Sure enough, Yun Xi looked at him and told him the reason.
"There is also a house underneath this stand, and it is made of fairy cement. Of course it can withstand tens of thousands of spectators."
"It's made of fairy cement, so there should be no problem. I've decided to buy tickets." Yun Zhihe said happily.
Yun Xi felt incredible and looked at him with wide eyes and asked: "I am worried that the seats will not be full when the time comes, but you are worried that there will be no seats. Which one is right?"
"If there is a ticket, you must buy it. The stakes are too high for this Guanpo. It is actually a salt mine." Yun Zhihe nodded, thought for a while and said, "Not only the Jingyan family is concerned about this, but the Yun family is concerned about it, as well as the rest of the Jingyan family." I also want to come and have a look.”
"In the past, there were only seven or eight hundred people in the Cuju competition, which was considered too much. This time, I plan to calculate it according to the highest ten times, and it is only seven or eight thousand people." Yun Xi didn't believe it at all and insisted on his own idea.
Both of them felt that what they said was reasonable, and neither could convince the other.
Ten days later, the first Cuju competition in Yanting started in the afternoon.
Thanks to the Zhaojiazhuang workshop and two salt houses, Yanting Town no longer has two meals, but three meals.
Just after lunch, Yun Xi, who was on holiday at Yanfang, couldn't wait to make an appointment with Yun Zhihe.
When they arrived at the Cuju competition venue called the Gymnasium, they saw that it was already packed with people.
The two of them couldn't help but gasp. There were so many people, what if something went wrong?
Fortunately, there were figures in colorful and black clothes. They held wooden sticks in their hands and looked coldly at the pedestrians in front of them.
The colorful ones are of course the security officers, and the black ones are the officers. The two parties are now working together to maintain order.
The gymnasium, like the Xuetang Yamen, is located in the middle of Yanting Town, with the Yun family on one side and the aristocratic family on the other.
Yun Zhihe looked at this gymnasium carefully and found that it was indeed different from the previous Cuju gymnasiums.
First of all, it is a two-story building with a radius of one mile and can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators; the previous Cuju Hall was just a courtyard, with only a hundred or so steps around.
The gymnasium has a cylindrical shape and has four gates for easy entry and exit; while the Cuju Hall is a square structure with only one gate, making it inconvenient to enter and exit.
After Yun Zhihe circled around, he was quickly absorbed by other situations.
It seems like a big market has opened here, with people selling rice krispie treats and candied haws of apples in an endless stream.
Not only snacks are sold, but also cold water is sold.
Yun Xi looked at the water sellers and saw that this man was not very old, only a fifteen-year-old boy.
There were two buckets of water in front of him, as well as two benches. On the benches were four bowls with water in them.
Yun Xi curiously pointed to the water in the bucket and asked, "Brother, is your water well water or river water?"
If it was river water, he would definitely not want it. The river water was dirty and full of feces and urine, so he wouldn't drink it.
"Of course it's well water. How can you use river water to bully the guest?" The young man bowed his hands and answered politely.
Seeing that the young man was polite, Yun Xi nodded, looked at the water in the bowl and asked, "What's the price?"
"Sir, there are two kinds of water. One is one penny for two bowls. If it is not enough, you can add another bowl; the other is two pence for one bowl with mints in it." The young man answered patiently.
Mint candy is a candy that was recently launched in Zhaojiazhuang. It is cool and refreshing when you put it in your mouth, which makes people have endless aftertaste.
Yun Xi looked at Yun Zhihe and said, "I'll have two bowls. This feels refreshing."
The young man took the copper coin and handed it to Yun Xi respectfully.
As he handed it over, he looked at the person. It seemed that the person was rich. He did not choose the abundant cenote water, but chose mint water.
Yun Xi didn't know that the young man was actually from Jingyan Woodland, and the young man didn't know that the guest officer taking care of him was from the Yun family.
Normally, both parties would never take care of each other's business.
But at this time, people were coming and going, and people were passing by them all the time. They didn't care about this, and they didn't have time to care about it.
Yun Zhihe and Yun Xi finally came to the gate and lined up their wheels waiting to go in.
There were two officers on both sides of the gate, constantly checking people's tickets and an engraved wooden sign.
When Yun Xi came to the ticket window, he saw the official saying regretfully: "The tickets were sold out yesterday. Please come and buy them as soon as possible next time."
No, Yanting only houses 10,000 people, and there are also young children. How come it’s all sold out?
He turned around and bowed his hands to the official at the ticket window, and asked glumly: "Reporting to the official, there are only 10,000 people in Yanting Town, why are the tickets sold out?"
"The people who come to buy tickets are not only people from Jingyan, but also people from the county." The official replied while returning the courtesy.
It seems that I lost the bet, and I didn't expect that this competition would be so popular.
Yun Wuwu was such a crow's mouth that he turned a good thing into a bad thing, Yun Xi thought in wonder.
His frustrated expression soon disappeared as he saw a group of people selling tickets in front of him.
"What, this ticket is only ten cents, why don't you grab it?" Yun Xi couldn't help but get furious.
The government obviously sold only two cents, but how come it turned into ten cents in the hands of these people?
When he was angry, he would open his mouth to reprimand these people.
Unexpectedly, someone else reached out and said, "Shi Wen, I am willing to buy a ticket."
"Your Excellency, the official price is only two cents, are you willing to pay ten cents?" Yun Xi couldn't help but be stunned and asked in confusion.
"What, the official price is only two cents?" The man looked a little confused, and then got angry, but soon disappeared, and sighed and said, "This is the price in the county."
No wonder this person is willing to accept this price, it has always been this price in the county.
Seeing that all the tickets were sold at this price, Yun Xi regretted that he should have listened to Yun Zhihe and bought the tickets.
At this time, Yun Zhihe came over, handed him a wooden sign, and said, "This is your ticket."
"I didn't buy a ticket." Yun Xi didn't understand at all why Yun Zhihe still had his own ticket in his hand.
Yun Xi took the ticket and felt ashamed. It turned out that his friend had already bought the ticket for him and only gave it to him today.
"Reciprocity is a courtesy," Yun Zhihe winked at him and said, "If you treat me to drink mint water, of course I will buy you a ticket."
Yun Wuya looked at these with a smile, and while stroking his beard, he said to Yu Moyan: "Yan'er, the Yun family and the aristocratic family are not in contact with each other in life and death. I didn't expect that they were broken today, and they actually take care of each other's business."
"This is only temporary now. Both parties have put aside their differences for the time being, but if we leave here, the isolation will still exist." Yu Moyan shook his head and sighed, "There is still a long way to go to meet the requirements of the little saint."
"It takes more than a day to freeze three feet. Can this isolation be eliminated in one day? But it is a good thing that we have taken the first step." Yun Wuya continued to stroke his beard. Although he felt a little regretful, he still said Still said comfortingly.
"This is an ice-breaking trip, which is a good thing." A voice rang in the ears of the two of them. It turned out that it was Yu Qishi who brought the master, a student from the school, to watch the Cuju competition.
Yun Wuya saw the students of Zhaojiazhuang Academy. They were not separated according to the Yun family and the Aristocratic family. Instead, they were arranged in two neat rows according to their classes.
Seeing this, his eyes couldn't help but show waves of envy.
He stepped forward and bowed, and said to Yu Qishi, Mou Ziyi, and Yun Wuwu: "I wish you all the best that the isolation between the Yun family and the aristocratic family has been eliminated."
"Congratulations, Chief, the ice-breaking trip has taken place. Today is our yesterday." Mou Ziyi said happily while returning the gift.
"There are only a few people in the school, and they are teenagers, so they are very easy to discipline." Yun Wuwu went further and said, "And Yanting Town now has tens of thousands of people, and most of them are adults, so it is ten times more difficult than the school."
Yu Qishi glanced at the people selling tickets on the roadside, frowned, and asked Yu Moyan: "If the government is not selling tickets, why are there still people selling tickets on the roadside?"
