Traveled through time and was picked up by a rich jk

Chapter 87 I said, no

My toes are already digging out four rooms and one living room.

so awkward.

"Gour-and-sour pork, don't you want to eat it?"

The young Lixiang looked at the distracted Chen Ling opposite and asked.

"Huh? Eat, eat, eat."

Why can't I taste it? Oh, I'm too embarrassed.

never mind.

Rika Shona observed Chen Ling's movements and expressions with great interest.

"Ling."

Others are either Big Brother or Ling Brother, but you call me 0?

It would be better to add "jun"...

The main thing is that the eldest lady's Chinese characters are correct and round, and you can think of that number when you speak.

Chen Ling raised his head and looked at her with a shy smile.

In fact, it was a shameful smile.

"If you're embarrassed to be caught buying R-rated DVDs for yourself, don't be."

Damn it, is it so straight?
  The childlike Lixiang looked serious, and there was no hint that she had any intention of embarrassing Chen Ling.

On second thought, yes!

His ID card now clearly shows that he is over 18 years old. He doesn't have to worry about going in and out of areas in bookstores. Okay, so why don't you buy a few and come back to watch and learn?
  Isn’t it because the disc I bought was discovered by the lady in the same room...

Sorry, let me give it a try first.

Chen Ling patted the table gently with his big hand and decided to try to win back the victory.

"Rika, aren't you curious about this type of...video?"

It's a pity that Chen Ling bought cavalry.

Objectively speaking, infantry should not be allowed in Tokyo.

And looking around at that time, there were no longer those actresses that Chen Ling once loved the most and who devoted themselves to art.

Rika Jina glanced at Chen Ling, who had a strange expression, and shook her head.

"I was lucky enough to hear the male classmates in the class talk about this."

彳亍, the current Tokyo DK, so terrifying!
  But everyone is almost at that age, so Chen Ling can understand.

But discussing the details in public was something Chen Ling couldn't even imagine.

"Then, how about I take a look at it later... It's nothing more than a purely academic exchange."

How dare he have any obscene thoughts about the eldest lady? He just felt that now that the matter was over, if he tried to tease her, Chen Ling would at least not lose.

Unexpectedly, Rika's gaze made Chen Ling panic.

It's like looking at an idiot.

"But this kind of thing is really disgraceful when it comes to social relations."

Okay, okay, can I admit my mistake?

“Private Marseille~”

Just admit your mistake honestly.

Sure enough, the kind-hearted eldest lady will not continue to be entangled.

It is something that is relatively sensitive between boys and girls, so there is nothing to bring up and discuss.

Let's order until we're done.

Chen Ling could finally have a good meal.

"By the way, Rika, what are you planning to hold in your class?"

"secret."

walk slowly.

Anyway, you’ll know when the time comes.

……

"call……"

Chen Ling sighed and took his hands away from the keys.

Today is Friday.

He has already prepared the meal, and the eldest lady is still busy with class rehearsals at school today. Although he sent a message to Chen Ling so that he does not have to wait, he is actually not very hungry at the moment.

You have to play the piano in April, right?

If I don’t have a piano, I’ll make do with an electronic keyboard.

It has been two days since the CD he bought was discovered, and the atmosphere between Chen Ling and the eldest lady has almost returned to what it was before.

It would be better to say that this matter was basically Chen Ling's unilateral feeling of embarrassment or shame. The eldest lady always had the same expression and her behavior was not abnormal. On the contrary, it seemed that Chen Ling was very innocent.

hateful.

This situation will not happen again in the future, and Chen Ling has not considered buying a second or third one for the time being.

One piece is enough. As a main dish, the quality is pretty good, and the video lasts for more than two hours, so you can taste it several times.

Although one is not cheap, it is still relatively cost-effective to buy.

The place he was in now was another utility room.

That's right, the apartment that the eldest lady's family bought is very large and so luxurious.

The electronic keyboard that Chen Ling bought comes with its own speakers, which saves the cost of purchasing additional speakers. It is not a stage performance anyway, so there is no need to prepare a good sound system at the moment.

Chen Ling plans to turn this room into a small music room, and then make some sound insulation effects so that the eldest lady can practice singing by herself in her free time.

I heard from Rika that her school's Spring Festival will be held on Wednesday next week. Chen Ling will go to school in the afternoon and Lixiang will take him in.

During this period, both of them were very busy. Chen Ling was busy reviving his ancestral skills. After all, he had something to go with. (bushi)

In fact, he is busy dealing with various affairs and improving himself at the same time. After all, he will be the main person in charge of the duo "rika" in the future. The eldest lady will be the boss of the whole process, so there is no hope.

On the other hand, Li Xiang, a young girl, was busy attending various offline programs with Chen Ling on weekends, taking various vocal lessons, familiarizing herself with the new songs "written" by Chen Ling, and preparing for the class's spring festival activities.

The level of busyness is probably about the same.

If she gets busier in the future, maybe Rika will have to give up some other things, for example... activities that are not compulsory to participate in school.

It was only a matter of time before we got to this point.

After more than an hour, when the sky was almost completely dark, Rika came back from school.

Next comes the hot dishes for dinner.

"Rika, how's your proficiency?"

"what is this about?"

After all, there are a lot of things she needs to be proficient in.

"I've had the new song for you for about half a month."

"Ah."

The black-haired girl blinked a few times.

"Comparatively speaking, it's not very difficult."

It means that you have almost mastered it.

"This is also one of the reasons why I chose this song. It's not too difficult and shouldn't take too long. It's just enough to be relaxed."

Rika's eyes seemed to say, 'Should I still be grateful to you?'

"I have an idea. We can hold a small offline concert to promote the next single release. While increasing the popularity, we will also add some peripheral sales. The concert will be organized by ourselves, and fans will be selected to participate and sing the songs we have already released. Three songs, the response is good and we will expand the scale. But maybe you need higher requirements for your ability Rika."

Very unconvinced, Chen Ling got stuck again mid-sentence and had to take out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket to translate.

"It's all up to you, Ling."

Still the same sentence.

I would like to express my opinion. It means that if I dare to do it, you dare to do it, right?
  "Then... try to hold it in late April. I will be in charge of the venue, equipment, and band. During this time, you can practice with peace of mind and prepare for the school spring festival."

"it is good."

It’s actually not, well, a bad review!

They must perform offline, but with such a large number of fans, they cannot start from street performances, so this idea came into being.

After the eldest lady agrees, the plan will begin to be implemented.

"As for the surrounding types..."

Just as Chen Ling was about to continue speaking, the black-haired girl picked up a piece of ribs and stuffed it in front of his mouth.

"Can you finish your meal first?"

Rika looked at him.

Guapi Chen Ling looked confused.

Sister, you stuffed it into my mouth, are you not even letting me say anything?

Chen Ling could only open his mouth and was forced to be fed exclusively by the childish name Lixiang.

Hmm~ Who made this sweet and sour pork ribs? The needle doesn’t poke!

He lowered his head to take a bite of rice, but did not notice that the eldest lady across the table glanced at the chopsticks and then stuck it into his rice bowl.

Dinner continues.

“So, the surrounding items shouldn’t be too expensive, and they need to be commemorative.”

Otherwise, if others don't agree with you and come over to watch the concert, I guarantee you will lose all your money.

Chen Ling took a sip of tea. Recently, he suddenly felt that he should have a cup of hot tea after eating. Isn't this more invigorating than a cigarette after a meal?
  It's bad, I'm only in my early twenties, and my mentality is already close to middle age.

Chen Ling wrote something about this concert on a scrap of paper torn from Rika's notebook.

"Knitted shopping bags?"

"Ah."

"A notebook signed by Rika?"

"Ah."

"Print T-shirt?"

"Ah."

"……computer?"

The black-haired girl looked up at Chen Ling, her face expressionless.

oh? It doesn't look like a robot.

"I'm telling you, give me some constructive suggestions. Don't just say um and um all the time. People will think I'm bullying you if you tell me."

It's obviously you who is exploiting me!

"Signed notebooks and shopping bags, low cost and practical."

Rika Shona was explaining the first two reasons why she nodded.

Okay, no problem.

"Rika doesn't have any other ideas?"

She pursed her lips, and the pear dimples on her lips emerged slightly.

tmd, it’s so beautiful.

Just for appreciation, nothing else.

"CD."

Well, what CD?
  Did you do it on purpose?

"The cost of the optical disc is too high, reject it."

The black-haired girl had an expressionless face, but she tilted her head slightly and did not question Chen Ling's judgment. Perhaps this plan was proposed just to tease the man in front of her.

"mask."

This was the second idea proposed by Rika Shona.

"Same as us?"

Rika didn't answer. She stared at Miaojiang next to Chen Ling for a while and began to draw on her notebook with a pencil.

In less than a minute, a sketch of a mask based on Captain Meow appeared in front of Chen Ling.

stunned.

What, you want to develop your fans into a meow cult? !
  "How about it?"

rika asked softly.

In these few seconds, Chen Ling had already imagined that when he held a concert in the future, two people wearing fox and "goblin" masks would perform on the stage, and there would be a terrifying scene of meowing meowing in the audience. .

Preaching, right?

But it's surprisingly interesting.

"I think it works!"

The eldest lady's drawing skills are also amazing.

However, Chen Ling felt that if it were Kunkun Cat, it might be even more awesome.

Forget it, let’s get down to business.

"Then this mask and the signed notebook?"

"Ah."

That's it, after two people discuss the same thing and reach an agreement, the feeling of pleasure is incomparable, and there is a feeling of being connected with each other.

Otherwise, there would be no need for Chen Ling to really pester Rika to express her own thoughts.

"You can design the signature yourself. As for the details of the mask, please give it to me as soon as possible. After all, it will take time to find someone to do it."

"Within this week."

That means it can be completed in two days, right? I suggest Sister Lixiang take the art exam. Do your family members know that you are so naughty?

"That's fine."

Then Chen Ling has a lot of things to deal with this weekend.

Damn it, sister Rika, if you don’t get a raise or promotion, your exclusive manager, part-time housekeeper Shushu, and songwriter will go on strike, right?
  what?
  Give me all the money you earn?
  Okay, even the stars in the sky, I can watch them with you.

Because the eldest lady has never talked about profit sharing, and she is still transferring money to the bank card every week. Although it is not as much as her current weekly income, she has already made her attitude clear.

Just try hard.

Chen Ling glanced at the time.

"Rika, is it time to go to class?"

The black-haired girl tapped her index finger on the table, seemingly reluctantly closing the copy of "100% Romantic Comedy" in front of her.

Singer Rika has been exploited by her personal manager and has lost a considerable part of her personal rest time. She can only have about half an hour to read comics before finishing dinner and taking vocal lessons.

Chen Ling lowered his head and prepared to contact relevant personnel to prepare for the small concert. When he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he discovered that two things that looked like tickets had appeared in Rika Rika's hands out of nowhere.

She put the two tickets on the table and looked at Chen Ling.

"what?"

"Want to go see it?"

Why don't you do things without any sloppiness?

Rika, with your mobility, it would be a pity not to go into the factory to make screws. (fog)

Chen Ling read the words on the ticket.

Hmm.tmd a lot of katakana, Kurushi.

He shrugged, not knowing what it was.

"Tickets to the theater, Romeo and Juliet."

As soon as this English name came out, the DNA moved. There is Shakespeare in this world, right? If there is no Hamoret, I don't really agree with it. (bushi)

However, we are all young people, shouldn’t we go see movies or something? Why is such an ancient theater? Oh, Chen Ling realized it.

This scene is so familiar.

Therefore, Rika's class is preparing for the classic drama, "Romeo and Juliet".

Dian within a dian, there have been many episodes where whenever it involves some kind of festival, the program that the protagonist's class must prepare for must be this drama.

happy.

The eldest lady shouldn't be that stupid, then she deliberately leaked her class's program.

Tsk, it was a secret before, but now you tell me directly, it’s really not candid.

"To observe, no, to reminisce?"

Almost spilled the beans.

The black-haired girl folded her hands on her chest, looked sternly, and said nothing.

It's too easy to attract attention, and I'm sorry for being born a rat.

"Go, of course I will go, but where did this ticket come from?"

After all, I haven't seen the eldest lady going out to play anywhere this week, so who should have gotten it from.

"See you soon. We had an appointment tomorrow, but she can't go."

Oh, it turned out to be her vote.

Chen Ling didn't think it mattered, but since his time was taken up tomorrow afternoon, he could only try his best to get things done during other times.

Great, a drama appreciation party with sister Rika.

After the eldest lady gave one of the tickets to Chen Ling, she took the metal thermos cup to take vocal lessons.

Chen Ling started to contact people.

His connections are, of course, very... low.

Yango Li Shuo is of no use in this regard. Boss Shuiwu, um... maybe we can rent a stereo?
  But Chen Ling needs to find the venue, peripheral production, and venue management by himself.

Of course, it is actually possible to cooperate directly with some companies and let them do everything, but Chen Ling does not plan to do this. Once the cooperation with such companies is interrupted for some well-understood reasons, they will lose a certain amount of initiative.

Absolute freedom must be maintained.

[Hey, is little brother Naoki here? 】

The universal tool man is here!
  Just because I can't do it doesn't mean that Rika can't be an undercover agent in our family.

Within a few minutes, Chen Ling received a reply.

【I am here! Brother, long time no see. How are you and your elder sister doing lately? 】

Not even half a month, which is still a long time.

[Yoshi, it’s okay, just a bit busy. 】

[Is there anything I can do to help? 】

Chen Ling has completely explained the true meaning of this saying: "Nothing goes wrong without going to the Three Treasures Palace."

My brother is also very wise.

[Well, brother, do you know which industries your family is more powerful in? 】

The other party is typing...

[Basically, most industries are involved. 】

【…】

You are so shameless.

[Actually, I want to find some industries to cooperate with that are not closely related to young famous artists, such as: performance venues, music equipment...]

I understand. After all, I want to minimize the impact of my family on them in the future.

[Hmm, I understand. Brother and eldest sister are planning to hold a solo concert? 】

[It’s not that soon... I just plan to hold a small concert. Now I need to prepare the venue, surroundings, equipment, etc., in order to reduce the possible impact of our family in the future. 】

Although there are systems to resist repression, they are certainly limited.

[Otherwise, brother, why don’t you go find some companies that are opposed to the family? 】

Chen Ling frowned. This guy spoke very sharply.

It’s definitely on point.

These companies whose interests are opposed to the Shona family may not necessarily pay attention to any request from the Shona family in the future.

interests come first.

As long as rika has enough energy afterward.

[That makes sense, you are quite good at causing trouble. 】

[Then, I will sort out the companies that can provide relevant support for my brother. I can also help monitor the trends. Your true identity has not been found yet. 】

Sri Lanka.

[Okay, thank you Ang. 】

Thank you very much. Without Naoki Wakana's help, this matter would have been much more complicated.

[Brother, you are welcome. Everything is for the eldest sister. 】

You want to be Rika-chan's most loyal licker, right?

[By the way, brother, can you agree to my request? If you ask the eldest sister, she will definitely refuse qaq. 】

【explain. 】

[Can I hold a small concert and allow me to attend it as a fan? Don't worry, I will definitely not let my eldest sister know. 】

[This is easy to handle, I will arrange it for you on Rika’s behalf. 】

[Thank you brother, brother is so kind! 】

Little brat, you are so easy to coax.

Chen Ling waited for a while, and Naoki Naoki sent a few company names, the company's business industries and corresponding contact numbers. It was so considerate.

[OK, just wait for my message later. 】

【Waiting for your good news. 】

The next step is to communicate one by one.

Don’t talk about cooperation or early discounts, just engage in normal transactions and don’t build deeper relationships.

In terms of equipment, Miss Mizuno’s main business is recording, but she still lacks some equipment needed for performances.

Everything about holding a small concert is inseparable from one word, money.

This is the reason why Chen Ling chose activity funds instead of songs when he redeemed system rewards last time.

After telephone communication, it can be determined that the venue and related equipment need to be reserved, and the company responsible for the venue will generally be equipped with certain venue services.

The initial date was April 22, which happened to be a Sunday.

After that, it’s time to pay the deposit online.

It lasts two hours and can accommodate 500 people, but Chen Ling only plans to invite 300 fans, which is the same size as some livehouses in his hometown.

Rather, the venue he wants to rent should be a livehouse.

Including performance equipment and venue management, the total cost after negotiation was 800,000 yen.

The price is not cheap because it is in a relatively prosperous area and the equipment is of mid-to-high-end quality.

But Chen Ling didn't feel any pain at all.

As Wu said, working capital can be used.

From this perspective, the system rewards still provide considerable convenience.

If Chen Ling and the others were asked to pay for it themselves, the flesh on his face would probably tremble.

This time Chen Ling had no choice but to register a new social account and add the contact information of the production company of Miao Dazuo Mask.

Then send them the design drawings.

Fortunately, Rika can draw herself, otherwise she would have to spend more money.

Your own creativity is precious.

When he is busy, time always flies by so fast that Chen Ling cannot believe that his Japanese can reach the level of simple business communication.

Although he still made mistakes from time to time and was considered by the other party to be a crooked Chinese.

Teacher Rika-chan supervises me very well.

After completing almost all aspects of preparation, there is one last question left.

band.

Of course you can just play the prepared accompaniment, but isn’t this not cool enough?

Anyway, I have money, so just invite me!

For sound effects, isn’t there a mixing master—Chen Ling?

But he doesn't know many bands now.

When trouble comes, water has no sister.

"Moxi Moxi, is this Miss Mizunashi?"

Just make a phone call, that's how adults communicate.

There was a yawn on the other end of the phone first, and then the lazy voice of Shui Wu came.

"Is this Rika-chan's assistant Minamino-san? At this time, shouldn't we respect the private time of the workers?"

The guy who runs the recording studio calls himself a migrant worker, right?
  The fact that he didn't hang up the phone directly showed that Chen Ling's operation was still within the tolerance level.

"Urgent, urgent, urgent, we plan to hold a small solo concert on the 22nd of this month. Now we need to find a good band. Does Shuiwu know anyone or recommend one?"

Shui Wu is the person in the industry who Chen Ling has had the most contact with Rika. She should be familiar with the style and direction of "Rika".

"Hey, that's a good plan. I know a lot of bands, but those that fit Mr. Minano's style may not be easy to find. Do you need a recommendation?"

"Then I'll trouble you, Miss Minami. Do you also want to come to the concert? No problem, we'll make arrangements for you too."

"I didn't even intend to say that...forget it, it's just what I meant."

Anyway, I don’t need money.

"By the way, what I'm looking for is, to be precise, guitar, bass and drummer. I'll be responsible for the keyboard myself."

Miss Mizuno was silent for a while.

"I think this is more appropriate, but solo flying requires time to get used to."

"Oh no!"

"Let me ask. In fact, there will be quite a few bands that are interested in you. You have to check out the guitar and bass, but you don't need to look for the drummer."

"why?"

"I can fight, what's the problem?"

"???"

I'm super, aren't you a stinky shop owner?
  ……

It was just April, and the rain was lingering. It didn't take long for the newly bloomed cherry blossoms to fall on both sides of the street.

Chen Ling and Rika Rika left the subway station, walked on the street, and headed to the theater.

It's been a long time since he and the eldest lady went out for a stroll in casual clothes. Chen Ling felt a little nostalgic.

I didn't wear a mask today, so it didn't matter even if I were side by side. In fact, when Chen Ling subconsciously wanted to distance himself, he received a meaningful look from Rika Shona.

Just do it.

"After watching the drama today, do you have any other plans?"

Chen Ling asked.

The black-haired girl Lixiang ignored him and walked forward, her shoe prints imprinted on the cherry-colored petals one after another.

(Spread your hands together)
  The old Riddler.

Just follow her.

When the two of them arrived at the entrance of the theater, it was just time to check in and enter the performance hall.

Check in and check in.

Chen Ling noticed that most of the people who came to watch the play were young couples, middle-aged couples, and old couples.

Well, corresponding to different age groups.

After all, this masterpiece is objectively of great artistic value.

But this was Chen Ling's first time to watch such a live performance.

I hope I won't fall asleep in the middle and embarrass Rika-chan.

He didn't take a nap and was feeling sleepy now.

Of course, the seat with Rika is connected together.

This isn't a movie, no one buys coke...

Oh, really buy Coke.

The lights dimmed and the drama officially began.

I thought it might be boring, but now Chen Ling discovered that drama can touch people's hearts.

It is not a science fiction movie. It does not have cool and shocking special effects or passionate fights. Instead, it relies on everyone's perfect acting skills to play love into a sad tune.

Opera and drama are not arts only for the elderly.

This is Chen Ling's feeling from the bottom of his heart.

In short, it is no worse than a certain league. This drama is enough to attract everyone's attention.

And the dialogue is in pure English, which makes you feel more immersed.

Next to her, Rika Shona was always sitting upright, carefully observing every character's expressions, movements, and even conversation and behavior.

How do you get yourself into that role? This should be the core of a drama actor.

This should be what Rika wants to learn.

I don't know if she feels anything.

If it were a play, then it would definitely be Juliet, right?
  Or engage in cross-talk, Romeo should be able to do it too.

But Rika's expression is a little difficult to control...

Hard to say.

The play was not long, and it ended in less than an hour.

When Chen Ling and Naomi Rika walked out of the theater, they didn't know when the clouds had dispersed, and the water-washed sky reflected the golden sunshine.

My mood suddenly improved.

"I didn't expect that the drama would be unexpectedly uninteresting."

Chen Ling stretched.

"Ah."

The black-haired girl nodded.

"Then what are we going to do next? Actually, I made an appointment to inspect the concert venue and pay the deposit on the way. How about... going now? It shouldn't be too far."

The young Lixiang raised her head slightly and looked at Chen Ling.

She tapped her foot lightly.

Are your legs numb after sitting for a long time?
  "No."

"Huh? Why?"

The eldest lady narrowed her eyes slightly and took a step forward, almost walking into Chen Ling's arms.

"I said, don't go."
