After the cost of refining the flying talisman dropped significantly, the Zong Sheng Hall deliberately kept a low profile and did not announce it to the outside world. Even though it is just a small improvement, it is of great significance today when the flying talisman is used more and more widely.
——It seems that more than ten years ago, everyone's reliance on flying talismans was far less than it is today...
Once the news is spread out, Zhao Ran is very worried that he will not be able to keep this achievement. When the time comes, the True Master Hall will directly ask for this secret method. Will you give it to him? This is not a unique skill for cultivation. You can refuse it with the master's secret transmission.
The flying talisman is just for the convenience of communication and has nothing to do with the practice itself. It will be difficult to explain without giving it away.
But if you give it away, there is no benefit, so you need a good time.
Because of this improvement, these two dual cultivators were half lured and semi-coerced by Zhao Ran to move from Yangcao Mountain to Dajun Mountain Cave Heaven and became casual cultivators attached to the Zongsheng Hall.
In order to take care of the career of layman Jingxing, Zhao Ran built a formal manor at the foot of Dajun Mountain, officially named it "Dajunshan Confucian University Hall", and gave it to layman Jingxing to take care of.
Long Qingwei is currently working hard and has two projects under development at the same time, including the continued in-depth improvement of the communication flying talisman and the object flying talisman, as well as the self-propelled plow that still has no results.
It is precisely because of the significant reduction in the cost of flying talismans that Zhao Ran has stronger confidence in deploying locations across the country.
The next thing to discuss is the split plan for the other 50% of the winnings.
After the practice lottery is sold, half of the proceeds will be put into the prize redemption pool to distribute bonuses, and the remaining half will definitely not be used for the two brothers. If you really want to do this, it is no different from robbery.
Li Dayin also knew this point of view and expressed his approval.
Zhao Ran started to count his fingers: "As for the remaining half of the prize money, we will divide it like this: five points of it will be used to recruit personnel, repair the venue, purchase competition supplies, pay salaries to referees, arrange competition systems, accountants, etc.
Does Li Fuyin agree?"
This was Li Dayin's expenses for recruiting a team to run the training ball competition. He must have thought it was too little rather than too much, so he immediately raised an objection. After some communication, the ratio of 10% was finally determined.
Zhao Ran continued to count his fingers: "Another 15% will be given to "Junshan Notes" for reporting, publicity and lottery printing expenses."
Li Dayin disagreed, so he continued to communicate, and Zhao Ran continued to compromise and settled on 10%.
"Give five points to each distribution point. Each distribution point will calculate based on sales. The more you sell, the more commission you will get. Do you agree?"
Li Dayin agreed with this.
"Take out another five points and use them as the appearance bonus for the monks. Do you agree?"
"Can."
"Three deals are taken as an overview, and two deals are accounted for, which are specially used for disaster relief. Therefore, our practice ball lottery is also called a charity lottery. Do you agree?"
Li Dayin was not happy with this. He thought the amount paid was too much. If charity lottery tickets were sold throughout the Ming Dynasty at the same time, he believed that it was possible to reach the plate of 100,000 taels in each issue. Half of it would be 50,000 taels. If the lottery was sold in seven days,
According to the progress of one phase of the competition, we strive to sell forty issues a year, with a total plate of more than four million taels. What can be allocated is two million taels, of which 30% plus two will result in one million taels. Such a large amount of money will be spent.
He really couldn't bear to give it to his father-in-law.
So Zhao Ran asked him: "With a total business of four million yuan every year, if you don't hand over one million silver, how many years are you sure you can do it? If you want to run it for a long time, you have to follow this approach and make your own business a Taoist sect."
The business of Ming Dynasty is a business that grows wider and wider."
Li Dayin sighed: "I also know this is true, but the rest, only 20% belongs to us, it always... feels uncomfortable."
Zhao Ran said: "We can make a steady profit of 400,000 yuan a year, or even more. If you still feel uncomfortable, Li Fuyin, I really don't know if I should cooperate with you. Let's split it half and half, and give each side 200,000 yuan, but
Our Zongshenguan will definitely not take the two hundred thousand for ourselves. I will ask Qingyunguan to participate in this business. Our Zongshengguan will take 100,000, and Qingyunguan will take 100,000. I suggest you not to take it all for yourself."
Li Dayin nodded and said: "I know what I know." Although he sighed, he was already satisfied in his heart. Of the 200,000 silver, he only planned to take 50,000 for himself, and give 50,000 to the disciples, and the remaining 100,000 would be required.
Scattered out to maintain relationships in all aspects, the real money maker is the 10% of operating expenses, which is more than 200,000 taels. With his method, he can do it properly with at most 100,000 taels, and the remaining
The 100,000 he bets belongs to him.
That adds up to 150,000 taels a year, and working for six or seven years is worth a million. This figure is simply much better than what he earns with a hammer and a stick!
But after thinking about it, he still couldn't give in, so he said: "Pay 40%, the Daomen and the household department each have 20%, and take out 10%, and we will jointly set up a charity fund. Since we are doing charity, of course we can do it ourselves well and have a good reputation."
Sound...well, it seems that there is such a thing as making money and gaining fame..."
After the discussion was completed, Li Dayin immediately wrote an agreement and signed it with Pei Zhongze who came forward. Next, Li Dayin discussed many details with Pei Zhongze, such as joint operation, joint supervision of the game, joint review of accounts, etc. Zhao
But I retreated behind the scenes, listening to the music and lyrics, and watching them argue with each other with red faces.
There are many links that need to be dealt with in the middle, so the start date of the competition is set in October. While making preparations intensively, "Junshan Notes" began to build momentum, announce various rules, and accept registration from monks.
The first phase of the training ball arena competition has three levels: Huang Guan, Mage, and Archmage, and the competition is divided into levels. Li Dayin originally wanted to include the level of trainer and above, but was dissuaded by Zhao Ran: "You have to eat in one bite, not too much."
Don't worry, let's try it out for a few times on these three levels first, check for omissions, and then invite senior cultivators to participate after it's perfected, otherwise something will go wrong and it won't end well."
That night's night tour of the Qinhuai River was very enjoyable. Li Dayin asked Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze if they had time to take care of Ajiang's two daughters. Pei Zhongze quickly shook his head and refused. Li Dayin did not force himself and sent the two of them to the shore.
After the swim, Zhao Ran and Pei Zhongze returned to Jiming Temple. Pei Zhongze said to Zhao Ran: "Zhiran, thank you for taking out this business. In fact, you don't need to involve me in Qingyun Hall. I appreciate it, senior brother."
Zhao Ran said: "What did Senior Brother Pei say? I will tell you the truth. Our Zongsheng Hall has few people, weak strength, and unstable foundation. Firstly, we should not be too high-profile. Secondly, it is difficult to spare the manpower to participate. Senior Brother Pei Qing
The Yun Pavilion is in front of us, and the Zong Sheng Pavilion is more practical and stable. Besides, with Senior Brother Pei keeping an eye on this business, I can do other things with peace of mind."
Pei Zhongze said: "As Zhiran said, can this business be so big?"
Zhao Ran said: "The wealth among the people is several times the national annual income, but there is no way to collect it. It's only a few hundred thousand taels, so it's not a problem."
Pei Zhongze was silent for a moment and said again: "No matter what, I will always feel guilty if I take away one hundred thousand taels from you every year."
Zhao Ran laughed: "Why are we two saying so many polite words? Zongshengguan can't eat this deal in one bite. Since we have to find someone to share it with, we might as well find Qingyunguan." Zongshengguan took it inside. The money received is actually not only the profit share, but also 10% of "Junshan Notes". The so-called publicity report has almost no cost at all. It is nothing more than writing work. Adding a column is just adding a page. It’s just paper. The main added cost is
