Chapter 15 Event Sponsors

Like all territories, a territory ruled by demons also needs fun.

In the past, celebrations and entertainment activities were completely based on the celebration methods of the demons, and the people in the territory had to celebrate demon festivals that they had never heard of.

For example, the birthday of the Demon King, Demon God's Day, Demon Victory Day, and the lord's birthday.

Needless to say, these are festivals that make humans and other races irritated just thinking about them.

Not only that, the entertainment methods of the festival are also very inconsiderate, such as having people covered in blood and dancing in the streets, not being allowed to eat cooked food for several days, and making people crawl for a day imitating the way they were conquered.

Even Vincent thought this was too hurtful to one's self-esteem.

This month's territory celebration is coming soon, and the original plan is for the whole city to stay up in the middle of the night and sing the devil's hymn together all night long.

It is estimated that after the all-night singing is over, more people will have the idea of ​​assassinating the lord.

Let's have some regular celebrations. I'm not the vampire ex who comes up at night, so how can I lead people to howl all night long?

Since you want to hold a competition, you must first choose a venue.

After inspection, Vincent chose a knight's competition venue outside the city as the venue for the competition.

Since the defeat of the human race, the knights' competition that was often held has become unsustainable.

Knights with dignity and honor either died on the battlefield or fled, and the little lords in the territory were all cronies of the demons.

Not even a single nobleman is left in Silver Dragon Castle.

However, the old man's venue is still there. It was used as a racecourse in the past few years and brought in a lot of gold coins for the previous lord.

After some temporary renovations, the place was fully sufficient for competitions and could accommodate thousands of spectators.

Those who want to watch need to pay 19 copper coins - which sounds a little cheaper than one silver coin.

One of the reasons for charging is to supplement fiscal revenue, but Vincent wants to see how big the middle class is in Silver Dragon Castle.

In addition, as long as they collect money, his subordinates can take advantage of this opportunity to use physical and magical means to inspect the visitors.

Of course, Vincent does not charge money to everyone. Friendly people such as the pro-demonic nobles, church priests, cooperative businessmen in the city, and their families can enter for free.

Not everyone understands Vincent's thoughts, including his subordinates.

"Your Highness, the competition costs money." The Lich leader expressed his opinion, "There is a rebellion in the territory, and it costs money to quell the rebellion."

"It won't cost you anything if you kill them all." The loyal giant scythe said, "The competition is not as good as the battle."

"What about you?" Vincent glanced at Niniya who had a conflicted expression, "My toy, tell me your opinion honestly."

"Master, even if you make the people in the city happy, they won't change their minds."

Niniya didn't dare to speak too directly, but Vincent just wanted her to tell the truth.

“It’s better to have fun alone than to have fun together.”

The lord said something that made people confused - he always did this recently.

"First of all, I won't spend much money on this celebration competition."

"Second, the competition is to let the people use their power to prevent them from doing nothing and trying to conspire behind the scenes."

"In the end, it doesn't matter if they are happy or not? My happiness is the most important thing!"

These words made the Lich leader bow his head and remain silent, the giant scythe became a little frustrated, and Niniya covered her face to show that she couldn't understand.

However, Vincent did not do it on a whim, he worked very hard to upgrade the system.

If you can raise the protection value to 10,000 as soon as possible, you will be able to play with high-end toys more happily.

War? Development? Let the demons become bigger and stronger and create greater glory?

Save it, your status in the royal family is just that, and your efforts are nothing more than making wedding clothes for others.

Even if the governance fails, at worst the Abyss Territory will become a peaceful noble. Wouldn't it be nice to continue rubbing toys every day without having to worry about it?

Except for the craftsman god Kraftus, no one has any significance to him.

Next, the specific methods of the competition were gradually improved, and various publicity began to build momentum.

"The 'Craftsman Cup' Paper Bird Competition will be held on the celebration day. All residents of Silver Dragon Castle are allowed to participate. The entry fee is 2 silver coins."

"There are three competition categories planned, including flight distance competition, airborne time competition, and design innovation competition. The awards are divided into champion, runner-up and third runner-up, and there are 10 participation awards."

"The competition is divided into preliminaries and the main round. The preliminaries last for three days. Participants need to pay to make paper birds in the lord's castle. The top twenty can participate in the main round."

"The champion of each event will receive a bonus of 30 gold coins, the second place will receive 20 gold coins, the third place will receive 10 gold coins, and the participation bonus will be 1 gold coin."

News of the competition quickly spread throughout the castle, and the already popular toy turned into a stepping stone to get rich, and everyone went crazy.

2 silver coins, small investment, big profit.

There are so many prize places, and as long as they enter the main competition, there is a high probability that participants will not leave empty-handed.

Not only children, but also adults are beginning to rack their brains to study how to make paper birds fly farther and higher.

All paper bird masters were respected, and they began to continuously purchase paper and improve on the production methods taught by the lords.

Bigger or smaller, heavier or lighter, longer or shorter, the shape of the wings, the center of gravity of the fuselage, and the material of the paper have all become hot topics of concern.

The lifeless city became active because of this competition.

The mood of the people was high, and the opposition to the lords was much weaker.

Although the demon lord is young and ridiculous, he is indeed better than his predecessor, the vampire who stole money, food, and women!

Even if you want to give him some color, at least you have to wait until you receive the award.

While the people are preparing to show off their skills in the competition, what is Lord Vincent busy with?

In addition to giggling every day as the system data skyrocketed, Vincent had to face what he had boasted about.

In this competition, not only could he not spend money, he also had to make money.

If the lord himself has nothing to gain, he needs to find someone to sponsor him.

"The lord seeks happiness for the people, and the church is willing to bear part of the hosting expenses."

Bishop Beckmann learned of the lord's difficulties and expressed his willingness to donate generously.

There is no love without reason, and there is no sponsorship without reason. Vincent knows very well that the bishop will not buy at a loss. Thousands of people will gather nearby during the game. This is a good opportunity to preach.

." Vincent immediately reciprocated, "Your priest may be a little busier."

"When I was young, I was also a ridiculous and careless person. I was inspired by the gods to step into the right path, but I still miss my youth in my heart."

The bishop expressed a few words of emotion and then got back to business.

"I wonder if I can reminisce about yesterday's happy times on the field..."

"My lord, you should lead by example and be a happy example of the God of Light and Order on earth."

The leaders of the church are also tempted and want to show their hands in person?

Fortunately, Vincent was very familiar with this kind of leadership and understood it immediately.

"I have a very good production method that has never been taught to me. It seems that I need to trouble you to participate in the innovative design competition and show it to everyone."

"This is the first time, and it won't happen again in the future." Bishop Beckman smiled slyly, "Who said the demons don't value friendship?"

"May our friendship last forever."

So, Vincent pulled and pulled out three hundred gold coins from the church.

Anyway, this money was originally given by him, so there is no shame in taking it back.

On that day, Vincent communicated with the church bishop Bellman, and the children he had paid to rescue went out in force, distributing small notes everywhere in the streets and alleys, spreading the news to everyone.

Nowadays, no one would object to posting small advertisements randomly on the street, but it makes people feel novel.

The next step is to find a businessman with more cash.

But businessmen are businessmen, and they prefer loans to sponsorship.

The largest local Southern Chamber of Commerce publicly stated that it would not sponsor the lord, which made Vincent feel very embarrassed.

Chairman Luke stated in advance that the businessmen were worried because all the original loans had not been recovered.

In addition, they are unwilling to get too close to the demons, which may affect their business in various parts of the north.

But if he continues to borrow money at usury, this fat-headed old guy agrees.

The Southern Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in the territory. Luke's wealth and influence are not small. Not only does he have business in various places, but his people also pay taxes on many local manors and villages.

When he saw the lord, the old guy looked confident and arrogant, which made Vincent very angry.

This is not a show-off, it is simply a mismatch.

There was not much communication between the two parties, and Vincent felt an indescribable irritation that made him not want to continue talking normally.

Even though he had convinced himself to be patient beforehand, when he saw Luke's old chrysanthemum face, he couldn't help but want to punch him.

After leaving the house, Vincent received a report from his subordinates and discovered that Luke had actually installed a lot of exorcism talismans in his home and hired several magicians to enhance his magic power.

He is so deceptive that even the church will not treat him like this!

"He even dares to make money from the devil. He really belongs to him." Vincent said privately to the leader of the lich who was traveling with him, "Have you investigated clearly?"

"This person may be related to the rebels." The Lich replied, "The financial backer behind the demon hunter is most likely him."
