Chapter 80 Troubleshooting [Please subscribe, ask for a monthly pass]

Zhang Buyi wandered around the room before throwing himself on the bed.The little fox immediately jumped up, wrapped around his neck, and rubbed against his face vigorously.

"Ha ha······"

Zhang Buyi stretched out his hand to stroke the fox, and smiled a little ticklishly, enjoying the rare comfort and joy.

Early the next morning, after Zhang Buyi finished his breakfast, he chatted with the shopkeeper who had a guest before leaving the inn.

I have to say that this inn has a really good service attitude towards the residents of the Tianzihao room.

No, for fear that Zhang Buyi was not familiar with the place and could not find the way, the shopkeeper even specially sent a waiter to guide Zhang Buyi.This service spirit is already comparable to later generations.

"My lord, this is Fang Tianwai's. Among the three major teahouses, the old-fashioned route they take is the most mysterious. I heard that they have invited a special Taoist master to sit in the town. Every time they give lectures, they are covered with clouds and mist, just like climbing a fairyland.

Among the three major teahouses, most of the passing tourists tend to come here first to hunt for novelties. "The shop waiter led Zhang Buyi to a tea house in the south of the city, stopped at the door and said.

Zhang Buyi looked up, and saw a plaque with a sense of immortality: Fang Tianwai.Judging from this plaque, at least it is the hand of the calligraphy masters invited.

Seeing that Zhang Buyi didn't answer, he just nodded.Seeing this, the waiter in the shop said, "The young one still has to work on an errand, so I won't accompany you in, young master. After you enter, young master, you will be entertained."

Zhang Buyi nodded again, and under the surprised gaze of the waiter, he casually gave the waiter a tael of silver, which made the waiter bend over to thank him.Such a generous guest is really rare.

Zhang Buyi didn't care either. Before Zhou Tai's identity was condensed, he was doomed not to carry too much silver with him. Although more than 20 taels of silver on him was not much, it couldn't withstand his extravagance for a few days, but sooner or later he would have to throw it away.

Instead of giving it away at that time, it's better to be generous, at least you enjoy it yourself!

The waiter in the shop watched Zhang Buyi enter the shop before turning around and leaving with a happy face.

······
As soon as Zhang Buyi walked into the gate of the teahouse, he noticed the excitement here. It was obviously early in the morning, but he found that many people had already entered the garden.

To be precise, Fang Tianwai is not a teahouse, but a tea garden.

After entering the gate, through the hall, you can see a large yard straight across.In the very center of the courtyard, there is a three to four meter high tower, and on the top of the tower is a simple gazebo arrangement.

A desk and a chair seem to be specially prepared for the storyteller.

And around the high tower, on the Langfang surrounded by a circle, there are all kinds of private seats, obviously this is the place for listening to books.The surrounding layout is also very elegant.

It was the first time Zhang Buyi saw such a different arrangement.It doesn't look like a tea garden for listening to books, but it looks like the people who came to see the tower in the middle opened the altar.

"Guest officer, how many are there?" After two steps into the door, before he had finished surveying the environment, a servant stepped forward and asked respectfully.

Zhang Buyi said with a smile: "One, a reader!"

"Do you have a reservation?" The boy replied in such a way.

"Yes, yesterday a guest came to help make a reservation!" Zhang Buyi replied indifferently.

Hearing this, the young man took out a list, checked it, and then said with a smile: "My lord, you have booked the third seat, please come here."

Zhang Buyi nodded slightly, followed the boy to an area with the best location, and was lured to sit down.

"There is still half a quarter of an hour before Mr. Cheng's lecture, young master can have some melon and fruit snacks." The boy explained to Zhang Buyi.

Zhang Buyi nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Your Master, if you have any orders, you can call the younger one at any time." Seeing that Zhang Buyi was angry, the young man explained a few more words to him, and then left.

Zhang Buyi was sitting on the seat, drinking tea, watching the guests gradually increasing around him, listening to their chatting, waiting for the story to start.

"I heard that Master Li Hongzhang has negotiated peace with foreigners again this time to cede territory and pay compensation?"

"Yeah, the sun never sets has taken some places in Jiulong Prefecture."

"Only in January did we lose [-] million taels of silver, which mortgaged the customs duties of several states; in February, Germany ceded Jinghai Prefecture; in March, France leased Leizhou.

Now that April has just begun, another treaty comes.The princes in the court are really busy enough! "In the words, there is admiration, but it is full of extreme ridicule.

"Hey, who's to say it's not the case, compensation is paid every day, and land is ceded every month. If this continues, the mountains and rivers passed down by the ancestors will one day be eaten away by the great powers."

"Hey, among all the lords in the court, there is no one with a strong temper. If it were me, I would rather fight to the death."

"What are you fighting for? After Taizu founded the country, monks have been banned for 500 years. In these years, monks have become rare. What about the great powers? They did the opposite, and integrated practice into all walks of life, creating a new era.

Do you know that there are rumors these days that there are more than ten thousand professionals who came to Great Xia this time? "

When some people heard this, Qiqi fell silent.

"Hey, why do you think so much, anyway, these are not things we can worry about!"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Cheng is here, listen to the book, hear!"

"..."

Zhang Buyi listened to the conversation of these people, and looked at them in surprise.It seems that there were many people who cared about current affairs in ancient teahouses!
It's just a little... Standing and talking without pain in the back, it seems that in any era, the king with a strong mouth is the mainstream!
At this time, everyone slowly stopped and looked at the tall tower in the center.

The entire tea garden, their seats are arranged in a circular corridor.In the very center is a rather oppressive garden, with a tall tower in the middle of the garden.

At this moment, white smoke from unknown sources began to rise in the garden in the middle, and the smoke that supported the garden was lingering, and everyone seemed to be in the clouds.

A middle-aged man dressed like a Taoist priest walked through the smoke, as if he was walking on clouds, and came to the podium of the central tower.

At this time, Zhang Buyi looked down at the white smoke that quickly came from the garden and filled to his feet.

"Dry ice stage effect? ​​Huo, does it exist in this era? No wonder it said that Taoist masters were invited. It seems that at least it is not entirely a rumor, at least it has asked Taoist priests such as heresy alchemy for help."

Feeling carefully, Zhang Buyi showed a dazed expression. The tea garden in Fangtianwai really took some thought to create an atmosphere.

The little fox in the skirt also popped out curiously.Some wanted to jump down to play, but when they saw so many people around, they didn't dare, and finally just looked curiously at Zhang Buyi's arms.

"The stars in the sky are full of moons, and the people on the ground are full of grievances. The birds in the trees are full of noise..."

"Snapped······"

"There are too many fish in the river and the water is not clear!"

At this time, Mr. Storyteller first read a passage of poems for mouth, then picked up the gavel on the desk and slapped it.

As the crisp sound spread throughout the yard, everyone fell silent and looked towards the center of the garden, as if he was in a tower of clouds, about to open the altar to tell the storyteller.

"Today we're going to tell a weird story called: Love with Yellow Eyebrows! It's about the last years of the previous dynasty, when the world was in trouble, people were worse than ghosts, a down and out scholar..."

As the storyteller started speaking, Zhang Buyi gradually understood.The story is probably about a love story between a scholar and a goblin.

For Zhang Buyi, it's a bit old-fashioned, but the twists and turns are quite good, so you can listen to it.Moreover, during the storyteller's speech, some expressions were also very interesting, a bit alluding to the current situation in Daxia.

It is very good at grasping the preferences of the audience, and it has the meaning of leading the trend!
Zhang Buyi listened for a while, then gathered mana in his eyes, and looked at the storyteller carefully.

The other party is indeed a practitioner, but he is not a hermit Confucianism.His cultivation base is a bit higher than Zhang Buyi's, and he looks like a second heaven.

Therefore, after listening for a while, Zhang Buyi shook his head, got up and left.

The story was going on smoothly at this time, and as the VIP seat, he suddenly stood up and looked a little garish.The audience was fine, and Mr. Cheng, who was telling the story, paused slightly.

And the steward of the tea garden followed Zhang Buyi out of the garden.

"My lord, are you not satisfied with the story we told today?" After the steward chased him out, he saluted Zhang Buyi and asked straightforwardly.

Zhang Buyi smiled and said: "That's not true, but I came to this city to hunt for novelties. Today I have booked three houses in one go. Although I don't mean to go to all of them, but your houses are not so novel that I linger on them. Just drop them." The other two are so irresistible."

The blunt words made the manager pause for a moment, and then he showed an embarrassed smile, and said, "It's just that I haven't been entertained enough!"

Zhang Buyi waved his hand indifferently, and said: "It doesn't matter to you, Mr. Cheng's story is still good, and it will catch people's hearts. I am in a hurry!"

After saying that, Zhang Buyi stopped talking, and the two said goodbye.The steward watched him for a long time, then sighed, turned around and re-entered the garden.

········
After leaving Fang Tianwai, Zhang Buyi went to Fulai Tower and Chengdong Yuexinzhai.

Both of them have their own characteristics. Fulailou is a traditional teahouse, which does not pay attention to bells and whistles.But the Mr. Storyteller has the most solid foundation. He is the one among the three who relies on skills the most. Zhang Buyi listened curiously for a long time.

And Yuexin Zhai is the most elegant, like a bookstore, suitable for people who like elegance, and it is in the high-end market, full of style.Coupled with Fang Tianwai's atmosphere creation...

Regular customer market, tourist market, and high-end market are all alive.Standardized industrial chain, the three companies can be said to have their own strengths and clear positioning, but these are not the goals of Zhang Buyi.

Reluctantly, he returned to the inn, and after staying for another night, Zhang Buyi went to other teahouses the next day.However, there are too many teahouses in the city. After wandering around for a day, Zhang Buyi realized that this was not going to work, and he didn't have the time to waste it slowly.
