Walking down the street, it seems that the excitement of last night has not completely stopped.

Some vendors got up early to prop up their stalls, giving the impression that they were still in the market period.

After greeting a few townsfolk passing by, Eero walked slowly to the arena.

Entering the venue, it is completely impossible to imagine that this extremely empty venue was filled with people yesterday.

It's just that the viewing platforms of the surrounding buildings haven't been fully shaped yet, but I believe it won't take a few days.

Several townsfolk were working on some adjustments, and in the distance, Arrow saw Holy Bread, Parfay, and Brad talking with Round Cheese.

"Congratulations, yesterday's game was so successful."

Arrow congratulated as he walked over. When he walked to the side of the crowd, he spoke—

"What are you talking about?"

The Holy Cake smiled and said, "President." I guess, you came here because of the ticket printing thing? ”、

Arrow was slightly stunned, and had a bad feeling in his heart: "What's wrong?" Any questions? ”

Round Cheese said, "President Arrow, this is the case. Because the tickets sold so well this time, the printing of the paper was a little inefficient. I told the people in charge of printing that they are working it, but they can't keep up. Or...... Can we just let people in without selling tickets and just collecting money? ”

If he could, Iero would like to do the same.

If you don't need to print bills, then you can decide how many tickets you want to buy at that time. Then after two months, you can directly say how much money you plan to give to the town, without relying on bills.

But on the other hand, if you don't need a ticket, then the ticket office has to be very guarded. After all, when a person can manage that much cash flow without any credentials, and there is no supervision process, God knows how long the scales in this person's mind can be balanced.

Arrow didn't want to catch a few embezzlers in Pelican Town. First, this is really exhausting, and secondly, it will more or less create a slight gap with the townspeople of Pelican Town. It takes a lot of effort to bridge these gaps.

"Tickets still have to be printed, and this can't be saved."

Arrow covered his cheek and thought for a moment, and said-

"So, can you outsource some of the work to the next town?"

Round Cheese tilted his head: "Can you still do this?" Outsourcing? ”

Arrow nodded: "Yes, the printing of tickets for ordinary seats will be distributed to outsiders, and we in Pelican Town will be responsible for printing those seats for higher seats." This should reduce the number of laborers a lot. ”

The mayor now held his head and shook his head: "That's it! Yes, yes, yes, and this method! ”

The round cheese nodded as if it had obtained some treasure. But just as he turned his head and ran away, within two steps, the mayor ran back again.

"President Arrow, although your method is good, but after thinking about it, I still don't think it's appropriate."

The mayor clasped his hands to his chest, tilted his head and said, "You must know that this guild war has consumed a lot of energy in Pelican Town, and everyone is enthusiastic, hoping to make a lot of money through this opportunity." ”

"We don't think it's enough for us to take the money ourselves, and you're going to let us give the money to someone else? This kind of money is flowing out, and I really can't talk to the townspeople who print the bills. ”

How else to say that the place is small, and after staying for a long time, the horizon has begun to become smaller?

Arrow had known for a long time that the mayor was a money-grubber. But being greedy for money and refusing to give a little bit is really too much.

However, Arrow can also understand that this is the first time that Pelican Town has hosted such a large-scale event, and every place has to use money. The mayor doesn't want to spend the town's money in places that he hasn't considered before, which can be regarded as a normal state of mind.

"In that case......"

Airo frowned, sighed, and said—

"Then let's sell it as a multi-person ticket."

The mayor's eyes widened again: "Multi-person joint ticket? What is it? ”

Eero: "It's very simple, our arena can only accommodate about 3,000 people at most. In this case, we will sell 1,000 tickets for the premium seats, and then we will sell the tickets for the front seats. There should be a difference in the price of these two types of tickets, with the highest price for the higher seats and the middle for the top seats. ”

"After that, we used all our strength to print both kinds of bills. After the sale is gone, it will no longer be sold, and it will only be available for purchase in line before the start of our tournament. ”

"When it comes time to queue up to buy, we have a three-person ticket system. That is, for every three people who get together, they are sold a ticket so that they can enter the venue. Because these last entrants can basically only stand tickets, the price can be set at the lowest level. ”

"There are two benefits to this."

"For one, it is possible to sell a large number of high-class seats and seats close to the stands before the start of the game. After all, no one wants to stand far away and watch those great games. Those who have money won't waste their time queuing for such a small amount of money. ”

"Second, we can minimize the number of tickets we print. I wonder if this can lighten our workload a little? ”

At this point, the mayor finally showed a satisfied smile. He nodded vigorously, waved at Arrow, and immediately ran towards the backstage work in the arena.

Seeing the mayor's swift movements, Arrow began to wonder if his round figure was real. Or is there actually another mystery under the baggy clothes?

"President, you still have an idea."

Brad crossed his hands on his hips and laughed.

Arrow smiled and said, "Don't rush to give me courtesy. Let me ask you, what is the effect of the publicity that asked you to come out to promote the handicap? ”

Hearing the president's question, Brad immediately nodded seriously and said, "President, I have been promoting it very carefully!" I don't doubt what the president did, but I still have something I want to say......"

The big man swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said with some concern, "President, is it really possible?" When I opened the market today, two townspeople sneaked up to me and told me that they wanted to buy the next game. I remember you said you said you didn't want any Pelican townsfolk to participate in this handicap. But now ......"

Looking at the big man's expression of wanting to stop talking and being very worried, Arrow was really relieved.

There is still a need for such an upright person in my own guild, but it is really a little inconsiderate to let such an upright person deal with matters related to the handicap.

It's better to take him down and let Cream top.

Although he thought so, Arrow smiled and said, "Brad, are you good at arithmetic?" ”

Brad was slightly stunned, and his face seemed to see some extremely unfamiliar and boring topic.

Similarly, Parfay, who was sitting on his shoulder, now understood Arrow's words and immediately interjected, "Arithmetic? What do we need to do? ”

Arrow shook his head and said, "It's okay, I was hoping to let the two of you take control of the market." After all, it can be considered a workout. But look at you like you don't understand anything...... I'll teach you later, so let's manage this handicap first. In the afternoon, you'll leave the handicap to Cream, and you'll be in charge of patrolling our town to see where law and order is needed. After all, with so many people pouring in at once, there may be a little more public security incidents, so you have to help me watch a little more. ”

Hearing Arrow speak so earnestly, Brad immediately forgot about his question just now, nodded again and again, and smiled: "Okay, President, then I'll go back after I finish posting the publicity." I also think that it is better to leave the gambling matter to Cream to do the price comparison, he used to be a thief, so he should have been exposed to such things a lot. ”

With that, Brad greeted Arrow and the Holy Bread, turned around, and prepared to leave.

"Yo he~~! I see? You've decided internally that Pelican Town townspeople aren't allowed to participate in this market, huh? “

But just as Brad was about to leave, a voice came from the stands on the side.

Everyone turned around, and saw a slender man, about eighteen or nineteen years old, with a slightly flowing and long, sky-high hair, now sitting in the stands. He held in his hand the advertising paper that Brad had used to announce the gambling market, and he laughed as he watched it.

Seeing this man, Holy Bread's eyes narrowed slightly. But Brad and Parfay were a little wary and immediately wanted to shout and shut up the guy.

However, Arrow reached out to stop the two impulsive ghosts one step faster, smiled at the man, and said, "Mr. Robert, are you out shopping?" We have a lot of local products in Pelican Town, so you can relax and walk around before the race. “

"Shopping?"

The young boxer of the Soul Flame Guild sneered, let go of his hand, and the next moment when the advertising paper in his hand drifted away with the wind, he had already jumped from the audience into the arena and came to the front of Arrow and the others.

I had met this boxer with a lot of people before, but now it was the first time I had met him alone.

Now Iero can take a closer look at this adventurer who "has trained his body to the extreme, using his fists to rival that of a warrior in full armor".

I saw that he was only wearing a very loose short robe, and a pair of trousers were also very loose, so people couldn't see his real physical fitness at all.

However, it can be seen from the bare arms that although this person is not as tall as Brad, and does not seem to have as strong muscles as Brad, this should be an adventurer who has exercised both flexibility and strength to a certain extreme.

Of course, if it weren't for the sky-high hair that looked a little rascal, Arrow really felt that this warrior was very difficult to mess with.
