The renovation of the Mochizuki Tower is also being carried out. It was originally a small two-story wooden building, but it was quite easy to renovate. It is nothing more than opening up the hall downstairs, so that the hall can be connected to several rooms next to it to form a larger hall. After that, there is the connection between the second floor and the first floor. The upper half of the hall has been completely removed, creating a view from above. Separate boxes are then built around a circle. The private rooms on the first floor are partitioned with screens. Several large screens are enclosed in a circle to form a small independent space.

After more than ten days of renovation, the entire Grand Theater has basically been renovated. At the front of the hall is a private room surrounded by four flower and bird screens on the left and right. Upstairs is a ring of seven premium boxes. The number of private rooms and private rooms exceeded Lin Jue's plan, reaching as many as fifteen.

In the hall downstairs, there are thirty small round tables. There are more than 200 people seated around these thirty tables. The back half is lined with rows of wooden chairs, which are the most ordinary seats. The farthest audience was only thirty paces away from the stage, and they could see the performances and singing on stage.

After everything was ready, on the afternoon of September 18, amidst the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers exploding, the Jiangnan Grand Theater began his debut performance.

Beginning in the afternoon, there was an endless stream of people who came to watch the play. When I first entered, the entire theater, including the private seats, was full, and more than 400 people entered. If it weren't for the look and security of the performance, one or two hundred could have been squeezed in, but Lin Jue told Xie Danhong that he must set a rule from the beginning not to overcrowd, so as not to cause chaos and smash the signboard instead.

The preferential price of 30 wen for ordinary seats, and the preferential price of 50 wen at the front. The downstairs seat is five taels of silver, and you can bring three or four people with your family and children, relatives and friends to sit together. The upstairs box is ten taels of silver a room, and four or five people can also sit with their families. There are many rich people in Hangzhou, and there are many people who are fresh and lively. Although there are no big people in the private seats and boxes, they are all idlers with well-to-do families, but this is enough.

Before the time comes, the big drama begins. "Du Shi Niang" performed on the night of the Oiran Contest was staged again. This time, Lin Jue made some necessary changes, and added a lot of gimmicks to the lighting effects. In the end, in order to make the people feel comfortable and not depressed, Du Siniang was arranged to appear in the form of a ghost, severely punished Sun Fu, and brought Sun Fu to the eighteenth layer of hell. even punished Li Jia, making him unscrupulous for life and marrying an unscrupulous wife. These changes greatly cater to the psychology of the audience, allowing the people to get the pleasure of revenge after experiencing the sadness of Shi Niang's throwing into the river.

For an hour, the audience was mesmerized, immersed in the atmosphere created by the plot and ingenious special effects lighting. By the end of the show, the audience was satisfied. Their faces were flushed, some of them were still stained with tears, and they walked out of the theater with the proud expression of being the first to eat crabs.

"Hey, how's that? Isn't it good-looking? The onlookers outside asked.

"Hehe, don't mention it. Damn, it's worth fifty dollars, it's really worth it. Without saying anything, I have to go home and tell my mother that she has never enjoyed it in her life. I'm going to carry her too, and I'll die without regrets watching a play. Someone watching the play replied.

“…… So exaggerated? ”

"Believe it or not, if you don't see it, you'll regret it."

These people came to see it, but they didn't get tickets. Hearing such a reputation, coupled with hearing that there was only one today, I immediately blew up the pot and clamored to go in to see it. As a last resort, Xie Yingying had to ask everyone not to remove their makeup and re-act, and then added another performance.

After that, Xie Yingying came out to apologize to the people waiting for the next game around the door, telling them that they couldn't bear it, and it was better to see if it was tomorrow. In addition, those people who have seen it follow and persuade everyone, and this can be regarded as a successful end.

In the evening, Xie Danhong happily began to count the money in the room on the second floor, and the copper coins and broken silver on the table were counted and counted, and the number was two hundred and thirty taels. At this moment, Xie Danhong breathed a long sigh of relief. All her previous worries were swept away, and today's income has far exceeded her imagination. The income of more than 200 taels of silver a day is difficult to compare with many large merchants.

And what is even happier is actually Xie Yingying, this is the first time that she has earned money in order to please her benefactor as an Oiran of the Qinglou, which naturally has a special meaning.

Lin Jue lazily leaned back on the chair and looked at the two women who were looking at each other, and his heart was quite beautiful. This plan is off to a good start, and as long as nothing goes wrong, it will be the way to get money. And this is just the beginning, if the follow-up plan can go well, this line can be described as a day to go.

"Lin Gongzi, the slave family kowtowed to you. If it weren't for Lin Gongzi to show the way, how could there be such a good thing. Xie Danhong stepped forward with a smile and saluted Lin Jue. Xie Yingying also stood up and looked at Lin Jue with a smile in her eyes.

Lin Jue smiled: "Mom was afraid that she had enough to worry about before, right?" ”

Xie Danhong said angrily: "Why are you still called the slave mother?" The slave family is good. Call sister. ”

Lin Jue rolled his eyes and said, "It's better to call it Auntie, it's messed up." ”

Xie Danhong sighed: "That's it, people are old and yellow." In other words, the slave family really didn't expect that they could earn more than 200 taels of silver a day, which is a big fortune. ”

Lin Jue smacked his lips and said: "It's a way to make money, but it also depends on whether you have the life to get rich." If this continues, I am afraid that this financial road will be broken. ”

Xie Danhong was startled and said, "What do you mean by Childe's words?" ”

Lin Jue pointed at Xie Yingying and said, "You don't want to see what the Yingying girl is tired of, hurry up and follow the plan I gave you, hurry up and recruit people to cultivate the pillars." Otherwise, everyone will die of exhaustion. Those supporting characters are tired and lying down, not to mention the warbler girl. ”

Xie Danhong said suddenly: "Yes, yes, this matter must be done quickly, otherwise it will be a real trouble." I can't wait to put on ten shows a day, but I can't bear it. ”

Lin Jue nodded with a smile and got up, looked at the sunset outside the window and said, "I have to go, it's a little hard to believe that today's premiere went well." After that, you'll need to worry a lot. In short, a new drama every month. Next month is "The Peony Pavilion", and next month is "The Story of the West Chamber", you don't have to worry about the book, I have it. I can't get involved in the day-to-day work, so I'll teach someone to send me a letter if there's anything, and we'll meet and discuss it. I'm leaving. ”

Xie Yingying got up with a light smile and said, "The slave family will send you." ”

Lin Jue waved his hand and said, "If you don't send it, you better have a good rest." I have to perform tomorrow, so I must take good care of my body. ”

Xie Yingying smiled: "Where is so expensive? I'm going to give it away. ”

Xie Danhong said with a smile on the side: "Yes, yes, no one can send it, Lin Gongzi must send it, Yingying, send Lin Gongzi well." ”

Xie Yingying smiled: "I will." ”

Lin Jue was helpless, so he had to go downstairs and go out with Xie Yingying one after the other. When passing by the hall, Lan Niang and two people were cleaning the venue, wiping the table and wiping the benches. Seeing Lin Jue coming, Lan Niang and the two women stood still and saluted. Everyone knew that this idea was Lin Jue's idea, and the women in the entire building were full of gratitude and gratitude to Lin Jue now, and they kept their respect all the time.

In order to avoid people's eyes, Xie Yingying put on a veil, approved a simple long robe, and went out of the back door with Lin Jue. The two walked slowly along the street on the banks of the West River. Under the setting sun, dozens of large ships loaded with goods in the West River are slowly heading towards Beicheng. Several large ships were pestled with large flags, and the word 'forest' was written on them. It was the Lin family's big ship.

"Cao Liang is lucky!" Xie Yingying said softly.

"Well, it started three days ago, and today is the last batch. The fleet was assembled in the canal and was to head north tonight. Lin Jue nodded.

"Your Lin family is really a big family, but it's a pity that ......"

"It's a pity that I'm a concubine, and all this has nothing to do with me, right?" Lin Jue said with a smile.

"That's not what the slave family meant. The slave family is saying that with Lin Gongzi's talent and character and knowledge, if they accept you, it will be a huge help to the Lin family. On the contrary, Lin Gongzi helped us outsiders. Xie Yingying said softly.

Lin Jue said with a smile: "This is called Daji World." The old and the old, the young and the young. It's a family in the world. ”

Xie Yingying sneered and said, "You will laugh at yourself." Lin Gongzi, the slave family often wonders if he has accumulated virtue in his previous life, so he met Gongzi. Although I was tired today, I was very happy. This is the life that the warbler wants, and she doesn't have to bear the reputation of the flower world and the name of the Oiran. The sisters were also very happy. You not only saved my life, but also saved my life. ”

Lin Jue smiled and waved his hand: "Don't say that, I'll be embarrassed." In fact, the most important thing for people is to save themselves. You're not you, and I can't help you if you were anyone. Liu Bei's son is called Adou, so many people help him, Zhuge Kongming can't help him. I can't help him. It can be seen that external forces are actually useless, and they mainly rely on themselves. ”

Xie Yingying said softly: "Thank you, your method of boasting is very useful. But after all, my life was saved by you, and I can't save myself in that kind of thing. ”

Lin Jue nodded and said, "By chance, plus you don't deserve to die, so you have today." ”

"That's fate." Xie Yingying said softly.

"What?" Lin Jue didn't hear clearly, so he asked.

"It's nothing, Yingying didn't say anything." Xie Yingying said.

"Oh, Miss Yingying should be sent here, there is no need to send it again, anyway, I will come to the academy every few days when there is a holiday. The girl plays well, let's not be an Oiran in the flower world, but if we want to be a star in the drama, we can also be famous, become a generation of legends, and be admired. ”

Xie Yingying smiled and nodded: "Childe's expectations for the slave family, how dare the slave family slack off, Childe is easy to go, Yingying will not send it." ”

Lin Jue arched his hand, turned around and strode away. Xie Yingying stretched out her white palm to support the wooden fence on the shore, looking at Lin Jue's dashing back in the sunset, looking a little obsessed. It wasn't until Lin Jue's figure merged into the flow of people and it was difficult to find a trace anymore that Xie Yingying sighed slightly, turned around and left slowly.
