Chapter Eighteen: Playing "Zhan Huaxiong"
Then, Luo Ning also called twelve taels of silver and bought a strong pack horse and a brand new carriage.
I spent another seven taels to buy the troupe's outfit, props, and musical instruments.
It took more than twenty taels in just one evening!
Only half of the fifty taels of silver left by Cai Ji.
It’s really like spending money, and it’s hard to go out every day.
The Luo family has booked a small yard, which is also quiet.
"Master." After dinner, the two little actors obediently pressed Luo Ning's shoulders and whispered to the master.
Luo Ning corrected it several times, but the two little guys were still called master, so he had to admit it.
The boy is called Fuguaner and the girl is called Xiguaner. They are only seven years old, but they have been in the industry for two years.
Because of his handsome and smart appearance, he was selected by the previous headmaster Zhao to join the opera troupe and signed a contract for sale, intending to teach Miaozi.
The black-hearted headmaster Zhao is indeed an expert in his eyes. The two children he selected actually have excellent spiritual roots.
To put it bluntly, it is the food that the ancestors admire, and they are born to be actors.
Five actors came in together, and the leading tall and thin young man Alu said first:
"Master, the owner just asked the villain if the Luo family class will perform tomorrow. If it is a performance, we recommend that we go to the Zhou Mansion to perform a birthday show. However, he will get a 10% introduction fee."
Why not call Luo Ning the headmaster?
Because they called Master Zhao the head teacher before, Master Zhao abandoned them at a critical moment and almost killed them.
If they call Luo Ning the headmaster again, they feel disrespectful to Luo Ning, so they simply call the master.
Luo Ning shook his head: "No. Alu, remember, our Luo family class likes big scenes with a large crowd, and the private meetings of the rich will not be accepted!"
Why did he take the Luo family to tour the world?
Wish you!
Only with the power of will can he be strong and protect his sister from being bullied and slaughtered.
So the more audience the better, the bigger the scene, the better.
Private halls are not suitable for earning their will, but are easily attracted by the attention of some people.
"Also, don't call me the master or call myself a villain, I feel like you are my slaves."
Luo Ning said.
"Yes, lord...master." Alu was also clever, and almost turned into a male character.
Su Xian smiled and said, "The title of lord is very good."
Luo Ning did not correct it again, "Of course, there are superiors and inferiors in the Luo family, but there are no slaves. You guys are all acting materials. You can be a well-known man before you can perform."
Alu said: "Don't worry, lord, Zhou Cang's character lines, little... I've been thinking about it."
After saying that, he bowed and turned around and went out to take on work.
Li Dingguo nodded and said, "Brother has bought a few good supporting roles. With time, the supporting roles can be played."
Luo Ning also felt that he was lucky and could use all seven people.
The three brothers talked for a while, and Alu came in again to report: "Lord, I just got the news that three innocent courtiers died in Lanxiangyuan within half a month, and it is said that they offended the Orchid Empress."
"In order to apologize to the Orchid Empress, Lanxiangyuan will perform several entertainment shows at the door tomorrow night. A five taels of silver has already been taken over by the opera troupe."
The Orchid Queen is said to be the patron saint of brothel women. Now, the Orchid Shrine in Fireworks and Willow Alley worships this mysterious and treacherous Orchid Queen.
"Entertainment drama... in public..." Luo Ning thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Let's take a show, the name of the drama is "Zheng Huaxiong"."
When Su Xian heard this, he thought about it. Killing Hua Xiong, he must have played the role of the Martial Saint Guan Yu.
But Guan Sheng was a famous general at the end of the Han Dynasty more than ten thousand years ago, and he was extremely old. He was not without his acting, but it was very rare.
What is the deep meaning of my elder brother playing Guan Sheng from ancient times?
"Yes, I'm going to report the show now. If I'm late, I'm afraid I won't be able to get the business." After receiving the order, Alu hurried to Lanxiangyuan.
Not long after, Alu came back with a look of joy and reported that Lanxiangyuan had already taken on this new drama that he had never heard of.
However, Baoyin dropped from five liang to four liang.
...
The next night, the street in front of Lanxiang Courtyard was brightly lit, as bright as daytime.
There are crowds of people around the temporary stage.
Most of the people in the town are here.
The first person to go on stage was the Wang family, who performed the role of "Suppressing the Bandits". The Wang family was crowded with people and the performance was very lively, and the audience was very excited to watch it.
But before "Suppressing the Bandits" ended, when he first started acting in a martial arts drama attacking the parable, he heard a shocking sound of gongs and drums.
Immediately afterwards, someone shouted: "Not good! The bandits are about to enter the town!"
"So many horses! I'm afraid there are one or two hundred riders!"
The huge panic suddenly became like a dark cloud.
With a "boom", the crowd suddenly exploded.
