Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading Chapter 238: A good show begins
Xue Liangcai walked out of the political affairs hall angrily, looking very bad.
Because he was optimistic about the land where the house was built, the City Lord's Mansion was not for sale.
In the end, he pushed the price to the limit he could bear, which had already exceeded twice the price of the surrounding land. The City Lord's Mansion's reply was still not to sell!
If I ask more carefully, it turns out that the city owner personally encircled the land and what kind of theater is to be built.
Just kidding, he, Xue Liangcai, is also a well-informed master. He is seventy-two years old today.
It's clearly just an excuse for the political affairs hall to perfunctory itself.
It's a pity.
His Xue family has been in business for generations and naturally has a keen judgment on the layout of the city. In his opinion, if Dongcang City is to flourish in the future, that piece of land must be a place of wealth.
So Xue Liangcai planned to use this place as the foundation of his Xue family's foothold, but he was rejected again and again.
……
Returning to the rented courtyard, the three and a half boys who were running and playing in the courtyard saw Xue Liangcai, and quickly stopped, and respectfully said, "I have seen the eldest father."
Seeing his three grandchildren, Xue Liangcai's expression softened.
Although his Xue family is not a wealthy family, it is also a family of nobles in a small town in Lanzhou. All are husband and wife.
But I don't know if his brothers have overdrawn the talents of their descendants. He has two sons, and his brother has three sons, all of whom are not gifted with reading through.
They pin their hopes on the next generation, but they are disappointed that in the grandchildren generation, none of the five grandchildren have the talent for reading through, and the three granddaughters have the talent for reading through. It seems that the talent is limited, and the Confucian scholar who has become a poet is probably the ultimate.
It was not until a few months ago that several of my sons and nephews set foot on the martial arts by reading the book of Wuhou. After a wait and see, Xue Liang and his elder brother Xue Lianghua finally decided to separate their families!
Similar to the choice of many families, Xue Lianghua stayed in his ancestral land and continued to teach his three granddaughters who had the talent for reading through, while Xue Liangcai took his son and nephew who had already understood martial arts, and even took the grandson who did not have the talent for reading through to the East. Cang.
Leaving his hometown and traveling thousands of miles all the way, when he came to Dongcang City, he could only live in a courtyard house that made him look a little crude. He finally chose a place to start a family, but was rejected, Xue Liangcai was naturally in his heart. depressed.
My heart softened a little when I saw the three boys with heads and heads.
If it wasn't for them, he would be a master anyway, so why bother to come and eat this man's pain of leaving his hometown.
It's all for the kids.
Xue Liangcai reached out and touched the youngest boy's head, and said, "Ner, where are your father and your uncles?"
This is the son of his youngest son, called Xue Ne, who is most loved by Xue Liangcai. Xue Ne said respectfully, "Father back, my father and several uncles have gone to apply for the city guard camp. The two elder brothers were still out on assignments and did not return home."
Xue Liangcai nodded: "Wutang will start school in two days, and the eldest father has already registered for you all. At that time, you must practice martial arts with heart, and don't be greedy."
The three little guys saluted together: "Follow the teachings of the eldest father."
After the salute, Xue Ne stuck out her tongue again and said, "Father, there is nothing fun in this place. I miss my second sister and the others."
Xue Liangcai smiled softly. The second sister Xue Ne said was his eldest son's daughter and granddaughter who stayed in his ancestral home to study. This little granddaughter is ingenious and used to making desserts and delicacies. Xue Ne said that she was thinking of his second sister, but she was actually greedy.
At this moment, a police officer from the government affairs hall entered the compound. Seeing that Xue Liangcai was chatting with his little grandsons, he quickly cupped his hands: "I have seen Master Xue."
Xue Liangcai replied with a salute: "Is there something wrong with the wise man?"
The other party put a page of paper on the ground and said: "The City Lord's Mansion will have a show of "The Concubine" at noon today. Our piece is the first to be watched. Master Xue can go with his family."
Xue Liangcai took the paper in confusion and asked, "Starting the show? What does this mean? What is "The Concubine"? Does this concubine have a daughter?"
The policeman shrugged his shoulders: "I don't know about the next one. The words were passed down from above. Let me explain it later. I have to go to the next house and say goodbye."
After speaking, the police turned and left.
Xue Liangcai looked down at the piece of paper, which looked like a draft newspaper, with a few large characters prominently written on it—
"Break up the world! Wuhou opens up drama style again!"
"In a square inch, the world is as big as the sky!"
"When I sigh, I feel the time is long!"
"The premiere of "The Concubine", I wonder why the concubine is a daughter!"
"Please take a look!"
Xue Liangcai felt that the whole person was shocked. He had never seen such words before.
After waiting for a long time, I saw the address at the bottom, which was actually the piece of land he was interested in.
"A square inch plays the world, sighing and feeling the years. Such a great spirit."
"Is this the reason why the old man can't apply for the land?"
"The old man would like to see what Wuhou did with that land!"
……
Looking at the completed theater in front of him, Chen Luo nodded slightly.
Luo Hongnu is worthy of being a musical genius. He just said a few words casually. Luo Hongnu not only quickly found a suitable person among the people of Dongcangcheng, but also rehearsed the entire stage performance.
According to Chen Luo's approval, the performance can be officially performed.
On the contrary, the theater couldn't make it so cumbersome because of the urgency of time. Basically, a hall was built, a large stage was set up, and some audience seats were set up in a staircase shape. It's a bit similar to the lecture hall of the previous life.
When watching a play, there is always a sense of atmosphere.
In the beginning, Chen Luo wanted to make it as open-ended as a big country stage. Anyway, his purpose was not to collect tickets, but he found that it was difficult to make the audience meditate. After all, it was a mess. Can't hear.
Besides, since it's out, it should be formalized as a feature of Dongcang City. Other forms will be added later.
So he specifically gave Qin Master an order to build this theater as soon as possible at all costs. From the current point of view, although it is far from what he imagined, there is still a prototype that can be started. As for the details, I will slowly make up for it later.
Looking at the time, there are still two hours before the official opening. Chen Luo walked out of the "theater" and planned to see Luo Hongnu's preparations.
……
At this moment, the news of "The Concubine" has spread in Dongcang City.
"Brother, tell me, can this concubine still be a woman?"
"Why not? Are there other girls going to the brothel? Let me tell you, this girl... hmmm, why are you covering my mouth!"
"The dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! Don't talk about those things that can't be on the table. This is an article by the city owner, our Wuhou, how can we write those things!"
"Everyone, stop arguing, I heard this is still singing!"
"A song? The one in the tick column?"
"Bah, pah, you say that again and I'll kill you. Didn't you see that Miss Luo sang it herself?"
"Miss Luo! That's an ordinary figure in the sky. I heard that Miss Luo has a lot of money in Zhongjing. She can sing songs for those of us who are suffering?"
"Didn't you read that notice? You can go in and listen if you have contribution points in the future, no matter who you are. You have to take turns now!"
"Bastard, we have drawn this piece three days later, and the No. 6 area in the east of the city is the first batch!"
"Hey, wait..."
……
"Is this "The Concubine" a new song by Wan Anbo?"
"It's just a song, why is it so inspiring!"
"Yes, yes, is it to make Miss Luo famous?"
"Miss Luo has already become famous all over the world with a Prime Minister Si Ling, so why bother?"
"Everyone, I heard that this song is not sung by one person, but by many people. I am afraid it is not the kind of song we are familiar with!"
"Yes, look at this announcement. It also said that it is a text by Wuhou Xinkai."
"It doesn't matter, anyway, I'll be able to watch it tomorrow, when it will be clear at a glance."
"Hey, there are still sixteen hours and three quarters before the viewing tomorrow!"
……
"Li's sister, you are also going there...what courtyard...to listen to music?"
"It's the theater, and, as the police said, it's to go to the theater, not to listen to music."
"Yeah, I'm just wondering, aren't all the gents listening to this song? Why did someone say that we should all go there."
"It doesn't matter, my man participated in the construction of the theater, saying that the men and women were sitting separately, and there would be nothing wrong, otherwise my man was so careful, he would take me with him when he went to the north, and he was willing to Let me sit with a group of big guys and watch some play!"
"I don't care about any drama, as long as it is written by the Lord of the City, I will go."
"Two sisters, are you also going to the theater? Why don't you go together?"
"Just right, come and come, let's go together."
……
Daxuan Li Zhenghe forty-six years, winter.
November eighth, noon.
East Cang City.
People from all directions poured into a strange building, holding number plates in their hands, and found the corresponding seats to sit down.
They looked strangely ahead, and a huge curtain blocked their view, as if dividing the entire hall into two parts, front and rear.
It didn't take long, and the hall was basically full of people, but everyone was instructed not to speak loudly when they entered the venue, so the sound of whispers buzzed.
At this moment, Chen Luo took Yun Siyao into the theater, and the scene suddenly fell silent.
Only the old Dongcang had the privilege of seeing Yun Siyao. Now these newcomers to Dongcang suddenly see Yun Siyao, and their hearts are moved.
I thought that Miss Luo was already a figure in the sky, but I didn't expect such a fairy beside the city lord.
As expected of the City Lord!
"Cough, cough!" Yun Siying received the gaze that fell on him~IndoMTL.com~ was a little unnatural, and after coughing twice, Chen Luo hurriedly took Yun Siyao to the front row.
Chen Luo nodded at everyone and said, "The construction of Dongcang City is hard work, everyone."
"Today I am Chen Luo, please watch the play!"
"Go!"
Chen Luo's voice fell, and the curtain that covered the stage slowly opened.
On the stage, a beautiful figure in an embroidered building's dress turned her back to the crowd.
The musicians on both sides of the stage played music, and the figure slowly turned back, it was Luo Hongnu.
She seemed to be looking into the distance, stepping to the beat of the music, walking to the front of the stage and singing softly——
"The spring breeze brings warmth to Xiangyang, and sitting alone at the west window is even more desolate..."
The first scene, "Embroidery Building".
"The Concubine", a good show begins!
