Chapter 29 Propaganda Department and Economic Department
Changlefang, the most lively market in Chang'an, stands a huge building in the center of it - the Datang Exchange!
At this time, the most ordinary room among the dozens of attics in the Datang Exchange, Room 007.
A breathtaking sound of the flute rose gently, the girls in the room danced in long sleeves, countless beautiful petals flew gently, and the refreshing fragrance of flowers was fascinating.
The twelve beauties, like blooming buds, spreading around. In the rain, a woman in white, as beautiful as a fairy appeared like a secluded orchid in the valley. With her light and graceful dance posture and her wide sleeves opened and closed, she further highlighted her beautiful appearance with a wide appearance.
Everyone in the room looked at the graceful dance of the woman in white and almost forgot to breathe. The woman's beautiful eyes were waving, and everyone present was beating their hearts. They thought that she was looking at her. Finally, the woman in white stopped her eyes on the man wearing a python robe and was extremely heroic.
At this time, the sound of the flute suddenly turned sharply. The woman took her right foot as the axis. She relaxed her long sleeves, and her delicate body rotated, and became faster and faster. Suddenly, she flew up from the ground. Twelve beauties formed a circle, waved their jade hands, and dozens of blue ribbons rose out. It seemed that blue waves appeared in the hall. The girl flew over the ribbon in the air, her slender feet lightly, and her clothes were fluttering, just like a fairy in Lingbo.
The sound of the flute became faster and faster, and the figure of the woman in white danced faster and faster. Her plain hands were lingering in her skirt, and her skirt was flying. Her pair of light blue water eyes, which were as smoke as she wanted to speak, and the flowing light was flying. Her whole body was like a flower separated by fog, hazy and ethereal, flashing with beautiful colors, but it was so far away...
Her dancing posture is light and agile, her body is as light as a swallow, her body is as soft as clouds, her arms are as soft as boneless, and her dancing posture is like a lotus flying among flowers, like butterflies flying among flowers, like gurgling water, like the bright moon in the mountains, like the morning light in the alley, like the round dew on the tips of lotus leaves, making people feel like drinking a good wine, so drunk that they can't suppress themselves.
"good!"
After the dance, everyone in the hall applauded. The woman in white had crystal beads of sweat oozing out of her forehead and her chest was also undulating. However, even after such a vigorous exercise, she still behaved elegantly. She bowed and then took a small step and sat quietly next to the man in the python robe.
"I listened to the song and watched the mist, Guan Jinsheng, next, it's your turn."
The man in a python robe held the weak and boneless jade hand of the woman in white and played with it carefully. It was Li Chengdao. On his left hand, there were several young men who were young and full of vitality.
The man named Guan Jinsheng, who was named Guan Jinsheng by Lee Seung-dao, stood up confidently, walked to the attic to the window facing the street, looked down, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Your Highness, first of all, I would like to thank Dong Tianbao, a student from the Propaganda Department, for attracting so many customers for the [Datang Exchange]."
At this time, downstairs, the originally wide main road of Changle House was already crowded with people, and a particularly loud sound could be heard in it.
"...Don't be anxious, don't be anxious... Everyone can go to the exchange to buy lottery tickets... One number costs 10 cents... The prize is drawn in the evening... One first prize is awarded 100 guan... Ten second prizes are awarded 100 guan... The third prize is awarded 10 guan..."
Outside the main entrance of the Datang Exchange, a tall man was holding a loudspeaker and howling hard. When the crowded crowd heard his voice, he became even more restless, as if he was furious, and he was talking.
"You keep your word?"
"Is there really 100 coins?"
"There is such a good thing? You obviously lose money, I'm afraid it's not a scam..."
"Haha, I'll see if you can take out 100 coins. If you can't, I'll sue the official..."
"Why don't we try it? Anyway, it's only 10 cents. If you win the first prize, won't you have to work for 20 years?" [Ordinary people earn 2 to 3 jin of copper coins per year]
"Where can I use the first prize? I won the second prize for 5 years and I won the second prize has 10 places! Let's fight once?"
"I'll go, I'll try!"
...
In this way, the Datang Exchange burst into pieces on the first day of its opening.
Of course, the crowd after buying the lottery will not just leave like this. Everyone spent 10 cents. Some people even bought hundreds of cents for a higher probability of winning, waiting for the lottery. Who has such a big heart to leave?
At this time, a large number of exchange workers came out. They smiled and showed 8 teeth, all wearing uniform clothing - suits and trousers and leather boots.
This strange outfit attracted everyone's attention at the first time!
Can the clothes be separated from each other?
What material is this strange clothing, with clear lines and neat and smooth surface, and looks weird, but it seems to give people a very spiritual feeling!
...
Before anyone could see clearly, the guys in strange clothes walked into the crowd.
"Hello, let's understand the [Save] function of our exchange, the interest is very high... It's not you who give us interest... It's you who save money, we give you interest... It's really, I will never lie to you... It's also divided into current and regular... The interest rate for regular period is very high..." (In ancient times, money deposited money is exactly the opposite of today's banks. When depositors deposited money in money, money bank would collect interest from depositors based on the length of savings for depositors, while current banks would pay depositors interest based on the length of savings for depositors.)
"Hello, let's understand the insurance business of the exchange? Everyone saves 20 cents a month, about 240 cents a year... Once a major accident occurs, we will compensate you. For example, if you are sick and cannot afford medicinal materials, we can insure you 30 cents to 50 cents. Of course, it depends on the specific amount you pay every month... After paying for ten years, our exchange will return it to you at 25 cents a month. The specific period is..."
"Hello, let's find out about the pension..."
"Hello, this is the latest Tang coins issued by our exchange. Do you think it's exquisite? You can buy everything on the Tang market with it... What, you said you want to visit a brothel, can you use it? It's definitely OK! Which one can't be used? Tell us, let's close them tomorrow... You said I'm bragging, you'll know if you take the Tang coins and try it..."
...
The downstairs was swallowed by a noise, and the controversy was like going to the market.
"Dong Tianbao, how is the organizational structure of the Propaganda Department building? How many cities have they been laid?" Li Chengdao turned his head and looked at another tall and thin man.
"Return to His Royal Highness the Prince, all preparations for the Propaganda Department are ready. From managers, editors, relay personnel, to printing presses, raw materials, paper transportation... all work has been in place. This time you gave me an order to cooperate with the Ministry of Economic Affairs to fire the first shot of the Datang Exchange. I am very confident in myself and I believe that the task you assigned to the Propaganda Department will be successfully completed!"
"The agencies under the Propaganda Department have already covered all the key cities of Datang. They have been completed last year. Everyone is ready to go and are waiting for your order!"
Chapter completed!
