Chapter 1851: Fixed wages, new gameplay
In the meeting room of Prince Ji's mansion, Li Shen stood in the front with a baton in his hand, pointing at the board in front of him and speaking eloquently.
The group of playboys sitting below nodded frequently.
"I just talked about some of the team's training methods and rules, and the players must also understand the rules.
We can treat these players like craftsmen and pay them wages every month.
This way the players will have a guarantee, and more people will want to become players.
As for wages, how much do you think is reasonable per month?"
Li Shen asked Cheng Chusi and others.
He felt that the price he set would definitely be much higher, because the prices of players in later generations were very high.
Although it may not be very high at this time, he still doesn't have a clear understanding of the wages of the grassroots employees.
“Well… Your Highness Prince Ji, this is also our first time playing football, and we don’t know how much the players’ wages should be.
If calculated based on the salary of an average craftsman, the monthly salary would be between three hundred and seven hundred coins.
Just like the servants in our family, they only get 500 coins a month as salary."
Cheng Chusi was the first to answer. They didn't know much about it either.
"Yes, if we calculate it based on the work of the craftsmen in Prince Ji's Palace, it would probably cost one string of silver per month.
By this calculation, there are forty teams, and each team has at least fifteen people as King Ji said, which means six hundred people.
Each person earns 12 strings of cash a year, so 600 people would need 7,200 strings of cash a year, not including the cost of coaching.
If you count them all, it would be over ten thousand strings of cash a year." Tang Shanshi counted on his fingers.
When everyone heard that the prize was going to be tens of thousands of strings of cash, they immediately became a little uneasy.
Yuchi Baoqi stood up in surprise.
"Ten thousand taels? Isn't that too much? What's the difference between their performance of playing football and those actors?
They are just lowly people, why should we give them so much money? "
"Baoqi, don't talk nonsense. They are all from good families, how can they be of prostitute origin?" Yuchi Baolin immediately stopped her after hearing this.
These people were all recruited from ordinary people's families. They are all good citizens and their registered residence is also good.
Li Shen also frowned and said:
"Baoqi, don't say this carelessly in the future, otherwise it will affect our future plans to make money.
They are all from good families, how can they be classified as lowly?
If this is the case, who will be willing to continue playing football in the future? It will also affect the future marriage of these good family boys.
Don’t you know that the noble and the common cannot marry each other?
They make money for us, so we can't harm them.
Moreover, if there are promising young players with slave or lowly nationality, as long as they can play well, we can also help them change their nationality.
Remember? "
Although Li Shen is not a good person, he cannot do something that is ungrateful. He wants to turn people from good people into slaves when they make money for him.
That's too inhumane. Who would dare to play football in the future?
"Don't blame me, Your Majesty. It was my fault." After hearing what Li Shen said, Yuchi Baoqi quickly apologized, thinking that what Prince Ji said made sense.
Cheng Chuliang on the side interrupted:
"Your Highness is right. These people make money for us. Without them, who will play football? Are we going to play football?
We can't cut off our own source of income.
Although what they do is the same as actors, all for the entertainment of others, they are indeed from good families.
As the prince said, we need to get more people involved."
"Baoqi, it's really wrong for you to put her in a slave class. After all, it's for our benefit."
"That's right, that's right, Baoqi, you're going too far."
Several people criticized Yuchi Baoqi verbally and in writing, which almost ruined their plan to make money.
Yuchi Baoqi was helpless after hearing what he said, and bowed to the people around him.
"My dear brothers, I was wrong. I was wrong, okay?"
The few of them were quite familiar with each other and loved to play around. When they saw Yuchi Baoqi being deflated, everyone laughed.
After laughing, Tang Shanshi said:
"Your Majesty, I think the salary should be set at 300 to 400 coins first, and then rewards will be given based on performance.
The price for a good kick is higher, and the price for an average kick is lower.
This will also encourage these people to work harder during training.
There is room for salary increase in the future, what do you think, Your Majesty?"
Li Shen immediately nodded in agreement:
"Okay, I think this is a good idea. What do you think?"
Isn't this performance-based pay? It breaks away from the traditional big-pot model, where more work means more pay, and things are put to good use, which does not disappoint those who work hard.
Leave those who are just filling in the gaps and trying to take advantage of the situation no chance to take advantage.
After a quick glance around, everyone nodded, and Li Shen made the final decision:
"Okay, then let's do as Tang Shanshi said.
Now, let me tell you some details about our competition.
I have tentatively decided on three ways to play the game.
The first is simply winning or losing, which includes wins, losses, and draws.
The second method is to give the ball a name given by the king.
The third method is to play by the number of goals.
However, in the early stage, I only plan to prescribe the first method, betting on victory, defeat and draw.
I believe this is not difficult to understand, they bet on who will win the game, or bet on a draw. "
"Your Highness, why didn't you lose the bet?" Fang Yiai asked curiously.
"Are you stupid? If you lose the bet, doesn't that mean you're betting on the other side to win? Use your brain when you speak next time."
Li Shen cursed angrily at his lack of resistance.
Why is this guy so stubborn? No wonder he was bullied by Gao Yang. Li Shen even suspected that he was Fang Xuanling's son.
Fang Xuanling was such a shrewd man, how could his son be so stupid?
Fang Yiai lowered his head quickly after being scolded by Li Shen. He also knew that he had asked a stupid question.
"Your Majesty, how do you play the last two methods? Why not release them all? That way, there will be more methods and more people will participate, right?"
Yuchi Baolin asked.
Li Shen shook his head:
“The latter two methods are for us to use as surprise tactics in case someone tries to imitate us in the future.
In the early stages, because no one knew the team or the players, betting on win, lose or draw was enough.
But in the later stages, even if the coaches and players were replaced, many people who specialize in this field would be able to make a rough guess.
At this time, we use the second trick, which is to give the ball.
If a very strong team plays against a very weak team, if we bet on the outcome, we will definitely choose the stronger team.
At this time we choose to concede the ball. The strong team can concede one, two, or even three goals.
The so-called handicap means... if the score is..." Li Shen explained in detail to everyone how to play the handicap game, and then continued:
"This will add a lot of variables without affecting the progress of the game, and we won't lose money, killing two birds with one stone.
We make the rules, and our purpose is to make money.”
"Great, really great, the prince is indeed a role model for our generation, with brilliant means, planning and winning battles thousands of miles away.
We are not as good as them. "
(I said yesterday that I was touched, thank you for the more than 100 words, but the spitting in the comment section almost wet my phone.
I feel like I'm vomiting in my face even through the phone screen.)
