Daming: Let you do your best to manage, do you go to health?

Chapter 173
Seeing that the third child hadn't woken up yet, the second child Zhu Gaoxu just said: "What will be done and what will be done in this competition, and what is it for? Who can know better than our eldest nephew? And this is beautiful. , What does it mean to be beautiful? Our eldest nephew has the final say."

"Every time the imperial examination is held, we can talk about whether there are any high-ranking officials coming out, and then we can talk about whether the course is held well. But this thing was originally created by that kid Zhu Zhanji, and the standard of good or bad is in the hands of that kid , we didn’t know what to do before, so it’s not easy to look for it face to face. Now people have brought over the booklet, although the words are euphemistic, but we brothers can’t be ignorant.”

Apparently, the Han King Zhu Gaoxu had already understood what he meant to the Eunuch Zhao and his nephew Zhu Zhanji just now.

They were concerned about the face of their uncles, so they said this on purpose, which is also the reason why Zhu Zhanji didn't come over in person, but chose to let Zhao Quan come over.

They have given face and everything, if they still don't understand the meaning of it, then it really seems that the old man often babbles about the unreasonable things.

However, the third child still didn't react after hearing the words of the second child Zhu Gaoxu, and when he wanted to say something, he saw that the second child Zhu Gaoxu seemed to have understood everything, and said, "Stop talking, just Follow the instructions in this booklet."

Seeing the second Zhu Gaoxu say this, the third Zhu Gaosui thought about it and had no choice but to give up.

After carefully reading some of the 'suggestions' written on this booklet, the second and third child also began to make arrangements for these.

Ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

At this time, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui were sitting on the balcony, watching the opera performed on the stage in front of them.

Around the stage were some officials from the imperial court.

The second and third child have seen a lot of such performances recently.

Although some of the opera singers are really good and their voices are good enough, they can't keep watching anything.

In recent days, according to the primary election re-election that Zhu Zhanji made, it disgusted the two of them.

Although there are many operas and there are many types, but there are too many people, and there are only a few of them going back and forth.

However, they have seen enough, but the common people in the capital rarely have the time to listen to the opera for free.

After all, any form of entertainment is a luxury for the common people in such an era.

However, the operas that these people can listen to belong to the auditions and primary elections, and the performances at that time can be admitted at will.

But when it came to the re-selection stage and the final qualifying match, it was no longer something ordinary people could watch.

But even so, it is also a benefit for the poor people in the capital who may not have entertained once in their lives.

And after these poor people left the stage and could no longer watch the performances for free, these re-examinations and qualifying competitions also began to change to a ticket system.

Start selling tickets for the competition to the wealthy folks.

At the beginning, Zhu Gaoxu, king of the Han Dynasty, and Zhu Gaosui, king of Zhao, didn't understand why Zhu Zhanji did this, but now they understand.

Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui prefer to watch the ticket sales after these competitions that day compared to watching these actors' performances in this arena every day.

The re-selection at the beginning was okay. Although a lot of it was income, the price was still within their acceptable range.

But after the sales promotion of the opera competition qualifying competition started in the entire capital, the topics discussed by everyone in the capital are now focused on this competition.

What, this player has a good voice, that player has a good face, and which player has good moves, etc.
There is also the prediction of the final results of these competitions, especially among the rich women, the debate is even more lively.

Even the ladies of several families gathered to discuss these.

But the popularity is there, but there are not many tickets.

After all, the final stages are re-selection and qualifying.

The number of games is rare, and the number of people that a single venue can accommodate is also limited.

The Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui who held this competition also began to increase the price of tickets according to the direction Zhu Zhanji gave them at the beginning.

Even to the sky-high price of five 60 taels.

Five 60 taels, just to watch a play.

This is almost impossible in this era.

Fortunately, the popularity of this event reached its peak under the command of Zhu Zhanji.

The venue of the event is in the capital where the world's dignitaries gather.

Occasionally spending a lot of money is still acceptable to the rich and powerful.

But even so, it was hard to find a ticket in the elite circle of the entire capital.

Many people need to rely on their relationship to find Hanwang Zhaowang, or someone around them, and want to buy a ticket.

And in this process, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui also seemed to have found the feeling of high status and authority.

I found the meaning of my existence.

But that's not the point.

The point is, in this process, the vain money is constantly being collected.

A ticket costs 60 taels, 6000 tickets cost [-] taels, and [-] tickets cost [-].

After the entire re-selection and qualifying rounds are completed, according to their calculations, the income from the tickets alone is expected to reach an astonishing 60,000 taels!
60,000 taels!
Just a simple competition.

The 60,000 taels is not a small amount of income even in the eyes of his majestic King Han and King Zhao.

After the whole competition was held, the cost was not known if there was 20,000 taels, but now just one ticket has reached 60,000 taels.

This business, if they hadn't maintained their status as princes, they would have wanted to do it themselves.

That's it, it's just the income from tickets.

There is also income from drinks and side dishes, and income from advertising.

Compared with tickets, according to Zhu Zhanji's words, these are the bulk of the income.

It's just that because it's the first time it's held, the merchants in the capital haven't understood the value of it, so they don't earn much, but even so, they still get 30,000 taels of advertising revenue.

Most of them were invested by the branch of the restaurant that Zhu Zhanji opened in Nanjing.

According to Zhu Gaoxu and Zhu Gaosui's cognition, they both think that they will definitely lose money if they spend this money.

But until they heard that because of the advertisement during this competition, the restaurants, restaurants, post stations, etc. under the name of Mrs. Zhu Zhanji are now overcrowded for an unprecedented time.

Only then did they understand the power of these advertisements in this competition.

In particular, the advertising slogan has now reached an unprecedented level of dissemination in the entire capital.

Almost everyone can speak up.

This has increased the popularity of these businesses to a terrifying level.

It is even said that as a native of the capital, if you don't go to these restaurants for a meal, it will be considered a waste of time.

Under this series of publicity, the advertising fees invested in the early stage are nothing at all.

Although these advertising expenses are not small, there are quite a lot of results that can be achieved. These restaurants have almost established their trump card influence in the restaurant circle in the capital.

In such an era, these restaurants have almost become a cornucopia of daily money.

The most important thing is that in such an era of lack of information dissemination, the stability of its effect is beyond everyone's understanding.

It was not until this time that Zhu Gaoxu, king of the Han Dynasty, and Zhu Gaosui, king of Zhao, suddenly realized the effects of Zhu Zhanji's seemingly ordinary methods behind the scenes.

It also made the two brothers feel a little embarrassed about carrying out Zhu Zhanji's orders from the very beginning. Now, these suggestions for Zhu Zhanji are directly regarded as creed.

As long as Zhu Zhanji asked them to do what Zhu Zhanji said in the scriptures, they would implement it completely, without bothering to understand the reason behind it.

Because they understand, they don't understand at all.

Just go ahead and follow these suggestions.

Can't go wrong.

Even the effect is something they dare not even imagine.

Although until now, they still don't understand what Zhu Zhanji did all this for, but whatever.

Make money, this is the best effect.

According to their thinking, the entire imperial court collects so many taxes from the people every year, and it is not as fast as they do these errands.

Do a few more every day, this is hundreds of thousands of income.

At this time, Han Wang Zhu Gaoxu and Zhao Wang Zhu Gaosui, who were sitting on the main seat watching the performance below, were completely different from the audience around them.

The audience below watched lively, but the two brothers were discussing the next few competitions at this moment.

"Third son, you said that there are so many people grabbing tickets for this qualifying match. This will be the final and semi-finals that Zhu Zhanji was talking about. Shall we figure out a way to earn more money? We can't talk about this ranking How much money do we earn in the competition, and the semi-finals and finals still earn such a small amount of money?"

Listening to the words of the second child Zhu Gaoxu, the third child has also been thinking about this for the past two days.

"Yeah, I've been thinking for the past two days, if we still make such a small amount of money, aren't we losing money for nothing? But I still can't think of any good way."

Hearing this, seeing that the third child was thinking the same as himself, the second child Zhu Gaoxu also immediately talked about some ideas he had thought of.

"Look, that's what I think. You said that the tickets are only so small for the entire venue. If the two of us can change the venue and sell more tickets, wouldn't we be able to earn more money? Not only does the venue need to be bigger, but the venue also needs to be bigger. More seats should be arranged, and the price of the tickets should be set higher."

"I've heard that the tickets outside are priced at more than 60 taels, but our brothers only earned [-] taels for the tickets. It's too bad."

"But this place is really hard to find, and if we set the tickets too high, I'm afraid no one will buy them. Although it's the finals and semi-finals, according to what that kid Zhu Zhanji often said, always Just make some kind of gimmick."

Listening to the method that the second child came up with, the third child has also turned his mind very quickly recently, thinking in the direction that the second child had figured out, and soon came up with a good solution.

Then he said excitedly to the second child: "Second child, have you forgotten that we were still in Nanjing? When that kid Zhu Zhanji got married, how did their restaurants and restaurants in Nanjing become so popular?" Wake up? And the price of the food is ridiculously high."

"Why can they do it, but we can't?"

Listening to the question raised by the third child, the second child Zhu Gaoxu vaguely guessed what the third child wanted to express, but he really couldn't think of a specific way, so he hurriedly asked: "If you have a way, just say it, what's the point?" .”

Hearing this, the third child didn't pave the way here with him anymore, and said directly: "Second brother, didn't you just say where to find a suitable larger place? I think of one!"

"where?"

"The Royal Palace!"

"where?!!"

"The Royal Palace!"

Regarding the answer given by the third child, Zhu Gaoxu, who has always been 'famous' for his courage, couldn't help but widen his eyes at this time.

Palace!

Youngest boy, you really dare to think about it!
Palace!

Where is the palace?

Did you use it casually?
Not to mention a mere opera competition, it is an ordinary prince's wedding, and few of them can be held in the palace.

That is to say, the old man was the closest to their brothers at the beginning, so they were allowed to get married in the palace.

Although this idea is bold, it can even be said to be audacious.

But after thinking about it carefully, the second child felt that it was not impossible.

After all, it is not the old man who controls the court now.

If you tell the old man about this, the old man will definitely order someone to beat them out with a stick.

But now it is Zhu Zhanji who controls the court, and it is Zhu Zhanji who has the final say in the court.

According to his understanding of Zhu Zhanji's kid, this kid is a pragmatic person.

He only wants to be affordable if he doesn't want to lose face.

Just like this competition, people outside said that he was greedy for pleasure.

But look now, is this kid greedy for pleasure?
Just one ticket, all the expenses of the imperial court were earned back.

Even earn a lot more.

Coupled with the past contact and communication with this kid, if you discuss this matter with that kid, as long as they can offer a reasonable price, this kid will probably agree.

I thought that if the final of the competition was held in the palace this time.

God.

Do you dare to think about it?

Not to mention that you can still watch the finals, but just let them see what the palace is like, there are many people rushing to come.

Thinking of making such a big gimmick, the second child seemed to feel that it was not strong enough, and based on the third child's suggestion, he said again: "Look, we not only want to host the final in the palace, but we will also discuss with Zhu That boy Zhanji discusses it, get some ministers from the imperial court to participate, or just let that boy come over by himself, isn’t this a gimmick, this gimmick, it will be done?”

It has to be said that under the influence of Zhu Zhanji, the second child and the elder have undergone earth-shaking changes in their minds.

But it's really because I have seen too many public opinion methods that Zhu Zhanji made recently. An ordinary singing opera has made so many tricks for him.

After all, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black.
