Originally, Lu Chen didn't pay much attention to the fat man's figure, but when the fat man showed his belly, Lu Chen's eyes were directly attracted to the fat man's figure. This fat man was half a head shorter than Lu Chen, and he was probably around 1.7 meters tall. , but the two balls of this figure are stacked together. Even with this figure, a person weighing 230 or 40 pounds cannot be justified.
His belly was swollen, and he was swaying up and down. He looked down and couldn't see his toes. He had a bun on his round head, but you can wear one of the right size. No, his bun is smaller than his head. No. 1, the futou at this time has not yet reached that of the late Tang Dynasty. There are larger cap leaves at the back. The image of the futou at this time is like a narrow trapezoid with a wide bottom.
A bun that is one size smaller than the head is fastened on the head, and the entire front bangs are pulled down to cover the forehead of the big bun face. A pair of small eyes blink, which makes him look a bit shrewd.
"Qian Junnan, haven't you asked me how to address you two brothers?" The little fat man stretched out his two chubby hands and reluctantly asked Lu Chen and Li Daozong. Only then did Lu Chen see this guy's hands. Good guy, this hand is fat, with ten fingers like ten small mallets.
"Qian Junnan? Handsome man?" After hearing the little fat man's self-registered number, Li Daozong and Lu Chen looked at each other and couldn't help but laughed a few times, mainly because the little fat man's dress was enough. , plus a self-registration number, they really couldn't bear it anymore.
"Is there anything wrong with my name?" Qian Junnan didn't have any displeasure on his face. After all, every time he registered someone's self-number, others would laugh a few times. The little fat man was used to it. , but there is a somewhat lonely look in his eyes.
"There's nothing wrong with it!" Lu Chen immediately noticed the little fat man's eyes and hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Lu Chen, this is..." Lu Chen didn't know how to introduce Li Daozong, so he reported to himself After entering the house, he turned to look at Li Daozong.
"This is Li Chengfan!" Li Daozong said directly.
"It turns out it's Brother Lu and Brother Li!" Qian Junnan, the little fat man, said, cupping his hands towards Li Daozong and Lu Chen again.
"Brother Qian, you all know what this means, but you haven't told us yet!" Lu Chen reminded Qian Junnan.
"Oh! This is what everyone calls the top Nanqu here. Today, it is said that Luodu Zhi is opening its doors to welcome guests. In fact, it is organizing a cocktail party. The people who can enter are those with both talent and learning. This Pingkangfang There are two Douzhi in total, one is Luo Lifu Luo Douzhi who opened the door to welcome guests today, and the other is Shui Miaoyin Shui Douzhi..." Qian Junnan introduced to Lu Chen and Li Daozong eloquently. , until Qian Junnan finished speaking, the two of them nodded as if they understood. At this time, both of them had secret thoughts in their hearts. They didn't expect that there are so many ways in Pingkangfang!
In Lu Chen's opinion, this "all known" is similar to the host of later generations, and obviously it is not that easy to be a "all known" in this era. It has to be recommended by everyone. As a "all known", in addition to appearance and behavior In addition to being able to hold the line, you must also be good at maneuvering and maneuvering. Not only must you create the atmosphere of the entire venue, but you must also take care of everything to make everyone present happy. In terms of personal qualities, you must be able to speak and sing, be good at poems and write, Only when one is knowledgeable about the past and understands the present can one be considered comprehensive.
Good guy, with such ability and appearance, can he be regarded as a potential Internet celebrity in future generations?
"Brother Qian, have you ever been in there?" Seeing that Qian Junnan's words were clear and logical, Lu Chen asked curiously.
"I was taken in once!" Qian Junnan said proudly.
"Can we still bring people in?" Lu Chen looked at Qian Junnan in surprise again. If he could bring people in, what's the use of setting up questions?
"Of course it's possible! Of course, there is a limit on the number of people. Those who answer the questions correctly can only bring two people in! After all, some people come with their friends, so you can't leave your friends behind! This kind of thing that destroys other people's friendships is not allowed. I don't even bother to do it!" Qian Junnan explained again, because he got a spot last time and sneaked in.
"That's it!" Lu Chen nodded. In fact, Lu Chen also understood that this kind of setting for bringing people in can be said to be quite thoughtful. After all, your friend didn't answer the question. If you did, you brought your friend in to participate. This cocktail party or something like that, doesn't it seem to be a very honorable thing? You know, literati have the best reputation. No matter whether they are dirty or messy in private, they must be neat and tidy on the outside anyway.
"I wonder what questions will come up today?" Lu Chen touched his chin and pondered as he looked at the servant standing at the door of the house.
The people around were talking a lot at this time, but there was a strange empty circle around Lu Chen and Li Daozong. After all, the two guards behind them were so different, how could they be fully armed? The guards came to visit the brothel, and the two guards were holding the hilts of knives at their waists, and looked like they would not let strangers approach them. As a result, there was no one around Li Daozong and Lu Chen except Qian Junnan, whose arm was taken away by Lu Chen. A small circle of vacuum zone was formed directly.
"Do you have any friends coming with you this time?" Lu Chen thought it was interesting to talk to this little fat man, so he turned to ask Qian Junnan.
"No! This time my friend went to Luoyang for business and did not come to Chang'an!" Qian Junnan shook his head and said.
"Then are you sure you can answer the question correctly?" Lu Chen continued to ask.
"I know how much ink I have in my stomach. It's okay for me to do business or something like that. I don't know anything about reciting poetry or composing. I'm just here to watch the excitement. When the excitement is over, I'm going to find a shop. Just take a nap!" Qian Junnan replied knowingly.
"Oh? Are you a businessman? What kind of business do you do?" Lu Chen heard that this little fat man was actually a businessman. Those who do business can come to Pingkangfang for recreation. They must be wealthy. After all, in this era The tax on merchants is very heavy, and if merchants want to gain a foothold in society, they must rely on scholars. Businessmen in this era have very low self-esteem. To meet such a cheerful little fat man, Lu Chen is Quite unexpected.
"To be honest, brother, I'm in the pawn business!" Qian Junnan replied.
"It's true that people can't be judged by their appearance!" Lu Chen said directly in his heart. Even though this little fat guy's dress is a bit funny, he can actually do the pawn business. This is an incredible talent. To be a pawn, you not only need wealth, but also You have connections and eyesight, otherwise your pawn shop will be in trouble if you receive some junk.
Just when Lu Chen was about to say something, he saw two girls dressed as maids walking out of the house, one of them holding a red scroll in his hand.
"There's a question coming!" Seeing the two maids coming out, Qian Junnan reminded Lu Chen, then stopped talking and looked towards the door of the house. At this time, the crowd that was still a little noisy suddenly became quieter. The rest were whispering and guessing what today's topic would be.
I saw another maid with empty hands pulling one side of the scroll. The two maids slowly opened the upright scroll. There was a word written on the three-foot-long scroll, "Bamboo".
"What does this mean?" Li Daozong glanced at the words on the scroll and asked Lu Chendao directly.
"I guess I'm going to write something with this as the title?" Lu Chen guessed.
"This is today's topic. Please compose poems, poems or couplets on this topic. Today there are great scholars included, and I will judge your qualifications for the seat!" The two maids showed the title in the scroll. Later, the servant just now announced loudly again.
"The title is Bamboo!" Lu Chen looked at the word "Bamboo" on the scroll. The word "Bamboo" was written very gracefully. It was obviously written by a woman, but there was a hint of stubbornness in the gracefulness. He had to He said that although the calligraphy of the woman who wrote this character cannot be called everyone, she can still be regarded as having first-rate good calligraphy.
Lu Chen quietly reached into his arms and pressed the base icon on his phone. Lu Chen instantly entered the base. For books such as "Three Hundred Tang Poems" and "Three Hundred Selected Song Ci Poems", Lu Chen But I specially selected a lot of them just in case of emergencies. I didn't expect to encounter them today.
Seeing that Lu Chen suddenly stopped moving next to him, Li Daozong didn't pay too much attention. In Li Daozong's opinion, Lu Chen was probably thinking about poems about "bamboo", so he didn't bother Lu Chen. If Li Daozong was ordinary at this time, If you push Lu Chen, you will find that Lu Chen will immediately "fall to the zombies". After Li Daozong saw Lu Chen's appearance, he also fell into deep thinking. Li Daozong's literary skills are not shallow, let alone such a It was an interesting thing, and Li Daozong naturally wanted to try it too!
Lu Chen flipped through the pages very quickly. After finding a few songs, he came out of the base directly. He opened his eyes and looked at Li Daozong. Li Daozong looked like he was thinking hard. He was obviously thinking about how to solve the problem. Lu Chen also Instead of disturbing him, he turned around and looked around, only to find that someone was already walking towards the servant.
It was a pity that these people waited for a while after reading their own poems. Someone inside should have passed their poems to the house. In the end, only one person passed, and the others were directly persuaded to leave.
"Brother Lu, have you thought of it?" Just as Lu Chen was looking around, Li Daozong looked at Lu Chen and asked.
"Brother Li, have you thought of it?" Lu Chen did not answer Li Daozong, but asked Li Daozong.
"Thinking of a song, I... I'm going to give it a try!" Li Daozong originally wanted to call himself "I am the king", but after thinking about it, he immediately changed his mind and said "I'm here".
"I'm here to wish Brother Li a successful start! If Brother Li can pass, then I have to take advantage of Brother Li to go in and have a look!" Lu Chen directly joked with Li Daozong with a smile.
