"So lonely..."
The evening sun shone on Zhongjing City, and Xu Laoqi rode his old mare, strolling through the streets.
Ever since the Bada Brothel went north to Dongcang, Xu Laoqi had no place to go every evening. Although brothels in the city are still prosperous, they are different after all.
There is no longer a hook to listen to music seriously.
"To save Li Lang from home..." Xu Laoqi hummed a tune from Dongcang. Unfortunately, he couldn't go to Dongcang to listen to it in person.
It's not that Xu Laoqi can't go to Dongcang, but it's hard to get a ticket for this drama now. It is said that the queue has been waiting for three months. My boss had said before that if they wanted to see it, they would probably have to wait until the so-called "theater" training was completed.
"Hey, I'm so lonely..."
Xu Laoqi let out another long sigh. Suddenly, he saw a group of children in uniforms running into the streets.
"A newspaper seller?"
Xu Laoqi was stunned. Why did all these newsboys come out at this point?
Something big is happening!
Xu Laoqi quickly rode up to meet him.
"Excuse me! Wu Hou's new work "The Romance of the West Chamber" is now available for reservation..."
"On the top of the willow branches in the moonlight, we meet after dusk!"
"I lament that it is difficult for real men and women in the world to be close friends. I hope that all lovers in the world will eventually get married."
"A rare full-length play, now in hot reservations..."
Xu Laoqi caught up and called out to a newsboy: "Son, how do I make an appointment?"
The newsboy announced in the newspaper: "Purchase shares of Leyacheng Harbor for 10 taels per share, and for every 10,000 shares, you will receive a future premiere ticket."
As soon as the newsboy finished speaking, the expressions of many people present changed. Xu Laoqi also shook his head: "Based on this, one hundred thousand taels is a ticket, which is too expensive."
The newsboy took the reins of the old mare and said: "My lord, please don't make a mistake. It's not a hundred thousand taels to buy a ticket, it's a hundred thousand taels invested in the seaport! There is a profit share! The premiere ticket is free! "
"I gave you this newspaper. It has detailed instructions."
As he said that, the newsboy put the newspaper into Xu Laoqi's hand. At this time, another newsboy came over and explained: "Sir, my brother didn't explain clearly. The Marquis also said that if he could invite the other three people to buy , you can get a free premiere ticket.”
"Your Excellency is an old man from Zhongjing. He should know many dignitaries. It shouldn't be difficult to find three at random..."
Xu Laoqi heard this: Is this still possible?
He hurriedly flipped through the newspaper and found this rule in a conspicuous place, with a smile on his face.
"Hahaha... That'll be easy to handle! I'm going to lobby some young ladies from wealthy families..."
After saying that, Xu Laoqi pulled the reins of his horse and headed towards the way where the noble people lived, leaving only a series of hoofbeats behind.
"Da da da, da da da..."
…
"Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo, was that, was that pretty girl crying at home, she was so sad. The old father sat aside, looking at the apple of his eye, but hesitated to speak.
"Daddy doesn't love me anymore. I just want to watch a show. I just want to watch a show!"
The old father sighed: "Daughter, didn't dad tell you? It's not that we are reluctant to part with these one hundred thousand taels of silver, it's because there is a dispute between the river and the sea behind it, and it's best for our family not to get caught up in it."
"But Feng'er, Yu'er and Mi Li'er all have tickets, but I don't. They have all seen it in the future, but I haven't..." The young lady said sadly with red and swollen eyes.
The old father was stunned: "Are you saying that the Wang family, the Liu family, and the Zhou family all bought those seaport shares?"
The young lady nodded: "Their maid told Die'er that they would go to Dongcang with their young lady. But I am the one who is pitiful, and my little maid also feels wronged."
The old father frowned, and a voice like a bell sounded: "Who made my little Pearl cry? I'm going to teach you a lesson!"
When the old father saw the person coming, he quickly stood up, saluted, and shouted: "Dad!"
"Grandpa!" The young lady cried even more miserably when she saw her backer, and threw herself into the old man's arms.
"Dad, this is what happened..." The head of the family told the old man everything. The old man raised his beard, stared at his son, and said, "Confused! This has something to do with the dispute between the river and the sea. What does it have to do with it! Our daughter wants to go to the theater, so we can just pay some money!"
"Our family doesn't know about the dispute between the river and the sea! Our family just loves our daughter! Do you understand?"
The head of the family seemed to understand something: "Dad, what you mean is that we support Wu Hou, but the public statement is that Nannan wants to watch the show..."
"Fart!" the old man cursed angrily, "Can you say that? We just love our daughter!"
"I understand, I understand! Let's do this. I'll prepare two hundred thousand taels and get one for her mother. No, three hundred thousand taels. Girl, aren't those maids and maids going to Dongcang with you? Daddy will give you one. Earn some face, our family, you can come in with Die'er to watch!"
The young lady stopped crying. Although her father and grandfather seemed to have other considerations, her goal was achieved.
"Thank you grandpa, thank you daddy..."
…
"The sky is blue, the ground is yellow, the west wind is strong, the northern swallows are flying south!"
"Whoever comes in the morning and is drunk in the forest will shed tears of separation!"
In the elegant room at the head of Zheliu Academy, Kong Tianfang recited this little order repeatedly and sighed: "Chen Luo's poems and articles are becoming more and more readily available to him. These lines may seem careless, but they describe a whole story with just a few words. A scene of farewell.”
"Especially the words "Shuang Lin Zui" are so apt and echo the Li Ren's tears at the back...Haiyi, why are you laughing?"
Tian Haiyi came back to his senses and laughed: "I couldn't help but feel excited when I thought of the sentence 'Moonlight above the willow branches, people meet after dusk'!"
"I also read the libretto of "The Female Consort" before. Although the melody is catchy, it is slightly less literary. This time, "The Romance of the West Chamber" seems to be a drama with outstanding literary talent. Head of the hospital, my Tian family plans to buy Do you want to prepare tickets for you?"
Kong Tianfang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "There are people in your Tian family, don't there be people in my Kong family?"
Tian Haiyi looked a little weird: "Are the Kong family going to end too?"
Kong Tianfang looked confused: "What's the end? What's the end? We're just going to the theater!"
"Hey, Chen Luo is not a son of a man, and a ticket for a play that doesn't even exist in the script is so expensive! It's a shame for a scholar!"
Tian Haiyi also smiled and said: "Exactly, the shame of a scholar!"
…
Le Yacheng.
Xiang Jixuan held the long list in his hand and looked at Chen Luo, who was sitting on the stone pier eating fruit, and felt a little ashamed: "Master Hou, do you need to read all of these?"
"necessary!"
"Does it have to be tongue-tied?"
"The trumpet depends on you!"
Xiang Jixuan sighed, his whole body filled with great righteousness, he held the list and his tongue burst into laughter.
"Thank you to Wuzhou Taicheng Mujia for becoming a shareholder of Leya Harbor!"
"Thank you to the Tian family in Qing'an City, Luozhou for becoming a shareholder of Leya Seaport!"
"Thank you to the Zhongjing Su family for becoming a shareholder of Leya Harbor!"
"Thank you to the Huang family of Dong'an City, Yuezhou, for becoming a shareholder of Leya Seaport!"
“Thank you to the Qingzhou Kong family for becoming a shareholder of Leya Seaport!”
…
"Bang!" He Ziye slammed the tea cup in his hand, but it did not block the tongue-splitting spring thunder outside.
"Where's the King's Fa! Is there still a King's Fa!" He Buwei cursed, "Is he going to let the whole city speak out like this!"
The family heads sitting below shook their heads slightly: "Brother He, Princess Pingyang said she wanted to concentrate on worshiping and no longer accepts any news from the outside world. Even the entire Yanqiu has been blocked by the formation."
"Yes, the official seals in our hands are also blocked and we cannot use official skills! Otherwise, how could we allow them to be so arrogant!"
At this time, Lu Changle suddenly said softly: "Everyone, the one just reported is already the sixty-third one!"
"I seem to hear that the Canal family is also among them!"
"Wuhou, you are trying to steal the momentum from us!"
As soon as Lu Changle finished speaking, the entire main hall was shocked.
"Sixty-three families? So soon?"
"I seem to have heard about the Kong family and the Meng family!"
"Brother He, come up with an idea!"
He Buyi was about to speak, but suddenly the housekeeper rushed in.
"Master, master...it's not good!"
He frowned and said, "Why are you so flustered? What happened?"
The butler handed over a draft: "Sir, look at it!"
He just glanced at the draft report of the result, and his expression suddenly changed.
Lu Changle came over, took the newspaper, glanced at it, and frowned.
"Brother Lu, what's going on?" A family head asked quickly.
Lu Changle sighed: "Marquis Wu announced the third batch of share raising, targeting everyone in Leyacheng!"
"We promise that anyone who purchases Haigang shares will enjoy all the benefits of Dongcang people in Dongcang, and will also be rewarded with points contributed by Dongcang City."
Shi En said angrily: "So what, there are three of us watching, let me see who dares to buy it!"
Lu Changle shook his head slightly: "Brother Shi, don't you understand yet? Why did Marquis Wu first overwhelm my Yunhe family with the power of the world's powerful families? It's just to make the people of Leya doubt our alliance and take away our time."
"Now, we are afraid that we will not be able to suppress the people below."
"Chen Luo, at such a young age, he has already played with his heart."
"How dare they!" Shi En glared, "Aren't you afraid of our revenge?"
Lu Changle shook his head: "How to retaliate? The newspaper said that the fundraising for Leyacheng is completely confidential!"
As he said that, Lu Changle glanced at everyone present: "I, Lu Changle, don't have a villain's heart. I think that after the meeting is over, some of us will secretly contact Mr. Wuhou!"
Everyone quickly waved their hands to deny it, but looked at each other with doubt in their eyes.
"Brother He, we can't wait any longer." Lu Changle looked at He Buwei again, "It's time for us to take action."
"Even if it's a shock!"
He didn't hesitate for a long time, seemed to have made some decision, and nodded.
"At midnight tonight, action!"
When everyone heard what He Bu said, everyone looked solemn and nodded slightly.
…
A small paper crane fluttered and landed in front of Chen Luo.
Chen Luo took the paper crane, and a deep voice came from the paper crane: "At midnight today, the sea monster is coming!"
After the sound transmission was completed, the little paper crane turned into a ball of flame and then disappeared.
Chen Luo raised his eyebrows: "I can't bear my temper. I thought I would have to wait for two more days."
"After all, not many people contact me secretly!"
Chen Luo's second step: destroy the land and build harmony!
At this time, a figure appeared behind Chen Luo, it was Wu Litao.
"Yao... Yao'er, everyone... everyone is... here..."
A bright smile appeared on Chen Luo's face: "The moon is dark and the wind is high, it's a murderous night!"
