Chapter 1231 History
"Hi Dong Lin."

"I am the chief tea master here, and my name is Chiba Hoshino."

The cheongsam woman knew the rules very well. She knew that it was very impolite to look at the distinguished guests with her eyes, so when her eyes fell on Lin Qian, she introduced herself to Lin Qian at the same time.

"Miss Chiba, hello."

Facing the attention of the woman in cheongsam, Lin Qian nodded slightly as a response.

The two parties exchanged a few words in the lobby of the teahouse, then Hoshino Chiba led Lin Qian and the others to the elevator inside, and finally took Lin Qian and the others directly to the top floor.

"Qianye, is there any top new tea in our teahouse recently?"

Walking out of the elevator, on the way to the tea room, Watanabe Shuichi asked Hoshino Chiba with a smile.

"Mr. Watanabe, it's better to come early than coincidentally. If you came to ask me this question some time ago, I can only answer you. We haven't had any top-level new tea here for a while, but coincidentally , Just this morning, a batch of top-quality new tea just arrived in our teahouse."

Hoshino Chiba, who was walking in front, heard Watanabe Shuichi's question from behind, she turned her head and responded with a smile.

"Qianye, then you will present this batch of top new teas to me later, and you are not allowed to hide anything from me."

As soon as Watanabe Shuu heard the words, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said hastily.

"Mr. Watanabe, don't worry."

"Who do I hide from, and I can't hide from you either."

"The little girl has to rely on Mr. Watanabe to take care of her in the future~"

Hoshino Chiba covered her mouth with a chuckle, and responded sweetly.

Lin Qian, who was walking beside Watanabe Shuichi and Hoshino Chiba, was at a loss when he heard their conversation.

Isn't it romantic?
Why did you come to the teahouse?

Looking at the posture, do you really want to drink tea?

Lin Qian was a little confused.

Walking out of the elevator, under the leadership of Hoshino Chiba, everyone walked straight to the innermost part. Finally, Hoshino Chiba brought Lin Qian and Watanabe Hideichi into a very spacious tea room.

Lin Qian roughly estimated that the area of ​​this tea room must be at least [-] square meters, and its interior decoration design is extremely luxurious.

In the center of the tea room near the door, there is a small stage of about 30 square meters. It is said that it is a stage, but it is actually a piece of pure wood about [-] centimeters above the indoor floor. In front of the small stage, about five meters away, It is a tea table.

"Director Lin, please!"

Standing at the door of the tea room, Watanabe Hideichi stretched out his right hand, begging Lin Qian respectfully.

"Please!"

Lin Qian was not polite to Shuichi Watanabe. After politely responding, he walked in first.

After Lin Qian entered the tea room, Watanabe Hideichi followed closely behind. As for the bodyguards who followed Lin Qian and Watanabe Hideichi, only one bodyguard followed them into the tea room, and the rest stayed at the door of the tea room .

"Mr. Watanabe, is it still the same?"

Before Watanabe Shuichi entered the tea room, Hoshino Chiba asked him.

"It's still the same."

Watanabe Shuu nodded in response.

"Okay, Mr. Watanabe, please wait later, I will arrange it for you."

Hoshino Chiba immediately turned and left after receiving Watanabe Shuichi's reply.

……

10 minute later.

On the tea table in the tea room, there are many fruits and dried fruits, and on the small stage directly in front of the tea table, four women are performing Japanese traditional Kabuki performances on the stage.

"Director Lin, do you know the history of Kabuki?"

Lin Qian and Watanabe Hideichi sat on both sides of the tea table. They watched the kabuki performance for a while, and then chatted again.

"I only know that kabuki is a typical folk performing art of the Japanese country. As for more, I don't know much about it."

Facing Watanabe Shuichi's question, Lin Qian shook his head lightly, and responded to him in this way.

"Kabuki originated in the early Edo period in the 17th century. Ge represents music, dance represents dance, and ki represents performance skills. There are many foreigners who often regard the ki in kabuki as the prostitutes of prostitutes, so whenever When people talk about Kabuki performances, they always think that it is a very sexual performance."

"Actually, kabuki performance is a performing art, and the most orthodox kabuki is often performed by men, which is somewhat similar to female roles in the traditional Chinese art of Peking Opera."

Watanabe Hideo explained to Lin Qian with a smile.

"Then they..."

Lin Qian, who was eating netted melon, pointed to the actors on the stage when he heard the last words of Watanabe Hideichi, his face could not help showing a little astonishment.

"Director Lin, they are all real women."

Watanabe Xiuyi saw the stunned expression on Lin Qian's face, and immediately understood Lin Qian's meaning. With a slight smile on his face, he responded to Lin Qian.

"Scared me, I thought I was wrong."

Lin Qian patted his chest and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Dong Lin, after hundreds of years of development, the most orthodox performers of kabuki are now men, but at the beginning of the development of kabuki, the performers were women. Later, because the kabuki performers were all young and beautiful girls, many samurai often fought for these girls. In the end, the Tokugawa shogunate at that time had to ban kabuki performances, and then kabuki performances gradually became popular. It became a male role."

Now that the topic has come to this point, Watanabe Shuichi once again popularized a lot of knowledge about kabuki to Lin Qian.

"That is to say, the performers of the art of kabuki are essentially gender-neutral?"

Lin Qian raised his eyebrows and asked back with some understanding.

"Yes."

"Actually, this teahouse also employs professional male kabuki performers, but I prefer to watch female kabuki performances. If Director Lin wants to watch male kabuki performances, we can change them at any time."

As soon as Shu Watanabe spoke, he raised his hand to ring the bell.

"Don't, don't!"

"I am also not interested in orthodox kabuki performances. I am the same as Chairman Watanabe, and I also like to watch this unorthodox kabuki performance. These girls dance very well, so there is no need to change."

Lin Qian quickly grabbed Watanabe Hideichi and said this to him.

"Is there really no need to change it?"

"There is no need to change it!"

"OK then."

The two looked at each other, and both couldn't help laughing.

Just as Lin Qian and Watanabe Shuichi were discussing the art of kabuki, there were a few knocks on the door of the tea room, followed by Hoshino Chiba's voice from outside.

"Mr. Watanabe, Director Lin, I have brought new tea..."
