The strongest emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Chapter 222 Li Tai Has Another Moth

"It's more useful than silver. You send someone to buy some bacon. Remember, the more the better, just like food. It will be of great use in the future." Li Tai said to Zou Fengchi after thinking about it.

"My lord, don't worry, after the new year, I promise you will have a mountain of grain and bacon." Zou Fengchi said to Li Tai confidently.

"By the way, you posted a notice to Chang'an City in the name of this king. Said that this king is going to hold a horse race on the Lantern Festival." Li Tai said to Zou Fengchi.

"My lord, I don't know what the name of this horse race will be." Zou Fengchi asked Li Tai.

"This horse racing meeting is very simple, that is, choose a high-quality horse by yourself. Then you will ride the horse for the race, and the winner will get a bonus." Li Tai explained to Zou Fengchi.

"My lord, there is one thing I don't quite understand. What good will it do us to hold this horse race?" Zou Fengchi asked Li Tai after thinking about it.

"This king just likes to chat with you, and he will never forget his own interests. This is what we really need." Li Tai said to Zou Fengchi with satisfaction.

Zou Fengchi is a businessman, no matter what he does, he will do it from the perspective of profit.This is exactly why Li Tai took a fancy to Zou Fengchi.

"My lord, you don't know something. Now that you have a huge family business, all expenses must be guaranteed, otherwise the foundation will be shaken. What I have to do is to provide this guarantee, so how dare you take it lightly." Zou Fengchi said to Li Tai Said.

"You can open a bet in the name of 33 Chongtian, and then write down all the detailed information of the participants. Including their physical fitness and background, as well as the horses they choose. Then offer different odds." Li Tai detailed He and Zou Fengchi explained the rules of horse betting in the market outlook.

"My lord, this method is good, and I can use this competition to establish this project for a long time. In this way, we will have a steady flow of capital inflow. It will definitely not be lower than the profit brought by liquor." Zou Fengchi said to Li happily. said Ty.

Whether it is now or in future generations, the most profitable people are nothing more than pornography, gambling and drugs.Huang and Poison Li Tai would never take it, after all, it was a matter of harming their own people.Of course, Li Tai thinks it's okay to use it in certain places.

The next day Zou Fengchi posted a notice in Chang'an City.The announcement gave a detailed introduction to the rules of the horse race.

And the threshold for participating in the Jockey Club this time is very low, as long as you have a horse, you can sign up for it.And the bonus for No.1 is as high as 100 taels of silver.

This is definitely a tempting number, so many people have racked their brains to get this bonus.So the number of people who signed up was naturally in an endless stream.

What Li Tai didn't expect was that in just one day, there were as many as hundreds of people signing up for this horse race.

"My lord, there are more and more people signing up for the competition. I'm afraid it won't be able to accommodate so many contestants by then." Zou Fengchi said to Li Tai.

"It's simple. You can divide them into several groups. Then let them compete separately, and select several winners in each group. Then go to the next round of competition, and finally decide the top eight to compete for the championship. "Li Tai said to Zou Fengchi.

"My lord, this is a good way. This will not only reduce the pressure of the competition, but also provide us with more opportunities to sit on the bank." Zou Fengchi said happily.

"You can go back and study it. This kind of competition is not limited to horse racing. There are also many kinds of competitions that can be played. If you can create dozens or hundreds of competitions, when the time comes, the king will let you If they compete together, it will be an unprecedented prosperity." Li Tai said to Zou Fengchi.

"I, Zou Fengchi, have felt that earning money is really not a difficult task since I met the lord. Every time the lord seems to have a random idea, the benefits it brings back to us in the end are immeasurable." Zou Fengchi said with a face. Said to Li Tai with admiration.

"Since ancient times, a gentleman loves money in a proper way. As long as we don't take others by force or accept bribes from others, any other way of making money is a proper way to get it. It's just how this way goes, then It depends on us to master it ourselves." Li Tai said to Zou Fengchi.

The next day, 33 Chongtian posted another notice, which stated that the Jockey Club would be divided into eight groups.Several rounds of competition in the group stage will be carried out first.

Then there will be four winners from each group.Then there will be a knockout round. The knockout round is divided into three games, 32 into [-], and [-] into [-].and the final championship match.

It can be said that the model proposed by Li Tai to Zou Fengchi is similar to the World Cup that has become popular all over the world.It can even be said that Li Tai cloned the game process of the World Cup.

And Li Tai increased the prize money for the champion to 500 taels, 200 taels for the second place, and [-] taels for the third place.This makes it even more attractive.

Even the state capitals around Chang'an City had people coming to Chang'an City to sign up for the competition.At one time, the number of applicants reached thousands.

With such a big momentum, Li Shimin naturally couldn't hide it. When Li Shimin learned that Li Tai was going to hold a horse race.I also feel very strange in my heart.

"Guanyin maidservant, what the hell is this kid Qing Que doing? There is a horse race going on suddenly, and a thousand taels of silver is offered as a bonus." Li Shimin asked his eldest grandson Wugou.

"When did Qing Que do a loss-making business, you can see, the final winner is definitely him." Changsun Wugou said to Li Shimin with a smile.

"I fully agree with this point, but now the important officials in the court have already criticized Qingque. Some people even say that Qingque is not doing a proper job." Li Shimin said helplessly.

"Recently I heard that Qingque wrote a poem. I wonder if Erlang has heard of it." Changsun Wugou said to Li Shimin.

"When will this boy write a poem again? I don't know what kind of poor poem he wrote." Li Shimin asked his eldest grandson Wugou with a smile.

"Erlang got it wrong this time. Qing Que's writing is definitely a good sentence. If you don't believe me, you can see for yourself." Changsun Wugou said while handing a piece of paper full of words to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin opened it and saw that it read:

Peach Blossom Temple in Taohuawu,
Peach Blossom Immortals in Peach Blossom Temple.

The Peach Blossom Fairy planted peach trees,
Picking peach blossoms for wine money.

Wake up and just sit in front of the flowers,
Drunk still come to spend sleep.

Half drunk and half awake day after day,
Flowers bloom year after year.

I hope to die of old age in the flower wine room,
I don't want to bow before chariots and horses.

The car dust and horses are enough to show people's affairs,

Wine calendula branch hermit edge.

If the obvious is compared to the hermit,

One is on the ground and the other is on the sky.

If flowers and wine are compared to chariots and horses,
He is busy and I am free.

Others laugh at me as crazy,
I laugh at others can't see through.

I don't see the tombs of heroes in the five tombs,
Hoe the fields without flowers and wine.
