"Yes, Mr. Captain."
Golov and others bowed respectfully and left.
Chen Lun watched the door being closed, stood up and stretched himself.

"As the leader of the team, you have to do something..."

The next day.
Early in the morning, Chen Lun went out after eating the breakfast made by Fu Luoyin himself.
He was well dressed, a new black top hat, a high-end black suit, a felt cape, and a new pair of shoes.
Golov is not yet familiar with the city, so Chen Lun plans to spend a little money today to save big troubles.When he came to the street outside the winery, he casually summoned a rental carriage.
Amidst the coachman's gracious good-day greetings, he got into the car with a silver cane on his arm.
It was still early to start, but when the carriage arrived at the gate of the "City Garden" Grand Theater three blocks away, it was the busiest time of work.
Standing at the entrance of the slightly deserted theater, Chen Lun looked at some old signs and interior walls that had not been taken care of for a long time, and he probably knew that the business conditions here were probably not good.
"Hey sir, are you here for a show? Today there are "Freaks", "Sisters of Beast Taming" and the most fascinating "Kuwei Magic Show" on stage today!"
A thin and short man, wearing a cheap and oversized burgundy suit that didn't fit the size at all, approached Chen Lun to sell it.
His expression is very rich, trying to express how wonderful the theater is.
"Are you an employee of this theater?"
Chen Lun asked.
The little man hesitated for a moment.
"Well...cough, it's okay to put it this way, the hourly salary is ten copper kroes, and there is also a commission on tickets."
He shrugged and said in a low voice.
"How about it, sir, do you want to go in and have a look? Although it looks deserted here, the performance will definitely not let you down."
Chen Lun directly took out two silver medals and waved them in front of the other party.
"I didn't come to see the performance. You go and find the person in charge, preferably the owner of this theater... The money is yours."
"Oh, of course there is no problem, Mr. Kang Qian."
The little man opened his eyes, revealing bright eyes.
He took the money, turned around excitedly, and rushed into the theater.
After a while.
A haggard young man came out, and beside him was a tall and thin man with a mustache.
"Good morning sir, I am the proprietor of this theater, Simon Hoylin. What can I do for you?"
The young man was dressed very formally, a decent dark gray ironed suit and a red bow tie.It's just the deep dark circles under his eyes that make him look less energetic.
"Mr. Huo Yiner, I heard that the pillar performers in your theater have been poached? Tickets are getting harder to sell now, and the business is not very good."
Chen Lun showed a polite smile.
"I think I can help you."
Chapter 279 City Garden Theater
------------
Chapter 2 Eighty I Can Know a Little Magic
"can you help me?"
Huo Yiner showed doubts and frowned slightly.
As the second son of the helm of the Simon family, he has seen a lot, but he has encountered many eloquent liars.When most of these people meet, they will throw out a topic that attracts your attention, and then use superb words to invite you into the urn.
The Simon family is a business tycoon in Peacock City, second only to "Moses Voyage". His father taught him this knowledge since he was a child.
Huo Yiner looked up and down at the young man in front of him.
The other party looked about the same age as him, or even younger, with an overly handsome appearance and extraordinary temperament, which even surprised and envied him.The black outfit is very tasteful, especially the hat and the silver cane in his hand, it is almost like tailor-made.
"It doesn't look like a liar or a salesman, but this suspicion cannot be ruled out... After all, there are some liars who are very proficient in makeup and disguise, and they specifically pick on the rich and powerful."
Huo Yiner reminded himself in his heart.
"Yes, Mr. Hoyne."
Chen Lun took off his hat and stuck it to his chest, nodding slightly.
"I am the head of Jack's Circus, you can call me Jack... If we join, your theater may surpass 'Taltar' and 'Golden Rum', and become the number one big theater in Peacock City Theatre. It may even be upgraded to a higher level, and its reputation may spread to other cities.”
Huo Yiner didn't speak, and his frown deepened.
The man with the mustache beside him couldn't help but sneered.
"Are you joking? If so, I just want to say you have a good sense of humor, sir."
Chen Lun glanced at him and raised his eyebrows.
"Who is this?"
"This is Mr. Covey from our 'City Garden', the best magician in the theater, and many audiences come just for him."
Huo Yiner introduced.
Character Hu Kewei took off his hat a little proudly, twirled a hat flower in his hand, and said:
"Mr. Jack, you are really not humble. Even the Royal Drama Troupe in Wangcheng is not as loud as you... Ah ha, surpassing the other two major opera houses? Even raising it to a higher level?"
With a shake of his hand, a white dove flew out of his hat, flapped its wings and circled around, and returned to his shoulder.
After Kewei showed his hand, a disdainful expression appeared on his face.
There was a hint of vigilance in the eyes.
"I really don't know how big your circus is. For animal taming, we already have 'Sister Selina', for burlesque shows, we have 'Elf Troupe', for magic, we have me...although 'City Garden' Now we are facing a little predicament, but this is not a place where all third-rate teams can join and cheat food and drink."
Chen Lun felt this person's hostility, and it was clear in his heart.
It was a kind of exclusion of peers, plus a little protective emotion.
Huo Yiner remained silent for the time being. Although Kewei's words were a little harsh, they were what he wanted to express.
"Mr. Jack, you probably came here after seeing the job advertisement, right?"
Huo Yiner pointed to the notice on the side of the opera entrance, which said that the performance team was sincerely hired to settle in, and the treatment was favorable.
Chen Lun glanced in the direction the other party was pointing at, then looked away.
He really didn't see it.
"May I ask what 'Jack's Circus' is good at? Only then can I judge whether there is a possibility of cooperation between the two parties."
Huo Yiner's words were very euphemistic, but in fact he had some doubts about this unknown circus that he had never heard of.
"Hmm...it doesn't seem like I'm particularly good at it."
Chen Lun pondered.
Kuwait immediately sneered.
Huo Yiner on the side was also a little disappointed.
As the second son of the Simon family, like the other brothers and sisters, he was allocated a share of the family property from his father, which was actually a test.
Only when the industry develops and grows, can it be qualified to prove that it has the ability to inherit the family property and take over the "rudder" from the father.
This is a very simple method of identification, but also a cruel commercial test.
Regardless of whether you use legitimate or improper means, as long as you can grow the industry, it can more or less prove that you are an excellent leader in the business field.
At that time, when choosing the "City Garden" Opera House as the "examination paper", Huo Yiner also mixed some feelings into it.Because when he was a child, he often liked to go to his own theater to watch performances, and fell in love with it over time.
He regards the theater as his second home.
But after taking over, Huo Yiner discovered that the "city garden" was far more difficult to manage than he imagined.Compared with the industries of other brothers and sisters, it is more difficult for the opera house to develop and grow. The biggest and core problem it faces is the resident performance troupe.
No matter how exquisite and luxurious the theater’s decoration is, how comfortable the seats are, and how it is hyped, operated and promoted, what is finally presented to the audience is the performance on the stage.
Once the strength of the performing troupe is weak and the performances are not exciting enough, it will cause the theater's reputation to decline day by day, and eventually become a third-rate theater that no one cares about.
Huo Yiner's goal is very lofty, but the reality is cruel.
As the older generation of actors and performance troupes ended, and the newly recruited pillars left, the current "City Garden" is about to fall from the ranks of the three major theaters.If it weren't for the glory of the past and the barely supported reputation, I'm afraid he would have become a member of the third-rate theater.
So Huo Yiner is very anxious now, and is eager to find a performing troupe that can lead the theater to glory again.
At this time, he noticed from the corner of his eye that the young man in the black hat in front of him raised his head, and the other party showed a smile:
"Don't get me wrong, I mean, he's good at everything, so he's not particularly good at anything."
Huo Yiner couldn't help being stunned.
Kewei on the side also stiffened his smile.
Chen Lun raised his hand and whistled.
stop--
The white pigeon resting on Kewei's shoulder suddenly flew into his hand, followed the simple whistle melody, swayed from side to side in his palm, and danced.
He even cooed and sang along with the melody.
Such a fairytale scene directly made Huo Yiner's mouth open slightly, and Kewei also ignored the "betrayal" of the white dove, and his eyes widened.
"This this……?!"
But what happened next was even more shocking.
I saw a few goldfinch, blue tit and an owl flying low at the entrance of the opera house, all heard the whistle, landed on the gentleman in the black hat, and swayed together with the melody.
That scene made the two of them dumbfounded.
"Ah, I'm really sorry. Although I'm just the head of the circus and not a real performer, I do know a little bit about animal taming."
Chen Lun smiled politely.
He then waved his hand, and the birds on his body took off one after another, circling above his head, as if they were surrounding their master.
"This is just a little understanding... the skills of taming animals?!"
Huo Yiner's voice trembled slightly.
As for Kewei and the little salesman on the side, they were already sluggish and silent.
"Of course, animal taming is also very good. I'm just an apprentice who has just seen the way..."
Chen Lun's tone is gentle and his posture is very humble.
Immediately, he seemed to remember something.
"Oh, by the way, I can also do a little bit of magic."
I saw the silver cane in his hand lightly stretched out, hooked the hat in Mr. Covey's hand, and snapped his fingers.
Snapped!
I saw a white dove fluttering out of the hat, which was exactly the same as Kewei's magic just now.
But what was different was that another one flew out of the hat.
Then the third, the fourth, the fifth...
The white pigeons seemed to come out of the cage, and there were more and more white pigeons.That hat that couldn't be more ordinary is like a bottomless pit.
In the eyes of Huo Yiner and Kewei, dozens of hundreds of white pigeons directly filled the half-empty space at the entrance of the opera house.
"It's... too incredible! This can't be called magic, it's just magic!"
