Chapter 133: The Light of the Townspeople

Look at me, townspeople, I'll look at you, though there was still a little hesitation on everyone's face. But it can be seen that everyone is starting to look forward to it.

As everyone whispered and whispered, the little liquor boss raised his hand. Arrow nodded and smiled at the barkeeper.

"President Arrow, according to your statement, then I will be going to the neighboring towns in the next two days to wholesale beer and other food ingredients in large quantities. It's not a big deal, the question is, are you able to make sure that there are really that many people coming? If I'm not mistaken, you've been saying 'there will be' 3,000 people coming, but you're not saying how to get more than 3,000 people coming. ”

"As you just said, let's help you go to other towns to spread the word. But how are we going to publicize it? In other words, how can you guarantee that you can encourage more than 3,000 people to come to our town and spend money? ”

If the townspeople of the town were excited about money before, now the question raised by Little Spirits is a slap in the face and calms everyone down.

After all, no matter what, the foundation of all this is based on the premise that someone will come.

Arrow nodded, smiling. He didn't mind a question being asked, and he wasn't averse to the kind of questions that might seem in the way. The more questions are raised and the more they are discussed, the more they will be able to think through all the issues in detail.

If there is a problem, it is always better to raise it and discuss and solve it than to keep it in the dark and then act in a daze.

"Little Spirits Boss, your question is critical. I believe that everyone is also thinking about how to deal with this propaganda problem. Well, in fact, if you think about it carefully, the propaganda problem can be regarded as the first battle of our guild war activities, and only when the propaganda is good, people will come to our town. ”

Arrow walked over to the plan that Coco and Sacred Cake were holding, stretched out his finger and tapped the document lightly, and said, "Little Spirits Boss, if you were a resident of another town, what would you think of coming over to this entertainment feast after hearing the news?" ”

Everyone's eyes were focused on the little liquor owner, who also lowered his head and thought about it, and said, "I don't know." You should be thinking of ways to make me want to come, not how I want to make me come. ”

Arrow smiled and said, "That's right, that's it. Therefore, when we are publicizing, we must not have the attitude of 'you are willing to come'. It's about having the attitude of 'if you don't come, it's definitely your loss.'" ”

One of the townspeople sitting in the front row was a little confused, raised his hand and said, "President Arrow, I don't understand a little. Can you elaborate on that? ”

"Of course. Ladies and gentlemen, we are human beings, and since we are human beings, our actions must be in line with our self-perceived economic interests. In other words, it is our common human instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and we do not want to lose our monetary interests unless there are special circumstances. In order to avoid losses, sometimes we humans even do not hesitate to pay higher economic costs, just to be able to recover the little possible losses before. ”

"Little Spirits Boss, I'm telling you now that we have a great entertainment in Pelican Town that only takes place in winter. Having a bloody battle between the two guilds can greatly enrich this boring winter that could only be dormant. At this time, how much do you think I should sell you for the first game? ”

The little liquor boss lowered his head and thought about it, shook his head and said, "I think you should be free." It's free to entice people to come and see it. ”

"Unfortunately, this answer may not be optimal."

Arrow shook his head slightly, the smile that made Little Spirit's face look a little puzzled.

"Free is really appealing to some people. But as I said earlier, human beings will only be more capable of acting if they may cause damage to themselves. If I give you the ticket for free, then you will naturally have the idea that you can come and not come with the resources you get for free. It is entirely possible that it will not even come then. ”

"So, I'll sell you this first ticket for 1 copper coin. A copper coin is basically a bachelor who saves money for about three days to eat. In the city, a copper coin can only be eaten for a day, or even one meal. It's definitely not expensive, but it's not too little either, and it feels almost like it's free. Since people have spent a copper coin to buy tickets, they are naturally willing to spend more money to come to our Pelican Town to eat and stay and watch other games in Pelican Town in order not to waste their ticket money. ”

"With a copper coin, we can also do a certain degree of screening of our guests. Dig out the crowd of people who are willing to spend money and have some fun this winter. These people are more likely to spend money for entertainment. These are the first business targets of our town. ”

"However, it is also impossible to sell tickets casually when we are advertising. I thought about it a little, five hundred. On the day of the Holy Night Feast, we only sold five hundred tickets. ”

"If somebody wants to buy more, sorry, we only have five hundred tickets. No matter how much money you want to spend, there's nothing extra to spend. In this way, we can create a feeling of tightness in our tickets, and when we go on sale again, we can attract more people to buy our tickets in the first place. ”

"Now, Little Spirits Boss, do you know what we should do with our propaganda in other towns?"

Arrow's explanation is kept as simple as possible to make the theory as easy as possible for everyone to understand.

After that, he left a moment for the group to discuss and answer some questions from the townspeople. After about ten minutes of discussion and answers, the townspeople finally understood the propaganda issue and stopped asking questions.

Mayor Round Cheese got up from his seat and said to the townspeople, "Everyone, do you understand now?" So is anyone in charge of publicity willing to take the initiative to ask for help? This is the need to travel to other towns, as far as Lagoon City, which takes two to three days each way. So if someone is willing to take the initiative, it's best. ”

Everyone, look at me, I look at you, although the truth is understood, but this kind of active propaganda is obviously not something that people in this remote town are good at.

After a while, Round Cheese couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when he saw that none of the people raised their hands.

"I'll do it."

At this moment, the little liquor boss spoke again-

"If I were to do this, I would have to import a lot of beer and food ingredients. So I would have had to go to Lagoon City as well. I have understood President Arrow's idea that if I want to make money, I have to make it happen. ”

Not only was the round cheese relieved, but so was Arrow. After all, publicity is especially important, and if there is really no one willing to take the initiative to ask for help, it will really lower everyone's morale.

After the little spirits took the initiative to sign up, sure enough, two more townspeople raised their hands to apply to join the propaganda team. After registering the round cheese, the three owners will take their wives and children, parents, and about a dozen people to Honglu Town, Kingfisher Town, and most importantly, Lagoon City for publicity and purchase. In terms of candidates, it should be enough.

After solving the problem of propaganda, then the next step is the specific division of labor.

"Logging Daddy, can you please preside over the construction? An arena that can accommodate at least 1,000 people at the same time. ”

Arrow didn't hesitate and called him directly.

The old man, who looked very grumpy, seemed very energetic, and nodded directly: "If you want to find a way to make money in our town, then I should help you!" And since the round cheese is so supportive of you, I believe in you too! ”

Arrow smiled, although it seemed useless to look at the chubby mayor, but when it came to communicating with the townspeople a lot, the mayor was really popular.

"But then again, I don't think it's a good idea to build a tent arena outside of town. So, as hard as you have worked so hard to draw such a sketch, I'm afraid I'm going to veto your proposal. ”

A hint of excitement appeared on Arrow's face, after all, the old carpenter was able to say that, which meant that he had begun to think about it seriously.

"Oh? What do you think? ”

Timber Daddy coughed and said slowly, "President Arrow, have you ever seen the winter weather in our Pelican Town. Although there is a mountain range to the north of our town, the north wind cannot blow, and our town has not had any snowstorms for years. But if you really want to build such a large arena outside the town, which can accommodate more than 3,000 people, the sturdiness of this building may not be very qualified. ”

"It's just winter, and when we get into the depths of winter, the wind will get stronger and the snow will get heavier. Although the possibility is very small, in case of a snowstorm, the buildings outside this town can be said to be directly abandoned. ”

"Now that I'm talking about the sturdiness, I'm going to talk about the construction period. According to your words, it's December 6th, and on December 27th the two guilds will come to our town, and the first battle will begin on December 30th. Then we will have a maximum of 24 days. To get a usable water and gas path out of the 24 days, and to make sure that the arena outside the town was as cold as possible, I really have to say, the operability was really poor. ”

The basins of cold water poured down, and the townspeople began to have worried looks on their faces.

However, Arrow was very calm, because the expression of the old architect did not show that he had given up, and seeing this, Arrow knew that he must have a solution.
