Chapter 720 Chang'an Ticket
Finally, the money comes! Xue Zhi's eyes are bright and "I hope the principal will give me advice!"
"I call this thing the 'Chang'an Piao'."
"What is the Chang'an vote?"
Li Mu took out a piece of cardboard from his sleeve and handed it to Xue Zhi, saying, "It's this thing."
Xue Zhi took it in his hand and looked at it carefully. This was just a piece of paper, and there was no strange thing. The principal called it "Chang'an Pick". Where is the highlight of this Chang'an Pick?
Li Mu pressed his finger on the Chang'an ticket and rubbed it hard for a few times. A magical thing happened. A pattern appeared on the Chang'an ticket, which was a picture of a mouse.
"It's so amazing!" Xue Zhi was stunned. He picked up the Chang'an ticket and looked at it carefully. Even looking at it, he couldn't tell how the mouse was drawn on it, and there was no trace at all.
"This kind of ink is my latest invention. It will only appear when you rub it hard. Only when you master this formula in the whole world, no one can imitate it." Li Mu popped up a piece of paper and said, "My plan is to use this ink to draw patterns on paper, just like this mouse, or money, or even any shape. Different patterns correspond to different bonuses. Chang'an tickets are only issued in Chang'an, priced at ten cents per piece, and set up prizes. First prizes are 10 cents per piece, second prizes are 10 cents per piece, third prizes are 10 cents per piece, fourth prizes are 10 cents per piece, fifth prizes are 10 cents per piece."
"Those who win the prize are as little as they don't lose money, and those who earn tens of thousands of times more than ten times more. Those who don't win the prize can't lose much money. They just think that they donated a sum for the Sales Department, just ten cents. Even Liba, who is a coolie in West City, won't feel sorry for him. What do you think?"
"This..." Xue Zhi looked at Li Mu and thought to himself, is this marquis crazy? Do you know that a hundred guan is ten thousand times the amount of ten cents? You can win a hundred guan by buying a Chang'an ticket, and you can pay ten thousand times the amount of money once. How stupid is it?
"Mr., this seems inappropriate."
Li Mu looked at him, "Why is it inappropriate?"
"The students understand what the principal thinks. There are only a few problems, one is the issue of this publicity."
"There is a Datang Daily. It will be known to everyone in a few days. Baiguan is not a small amount of money to anyone. As long as there is a lucky person, you will know the news within a day." Li Mu looked at Xue Zhi and said, "Can no one come here for this ten thousand times interest rate spread?"
"What the principal said is very true, but there is still another problem." Xue Zhi was not suppressed by Li Mu's momentum and continued to say, "The population of Chang'an City is one million, covering 108 yards. If the Chang'an tickets were sold, they would be made by the people of the Sales Bureau. The Sales Bureau did not have so many people at all."
"You can let the newspaper seller sell at the same time, or you can set up an agent in each of the 108fangs, and the problem is easy to solve."
"What about the prize redemption? How to solve the problem of the prize redemption? Also, how many awards are set? What if the sales are not good and the income is not enough, have these principals thought about it?"
"Of course I thought about it." Li Mu explained, "Redeem the prize must be safe. When redeeming the prize, you must make a cloth pocket and put people in it, leaving only a pair of eyes and nostrils, so no one can recognize it. The award is set up in the unit of tens of thousands of dollars, and there are no one who can pay for the prize three times a month. There are no need to worry about losing money in the lottery. Chang'an City has a population of millions, and there are many people who are willing to spend ten cents, and some rich young men are not the same.
I will only buy one. Suppose that 100,000 pieces can be sold in each period, and each piece costs ten cents, the income is 1,000 jin. After deducting 100% of the cost and 15% of the labor, there are still 750 jin left. In 750 jin, I will get a 100 jin first prize, 100 jin second prize, 100 jin third prize, 100 jin fourth prize, and 100 jin fifth prize. This is only 500 jin, and the net profit is 250 jin!"
"Three periods a month, that's seven hundred and fifty cents. This is just a way of playing, a conservative estimate. It's basically a sure thing to earn a thousand cents a month in the future." Li Mu looked at Xue Zhi and said, "And look, this Chang'an ticket has two sides. Only one side is needed to display the pattern, so what about the other side?"
Xue Zhi was not a waste of time at the Tang Dynasty Technical School. When he heard this, his eyes lit up and said, "Students understand the principal's meaning. On the other hand, we can follow the example of Datang Daily and advertise!"
"Odd!" Li Mu's voice was full of seduction. "Think about it, the Tang Dynasty Daily must be bought by literate people. They bought it to know what happened in Chang'an City. This limited the customers, the shopkeepers of the gentry students and vendors. They would buy the Tang Dynasty Daily. The peddlers and barons were not willing to support their families. They didn't care about the peddlers and barons, and they didn't have the heart to read. They would not buy it. But Chang'an tickets are different. Who doesn't want to make a profit of ten thousand times? It's not expensive. If you get a senior, one hundred coins are enough to accommodate a family business. There will definitely be more people who buy it. Each issue of 100,000 copies, and only one million people in Chang'an City. In other words, printing your own advertisements on this Chang'an ticket is ten times better than that of the Tang Dynasty Daily!"
"We hold an auction for each issue. The higher the price, the lowest estimate is that someone pays the printing fee? Isn't this a profit?"
Xue Zhi's eyes were already shining, and he kept nodding, "The principal is indeed a magical strategy, it is really feasible." Suddenly he was stunned, shook his head, and said, "Principal, there is another question. We sell this Chang'an ticket, what if others follow suit?"
"Imitate it?" Li Mu laughed and said, "Who I wish I could follow it? The key to Chang'an vote is that others cannot imitate it. Only I can make this kind of ink. Others can imitate it at will. As long as he has the ability, if there is such talent, I don't mind him making money."
Xue Zhi stared at Li Mu blankly, looking at the confidence radiant from his face, and his soul was taken away by him. This is the principal, what aura, how arrogant, how arrogant, how much.
Suddenly, Li Mu's expression changed and he said fiercely, "I have already initiated the report to Your Majesty and ordered the Xiefeng Court to legislate that all coupons are under the jurisdiction of the bank. Anyone who privately purchases coupons will be punished for treason without the bank's permission. Who dares to imitate and kill his whole family!"
Xue Zhi was so scared that he trembled and said tremblingly, "Principal, is it a bit like doing this..."
"What a big deal?" Li Mu stared at Xue Zhi and said, "This group of merchants are profit-oriented! They are unable to find a way to imitate me. In the past, I didn't care about them, so they missed me. I didn't care about this in the future. I have no idea what happened. I have to do it myself and want to beg for food from behind me, but there is no door left! Besides, what is the money we make for? Is it to put it in our pockets? That's for the children! This is called charity, do you understand?"
Xue Zhi swallowed and said to himself, "That's what you said, but Principal, you really don't see the meaning of charity at all, just like a rogue man playing tricks on the streets."
"The Chang'an ticket will be printed in a secret place. On the first, eleventh and twenty-one of each month, the person will be sent by the Queen Chen of the West Factory. The next day, it will be distributed to various stores for sale. The accounts will be straightened out clearly, so don't think about greedy for money in your mind! Remember five words, accumulate and make a lot of money!"
Leaving this plausible words for Xue Zhi to think deeply, Li Mu went to the front yard to talk to Zheng Guanyin and his daughter for a while, and then left the Sales Department.
I passed by Dongshi and bought two boxes of rouge, and planned to go home to give it to Bai Qiaoqiao and Jin Chen. The two rouges were exactly the same, but there was a jade hairpin in Bai Qiaoqiao's portion. Thinking that Bai Qiaoqiao might be happy when he saw that he had more and more jade hairpins, Li Mu also giggled foolishly. In fact, Bai Qiaoqiao had never cared about these things, just to make him happy, but isn't love just like that? He is either crazy or stupid, and he wants to be stupid together. Li Mu lives a life, not a scheming.
"parking!"
Suddenly, he heard a scorn outside. Before the coachman could get a conversation, the iron whip fell into it and came in like a serpent. Li Mu quickly dodged and dodged. The carriage was caught by the seedlings. When the whip was pulled back, it disappeared along with the roof of the carriage.
"Who is so bold that he dares to hit the car of the Marquis of Luoyang?"
Just as a group of patrolmen passed by, they saw this happening, and immediately surrounded him. They raised their spears in their hands and pointed them at the perpetrator.
"stop!"
When Li Mu saw the whip, he knew who was coming. He quickly stuffed the two boxes of rouge under his seat, so he delayed a moment and let the officers surrounded the people. He hurried out of the carriage, and the officers saluted one after another. Li Mu stopped the assaulter's horse and said, "Everyone, don't be excited. This is my wife, the fourth wife who is married by the Ming media. The couple are having fun, and they are all dispersed."
"Marquis..." The leader was not relieved, and Li Mu took out a ingot from his arms and threw it over. "I'm talking so much nonsense, get out of here and take my brothers to have a drink."
"Hey, thank you for the reward of the marquis." A big ingot is ten taels of silver. The servants who were patrolling the city couldn't make so much money in two months, so they didn't even have time to ask, and they bowed and returned.
Li Mu turned around, looked at the woman in red immediately, and opened her arms and said, "Madam, hug?"
"Who is your wife!" Zhang Tianai glared at Li Mu and said, "I'll ask you, the woman in the family is the one who kidnapped you and the one who suffered so much?"
"Uh..." Li Mu laughed dryly and said, "Have you seen it? Oh, this matter is a long story."
"Needless to say, I've killed her!"
"Ah," Li Mu's heart skipped a beat, and then he smiled again, saying, "It's okay, just kill me."
Zhang Tianai jumped off the horse and said, "Why are you indifferent? She is also your woman... Although, although she has no status, how can you be so ruthless? I knew you were such a person, and I would never like you!"
Li Mu reached out to pull Zhang Tianai's hand, but she avoided it. Li Mu reached out to him again, then grabbed her arm, "If I get angry with you, you have to blame me. You complained on both sides, what should I do?"
"Then you are ruthless."
"Oh, I'm not ruthless. I know you're angry. How can I not understand my woman? You are hard-mouthed and soft-hearted. You know she is my woman. You care about my feelings. No matter how angry you are, you can't do such cruel things." After saying this, there was still a little sentence in your heart. Of course, he knew his woman, and Jin Chen also understood. Jin Chen has now moved the universe to the third level. Even if his body skills are lacking, he can't beat Zhang Tianai, and he is still more than enough to run. Besides, with Qiaoqiao here, how could they fight?
Zhang Tianai didn't know what Li Mu was thinking, and just thought that his lover was praising him. He was happy. Seeing Li Mu's look like he was accepting beaten and punished, his anger subsided. He put away the whip, held his hand, and angrily said, "You just grasped my temperament and bullied me."
Suddenly, I saw many people around me looking at it, and my face turned red. I glanced at the carriage that was broken and wanted to pull Li Mu into the carriage.
There are two boxes of rouge on the car! Zhang Tianai likes rouge the most!
Li Mu quickly grabbed her and said, "Madam, what are you afraid of! I insist on calling the people of Chang'an City, everyone knows you. We are not afraid of seeing you, it's not far away anyway, let's go back."
"This..." Zhang Tianai didn't expect Li Mu to say this, and she was very moved. Thinking about it, she was the fourth wife who was just married by his mediator. What are you afraid of? Just look at it, at most she said that she was a bit arrogant, but being able to be arrogant with her husband means that she is favored?
Thinking of this, Zhang Tianai didn't care anymore. He held Li Mu in one hand and the horse in the other, asking the carriage to follow him, and strode towards the phoenix and phoenix.
But Li Mu felt a little awkward. Zhang Tianai was walking fast, so he had to follow closely. This reminded him of a poem by Xin Qiji, "The left is Huang and Qingcang," he happened to be on the left. Is the girl hunting and leading a big yellow dog?
"Let's go? Are you walking so slowly? Qiaoqiao said she welcomed me and prepared delicious food."
"Hey, go!"
Li Mu quickly trotted for two steps and thought to himself, let’s just be a big yellow dog, what are your own wife?
After a while, he arrived at the door. What surprised Li Mu was that Jin Chen was standing at the door to greet him. Li Mu subconsciously glanced at Zhang Tianai's expression, without looking angry. He understood in his heart that he was being put on a trick. But how did they reconcile?
"When I parted with you, I escaped to Zhangjiaji and met Tianai." Jin Chen whispered as he passed by.
"Ah." Li Mu nodded and didn't ask too much. It would be fine if he asked too much. If he asked too much, he would cause trouble.
As soon as I crossed the threshold, the coachman's voice sounded behind me, "Marty, I forgot the rouge you bought for my wife!"
Li Mu suddenly felt like he had a hole in his mouth and froze. Jin Chen and Zhang Tianai looked at him together. Jin Chen didn't say anything, but Zhang Tianai frowned and said quietly, "Husband is so amazing. I guess I will come. I know I like rouge, so I bought it in advance. I have to see what kind of rouge my husband bought for me!"
Li Mu turned around and glared at the coachman, laughing and said, "I bought it for Qiaoqiao."
"Oh, is that?" Zhang Tianai had already turned on the rouge out. "Qiaoqiao has never been very concerned about rouge and water powder, and has never asked for it. How could you remember? Even if you buy it for Qiaoqiao, there is no need to buy two copies the same..." Seeing Jin Chen's eyes full of uncontrollable affection, she added, "Oh? It seems different, this box has more jade hairpins!"
