"Oh...... Is that ......."

Although he was treated coldly by Chu Xuan, Ah Guo was not angry, still with a shallow smile, looking at this beautiful man from the Heavenly Empire with those beautiful eyes that seemed to be able to speak, and asked with interest:

But why write these words on the wall?

If you want the people to know, just inform them, okay? ”

"Our policy is to believe in the masses, rely on the masses, mobilize the masses, come from the masses and go to the masses.

Therefore, it is important for the people to have a sense of identity, cohesion, and ownership, and it is important for everyone to develop this understanding that Agano Castle is not just a castle for the Uesugi family, but also for all the residents of Agano. ”

I don't know if it was to show that he didn't have any interest in Izumo Shrine and Ah Guo or anything in front of Isehime, the "overseer", Chu Xuan said a bunch of difficult things to Ah Guo very seriously, and he didn't explain it.

If Ah Guo could understand these words without any obstacles, then Chu Xuan would definitely suspect that she was actually a reincarnation of the main god space, and was even possessed by a certain "soul piercing" traverser, but Ah Guo naturally showed a confused look, proving that he was definitely a native "ancient person".

"Ah...... Well...... Could it be that in China, the government also communicates some things to the people in this way? ”

Although Ah Guo didn't understand what Chu Xuan's words meant, she might feel that if she asked out loud when no one else had any questions, it would seem as if she was the only one who didn't understand, so even if she didn't understand, she had to pretend to understand.

- However, Qian Xinchan and the others actually didn't understand what Chu Xuan's words meant, but they had been with Chu Xuan for two months and had learned to filter out Chu Xuan's difficult words.

If what Chu Xuan said was really something that was necessary for them to understand, he would naturally explain it in layman's terms, if Chu Xuan didn't explain, it would mean that it didn't matter if he listened to what he was saying now or not.

"In China, the government puts up notices in conspicuous places, but there should be no slogans on the walls."

Chu Xuan thought for a moment, and then replied reflectively with his glasses.

He is really too honest, in fact, Ah Guo is just changing the topic to avoid embarrassment, Chu Xuan just needs to nod perfunctorily and say "yes", he continues to hold on to this question, which will make Ah Guo feel difficult to continue the topic.

"Is this called a 'slogan'?

It's really interesting, maybe my troupe can also adopt this novel way to let everyone know about the play we are going to perform? ”

As the creator of the "Dumpling Dance", like Keiji Maeda, Akiku has a quick ability to accept new things, and immediately thought of writing this slogan on a strip of cloth or wooden board and hanging it as an advertisement.

If it weren't for the fact that she was also a "wonderful" herself, as an Izumo Taisha shrine maiden, she would not have led the shrine maidens of Izumo Shrine to tour the country and earn the funds needed to repair the shrine's main hall.

"As you said, if the vast majority of people who see the slogan can't read, then this form of propaganda doesn't make much sense.

And you don't stay in one place for too long, and the illiterate people would rather inquire directly about the play you are going to perform, rather than want to know what the words on the slogan mean.

However, the people who can really afford it are aristocrats or wealthy people, and even if they don't know what is written on the slogan, they will pretend to know, and then quietly figure it out. ”

Chu Xuan nodded very seriously, affirming Ah Guo's idea from the side.

Ah Guo thought about it for a while, and then understood the meaning of Chu Xuan's black belly that Chu Xuan didn't say, and chuckled lightly, although she was only wearing an ordinary red and white witch costume, the whole person immediately bloomed like a gorgeous peony.

"Ahhh~ Maybe this is a really good idea, if we raise more funds in the future, I must thank you."

There seems to be a deep meaning in Ah Guo's words, but it may also be just an ordinary politeness, Isehime's eyebrows furrowed, maybe she was dissatisfied with her seducing Chu Xuan from the standpoint of the Chun Yue Shrine, or maybe from the perspective of the Uesugi family, or maybe both.

"yes, I have a request if you want to express your gratitude......"

After listening to this joke, which was mostly used as a polite joke, Chu Xuan hit the snake and took Ah Guo's words.

Even as a "Wonderful", Ah Guo was also stunned by Chu Xuan's "informal etiquette", but she quickly showed a gentle smile and quietly waited for Chu Xuan's next words.

"I hope you will be able to promote what you have seen and heard in our Echigo tours in the future.

- Of course, the point is to educate the local people, daimyos, and merchants about the new things that have emerged in Echigo, and to tell them that they can be purchased with money or goods.

When you're leaving, I'll bring you some items for display, which you can show to others when they're interested, or lend them them to use, and tell them that they can buy them in large quantities at Agano Castle in Echigo. ”

"Ah...... This is really a novel sales method, are you going to do business?

If you go into business, I'm sure it won't be long before you have a place in Sakai Town. ”

Ah Guo's eyes lit up, and he immediately thought of the benefits of this method of propaganda.

Unlike ordinary businessmen who shout in front of their shops every day, her troupe can easily attract a large number of people to stop and watch, and it also tours the country, and the products she advertises are sure to quickly become popular throughout the book.

Not only will Chu Xuan invite them to publicize, but after the big businessmen from all over the world see the benefits, they will definitely ask them to promote their products by the way during the performance.

And if you're lucky, maybe a merchant's goods will be immediately favored by the local daimyo and the merchant will become the daimyo's royal merchant......

"Advertising about certain goods...... I would also like to ask you to be a 'spokesperson', and you are not allowed to advertise products of the same kind other than ours.

- Of course, if you become a 'spokesperson', we will pay you an 'endorsement fee', and we will also stipulate a number of years of endorsement, and after the endorsement period, you can freely choose whether to continue to endorse our products or endorse the products of other merchants.

For some products that don't require endorsements, you can also accept requests for similar products from other merchants, and we don't mind.

However, we are willing to pay a part of the publicity fee to obtain the right of priority promotion and key promotion.

In addition, it is not me who handles these products, but Echigoya, the general agent of Agano Castle in Echigo, and you can tell them to negotiate with Echigoya if they are interested in purchasing.

But when it comes to publicity, Agano Castle is Agano Castle, and 'Echigoya' is 'Echigoya', so we must use our Agano Castle name for the promotion that Agano Castle spends money on, and if 'Echigoya' wants you to advertise their goods, you can charge them separately. ”

As if he had seen through the abacus in Ah Guo's heart, Chu Xuan immediately added many requirements in detail.

Although Ah Guo is not inferior to Naoe Kaneji and Maeda Keiji in terms of intelligence, and has a lot of social experience than the two of them, she has received so many too novel proposals at once, and even she can't digest them immediately.

However, Ah Guo instinctively felt that this was a fund-raising ...... No, it may even be a great opportunity to revive the Izumo Shrine, so she agreed without hesitation, and also gave Chu Xuan a big "discount" in return:

"We are willing to promote the products of Agano Castle!

And, thanks to you, I learned about this great way to raise money in addition to performances, so I decided to promote it for you for free.

Words of time...... How about 10 years for ordinary goods and seven years for 'endorsement' products? ”

Ah Guo was so knowledgeable and knowledgeable, which made the black long straight Lori Naoe, who was still thinking about Chu Xuan without discussing it with them, and took matters into account to spend money on propaganda without discussing it with them, and immediately turned his anger into joy.

But Ah Guo didn't suffer a loss, after all, if she went to recommend herself to those big businessmen and wanted to help them promote the store, this was a very cheap thing for Izumo Shrine, and in the end, even if she made a lot of money, Izumo Shrine's status was gone.

And not all businessmen are willing to accept this novelty, if she takes the initiative to come to the door, she must offer a very good price, so that those merchants agree to try to let them help promote it, then it is better to sell this good to Chu Xuan - after all, he is "the one who brings hope, the one who realizes wishes".

Not to mention...... She had just met Chu Xuan, and she hadn't done anything, hadn't she already taken a big step towards her wish?

"No...... If it is advertised for free, it will be difficult to set the rules in the future.

Just as you pray for the people to ward off their calamities, even the poorest village must offer offerings to the godsβ€”even if it's just a few shriveled wild fruits.

So, if you want to say thank you, charge a penny for each product, and for the products that need to be endorsed.

In terms of time, two years for ordinary products and one year for endorsement products.

By that time, there will be more merchants who want to ask you to advertise your products. ”

Chu Xuan kindly took the initiative to ask for payment, not only did he get Ah Guo's thanks, but Qianxin Jiang also nodded again and again, expressing their appreciation for his noble and humane behavior.

If anyone is unhappy about this...... Then there is only Kenshin-chan's "righteous sister", the shrine maiden of the spring shrine, Isehime, alone. (To be continued.) )
