Chapter 325 - Gambling Agreement

"Let people in nearby cities know that we're going to have a big event here, and we're going to have a lot of food, shows, all kinds of fun stuff coming together with us. In this way, people from nearby towns will come to our town to participate in this event as if they were participating in the Guild War. ”

"Then, we just have to make this wedding beautiful, warm and grand! Let everyone who has seen the wedding think that it is really amazing, so beautiful! ”

"And young people, because I am also a young person, I think some of the mentalities of our young people are quite easy to understand. Our young people are more impulsive and enthusiastic, and like to follow their feelings. When they see that our wedding town is so enthusiastic, then they will naturally have some expectations for our town. In the same way, they will want to stay in our town. ”

"In terms of work, there is still a lot of uncultivated land near our town, which can be sold to people who come to live in it, which can play a role in supporting our agriculture. In this way, we can absorb a part of the young people to settle in our town. ”

"In this case, the population base of our town can be partially expanded. Of course, this stage may be a long-term progress, and it will not be effective in a short period of time. But in the long run, it must be an action that is beneficial to our town. ”

As Arrow's explanation ended, the crowd, who had just been silent, began to whisper and talk to each other.

Some people think it's a very good idea, but others think it's just ridiculous, and they've never heard of a town paying for someone to get married.

As the mayor of the town, Round Cheese tilted his head and thought about it, and out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Mr. Sugar-Coated Wine next to him, but unexpectedly, the old gentleman was also tilting his head to look at him, as if he was also waiting for his reply.

Seeing this, round cheese coughed deliberately and said, "Well...... There's no way to make money in a short period of time, right? ”

"No, of course there are ways to make money."

Arrow had expected this kind of scene for a long time, opened the account book in his hand, and continued-

"Since it's a big party event, there's naturally going to be ticket money. We will have a big party for three consecutive days, and since it is a big event, you can continue to use the experience you have accumulated during the guild war, providing various souvenirs, food, drinks, accommodation, etc. Moreover, the infrastructure of our town was actually designed during the Guild War, and it didn't cost a lot of money overall. ”

Hearing this, the old man who was sugar-coated may have been unable to ask any meaningful questions when he saw that round cheese had never been able to ask any meaningful questions, and finally spoke: "President Arrow, what you said is so nice, but are you really sure that this kind of thing can be done?" Guild War is a game, and ordinary people usually don't have the opportunity to watch magic and those powerful martial arts, so of course they will come to buy tickets. But this time, look at people getting married? Can this really be done? ”

Arrow smiled and nodded, and said, "Mr. Sugarcoat, do you know how the 'festival' thing came about? ”

Sugar-coated thought about it, but shook his head.

"Festivals, this thing was originally left to commemorate certain people or things, and existed as a memory. But on the other hand, festivals also represent a kind of joy, a synonym for being able to enjoy themselves. ”

"As long as it's a festival, it doesn't matter who or what it's meant to be celebrated, as long as it's enjoyable and enjoyable. I even have a name in mind, and this holiday is called 'Valentine's Day'. ”

"A couple in Pelican Town decided to get married on a specific 'Valentine's Day' day that has been around since ancient times in Pelican Town. And the whole town celebrates the couple with the most enthusiastic celebration on this day. As long as there is such an atmosphere, then there will definitely be people in the crowd who come to visit who will be moved by this atmosphere, so as to generate consumption, and then yearn for our town. ”

"As for 'Valentine's Day', how did the holiday come about? It doesn't really matter at all. Let's just say that this festival is very old, and there are even several versions of the legend, but we just know that it is a beautiful festival. ”

"And what makes the atmosphere of Valentine's Day the highest is actually the hype before the holiday, as long as people can know that this is a holiday about love and family, then whether they are married or unmarried, they will want to come and see it. After all, no one dislikes their own festivals too much, right? We need to create a lot of slogans, and then promote a lot of slogans to make everyone feel that having a wedding on Valentine's Day is the happiest thing to do. Young men and women who get married on this day will be blessed by the whole of Pelican Town. As long as these concepts are instilled into people's minds, making money is such a thing, when the time comes, I am afraid that we will count the money until we have cramps, not worried about whether we can make money~~~! ”

Margaux didn't know what others thought, but she knew what she was thinking now.

At this point, she finally understood why this short man was able to become the president of a guild, and she had traveled to many places for so many years before, and at most she could only be the mistress of a nobleman.

And why did he look so stupid in the eyes of those nobles, but this president could defeat Viscount Norris and Count Karp in a row!

Gap......

At this moment, Margaux really felt what it means to be different.

The round cheese over there was already dumbfounded.

Not only the guildmaster, but also the other townspeople, all of them were dumbfounded, and it seemed that they couldn't keep up with Arrow's train of thought.

But that's okay, Iero doesn't want these people to understand what he wants to do, as long as he can convince them to do it.

"Hmm...... President Arrow, this proposal of yours ...... It's really a novelty. ”

When everyone was silent, the old gentleman touched his beard, nodded slightly, and said with a smile-

"Also, the concept of 'Valentine's Day' is very similar to the feeling that we want to create a tourist city...... Mmmm, that's fine. However, I was still a little reassured...... What if it messes up? It's one thing to have a concept, but it's another thing to be truly successful. You say, don't you? Mr. Mayor. ”

Round Cheese had been listening, but suddenly he couldn't help but feel nervous when he heard the topic turn to him, and the whole person seemed a little uncomfortable: "Ah...... What's this...... I think...... It does need some protection, doesn't it? ”

In this regard, Eero expressed understanding. After all, the mayor of the town is a man who loves money, and it is indeed a little difficult for him to take out some of the investment money and use it for such illusory things.

At that moment, Arrow nodded slightly and said with a smile: "So let's do it, how about we have a gambling agreement?" ”

"VAM agreement?"

Round cheese didn't seem to have heard of this concept and hesitated.

Arrow smiled and said, "It's very simple, Mr. Mayor and I made a contract, I only need Pelican Town to come up with 300 gold coins as an investment in this matter. During the period from the beginning to the end of the event, if the entire profit of Pelican Town, I mean all kinds of accommodation, food, tickets, etc., as long as there are all the expenses incurred in our town by economic transactions, the total profit will need to be more than 300 gold. ”

"If the profit does not exceed 300 gold coins at the end of the event, that is, it does not fill the gap of the previous 500 gold coins, so much of the gap will be borne by our mermaid song."

Margaux on the side was simply shocked when he heard it! She looked at Arrow next to her with a slightly incredulous gaze, and after thinking about it, she still reached out and gently nudged the president: "Are you crazy?" Vacancy of 500 gold coins? In just a few days? Earn so much? ”

The round cheese in front of him thought for a moment and said, "In that case...... So what if you reach 500 gold? ”

Arrow smiled, "That's very simple, all the proceeds from more than 300 gold coins go to our Mermaid Song. At least that would ensure that we don't lose anything in Pelican Town, and I think this method is good for Pelican Town, how about it? ”

After listening to Arrow's introduction, everyone present began to talk to each other again.

The concept of VAM is probably a very new concept for people here, and it is not easy to figure it out for a while.

But after discussing with each other for a moment, they understood at least one thing -

Either way, Pelican Town's cash flow is not going to be lost.

After understanding this, the voices of opposition just now are gradually lowering and slowly dissipating invisibly.

On the other side, the old man nodded slightly, and it seemed that there was nothing to object to this proposal. After the voices of the crowd gradually subsided, he spoke, "President Arrow, you have said this to the point, then I have no opinion. I just want to invest in you Pelican Town, and if you can expand the size of this town so that I, as an investor, can make a lot of money, then whatever you want. Now I just want to hear from the mayor. Mayor Round Cheese, what do you think of this method? Is it possible? ”

Round Cheese was slightly stunned and turned his head. I saw that the old gentleman's eyes were full of curiosity, doubt, not too firm, but expecting an answer.

Looking at the expectant gaze of sugar-coated wine, the mayor felt that his mental pressure was instantly greater! His body trembled slightly, and then with a slightly pleading gaze, he looked at Arrow over there.

And Arrow is naturally full of confidence, and he doesn't look ready to lose money at all.
