Chapter 503 A piece of good news

Now that everyone is here, at Lillian's suggestion, everyone including Lili unanimously approved it, let the troupe members try out the steam room and sauna in the accommodation area first.
It’s perfect for sauna in winter!
After class, Old John heard that the theater next door had newly launched steam steaming and sauna staff services. He immediately rushed to the theater to enjoy the joy of steaming with Jiang Qi and Huang Fugui.
As for Kua Kua, he has exclusive access to the men's sauna.
The temperature of the sauna is too high, and ordinary people dare not enter it without professionals present.
Wang Xinghua discovered in the group that everyone had experienced the steam room and sauna in advance:???
Wuwuwuwu, I am obviously the manager of the theater, why...
Wang Xinghua was so sad that she ate two more steamed buns.
The troupe's tour was still going on, and Wang Xinghua took the lead on the high-speed train to evade fares and return.
She said she was the first, but in fact Wang Xinghua only came back a few days earlier than the other members of the troupe. The current stop of the tour is the last stop of the troupe's tour. After the performance, everyone will go home to celebrate the New Year.
.
Yes, the Chinese New Year is already here.
Before you know it, it’s New Year again.
.
Jiang Qi stood at the entrance of the train station, queuing up to buy her mother-in-law's sesame cakes.
It’s not good to pick people up at the train station during the Spring Festival travel rush. The flow of people is too high and the competition for buying sesame seed cakes is too fierce.
At this time, you have to queue for everything, including buses and taxis. What’s not waiting in line? Why not wait in line to buy sesame seeds first so that you can eat something to fill your stomach while queuing for buses and taxis.
"2 yuan each, mother-in-law, the price of these sesame cakes has increased!" Jiang Qi, who hadn't bought sesame cakes for a long time, looked at the price list and said with a hint of ridicule, "During the Spring Festival, the price increases by 100%. Mother-in-law, you know the Spring Festival."
The mother-in-law who sells sesame cakes has long forgotten Jiang Qi. Jiang Qi often came here to make sesame cakes, soup dumplings, and a new pot of sesame cakes before the amusement park opened.
However, this did not prevent my mother-in-law from chatting with Jiang Qi, because the eldest brother in front of Jiang Qi happened to wrap up the remaining sesame cakes, and Jiang Qi had to wait for a new batch.
"There are a lot of tourists these days, and many of them are from out of town. Before, sesame cakes were sold for one yuan each, and the queues were so long that I was exhausted." The mother-in-law was complaining, but her expression was smiling, "Especially last week.
, there were so many people there one day, I thought I had remembered the date wrongly and it would be Chinese New Year in two days."
"Last week?" Jiang Qi was stunned, and after counting, he realized that his mother-in-law was probably talking about January 22nd.
"Is it the 22nd?"
The mother-in-law squinted her eyes and looked down at the pancakes that had not yet come out of the pan: "I don't remember."
"It's the 22nd!" the young girl behind Jiang Qi said firmly, "I picked up a friend at the train station that day, and there were so many people! It was so dense and crowded that I almost couldn't find my friend."
"Maybe it's because of the open day of the Incredible Magic Academy." Jiang Qi said.
The girl looked surprised: "You know that, handsome guy? Have you been there? My friend made a special trip here to attend the opening day. Let me tell you, the incredible magic academy in the amusement park is really super fun! The queues are very interesting.
!”
"In the guide in the little book, the crystal ball divination class is recommended with ten stars, and the fire magic class and wood magic class are recommended with five stars. My friend especially believes in that guide and insists on the fire magic class."
"The two of us queued for four hours just to enter the school just by queuing on the official account. After walking around the school for half an hour, the time came and we had to go to the corridor in front of the classroom to wait in line for class."
"I have never been in such an interesting queue in my life. That animal head in the corridor... eh, I don't remember what it was. I kept cursing. He said that the principal was wrong and held an open day. The school was full of people.
, it was so noisy that its head hurt.”
"They also said that there is also a problem with the theme of the auditorium. Why is the theme of the auditorium on the open day "Song of the Prairie", which in vain takes advantage of that stupid deer head in the auditorium. They are tortured in the corridor, and that stupid deer head is enjoying the grassland in the auditorium.
The scenery, but there are so many people blocking it from looking in the mirror, there is no way to argue with the deer head video."
"That guy was very good at cursing. He kept scolding people without saying the same thing. We almost died laughing when we were waiting in line."
As soon as the girl got excited, she started selling Amway on her own, laughing as she talked, obviously she liked it very much.
Jiang Qi asked curiously: "How many classes have you taken?"
"In the first class, my friend and I were assigned to the fire magic class. You don't know, there were so many people that day. The amusement park was full of people, and all the projects were lined up. The goblin cafeteria on the third floor of the school
All the set meals are sold out.”
"Furthermore, the amusement park stipulates that courses in the school on the opening day must be queued online, and you cannot queue for many courses at once. If you don't have a smartphone, you can ask the staff to get a number with your ticket and send a text message to notify me. My friend and I were able to queue for Fire Magic
The class is already very good, but I saw someone complaining on the Internet that they couldn’t get into any class, and in the end they had to take Teacher John’s dwarf architecture course. Can you believe that even the dwarf architecture course took more than two hours?”
"In the end, I didn't experience anything. I fell asleep after listening for a few minutes. When I woke up, Teacher John was gone and he was woken up by the staff. Do you think it was unlucky? It was really funny. There were two people in line.
I went to school to sleep when I was young, hahahahahaha.”
Jiang Qi:……
In fact, Jiang Qi has heard many versions of this matter.
Because the dwarven architecture class on the school’s open day on the 23rd is indeed a unique scenery in the Magic Academy.
Old John has a skill called Noble, which is a magical skill in class. This skill will make others listen carefully to what Old John is saying unconsciously. This is why the offline teaching effect of Old John's advanced math tutoring program is very good. As long as he talks on stage,
The students in the audience will definitely listen carefully, and there will never be any possibility of desertion. In this case, can the teaching effect be bad?
The same goes for dwarven architecture.
The effect is just not the same.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Old John teaches advanced mathematics, and the students' scores in the audience have improved by leaps and bounds.
Old John taught the dwarves architecture, and the students in the audience fell into a deep sleep.
I don’t blame Old John, nor the tourists, mainly because...
I really can’t understand it!
What you don’t understand is like this. If you don’t understand, you don’t understand. No matter how serious you are, you can’t understand. The more serious you are, the more you want to sleep. The more serious you listen, the faster you fall asleep. The students who are fast asleep in the audience are the ones who are serious in class.
Evidence of listening.
After this lesson, Old John just had to put an ellipsis on his head to express his entire mood.
Discounting the stunning dwarven architecture, the Academy of Magic's open day was actually quite a success.
On January 23, the amusement park set a new single-day attendance record since its opening.
1.1w people!
What is this concept?
More than 1.7 million tickets were sold.
Some of these tourists are local tourists, and most of them come from out of town specifically for the opening day.
All I can say is that the first opening day was just right.
The Incredible Magic Academy officially opened on January 15th. On the 16th, Wang Xinghua’s guide was released. On the 18th, bloggers who started to arrange business orders successively posted the edited videos on major video websites. On the 20th, the data of Wang Xinghua’s guide was released.
Major videos have pushed her to a level that is not hers.
It can be said that around the 20th, the entire Internet was full of desperate netizens clamoring for more tickets from the amusement park.
Jiang Qi doesn’t know how many of these netizens clamoring for the amusement park to release more tickets will actually buy them. But the admission data on the 23rd clearly tells Jiang Qi that as long as he dares to release more tickets, the tickets will definitely be sold.
of.
Why are internet celebrities so reviled these days, but so many people are willing to follow suit? Because popular things can be monetized very quickly.
This is also the reason why Ms. Xu is willing to offer an astonishing price of 800,000 yuan.
Otherwise, the popularity of the Incredible Magic Academy is really high during this period.
Not only is it highly popular, but it also has high public favorability. It is high-quality popularity.
Who wouldn’t want to enjoy such high-quality heat?
With the current size of Galaxy Script Theme Park, it is impossible for 11,000 tourists to have a good experience in a single day.
Wait in line for two hours and play for five minutes.
But with the blessing of Toy Heart, the amusement park did not receive too many bad reviews.
The vast majority of tourists go to the Incredible Magic Academy, but the vast majority of tourists are just like the young girl behind Jiang Qi. They can only experience one class after queuing online for a day, and even in school they can only experience one class.
You can walk around for half an hour.
But this does not affect tourists' enjoyment of the Magic Academy.
"We have to wait in line for so long, can it be fun?" Jiang Qi asked knowingly.
"It's fun! It's really fun! Really, I won't lie to you!" the girl said seriously, "There is no charge for the open day, and there is no limit on attendance, so it's good to be able to get a popular course! I remember the next open day is 3
The number will be here soon. Anyway, the online queue does not require you to stand in line at the school gate. You can really go and wait in line to try!"
"I think this open day is very good. I was still hesitant to buy tickets at first. 688 a ticket is quite expensive. If it's not fun, it will be a big loss."
"I'll let you try it out first on the opening day. I started grabbing tickets since I got home on the 23rd, and I haven't been able to grab them until today."
"I heard from the gossip that the school actually has 8 floors, but the remaining floors have not been completely renovated. The installation of props and other mechanisms is more complicated, so they are not open. It would be great if the remaining floors can be opened soon. After they are opened,
I guess I can sell more tickets. I have a broken phone and a broken computer, so I can’t even grab tickets. I’m so pissed off.”
“You can’t grab the 688 ticket, and you can’t grab the 2888 ticket either. Apparently I read the online news, and it wasn’t so fast when the tickets were opened on the first day. Now every time the tickets are opened, it takes a second. How come there are so many people trying to grab it with me?
Tickets?!"
"if……"
"The sesame cakes are ready, young man, how many do you want?" The mother-in-law interrupted the girl's murmur to herself.
"30 pcs. This is packed in two bags, one bag with 5 pcs and one bag with 25 pcs."
Jiang Qi scans the QR code to pay.
"Okay." My mother-in-law quickly bagged the sesame cakes and reminded me thoughtfully, "Young man, these sesame cakes have to be eaten while they are hot to be delicious. Don't buy so many at once next time. It's cold now. When it gets cold, go home and heat it up again.
It’s not as delicious as when it’s freshly baked.”
"Mother-in-law, don't worry. There are many people here, so we can definitely finish it while it's hot." Jiang Qi walked away with the bag.
Just kidding, just 25 sesame seed cakes are not enough to fill the gap between Wang Xinghua’s teeth.
As for the remaining five sesame cakes, Jiang Qi has three and Wang Erya has two.
Yes, Jiang Qi came to the train station to pick up people this time not only to pick up Wang Xinghua, but also to pick up Wang Erya. To put it more bluntly, Jiang Qi was picking up Wang Erya and Wang Xinghua by the way.
Morrowind High School is on winter vacation.
Compared with Wang Erya who came back early from the winter break when he was a freshman in high school, the winter break in the sophomore year was obviously much shorter. Jiang Qi asked Teacher Cai to find out that the winter break in the senior year is shorter, with two breaks, which only ensures that students can eat New Year's Eve at home.
The rest of the night dinner and Lantern Festival dinner are not guaranteed.
Of course, this is only for ordinary high school seniors. High-priced classes like Wang Erya are much more casual. As long as parents request, students can stay for a few more days.
Jiang Qi was waiting for someone at the exit with sesame seed cakes in hand.
Wang Erya's car arrived a few minutes earlier than Wang Xinghua's and left the station first.
Jiang Qi was eating sesame seed cakes and didn't pay attention to the time, nor did he see the message Wang Erya sent him a minute ago. He didn't notice it until Wang Erya trotted up to Jiang Qi dragging two large suitcases.
"Happy New Year, brother!"
The New Year has not yet arrived, but blessings have arrived first.
Jiang Qizai looked at Wang Erya carefully: "I've lost weight."
So thin.
Wang Erya used to be as thin as a stick due to malnutrition. Later, after becoming a human, she ate and drank every day, and she was growing taller, so her height and weight increased by leaps and bounds.
The food in Chenfeng is good, and Wang Erya's tuition is included in the food fee. The child is worried about money and insists on paying for the tuition in the cafeteria. In the first year of high school, he turned from a small skinny man into a round face.
.
Now the round face has lost some weight and turned into a plain, normal face.
He is actually a bit taller, and seems to be taller during the National Day.
"How tall are you now?" Jiang Qi first asked about his height.
Wang Erya smiled so much that his front teeth were exposed: "I just measured it before leaving school, it's 1.64 meters!"
"That's right. Keep up the good work and try to grow to 1.66 meters next year!" As he said that, Jiang Qi looked behind Wang Erya to see if there was any familiar figure.
At first glance, no.
According to tradition, Wang Erya basically brings a few classmates with him every time he comes back from vacation.
I’m not sure exactly how many classmates there are, but there must be Qi Si.
If conditions didn't allow it, Qi Si would have loved to live in an amusement park.
With Qi Si's character, it was inconceivable that Jiang Qi was surprised that Wang Erya didn't cry out and beg Wang Erya to get an accommodation ticket through the back door on the opening day of the Magic Academy.
As a result, Qi Si didn’t seem to come with us today.
"Didn't Qi Si come with you?" Jiang Qi was a little surprised, and many bizarre thoughts came to his mind.
Good sisters had a falling out?
Qi Si’s final exam results were so poor that her mother grounded her?
Or is Qi Si’s bank bankrupt?
No, Grandma Nangong is still on tour with a theater troupe in other places!
"Sisi is training in a closed box." Wang Erya explained, "She is going to compete in the spring. She has been training in a closed box at her family's martial arts gym since last month, and she didn't come back to take the final exam.
"
"Playing a game?" Jiang Qi didn't quite understand.
"A martial arts competition." In fact, Wang Erya didn't understand it very well. "It seems to be some kind of championship. Qi Si said that in this competition, if you get a good place in the college entrance examination, you can get a points reduction. If you are lucky, you can get a pass."
"Teacher Cai said that with my current grades, I will definitely have no problem taking the undergraduate exam. If I work hard, I might be able to pass the exam."
"Sisi... Teacher Cai suggested that she consider the international class. Sisi doesn't want to go to the international class, so she just wants to play in competitions, so that maybe we can go to the same university."
Jiang Qi:……
Qisi, she really made me cry to death.
Looking at Wang Erya's face, which was obviously thin due to studying, Jiang Qi said with some distress: "Erya, you don't have to study so hard. For the college entrance examination, you should do what you can according to your ability. There is still a year and a half, don't rush, we can't do this during the winter vacation
When you study again, you have to have fun!"
"At the Incredible Magic Academy, I have asked Principal Peggy to reserve a staff dormitory for you. Have fun and let it go. You are not allowed to study until you have played for 8 hours a day!"
Wang Erya:......
Wang Erya opened her mouth to say something, when she heard a high-pitched, clear and enthusiastic shout from the distance: "Boss!"
"You came to pick me up in person!"
It's Wang Xinghua.
and her 4 large suitcases.
Jiang Qi & Wang Erya:???
"Where did you get so much luggage?" Jiang Qi soul asked, "I remember you only had a small suitcase when you left?"
It doesn’t matter if a small one becomes a big one, 1 becomes 4, it’s a super double!
"I've been on tour for so long, and I don't want to perform. I just need to make arrangements with the theater. I have to go to a new city every once in a while, and of course I have to buy more local products!" Wang Xinghua said happily, "Boss
, I have great good news here, you will definitely be very happy when you know it, do you want to hear it?"
"I don't want to." Jiang Qi said expressionlessly.
Wang Xinghua pretended not to hear: "Oh, Erya, you seem to be taller than me! Wow, you have become a human, but it's different and you can grow taller."
"Sister Xinghua, you can grow too."
Wang Xinghua waved her hands repeatedly: "I don't want it, I don't want to be a human being."
Jiang Qi:……
This half-ghost king, this is a train station, please restrain yourself when you say such things.
"Boss, guess what good news it is?" Wang Xinghua looked at Jiang Qi expectantly.
Seeing how excited Wang Xinghua was, Jiang Qi thought it might be good news, so he really thought about it.
"Well...you reported a bunch of criminals and earned a lot of bonuses?" Jiang Qi made a bold guess.
Wang Xinghua waved her hand: "Oh, this is not good news. This is just a little legal extra money. The banner is still there and Feng Ling has not brought it over. It is too expensive to mail it. Anyway, there are so many people in our troupe, and the suitcase is full.
It can fit in."
Jiang Qi:???
Did you really report a bunch of criminals?
The righteous passer-by and the half-ghost king.
What makes the half-ghost king transform into a messenger of justice?
It's a bonus.
"Did you win the lottery?" Jiang Qi boldly guessed.
"How is it possible? I never spend such unnecessary money."
"What is that?" Jiang Qi really couldn't think of it. In his opinion, Wang Xinghua's so-called great news should be related to money.
"I've finished writing the lyrics to "The Mulberry Picking Girl"!"
Jiang Qi:!!!
After Wang Xinghua's excited explanation, Jiang Qi finally figured out how Wang Xinghua finished writing the lyrics that had been delayed for more than half a year.
It all depends on the help of peers.
The troupe has been touring for so long and has met many colleagues along the way.
Those who are qualified to perform "The Legend of the Princess" are basically the best major theaters in various places. Like the Fangyuan Theater, most of these major theaters have their own theater troupes.
Communication among peers is inevitable.
Feng Ling is a professional opera actor, and Wang Xinghua is a professional opera lover.
You know, one of her skills is that she is a lover of opera.
Communication among colleagues is not only communication between opera actors, but also communication between opera lovers.
Although opera is not very popular these days, everyone basically sings old operas and few new operas appear, but it does not mean that no one can write operas.
Someone is still writing the playbook.
With the help of colleagues who wrote the script, Wang Xinghua struggled to complete the remaining lyrics of "The Mulberry Picking Girl".
The troupe's rehearsal for "The Mulberry Picking Girl" started a long time ago. Except for the unfinished lyrics, most of the arrangements have been completed.
It can be said that after the other members of the troupe come back from tour and have finished their annual leave and have about half a month of rehearsals, "The Mulberry Picking Girl" will be ready for performance.
"The Mulberry Picking Girl" is a new year's play after the theater was renovated and reopened.
Chapter completed!
