"Haha, I really want to practice literature, but I haven't been able to get started yet. I don't know why. This book happens to record it, so I read it several times out of curiosity." Long Junhai said with a smile.
"I see! But since you want to learn the way of literature, you have to wait a few more days, because the Confucian Temple will not open until next month, and it will only be open to the public for three days within a year. You can't enter at all during the rest of the time. As long as you enter the Confucian Temple and put your soul jade slip in it, you will become a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sage. Of course, this is only a registered disciple. If you want to truly become a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sage, you still need to go through layers of assessments. Passing the assessment is considered a success. Every assessment will be of great help to you because it can improve your literary strength. Basically, as long as you can reach the level of a scholar, you can become a mortal immortal-level cultivator of the way of literature. A juren is an earthly immortal, and a jinshi is a celestial immortal. To go higher, you can only rely on your own luck. However, I think you have the potential to be the top scholar, so basically you will have no problem reaching the golden immortal. But if you want to achieve higher achievements, you need to accumulate foundation." Li Bai said with a smile.
"Thank you, Brother Li, for your guidance! I am truly grateful!" Long Junhai said excitedly.
"No need for that. We are brothers of the opposite sex. This little thing is not worth mentioning. But you have to give me more of the good wine you have hidden on you!" Li Bai said with a smile.
"Of course. Although I only have a few bottles here now, I can brew better wine. There will definitely be enough for you!" After saying that, Long Junhai took out a few more porcelain bottles, all filled with wine.
"Haha, this is enough for me to drink for several months! But your wine is really strong. I dare not drink too much. I can only drink twice as much a day, otherwise I will lose my memory! I have never lost my memory after drinking in the past tens of thousands of years!" Li Bai said with a smile.
"A little drinking can make you happy, but too much drinking can harm your body. You must control the amount!" Long Junhai reminded again.
Li Bai nodded and immediately said, "Don't worry, it's just a small matter. I know what to do! Oh, by the way, brother, I've prepared the money you asked for. Here are 50 billion Tang Dynasty treasure notes. Keep them."
"Thank you, Brother Li. I will write you a receipt right away. Brothers should settle accounts clearly. You will also be a part of the future profits!" said Long Junhai.
"Don't! These things are nothing but empty talk, and I don't care about them at all. Just consider it as my money to buy some wine! Even if you don't want it, I will use this money to buy some crappy imperial tribute wine. I like to be free, so how can I let money bind my emotions?" Li Bai said with a smile.
When he heard this, Long Junhai became even more excited. They were both real people. Since the other party didn't care, it would seem pretentious if he said more.
"Okay, Brother Li, you go ahead and do your work. I still have things to take care of. Please remember to notify me when the Confucian Temple opens!" Long Junhai said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, brother, why don't you stay with me for a few more days?" Li Bai asked with a smile.
"Next time, I don't have enough time this time. I'll stay here for a few more days after I finish the things I have at hand!" said Long Junhai.
"Okay! We have a deal!" Li Bai readily sent Long Junhai away personally.
When Long Junhai returned to his Shenlong General Mansion, he began to carefully consider his next plan.
In order to open a bank, in addition to a certain amount of working capital, you must have credibility, otherwise no one will be willing to deposit money in your bank, so the next step is to improve your credibility.
After much thought, Long Junhai decided to stick with the previous sales strategy.
First, he converted his general's mansion into a bank and added a sign at the door. This was considered to have made his name famous, but as to whether it could attract customers, it was still hard to say.
Then Long Junhai posted a huge banner at the door. As long as you deposit money or take out a loan in the bank, you will have a chance to participate in a lottery with the highest reward being 100 million Tang Dynasty treasure notes!
As a result, people soon came to inquire about the authenticity of the matter. You know, 100 million Tang Dynasty treasure notes are a lifetime wealth for ordinary people below the Golden Immortal level! There is no one in the entire Tang Dynasty who can squander tens of billions at a time like Li Bai!
So, those who wanted to get rich overnight gathered at the door of Long Junhai's bank.
At first, no one knew what a bank was, nor did they know what saving money and taking out a loan were.
So Long Junhai patiently explained to everyone, and in the end added several signs to explain various deposit and loan issues.
"General Long, can I participate in the lottery as long as I save money? It doesn't matter how much I save?" someone asked excitedly.
"Of course you can, but each person must deposit at least 10,000 Tongbao at a time. 10,000 Tongbao can be used to participate in a lottery, and the money you deposit is still yours. I will pay you additional interest, which is equivalent to the handling fee for using your money. It is calculated on a daily basis, one ten-thousandth a day. That is to say, if you deposit 10,000 Tongbao with me, you can get 10,010 Tongbao in a day, and you can also get a chance to participate in a lottery. Why not do it?" Long Junhai said with a smile.
"But what if we give you the money and you run away with it?" someone else asked worriedly.
"These things are impossible to happen, because our bank was opened to make a profit. If each person deposits 10,000 Tongbao, 10,000 people will have 100 million Tongbao. The highest prize in our lottery this time is 100 million. Do you think we will run away with the money for such a small amount of money? Besides, we don't store all the money here. We are just a currency circulation platform. If any of you are short of money, you can borrow from us and pay us the interest later. The interest is 0.5% a day. If you borrow 10,000 Tongbao, it is equivalent to paying the interest of 5 Tongbao a day. After you have money, you can make more money. We are mutually beneficial, so why not do it?"
The people of the Tang Dynasty were confused by Long Junhai's explanations and basically only had a vague understanding of them. However, they did not care. What they cared about was whether they could win the grand prize!
So some people deposited 10,000 Tongbao coins to try their luck, and then excitedly rushed to participate in the lottery.
Long Junhai’s lottery method is also very novel, at least it is a very novel thing for everyone.
Long Junhai specially made a transparent crystal box, which contained a bunch of red balls, a total of thirty-six, with numbers from one to thirty-six written on them. Then the lottery participants only needed to turn the switch to shake out the number balls. Seven number balls were shaken out each time as the final jackpot numbers. As long as a person could shake out the same seven number balls twice in a row, he would win the jackpot!
