Chapter 54 A bucket of ginger

The next day, before dawn, Ma Xiaolong pulled the three little girls who were sleeping in from the bed, washed them, and went to Tiananmen Square to watch the flag raising.

This is not yet the era when high-speed rail will be developed in twenty years. There are not as many people watching the flag raising as expected. Ma Xiaolong and the others easily stood in the front row and witnessed the whole process of flag raising with their own eyes.

How should I put it? It was quite exciting, but there were many people filming them with cameras, without giving them any privacy.

There is nothing we can do about it. In their four-person team, Ma Xiaofeng, the one with the lowest appearance, has a face value of 14, Chen Jun is almost 17, and Cinnabar and Ma Xiaolong are the ones with the highest face value. Those who don’t know where they came from may think that they are young.

Where's the star!

Not to mention, after the flag-raising was over, there was actually a trafficker... Well, it was the talent scout who came forward: "Young man, young lady, do you want to film a TV series?"

"..." Chen Jun hid timidly behind Ma Xiaolong. Ma Xiaofeng looked at him with vigilant eyes. She narrowed her cinnabar eyes and quietly stood beside Ma Xiaolong.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a bad person." This middle-aged man looks decadent and doesn't look like a serious person. He probably is often misunderstood. He quickly explained: "I am from the Beijing Film and Television Planning Center. My name is Li Anxue.

This is my business card."

Li Anxue quickly handed over a business card, and Ma Xiaolong took it, glanced at it, and said, "Then what? What do you want to do?"

"That's what happened." Li Anxue said: "I am a talent scout, and I have the task of discovering potential new talents. I was attracted to you just at a glance. You see, you are all in good order. Do you want to be an actor?

Thoughts?”

"Being an actor? Does it make a lot of money?" Ma Xiaofeng's eyes lit up.

"Uh...well..." Li Anxue is so confused. How can anyone ask how much money they have as soon as they come up? Can't we talk about dreams?

"Of course big stars make money, but you are nothing, so you definitely don't have much money."

"No money? Uh-huh!" Ma Xiaofeng looked disgusted.

"..."

Zhu Sha smiled, touched Ma Xiaofeng's head, and said, "You're right, we won't do anything without money."

"..." Li Anxue heard Zhu Sha's accent, then thought about Ma Xiaofeng's accent just now, and asked: "Are you from other places?"

"What's the matter? People from out of town can't come to the capital? Are you discriminating against outsiders?" Ma Xiaolong said that he smelled of old Beijing movies and directly slapped Li Anxue with a big label.

He had stayed in the capital for twenty years in his previous life, and the Beijing accent had long been his hometown dialect.

Hearing this authentic Beijing accent, Li Anxue was startled and quickly defended: "No, no, how could I discriminate against outsiders? Beijing welcomes all friends from all over the world."

"I'm sorry you don't dare." After a pause, Ma Xiaolong said: "But filming is quite fun. What kind of movies did your company film?"

"Ahem! Our company has just been established two years ago and has produced a movie called "Prime Minister Liu Luo Guo". We are currently filming in the Forbidden City! If you are interested, I will take you to see it?"

"..." Ma Xiaolong was stunned for a moment: ""Prime Minister Liu Luoguo"? Qing palace drama?"

"Oh? You're awesome, young man! Just by hearing the name, you can tell it's a Qing palace drama." Li Anxue gave him a thumbs up and said: "Don't tell me it's a Qing palace drama, but we invited teachers Li Baotian, Wang Gang, Zhang Guoli and Deng Jie to star in it.

, that shot was wonderful, lively, novel, and interesting..."

"..."

It's true, it's really the drama he remembered. He didn't expect that the drama was filmed this year.

"Then let's go!" Ma Xiaolong said to Zhu Sha: "The Forbidden City happens to be here, let's go and see how they film."

Zhu Sha nodded. She also wanted to see what filming was like. Now that she has the chance, she'd go!

Ma Xiaofeng and Chen Jun both had no objections, but they got up early and hadn't eaten yet! Ma Xiaolong suggested having breakfast before going over.

"There are small restaurants on both sides of the Forbidden City. I will take you there." Li Anxue was very attentive.

There was no way he could help it, he was conquered by the looks of Ma Xiaolong and Zhu Sha at first sight. With such looks and such provocation, it would be a shame not to film. He had to guide them no matter what, in case the two of them became enemies in the future, he

He can also brag when drinking with others: "Do you know, Xiaolong Ma? Do you know Zhusha? I am their leader. I think back then..."

Well, the sense of achievement of little people is so simple and unpretentious.

We found a small restaurant that sold breakfast, and did as the Romans did and ordered some charcoal rings and bean juice.

Chen Jun drank it with gusto, and Ma Xiaolong was used to it, so it was no problem at all, but both Cinnabar and Ma Xiaofeng vomited.

"Pfft - what the hell!? It tastes so bad!" Ma Xiaofeng had a sour taste in her mouth: "Did you pee in it?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" Ma Xiaolong said: "The taste of bean juice is just like this. If you can't get used to it, it's okay. I'll give you a bowl of tofu curd instead."

"Change it quickly, my mouth smells like urine." Ma Xiaofeng was so numb that she vowed never to drink soy juice again in her life.

"I can't bear it either." Zhu Sha pushed her bean juice towards Ma Xiaolong: "Change it with tofu brain."

Not many locals in Beijing like to drink bean juice. The reason why it is preserved is that it is almost the same as stewed stew. It is a part of the culture of Beijing. These two 'delicacies' are more popular than the other.

However, there are also people. Some people are born to love this. For example, Chen Jun, who is drinking deliciously now, finished one bowl and it was not enough, so he drank Ma Xiaofeng's bowl by the way.

Zhu Sha and Ma Xiaofeng looked at these two people and really couldn't understand why they liked to drink this stuff?

"Actually, just like coriander, stinky tofu, and Chinese toon, some people like to eat it, and some people don't like to eat it. Xiaojun and I are the ones who like to eat it, but you are the ones who don't like to eat it." Ma Xiaolong soaked the burnt rings in soy sauce.

, said: "Anyway, if you don't like it, just change it!"

Zhu Sha nodded, and she and Ma Xiaofeng ate tofu curd. It was salty, fresh, and meaty. It was delicious.

"..." Li Anxue squatted at the door to smoke a cigarette and forgot to bring his money when he went out.



The Forbidden City is also called the Forbidden City. Well, you all know this, so I won’t go into details.

Taihe Hall, also called Jinluan Hall.

At the moment, the crew of "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo" is filming a scene in which hundreds of civil and military officials go to court. Many extras are wearing the official uniforms of civil and military ministers or the clothes of imperial guards. There are about a hundred people inside and outside the palace.

Ma Xiaolong and the others followed Li Anxue to a place where the camera could not capture them, and looked at the filming scene in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

"Long live, please take a look at the shape of the contents in the barrel?"

"It's like... overlapping mountains!"

"That's it, Your Majesty, this gift is called 'A Bucket of Ginger Mountain', which symbolizes the eternal stability of the Qing Dynasty and the unification of the country by Emperor Qianlong! Your Majesty, do you think this gift is heavy? Or light?"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"..."

Zhu Sha tugged on Ma Xiaolong's sleeve and said in his ear: "It seems quite interesting."

"It's quite interesting." Ma Xiaolong nodded: "A bucket of ginger mountain is the ancestor of the homophonic meme."

"Homophone?" Cinnabar heard this for the first time.

"It sounds almost the same, but it actually means two different things." Ma Xiaolong put his lips to her ear and said, "For example: I went to buy Roujiamo and asked the boss to add more spicy food. After I took a bite, it fell to the ground and was stained.

I cried because of the mud. It turns out this is called 'spicy buns like mud'."

"..." Zhusha was stunned for a while, then suddenly her face turned red, and she bumped her shoulder hard against his shoulder: "Explicit."

"Hehe, there's more!" Ma Xiaolong said again: "I want to take you to eat roasted purple sweet potatoes, and then whisper in your ear, 'I am the purple sweet potato for you.'"

Zhusha's cheeks were hot, her forehead hit his chest, and she fell into his arms unable to come out.

The rich woman threw herself into her arms, and Ma Xiaolong happily accepted her.

This girl Ma Xiaofeng has been staring at the acting and didn't pay attention to the movement here at all, but Chen Jun saw it and even heard it, and her little face was not very happy: (??ˇ?ˇ??)
