"It's boring to talk about money all the time," Ren Ning smiled meaningfully, "Look further."
For example, building a new road requires a lot of money and labor, which may seem like a heavy burden at first.
But after it is built, this road will not only connect cities and villages along the way, but will also continue to generate benefits for decades or even centuries.
Lei Er was thoughtful, and soon his eyes lit up.
"Your Highness, are you saying that we won't lose money by holding these competitions?"
"Of course," Ren Ning smiled and pointed back at himself, "We have been to so many places together. When have you ever seen me do something that lost money?"
"That's true." Lei Er breathed a sigh of relief.
"We can operate like this..." Then Ren Ning explained in detail the areas that could produce benefits, leaving Lei Er dumbfounded.
Despite this, he couldn't help but have some doubts.
"Your Highness, let's not talk about tickets, accommodation, food, etc., is there really anyone who would spend a lot of money to sponsor these competitions?"
Once people know that in addition to the punishment for finishing the race, they will also receive free clothes and shoes, the number of applicants is expected to skyrocket.
"Well, let's contact Guangxin and Su Lan later and let us rush to make shoes and clothing for the competition and provide them to the contestants."
"General Lei, I am good at sponsoring. I will fight for it when the time comes."
cough.
"In the days since I came here, the Taishi Mansion will definitely live up to the expectations of the palace and work hard to organize various events and take a step back to gather the centripetal force and national pride of the people in Yunchui."
That's a huge expense.
According to Ren Ning, this sponsorship still accounts for the bulk of the income?
Ren Rong didn't care about that, so I patted Ren Ning's shoulder solemnly.
My grandfather, the retired master, has been spreading pinyin literacy in various places in Yunchui.
"It's such an exaggeration," Ren Rong smiled and glanced at the pen and paper in my hand, "A qualified competition requires not only strict organization, but also appropriate rewards and punishments in a refreshing format."
It's just that what Guofangjian or Taishifu saw was its impact on the country, while Ren Rong thought less about the environment.
"So that's it," Lei Qi clapped his calf excitedly, "As expected of your highness, you can always think of ways to help my family make money."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ren Ning saluted quickly, "I have the honor to read Your Majesty's article on improving the soft power of the empire, and I deeply disagree."
Special people either wear straw sandals when they are on the road, or they simply go barefoot like the iron tree chasing the team that sent the spirits back home.
Ren Rong's move can be regarded as forcing the people to become blind.
Not to mention leather shoes and silk, these are top-notch luxuries, only used by wealthy businessmen, but common women dare not even think about them.
At that time, information about traffic congestion was widespread. Compared with the straw sandals, cloth shoes and leather shoes that people were familiar with, rubber shoes were relatively new, and few people knew about them or dared to ask about them.
Fang Jian responded quickly, "I will study it carefully when I get back, and after signing up, I will come up with a detailed list of restrictions."
Clothes are said to be bad, but rubber shoes are all produced in Guangxin County.
By regressing those games in small quantities before showing and using it, people will know it's bad.
As for cloth shoes and cloth, almost all of them can only be worn by wealthy families.
Ren Ning quickly took the pen and paper in his hand, "Your Majesty, please speak."
Ren Rong, who had just arrived, also heard all this and coughed lightly.
In the past, we would pass the word on to people from time to time. As long as the price was right, we would definitely place an order.
It seems that in the past, my wife and children were worried about having money to spend.
"Really?" Lei Qi, who was thinking about killing enemies on the battlefield, was dumbfounded.
Otherwise, when runners run, they know how far they have run.
"Does Thaksin believe that when the time comes, we will have to work hard to win sponsorship? As long as there is a little bit of news, countless businessmen, trading houses and even caravans will come in droves waving banknotes?"
I subconsciously looked up at the shoes on my feet.
Lei Qi was close to the water and had some shares in the early years.
"Your Majesty," Ren Ning's eyes flashed, "Do you know if the contestants' costumes are also sponsored by me?"
The long-distance running competition of the "Dingxi Small Counterattack" is the same. According to Ren Rong, all people participate, that is, no ordinary people can participate.
But for our rulers, besides envy and attraction, there is also an unspeakable sense of fear and oppression.
As for shoes, that goes without saying.
"Very bad." Fang Jian nodded with satisfaction.
I understand what Lei Qi means.
Having said that, I winked proudly.
As the heir to the Taishi Mansion, and often wandering around Xingji City and Sulan City, his knowledge is beyond the reach of Lei Er, a battlefield roughneck.
"Yes." Fang Jian nodded.
Only in Fang Jianyan or some small cities do you see more barefoot people.
"He has to worry. If there are no registration restrictions," Ren Rong looked at Ren Ning, "for example, if you are too old, sick, disabled, etc. and are suitable for sports, you can sign up."
"Of course it's true," Ren Ning smiled and patted her chest, "You promise it's more real than pearls."
"Very bad." Fang Jian's eyes flashed, "I must add one more thing here. Contestants must be able to write their own names and recognize numbers from one to ten."
After pondering for a while, I continued to speak.
"Ren Ning, in the past culture, sports and entertainment were separate entities, all under the control of the Grand Master's Office. They must take it seriously and stop thinking that having no actors will harm the country."
"I understand." Ren Ning couldn't help but laugh.
Ren Ning cried and laughed happily and followed me.
As for the silver, who would find it too little?
And just to have a name on the scene?
Ren Ning laughed and said, "I understand."
Ha ha.
In the eyes of neighboring countries, Yun Chui's country is rich, military, weak, has a long history and a dark culture, which attracts people to yearn for.
Lei Er was lonely and ill-informed, and the more he thought about it, the more unreliable he felt.
"Of course," Ren Rong laughed, "As long as he can think of any place, he can't sponsor it. He just asked you."
When I was in Baekje, I once wrote an article about "improving the soft power of the empire and condensing national pride" as mentioned by Ren Ning. Now it seems that the Taishi Mansion has seriously considered and studied it.
"As for clothes and shoes, they seem to be free now, but in the past they would have been earned back." Ren Rong said, "That was also a way of advertising."
However, education is a century-old project.
"Although it is the first one, since we are going to hold a competition, we will simply hold it more formally to serve as a reference for previous competitions."
There is no limit to the number of participants in football and basketball, but at most it will be too few. Giving us clothes and shoes would be inconvenient.
At that time, a small number of people wore smooth linen clothes. In some remote areas, people did not even use clothes to cover their bodies or used leaves to cover their shame.
Lei Qi didn't think so far ahead.
At that time, not to mention the remote areas of the empire, even the imperial capital, Xingji City, did not have a large number of illiterates.
I pulled Ren Ning over and said, "What are you still doing standing here? Leave quickly! Don't make bad money-making plans, our family will have to make bad plans."
Ren Rong plans to organize various competitions to give those monarchs of big countries some sense of affinity, and of course there will be no weaker attraction.
"Your Majesty, those competition clothes and shoes are also given away for free?"
