is there any other way to get data from database?

I've table on mysql and i want to show one of the field, its the id field on my email layout on laravel. the id field consist some random code generated by the rand() function.

and I've tried this way,

but, the return value on the email view is 0

//this is what i wrote on the email view

<td align="left" class="esd-block-text es-p15t es-p10b">

i expect the output is the id from the id field on database. But it turns out to be 0.

any idea why?
