I will hold high the dragon flag in the world of the heavens

How to Make Big Money in Medieval Times.

In the Middle Ages when there was no productivity and no industrial capacity, it was simply impossible to earn 1200 billion in a short period of time.

But for Chen Mu, it was a task that could be easily accomplished.

One of the easiest ways is to store assets and print banknotes.

But this thing is too sensitive, so it can only be transferred to an insensitive industry.

Since the king likes to watch the tournament, it is entirely possible to play some tricks that will be played by later generations.

Sports Lottery!

Fucai!

Playing Fields and Arenas!
These are super money-making machines.

The arena and the arena are naturally the big money-makers.

Entertainment is so scarce in Westeros.

There is only the most basic trial fighting here, and there are no sports events, so Chen Mu can play it out here.

After some discussion, they quickly came up with some solutions.

It's a pity that the literacy rate in Westeros is pitifully low, and only nobles and bachelors can read and write.

And these bachelors were only the reservists of the nobles before.

If you have a method, then think about how to get the people of Westeros to accept their business plan, and then use the business plan to achieve their subsequent goals.

The first steam industry catastrophe killed a large number of nobles, and businessmen gradually gained momentum.

But Chen Mu absolutely can't do that.

Otherwise, they will make a wedding dress for capital!

The existence of capital is to earn profits.

And capital has no national boundaries, and when making profits, it will subconsciously ignore big things!

Therefore, Chen Mu must not release this evil beast.

What they have to do is to benefit the people at the grassroots level.

How to win over the grassroots people?

Just let them have a good life.

Then, let a little flame rise in the hearts of the people.

Well, not much, just red flames.

Guaranteed to burn out all the flames of the old system.

But first they have to solve a small problem, how to build several large arenas in a few months.

But these things are not difficult for Chen Mu.

There are countless plans listed by the think tank, and they only need to make a few modifications to list dozens of business plans.

Early the next morning, Zhang Jin went to look for Ed with a large stack of documents.

Ed had breakfast, then looked at the file.

[Proposal on how to improve sports business and circular business application]

When Ed saw the twists and turns, and even misplaced words frequently in the proposal, he was very amazed at the language talent of these Eastern Tang people.

These people were struggling to communicate before, but now they can not only communicate fluently, but also write letters.

Opening the proposal, Ed carefully watched it.

Since His Majesty the King likes martial arts competitions, we can take this as a career.

This business is athletic competition.

We can distribute money to build a huge arena and invite more forces to participate...

Seeing this, Ed frowned.

"Zhang, Wang Lingdi doesn't have that much cash. We are in debt of 600 million Golden Dragons."

"Master Prime Minister, please read this plan carefully. There are surprises in the back!"

Ed nodded, then watched patiently...

Ten minutes later, Ed's unsmiling face was full of smiles: "This is really a genius plan. As long as the king's territory can be successful, then we can have a steady stream of cash, but we need a field to build the stadium. And...do you guys have a way to quickly build the arena in two months?"

"As long as the Prime Minister supports it, we will definitely be able to complete the construction!"

Ed stood up: "Then thank you for your help. I will convince Robert first, and then let the merchants from King's Landing come over."

It was easy to convince Robert. Ed only showed him the plan, and then told all the chains. Robert, who loved the excitement, immediately agreed to Ed's plan.

In the afternoon, the nobles of the Red Castle discovered that the new prime minister was a little abnormal.

He does not participate in government affairs, does not deal with anything, and only calls all the merchants in the king's territory.

The nobles also came to the meeting.

Ed is not good at words, but he knows how to use people.

Soon, Liu Ruyi, a translation expert under Chen Mu's team, came out and began to act as a commentator.

The task of explaining is easy!
Everything is centered on the Prime Minister benefiting King's Landing and the people of the Seven Kingdoms.

This meeting is called the Merchants Conference.

The meeting is mainly for the investment promotion and investment attraction of the arena.

The Prime Minister wants to build an arena outside King's Landing.

Arena projects are varied.

In addition to traditional martial arts competitions, there are also a large number of events.

And the bonus of the project has increased by 30.00% than before.

A game actually reached 13 golden dragons!
The nobles were excited when they heard this.

Countless businessmen are even more crazy.

His Majesty Robert is very generous.Every time there is a martial arts competition, many traders have made countless profits.

But even crazier things started.

Liu Ruyi explained that the construction of the arena needs to waste a lot of property, so it needs the support of big guys to participate in the shares.

The nobles hesitated, and the merchants hesitated even more.

"My lord, with all due respect, it will take at least ten years for such a huge arena to be established. It is impossible for us to invest ten years to make a profit, right? In more than ten years, our daughters are all married."

There was laughter in the conference room.

Liu Ruyi smiled and said: "We can issue a military order and build a huge arena within two months, but we need the support of big guys!"

Ed also stood up: "On behalf of King Robert, the guardian of the whole territory, I guarantee that if we cannot complete the construction of the comprehensive arena within two months, we can fully compensate everyone for their losses."

Afterwards, Ed invited Dukes of the Seven Kingdoms and nobles at the earl level to participate in the shares.

The nobles also felt that the success rate of this matter was very high, and they got Ed's written agreement, so they offered to pay on the spot.

Soon, the Hundred Thousand Golden Dragons written agreement of intent was basically completed.

"The first 1000 gold dragons need to be seen tomorrow. Otherwise, it will affect the speed of our recruitment of workers."

Many nobles nodded one after another, expressing that the money will be delivered soon.

Later, Ed showed his cards with the businessman again.

"You see, the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms have invested a lot of money. I can also guarantee you in the name of King Robert. We will invite you to be sponsors after the arena starts."

Compared with nobles, businessmen not only have to prepare to participate in arena competitions, but also need to pay a lot of franchise fees to enter the arena.

Businessmen naturally did not give up this opportunity to make a lot of money.

They all responded.

Among them, the Minister of Finance, Littlefinger Tipbell, was the most active. He was willing to give out 5000 Golden Dragons as the first sponsor this time.

Ed hates the Women's Branch, but for a good start, he agrees with Littlefinger's words.

Subsequently, a large number of merchants in King's Landing also started a sponsorship program.

The speed of raising golden dragons was faster this time, and they raised up to 5 golden dragons at a time for investment and sponsorship fees.

In short, the prime minister has earned enough money to run the tournament before it even started.

But the matter is not over yet.

In the afternoon of the next day, Chen Mu took two hundred soldiers sent by the nobles of the Seven Kingdoms for special training.

Their training method is very simple, that is, how to command the workers under their command.

The only requirement Chen Mu has for them is to allow them to correctly implement their architectural plans.

The architectural work consists of various high-resolution drawings.

Even children can watch the drawing construction.

In the next few days, these soldiers received intensive training.

Chen Mu wants to train these people to become contractors.

At the same time, dozens of soldiers from the northern border and people from the Eastern Tang Dynasty also arrived at the flea nest.

They recruited a large number of staff directly with big speakers.

"It's recruiting, it's recruiting... His Majesty the King is recruiting... He manages two meals a day, and provides wages of about 50 copper coins. The wages are paid every five days, and construction can begin after receiving simple training. This is His Majesty the King What are you still hesitating about the order issued by the Prime Minister?

After yelling for a long time, finally the person with the flea nest couldn't help it.

"My lord, do you really pay us so much?"

The labor cost in King’s Landing is very low. The daily salary is about 20 copper coins, which can only feed a family of three.

And the wages of these people directly exceed twice the ordinary wages.

They feel like it's a giant pie.

"Yes, we have the support of His Majesty the King, why are you still hesitating?"

"My lord, do you have any restrictions on recruiting?"

"If you can move a stone weighing fifteen catties in front of you, you can walk a hundred steps."

This stone is an easy task for these Westerosians who are more than twice the strength of ordinary people.

Then, this person was the first to lift the stone, and then walked around.

"Congratulations, you have been admitted! I will record your name."

"Brad, my name is Brad!"

"address!"

"Flea nest, east street, that door is my home."

Zhang Jin looked at the shabby shed Brad was pointing at, nodded and said, "Brad, you have been admitted. At this time tomorrow, go to the martial arts arena outside the city to gather. There will be lunch and dinner for you!"

Then, he took out 20 copper plates from a large box. "This is the reward for your first registration!"

The man quickly thanked: "My lord, there are two younger brothers in my family, can they join your work?"

"Sorry, because there are not many jobs, in order to ensure that more families can benefit, we only recruit one worker per household."

Hearing that a family recruited a person, the person's face was full of regret. He took the 20 copper coins and happily went to buy food.

With a leader, countless people who were trapped in the poverty line raised their hands and asked themselves to be a member of the construction company.

After a busy day, they directly recruited 3000 employees!
Afterwards, it was special training...
