The first lord of the poor family

Chapter 215 The enemy’s purpose
The yamen servant quickly brought the first prize winner to the high platform.

This man looks to be in his 30s and wears relatively ordinary clothes.

Lin Hai had someone check the lottery ticket carefully to make sure it was genuine.

The prize was redeemed to him in public.

Under everyone's extremely envious eyes, he left happily with 5000 taels of silver.

Then someone else redeemed the second prize, although it was far less than the first prize.

But it's also very eye-catching.

As for the other winners, let them go to the door of the newspaper office to claim their prizes.

After the performance, Lin Hai asked people to send peony away.

Take a horse-drawn carriage to the palace.

Gong Yanwu sent someone to bring him news and asked him to go to the palace to see her immediately after finishing the prize redemption.

Lin Hai didn't know what happened, so he went immediately without delay.

I felt that it was definitely not a trivial matter for Gong Yanwu to send someone to inform him.

Sitting in the carriage thinking about the income from selling lottery tickets.

Before the prize was redeemed, a total of more than 2 taels of silver were sold.

The grand prizes redeemed so far are only less than 7000 taels.

Calculated in this way, the gross profit earned in one day reaches 1 taels.

The cost is not too high, just the cost of printing, labor and rent.

Even if all expenses are removed, you can still make a net profit of more than 1 taels of silver.

Buying this kind of thing is addictive, and many people hope to get rich overnight.

As long as you don't operate in secret and pay attention to credibility, you can keep doing it.

Of course, if you want to keep making money, you must keep up with the anti-counterfeiting signs.

The ability of ancient people to make fakes was also very powerful.

Once someone is able to fake it, they will keep redeeming the first prize.

Serious losses can quickly result.

Lin Hai planned to build a papermaking workshop as soon as possible to produce paper for lottery tickets.

When they arrived at the palace, a eunuch led Lin Hai to Gong Yanwu's bedroom.

Gong Yanwu ordered all the servants to leave.

Gong Yanwu stood up and said with a smile: "You are here, sit down and eat and chat!"

Lin Hai looked at her like a wife welcoming her husband home.

Could it be that someone specially informed me to enter the palace just to have a meal with me?

"What's wrong with you? I thought something big happened when I came here?"

Gong Yanwu smiled charmingly, took Lin Hai's hand and asked him to sit down.

He actually took the initiative to squeeze his shoulders.

Not light or heavy, very comfortable.

Lin Hai was a little panicked.

The majestic Queen Mother actually took the initiative to pinch her shoulders and slap her back. If anyone saw her, her jaw would drop to the ground in shock.

"You are this?"

"Are you comfortable? Is my craftsmanship okay?" Gong Yanwu asked softly.

"It's quite comfortable, but it's too exaggerated for you to rub my shoulders for your status.

Makes me a little antsy and flattered! "

"There are other things you are afraid of!"

"I'm afraid all the men in the world won't be able to stay calm in this situation." Lin Hai said with a wry smile.

Gong Yanwu sat directly in Lin Hai's arms and hugged his neck.

"I am already your woman, so what does it mean to do these things for you?

What's more, you have suffered so much grievance in this matter, and I can still feel this friendship if you can spare the person who wronged you for me. "

Gong Yanwu said this and kissed Lin Hai on the cheek.

Lin Hai took her into his arms and felt how soft Gong Yanwu's body was.

It's simply a stunner,
Completely different from Qiaoer.Qiaoer is even more youthful, and even though they are an old married couple, they still can't let go.

Gong Yanwu's response every time is extremely enthusiastic. If you can get such a woman, what more can you ask for?

Gong Yanwu didn't let Lin Hai do anything, and put food into his mouth.

Then he held the wine glass for him.

Lin Hai did not refuse and enjoyed Gong Yanwu's service.

"By the way, one more thing, what's the current situation in the enemy countries at the border?

Is there any terrible news from the prince? " Lin Hai asked.

Mentioning this matter, Gong Yanwu's expression became much more serious.

"According to the inspection he sent out of the scouts there, the enemy countries seemed to be sending cavalry towards the Turks.

But looking at the current situation, there is no need for them to conflict with the Turks.
It is very likely that it will help the Turks deal with us.

The prince is also making preparations and intends to do his best to defend. "

Lin Hai nodded slightly: "The prince is right to do this, now our Daxia is not suitable for taking the initiative to attack.

This is not the time to fight the enemy with full strength.

Only by relying on city defense can we save our troops! "

"This thing is really strange. These enemy countries rarely unite together.
No matter what benefits the Turks had given them, they were all willing to send troops to help. "

Gong Yanwu was very helpless.

It is already very difficult to deal with one Turk, and deal with so many enemy countries at the same time.

It can only be said that he is helpless.

In the face of the enemy's attack, they can only rely on the city wall for defense.

This is the first time for such a big Xia Dynasty to feel so aggrieved.

"Is there something wrong with the enemy's harvest? They can only survive the winter by plundering our great summer.

Seeing that autumn is approaching, they should be thinking of ways to snatch food. Lin Hai said thoughtfully.

The only conflict between Daxia and these enemy countries is that the enemy countries take a fancy to Daxia's fertile land.

A lot of food can be grown.

These enemy countries mainly focus on animal husbandry. Once a disaster occurs, many people will freeze to death and starve to death in winter.

This is why the nomads have a fierce character.

In fact, the attack on Daxia was also to protect their people.

After all, the living conditions on the grasslands are too harsh, and the people there will have a very difficult time in winter.

"The letter from the prince said so too! But now that we have armor-piercing arrows and rely on the city wall for defense, there is still no problem.

Even if all enemy forces unite with the Turks.

All he needs is that the prince's side is confident enough to resist. "

Lin Hai nodded slightly,
"I have gone to Yuhuashi to take goods to the Turks, as long as I can exchange for a large number of cattle and sheep.

It can help border officials solve certain food and grass problems!

Spend this winter safely, and at least military pay will not be a problem until next year. "

“I am also very worried about this matter, where we in Daxia exchange so many cattle and sheep.

I was afraid that the border generals would not let them go and would eventually take away all the cattle and sheep.

Wouldn't that be a waste of time! "

Gong Yanwu was full of worries, fearing that a good thing would turn into a bad thing.

Lin Hai was confident: "I believe that the Turkic commander's vision is not so superficial.

This business would be of great benefit to Turk, if he took away everything.

They will never get our tea bricks again. "

"Since you said so, there is no need for me to worry.

I believe everything you said. "

Gong Yanwu said.

"Let's not talk about worrying things today, let me serve you well!"
