Chapter 35: Keju League
"What kind of business is it?" Gao Yanei was puzzled, isn't this just a thing.
Wang Xiao said slowly: "Are there many people in Bianliang City who like to play Keju?" ”
"A lot."
"Is there a lot of money to bet on the winner when you play Keju?"
"A lot."
"Do you like to watch Keju competitions, and are you willing to spend more money for them?"
"A lot."
Gao Yanei waved his hand impatiently, "What do you want to do, just say it." ”
Wang Xiao put down the wine jug and looked serious, "I want to start a Keju League." It's just that this local personnel, team building and everything in every aspect is very troublesome. If there is the help of the Yanai and the palace marshal, it will naturally come naturally. ”
"Keju League, what is this?" Gao Yanai was very interested in playing Keju and couldn't wait to ask.
Wang Xiao talked in detail about the so-called Keju League at the wine table. It's like inviting people with heads and faces in Bianliang City to come forward and form their own teams. Then how many teams come together to form a league. Every seven days, you will play a round-robin match, and then earn points according to the win, and then determine the title when the time comes.
What he said is actually the model of modern football, and anyone in the modern world who knows a little bit about football can say the truth.
But here in the Northern Song Dynasty, although Keju is very popular, they are all having fun separately, such as Wang Xiao said, gathering to play games, and comparing them year after year, is an unprecedented proposal.
Gao Yanei was overjoyed, scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously, wishing that he could participate in it now.
"You said you were going to give out bonuses based on the final ranking, but where did the money come from?"
Money is a good thing, and doing anything for money is motivating. With money, the teams participating in the Kemari League will definitely work hard, but where the money will come from is a big question.
Don't look at Gao Yanei's domineering power in Bianliang City, but the money in his hand is counted. Daily fun is naturally enough, but if you want to do such a big business, don't expect him to be able to pay it out.
"Prospectus."
Wang Xiao's answer is very simple, it is to start to raise shares to those big families in Bianliang City who have a lot of money and can't spend it. The ticket revenue at the time of the tournament will be distributed according to the proportion of the money paid.
"It's a sure-fire business." Wang Xiao began to throw bait, "The palace marshal has many forbidden military academy fields in his hands, and they can be turned into stadiums with a little transformation." According to the different locations of different charging levels, the cheapest ten cents is enough. If you are expensive, you can get a luxurious box with wine, melons, fruits, and beautiful maids. If two or three thousand people can watch a game, it can make hundreds or thousands of dollars, to say the least. Ten games in one round, that's tens of thousands! ”
The income of a small worker in Bianliang City can be almost 100 yuan a day, and it is not an unbearable consumption to take 10 yuan to watch a Keju competition.
The wealth of the Great Song Dynasty surpassed that of all dynasties, and Bianliang City was the place where the wealth of the entire Great Song Dynasty was most concentrated. The amount of money here is unfathomable.
Gao Yanei's eyes were straight, no one could have thought of how he was so special before.
"How much do you want to share?" Gao Yanei couldn't help but be excited in his heart and asked Wang Xiao seriously.
Wang Xiao smiled casually: "I am a bun from other places, one has no connections, and the other has no money, what kind of person can I count." If the yakai can be trusted, how about I take care of this matter? ”
Gao Yanei nodded with satisfaction, "You kid is good, quite good." I'm going to talk to my dad about this first, and you'll come with me. ”
The beauty was drunk and didn't drink, and Gao Yanei hurriedly returned to Gao Yu's mansion.
It's also a coincidence, Gao Yu is at home today. After listening to Gao Yanei's eager explanation, there was a moment of silence: "You call that person." ”
Gao Yanei was not too tired, and ran to the inn where Wang Xiao was in high spirits, and dragged him back to the Taiwei Mansion.
The place where I met Gao Yu was not the famous White Tiger Hall, but an ordinary study.
Gao Yu, who is a traitor in all kinds of film and television dramas, looks dignified. has been the boss of the forbidden army for so many years, and sitting there does have a momentum of not being angry and arrogant.
Gao Yu is Zhao Ji's confidant, as early as when he was in the palace.
Zhao Ji ascended the throne and became emperor, and he naturally understood the importance of military power. Therefore, Gao Yu, the playmate who used to kick the juju, was promoted to Weimo and became Zhao Ji's spokesperson, responsible for taking charge of the forbidden army.
Gao Yu has no background, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about the tail being big. That's why he has been able to control the forbidden army safely for so many years, and he has always trusted him.
Although Gao Yu is loyal to Zhao Ji, he also has to spend money after he makes a fortune.
Relatives at home came to take refuge, former friends asked for help, subordinates wanted to eat and drink, colleagues had to give gifts during the New Year's holidays, and from time to time they had to pay tribute to the emperor.
And the forbidden army has been run like an iron bucket by many generals for a hundred years, and all kinds of income have been carved up. Even if Gao Yu is a captain, he can only take the share reserved for the captain.
Now that there is a new open source channel, he naturally attaches great importance to it.
After the ceremony, Wang Xiaozai carefully explained his plan. Compared with the previous upside-down explanation of Gao Yanei, it is naturally much more detailed.
After listening to Wang Xiao's words, Gao Yu was silent. Gao Yanei on the side was very anxious, but he didn't dare to explode in front of his old man.
After a long time, Gao Yu looked at Wang Xiao, "From now on, you are the deputy commander of the Japanese army, and you are responsible for the Keju League." Over there in Yanggu County, the old man will send a letter to the past. ”
Wang Xiao was shocked, this was a little bit of effort, and his details were found out. This Gao Yu is definitely not a brainless person in film and television dramas.
"Xie Dianshuai promoted."
Wang Xiao was the head of the capital before, but he was the head of the Xiang army. Compared with the forbidden army, the local armed forces are compared with the Zhongyang army.
The military system of the Song Dynasty was a box, an army, a battalion, and a capital. The commander of the capital is the head of the capital, and the battalion above is the battalion commander and deputy commander.
Wang Xiao was not only transferred from the local government to the Metropolitan Gate Forbidden Army, but also directly promoted to one level. You know, he didn't have long to do it.
For Gao Yu, the deputy commander of the battalion is just a petty officer with sesame mung beans. Throwing it out in exchange for loyalty is nothing. The most important thing is that you can enter Bianliang City from the place.
In the modern world, people everywhere aspire to the metropolis. The sticks want to go to Seoul, and the Fuso people want to stay in Tokyo even if they live in an Internet café. As for Huaxia, everyone knows how difficult it is to get a hukou in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. This is also true in this day and age.
Holding the sun, Tianwu, Longwei, and Shenwei are the upper four armies in the forbidden army. Among them, the two armies of Zhuri and Tianwu, which belong to the front division of the palace, are the only two iron rice bowls that do not need to go out.
If Wang Xiao is really a local native, he would definitely be grateful to smash such a big gift package and want to be a cow and a horse for the palace marshal.
It's just a pity that he is not.
Gao Yu let Wang Xiao enter the Dumen Forbidden Army with a paper order. Although the army is forbidden during the war, it is indeed the best-paid unit among the millions of Song troops in the world when it is not fighting.
Wang Xiao no longer continued to stay in the inn, but went to the house he rented.
wrote a letter and asked the Xiang army who came with him to take it back and hand it to Wu Dalang, asking him to move to Bianliang City.
When the letter was delivered, Wang Xiao sat at the table with a pen and paper and wrote something.
"Make money, Keju league sells peripherals, opens betting rakes, Ponzi schemes... Military power, the combat effectiveness of the forbidden army is negligible, when a new army is built... New weapons are needed to deal with the Golden Soldiers..."
Wang Xiao sorted out his thoughts and silently wrote down his plans. By the time a dozen sheets of paper were written, it was already dark outside.
After carefully looking at it again, Wang Xiao lit the oil lamp and burned all the papers.
"The story of the Great Song Dynasty begins now."
With the support of Gao Yu, the captain, the progress of the Keju League is very fast.
Large sums of money were quickly arrived, and Gao Yanei said that most of them came from the forbidden army generals, in addition to high-ranking officials and dignitaries and large merchants in Bianliang City.
Later, Gao Ya said mysteriously that the officials in the palace were also very interested after hearing about it, and accounted for four shares.
Gao Yanei didn't say how much money the emperor invested, and Wang Xiao didn't ask. Because they all know that the emperor doesn't have to pay for these four shares.
It seems that he has suffered a big loss, but there is an emperor who dares to make trouble without opening his eyes to the business of major shareholders.
The venue is even simpler, and there are many military barracks and schools in Bianliang City. After selecting the site according to the principle of dispersion as much as possible, the reconstruction was also handled by the forbidden army. Not only is the quality guaranteed, the construction speed is fast, and the most important thing is that it does not cost money.
After more than 100 years of development, the Metropolitan Gate Control Army has become a monster.
Fighting wars is not their main business, they are cooks and farmers, they play and sing in three tiles and two houses, they carry food boxes to deliver takeaways, they fish in the Bianhe River, they transport goods in the convoy and even all walks of life are operated by the forbidden army.
As for being a subordinate of the nursing hospital in the gate, it is regarded as a matter of course.
Such a so-called army, in the face of the barbarian army that came out of the white mountains and black waters, can win the battle.
"Many families in Bianliang City heard about this and rushed to join in." Gao Yanei, who rarely does a serious thing, is very interested, and this feeling of being chased and valued is exactly what he wants, "I think twenty is too little, so it's better to come to a hundred." ”
Wang Xiao looked at him with disdain, thinking about money and going crazy.
"Leagues can be classified." Wang Xiao stretched out his hand and knocked on the table, "There are twenty top leagues, twenty secondary leagues, and twenty third-class leagues." Establish a promotion and promotion system, and the teams with the worst results in each season are relegated and the best teams are promoted. The higher the league level, the higher the rewards. ”
Gao Yanai nodded repeatedly, and then asked, "But how do you determine who is the top and who is the secondary?" The big guys are all here for the top. ”
"It's simple." Wang Xiao smiled kindly: "At this time, the twenty teams with the most money will enter the top." ”
Gao Yanei clapped his hands vigorously, "Okay!" Before this began, a large amount of money was coming in. You are truly the God of Wealth in this office. ”
Wang Xiao smiled and said nothing, what kind of god is it that is too early to say. This matter will depend on the future.
