The confused reactions of the three people made Jia Liu feel a little disappointed that he lacked a close friend.
This is the regret of the times.
How much advanced experience has no mass base in this era.
Jia Liu couldn't directly ask them for money, so he thought about it and came up with an idea. He stood up and asked the three of them to wait for a while. When he came in again after a while, he had three more forms in his hand.
It is a very professional form, with horizontal and vertical lines drawn by Jia Liu using a ruler.
The paper is also cut to A4 size.
The top few characters are particularly conspicuous, and they are called "Application Form for Candidates for the Prince of Duoluo, Heshuo".
"The three of you have a look at this form. If there are no questions, fill it out on the spot."
After distributing the three forms, Jia Liu ordered people to bring pens and ink for them to write on.
"This is?"
The three beltmasters were all confused when they looked at the form in front of them, because they didn't quite understand what was required to be filled in on the form.
Everyone knows the name column, they must all be Aisin Gioro.
After filling in the seven generations of inheritance from our ancestors, we also understand who I am and who my Lao Tzu is.
But what do the two columns of occupation and political outlook mean?
"If you have a job as a flag official or a foreign official, fill it in truthfully. If you don't have one, write unemployed, or freelance."
"In terms of political outlook, those who have titles should fill in their titles, and those who don't have titles should fill in the masses."
Jia Liu patiently explained to the three disciples to ensure that all their details could be known through the application form.
"Oh, by the way, you don't need to write the contact number. Just write the home address."
"In the column of family property base, fill in the bank in your name. Fill in how much money your family has, how many fields, what businesses they operate, how much annual income they have, and finally fill in a rough value. For example, if the family property is one million taels, write one million.
two."
At this point, Jia Liu warned: "You must fill in the column of family property base truthfully, and never lie or conceal it. If there is any false report, once discovered, your nomination will be canceled immediately, and the nomination fee will not be charged."
return."
While talking, Jia Liu picked up the form sent to Andershan again, pointed to the large blank area at the bottom of the middle, and told the three of them to write the reasons for the application here.
What are the advantages that the three of them think can compete for the hat king, mainly the achievements of their ancestors.
If an individual has made contributions to the Qing Dynasty, has achieved any military merits, or received any commendations from the court, he can also fill in this form.
"Finally, you sign your name and seal it if there is one. You don't need to write the nominator column. I will fill it out then and then help you submit it to the Ministry of Ceremonies for review by the Military Aircraft Department."
After giving a general introduction to the application form, Jia Liu asked the three of them to start filling it out.
Fortunately, all three of them knew how to write, so he didn't have to do it for him.
The first one to finish writing is Eternal, and the reason why he wants to participate in the competition is to restore the inheritance of Prince Su.
The previous Prince Su, Yunyang, had his whole family killed because he conspired to rebel.
Neither the Military Aircraft Department nor the Ministry of Rites wanted to restore the inheritance of Prince Xian, but Yongheng, as the fifth grandson of Hauge, could not sit back and watch the hat king title passed down from his ancestors be taken away, so he came out to run with the support of some of his descendants.
If you want to stand for election, the first step is to get nominated, so you gritted your teeth and spent 20,000 taels of money with Andershan and the others.
This amount is also the current market price for clan competition nominations. It is not low, but it is definitely not high.
Shouling wanted to compete with his younger brother Xiu Ling because he heard that the Military Aircraft Department's unofficial heir to Prince Yu was Xiu Ling. The reason was that Xiu Ling's mother was his Ama Dezhao's sidekick.
But Shouling's mother was a concubine named Zhang, a Han woman.
One mother is a Banner person and the other a Han Chinese. Naturally, the two brothers are destined to have a higher background and a lower background.
In addition, his younger brother Xiu Ling tried his best to follow the path of Fu Zhongtang, the foreman of the military machine, so he was naturally nominated by Fu Zhongtang.
An insider from Prince Xin's Mansion told Shouling that his brother Xiu Ling had given thirty thousand taels to Prince Xin's Mansion alone.
I don’t know how much money was spent at Fu Zhong Tang.
After the death of his great-great-grandfather, Prince Duduo of Henan, he was demoted to a prince and became a county prince because of his elder brother Dorgon, but his family property and banner fields were never reduced. Great-grandfather Duni, great-grandfather Eza, and grandfather Dong E were all high-ranking officials. Over the past hundred years, they have accumulated The family wealth is considerable, and although the large sect Xinwang's lineage gets most of it, the smaller sects also get a lot, which gives Shouling the confidence to compete with his younger brother.
The three belt masters quickly filled out their forms.
Jia Liu looked through them one by one and found that among the three, Yongheng had filled in the smallest amount of property. The total amount of flag land and property allocated by his ancestors was only about 200,000 taels.
His life span is longer, and his family property is equivalent to about 250,000 taels.
The one with the most wealth is Andershan, who reported a total family property of 300,000 taels.
As a marginal clan, it has a property of 300,000 yuan. Thanks to Andershan's quick thinking, it has shops in Beijing, Tianjin, Datong, Zunhua and other places, as well as several distribution points in Outer Mongolia.
Similar to He Shen, he is very smart in business.
Putting down the application form for three people, Jia Liu didn't mince words and said directly: "We are plain people and don't tell secrets. If I sign and hand over this application form, it will be twenty thousand taels per piece. I don't know what the three of you think." ?”
After hearing this, Shouling stood up hurriedly and said: "If my consort can nominate the three of us, we three will be very grateful!"
Andershan and Yongheng both stood up and expressed their deep gratitude to their consort for their help.
Jia Liu interrupted the three people's thanks and said: "Don't rush to thank me. I can help you with the nomination, but I can't guarantee whether you can win in the first round of the election. You just can't get the 20,000 taels." It was good, but it was wasted."
It is Jia Liu's habit to tell ugly things first.
In order to avoid ruining his long-standing reputation for integrity over the 20,000 taels.
"this"
When the three of them heard this, they were really stunned, but they quickly said that as long as their father-in-law can help them nominate, no matter whether they can win or not, the three of them are only grateful to their father-in-law and have no other thoughts.
"I'm glad you think so."
Jia Liu smiled and nodded, "When I went out just now, I studied with Kuibutang from the Ministry of Rites, Abutang from the Ministry of Personnel, and several ministers. To be honest, the three of you are qualified to compete for the hat king, so I will give you three There is absolutely no problem in nominating people. But the qualifications of candidates nominated by other princes and ministers will not be worse than yours, so it will be very difficult for you to win in the first round of voting."
be honest.
"Please also ask for your help, my brother-in-law. Money is not a problem."
Andershan is a businessman, and at this time he has completely kept up with the rhythm of his father-in-law.
Hearing this, Yongheng and Shouling also understood and expressed that as long as their father-in-law can help them compete in the future, he will definitely be interested.
Jia Liu motioned the three of them to sit down and said: "It's empty talk, whether it's research or meaning, there has to be a number. Since the three of you have found me, let me tell you the truth. I can help you buy some." Tickets, but the price is a bit high, I wonder if you three can accept it."
Andershan said hurriedly: "Please tell me, my consort!"
"Ten thousand taels per ticket!"
Jia Liu made a bid.
Ten thousand taels per ticket?
The three belt masters were all shocked by the number.
"The price is a bit high, but you three must know that the benefits of becoming a hat king far outweigh the cost."
Jia Liu made a scientific analysis for the three of them. According to the latest revised method of the Military Aircraft Department, 25 candidates will be selected in the first round of nomination voting, and there are only about a hundred people with the right to vote for the princes and ministers in Beijing, so there are 25 candidates.
In fact, each person can win if they have fifteen votes.
In this way, in the first round of voting, the three belt masters only need to spend another 150,000 taels to become the final candidates.
This price is high for ordinary people, but it is not unacceptable to three wealthy people with a family fortune of 20,000 to 300,000 yuan.
The three belt masters also considered their personal endurance and remained silent.
Silence is not a matter of not accepting it, but of considering whether to go with this price, and how much will one vote cost in the final vote?
The nomination fee is 20,000 taels, and the ticket purchase fee is 150,000 taels, which is 170,000 taels.
In the second round of final voting, are you afraid that the minimum ticket price will be 30,000 taels?
A conservative estimate is that if you want to successfully become the hat king, you will have to spend hundreds of thousands of taels?
If not, it will cost over a million taels.
I can't raise this money even by selling the three of them.
"You don't have to rush to give me an answer. You can go back and discuss it with the clans you are close to. If the three of you really want to go to the end, I can give you a reference, that is, there are three gangs for each hero, and three gangs for each fence.
Zhuang, there is great strength when everyone unites."
Jia Liu's opinion is obviously that the three leaders should go back to raise campaign funds. The campaign funds can come from clan members who are close to the three of them, or from businessmen who have interests in dealing with the three of them, or even officials.
.
Crowdfunding campaign, choosing the hat queen later, this little money is nothing.
If it really doesn't work out, you can use things as compensation, such as the flag fields and property assigned by your ancestors. These things will be accepted by the emperor.
Especially the flag fields, my consort is hoping that this National Congress can take over 1.8 million acres of it, so that he, Jia Qingtian, can better implement the New Deal and poach the Eight Banners.
To put it another way, even women can do it.
Mr. Jia has many bachelors under his command, so it would be a happy thing for everyone to get some Eight Banners noble girls to divide them among them.
If you don’t want the child, Mr. Jia won’t accept the adopted son.
Considering that a large amount of funds will be needed in the follow-up, the three tape masters had to go back to discuss, because with their current financial resources, they could only finish the first round.
After the three people left with deep thoughts, Queenie popped up and chuckled: "Aren't you afraid that the three of you will back down?"
"Wealth is gained through risk, and there is no reward for the investment. The temptation of the King of Hats is enough to drive these clans crazy. After all, this is their only chance. After passing this village, there will be no such shop."
Jia Liu handed the three application forms to Queenie with a smile, "Even if the three of them withdraw, I will still receive 60,000 taels. This business is not a loss. You ask people to print a large number of these forms, and you and Lao A will do it later."
You can all make a fortune.”
"this?"
Queenie's heart moved, and she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
"You collect your nomination fee yourself, I won't take it."
Jia Liu patted Queeni on the shoulder, "This time we will try to bankrupt a group of clans, and then we will take over their land, demolish their houses, and take their food. In short, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, the eighteen generations of my ancestors can be
They fucked.”
"Siba!"
Queenie was in awe, looking at the leader with great admiration.
