The birth of various sports has successfully diverted people's attention.
It also made the brothel completely cold!
The effect was so remarkable, Ying Zheng was extremely happy!
"When the popularity of things like table tennis subsides, I wonder if people will return to brothels to have fun again?"
"I can't say for sure! But I have a way to keep the heat as long as possible!"
Such things have not been eradicated in future generations. It is impossible to completely eradicate brothels with just a few sports events.
After those rich people get tired of playing those sports, they will still set their sights on brothels again!
All I can say is try to divert people’s attention!
"Oh? Tell me?"
Ying Zheng clasped his hands behind his back, full of interest.
"Create a sports meeting!"
"Sports day? What is that?"
Ying Zheng was very puzzled by this new word.
"The common people are now familiar with table tennis, badminton and other games. Just like the imperial examination, small-scale competitions can be held in each village first, and then the outstanding players from each village can be gathered in the county, and the best ones can be selected to compete in Xianyang. In the finals, rewards will be given to the top three! Each county can also set some awards!"
Ying Feiyu explained with a smile.
"Yeah! What a good idea. In order to participate in these competitions, I believe many people will practice at home, so as to forget those places of smoke and willows...!"
Ying Zheng nodded in agreement at first. After a moment, he seemed to have thought of something again and said doubtfully, "But the court not only has to arrange officials to supervise this matter, but also establishes awards. I'm afraid it will cost a lot of money, right?"
"Father, now that the national treasury is rich, why are you still reluctant to part with this small amount of money?"
Ying Feiyu felt very helpless.
The treasury was in deficit before, so it’s okay for this old guy to be stingy!
But now that the treasury is rich, this old guy is still so stingy. It's really impressive!
"You brat, do you understand that money should be spent wisely? The national treasury has just become rich, and there will be many places to use money in the future!"
Being called stingy by his son, Ying Zheng immediately became angry.
"Father, if my son said that holding a sports meeting would not only cost the treasury, but actually make money, would you believe it?"
Ying Feiyu smiled lightly.
"Hmph! Come on, pull it off. According to what you said, each county will also distribute rewards. This part of the money must come from the court. This part alone will take a lot of money, let alone the finals in Xianyang. !”
Even if the county people try to show some interest, they won't be able to hold back too much.
The competition in Xianyang cannot be vague. The awards must be set seriously. Otherwise, will you not be laughed at by everyone in the world?
Today's daily necessities for people are newspapers. As a major event, the sports meeting must be published in newspapers.
The prizes are also highly anticipated, so they must be generous.
If there is nothing attractive, who would still want to waste time on it?
It will not achieve the purpose of diverting people's attention!
"Father, if you were a commoner and a sports meeting was held in your village or even county, would you go and watch the fun?"
Ying Feiyu asked with a smile.
"Of course……!"
Ying Zheng nodded without thinking, "People's lives are inherently lacking in fun. If such a big thing happens, people must go and watch!"
"Wouldn't it be intercepted? As long as there are people watching, there is a chance to make money!"
As a time traveler, I am extremely sensitive to business opportunities.
"As long as there are people watching, there is a chance to make money...?"
Ying Zheng frowned and began to think. After a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, "You are really a genius. You are right. As long as you attract some merchants and sell some things at the stadium like a cement highway, you can really make money." A lot of money!”
"That's right! Recruiting merchants to sell things is one thing. In addition, you can also charge advertising fees!"
"advertising fee?"
The first time Ying Zheng heard this word was in a newspaper.
As long as you pay the money, you can advertise your store in the newspaper.
In the words of that boy, spread the word!
"There will be many people coming to the arena, so you can advertise on the fences and athletes' clothing. You can even let the businessmen go to the middle of the arena to advertise on their own during halftime. The fees vary depending on the location and length of time. It’s different! I believe that with this method, the court will not only not need to pay any extra money, but will also make a lot of money!"
"Yeah! You really are a kid...!"
When Ying Feiyu said those words, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and finally he laughed directly, "Haha, this is really a good idea. This move can not only divert the attention of the people, but also prevent them from hanging around all the time. Willow's Land also allows the common people to exercise more and maintain a healthy body! The most important thing is that they don't need to take a penny from the court!"
Being able to do big things without spending money is what Ying Zheng wants to see most.
"Father, did you just complain about your son spending money randomly?"
Ying Feiyu pretended to have a very aggrieved expression.
"Hmph! Who told you, kid, not to speak clearly? How could I know about your kid's twists and turns?"
Ying Zheng took the blame and put the responsibility on Xiao Zhengtai.
"Father, things are rare and valuable. Although sports games are good, they cannot be held too frequently!"
"Yeah! That makes sense! The sports meeting is just to encourage people to exercise and strengthen their bodies. Industry and agriculture cannot be abandoned because of this!"
Ying Zheng nodded in agreement, thought for a moment, and continued: "How about... just like the scientific examination, how about it be held once every three years?"
"Can!"
After deciding on the matter, Ying Zheng happily went to Lian'er and told him his idea of holding a sports meeting.
Lian'er blinked and asked, "Brother Zheng, I wonder if women can participate?"
This question really stopped him.
When I was discussing with that boy before, I didn’t think about the woman at all!
"Women are weak. If we use sports meets to encourage women to practice more, it will be of great benefit!"
"Well, you're right, then let's hold another women's sports meeting!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Lian'er smiled sweetly.
Then newspapers reported the detailed regulations of the games, and the people were excited after seeing it!
"Did you see it? The newspaper said that our Daqin will start holding sports games next year. All people can participate. Those who perform well in the village will be exempted from taxes for the year! Those who achieve good results in the counties will receive certificates of honor and generous bonuses. If you are lucky and advance to the finals, His Majesty will personally award the award!"
"The streets and alleys have been studying this matter for the past two days, and everyone knows about it even if they don't read the newspapers! My two sons are practicing basketball hard during this period, and they are ready to show off their talents!"
"Yes! The incompetent one in my family is almost the same. He plays badminton with his sisters every day, and we will participate in the competition together...!"
As soon as the newspaper came out, the people's enthusiasm for the movement only increased, and the brothel madams even wanted to cry!
