Chapter 1849 Explaining the Money-Making Plan
The person who spoke was Cheng Chusi.
His father Cheng Yaojin told him that these underground casinos are deeply rooted and ordinary people cannot get in.
Unless it is ordered by Your Majesty.
Li Shen actually also found the situation quite tricky. He didn't want to cause trouble everywhere, so he just hoped that these people would not cause him trouble.
Li Shen thought for a while but couldn't come up with a good solution, so he could only start the second option.
“Let’s put this matter aside for now, and then we’ll talk about the second thing, gathering the team.
Last time I asked you to gather them all in Chang'an City for training, have you recruited them?"
"Your Highness, the news has been passed on. Some teams that are far away have not arrived yet. So far, only 27 teams have arrived.
We have placed them outside the city and set aside an area for them to train.
The rest may take more than a month.”
Yuchi Baoqi said.
There are thirty-two teams in total. It is not easy for the farthest south to come here as the journey is long.
Those who are closer may have arrived a long time ago.
Li Shen also knew that he couldn't act too hastily.
"Well, don't worry. All the food, clothing, housing and transportation expenses of these people will be borne by Prince Ji's Mansion.
Give them good food and shelter so that they can train well.
The fact that they can stand out from two thousand states shows that they are good at playing football.
A simple training ground was built outside the Prophet City for them to train and spread the news.
We will arrange for these teams to play friendly matches in a while. Anyone who wants to watch can watch for free.
Let them spread the word.”
"Your Highness, do you mean to do a good job of advance publicity?" Tang Shanshi asked.
As expected of the Minister of Civil Affairs, he has a good business acumen.
"Yes, that's the truth.
Not only these thirty-two teams, I also have a Ji Wang Mansion representative team participating.
You can also form a team, but you need to be strong, otherwise you will embarrass yourself.
Maybe your majesty will also have a team participating in the competition, and I plan to gather forty teams.
This way, there will be more teams, more games, and we can make more money.”
Li Shen’s guard battalion plays football every day, so they should be pretty good at it, and he is also ready to join in.
The point is that the more teams participate, the more matches there are, and the more matches there are to gamble on.
Forty teams play a round-robin tournament, two games a day, and the tournament can last a long time.
"Yes, with more games, we can earn more from betting on football." Cheng Chuliang said happily.
Who would complain about earning little?
“Your Majesty, why don’t we try betting on football when we play the friendly match?
Be prepared in advance so that if we find any problems, we can correct them in time.
I wonder what Your Majesty thinks?"
Yuchi Baoqi suggested.
"Yes, we should give it a try in advance so that we can find any problems in advance."
"That's right. If we wait for all the teams to arrive, it will probably take another month."
After hearing Yuchi Baoqi's suggestion, everyone was ready to do a great job.
Li Shen did not expect that the morale of these people would be so high, but this was also a good thing, so he immediately nodded in agreement.
“Okay, let’s give it a try first. There are many merchants in the industrial park, more than a thousand people.
So we set up the gambling house there.
We don't need a big shop, we don't do other gambling business.
This king will have the paper mill make a special kind of paper, and have the printing house print a few simple styles.
When the time comes, just have someone write it down with a pen. I will send the eunuchs from the palace over there.
This is to avoid situations where someone fills in the information at will or makes exceptions.
Every time we will announce the team information for the next day's game and the odds of both sides one day in advance.
This also requires a shopkeeper who knows mathematics, and I will arrange that.
The minimum bet we accept is five hundred coins. I am not interested in counting ordinary people's money penny by penny.
This is the general process. Do you have anything to add? "
Li Shen held a small stick in his hand and explained the mind map on the board one by one to this group of playboys.
Li Shen took everything into consideration, from anti-counterfeiting to the credibility of the personnel.
As for the process of the competition, it is not important. If it really doesn’t work, we can decide it by drawing lots.
The playboys listened attentively, trying hard to remember what Li Shen said in their hearts. It would be great if they had a small notebook.
"Your Highness has already explained it in great detail. We have nothing to add. If there are any problems after the implementation, we can make changes."
Cheng Chusi said while looking at the board.
"Your Highness, do we need to charge a fee to watch the game? This will also cost a lot of money."
Cheng Chuliang asked.
"Chu Liang, you can't always focus on the immediate benefits. Right now we are just a temporary venue and we don't charge any fees.
And the more people watching, the better.
We must first lay a good foundation among the people and make everyone interested in it.
By the way, when you go back, let those teams come up with their own team names.
Remember not to repeat yourself, and don’t call yourself the best in the world, or you’ll lose and be embarrassed.”
Li Shen reminded.
"Yes, yes, yes, we need a name, otherwise how can we bet on football? We won't even know which one will win.
The prince is really thoughtful. "
After Li Shen said this, everyone nodded. They almost forgot about this matter.
Li Shen was speechless. He still needed to remind himself of such things. But since he had already reminded him, he would say a few more words.
“In addition to the names, there should also be some information about the team, such as where they are from and how old they are.
What did you do in the past, how long have you played football, etc.
This will also give those who want to bet on winning or losing a rough basis.
The more detailed the better. Write down his height and age. No matter if it is useful or not.
Later, I will also write down the team’s record, how many games it won and how many games it lost.
understand? "
After hearing this, several people nodded in confusion. Although they were still a little confused, they remembered what King Ji asked them to do.
No matter what, as long as King Ji said to do it, they would do it. They knew that King Ji was smarter than them.
There must be a reason for what you ask them to do, and it will definitely help in their pursuit of making money.
"Does anyone have any questions?" Li Shen saw everyone nodding and asked after looking around.
"Um...I have a question." Cheng Chubi, the third son of the old Cheng family, raised his hand weakly.
Eighteen-year-old Cheng Chubi now hangs out with his older brothers.
"What's your problem, little bitch?" Li Shen asked with a smile.
“Your Majesty, no one understood this team at the beginning, and the odds of winning or losing were fifty-fifty.
But when the friendly match is over, or the game lasts for a long time, everyone will know who is stronger and who is weaker.
By that time, these people will definitely buy strong teams, so won’t we lose money? "
