Although Shen Ao is not afraid, he does not want to cause unreasonable trouble. He is now dealing with Prince Xiang, the Lu family and Lou Bucheng with all his strength, and he does not want to cause trouble. Of course, if someone comes looking for trouble, he will not Polite.
To paraphrase that sentence, Shen Ao is not a troublemaker, but he is definitely not a person who is afraid of trouble. If anyone takes the initiative to cause trouble for him, no matter who he is, just fight back. Facing the overwhelming power of King Xiang Shen Ao would not give in to anyone, let alone anyone else.
After knowing the meaning of benefit money, the eyes of the sixty-nine people couldn't help but brighten up. Of course, no one would be stupid enough to take advantage of the opportunity to earn more money. The question now is whether they have the ability and whether they can Do this well.
At this point, the pile of manuscript paper came into play. When Shen Ao told everyone that they could use it to study, but they must not spread it to others, otherwise they would be severely punished, everyone rushed to get it first.
The so-called heavy punishment for slaves is to beat people to death without guilt. All you need to do is to show sufficient reasons, report to the government and pay some fines. This is also the government's way to prevent these powerful people from arbitrarily punishing slaves. Giving death will cause chaos. But in fact, there are many masters who do this.
Shen Ao just wanted to remind them. He didn't want to embarrass these people if it was not necessary. They were originally from a bad background and they were young but they had suffered enough. As long as they worked hard and were obedient, Shen Ao wouldn't mind giving them anything. A better future for them.
Bai Qiutong's hands were slow, but the maid Yunzhi's hands were quick. She grabbed a piece of manuscript paper with a piece of music written on it. On the top there were three big characters called Wu Geng, and below it was the word "Qu", "Yi Geng", "Yi Geng", "Yi Geng", "Yi Geng", "Nu Zheng". Xiang Simian, suddenly I heard Brother Han Chong calling out loudly, Han Chong called me brother, Han Chong called me sister, you were calling me outside, Xiaonu Xiufang listened, it was painful, I heard it. Yes, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it’s the second update...
This is something Bai Qiutong has never been exposed to before. At first glance, it is a short story, but how to sing it is a little unclear. With an uneasy heart, Bai Qiutong walked up to Shen Ao and said with a blushing face. He said, "Master, what key is used for this piece of music? Can you introduce it in detail?"
This is the first time Bai Qiutong talks to Shen Ao at such a close distance. It would be a lie to say that she is not nervous, but her mentality has become much calmer now. There is nothing else. She is a slave, and others are the masters. This is A world of difference.
"Oh, this is called Wu Geng, the tune should be like this." Shen Ao didn't think much about it. After taking the manuscript paper, he just glanced at it and hummed softly. I have to say, as a person, A good student with all-round development of moral, intellectual, physical, artistic and physical skills, Shen Ao still has a talent for singing. As soon as his voice came out, not only Bai Qiutong, but also other Qinghuan people fell silent instantly, and the sound echoed throughout the hall. It's all about Shen Ao's beautiful voice with beautiful melody.
Everyone who listened couldn't help but applaud in their hearts. Wu Lian, Bai Qiutong and others were even more happy. The Qingguo people in Yanchun Tower are all very capable, but their development is not good because they don't have new songs. Now that you have a new song, why worry about not having customers coming to your door?
Shen Ao didn't pay too much attention to the thoughts of Wu Lian and others. He just stopped after singing two verses, looked at Bai Qiutong and said: "The young master will continue to write the next song, just follow this melody. That’s it, do you understand?”
"I understand." Bai Qiutong was originally very accomplished in music, but with Shen Ao's personal guidance, there was nothing he could not understand or learn.
With Bai Qiutong taking the lead, other members of the Qing Dynasty who had grabbed the manuscript paper also crowded forward and presented the music in their hands to Shen Ao to listen to his teachings.
All Shen Ao writes are new songs that people of this era have never heard of. If he doesn't sing them again first, it will be difficult for others to understand the essence of them. So he sings a certain number, but he also explains to everyone that he Just sing it once. If you can remember it, go back and practice. If you can't remember it, I'm sorry. Then you can only watch others eat meat and you drink soup.
"Listen carefully, this poem is called Tanqingshuihe, and the melody is like this. The peach leaves point to the top, and the willow leaves cover the sky..."
"This song is called Zhaohuatai. As soon as the moon comes, the moon shines on the flowerbed. Sister Qiuxiang made a plan. She said she would come in the evening..."
"This song is about the second sister Wang missing her husband. The second sister Wang was sitting in the north building with tears in her eyes. She called out to her brother "Why hasn't he returned home yet" [Jiang Yangzhe]; the second sister Wang cried sadly and a group of chickens came running downstairs [Yi Qizhe]; The second sister Wang sat in the north building and communicated in tears, asking her second brother why he didn't come back to the building [You Qiuzhe]; the second sister Wang burst into tears and thought to her second brother that I would arrange the four seasons of the year [Huai Laizhe]...
"This song is about Hugh washing her red..."
"This song is for a lover..."
"This one is..."
In a short period of time, Shen Ao sang several songs. Fortunately, he had such a hobby in his previous life and was very familiar with these songs. He could just open his mouth and sing. However, even after singing for a long time, he felt a little dry in the mouth. Fortunately, Feng Xun showed up in time and brought delicious food and tea, so he had to take a good rest.
In one afternoon, Shen Ao conquered everyone with his talent, and also composed many of the songs he knew that were suitable for this era. At night, Yanchun Tower was not open for business. It was only said that it was closed for rectification, and For most of the day, all the Qingguo people also learned a lot. Even though the sky had completely darkened, there were still people surrounding Shen Ao, asking various questions and learning. If it weren't for Shen Ao's current status, It's not suitable to spend the night in Yanchun Tower. I'm afraid he won't be able to sleep that night.
"You study hard, and if you don't understand, just ask. Master, I will be here for one day at most tomorrow, so I won't instruct you. If any of you can familiarize yourself with the music in five days and perform it perfectly, you can go on stage to sing." , you can also get benefits while making yourself famous." Before leaving, Shen Ao said this, and then his figure gradually disappeared in the eyes of everyone reluctant to leave.
Shen Ao had been busy with the matter of Yan Chun Tower for two days. After teaching everything that was supposed to be taught, as expected, he stopped coming and instead went to supervise the decoration of the new restaurant. In fact, the decoration of the restaurant was basically the same. It’s coming to an end, and now it’s just about how to place some tables and chairs, and how to set up the stage in the hall.
The big workers who came from the Ministry of Industry came into play at this time. According to Shen Ao's request, they moved here the things they had made in Guochanglong Workshop in advance and installed them. As for the effect, except for a few people who were actually involved Other than that, others know nothing.
Lou Bucheng has not had a good rest in these years. Although he is very confident and does not think anyone will be his opponent in the restaurant industry, the renovation of the restaurant opposite is so loud every day that it still affects his nerves. For this reason, he also I sent someone to inquire, hoping to find out. Unfortunately, the restaurant opposite was very tightly sealed, and it was impossible to pry into it just by snooping.
Lou Bucheng simply stopped caring. He bought a lot of ingredients and was ready to start a price war with the other party. His idea was very simple. After you open the business, all the food and drinks here will be 20% cheaper. Not for anything else, just to defeat you because I can't make much money for the time being.
As long as you fail, he will monopolize this street, and then he will raise prices at will.
The arrogant Lou Bucheng did not know Shen Ao's tricks at all, and his preparations were destined to be useless. If the price must be reduced, not only will it not bring more customers, but it will also lead to his own Regret. Of course, these are things that he will know later, but now he is still full of confidence.
One side is waiting passively, not even knowing what the opponent is going to do, let alone knowing the trump card.
On the one hand, the progress of preparations is constantly accelerating, and various preparations are becoming more complete and complete. It can be said that the outcome has been decided when Lou Bucheng threatened thirty taels of silver.
...
Lu Mansion.
The current person in charge, Lu Shijiang, who is also Lu Wuchiao's eldest son, is asking his second brother Lu Shihe about the progress of rice paper production.
"Brother, the raw materials have been prepared, and each workshop is working hard to ensure the supply of goods. In order to ensure the supply of goods, we have purchased dozens of workshops in the past half month. Although it seems that the investment is a bit larger now, as long as we The goods were delivered to the Su family, and they paid the balance, and it was us who made the big profit." Lu Shihe said confidently.
The two brothers were born in the Lu family, which is equivalent to investing in a good pregnancy and being born with a golden key in their mouths. This is both a kind of luck and a kind of sadness. People like them, no matter what kind of efforts they make, will succeed. It's hard to excel or surpass your father's achievements.
Although the two brothers have been working hard and even united, which is rare in some big families, in fact, this is because the two brothers want to work together to do something. But no matter how hard they work, they still live in their father's Under the shadow.
The two brothers have said more than once that as long as they are given a chance, they will definitely perform well and prove their own value to others. However, the development of the rice paper industry has long been on the right track, and it is extremely difficult to change. .
God opened his eyes, and King Xiang came to cooperate. He not only promised that the land of King Qi would allow the Lu family's rice paper to enter, but also promised that the Lu family could sell the rice paper on their own without having to accept Guo Changlong's commercial control.
This is equivalent to giving them a ladder that can go directly to the heaven. When Lu Wuchiao called his two sons to discuss what to do, the two brothers said in unison that they must seize this opportunity to cooperate with King Xiang. Although It is said that the other party's request for 10% of the dry shares is a bit excessive, but thinking that self-selling is equivalent to having pricing power, so they took this opportunity to get out of the royal suppression, and they still felt that everything was worth it.
