LOL: I am a bad prince in Demacia

Throughout the afternoon, the residual heat caused by the band continued to ferment.

Many passers-by who attended the concert began to promote the band on their own initiative. In just a few hours, Garn Arem became a hot topic in Piltover.

Therefore, more and more people are beginning to look forward to when the next performance will be.

Lu Qi will naturally not miss the current popularity. Since the performance has started once, it will not be just once.

His plan is to do one show every two days in the short term and then slow down the pace of the show.

It was getting dark.

Xiacheng District, Zuan.

This place seems to be another world, and the excitement of the upper city has nothing to do with it. Even though someone had brought the news, it was like a pebble falling into a big lake, without causing a single ripple.

Both cities develop at their own pace, mostly without interfering with each other.

The upper town of Piltover is jointly run by councillors, while the lower town also has an underground master.

In a rooftop garden.

There are many fresh green plants planted here, which contrast with the colorful glass, and the lights fall on a discussion table.

All the gang leaders in the entire lower city are gathered here, about dozens of them.

And these ten people were looking in the same direction at this time.

At the main seat, Hilko was wearing a high-collared robe, with a relaxed face and a calm expression: "Is this your recent summary? The overall income has dropped instead?"

A little boss sat sideways and replied casually: "Of course, boss. Under your leadership, our lower city is developing prosperously. I think the overall decline in income means that we have gradually stabilized."

His posture was casual, and he didn't look at Hilko when he spoke.

Hilko thought that he might not have taught his subordinates how to write rules for a long time.

But he didn't care at the moment. After taking a look at the little boss, he said calmly: "For Xiacheng, stability means falling behind. I think you should reflect on it recently. I don't want to summarize it next time. Never hear bad news like this again.”

"Yes, boss."

The little boss just nodded and said, "I will write a review to you when I get back."

At this time, another small leader raised his hand and spoke: "There are still some unfinished matters in my gang. I think the meeting will end here."

"Yeah, I still have a lot of things to do over there."

Another little boss said the same thing.

The remaining people did not speak, but looked at Hilko together.

Hilko did not look at the three little bosses who were talking. He stood up, straightened his collar, and said calmly: "The meeting is over."

He could see that people were impetuous, so there was no need to continue the meeting.

Soon, the little bosses left one after another from the rooftop garden.

Hilko and Sevika walked out one after the other.

Sevika, who had watched the entire meeting, said at this time: "According to our predictions, the overall trend should still be growing. Now it is declining."

Hilko raised his hand, interrupted her next words, and said calmly: "It's normal. What rats like to do most is to steal oil. In the face of interests, over time, some people will lose their composure."

Sevika's face turned a little colder and continued: "A few days ago, my subordinates reported to me that Dames and the others have become unclean in their work. Not only have they expanded their manpower, they also seem to have made a lot of money in private."

Hilko's eyes flickered, but he didn't care, and asked instead: "Where is Jinx? What has she been doing recently?"

"You don't even know about her, let alone ask me."

Sevika replied angrily, and then said, "Now they almost don't take you seriously anymore, what are you still thinking about that blue-haired girl?"

"You're too nervous." Xilka smiled, glanced at her, and said in a cold tone, "They're just a few rats stealing oil. Since I can make them stand up, I can also make them kneel down. ."

In contrast, he really wanted to know what Jinx was up to recently.

It seems that I haven't been to his side for a few days.

That girl has a loose personality and loves to play. It is not uncommon for her to disappear for several days.

But Hilko found that he began to feel more or less worried?

Anyway, it was strange. Hilko changed the subject and said, "Is there anything else happening recently?"

Sevika thought for a while and said: "Recently, a force called the Wildfire Gang appeared out of nowhere. They have some technological means in their hands. They moved quickly and neatly, and two small bosses reacted, and they have been interfered by the Wildfire Gang. Business."

"Wildfire Gang"

Hilko recited the name and thought for a moment: "Check them, it's best to find out their origins."

"Yes." Sevika nodded, and then added, "Speaking of which, it's time for you to let that blue-haired girl do something. She seems to have been idle for a long time."

Hilko was quiet for a second and said, "Yes, I will."

Half an hour later.

Hilko pushed open the door of the office and saw a figure sitting on the sofa inside, bored.

Seeing this, his expression didn't change. After closing the office door, he walked to his desk and asked casually: "When did you come?"

"About an hour ago?" Jinx yawned, sat up, and stretched herself comfortably.

Hilko noticed that she was in a good mood, her face was a bit refreshed, her eyes were bright, and she seemed to be quite happy recently.

Maybe it was an illusion, but Hilko felt that he hadn't seen the happiness unique to this age in this girl's eyes for a long time.

He picked up a cigar, trimmed it, lit it, took a puff, spit it out and asked, "What have you been doing in the past few days?"

"Finding something interesting to do, didn't I tell you last time?"

Jinx said, thinking about it for a while, and then said, "Oh yes, I seem to have forgotten to mention it, but it's very interesting anyway."

"Really?" Hilko smiled lightly and wanted to ask what the interesting thing was.

But in the end, he didn't ask any questions. He remembered what Sevika had just said, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Recently."

"I guess I've been very busy recently." Jinx happened to speak at the same time, "So I came to talk to you first."

Before Xilka finished her words, she nodded: "Okay, I understand."

Jinx glanced at him and asked, "Is there anything you want me to do?"

"Not at the moment." Xilka replied calmly, "You are busy with your business. I will notify you if anything happens."

"Okay." Jinx smiled heartily, waved her hand and said, "Then I'll leave first, see you later."

Shirka smiled: "See you later."

Jinx pushed open the office door with relaxed and cheerful steps. As the door slowly closed, her back gradually disappeared from Xilka's eyes.

After taking a puff of the cigar and exhaling a cloud of mist, Xilka slowly put away the smile on her face.

But maybe even he didn't notice it, because the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised a slight arc.

This girl seems to be quite cheerful recently.

He's not usually a person whose emotions are contagious, but he still seems to be a little affected now.

He thought for a while, and the current matter could be solved even without her.

Then there is no need to do anything more.

In contrast, he was a little curious about what this girl was obsessed with recently, and she didn't explain it to him when she came back this time.

At the same time, a bar in Lower Town.

Three little bosses led by Damas gathered here, and they also invited another little boss named Kunda to the scene.

After Kunta entered the private room, he glanced around, with a cold face, stood and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

Dames lit a cigarette, took a puff slowly, and said, "Sit down first and let's talk slowly."

"I don't have that much time, long story short." Kunda sat down suspiciously, and one of them poured him a glass of wine, but he didn't take it to drink. He just frowned and looked at the three of them, waiting for them to speak.

Damus asked aloud: "How many years have you been following Hilko?"

"Seven years." Kunda did not refuse to answer, but he still looked at the three of them.

"Seven years, if you count the time, you are also the senior generation. It's longer than the time we have worked together."

A smile appeared on Damus's face and he said, "You have been living under someone else for such a long time, haven't you ever thought about breaking away from him?"

"What are you talking about?" Kunda frowned, "Without Silko, how could we be where we are now."

"Yes, you are right. I do not refute this statement." Damus looked at Kunda, as if he could see through his heart. "The development of the lower city is indeed inseparable from Hilko's contribution. But have you Have you ever thought that our current position was not given by him, but what we should have had?"

"He just established his foothold in this place earlier than us. We walked out of the crowd after him, so we must always be lower than him."

"I think you understand this feeling best. I remember that it was only seven or eight years ago that Hilko became the master of the lower city."

"Who was in charge of the lower city at that time? I remember it was Fandel. Yes, you were still working for Fandel at that time."

The words Damas narrated kept falling into the quiet box, and Kunta listened silently from beginning to end.

"Ever since I met you, I have always felt that you are a person with a particularly unique vision. So at that time, you decisively turned to Hilko."

While Dams was speaking, he had finished smoking a cigarette, and smoke was floating in the box. "Silko overthrew Fandel, and you successfully became one of his strong men. Sitting on a piece of territory, but it seems that... That’s it.”

"Over the years, there have been more and more people who are equal to you, but you have made no progress. I think you should have noticed it too."

Damus lit up a new cigarette, but this time it was not given to himself, but handed to Kunda, "Silko doesn't believe you because you are Fander's old subordinate."

Kunta took the cigarette and remained silent, still not speaking.

"I want to ask you, have you ever thought about it in all these years. If the person who stood up to overthrow Fandel was not Silko but you, then that position will be yours now."

Damus said with a faint smile.

Kunta said, "What's the point of talking about this now?"

"What I want to say is that it's not too late now." Dames kept a smile on his face, "If Hilko can sit in that position, so can we."

"I think you are fed up with the feeling of being controlled by others. Now that you are the most senior, you can be recognized by many people if you stand up. After getting rid of Hilko, from now on, we will make our own decisions. "

Kunta lowered his head, lost in thought, and his expression seemed to be undergoing a psychological struggle.

Seeing that he was still struggling, Dames continued: "Even after so many years, Hilko still wants to confront Shangcheng. With the speed of development of Shangcheng, I think you can also see that it is not wise to continue the confrontation. Act of."

"Every time they have a conflict, we are always the ones whose interests are harmed. Your territory is close to the Piart River. Because of this, I remember that you made a proposal to avoid conflicts with the upper city two years ago. But Hill Coe ignored it.”

"Just imagine why he gave that territory to you. If one day the conflict between the two sides escalates, the law enforcement officers of Piltover will choose where to attack as their first stop."

When Damus said this, he stopped talking.

Kunda's expression became a little gloomy. After a while, he clenched his fists, raised his head, and asked, "What do you plan to do?"

"There's no rush." ​​Damus smiled upon seeing this, raised his glass and signaled to Kunda, "Now we are on the same boat."

Kunta also raised his cup and clinked it with the three of them, his eyes twinkling.

Two days later.

The second concert came to an end, and there were far more viewers than the last time. The atmosphere continued to rise, the cheers rose and fell like waves, and the warm atmosphere dispersed the chill in the air.

With this level of enthusiasm, some of the nearby vendors selling fruits, snacks, and drinks were sold out almost in the blink of an eye, and the traffic of the shops on the surrounding streets also increased dramatically.

Now everyone can clearly see that this band that has only held two concerts, Jian Alem will directly become a hot new star in Pi City.

In the background.

Ivo looked at Lu Qi with admiration and said: "Your Highness is really far-sighted. In Pi City today, there are probably only a few people who don't know about Jian Alem."

After watching the first show, he had a hunch that this band was destined to be a hit in Pi City.

However, when I saw this day coming in an instant, I was still shocked.

At this time, at least 30,000 spectators gathered in the square outside. There are still more spectators who cannot squeeze in. The Stellar Plaza can no longer accommodate so many people, and a larger place must be found for the band.

You know, this is just a band that has just performed two shows.

After thinking for a while, Ivo said with a little worry: "Based on the popularity of the band, are the ticket prices for subsequent performances set too low? I think that even if the ticket price is higher, people will definitely be willing to accept it. ."

These two warm-up performances are free, but ticket sales will be launched for future concerts.

Ticket prices vary depending on the location. However, a ticket in the front row only costs five gold coins.

It can already be said to be a bargain price.

"The reason why we sell tickets is just to stabilize order." Lu Qi sat on the chair, calmly sipped his tea, and then continued, "I don't expect to make money from this, and the real place to make money is not here."

If the ticket sales mode is not started, the scenes of the next few performances can already be predicted.

The crowd crowded in without any order, and various accidents would inevitably occur.

Hearing this, Ivo asked in confusion: "What does your highness mean?"

"That's why I asked you to come." Lu Qi glanced at him sideways and said, "Next, we will launch a grand launch of band-related peripherals. For example, fan sticks, shoes and clothes of the same style. As long as there is popularity, We can easily make Pi City popular with one item."

After his words, Ivo will be greatly inspired.

His eyes lit up and he said: "I understand what Your Highness means."

This method seems to be easier to make money. If the ticket price is too expensive, there will definitely be disputes in the future.

If a band that is close to the people is no longer close to the people, it will inevitably lose some fans.

But the launch of peripheral products is different. Whether you buy it or not depends entirely on the individual. As long as a person likes the band, he will definitely buy some band peripherals.

Therefore, as long as the band becomes more popular, the peripheral products will be easier to sell.

"You helped me with publicity last time, so you helped me a lot." Lu Qi looked at him with a smile on his face, "So this time, I found you as soon as I had the opportunity. You will do the rest. Mainly responsible for the production of various peripheral things, creating revenue and sharing it 40-60 with you and me."

Iverton was overjoyed. He was flattered and bowed and saluted: "Thank you very much for your highness's promotion. I will definitely not let your highness down."

There is no doubt that with the band's current popularity, no matter what they do, it will be a lucrative business.

This is not the most important thing.

The most important thing is that from now on, he has an additional identity of becoming a partner with the prince.

This is the real value!

Ivo was glad that he took this matter seriously at first, otherwise he might have missed this opportunity.

Lu Qi thought for a while and then said: "Next, you go find a bigger venue for the band. If the site is suitable, just buy it directly. Then it will be made into an open space, the bigger the better."

"yes."

Ivo immediately took the order.

"Also, you should contact the owner of a music workshop in the past few days." Lu Qi then said, "This is also a good business. You can cooperate with them. Make guitars, basses, and drums in batches. , these are also a type of peripheral.”

There is no doubt that with the popularity of the band, three novel instruments have also attracted people's attention.

There will definitely be a lot of interest.

Ivo actually noticed these three instruments and nodded immediately: "I understand."

Soon, as the second performance came to a successful conclusion, the audience left with unfulfilled expectations.

But even after it dissipated, the residual heat of the concert still lingered, and the band has always been a hot topic among people.

Everyone can encounter it, and this phenomenon will not disappear in a short time.
