesn't have much face in the Sixth Department, he has a lot of face in other departments.
These departments are usually miserable, but now their eyes turn green when they hear that they are generating revenue.
When I saw the silver, I grinned to the back of my ears.
"Jingyun, how much money did you collect this time?" Sun Zhiguo, the minister of Dali Temple, asked.
Qin Mo spread his hands, and Sun Zhiguo opened his eyes wide, "Five, five thousand taels?"
"What about swearing? Fifty thousand taels is almost!" Qin Mo smiled, "I didn't put some money on the table. The game will be over soon, let's divide the money!"
"My dear, with so much silver, if we divide it evenly, we will get more than 4,000 taels!" Sun Zhiguo was excited.
"I still need to exchange money for them, but after the exchange is completed, there will probably be about 30,000 taels left. I will take half of it as funds, and you will share the rest!"
"If you smoke so much, won't our work be in vain?" Taichang Temple Qing Fu Liang's eyes widened.
"How much?" Qin Mo snorted: "Do you think it costs nothing to build a venue? I will build a racecourse that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
In the future, admission fees for the top ten Qian Tong Bao will be charged. The admission fee alone for a game can earn thousands of taels. There are 2 to 3 million people in the capital. Even if one tenth participates, that is still 2 to 30 million people.
.
Think about how much your income will be then, it will be at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver a day.
If you do ten horse races a month, you can earn thirty to fifty thousand taels in a month, which is hundreds of thousands of taels a year.
Have you ever seen so much money?"
The other temple ministers all swallowed their saliva.
How unhappy is it to make hundreds of thousands taels a year?
Just when they were looking forward to a bright future, Li Shilong came and said, "Okay, great. If you are not on duty in the yamen, you come here to bet on horse racing. You don't want to do it anymore, do you?"
Everyone trembled and paid their respects one after another.
"I am here to see Your Majesty!"
Some timid people were frightened to their knees.
Seeing this, Li Shilong snorted coldly, "Qin Mo, come here!"
Qin Mo was not surprised and stepped forward, "Your Majesty, why are you here?"
Li Shilong was so angry that he even installed it.
He pointed to the cavalry and the pile of silver beside him, "Come here, explain to me what's going on!"
Everyone wanted to dig a crack in the ground and get in, but Qin Mo said: "Horse racing, generate income, and reduce the pressure on the treasury!"
"Qin Mo, just bet on horses, don't be so righteous as you say!" Gongsun Chong said coldly: "Look at the good things you have done. They are taking the salary from the court, but they are betting on horses here. Isn't that not doing their job properly?
"
"I know, you're the one complaining again!" Qin Mo said angrily: "I helped you just the day before yesterday, why are you acting like a dog and turning your back on me?
My horse racing is disturbing you, and I haven’t invited anyone from your etiquette department to come in. Have you finished recruiting students? You are staring at me every day to fight!"
Gongsun Wuji was so angry that he was twitching.
"Qin Jingyun, give me back my elegance!" Du Jingming scolded: "Hurry up and get rid of this horse race. This is the Liubu Yamen, not your home!
Sun Dali Temple Minister, Fu Taichang Temple Minister, you are also Jiuqing, why are you following this kid to cause such mischief?"
"This... is not a joke, it's mainly to... generate income!" Sun Zhiguo said bravely.
“Generating revenue?”
Li Shilong narrowed his eyes, "Tell me carefully, if you can't be ugly today, just go home and face the wall!"
Dali Temple is one of the three divisions. After Li Cungong became the Minister of Punishment, Sun Zhiguo took over. It was enough for the people below to make nonsense, but Sun Zhiguo also followed suit.
Sun Zhiguo glanced at Qin Mo, gritted his teeth and said: "To be honest with you, your majesty, there are nearly four hundred people in Dali Temple who have not received salary for several years. Although they have rice, it is only enough to make ends meet.
There is no money in the treasury, and I understand that, but the people below are already complaining."
"That's right, Taichang Temple is almost the same!" Fu Liang said with a cupped hand: "Under Taichang Temple there are six offices: Suburban Society, Taiyue, Advocacy, Imperial Physician, Taidivination, and Linxi. There are thousands of people, and it is difficult to make ends meet."
Taichang Temple has no real power. It only serves the royal family, but it has many people under its command.
There was no money in the treasury before, and when Dai Wei was still there, he was very stingy.
Your Majesty has no internal funds and no allocation, so everyone above and below is poor haha.
At their status, they don't care about the little money. After all, their families have fields and other ways of making money.
But others don't.
It would be better if Guanglu Temple is responsible for the sacrifices. After all, the sacrifices are the most important, and you have to squeeze them out even if you don't have money.
Weiwei Temple, which manages the ceremonial tent, has many people and no real power, so poor that it sheds tears.
Speaking of which, it’s Jiu Qing.
