Happy Little Scholar

"I heard that there is a new drama coming out of Goulan outside the city. It's called "A Chinese Ghost Story." It's better than Painted Skin. Do you want to go and watch it together?"

"Haha, I've seen it a long time ago. The theater in the city opened two days ago. It's always slower outside the city. This time I came to listen to Lao Zhaotou's talk about martial arts."

At the entrance of a tile house outside the city, two men said hello with a smile and walked in side by side.

"I want to watch "A Chinese Ghost Story", but I'm afraid I won't be able to do it today. I just came over there, and the hook bar is closed today. I'll come back early tomorrow to see it." A person who came out of it reminded him.

"Closed? Why?"

"What's going on with those people? They have money but don't make money..."

…

…

People who like to watch operas and listen to music inside and outside Fucheng were surprised to find that the recently built Goulan buildings were all closed today. Those who wanted to watch new dramas and listen to martial arts stories suddenly had no place to go. After cursing a few words, they had no choice but to go home. .

In the city, the popular Changping Street Theater also put up a sign saying it would be closed today, leaving countless people disappointed.

At this time, inside the theater, several Goulan stewards from outside the city gathered there, frowning.

"Miss Wan, it's not an option for us to close the door like this. "A Chinese Ghost Story" is very popular these days. If we don't open the door for a day, we will lose five dollars!" An old man with gray hair said with a frown.

As soon as the old man finished speaking, everyone's eyes were focused on the only woman in the room.

On the surface, Old Man Sun is in charge, but they all know that when big things happen, Miss Wan is actually the one with the most say.

Before Wan Ruoqing could speak, another old man slapped the table and said with a trembling beard: "These shady beasts, the children have finally had enough to eat, and they have bad intentions. The script cannot be handed over." , This is something more important than life. If you want to buy it with money, this is obviously a robbery! Anyway, the old man doesn’t have a few more years to live. Even if he fights for this old life, he will still be splashed with blood!"

What about blood and life? Hearing this made people panic. Wan Ruoqing said hurriedly: "Don't worry, Mr. Qian, no one wants to hand over the script. I won't give it to anyone who wants it. Mr. Sun is here to solve this matter. He will definitely not Let those people succeed."

"It's difficult..." The old man who spoke first sighed and said, "We are powerless, so how can we fight with them? Those children are still lying inside."

As soon as the old man finished speaking, everyone saw Old Man Sun walking through the back door accompanied by a young man.

"How is the injured?" The young man came over and asked straight to the point.

Everyone looked at the young man with a trace of doubt in their eyes. After taking a look at Old Man Sun, they seemed to understand a little and their expressions changed a bit.

Wan Ruoqing came over and said: "We have already called the doctor. They only suffered superficial injuries, nothing serious. One of them has two broken ribs and may need some time to recover."

Li Yi asked again: "Who did it? Have you found out?"

"They are all well-known gangsters in the city. They said that Gou Lan was on their territory and was protected by them. We should give them money as compensation. We didn't want to provoke them at first. We thought we would just give them some coppers, but we didn't expect them to open their mouths. Shi Guan also said that he would come to ask for help once a day, but Dongzi and the others only argued with them for a few words and were injured by them. "

This time it was the old man with gray hair who spoke in a very respectful tone. Seeing the attitude of Old Man Sun and Miss Wan towards this young man, they didn’t know that he was the benefactor who provided food for actors like them. Everything was told in detail.

"Why don't you report it to the official?" Li Yi looked at him and asked.

Qing'an Prefecture and even Anxi County were divided into small jurisdictions by him. Each jurisdiction has a dedicated person in charge of fighting and bullying of good people. In the past, under Zhou Xianwei, those fast-moving government officials He couldn't control it anyway. In order to fulfill the agreement with Her Royal Highness, before leaving the Yamen, he did not restrain those guys. If there was any negligence of duty or bullying of the people, Liu Yishou would make them suffer without doing anything. .

The old man shook his head and said: "You can't report it to the official. Those gangsters usually go into the government office. If they are caught, they will be locked up for a few days at most. When they come out, we will be the unlucky ones. Moreover, they were instigated by someone this time. The purpose is to make us hand over the script. We are all eating this. Those people are so cruel!"

Everyone, including Old Man Sun, looked sad.

The government will not care about the life and death of lowly actors like them. With the energy of those people, if they really want to report to the government, they will be even more unlucky.

It's hard to find hope in life, is it going to go into the abyss again?

Old man Sun's old face showed a deep reluctance, and his whole person seemed to be a little older.

Apart from Li Yi, the one who was least worried in the court was Wan Ruoqing.

Because only she knew that the person standing behind them was not just such a weak scholar. In Prince Ning's palace, in front of so many adults, she reprimanded the new scholar and offended many people. She was fine, but on the contrary Cui Yanxin and Jiang Zian have not yet been appointed by the imperial court, and their official careers have come to an end before they have even begun...

Mr. Sun and Mr. Qian were worried about the retaliation of those rogues after reporting to the police. Little did they know that the person those rogues should fear the most was him...

"Everyone, go back. Everything will return to normal. Do whatever you need to do. I will handle these things." After Li Yi spoke, everyone looked confused.

Those people will not give up until the matter is resolved. If they open the door to perform, the rogues will surely follow.

Before they could ask about their worries, a group of people suddenly rushed in from behind. The man in front of him squeezed the joints of his hands so hard that he asked excitedly: "Uncle, who are you looking for this time?" trouble?"

…

…

In the morning, the theaters and hook bars were tightly closed, and in the afternoon they opened their doors to welcome guests. There are still a few days until the New Year, and all the New Year's goods that should be bought have been bought. People who have nothing to do at home are gradually starting to There are more.

If people are idle all the time, they will get sick. Therefore, many people will find something to do for themselves during these days.

Goulan is a good place to go, especially the newly built Goulan, which attracts many people's attention.

Going to the theater is not just about watching something new. They have long been tired of watching the same old stuff. Only fresh stuff like "A Chinese Ghost Story" can please them.

Although there were two more men in the theater who seemed to have extraordinary skills, Old Man Sun was not relieved at all. He glanced at the young man who was chatting and laughing with Miss Wan and could only let out a long sigh.

So what if we can drive away those rogues? If we drive them away once, twice, can we drive them away countless times? They will always come back, but what will they do then?

Moreover, those scoundrels who are looking for trouble are not the point. Those who fell in love with the script are the ones who should feel the most headache!

Old man Sun patted his swollen head, and an arrogant laughter came over.

"Old guy, business is good. Have you raised enough ten dollars? I always keep my word. If you can come up with ten dollars, I will leave immediately and come back tomorrow."
