Chapter 684: A Year of Harvest
His cousin had a hard time believing that he wrote it, but there was one thing to say, except that he wrote it, and it seemed that there was no other possibility.
After all......
Lee Chong has always been a man who can create miracles.
It's like before the advent of football, who knew that there was still football in the world.
After years of development, football has occupied almost half of Datang's sports.
Why?
Because of this thing, just find an open space, and then stick two branches on the ground as a goal, and you can play.
Especially after the summer harvest every year, there are not too many people playing football in this field.
And......
It's not just for adults, it's for children to say more.
Cough!
Of course!
In this way, there will definitely be some bad effects as well.
For example, today's children don't like to study, and when they have time, they run to play football.
If you don't study well, you can do nothing just by playing football, even now, there is a football league in the football city.
However, since it is not too high, it can only continue to be regarded as a ninth-rate profession.
"Cousin, you should think about it, in this football city, and in Luoyang City, there is something new that is not only available since I had it."
Then his cousin really thought about it seriously and said, "It seems that it is really like that." β
"So...... No need to question, that's what I wrote. β
"What about the songs?"
"I wrote it too."
His cousin still looked at him in disbelief.
Li Chong said: "You don't have to look like you've been hit, this is the difference between geniuses and ordinary people." β
"Just get used to it."
ββ¦β¦β
His cousin was speechless.
"Don't tell anyone outside, after all...... His Royal Highness is a low-key person, and I don't want too many people to know that I am so smart. β
Li Chong didn't know if his cousin would say it.
But......
It doesn't matter anymore.
After all, if you say it or not, it doesn't actually have any effect on him.
If his cousin can really not say it, it proves that his cousin can still be saved.
If his cousin has a big mouth, say everything.
Then Li Zhong thought that it would be better to stay away from such a cousin in the future.
And......
He also has an excuse.
β¦β¦
In the past one or two years, the endless new things have also affected the entire Datang in the long run.
It seems that Datang, which was already a little stagnant, has regained its vitality.
Other than that......
Some people of the Tang Dynasty also transformed into masons and began to learn new methods of building houses.
Like the cement plant, it has also been set up at this time.
As of the beginning of September this year, more than 1,000 new houses have been preliminarily built in the direction of less than six miles southeast of the soccer city.
Next......
It is to wait for another month or two, and when the smell of decoration is gone, it is to distribute what should be distributed to the people and to the people.
What should be sold, be sold.
A house like this would have to sell for at least a few hundred yuan.
Many ordinary people in Datang may only earn a few hundred yuan in their lifetime.
So......
If it is sold like this, it is certainly not for ordinary people.
Right now......
The only thing Li Chong is more worried about is that those rich people may not like a house like this.
After all......
Compared to the traditional kind of big house, such a house is obviously a bit small.
Even......
If you really want to say it, you may not even have enough places for slaves and maids to sleep in the future.
To this end......
Li Chong also discussed it with Li Xian.
If you really can't do it, let's rent it out.
Although the period of repayment has become longer, as long as the house does not collapse, they should be able to recoup their capital within 20 years.
And then the rest of the time, it's pure earning.
Actually, renting might be a little better.
Because Luoyang is so prosperous, there are many businessmen from other places or something, and they rarely have a good place to live.
And these houses are just right for these merchants from other places, and at the same time, these merchants, they can also afford to pay higher rents.
ββLuoyang International Financial Center!
Well!
Li Zhong thinks this concept is very good.
Although......
At this moment, they don't seem to have much to do with finance.
But......
From this perspective, we might as well plan the development of this area in the future.
When the time comes......
If he wants to raise money or something, it will probably become easier.
After all......
Just throw out a brick, and the people who live here are all rich people.
β¦β¦
September.
Li Chong's gramophone business has also developed vigorously.
Now with the increase in the number of songs made up by Luo Weiyun.
The increase in the number of this music also began to gradually lead to the development of the phonograph business.
From the beginning, the phonograph may have been owned by only a few people.
Now, it is estimated that the number of gramophones in Luoyang has exceeded 30,000.
This is undoubtedly good news.
Previous words......
Compared with the gramophone, the rich are more willing to listen to the song and communicate with the Qinglou woman face-to-face.
After all......
It's a face-to-face conversation, and it's not just about listening to songs.
It's the kind that has both color and aroma and even taste.
So when the gramophone is compared with this color, aroma and flavor, the disadvantage of this phonograph is also great.
Because you only have one to listen to.
Crucially, the price is not how cheap it is.
Without......
This singer may be bound to the person who sells gramophones, and can get a certain commission from it, and it is estimated that no one wants to release records.
Maybe......
Some prostitutes in Qinglou, who are already old and decrepit, will try to cooperate.
But to be honest, they are already old and decrepit, and they are no longer attractive.
As a result, although the phonograph has always been there, it is difficult to develop.
But this year it's a different story!
This year's situation is that there are a lot of great tracks in the concert.
But these tracks, those who have not been to a concert, or those who have been to a concert once, but still want to listen to them, will not have the opportunity to hear them again except for being able to hear them at the concert.
Out of the desire to hear the songs of these concerts more often, many people bought new phonographs and bought the records released by Lee Chong.
This is the most important reason why the gramophone business has been able to flourish all of a sudden.
Of course!
With the booming phonograph business, naturally there are some problems.
For example, a person's time and energy are limited.
If someone buys a gramophone and listens to it at home, will he not have time to go to the brothel of the Qinglou to consume?
This is naturally also a problem.
All I can say is......
There is definitely a shock.
But......
How to put it, it's not the kind of situation where either you die or I live.
Even......
Sometimes, even the singers of the brothel of the Qinglou will cover the song.
At this time, there are already a little bit of such signs.
It's just that......
If they want to cover it, most of it can only be a cappella.
After all, background music is such a thing, and it can only be said that some tunes will be relatively complicated.
And there's such a thing as music copyright.
Li Chong also wanted to strictly restrict it, but at this moment, it was better to forget it.
After all......
Letting them cover it is actually beneficial.
At least......
They can provide them with visibility.
Now it's a gramophone, corresponding to at least one disc.
And Li Chong is also a CD, only one song is engraved, and a CD can repeat a song six times.
Of course!
It also depends on the length of the song.
Some are longer, and they may only be repeated five times.
In fact......
At present, the technology of this gramophone still needs to be strengthened.
But......
As a new thing, it can only be said that such a level is actually enough.
If it were put in the era when there were CDs in later generations, there should be at least twenty or thirty songs on that CD.
If you put it in the U disk era, there will be more, a U disk, not thousands.
So......
Li Chong thinks that this poor technical condition actually has the advantage of poor technical conditions.
For example, now, they can sell a plate with a tune, then they can make up 20 tunes, that is, they can sell 20 plates, there are now 30,000 gramophones in Luoyang City, and that plate, if it only sells for 500 Wen, if it can be sold for 30,000 plates, then wouldn't they be able to earn 300,000 pieces with only 20 tunes?
Of course!
Some tunes may not sound good at all, so not necessarily someone will buy them.
So it's definitely not possible to sell 30,000 plates for every song.
But you have to admit it!
This is another extremely lucrative money-making project.
300,000!
It's like a blink of an eye, and you're earning it back! And there is one thing to say...... It feels easier to make money than it is to write.
After all......
How long does it take to create a piece of music?
If it's fast, maybe in ten days and a half months, it will be created.
If it's slow, it's estimated that it will last for a month or two.
Early September.
For the first time, profits in this area were evenly divided.
Some people harvest more than 1,000 in a month.
All I can say is......
It's horrible!
Of course!
Li Zhong should be said to have gotten the most.
Because almost all the songs that sell well and can sell for 30,000 plates are from him.
Even if it's the income of this plate, he can't take it alone, because you still have to pay the arranger, the person who plays the background music, and the person who makes the recording.
But even so!
His income is also by no means less than 10,000 yuan.
Some speculate that it could be between 10,000 and 30,000.
The musicians who originally followed Luo Weiyun also became little rich women in an instant.
Just these two or three years of hard work are enough for them to support themselves for the rest of their lives.
This is a bit like the anchor of some live broadcast platforms in later generations.
Their annual income alone is calculated in millions, or even hundreds of millions.
When everyone received the money, Li Chong also specially asked how they planned to spend it.
All I can say is......
I'm worried that they'll float.
So I had to tell them in advance that he had heard a story.
A story that looks down on the poor.
After listening to Li Chong's story, everyone was immediately silent.
Seeing their reactions, Li Chong was relieved.
The story may not last a lifetime, but at least ...... In a short period of time, there should still be no moths.
In fact, Li Zhong thought about it seriously......
It is really not easy to send money to the ordinary people of Datang.
After all......
You can talk about these people, they got a lot of money, so where are they most likely to spend it?
Good clothes, good jewelry, good shoes and socks, or good food.
However, none of these things are the ones that the people can really make a lot of profit from.
In general, ordinary people are the objects of exploitation.
For example, for jewelry made by folk craftsmen, the labor cost may only be consistent, but if it is sold, it may be sold for ten times.
Then there are nine runs in the middle, and who earned it?
Not the profiteers yet.
Since ancient times......
The words of this common person can only be a sip of soup at most.
Of course!
It's better than eating bran and drinking thin.
Li Chong wanted to give them guidance and tell them that it would be more meaningful to spend their money on those places.
But in the end......
After thinking about it, he didn't expect that there was a place that was particularly beneficial to the people.
I had to give up!
Whatever they want.
After all......
This is the money they earn, and it is up to them to decide how to spend it.
This year is undoubtedly a bumper year for Li Chong, the crown prince and his subordinates.
Who would have thought......
They are even more happy than being officials.
The key is......
Before, they had to look at the faces of the guests.
The current word......
They don't even need to look at anyone's face.
It's like saying, this Si Si, she used to be in the brothel of the Qinglou, and now she is here in Li Chong, those are completely different things.
In terms of income, it can basically be the same as when I was in a brothel in a green house.
But this dignity is not the same.
Every time Li Chong was there, she would also stare at Li Chong.
It's a pity......
Li Chong didn't seem to mean much to her.
November.
Qing'er gave birth.
Fortunately, he was born a son.
Otherwise......
If you give birth to a daughter like Li Zixin, then it is estimated that you don't know how depressed you are.
Of course!
This is also the result of Li Chong's perspective from the perspective that the other party may think so.
This son's life, Li Chong feels that her life can be regarded as complete.
As for Xiaoxiao, as well as Li Zixin's side......
First, Li Zhong hopes that he can grow again.
Second, Li Chong also hopes to give them a little more time to recover.
So......
didn't go in the direction of holding them for three years.
Feel......
Next year?
But about these, let's just let it go.
Considering that if he gets pregnant again, he will have nothing to do, so he may take certain measures, but if he is really unlucky, he is still pregnant, cough, there is no way.
I can only blame myself for being unlucky.
Next......
Whoever has to re-learn from the experience and put the sleeve back on, so maybe it will be better.
