126 Sweeping the Thousand Army
The second week is 9 a.m.
The four Democratic Party members stood on the steps of Zhong Erzai's house and were talking about something dejectedly. There were more than 20 guys, bodyguards and thugs under the steps. They stood shoulder to shoulder in two rows, standing neatly, like a foreign gun team.
Faced with such a strong army, the people on the steps were not happy. Their faces were depressed, as if they were going to camp in the woods where tigers were everywhere. Lin Liuming waved a paper wide in his hand and said, "Yesterday, he finally used this 10,000 yuan blank check to deceive the unruly people. Today they knew that we had not bought any lottery tickets, and they would be furious and would definitely cause trouble."
After saying that, he looked up and said to Li Meng: "Old Li, how is your contact with Ou Xingsun? Today, we must have a sheriff here before we go to the circus."
Li Meng said with disdain: "We have stuffed money. How can he not send a police force to maintain order?"
Zhong Erzai spread his hands and shouted, "What a bastard. He is spitting on his face every day by those unruly people, and he has to smile. I want to die."
Zhuang Fei sighed, walked over and patted Zhong Erzai's shoulder and said, "Brother, you are young and energetic. We have invested so much money in it, and we still hope that they will buy our second round Bole bonus. You can't offend those bastards."
"Sure, what a fool! They all bought four or five thousand yuan, and we bought two or five thousand yuan to give each other money." Zhong Erzai shouted in pain.
Li Meng gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay! If you break up today, you'll fight them. Those deposits are the only money that can make up for our losses. Besides, we recruit workers! After signing the contract, how could they always want to break the contract? Dreaming! A bunch of garbage!"
At this time, Lin Liuming pointed to the distance from the street and shouted: "The police officer is here, let's go."
Everyone looked up and saw that four or five sheriffs rushed over. The leader was Ou Xingsun's subordinate. The four people in the Opium Pavilion immediately asked the manager to lead the team. The thugs in the Opium Pavilion stood at attention and turned to the right, and they were just "Run-go!" and rushed to the circus.
But the sheriff had no intention of going with everyone. They ran to the stairs, and the three of them sat on the stairs so tired that they sat on the stairs. One of them knelt on the stairs and lowered their heads and panted wildly. The sweat beads fell on the stairs and stone slabs, like plum blossoms.
"You don't have to be so anxious, you're so polite. Come and bring some water to you." Zhong Erzai thought it was the other party too polite, but the sheriff pointed at the direction of the yamen and said angrily: "You...you...you...you...you hurry up...go to the door of the yamen... take a look...and post a new list again..."
===================
Half an hour later, Fang Bingsheng at the train station stared at the four angry Democratic parties in front of him, and Lin Liuming simply lay down on the carpet under Fang Bingsheng's feet.
"What's wrong? The troublemaker set fire to the circus?" Because Zhong Jialiang and his side had no explanation in the past two days, Fang Bing's clever wife was hard to cook without rice. The boss doesn't care. I'm just not caring about it. He really doesn't want to pay attention to them anymore, so he lives at the train station every day, but he was still shocked when he saw their appearance.
"Mr. Fang has something big!" Lin Liuming, who was lying on the ground, took off his rushing momentum first. He turned over and lay on the ground with his eyes rolling, panting.
===================
At the same time, on the train station road, passers-by saw the big boss Zhang Qijie running wildly along the road. He was the only one, no carriage or follower, he did not wear a hat and a civilized stick, and he didn't even wear a coat. He just dragged his big braid on his shirt and his sleeves were not taken off.
There were two people from the yamen in front of the train station posting a big red list. Zhang Qijie rushed there and looked closely. The two people who posted the list naturally knew Zhang Qijie, but they and the few people around them looked at Zhang Qijie in a daze, with pitiful expressions in their expressions and no one spoke.
After reading it, Zhang Qijie looked disbelief and gritted his teeth and continued to run forward, rushing all the way to the lottery shop, which was already crowded.
Fan Xijue was setting up a wooden sign with the people sent from the yamen. The red list on it was dazzling. Zhang Qijie opened his mouth and stared at him, rudely pushed away the crowd, rushed to the bottom of the list and watched carefully, as if he was going to the shore of a shipwreck to recognize the body. He was full of fear and expectation.
But this red list is the same as the one posted at the train station entrance.
A few lines of words were written on it:
"I received a call from the capital today and told the people:
Yesterday Tuesday, in order to express support for the election and encourage the Democratic candidates, the "Song Dynasty Patriotic Foreign Medicine Guild" implemented the important edict of His Majesty "The People Come to Election, Election for the People", and specially invested in the purchase of lottery tickets from several Democratic Mr. Longchuan to show their support, and participated in the election with the god of love and loyalty to the emperor:
The number of purchases is as follows:
Zhong Erzai: 25,000 pictures;
Li Meng: 25,000 pictures;
Lin Liuming: 25,000 pictures;
Zhuang Fei: 25,000 pictures;
Lottery sales location: 6th floor, News Building, No. 147, Governor's Mansion Road, Haijing, sales point of the headquarters of "Da Song Patriotic Lottery Issuing Company" at No. 147, Haijing Governor's Mansion Road."
Zhong Jialiang bought his own 100,000 silver dollar lottery ticket at one time!
The whole Song Dynasty was shocked!
When the little Longchuan received the news from the capital, he was shocked and silently.
100,000 silver dollars!
Each candidate received 25,000 lottery tickets!
Zhang Qijie stared at the red list, feeling the black brush words on it fluttering and swaying, and it was blurred. The ground was undulating like waves, which made him feel like he was flying.
Just as he was about to knock him down, a harsh roar came from his eardrums: "Brother-in-law! Brother-in-law! What's wrong with you?!"
He shook his neck to see with difficulty, and the harsh sounds of the friction of the neck bones echoed in his skull. In his blurry sight, he saw that he was lying beside him, lying alone beside his calves, constantly spasming.
He rubbed his eyes, and the crowd of people burst into screams at the list. He finally woke up and saw clearly that it was Fan Linhui who was lying on the ground, frothing in his mouth.
Holding the huge pain in his heart and the tears that were about to burst out from his eyes, Zhang Qijie squatted down and pinched Fan Linhui's people. After a long time, Fan Linhui rolled his eyes and rolled back. He hugged Zhang Qijie and cried bitterly. Tears and snot spread through Zhang Qijie's thin shirt, and his mouth was always sobbing: "What should I do? What should I do? My money..."
Zhang Qijie hugged Fan Linhui's shoulders, raised his head, closed his eyes slightly, and did not dare to close his eyes too strong, as it would squeeze out his tears. He closed his eyes slightly, trying to let his eyes absorb the warm liquid that hurts his eyes.
At this time, Li Guangxi rushed over, without saying a word, half-kneeling on the squatting Zhang Qijie and Fan Linhui sitting on the ground asked with sobs: "What should I do? Lao Zhang, do you have a way?"
"Grass! My money!" Qi Yunlu rushed over, squatted beside the three of them, hugging their heads and shouting.
The four main forces of the Chamber of Commerce were all over the place before the list.
Only Wang Yu's family is still happily following Dr. Li and Elder Hou and others in the countryside to preach to treat the disease, and they don't know about this.
At this moment, the sound of firecrackers came from Sany Street, and everyone turned their heads to look.
The Democratic Party's campaign carriage was back. Lin Liuming stood on the roof of the carriage despite his weakness and illness for many years of smoking opium. He opened his arms, revealing the ribs like a washing board, his face full of the expression of smoking a box of opium. He was placed under his feet with a firecracker plate as thick as a millstone, and hung along the firecrackers like a python in his hand. The firecrackers were like a fire-breathing giant python, and it exploded one meter under his hands, and the smoke filled the gunpowder.
Fang Bingsheng, Zhuang Feijiang, Li Meng, and Zhong Erzai lined up in front of the horse's head, and they were wearing red banners that made decisions for the people on their shoulders. While walking, they raised their arms and shouted: "Long live the Song Dynasty! The election is a thousand years old! The Democratic Party will win! The election of the Democratic Party is to make you rich! The Democratic Party will never owe the people!"
Fang Bingsheng was a little better, and the other three seemed to be crazy like Lin Liuming. Every loud roar was at the top of his lungs, wishing he could roar from the ground.
It’s not because they will win the election, but because they will inevitably make a profit.
Unexpectedly, the boss of Zhong Jialiang was so good. He bought them 25,000 pieces at a time. Who in the world can compete with him? The pot has 200,000 silver dollars, and the Democratic Party will definitely have it. Then even if the Democratic Party lottery tickets are sold across the country and sold 100,000 yuan to split the lottery pool, a one-yuan lottery ticket can still get back 2 yuan!
Zhong Jialiang's 100,000 is converted into 200,000;
The 2,000 private money invested by the Democratic Party has turned into 4,000! It’s a waste of time to get a member of parliament!
There is such a good thing in the world!
Several Democratic Party members were ecstatic, and their previous regret for their own money had all turned into sincere praises and praises.
Even Fang Bingsheng, who followed them to shout slogans, regretted: "Damn, Yi Cheng wouldn't say anything to me in advance, otherwise I would have bought several thousand lottery tickets and used Zhong Jialiang's main force to play with the lottery pool."
The crowd surrounded again, so the people who had the Democratic lottery tickets in their hands were the same as the four Democratic people. A few days ago, they were extremely distressed: looking at the Democratic lottery tickets that might turn into waste paper in their hands, they were in pain, and their wives and children at home also called themselves stupid, and they felt so distressed that they couldn't sleep at night. They went to contact others to vote together to make the Democratic Party elected to make a dark horse? They were always worried that others would secretly buy the Chamber of Commerce lottery that they had won at the time when they didn't know; they also wanted to add the Chamber of Commerce secretly, right? Another large sum of money!
Unexpectedly, nightmare became a beautiful dream. As soon as Zhong Jialiang took action, he swept the troops. Who can buy more than 20,000 lottery tickets? His own lottery wins money!
Some people cheered and jumped and followed the patrol carriage to praise them. They were still dejected because they were about to lose the lottery, but now it seems that the dead of the shipwreck was resurrected by Jesus' death;
The other part of the people are of course the relatives of the victims, and the number of them is more. Most of them stood in front of the lottery store in a daze. Looking at the fools who were just laughing at me, they suddenly waved the "waste paper" lottery and laughed wildly with the parade carriage. Yesterday, they were still in a dream: Look how smart I am? I bought it with the bosses of the Chamber of Commerce. They are all smart people! It is not wrong to do things. Moreover, the Democratic Party has no confidence at all and dare not compete with others! If they buy their lottery tickets, they will burn money! Or am I smart? My wife and children also praised me. I have bought chickens and wine every day these two days. After all, the lottery tickets of three or four yuan may become thirty or forty yuan in a month. Since that is the case, spend one yuan in advance to buy meat and wine to celebrate.
Unexpectedly, the Democratic boss is so cruel? Buy 100,000 at once!
The dream turned into a nightmare in an instant.
Although the hot summer sun shines and everyone is sweating profusely, many people are still trembling when they are staring at the lottery that has turned into waste paper in their hands.
"Oh my God! I bought Li Meng's lottery ticket last week and felt like I lost. I just bought the lottery ticket of 10 yuan yesterday! What's going on with you? Calculate it, I didn't make any money!" Someone stomped his feet and shouted.
Someone next to him immediately smiled bitterly and shouted, "You are good enough. I have bought all the people in the Chamber of Commerce, and they are completely finished."
This cold wind-like dialogue hovered in the crowd, and it seemed like a cold and black wind blew up at the door of the lottery store, freezing the supporters of the chamber of commerce there.
Someone came to the four chamber of commerce who were squatting, kneeling or sitting under the red list, stretched out a stack of lottery tickets in his hand, and whispered: "Dear bosses, you are all famous Christians in Longchuan, great charity. I have been unemployed for a long time. I finally saved 4 yuan and bought them all. Can you do a good deed to buy them?"
Immediately, a group of people surrounded them, accusing, intimidating and begging them to buy the lottery they had in their hands.
"We're also losing money! You've lost 4 yuan, and I've lost 2,000 yuan!" Qi Yunlu turned her head and shouted angrily and anxiously.
As he said that, he stood up and shouted to everyone: "Don't be discouraged! There is also the prize for the second round of Bole Award. The voters who bought our chamber of commerce votes voted for us. Half of Zhong Jialiang's bets will be included in the second round. We will at least keep the pot of 100,000 and Zhong Jialiang's 50,000, and we will double it!"
But in response to this, there was a boo: On the premise that the Chamber of Commerce must lose the "Public Opinion Award", who can guarantee that everyone else will invest in the Chamber of Commerce? You must follow the crowd! If others don't invest in the Chamber of Commerce, they will definitely lose. Aren't you stupid?
These double-round duplex lottery actually make everyone think the same: you either win in both rounds or lose in both rounds. Knowing that there must be one loss, who will risk taking the risk of betting on the rest of the money?
Qi Yunlu turned around, shook Zhang Qijie's shoulder and shouted, "Boss, you are the handsome man, you are the smartest and most courageous. Do you think of a way?"
Zhang Qijie seemed to have been awakened. He held Fan Linhui, who was like dementia on his shoulder, sat upright against the wooden sign, squatted there and sighed, pointed to the sky, and said, "There is only one way."
"What?" Everyone who heard it widened their eyes and their heads came over.
Chapter completed!
