Chapter 472: Spending money to deceive people to go to Daning to support the scene!
After eight consecutive days of performance, the crew could no longer hold on, and the premiere of "Once Upon a Time in the Wind and Rain Tower" came to an end.
The drama, a new type of drama, was exposed to the people of the capital for the first time and caused an unprecedented sensation. The protagonists in the drama became the objects of discussion among the people after dinner. People especially liked to talk about the few scholars in it.
characters, and despised their performance. Scholars, a group that had been sanctified before, suddenly lost their reputation in the hearts of the people.
This should be the first literary and artistic work in the Ming Dynasty that confronts pseudo-intellectuals and hypocrites. The repercussions and impact it caused are exactly what Zhu Youjian hopes to see most. Without the more popular media of drama, it would really be impossible
It can't have such a big impact.
"Masters, this is the share of the cost of the first performance. Our play has been performed for eight consecutive performances, and the total income is 3,200 taels of silver dollars. The share given to the theater is more than 900 taels, and the remaining money is all for the performers.
We are the leading actors and have contributed a lot to the success of the play. We share a total of one hundred and eighty taels of silver dollars. I hope you won’t find it too little.” After the performance was completed, Ruan Dacheng asked the theater company’s accountant to quickly calculate the income.
Then the host divided the money.
Shi Yuwei, who was the lead actor and executive director, received the most money, more than one hundred and eighty taels. The rest of the crew also received a lot, even those who did chores received nearly ten taels of silver dollars.
"President, the slave family has only contributed a meager amount. Is it difficult to convince the public with so much money?"
"Don't be humble, everyone. Everyone sees how much effort you have made. I feel that this little money is a little hard to come by. Don't worry, our show will make more money in the future. I
The idea is to perform five or six more performances next month after a break. In addition, we have to strike while the iron is hot and rehearse some new plays and sketches, so that the theater can have performances every day. In this way, everyone in the drama club can live
It’s a good time.”
"The president has done a good job for us, and the Nu family and others are very grateful. If there were performances every day, how much more could we live a good life? It would be a blessing!" In terms of income, Shi Yuwei could not compare to what she earned before.
It's a little, but the money she earns from acting now makes her comfortable. She thought her income would be lower after changing careers, but now it seems that her annual income is several hundred taels higher just by acting. This way, she can live a better life
The standard is no worse than that of a famous prostitute.
Actors like Xiao Taohong are also very satisfied with the drama club's share. This time she received more than thirty taels of silver dollars. In addition, she also received a promise from Shi Yuwei to hold a show at the Grand Theater in the near future.
A special performance of personal songs. After all the calculations, it is no problem to earn one hundred and eighty taels of silver dollars a month. Her life will also not be affected by the transformation.
Those who are at the top of the entertainment industry will indeed make more money than ordinary people. This cannot be changed in any era.
"Next, in addition to continuing to improve the script, we also have to hurry up and come up with the Wu version. It is estimated that we will go on tour in Songjiang before the end of the year, or early next year. Everyone will have to pay attention to this." Ruan Dacheng said compared to the crew.
Everyone is more looking forward to a tour in Songjiang, which is a great opportunity to go to the hinterland of Donglin and slap them in the face. Naturally, the sooner the better.
Lao Ruan has now begun to imagine the scene when the people who bullied him saw him after the Songjiang tour. Humph, when I begged my grandfather to sue my grandma, I was not readmitted by you. Now I won’t punish you.
I'm sorry for the great fortunes I've had in recent years.
Lao Ruan wanted to return to his hometown with honor and give the Donglin people a good face. A group of Mongolian nobles far away in Guihua City have also been thinking about being part of the military meeting of the Fifth Army Governor's Mansion held by Hu Hansan in the past few days.
, there is an important arrangement, which is to allow the Mongolian tribes near the naturalization to form a coalition to cooperate with the battle of Fu Liao.
There are more than just enemies of the Manchus in Liaodong, the Horqin Mongols are also a force that can cause great trouble. Zhu Youjian's idea is to rely on the Mongolian forces currently under his control to complete the containment of the Horqin Mongols!
How to mobilize these Mongolian tribes? It's very simple. Just use silver coins to solve the problem. A cavalry costs five taels of silver coins to start. After arriving at the Daning front line, they will be equipped with some basic military supplies, and then give them five taels of silver coins. If they are in
If you persist on the Daning front line for more than a month, you can receive an additional reward of ten taels. In other words, a hiring fee of more than twenty taels per head is required to hire them to go to the Daning front line to help the main battle troops.

As for the gains in the war, all the gains belong to them. The Ming Dynasty will not get involved. Whether they can grab things depends entirely on their ability. To be honest, Zhu Youjian does not have much hope for the results they can achieve. As long as
When they arrive on the battlefield, they can complete their mission. With nearly 100,000 mercenaries gone, Horqin Mongolia will no longer have any spare power to help the Manchus fight, which can reduce a lot of pressure on the southern and northern Liaoning war zones.
Spending more than two million taels of silver dollars and hiring about 100,000 helpers, Zhu Youjian felt that this business was not a loss. If he seriously raised an army of 100,000 people, the cost would only be more than this! That is to say, deceiving people is too poor and only when they see money, can they
Get it at such a cheap price! In addition, spending this money can also play a role in further promoting the Ming Dynasty currency in the grassland. It can be regarded as a transfer payment allocated to the grassland. It will not take long for the money to return.
To Daming!
Although Zhu Youjian did not have much hope for Mongolian mercenaries, the Mongolian tribes who were hired did not think so. After receiving the invitation documents from the Ming Dynasty, they naturalized and the Mongols in Xuanhua responded very positively. They were so positive
, on the one hand, it is the effect of the silver dollar, and on the other hand, they have a strong hatred for going to Horqin Mongolia! In recent years, Horqin Mongolia and the Manchu Qing Dynasty have worked together to bully and exploit the Chahar Mongolia and the Tumut Mongolia.
It's very powerful. These tribes have accumulated a lot of grievances, and now they have the opportunity to make money and take revenge. It is definitely a rare opportunity.
If you go to trouble Horqin Mongolia, will you kick yourself on the iron plate? The Mongols who actively participated in this matter have no need to worry. The reason why Horqin Mongolia is arrogant is because he sent a lot of women to the Manchus. With the Manchus and Qing Dynasties
Great backer. Now, the Manchus have Ming people to take care of them, just when their illness is killing them. Even if the Ming people are unfavorable in the battle of Liaodong, it will not be a problem to defend Daning. If the Manchus and Qing Dynasties have the ability to take back Da Ning
Ning, they have already taken action. Are they willing to let the Ming people mine gold there in the past two years? As long as the Ming people stay in Daning, the Mongolian tribes are not afraid of the Qing's revenge and can boldly beat Horqin.
