Chapter 368 It really hurts just thinking about it!



[Is it also a trait of multiple births in the woman’s family? ]

【Three generations ago, all the women in the family gave birth to twin girls?】

[What? Two families are getting married. Do you want three, four, or five children? ]

【Stimulate! 】

[What's the point of the palace examination? Hahaha, hurry back, get married and have kids! ]

[If I were a tavern owner, I could place a bet on how many babies they would have when they got married. Hahaha! There must be a lot of people placing bets!]

Huo Feng: [There are more people watching the fun! ]

Jun Baozhu laughed “hahahaha” in her heart, and her voice was obviously cheerful.

【Quick! Drag it away! 】

[Don't sign the letter of commitment yet, hurry back and get married! Revitalize the hometown industry with your own efforts! ]

Huo Feng: [Are you sure? The emperor likes this kind of gambling industry? ]

Jun Baozhu said confidently: [The government will guide, determine the compensation ratio, crack down on high-value dubo ratios, and everyone will participate and have fun. How great is that? ]

[When they have a baby, no matter how much money they make, everyone will come to congratulate them. The baby they give birth to will attract the attention of the whole nation. Everyone will pay attention to and wish them well for their growth. How wonderful is that? ]

[What? I'll probably settle accounts with them if I lose money?]

[Hahaha! I can't do anything about that. He didn't ask others to place bets. They have to bear their own profits and losses!]

After hearing this, the examinee's eyes lit up, and he picked up the brush and was about to sign the commitment...

Huo Feng stretched his neck, combined the clues he had detected, and promptly revealed the information to Jun Baozhu.

When Jun Baozhu heard this, her eyes widened.

【What? He plans to abstain? 】

[Are you in such a hurry to go back and get married? ]

【What? ! 】

Jun Baozhu heard Huo Feng's analysis of the examinee's facial expressions, his guess, and raised his voice.

[He plans to go back and use the marriage as an excuse to set up a gambling game? ]

[It just so happens that my future father-in-law owns several wineries and restaurants. Is this mutually beneficial? ]

When the ministers heard this, their expressions varied.

More than half of the people had greed flashing in their eyes.

Even if the candidate can mobilize the resources of his father-in-law's family to set up a gambling game locally, he does not have such ability to expand the gambling game to other states and counties in the short term.

Candidates can’t, but they can.

The candidates' childbirth and the families of both parties are a big enough gimmick and attractive enough to attract people to place bets.

Not only the first child, but also the following children can be used as a reason for betting, which is really profitable!

The little princess was a genius. She showed them a way to make money!

Just thinking of this, although the officials had no expression on their faces, they could not hide the smile in their eyes.

But this smile didn't last long...

Then the little princess continued in her heart:

[They all place bets anyway, so why do they need the government to guide them? Why should the government work for them? ]

The ministers looked up in shock and heard the little princess's righteous voice.

[If that doesn't work, the Ministry of Accounts will take over, start formal betting, provide entertainment for all, set payout ratios, and crack down on private excessive gambling...]

[The profits should be confiscated and used to help the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, and to make up for the shortfall in the national treasury. How good is that? ]

The emperor's expression brightened when he heard this.

The Crown Prince's eyes flickered slightly, and Prince Rui smiled as he looked at the disappointed ministers around him.

The examinee's expression froze, and his originally complacent expression suddenly froze.

His hand was suspended in mid-air. He was about to sign the words of giving up, but suddenly he lost his strength and couldn't write.

Jun Baozhu was totally unaware, and kept talking in her mind:

[Of course, the candidates and future daughters-in-law have worked hard and made great contributions, but we cannot let them “work” in vain...]

[You can set up rewards for them. For example, how much money or land can be rewarded for each child...]

[Land is the best, money can easily support idlers, and it can also easily make others jealous. ]

[If you don’t work hard on the land, it’s the same as nothing. So, in order to balance fairness and encourage the candidates’ families to be self-reliant…]

[We can give them the barren hills for free. Whether we subcontract them to the poor or grow them ourselves, they can earn extra income, which can be considered a reward.]

[The reward ratio is proportional to the number of children. After all, the more children a woman has, the more energy she will have to work on her. This is reasonable.]

[Naturally, the people hope that they will have many children, and the voice of support is even louder.]

[The government set up a bureau based on this matter, but it cannot make profits for nothing. It can provide free medical care to the mother.]

[From pregnancy to childbirth, mothers can receive free medical treatment and prescription medicine, including the child, and the expenses are borne by the Ministry of Households. ]

[In this way, not only will the imperial court benefit, but the Ministry of Revenue will also gain more revenue and have more funds to support the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled. The candidates and their wives’ families will also benefit...]

[Other families with spare money can also make some money by betting. ]

[Even if there are losses, the government has prevented ordinary people from losing everything by limiting the maximum betting amount and requiring real-name registration.]

When the ministers heard this, their eyes rolled...

Since the little princess has revealed it, based on their understanding of the emperor, they will definitely carry it out.

Fortunately, knowing the little princess's suggestion in advance, they can take countermeasures in advance and increase the number of bettors through slaves and servants. Even if there is an upper limit, they can still bet more and gain profits.

But, it really hurts to think that I could have been the banker but now can only eat the meat of flies!

At this time, the little princess's slightly smug laughter was heard in the hall.
