Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy

Although the Tao family has a very large business, they have never set foot in one business, that is, the gambling house. This is the rule set down by the ancestors of the Tao family. It is definitely not the right way to lose one's family and property, so the Tao family not only does not open a gambling house, but also prohibits the Tao family from being contaminated with gambling.

Tao Lin noticed his father's embarrassment, so he took the initiative to say: "Your Highness does not know, our Tao family has always strictly abided by the rules set by our ancestors, and never set foot in the gambling house business."

Xiao Jie knew that they misunderstood what he meant, shook his head and said with a smile: "You have misunderstood, I am not asking you to set up lotteries, but to sell lottery tickets."

"May I ask Your Highness, what is a lottery ticket?" Hearing a new term, Tao Lu couldn't help asking in confusion.

Xiao Jie smiled slightly, and patiently explained: "Every year in the 'Spring Examination', many people lose their fortunes because of betting on the game, and their wives and children are separated. This is what the court does not want to see, so this year I Suggest to the emperor that gambling houses are strictly prohibited from using Cuju competitions to set up gambling games, and those who commit crimes against the wind will be severely punished."

Tao Lu nodded slightly, this is good governance.

Xiao Jie paused for a moment, then continued: "But people like to give a lottery to everything. If there is no lottery in the game, everyone may find it boring. Therefore, in order to increase the entertainment of the game, the father allows you to sell lottery tickets. One paper money, 200 million copies can be printed in one game, and you can print 600 million copies in total in three games, and then take out [-] coins in each game as the prize pool, and the prize pool will be divided among those who bet on the winning side The ten thousand coins in it."

Xiao Jie stopped abruptly at this point, everyone in the Tao family was born to be a good businessman, and they all calculated in their hearts that a lottery ticket costs ten cents, and if all 200 million lottery tickets are sold, it will cost twenty thousand coins , Take out [-] guan as a bonus, the Tao family can still earn [-] guan, after three games, it will be [-] guan.

Even Tao Lu was relieved. There are more than 200 million people in Luoyang. It is not difficult to sell these 200 million lottery tickets, and it is impossible for many people to buy only one lottery ticket. After all, there is a chance to share [-] yuan.The most important thing is that a lottery ticket costs only ten cents. Even if one person buys a hundred tickets at a time, it will not cost much.

But Tao Lu still has a doubt in his heart. Even if the Tao family sells out the 600 million lottery tickets, minus the bonus for sharing, they can only earn 10 yuan, which is not enough for the [-] taels of silver that the Tao family gave to the emperor. , but why does His Highness say that this is a business that can make a lot of money?

Xiao Jie seemed to see Tao Lu's doubts, and said with a smile: "In addition to selling lottery tickets, there is another way to sell advertising space to other businesses."

"Sell advertising space?" Tao Lu seemed to understand a new term when Xiao Jie popped it up.

Xiao Jie nodded and said with a smile: "Advertising means to advertise widely. The annual 'Spring Test' is a big event in Luoyang City. How many people go to watch the game, and how many businesses want to participate in this Show your face on important occasions to increase the popularity of your own products, and the length and width of the Cuju field are 0.23 feet (one foot is about 160), and the circumference is [-] feet long. If every eight feet is used as an advertising space, that is There are as many as [-] advertising spaces, and there are many wealthy businessmen in Luoyang who spend a lot of money. Presumably, they are willing to spend some money to show their faces in such a grand competition, and to advertise their products."

What Xiao Jie said made everyone in the Tao family nod repeatedly. They have been in the mall for a long time, and they naturally know that the smell of wine is also afraid of the deep alley. It's worth the money.

As Xiao Jie said, even if one of the 5000 advertising spaces is sold for 10 taels of silver, there is still [-] taels of silver, which is exactly equal to the money given to the emperor.

And more importantly, the emperor handed over such an important match to the Tao family, which is also a kind of trust in the Tao family, and it also shows the world that their relationship between the Tao family and the royal family is unusual, and this is the most precious thing. A sum of wealth is hard to buy.

Having figured it out, Tao Lu couldn't help but bowed to Xiao Jie: "Our Tao family will never forget the kindness your Majesty and Your Highness have shown to our Tao family."

"Master Tao is serious, but it's just a matter of little effort." Xiao Jie quickly helped Tao Lu up, but he was secretly laughing in his heart. If it wasn't for the rush of time and the lack of time to build a new stadium, for such a grand game, there would be more ways to earn money, what? Selling tickets, naming rights, soliciting sponsorship, selling licenses, selling merchandise, after all, fans' money is the best earned.

However, Xiao Jie did not forget to remind Tao Lu at the end that after the "spring test", there will inevitably be a craze for Cuju among the people. The Tao family can take this opportunity to build a large-scale Cuju field, hold some folk Cuju competitions, and sell lottery tickets You can also earn a lot of money from advertising and advertising, and you can continue to undertake the "spring test" every year in the future.

It’s just that Xiao Jie said that he would make changes to Cuju in the future. He asked the Tao family to adjust the length of the new Cuju field to 450 feet and the width to [-] feet, which is also the standard size of football fields in later generations.

Although Tao Lu didn't understand why Xiao Jie made such a fuss about Cuju, but since Xiao Jie had already spoken, he didn't ask any more questions, and said straightforwardly that he would definitely build a new Cuju field according to Xiao Jie's request.

After Xiao Jie explained his affairs, seeing that it was getting late, he got up and said he wanted to leave. Tao Lu was inconvenient to keep him, but he just said that he had to discuss some things with his clansmen, so he couldn't send His Highness far away.

Xiao Jie didn't think too much, and immediately got up to leave.

But I didn't want Xiao Jie to leave the noble living room of Tao's house, and there was an annoyed voice behind him: "His Royal Highness Qi is leaving now?"

As soon as Xiao Jie heard the voice, he knew who it was without turning his head, and he couldn't help laughing for a moment. No wonder the whole Tao family didn't come out to see him off. It turned out that it was to create a chance for himself and Tao Han to be alone, and it was really well-intentioned.

I also blamed myself for being so busy discussing with them about the "spring test" and Cuju that I accidentally left Tao Han in the cold.

Xiao Jie looked back at Tao Han, pretending to be surprised and said: "So it's Miss Tao. I haven't seen you just now, and I thought you weren't in the mansion today, and I felt a little disappointed."

Tao Han was so angry that his teeth were itching. This guy, who clearly guessed that he was hiding behind the screen, actually pretended to be stupid with himself.

Xiao Jie didn't wait for Tao Han to get angry, so he smiled and said: "Miss Tao, do you want to visit my Prince Qi's mansion? The princess has been thinking about you these days?"

Tao Han was even more angry. This guy obviously wanted to invite her to Qi Wangfu, but he insisted on moving sister Su Yao out.

"I still want to give Concubine Su's face, but I have my own carriage, His Royal Highness King Qi just go ahead, and I will arrive later." Tao Han seemed to be still angry, his tone a little arrogant.

However, Xiao Jie also knew that Tao Han was afraid of causing gossip, after all, this is the capital city, not Jiaozhou, and he hadn't officially married Tao Han yet, so it would be bad for both of them if they rode in the same carriage.

Xiao Jie smiled at Tao Han, and said: "Then I will go ahead and wait for Miss Tao to come to the mansion."

After saying that, Xiao Jie laughed, turned around and left, Tao Han looked at his leaving back, and secretly made up his mind in his heart that he must file a complaint with Sister Su Yao when he arrives at Prince Qi's Mansion, so that Sister Su Yao can treat him properly.
