The current average price of this field in Tokyo is about three or four guan, but if it is used as a mortgage, it is basically half the price, which is one or two guan. This is the industry rule, and it means that it has a relationship with the Ma family.
Well, it’s impossible to break this example.
One hectare of land is one hundred acres. If calculated as two guan, one hectare of land is two hundred guan. Five hundred hectares of land is almost equivalent to a loan of 100,000 guan.
But that's almost half of the charity's fortune.
Although Zhang Fei had told them before that he wanted to mortgage the land to obtain cash, there was not so much money in the accounts. If they waited for the annual grain harvest, the day lilies would be cold.
But no one thought that Zhang Fei would be so ruthless.
It starts directly with 100,000 guan.
This amount makes everyone feel timid. Although the football prospects are indeed promising, is it worth investing so much money?
Everyone looked at Chen Maoqian and Fan Yong one after another and hinted to them that they have a good relationship, so you can tell them.
"Sanlang, this competition doesn't cost so much money, right?" Chen Maoqian asked tentatively.
Zhang Fei said: "To organize a football competition, bonuses are important. Next year I plan to use 10,000 yuan as bonuses to attract them to form teams to compete. Plus the venue rental fees, game balls, and labor costs, I will probably
After doing the math, it may cost almost 20,000 guan."
"A bonus of ten thousand yuan? This is a bit too much."
"Not to mention 10,000 guans, even 1,000 guans will have people competing for it. This year, Qiyunshe received only 600 guans in bonuses, and they have never exceeded 1,000 guans."
After all, this is just an entertainment, not wine or food, which are consumer goods that people can't live without.
Zhang Fei explained: "It's not that whoever wins will get 10,000 yuan. This is a reward for all teams. Each participating team can get some fees, and it also includes some competition expenses, and the first place
Only two thousand strings."
"Only"?
You are so domineering in how you use this "only" thing!
Everyone was a little speechless.
Zhang Fei could only continue to explain: "This is just the beginning. We have to come up with some gimmicks. If it is not profitable, we will not be able to attract more participating teams. When we complete the football league, in terms of bonuses, we will
We will make arrangements based on the profits obtained.”
Fan Yong immediately said: "But Sanlang, as the saying goes, it is difficult to change from luxury to frugality. The bonus is set so high at the beginning, and it will be difficult to reduce it in the future."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "First of all, no matter how extravagant or frugal they are, they will have no choice when the time comes. We will take the initiative. Secondly, I don't think there is much need to reduce it. The profits will be very considerable."
The timber businessman Zhou Yan asked: "Can this football match make so much money? Even if a thousand people watch a match, the profit will only be that much, and it probably won't be enough to pay back the interest."
The others nodded.
You have to pay interest on the loan!
The interest of 100,000 yuan is not a small amount.
"The tickets are just a tiny fraction of the profit."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Don't forget, I said before that we loaned 100,000 guan, but for the competition, we only used 20,000 guan. The remaining 80,000 guan was used to invest in industries surrounding football. Of course, here
It also includes a movable type production workshop, as well as carriage and horse rental."
"Industries surrounding football?"
"good!"
Zhang Fei nodded and said: "For example, the manufacturing of balls, clothing, sneakers, etc."
"How much money can you make from these?" Chen Maoqian asked puzzledly.
Zhang Fei said: "Once football becomes popular, these products will surely sell well and become one of our main sources of income. In addition, there is another important investment, and that is betting on football."
"Betting on football?"
"Don't you know that the Hong Family Gambling House is placing bets on this game?"
"Of course I know. Could it be that this is you, Saburo!"
"It's not me, it's the money invested by the charity. From this game, we can probably earn one or two thousand dollars."
One or two thousand strings?
This is equivalent to earning back the bonus!
This thing is indeed a money-attracting weapon!
If you have this back up, you can play a little bigger.
Fan Yong suddenly coughed and reminded in a low voice: "Sanlang, although your business is good, it must be kept low-key and cannot be done openly."
Zhang Fei asked: "Why?"
Chen Maoqian said anxiously: "Needless to say, we are doing it under the banner of charity. No, I mean, we are doing charity after all, but if we use the charity money for gambling, there will be consequences
Damage our reputation."
After saying that, he added, "Of course, I support it, but I think it needs to be kept low-key."
Zhang Fei said: "It's impossible to hide this, and it's impossible to keep a low profile."
"how do I say this?"
"It's very simple. Our accounts are completely open to the public. The government will send people to check randomly from time to time. How can we hide this? But..."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Don't worry, this charity gambling is charity, not gambling. Think about it, the money won from this gambling is also used for charity, and it is not used for enjoyment. They want
Not satisfied with this, they took some money and donated it!"
If you really use it for charity, you really won't be afraid of other people's gossip.
But the problem is that everyone doesn’t want to be charitable!
"All of it will be used for charity?"
Paper shop merchant Huang Can whispered.
Everyone looked at Zhang Fei one after another.
A bunch of idiots, can you say this clearly? Zhang Fei pretended not to hear it, "That's right! I'm really busy with my affairs, so I plan to ask Fan Dalang to assist me. Do you have any questions?"
Fan Yong immediately said: "Of course there is no problem."
As soon as the words came out, almost everyone looked at him.
Your son, of course you have no problem!
Zhang Fei added: "This football game is not a simple business. It requires sufficient manpower and management of many things. I leave this recruitment aspect to you."
That’s right! As agreed at the beginning, this salary is the main benefit transfer!
Everyone nodded together.
This time everyone has no problem.
A bowl of water can bring peace of mind.
Zhang Fei said: "But I also said it first. Ability determines everything. After all, this charity is about everyone's love. If the ability is insufficient and even causes us to lose money, we will be punished accordingly."
"Yes, yes, of course, of course."
In fact, if Zhang Fei didn't say that, they would still supervise each other. After all, it is everyone's money.
Zhang Fei turned to Fan Yong and said: "Exceptor Fan, I feel that not drinking while watching the football is equivalent to not watching the football. I hope that you, Baifanlou, can brew a kind of wine that is convenient for drinking while watching the football."
Watching a game and drinking? This is a good idea! Fan Yong's eyes lit up at first, but then he frowned and said: "It's impossible to watch a game with a table of food in front of it. Without appetizers, drinking this wine is boring!"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "This is something you should consider, but if it can be brewed, I believe it will be a big seller."
Fan Yong nodded and said, "Okay, okay, I'll go back and think about it carefully."
Zhang Fei nodded, and then said to Chen Maoqian, who was almost drooling: "Mr. Chen."
"exist!"
Chen Maoqian almost stood up at attention.
Zhang Fei said: "We may need many stores to sell football-related products, so we will entrust you with the store matters."
Chen Maoqian nodded and said, "No problem."
Zhang Fei added: "There will also be leather, silk, etc. We will discuss it in detail then."
The faces of the wealthy businessmen all showed happy smiles.
understood!
Got it all!
Is this meat rotten in the pot?
Then it doesn’t matter!
If you look at it this way, the football game is worth playing. If we don't make it bigger, how can we deliver the benefits?
If we just set up a movable type printing workshop, the transfer of benefits would be too obvious. As long as the court is not stupid, it will definitely be seen. And in this football game, the benefits are a very complex structure, and there is a lot of room for manipulation.
In fact, their expectations for charities are relatively low. They mainly focus on tax avoidance and whether they can make money. They don't have high hopes for this.
Zhang Fei said: "Do you have any opinions?"
All the wealthy businessmen shook their heads.
Zhang Fei said again: "Okay, let Fan Dalang go negotiate with the Ma family and see how this loan will be operated."
"If the interest rate is too high, we can't take it."
Although the meat was rotten in the pot, everyone still hoped that they could share more.
The Ma family is simply making money while lying down. If the interest rate is still too high, then it is a bit too much.
After discussing the issue of benefit transfer, these donors left with satisfaction.
"They're all gone!"
Not long after these wealthy businessmen left, Xu Zhiqian entered the hall with Gao Wenyin on her arm.
Zhang Fei pretended to be surprised and said: "Zhi Qian, you are back so early. Is it because the football game is so boring that you are bored out of your mind?"
Gao Wenyin pursed her lips and smiled lightly.
Xu Zhiqian smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if I'm bored, what matters is that everyone likes to watch it."
Zhang Fei said disdainfully: "What about your previous attitude?"
"My attitude has never changed." Xu Zhiqian straightened her arms: "My attitude is that I am worried that you will fail, but I hope you will succeed. If your football game is successful, it is too late for me to be happy."
Zhang Fei rolled his eyes and said, "You are just fooling around."
Gao Wenyin whispered in support: "Sanlang, Mrs. Xu really cares about you."
"that is."
Xu Zhiqian said: "And I was not the only one who thought you would not succeed in football. But I don't know why, but now those people are following them like a demon, even my sisters. Do you know the reason?
?”
This problem had been bothering her just now.
The audience, including her sisters, were so crazy.
Zhang Fei asked back: "Aren't you possessed by a demon?"
"No!" Xu Zhiqian shook her head gently.
Zhang Fei was stunned for a moment and asked: "Were you watching the game at that time?"
Xu Zhiqian's eyes flickered: "I'm paying attention to everyone's reaction."
"I see."
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "Next time you go watch the game seriously, preferably with a supportive team, so you can experience the magic."
"Really?" Xu Zhiqian now had no confidence to question Zhang Fei anymore, and asked again: "Have you agreed to invest money in this football match?"
Zhang Fei nodded.
"Then how much money do you plan to invest?"
"One hundred thousand strings."
"One hundred thousand strings?"
Gao Wenyin exclaimed.
Xu Zhiqian was shocked, "Is this so much?"
Zhang Fei smiled and said: "If there is no room for even 100,000 yuan, then I will not choose to engage in this football game."
Xu Zhiqian was a little worried again.
This is simply a desperate move!
However, reality tells Xu Zhiqian that football is definitely worth looking forward to.
The popularity of this football match soon spread from Jucheng to the general public. After all, it was not just dignitaries who went to watch the match today, but people from all walks of life.
Therefore, tonight, all the major restaurants, teahouses and taverns are discussing the football match.
Fan Yong saw it all, including Bailunlou, and quickly asked people to find a way to brew a wine suitable for watching football.
But they were not talking about whether Cuju or football was better, but they were talking about how unfortunate it was that Guard Ma lost, and how shameless Cao Dongdong was, and they were madly complaining about the referee and the draw system.
This made those disdainful dandies wonder, is this football game good or bad?
Do you want to say it?
Everyone is criticizing, but no one is praising it. When talking about this game, everyone is full of resentment.
Isn’t that good to say?
Almost everyone is talking about this football match, free kicks, corner kicks, offsides.
Someone will also simulate on the cloth what offside is and the formations of both sides at that time. Similarly, everyone is also arguing about this.
However, compared to the excitement in the public, there are very few officials in the DPRK and China discussing the football match. After all, Wang Anshi's reform has begun, and their minds at this moment are not on this entertainment.
Especially in the middle of this game, there was a small episode, that is, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang officially recommended Zhang Fei to the emperor.
Moreover, everyone saw very clearly at that time that both of them wanted to win Zhang Fei to their side.
These two people represent the reformists and conservatives.
The people on Wang Anshi's side were not surprised, because in the eyes of many people, Zhang Fei was Wang Anshi's man.
It is for this reason that conservative members were very surprised.
Among them were the two assistants who assisted Sima Guang in judicial reform, Liu Shu and Qi Hui.
"Bachelor Sima, I don't deny Zhang San's talent, but he obviously supports Wang Jiefu, so why should we waste our efforts?"
Liu Shu asked in confusion.
He and Qi Hui were not demoted last time. The reason was that Sima Guang believed that the procuratorate lacked helpers at that time, and the two of them were officials of the Ministry of Punishment and the Trial Court, and were originally law officials. Su Shi approached them for discussion.
Excusable.
Sima Guang said: "It is true that Zhang San has supported Wang Anshi several times, but you should not forget that he has also helped me several times."
Qi Hui immediately said: "It can be seen that this boy is very cunning and wants to please both sides. He is not worthy of trust."
Zhang Fei has indeed not made a clear stance between innovation and conservatism, but judging from some of his actions, it is obvious that he is more inclined to reform.
The main thing is the lawsuit over the ancestral law. The former ancestral law was to defend the system set by the ancestors. After that lawsuit, Zhang Fei injected the reform gene into the ancestral law. The argument was to get rid of the bad government. If the law is not changed,
It is certainly impossible to get rid of bad government.
Relatively speaking, conservatives do not trust Zhang Fei that much.
Sima Guang said: "But one thing is that he has never changed."
"Which point?"
"On the matter of defending the law." Sima Guang glanced at them, "At this point, he even did better than you."
The two of them were immediately ashamed and speechless.
There is really no argument for this. Although Zhang Fei always wins, he always wins based on the law and does not do any evil tricks. He wins in an honest and fair way.
On the contrary, they often forget about the law and try to suppress Zhang Fei with their power.
After all, there is a tradition that officials are respected and the people are humbled. After all, Zhang Fei is a commoner. Some words coming from Zhang Fei are inappropriate. This is a challenge to the authority of the official.
And, then again, Zhang Fei has no power and can only rely on the law.
It always sounds strange to emphasize fairness in an inherently unfair system.
Sima Guang said again: "In the case of the Procuratorate last time, we lost on this point. If we don't even defend the law ourselves, why should we supervise the establishment of the Ordinance Department of the Second Government.
Zhang Fei's talent and his judicial insights can make up for our shortcomings. If Zhang Fei is willing to help us complete judicial reform, it will be even more powerful."
After saying that, Sima Guang saw that the two people still had some doubts, so he added: "If Zhang San really surrenders to Wang Jiefu, then he will be able to provide Wang Anshi with a means to circumvent legal supervision, which is very detrimental to us.
"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Shu and Qi Hui nodded in unison.
In fact, they don't care that much whether Zhang Fei joins them, but they are really afraid of Zhang Fei joining Wang Anshi. Currently, their layout is local, and the only thing that can stop the New Deal is the judiciary.
Then Zhang Fei is indeed more critical.
This trades off the other, doubling the damage!
Liu Shu asked: "Is there any way for Bachelor Sima to help us complete the judicial reform?"
Sima Guang nodded confidently: "The role he can play in setting up the Ordinance Department of the Second Government is extremely limited, but if he joins us, he will be able to flex his muscles. But you must also put aside your prejudices against Zhang San, don't
I think about teaching him a lesson all day long."
Liu Shu couldn't help laughing at himself: "Teach him a lesson. If he doesn't teach us a lesson, we have to burn incense. It seems that no one who offends him will end well."
This time Gu Ji was also eliminated.
Among the imperial officials, this is already the third victim.
Even if Sima Guang didn't say anything, no one would be stupid enough to trouble Zhang Fei over a trivial matter.
Of course, if Zhang Fei participates in government affairs in the future, that will be another matter.
Sima Guang sighed: "Actually, people like Wang Wenshan, Wang Hong, Gu Ji and others did not lose to Zhang Fei, but they asked for trouble. They always think about using their power to suppress others, and they even do not hesitate to break the law or violate the rules.
In addition, they usually do not behave themselves well, so they were attacked by Zhang San. In fact, there are far more people who have conflicts with Zhang San than just the three of them. Why are the others fine? You must learn from this!"
Liu Shu and Qi Hui nodded awkwardly.
These three people are basically shit. As long as the power cannot suppress Zhang Fei, they will be very passive, because Zhang Fei is a political amateur. Apart from his humble status, he basically has no points to attack. As for his status, he
There were also Xu Zun, Wang Anshi and Sima Guang supporting us.
Under Sima Guang's suggestion, the conservatives also reached a consensus that they should try their best to win over Zhang Fei, but the main purpose was not to want Zhang Fei to join Wang Anshi's camp.
With the competition between the reformists and conservatives, Zhang Fei, who is in the public eye, has won a relatively good external environment.
As long as he doesn't express his position, neither party will regard him as a thorn in their flesh.
He can concentrate on starting his own business layout.
On the third day after the competition, the News published an article announcing the successful conclusion of the Qingzu Charity Competition.
Before the donation, I had a lot of money.
Each side scored two goals, making a total of four goals. The charity will donate 400 guan to the people's winter supplies, and the list of donations will be announced later for everyone to inspect.
This move has caused many people to change their views on charities.
This seems to be a real charity.
At the same time, another thousand coins were donated to the police station for the research and development of police equipment, and to the bodyguard horses for the construction of school grounds.
Everyone has been discussing this matter for the past two days. It was stated before that the winner will receive a thousand coins, but now that it is a draw, will the money not be donated?
It's totally possible.
But the charity still gave out a thousand dollars.
This also made many people give thumbs up.
He's a man.
But this is just an appetizer. The charity is officially named Da Song Charity Fund, and is headquartered in Bailun Building. It will use 10,000 yuan as bonuses and hold football leagues.
Ten thousand guan?
This will definitely break the bonus record!
Even if you are ranked first in Jinshi, you won’t get so many rewards!
