Chapter 252: Persistence in making money

The old man came to him mainly for three things.

The first thing is, what has he been doing these past few days?

The second thing is to continue making money.

The third thing is the situation.

Shen Yian did not hide the reason why he and Ye Liyan disappeared in the past few days, and told Shen Cangtian truthfully. After all, the two of them were really practicing in seclusion.

"Cultivation in seclusion? Has your strength improved again?" A ray of light bloomed in Shen Cangtian's eyes.

"Forehead..."

To say that I am not diligent is a bit of a lie. If I say that I am diligent, I am not very diligent.

Shen Yi'an hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand to use his index finger and thumb to gesture at an almost invisible gap: "Back to my father, I've probably improved this much."

Zhao Hai pursed his lips unnaturally and suppressed the smile.

Shen Cangtian took a deep breath and asked directly about Ye Liyan's condition. He learned that everything was fine and didn't ask too much.

The conversation quickly turned to making money.

After Shen Yian heard his old man's idea, he decisively rejected it.

The old man wanted to repeat the successful case last time, but it was impossible. This auction mainly took advantage of the Baihua Club and the conflicts between the local aristocrats of Tianwu City and the wealthy businessmen and gentry from other places to achieve great success.

Even if there is a grand event like the Hundred Flowers Fair held on the day of the auction, the effect will be greatly reduced compared to the first time.

These rich guys are all human beings. How could they be cheated a second time if they were cheated once? If someone knew they were cheating but still jumped, he could only comment in four words: It’s great to be rich.

After listening to Shen Yian's analysis, Shen Cangtian nodded and couldn't help but sigh.

"Father, actually..."

As soon as Shen Yian opened his mouth, Shen Cangtian's eyes focused on him, and he knew that Lao Liu had many ideas for making money.

"Actually, thanks to the popularity of chess, I came up with a good idea." Knowing that the old man was short of money to expand the army, Shen Yian slowly revealed his previous plan.

After the Hundred Flowers Club, the chess trend began to spread in Daqian. As the starting point of Tianwu City, the wave of chess in the city has already reached a climax. You can always see people setting up small tables in the streets and alleys, surrounded by people. There is a circle of people, and you can hear people discussing chess from time to time while walking on the road.

After a period of fermentation, some chess geniuses will always emerge. After all, they are geniuses. What do they desire most? They desire to be noticed and to let everyone know their strength. Therefore, the chess competition appears, just like an auction. Their old Shen family It is the organizer and spreads in the name of the royal family.

He has chosen the scope of the first chess competition, covering Tianwu City and several surrounding satellite cities. After layers of screening, the top three in each region will compete in the finals in Tianwu City. He believes that the excitement of this competition will never be greater. Like Baihua Club, once the news spreads, it will definitely attract many outsiders.

Shen Yi'an has even thought about what the prize will be. Just like the third child, the leader will receive a jade chess set, a certificate, and a royal certification as the "chess king" title. It's simple yet powerful.

They are useless anyway, and the total cost of these things is not much.

Hearing this, Shen Cangtian sat up slightly, obviously interested. The chess competition can make old Shen's parents look good, but it can't make money.

Are there any registration fees for those contestants? If there is no limit on the number of applicants, a lot of money can indeed be collected, but this price needs to be discussed. The sickle he harvests is aimed at the wealthy businessmen and gentry, not ordinary people.

After hearing the old man's doubts, Shen Yian shook his head and smiled.

The chess competition is just a gimmick. To make money, you have to start from other aspects. The simplest and most crude way is chess-themed peripherals.

"Chess-themed peripherals?" Shen Cangtian frowned slightly, pondering the meaning of this word.

"Father can be understood as other things related to chess, such as chess-shaped cakes, clothes and accessories related to chess elements." Shen Yian explained.

"I understand." After hearing the explanation, Shen Cang suddenly understood the meaning of the chess peripherals.

Build a chess-themed plaza, chess-related shops, food stalls, etc. around the competition venue. The price is just a little expensive. The main purpose is to have a large amount of food. If a chess competition is held in the future, it can be rented to "Youyuan people" at a high price. Just collect the money.

"Yeah, not bad." Shen Cangtian nodded and agreed with Shen Yian's idea, but compared with the income from selling chess, it was still too little.

Shen Yian continued to talk about the next way to make money.

Just two words·Lottery!

There is still some inventory of the chess sets that were sold before, which is not enough for the craftsmen to rush to work.

The first thing to do in the competition is to build momentum and let everyone know that there is a chess competition and you must be prepared.

When the momentum is almost built, we will directly launch a lottery game, and draw lots to win jade chess, or even joint chess.

The lottery is temporarily limited to one hundred lots per person, and the price has yet to be determined. You must know that an ordinary jade chess set has been sold for a thousand taels of silver, not to mention a co-branded chess set, which is enough to inspire everyone's gambler's heart.

If one lot is priced at one tael of silver, and hundreds of thousands of people buy it, it will cost hundreds of thousands of taels. If a few more games are held, it will cost hundreds of thousands of taels of silver.

If done correctly, it can be more profitable than an auction.

Shen Cangtian frowned subconsciously after hearing Shen Yian's idea. Lao Liu's idea covered almost everyone. There will always be some opportunistic guys who can't stand the temptation and want to take a chance to change their lives, so they borrow money everywhere. Some lunatics even Will sell his wife and son...

To put it bluntly, it was him, the emperor, who led the people of Daqian to gamble one after another.

Da Qian already has extremely strict laws on casinos and gambling houses, and Wu Wei Si is relentless in cracking down on black casinos. In this way, isn't this just him, the emperor, backhandedly slapping himself in the face?

According to what Lao Liu said, this is indeed a very good way to make money, but it is not what he wants.

We can hold a chess competition and sell those chess peripherals.

Hearing that the old man denied his idea of ​​drawing a lottery, Shen Yi'an was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what his old man meant. If it is misrepresented by someone with intentions, it will indeed have a bad impact and lead to a very bad head.

Let’s get back to the topic, the chess competition can be held, but it needs to be carefully discussed to avoid any mistakes.

Shen Yian was originally afraid that he would be responsible again, but he was relieved when he heard the old man say that he would find someone to make arrangements.

After chatting about chess, Shen Cangtian asked, "Have you heard about the Liaodong incident?"

Shen Yian nodded and saluted: "Go back to my father, I have heard about it."

After a pause, Shen Yian said again: "Father, I dare to ask, is that gold mine real or fake?"

He believed that the iron mine was real, but that the gold mine was something he thought was wrong.

Shen Cangtian chuckled: "What do you think?"
