Datang romantic little landlord

The nobles who were invited by Li Wangyou came to the scene one after another at this time, but they were also surprised to see that the theater door was closed.

But the people were not in a hurry, they got off the carriages and horses on the street, met with Li Wangyou, the master, and chatted in small groups and waited after meeting each other.

Cheng Yaojin was a little impatient, and yelled at Li Wangyou: "Ziyou, why don't you open the door? You are the host's treat, how can you keep the guests out of the door?"

Li Wangyou quickly explained with a smile: "Uncle Cheng, don't worry, my nephew is also waiting for the saint to cut the ribbon for the opening."

Naturally, Cheng Yaojin didn't know what a ribbon-cutting was, but when he heard that he was waiting for Li Er, he could only mutter a few words in a low voice and didn't say anything more.

At this time, the Jinwu Guards with bright armor trotted into the street and drove the crowd of onlookers away from the center of the road. Naturally, everyone knew that this was His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and Li Er was about to arrive.

Sure enough, after a short wait, Li Er led Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang and others to the theater under the guard of the imperial army.

Li Wangyou hurriedly stepped forward to pay respects: "My nephew has met my uncle and aunt."

"Haha, no courtesy, no courtesy. Ziyou, why is the door of your theater still closed? But I'm not welcome?" Li Er was also in a good mood today, joking with a smile.

Li Wangyou quickly explained: "Uncle, nephew is waiting for you to cut the ribbon."

"Ribbon cutting?" Li Er was puzzled.

Li Wangyou pointed to the ribbon in front of the entrance of the theater and explained: "Uncle, you just cut the ribbon to represent the opening of the theater. My nephew wants to ask my uncle to cut the ribbon for my nephew's Tang Theater, just to please my nephew."

793 two hundred and fifty clubs

Li Er would naturally not refuse Li Wangyou's request.

This ribbon-cutting was very novel to Li Er and the nobles in Chang'an City.

Li Er was led by Li Wangyou, and walked to the ribbon in front of the gate. On this red ribbon, there was also a hydrangea ball made of red silk and satin, which was very eye-catching.

Immediately, a maid came forward with a tray, on which was a pair of shining golden scissors.

"Uncle, please use scissors later to cut this piece of red silk." Li Wangyou explained with a smile.

"Ziyou, your method is really novel." Li Er was not polite, and reached out to pick up the golden scissors.

The musicians who had been prepared on both sides immediately played cheerful music under the command of Afro, attracting the attention of all the guests.

It is not clear where the ribbon-cutting ceremony, which is a common completion and opening ceremony in later generations, originated from. Some say it originated from the launching ceremony of a new ship in Europe, and some say it originated from a shopkeeper who opened a shop in a small town in the United States. .

But in any case, there is a reason why ribbon-cutting can become popular all over the world in later generations.

The hustle and bustle in front of the Datang Theater made the nobles who were waiting here feel novel.

Under the guidance of Li Wangyou, Li Er cut the red silk with golden scissors.The group of employees in front of the theater immediately began to applaud and applaud, which also led a group of guests to applaud and applaud, and the atmosphere was full of joy.

Then, the door of the theater behind everyone slammed open, and someone behind the door ignited Li Wangyou's special explosive rod.There was a loud "cracking" sound, gunpowder smoke filled the air, and a strong smell of gunpowder flowed in the air.

Li Er and these nobles were naturally not surprised by Li Wangyou's special explosion pole, but it was different when the news fell on the ears of the audience outside the theater.

The continuous explosion of firecrackers caused the Chang'an people who were watching the excitement to be around, but they were a little frightened. The crowd kept retreating, causing some riots.

"The universe is bright and bright, the sky is bright and the sun is bright, why is there still the sound of thunder?"

"It seems to come from the Tang Theater of Uncle Hu County, what is this uncle doing?"

Fortunately, among the crowd, there were some knowledgeable ones, and immediately explained to the surrounding crowd that it was the explosive pole made by Uncle Hu Xian. The sound was like thunder, and it was very majestic.

Li Wangyou respectfully asked Li Er to unveil the theater plaque, revealing the four gold-plated characters of "Datang Theater" on the lintel of the gate.

Just looking at the distinctive Feibai style, all the guests knew that it was clearly written by a sage himself.

I am even more envious of the prosperity of Li Wangyou's holy family.Even to start a business, it is rare to find a second person in the whole world who can ask a sage to write an inscription.

After the ribbon-cutting and unveiling ceremony, Li Wangyou hurriedly invited Li Er, Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang and others into the gate of the theater. The invited guests, led by well-trained staff of the theater, filed in from the gate of the theater. enter.

But as soon as they entered the gate, including Li Er, all the big guests were stunned again. The gate actually divided into two forks, and there were male and female servants waiting here.

"Ziyou, what are you doing?" Cheng Yaojin yelled directly.

Li Wangyou said with a chuckle: "Uncle Cheng, my nephew made this theater not just a place to watch plays. If it's just that, it would be too boring. My nephew's theater has everything you need to eat, drink and have fun. For the guests It's convenient, except for the theater where you watch a play, other entertainment parts are divided into male and female parts, without interfering with each other."

Hearing what he said, Li Er and the others became interested and wanted to see what fun Li Wangyou had prepared.

But when the old rascal Cheng Yaojin heard his words, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows twice, with a lewd smile on his face: "Ziyou, are you going to grab the business of Pingkangfang?"

Li Wangyou was choked by Cheng Yaojin's words, and almost lost his breath.

Nima, this shameless old hooligan, does he think he is running some kind of romantic place?

Li Wangyou's face was dark, and he didn't bother to pay attention to this guy who didn't want Fez, so he accompanied Li Er to the male guest department of the theater.

As for Empress Changsun, Concubine Yang, and the noble ladies who came with the guests, only the beautiful boss and Afuluo will take care of them, so there is no need for him to worry about them.

Originally, in the Datang Theatre, Li Wangyou simply wanted to create a theater for watching plays.

However, when he discovered that due to the problem of sound reinforcement, the theater was not built at all, which led to the fact that only a small part of the land in Guangdefang was used to build the theater.

Li Wangyou naturally wouldn't tolerate such waste, rolled his eyes, and together with his beautiful boss, he simply turned the Datang Theater into the world's first high-end business club integrating eating, drinking and entertainment.

In addition to the small theater for performances, there is also a chess and card room for gambling and playing cards in the theater, a bathroom and sauna for soaking and relaxing, and all kinds of food and wine are available.

As for the female guests, there are more shops selling rouge and gouache, various jewelry and ready-to-wear underwear.

All in all, Li Wangyou and his beautiful boss and his parents-in-law directly turned this "Datang Theater" into a gold-selling cave for the honorable class in Chang'an City.

Today is Li Wangyou's invitation to entertain Li Er and other big guests. Naturally, there is no charge.But if these bigwigs come in again after today, they will never get out without taking out a few copper coins.

Moreover, a few copper coins can be regarded as the minimum consumption in the Datang Theater.

Only more expensive, not the most expensive!

When it comes to the items sold in those shops in the female guest department, it is estimated that many guests can get heart disease.

The most expensive of these is a silver-plated copper mirror that is as tall as a person.

This mirror, the beautiful boss priced 250 taels of gold without hesitation!

Regarding this, Li Wangyou also slandered in his heart, whoever paid 250 taels of gold to buy this broken mirror is really [-] taels!

However, Li Wangyou will soon find out that he is the two hundred and five sticks.Because of that silver mirror, it was taken away on the opening day...

Li Er led a group of civil and military officials, relatives of the emperor, and followed Li Wangyou to visit the Tang Theater. Every time he went to a special place, everyone would definitely discuss it.

Cheng Yaojin has the greatest mahjong addiction, he can't move when he comes to the chess and card room, and insists on dragging Yuchi Jingde, Qin Qiong and others to accompany him to play mahjong here.

Each of the chess and card rooms set up by Li Wangyou is a luxuriously decorated private room, served by two handsome maids.
