Chapter 325: Gambling Agreement

"Let people in nearby cities know that we will hold a large-scale event here, and there will be lots of food, performances, and all kinds of good-looking and fun things gathered here. In this way, people in nearby towns will

Come to our town to participate in this event just like participating in a guild war."

"Then, we just need to make this wedding beautiful, warm and grand! Let everyone who sees the wedding think it is so great and beautiful!"

"As for young people, since I am also a young person, I think some of our young people's mentality is quite easy to understand. Our young people are more impulsive and enthusiastic, and like to follow their feelings. When they see our

The wedding town is so enthusiastic, so naturally they will have some expectations for our town. Similarly, they will also want to live in our town."

"In terms of work, there is still a lot of uncultivated land near our town. These farmlands can be sold to people who come to live there, which can support our agriculture. In this way, some young people can be attracted to settle in our town."

"In this case, the population base of our town can be partially expanded. Of course, this stage may be a long-term progress, and it will not be effective in a short time. But from a long-term perspective, it must be

Actions that are good for our town."

As Arrow's explanation ended, everyone who had been silent just now began to whisper and discuss among themselves.

Some people think this is a very good idea, but others think it is simply ridiculous. They have never heard of a town paying people to get married.

As the mayor, Round Cheese tilted his head and thought about it. From the corner of his eye, he glanced at Mr. Sugar-coated Wine next to him. Unexpectedly, the old gentleman was also looking at him with his head tilted, as if he was also waiting for his reply.

Seeing this, Round Cheese coughed deliberately and said, "Well... there is no way to make money in a short time?"

"No, of course there are ways to make money."

Ai Luo had long expected such a scene, so he opened the account book he had prepared in his hand and continued——

"Since it is a large-scale party event, there will naturally be ticket money. We will have a large-scale party for three consecutive days. Since it is a large-scale event, the experience you accumulated during the guild war can naturally continue to be used and provide various souvenirs.

, food, drinks, accommodation, etc. Moreover, the infrastructure of our town has actually been designed during the Guild War, and overall it does not cost much money."

After hearing this, the sugar-coated wine old man, perhaps seeing that Round Cheese could never ask any meaningful questions, finally said: "President Arrow, what you said sounds so nice, but are you really sure that this kind of thing can be done?"

Can you do it? Guild war is a competition. Ordinary people usually don’t have much opportunity to see magic and those powerful martial arts, so of course they will come and buy tickets. But this time, watching people get married? Is this really possible?"

Ai Luo smiled and nodded, and said: "Mr. Sugar-coated Wine, do you know how the word 'festival' came about?"

Tangyijiu thought about it and shook his head.

"Festivals are originally reserved to commemorate certain people or things and exist as a memory. But on the other hand, festivals also represent a kind of joy and represent a synonym for having fun.

"

"As long as it's a festival, it doesn't matter who or what the festival is commemorating. As long as the festival can be enjoyed and lived happily, I've even thought of a name.

Well, this holiday is called 'Valentine's Day'."

"A couple in Pelican Town decided to get married on a specific 'Valentine's Day' that has been known in Pelican Town since ancient times. And the entire town used the warmest celebrations to celebrate the couple on this day.

Blessings. As long as there is such an atmosphere, some of the people who come to visit will definitely be moved by this atmosphere, so they will consume, and then they will yearn for our town."

"As for where the holiday 'Valentine's Day' came from? It actually doesn't matter at all. Let's just say that this holiday is very ancient. There are even several versions of the legend, but we only know that it is a beautiful holiday.

."

“What elevates the atmosphere of Valentine’s Day to the highest level is actually the hype before the holiday. As long as people can know that this is a holiday about love and family, then everyone, whether they are married or not, will want to come and see it.

Take a look. After all, no one would dislike having too many holidays, right? We need to create a lot of slogans and then promote a lot of advertising slogans to make everyone feel that holding a wedding on Valentine's Day is the happiest thing.

The young men and women who hold a wedding on this day will receive the blessings of the entire Pelican Town. As long as these concepts are instilled in people's minds, making money will make our hands cramp when we count the money, instead of worrying about whether we can make money or not.

Make money~~~!”

Margo didn't know what others were thinking, but she knew exactly what she was thinking now.

At this point, she finally understood why this short man could become the president of a guild, while she had been in many places for so many years and could only be the mistress of a noble.

And why do I look so stupid in the eyes of those nobles, but this president can continuously defeat Viscount Norris and Earl Garp!

gap……

At this moment, Margo truly felt what the gap was.

The round cheese over there was already dumbfounded.

Not only the president, but also the other townspeople were all dumbfounded and seemed to be unable to keep up with Ai Luo's thoughts.

But that doesn't matter, Ai Luo himself doesn't want these people to understand what he wants to do, as long as he can convince them to follow him.

"Well... President Arrow, your proposal... is really novel."

When everyone was silent, Mr. Sugar-coated Wine touched his beard, nodded slightly, and said with a smile -

"Moreover, the concept of 'Valentine's Day' is also very similar to the feeling that we want to create a tourist city... Hmm, that's fine. But, I'm still a little uneasy... What if I mess it up? There is a concept.

It's one thing, but whether it can really succeed is another thing. Don't you think so? Mr. Mayor."

Round Cheese had been listening, but suddenly he felt nervous when the topic turned to him, and he seemed a little uncomfortable: "Ah...well...I think...this matter does need some protection.

right?"

Ai Luo understood this. After all, the mayor was a man who loved money, and it was indeed difficult for him to spend part of his investment money on such illusory things.

At that moment, Ai Luo nodded slightly and said with a smile: "Well, how about we make a betting agreement?"

"Betting agreement?"

Round Cheese seemed to have never heard of this concept and seemed hesitant.

Ai Luo smiled and said: "It's very simple. Mr. Mayor and I have made a contract. I only need Pelican Town to come up with 300 gold coins as an investment in this matter. During the period from the beginning to the end of the event, if

The entire profit of Pelican Town, I mean including all kinds of accommodation fees, food fees, tickets, etc., as long as there are economic transactions in our town, all the expenses incurred, the total profit needs to be more than 300 gold coins."

"If the profit does not exceed 300 gold coins at the end of the event, that is, the gap of the previous 500 gold coins has not been filled, then the remaining gap will be borne by us, Mermaid Song."

Margaux was shocked when she heard this! She looked at Ai Luo next to her with a somewhat incredulous look. After thinking about it, she reached out and gently pushed the president: "Are you crazy? 500 pieces."

The vacancy of gold coins? In just a few days? Earn so much?"

The round cheese in front thought for a while and said: "In this case... what if 500 gold coins are reached?"

Ai Luo smiled: "That's very simple. All profits over 300 gold coins will belong to our Mermaid Song. At least this can ensure that our Pelican Town will not have any losses. I think this method will be beneficial to Pelican Town."

How about saying there is no harm at all?"

After listening to Ai Luo's introduction, everyone present began to whisper among themselves again.

The concept of a gambling agreement is probably a very new concept for people here, and it is really not easy to figure it out for a while.

But after discussing with each other for a while, they at least understood one thing -

No matter what, Pelican Town will not lose money.

After understanding this, the opposing voices just now gradually decreased and slowly dissipated.

On the other side, the sugar-coated wine old man nodded slightly, and seemed to have nothing to object to this proposal. After the voices of everyone's discussion gradually decreased, he said: "President Ai Luo, you have said it.

For this reason, I have no objection. I just want to invest in your Pelican Town. If you can expand the scale of this town so that I, as an investor, can make a profit without losing money, then whatever you do. Now

I just want to hear the mayor’s opinion. Mayor Round Cheese, what do you think of this method? Is it feasible?”

Round Cheese was stunned for a moment, then turned his head. He saw the old gentleman's eyes full of curiosity, doubt, not very firm, but looking forward to an answer.

Looking at Sugar-Coated Wine's expectant eyes, the mayor felt that his mental pressure had increased a lot! His body trembled slightly, and then he looked at Ai Luo over there with a slightly pleading look.
