Eat the whole family? I emptied the storehouse of the Marquis' Mansion and married the crippled

After finding the manager of the gambling house, Ye Jintang waved his hand and asked Bai Ziyao to start recruiting and training the owners and clerks of the gambling houses in various cities as quickly as possible.

New gambling houses have many new ways to play. If you are not well trained in advance, things will probably become a mess once they open.

Afterwards, Ye Jintang handed the design drawings of the gambling house to Qiao Yuan and asked him to lead people to build the gambling house as quickly as possible.

It costs a lot of money to build a five-story building. Even if Ye Jintang has enough money, he doesn't dare to build hundreds of them at once.

She only built 50 in the first batch, and the locations she chose were all the most prosperous cities in the Tianqin Kingdom.

Just like that, the silver in her space flowed out like water.

"Your Majesty, please write me an IOU. The gambling house belongs to the state, and I cannot pay for this money from my own pocket money."

Ye Jintang slapped a promissory note on the desk in front of Xiao Mo, which stated that the Tianqin State Treasury lent her 1000 million taels of silver.

"All this money is used to build a gambling house?"

1000 million taels of silver! Xiao Mo felt a sharp pain in his heart just looking at it.

"Almost. In addition to building a gambling house, we also need to recruit many shopkeepers and assistants. They all need to be paid."

"With so much money, when can we earn it back?"

Xiao Mo was muttering to himself, but his hands were not idle at all. He picked up the jade seal and his private seal and stamped them on the IOU.

"If it's slow, it will take a year. If it's fast, it will take about half a year."

Xiao Mo, who was still holding the private seal in his hand, was so surprised that he almost dropped the seal on the ground.

"Jintang, what did you just say? If it's fast, half a year, 1000 million taels of silver? How is that possible?"

"What's impossible? There is not only one gambling house. Of course, if you want to make money quickly, you also need peace and prosperity. If the people can't even eat, who would have the leisure to go out and have fun?"

"Well, that makes sense."

Xiao Mo put away the private seal in his hand, picked up a memorial and handed it to Ye Jintang to read.

"This year's autumn harvest is amazing. No one will have to go hungry in the winter. The grain seeds you gave us, Jintang, really saved the people of Tianqin."

"As expected, although it was the first time to use rice seeds, the effect was much better than I thought."

Looking at the data on the memorial, Ye Jintang was still very satisfied.

The rice seeds she sent out were all grown in the black soil of the space. At first, she was worried that planting rice in black soil was different from planting rice by ordinary people, which would affect the yield. Now it seems that she was too worried.

As long as it is produced from space farmland, it is estimated that there will be a good harvest even if it is planted in saline-alkali land.

The Tianqin Kingdom developed slowly step by step according to the plan of Ye Jintang and Xiao Mo. As the Mid-Autumn Festival approached, the busy Ye Jintang was finally able to stop and take a breath.

"Your Majesty, these are the six selected female officials. Please review them and decide which ones to keep."

Nanny Zhang handed a booklet to Ye Jintang with both hands.

Above are the performance of the six female official candidates in the past half month, as well as how they handled the questions given by Ye Jintang.

Ye Jintang looked at it carefully and went over the names again in her mind. She picked up a vermilion pen and ticked two names.

"Keep Wu Shiyun and Liu Yin, and have them work at Wutong Palace tomorrow."

"Yes."

It took several months from the time Ye Jintang started selecting female officials, and finally two people were selected from hundreds of people.

It has to be said that she is more strict in selecting female officials than Xiao Mo is in selecting concubines.

The next morning, Wu Shiyun and Liu Yin came to see Ye Jintang together.

Neither of them has a very outstanding appearance. Liu Yin even has a little baby fat. Wu Shiyun is tall and thin, and looks a little cold.

"Everyone, get up. From today on, you will serve me."

"Yes."

Of course, the service Ye Jintang mentioned did not mean asking the two of them to serve her tea and water.

In the small study, the first thing Ye Jintang assigned to the two was to decide on the specific styles of door curtains, drapes, and valances that the gambling house would need, as well as specific details of some soft furnishings.

Earlier, someone sent various styles to Ye Jintang for review. For Ye Jintang, such a trivial matter did not require her review.

But in order to test the two new female officials, she left the matter alone.

"Yes."

Ye Jintang handed down the tasks. She did not give any specific tasks or requirements. She just wanted to see whether the two people had the ability to do it to her satisfaction.

To put it bluntly, the two female officials are actually Ye Jintang's secretaries, and whether they get along well with each other will directly affect their future cooperation.

If both parties' aesthetics, methods of doing things, habits, etc. are not on the same channel, cooperation will be very painful, and some small details will be troublesome to change again and again.

In addition to the opening of the gambling house, the Medical School for Girls has also completed enrollment and started classes. Ye Jintang's attention has been focused on the Medical School for Girls recently.

Liuli sent her a letter almost every three days, reporting to her on the latest developments at the Medical School for Girls.

She had just opened the letter written by Liuli and hadn't read it for a while when Wu Shiyun and Liu Yin came over together.

"Your Majesty, we have already chosen it. Please take a look."

Wu Shiyun presented the selected drawings. Some of the drawings had a small note attached to them, which explained why they chose this drawing.

"It's pretty fast. It only took about half an hour."

Ye Jintang quickly flipped through the drawings and she quite liked the designs on them.

"Just follow your selection and have the artist draw the picture as soon as possible. Qiao Yuan is very fast in building houses. It's not like he has finished building the house before he has even chosen all the furnishings inside."

"Yes, slave, go right away."

On the first day the two female officials came to Wutong Palace, Ye Jintang did not assign them too many things to do. From the initial contact, she was very satisfied with them, and they were worthy of being selected through layers of screening.

Not long after the Mid-Autumn Festival, state-owned gambling houses called Yuanhe sprang up in the 12 most prosperous cities in Tianqin.

Ye Jintang asked Wu Shiyun and Liu Yin to participate and came up with a marketing plan for the gambling house. In the first three days of opening, the gambling house earned tens of thousands of taels of silver a day.

Moreover, the amount has been rising sharply. Nobles and ordinary people from other surrounding cities have gathered in the newly opened Yuanhe Casino, wanting to see what the difference is between this place and the previous casinos.

Ye Jintang used the daily turnover to tell everyone that the novel ways of playing she thought of were very attractive. Some people stayed in the gambling house almost every day after opening for three days and were reluctant to leave.

"Jintang, you always give me great surprises."

In a good mood, Xiao Mo strode happily into Ye Jintang's small study. He waved his hand and drove out all the palace maids serving in the study, then walked forward and squeezed a chair with Ye Jintang.

He also received the news from the gambling house at the first time. In the past, he always felt that Bencaotang was a treasure trove. Now the gambling houses can make more money than Bencaotang. He couldn't even imagine what the scene would be like when hundreds of gambling houses opened in Tianqin in the future.

"Your Majesty, don't be too anxious to be happy. I don't do shady business. Once the popularity of the gambling house has passed, the income will enter a stable period. Only then will we know how much income the gambling house can bring to the national treasury every year."
