Chapter 405: Mr. Jin who wants to learn storytelling
Chen Changsheng came to the teahouse to tell stories as usual.
Today we are talking about "Liancheng". The chapter talks about Shi Juren's daughter Liancheng who admired Qiao Sheng, but Shi Juren did not want Qiao Sheng to become his son-in-law, so he betrothed Liancheng to the son of a salt merchant.
But not long after, Liancheng suffered from a strange disease that required the breast meat of an adult man to be cured. Shi Ju wanted to treat his daughter and promised that whoever would save his daughter would marry Liancheng to him.
Qiao Sheng came to Shi's house to save Liancheng without hesitation. However, after Liancheng recovered from his illness, Shi Juren broke his promise and did not marry Liancheng to Qiao Sheng.
Unexpectedly, Liancheng died within a few months, and Qiao Sheng also died of grief.
The two reunited in the underworld, and with the help of their friends, they both came back to life. After experiencing various hardships, the lovers finally got married.
When he came off the stage at noon, Chen Changsheng was dragged by Jin San to drink tea.
Jin San was very curious about the book he was talking about, so he asked: "Mr. Chen, is there really an underworld in this world?"
"Do you think Mr. Jin has it?" Chen Changsheng asked.
Jin San thinks there is one, but has never seen it.
He said: "In my early years, I also had a crush on a girl, and we were in love, but she got a strange disease and died without being cured."
After hearing this, Chen Changsheng said: "Jin Sanye, a story is a story after all."
Jin San sighed and said: "I also know that I just felt dizzy for a moment. The main reason is that the story Mr. told me was too easy to believe."
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "Is that so? Then what Chen said later will be more false."
When Jin San heard this, he smiled and said, "That's not possible. If it were fake, it would be boring."
Chen Changsheng glanced at Jin San and asked, "I heard from the guests in the teahouse that Jin Sanye still hasn't married a wife and has never taken a concubine. Is it because of that girl?"
Jin San thought for a while and said: "That's right, but there are other reasons. I am very nostalgic, and I don't have any great skills. I can't do business or study. Like me, I stay in the teahouse every day to have fun.
Which girl would be willing to marry me?"
Chen Changsheng said: "If Mr. Jin wants to marry a wife and take concubines, it shouldn't be difficult. Maybe it's just a matter of opening his mouth."
With the power of the Jin family in Qingshan City, it is not easy to find a match for the young master in the mansion.
Jin San smiled and said, "Yes..."
He did not deny that with his family background, he could do this.
"It's just that I'm not happy about it."
Jin San said: "Sir, don't think I'm very beautiful. In fact, it's just like that. I'm just beautiful on the surface."
"Why did Mr. Jin say this?" Chen Changsheng asked.
Jin San opened his mouth, but stopped there. He shook his head and didn't explain anything.
Maybe he just said this because he was unhappy in his heart.
Chen Changsheng did not ask any more questions, but drank tea with Jin San.
Although Jin San looked like a dandy, he was different from ordinary dandies. From the very beginning, he had never looked down upon such a low-class storyteller.
Jin San suddenly asked: "I want to learn storytelling from my husband, is that okay?"
Chen Changsheng asked: "Why does Mr. Jin want to learn this?"
Jin San said bluntly: "Actually, I have wanted to learn for a long time, but no one dared to teach me. I asked the storyteller before, and he said that it would be okay if I taught others, but I am Jin Sanye, so he can't teach me.
I don’t even dare to teach.”
Chen Changsheng smiled and said: "If you really teach me, and let Master Jin know that Mr. Jin is learning this low-level kung fu, then the previous gentleman will probably suffer a lot, and it may even be fatal."
Mr. Jin Sanye smiled helplessly and said, "Yes..."
Chen Changsheng said: "So, why did Mr. Jin come to ask Chen again?"
"What if sir is willing to teach?" Jin San said.
Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "Chen doesn't dare to teach either."
"well……"
Jin San sighed helplessly, he also guessed that there was no such eventuality.
Chen Changsheng murmured: "But speaking of it, Chen really wants to teach someone..."
"Ah?" Jin San was stunned for a moment and asked: "How old is Mr. Chen? Is it still early to accept a disciple?"
"There are always times when you are too busy."
Chen Changsheng said: "The business of the tea house is so good now, and I only talk about it for one morning, and the afternoon is free. I can't let the tea guests just drink tea."
After hearing this, Jin San also felt that it made sense.
He then asked: "Does Mr. Chen have anyone to choose?"
"There is one," Chen Changsheng said.
He looked at Mr. Cao who was busy not far away.
Although Mr. Cao is just a waiter, he is very good at talking and talking. He has a good foundation and is easy to teach.
"Cao Fa?" Jin Sandao said.
Chen Changsheng said: "If you have some basic knowledge, you can get twice the result with half the effort. The main reason is that Chen's storytelling is mainly based on stories, so I only need someone with a sharp tongue."
Speaking of this, Jin San also reacted, "It's true, when it comes to performance and commentary, Mr. Chen did not take advantage of a few things."
"To be honest, Chen has never learned it before."
After hearing this, Jin San paused for a moment, then reacted and said: "No wonder..."
He felt that something was wrong with Mr. Chen.
Now after listening to it, I understand everything. It turned out that I had never learned it before.
"Mr. Chen is also quite remarkable..." Jin San sighed and sat up straight.
Chen Changsheng asked with a smile: "Isn't it okay to be half-assed?"
"Of course!" Jin Sandao said: "Even with half a skill, Mr. Chen can still win the applause of the whole house. Isn't it amazing!?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "What Mr. Jin Sanye said makes sense."
Jin San smiled and said: "So, Mr. Chen, this is not a storyteller, why not teach me too when you teach Mr. Cao?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "Storytelling is definitely not possible."
But he changed his tone and said, "You might as well..."
Jin San's eyes lit up, waiting for his next words.
Chen Changsheng said: "Let me teach you how to write a storybook."
"Script?"
Jin San paused, thought for a moment, and said, "Really? Sir, you don't regret it?"
"Heaven knows and earth knows, you know and I know." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.
Jin San was very excited. He said three words of thanks in a row and asked his husband what apprenticeship ceremony he wanted and when he would teach him.
Chen Changsheng said: "There is no need for apprenticeship ceremony. The effort of writing a script can be finished in a few words. The main thing is to look at talent. Just treat it as a communication between you and me."
"How can that be done? As the saying goes, skills should not be passed on to others. This is Mr. Chen's job. How could I learn it in vain?"
Chen Changsheng thought for a moment and said, "If Mr. Jin is really feeling sorry for himself, then he might as well pay for Chen's bowl of tea. How about that?"
"this……"
Jin San didn't expect Mr. Chen to be so kind.
He quickly said: "Don't worry, sir! The tea tube is enough! Jin San will never implicate sir!"
