Daming: Wanted to be a small landlord, but was forced to ascend the throne

Chapter 192 Zhu Houzhao's Displeasure
Shangjing, at the gate of Jinghua No. [-] Study Room.

The hub hits, and the shoulder rubs.

Fortunately, Qin Shao had experience in opening a store in Jingshan before, and he was quite experienced in dealing with these.

On one side of the store is an open space, and the side of Xicheng Bingmasi was originally planned to be a market.

Just didn't get up.

Because small merchants still like to sell things at the place next to Xuanwu Gate.

That side is close to Xuanwumen, if there is any criminal or whoever is dealt with by the court, they will be escorted to pass through Xuanwumen, just passing by there.

Naturally, many civilians gathered there.

Where there are people, the market will naturally form.

If no one comes, no matter how well the market is set up, it will not be booming.

This place gradually fell into disrepair.

Wang Yun had stayed in the Bingma Division for several years before, so he had a certain relationship.

Qin Shao asked him to lead him to the management officials, saying that he wanted to use part of the open space there.

Because of Wang Yun, they also brought gifts.

The official directly said that you can use it as you like, but it is useless if you know wasteland anyway.

Qin Shao insisted on letting go of the leasing process, and rented the wasteland at a low rental price.

Of course, it also gave the official some benefits.

Nowadays, for customers who come to the store to spend, the carriage can be parked there, avoiding the crowding at the door.

It's just that someone has to find someone to guide the carriage to stop at that wasteland.

For today's opening, Qin Shao hired more than a dozen temporary workers.

Some are responsible for directing traffic; some are guiding customers into the store; some are entertaining in the store;

There are those who are responsible for drawing prizes; there are those who award prizes and so on.

Because the second and third prizes are for distribution of food, the on-site distribution is likely to be crowded and chaotic, causing congestion.

Qin Shao had negotiated cooperation with a nearby grain store early on, and the winners only need to go directly to the grain store to collect it with the coupon.

The price of tea varies according to the location.

There is a tea shed outside, and there is a big bowl of tea, which is more down-to-earth.

There are lobbies and private rooms on the first and second floors of the building. The tea sets used are exquisite after all, and there are special tea doctor services in the private rooms.

In addition to tea, there are also various pastries for sale, as well as melon seeds, fried beans, and orange pears.

Different locations, different selection of tea sets, and different prices.

It is convenient for people of different consumption levels to come to consume.

As for the private room, it has been booked in advance a few days ago, and it has already been booked.

Tickets for the storybook performance on the second floor have been sold out within three days.

There are two performances every morning and afternoon.

The storybook performances are free of charge. When purchasing tea, a ticket for entering the theater is included.

Those who got tickets went in to read the storybook, and some were in the second round, and directly started to participate in the lucky draw.

A shed was built outside, and storytellers were invited to listen to the books for free, which also attracted many people.

From the private room on the second floor, bursts of cheers and quarrels could be heard from time to time.

The people outside couldn't help but look up.

I am even more curious about the plot of "The Case of Guillotine Beauty".

When An Yongzhen asked the troupe to rehearse, Qin Shao gave advice.

Rehearse directly in flashback.

The first scene is that Bao Zheng wants to kill Chen Shimei, but the queen mother and princess stop him, causing a big disturbance in the court, and the conflict is fierce!
Bao Zheng in the end or not?Can it withstand the empress dowager and the princess intervening in politics?
What is the emperor's attitude?

When everyone was full of doubts, they moved to Qin Xianglian's countryside to live a difficult life, buried her in-laws, and prepared to go to Beijing to find her husband.

And so the story unfolds.

On the first day, the content of the three performances in the morning, afternoon and evening was the same.

Continue the following plot the next day;
And so on on the third day;
……

On the fifth day, "The Case of Guillotine Beauty" will be completely over.

Those who have watched the first scene are very curious about the direction of the following content, and want to know whether Bao Zheng has cheated on Chen Shimei.

Many people came directly after the show to ask how to enter the show on the second day.

Some people didn't buy the first show, and seeing so many people watching it filled with righteous indignation, they even asked about the second day's show, and immediately rushed to buy the second day's tea money. .

People are so hot!
Qin Shao simply adopted the pre-sale strategy.

I heard that it can be pre-sold, and many people directly buy all the upcoming dates.

Anyway, just pay for some tea.

The tea in the private room is enough, and if the tea in the lobby is not for high-quality tea, most people can afford it.

At worst, just stand there and watch.

Qin Shao lamented that the tastes of the people are really the same!
In the previous life, "The Case of Guillotine Beauty" was deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it is the same here.

At the beginning, Qin Shao wondered whether the people from Shangjing would like to be different after all.

It seems that his heart of gossip is comparable to that of many places, or even worse.

Qin Shao has been watching the situation everywhere in the office area on the second floor.

When Zhu Houzhao came with Jiang Bin, he saw it early in the morning.

Wang Yin took some people to be responsible for the security work, and he paid attention to Zhu Houzhao early on.

"Grandpa, do you want to..."

Qin Shao understood what Wang Yin meant.

The emperor is here, and they should go forward to greet him.

"Don't worry about it, we'll talk about it later. We've met the emperor here, especially those who know his identity, don't show up."

Qin Shao exhorted.

Wang Yin should be.

"Wenxuan (Jiang Bin's word), this business is booming, and the tea tickets seem to be sold out..."

Zhu Houzhao and Jiang Bin were wearing plain clothes and hats, hiding in the crowd.

Zhu Houzhao likes this kind of pretending to be an ordinary person to experience the life of ordinary people and see the lives of the people under his rule.

With such excitement, singing and dancing, and such high consumption power, Zhu Houzhao was very happy even though he did not get a ticket.

"General, I have bought a ticket."

Zhu Houzhao was watching the crowded crowd with great interest, when Jiang Bin squeezed over with two tickets.

"Wen Xuan, aren't the tickets sold out?"

Zhu Houzhao was very surprised.

"General, someone has a ticket, so I bought two tickets at a high price."

He didn't tell Zhu Houzhao that just now he coaxed and threatened him, and he paid twice the price for two tickets in the lobby on the second floor.

At the beginning, he also wanted to have a good talk with that person, saying that he was willing to pay twice the price for the ticket.

The man directly said that it was cool to let him go, even if it was ten times the price, he would not give him.

He had no choice but to use a certain identity's trump card, and that person obediently accepted his money and delivered the ticket.

"Since I bought a ticket, I can get a prize anyway, so I'll go get one!"

Jiang Bin guarded Zhu Houzhao and was about to enter the tea house. Zhu Houzhao turned around and said, and turned out again.

There were some black lines on Jiang Bin's face.

There are so many people here, even though there are hidden guards, he is still worried about the emperor's safety.

He also knew about those prizes, the most expensive first prize was only worth 50 taels of silver.

Will the emperor lack those?
Zhu Houzhao didn't care so much!
Rushed directly to the lottery place, passed the crowd in line, and squeezed to the lottery box to grab the prize.

"What are you doing? Others line up, why don't you line up?"

Someone saw Zhu Houzhao rushing directly to the front of the team and complained dissatisfiedly.

Jiang Bin pulled out the knife that was slanting across his body, and the man fell silent.

The other whisperers also fell silent.

The people in Shangjing have all seen the world.

A lot of people in casual clothes, not sure what their status is.

When encountering those tyrants, many people avoid offending people who shouldn't be offended, and basically it's better to have one thing less than one thing more.

It is not someone else who is in charge of guarding the prize box, but Wang Tu.

The eldest son opened a shop, and he came over a few days ago, insisting on helping.

He is not too young to do other jobs.

Qin Shao simply arranged for him to sit under a shed to guard the lucky draw box.

Responsible for guiding people to touch the prizes, and there is a young man next to him to help distribute the prize receipts.

Wang Tu is an old fritter, and he can tell at a glance that Zhu Houzhao and Jiang Bin's identities are unusual.

Jiang Bin's arrogant attitude.

Especially Zhu Houzhao's shoes with yellow diagonal stripes.

Hastily and enthusiastically greeted the two to touch the prize.

This is the first time Zhu Houzhao has seen this kind of lucky draw.

He fumbled for a long time for the densely packed small notes in the big cardboard box and finally pulled out one.

"One second prize, one stone of grain!"

"Guest officer, you are the second prize, only 15 people have it, you are really lucky!"

Wang Tu flattered Dao directly.

There is also a lot of discussion around.

This is the first time this year this way of drawing prizes.

For many, this is a cheap thing to do, with the excitement of a big gamble.

"Cultural propaganda, second prize! Second prize!"

Zhu Houzhao was also a little excited.

"Congratulations, General!"

Jiang Bin congratulated in a low voice.

My hands are a little itchy, I don't know what prize it will be if I touch it myself.

But the emperor just touched it, if he won the first prize, wouldn't it be...

Think about it or forget it.

When the emperor is no longer here, I will try it myself.

After the pair of vicious people who didn't follow the rules left, the crowd continued to line up in order.

After touching the second prize, I got a stone of grain for nothing.

There are also tea tickets obtained by snatching.

Zhu Houzhao felt that the tea here was extraordinarily sweet.

Besides, the performance in the stands was really good. At first, he thought it was some kind of patriarchal love.

Many of Daming's current scripts are left over from the Song and Yuan Dynasties.

Many of them are talented and beautiful. When young boys and girls are pregnant with spring, they will feel very beautiful.

But after a long time, I feel that those stories are very boring, and the love and love all day long are just things that girls read, which is boring.

Zhu Houzhao originally came to watch the excitement, thinking that there were still many old tunes.

I didn't expect it to be a case!
Still officials are involved, and even their royal ones, which is interesting!
The women think that Chen Shimei is a scumbag who is ungrateful, powerful, clinging to wealth and abandoning the feelings of his wife.

Hate, it is easy to be brought into the role of Qin Xianglian, it depends on the ending of Chen Shimei.

Men, actually think nothing of Chen Shimei's clinging to wealth.

Men are actually a hundred times more difficult than women in this world.

Women can live behind men.

And a man needs to work hard in the world and have his own place in this world in order to protect his wife and family.

Therefore, it is reasonable for a man to pursue wealth, even if he wants to marry a princess, but he should not abandon his married wife, let alone harm his wife or children.

And what will Bao Zheng do?What should the attitude of the royal family be?

The characters in this play are bright, contradictory and conflicting, and the roles of people at all levels are involved, which naturally resonates with many people.

Zhu Houzhao is also fascinated by watching, and he also has roles that can be brought in.

Especially for the sake of Chen Shimei, the princess asked the empress dowager for help.

The empress dowager knew that the emperor was not only the son of the royal family, but also the king of a country.

There is also the embarrassment of the emperor crying and whining, once you explain the truth to her, you will rush to use the big stick of filial piety to suppress your son.

Zhu Houzhao's expression gradually changed...

Go on!

Keep playing!
No curtain call!

No curtain call!

As the first few episodes wrap up, the cast takes a curtain call.

There were shouts from below.

Zhu Houzhao and Jiang Bin finally understood what happened to the yelling in the teahouse at the end of the first scene?
This is where the excitement ends, it's so embarrassing!
It's so uncomfortable!

"Wenxuan, where is Qin Shao? Let him come to see me!"

Zhu Houzhao asked Jiang Bin unhappy.
