Chapter 385: Treasure Hunting
This year, not only are these businesses thriving, but the newly developed projects have also achieved remarkable results. Needless to say, the cooperation between the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info and the princesses, there is still a little bit of a fight, and it is basically still at the level of earning more private money for them.
But the horse farm with the nobles is different, the profits brought by the early horse racing are already so considerable, and when the spring comes, the weather is better, and the horse racing will definitely become more prosperous.
And the horse farm is also a platform, a communication channel for everyone to establish more common interests. Those betting shops that have become mahjong parlors are a new attempt, and there will definitely be more and more in-depth cooperation in the future.
These two things can also be regarded as a way for Shi Lei to grab political resources, is it mutually beneficial and win-win, so in fact, the significance of these two pieces is greater than the others, and if you want to make a big move in the future, these two pieces will become your biggest help. Therefore, Shi Lei also listened to the development of these two pieces very carefully.
And although we must strive for profits in this regard, we don't need to compare them, let alone neglect the relationship with other nobles.
Shi Lei is afraid that these shopkeepers will think too much about their own families, and if they pick the partners again, it will be more than worth the loss.
After listening to the reports of the big shopkeepers, Shi Lei's smiling face became extraordinarily bright, and his mood must be beautiful.
Cheng Chuyue and their housekeepers laughed like little foxes who had successfully stolen chickens, and this time they all ate extra sweet.
After the meal, according to the practice of previous years, Shi Lei took out the gold and silver commemorative coins minted separately for these big shopkeepers, and awarded them to those outstanding shopkeepers.
To say that the value of this commemorative coin, in fact, is about the same, one is a full tael of thousand feet of gold cast, the other is made of ten taels of silver, and even the pattern is exactly the same.
As a reward for the steward who brings wealth to his own family, it is naturally the content of the beautiful meaning related to wealth, the front is the festive appearance of the eight gods of wealth, and the back is the four seal characters of the eight directions to wealth.
The big shopkeeper who got this kind of commemorative coin was really happy, and he looked at the other shopkeepers a little proudly.
The shopkeepers who didn't get it not only didn't think they were pestles, but they looked at these shopkeepers with envy. And those who got the silver coins, when they looked at the gold coins, their eyes were very hot.
Of course, they are not short of this money, as the elders of the Shi family, the shops under their hands are all part of them, even if the amount is very small, the profits in hand can definitely make the eyes of ordinary rich people red with envy.
What they care more about is obviously the meaning behind the commemorative coin, the glory and recognition.
When these shopkeepers usually bet, they like to provoke each other and use this commemorative coin as a bargaining chip to bet, but even in the face of great temptation, how much it looks like a winning gamble, I haven't seen this group of shopkeepers, really pressed this kind of commemorative coin specially minted for them, which also shows how much they cherish this commemorative coin.
In addition to the commemorative coins specially prepared for the shopkeepers, Shi Lei's side also mints a lot of ordinary commemorative coins every year, which are issued to those outstanding bankers, which can be regarded as an incentive and glory.
The patterns vary from year to year, and the elements of the zodiac are referenced, and the craftsmen on the Zhuangzi are hand-made and meticulously crafted, and these commemorative coins themselves can be regarded as rare works of art.
It is precisely because of the beauty of these commemorative coins that they are now famous. Moreover, Shi Lei will also cast some gold and silver materials every year, and even have styles inlaid with various gemstones, as a gift for the New Year, and send them to the familiar nobles, and this reputation will spread.
It is said that there are also nobles, who like to collect these commemorative coins, Shi Lei's commemorative coins, because of the temperament of a master's artwork, it has become a highly sought after boutique, and the price has long exceeded the gold and silver value of the commemorative coin itself, and it will not be worse than the price of many gold and silver jewelry.
There are also many nobles who began to imitate this practice, after all, this commemorative coin is very good to make a New Year's money for their children and nephews, or as a gift for visiting relatives and friends, which is much more high-grade than simply sending some silver money.
Since everyone is so enthusiastic about their own commemorative coins, there are many nobles who have cooperated and have a relatively close relationship, and they have also expressed their love, Shi Lei simply took out this thing, and by the way, contributed a new idea, and expanded a new business for those stores under the racecourse.
Shi Lei gave this new business a very simple and straightforward name "Treasure Hunting". Of course, this kind of thing should be put in the betting shops, because it also carries a lot of luck with it.
After a brief discussion with other shareholders, when they heard that there was such a good idea, how could they disagree, and they wished that Shi Lei would have a few more new ideas.
Just mahjong is an item, which has already made them wake up laughing in their dreams, and a few more of these good things come out, and they are afraid that they will laugh to death.
"Treasure grabbing", as the name suggests, is that people who want to participate, each person only pays a penny, buys a specified product, and then the store will randomly select one of them, who can take such a thing, and other people's money, sorry, is not refunded.
This is similar to the lottery, but the lottery method and prizes are different.
From the store's point of view, this thing will definitely sell for more than usual, which is definitely profitable.
From the customer's point of view, they just paid a penny to get lucky, and when the luck came, they could use a penny to buy valuables that might have been worth several dollars, which was absolutely worth the money and made a fortune.
It doesn't matter if you don't buy it, just spend a penny to test your luck.
The world of the Tang Dynasty is now very prosperous, not the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, when a penny can't be broken to flowers.
A penny is not a large amount for many people, especially people in developed areas like Chang'an, and it can't be said that it can be discarded, and it won't be distressed if you lose it anyway, I believe there will be a lot of people who are willing to try their luck.
At least those gamblers will not let go of this opportunity to make a big deal with a small one. Therefore, Shi Lei is absolutely confident in the sales of this piece.
In order to catch up with the end of the year, he can still ask for a jackpot and get off to a good start, Shi Lei generously took out a gold, five silver and six commemorative coins as the first wave of lottery heads.
In order to show their sincerity, the other nobles also took out their own special items, making this first "Treasure Hunting" activity more colorful.
The advertisement has been vigorously typed a long time ago, and it is just approaching the New Year, and it can also give those people in the beggar gang a job, and let them have a good New Year.
As for the effect, we will see it right away. (To be continued.) )
