Chapter 76:  The Republican Millionaire

 On the fifth day of December,

everyone knows that today is the day when Boss Yan will take the stage. All Shanghai's top officials and dignitaries will get a ticket for the relationship. The

backstage of the theater troupe, one person draws eyebrows and red makeup,

9526 can't help forgetting himself It is a system, and its host is a tasker. It seems that every time the main line traverses is a miraculous development, the task is not the center of gravity.

Sure enough, its host is the most special.

When the gongs and drums sounded, the people

on the stage were expected to take the stage with a smile, but the romantic appearance of the performance was enough to overwhelm all beings.

If you are willing to take a look down the stage, I am afraid that it will make people forget it.

It's a pity that the stage is also three or four meters away from the nearest audience seat, which is not seen in other theaters, but no one dares to say anything here.

The inside of the theater is warm like spring,

but there is snow outside. Although it is in the south, the snow falls on the eaves and the ground, and it turns into water. This cold moisture also penetrates into the bone marrow,

and the clothes are not thick. The young guy, running fast as if something was urgent, and so dexterous as to avoid pedestrians, suddenly caught a glimpse of the ragged beggar in the alleyway from the corner of his eye. His pace was slightly stagnant, but he soon disappeared. .

The little beggar with frostbite on his face and ears closed his eyes and nestled in the corner of the wall. He seemed to feel snow falling into his ragged collar. He couldn't help but shrank against the wall, as if it could give him some warmth. The thin clothes can't protect against the cold at all. Suddenly he smelled a tempting scent, and couldn't help but open his eyes. It was the fast young man running in a simple cotton shirt. It was the two meat buns wrapped in oil paper in his hand that exuded the scent. Turbulent. The beggar smelled the scent and knew that this was the owner of the fat bun shop, because he couldn't help drooling every time he passed by.





The young man showed his white teeth and smiled coldly, "Let's eat." The

beggar took the buns and said with a heavy head, "Thank you, uncle. Thank you, uncle."

Then he bit into the meat bun and ate it hungrily. .

The young man smiled and looked at the beggar with gentle eyes. Not only did he wear a thin layer of cotton coat, he also kept an inch, and he didn't even wear a winter hat. He was a little maverick among the well-wrapped pedestrians. The slightest wealth is not obvious.

When the beggar finished eating, he asked, "How old are you."

"Five or six." The beggar can't remember, as if he's just staying in his memory. There used to be an old beggar who took him with him. However, the old beggar's grandfather died before winter came, and he couldn't rob the people in the beggar's den, so he could only stay here.

The young man touched his head and smiled, "Come with me." The

beggar opened his ignorant eyes. The old beggar's grandfather said that if you don't walk with people casually, it's probably a slapstick, but this elder brother gives His fragrant steamed buns and his big hands on his head are so warm.

The beggar nodded.

Young people exposed smile bigger, put a hand beggar in his arms, hearty laughs, "rest assured that the future will not go with me hungry stomach."

"due to read the capital put the night, Looking at thousands of gates as picturesque, playing and laughing. Tengcheluopa, where you meet, you have a dark dust and a horse. The years are also, but the old feelings are declining. Clear the omissions and move, fly back, return from the dance. Stop it." The

guests were full,

and they were fascinated. There were men and women in Tsing Yi on both sides of the stage, as well as on the three floors of the audience seats. They seemed to be vigilant, but also to prevent someone from watching the show and getting too crazy and rushing to the stage. .

Qi'er was a little worried about this big brother who said that he would not let him hungry in the future. He didn't look like he was very wealthy. He would definitely eat less in the future so that his kind big brother would not hate him.

The kind big brother brought him to a very beautiful place. There were many beautiful lights and flowers hanging outside, but the big brother just looked at the closed red door and scratched his cheeks for a while, and then he came with him. Outside the wall.

"Be obedient, close your eyes." Although Qi'er didn't know what the elder brother was going to do, he closed his eyes obediently. Suddenly, he was dizzy and the cold wind blew his face. He couldn't help but open his eyes. I found myself flying.

The big brother is holding him and flying.

The young man is still as light as a swallow even if he is holding a child, as if flying over the wall, easily flipping over it, let alone practice dozens of times.

However, before he was happy for two seconds, he heard a familiar and cold voice, "Duan Fei."

Turning his head to see someone who seemed to have been waiting for him, Duan Fei squeezed out a pleasing smile, "Has the play already begun? ? "

wearing a jacket tucked inside a white gown, wearing gold-rimmed glasses smiling young man seems to actually bite Yin Cece," you say. "

***

methodically commanded to send the guests leave is two A girl under ten years old, she also wore a blue cloth dress. The slight difference was that an elegant orchid was embroidered on the chest of the short placket, and she combed short hair. Although she did not apply powder, she still had a beautiful appearance. If it appears in a crowd, it is also extremely eye-catching.

Whether it's a high-ranking person or a play idiot who is reluctant to leave, she can arrange it properly and handily.

And everyone who came here to watch the theater knew that Boss Yan never called her curtain, and the fans usually only saw her on the stage.

After the guests were all delivered, the girl in Tsing Yi was a little relaxed. Seeing the young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses came over, she knew, "Duan Fei is back?"

Ji Shao's face was dark, and this guy Duan Fei had a temperament. I was always restless and liked to run around. I said that I was going to be there before the start of the play, but I was late again. This time I brought a child back.

"I made a special calculation for the time to arrive this time." Duan Fei argued for himself in a low voice, but withdrew from Shang Ji Shao's black face, he continued to be ridiculed by Ji Shao and Qiu Ling, Qiu Ling, It's the girl in Tsing Yi.

"What's the matter with that kid?" Although Ji Shao had already guessed it, Ji Shao still wanted to hear Duan Fei's own explanation.

Duan Fei originally slumped to listen to the training, his eyes sparkling when he heard this, "Sell him to follow us, I look pleasing to the eye, I want to recognize him as a younger brother."

Ji Shao's mouth twitched slightly, this kid really wanted to say something. .

I wanted to hang Duan Fei to worry about the meeting and ask him to think about whether to send it to the orphanage or stay, but he didn't expect Duan Fei to directly beg Qing Sister.

Yan Fengqing is also the master of the troupe, the person they respect most.

"It's okay to stay." Yan Fengqing was unexpectedly easy to talk.

Duan Fei's eyes brightened when she heard it.

Even if Yan Fengqing removed her makeup , she wore a pair of phoenix eyebrows and a three-point smile. Even if she didn't speak, she could see people's hearts beating, which is so good. appearance.

Only Yan Fengqing said lightly, "But you brought the people back, so I will teach you to take them with you in the future, remembering that you have to take them wherever you go."

Duan Fei suddenly suffered a bitter face, but the others laughed, even cold. Ji Shao, with a frosty face, raised the corners of his mouth slightly. With Yan Fengqing's words, Duan Feixiu wanted to run around again, waiting for Duan's nanny with children to live.

Ji Shao taught him, "Leaving people behind is not a matter of a word. You must be raised by someone else, or you might as well send them to the orphanage."

Duan Fei obediently listened to the training, and said to Yan Fengqing again, "Sister Qing , I know."

In fact, everyone also knows why Duan Fei wanted to keep this child. In fact, many of the people here are orphans taken in by Yan Fengqing, but like Ji Shao and Qiu Ling, they were sensible when they came to the troupe. The governor is now, and he even knows where his past family members are and where is their hometown.

When Duan Fei met Yan Fengqing, he was the same as this beggar, and he was about this age, so he felt the same.

It was because they were lucky that they met Sister Qing, who was taken in and taught by her, and sent them to school.

Among them, Ji Shao, the best student, was sent to study abroad by Sister Qing. However, when he came back, he unexpectedly rejected whether it was a job at a foreign bank or an opportunity to enter the government. Instead, he stayed in the theater and worked as an accountant.

At that time, he was still serious and honest, "Sister Qing is missing a billing room here, and I happen to be on top."

Only Qiu Ling knew that before Sister Qing did not agree, Ji Shao had sweaty palms and was very nervous.

And Ji Shao is not the only one who feels like this. Even though Yan Fengqing did not adopt them in return, who is really willing to leave.

***

Yan Fengqing, that is, Xiao Han who crossed again, the client is the daughter of a down-and-out troupe leader, that is, Yan Fengqing, her wish is to keep the troupe, her father's life's hard work.

When Xiao Han passed through, Father Yan had few days to live, and the troupe was unable to make ends meet. When Father Yan passed away, I was afraid that he would owe a lot of debts. After Xiao Han reorganized the troupe, he used other ways to source and stabilize the troupe. Finance, and then followed Yan's father to learn opera.

There are really no good seedlings. The previous pillars ran away early, and Xiao Han had to come by himself. The original wish was that the troupe could exist so that her father's lifelong efforts would not be lost. At least she had to be famous and find a successor. People.

Xiao Han's learning ability is not bad, and even his voice can be changed by heart. Yan father thinks that he has eyes but no knowledge of imperial jade. He didn't realize that his daughter had such a talent in opera. He just saved Xiao's life for only six months. Letter on stage.

And the day she came on stage was also the day of fame.

Xiao Han is really more interested in learning. She has seen acting and singing in modern times, but she has no feelings. On the contrary, she likes to sing. Dake waited until the troupe became famous to recruit talents, retired to the behind-the-scenes boss, and encouraged others to act as an actor.

As early as five years ago, when Yan Jiaban became the number one theater in Shanghai, the task was completed.

At that time, the accumulated points had reached a certain value. I heard that the system could be upgraded, so Xiao Han immediately upgraded the points to 9526.

"Host, you can also open the mall and buy the skills and items you want." Although 9526 also wanted to upgrade, he did not forget to consider it for the host.

Xiao Han said indifferently, "No, you can upgrade."

"Host." 9526's eyes were moved by tears.

The corner of Xiao Han's mouth twitched slightly. She really didn't need it, and she was not interested in the things in the mall.

The 9526, which has completed the update, is quite expansive. "Host, I can play ten systems one by one."

Xiao Han: "...You're happy."

***The

backstage of the theater troupe, there are also many gifts from fans. There are precious things like gold, ingenious treasures from all over the world, and several flower baskets that fold banknotes into patterns. After Qiu Ling saw it, the corners of her mouth twitched, so that when all of them were opened, her hands could cramp.

She brought honey water for throat and warm towels.

Xiao Han, now Yan Fengqing, exclaimed to 9526, "Sure enough, girls are the most intimate."

Among these people, Ji Shao is the most shrewd, but his temper is too bored. Everything is hidden in his heart, Duan Fei Wugong. He learned the best, but he was too free, but it was normal. He was the youngest. Don't look at a tall and strong man, he was actually only seventeen years old. This is also the reason why Xiao Han didn't hold him down, what he wanted to do at a young age.

As for Ji Shao's temperament, he has always been more calm than Duan Fei.

The most considerate is Qiu Ling. Although she is not as good as Duan Fei in martial arts and Ji Shao in reading, she is the big butler of the theater troupe. He takes care of everything in an orderly manner.

Just like this performance, Yan Fengqing is only one of dozens of times on stage, but Qiu Ling is extremely cautious, treating it as a grand performance for Qing Jie's return to Shanghai, and everything is arranged perfectly.

It was also arranged that everyone had to be guarded by the troupe. Duan Fei was also severely trained because he was late and missed it. He knew that he was wrong and did not dare to refute it.

In fact, Qiu Ling and Ji Shao all knew that although the troupe was passed down from the younger sister's father's generation, it was only an interest for the younger sister to take the stage to perform, and the troupe had long since relied on income from singing.

Even if it is Rijin Doujin, Yan Fengqing is not worried about it.

And when they met Yan Fengqing, she was no longer an ordinary person. They were all children of hard-working people, struggling to live, and even compared to Duan Fei, who was a beggar, she was not much better.

Yan Fengqing only said, "I still lack a handyman in my theatrical troupe, do you want to come."

Qiu Ling always remembered this sentence. At that time, they didn't dare to call Sister Qing to get closer to her like they do now. Yan Fengqing was both grateful and respectful, and only dared to cry the young lady respectfully.

Said it was a handyman, but they never let them do heavy work. At least before practicing martial arts, they only served tea, handed water, and cleaned the table.

Compared to how well they did their jobs, the lady seemed to be more dissatisfied with their illiterate bodies and weak chickens.

Over the years, the longer I stayed by her side, the more I understand how powerful she is, and the more I feel that Sister Qing is unfathomable. It seems that no matter what kind of things are easy for her.

It's ridiculous that they replied when they were young, and they will be able to protect Sister Qing and repay her kindness.

But she didn't want Yan Fengqing to never need their reward, and she didn't need their protection either. But Qiu Ling Ji Shao and the others still wanted to stay and stay with Sister Qing.

Even if the theatrical troupe is only Yan Fengqing's interest, they are willing to do their best to make Sister Qing happy.

What they didn't know was that when Yan Fengqing adopted them, they sighed in the troubled times. This fashion is in a state of scattered and ununified government, with warlords separate and independent. Although there is no foreign trouble, the people's life is naturally not as good as during the Taiping period, like Qiu Ling Jishao Duan Fei also has many orphans.

When Xiao Han just wore it, he brought some emotions from his previous life, and he was used to worrying about the country and the people.

This honey water should be tuned by Qiu Ling, and her cooking skills are getting better and better.

Qiu Ling curled her eyebrows when she saw Sister Qing smile at her.

"Sister Qing, what do you want to eat tonight?"

Yan Fengqing smiled, " Just light."

"It's better to eat fish. I'll let Duan Fei go fishing some fish in the river." Qiu Ling was very satisfied with her arrangement.

As for Duan Fei who wants to fish in the river in the winter, who cares?

It's okay for him to swim back and forth in the river for seven or eight laps anyway.

That night, the people in the building had a full fish feast. Duan Fei caught seven or eight barrels of fish, and all of them were fat and tender.

As early as when the child came to Yanjialou, he was taken to take a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and applied medicine to the frostbite on his body. Duan Fei also came to Yan Fengqing for him, begging sister Qing to give him a name.

Yan Fengqing dipped his fingertips with rice wine and wrote three words on the table, "Since I came here in winter, I was lucky enough to meet you, so I call it Lonicera, whatever your last name, Duan Lonicera."

The second day of his debut. News is published in major newspapers. The

Yanjia Theater is the most prestigious theater troupe in Shanghai, and Yan Fengqing, the boss of Yan, is the number one actor in the south.

She has not had a stage name until she has studied opera, but after she became famous, she was dubbed the "Phoenix Emperor", which is the emperor of the opera.

Not only in Shanghai, but also in the north and south of the country, there are fans of her. Yesterday, many people bought air tickets and came to Shanghai to see Fenghuangfanghua. Who makes Yan Fengqing appear on stage in a handful of times every year. This year, she will only play in Peking. Two games.

Her fans would rather spend a lot of money than buy tickets.

Even if Boss Yan is a low-key person and rarely reveals her presence, the fans treat her as much as they like. Yan Fengqing first studied Huadan and Tsing Yi. After becoming famous, he visited many opera masters in Beiping and Shanghai to ask for advice. Waiting for life, she is so talented that she has nothing to do with her.

I stayed in Beiping for more than half a year this year, and I was invited by the great Northern Opera circles.

Yan Fengqing learned from the best of each family and became a school of her own, but she herself didn't like to take theatrical troupe to run around. Except for occasional studies in art and education, she stayed in Shanghai, so theatrical fans in other places wanted to see her on stage. difficult.

"If you don't open for three years, you can eat for three years." Duan Fei couldn't help sighing as he saw the income of this day, as punishment, he lays hands on Ji Shao.

Although Duan Fei had a headache while studying, but Yan Fengqing set the standard for knowing the law, literacy and hyphenation, and proficiency in arithmetic.

The popularity of Chinese opera at this time is hard to imagine. Well-known opera troupes can also make money every day, and Yan Jialou is more than just Doujin. Duan Fei weighed his wife's book. With his temperament that can't keep money, it takes about a year to save a ticket.

I can't help but sigh again that there are so many rich people watching theaters.

How could he not learn how to sing in the first place.

If Ji Shao heard what he was thinking in his heart, he would probably laugh at his daydreaming. It wasn't that he hadn't tried to hang his voice back then, that drake's voice could scare people away.

***

"Sister Qiuling, the flower giver is here again." The kid outside the door raised his voice and called out.

Just as Qiu Ling wanted to move, he was stopped by Ji Shao. He pushed his eyes on the bridge of the nose, and said slowly, "You don't need to tell Sister Qing, I'll take care of it."

Qiu Ling said . He pouted, "I didn't intend to tell Sister Qing that the weather is so cold, Sister Qing never likes to go out."

Ji Shao walked in the snow in a white gown, standing tall and upright, she was really pretty.

However, Qiu Ling had only one thought, "

Quickly close the door, Ji Shao, this bastard doesn't even remember to close the door, I'm almost cold to death." The girl next to him immediately went to bolt the door, and went back to the fire to join Qiu Ling to be curious. Asked, "Sister Qiu Ling, this is the number one."

Qiu Ling thought for a while, "Let's be the ninth one."

Become famous, naturally there are more troubles, such as chasing from Shanghai to Peking, and then from Peking to Shanghai. , Young Master Su who gave the flowers for three months. I came back from studying abroad last year. Within a few days of arrogance, I accompanied his mother to Yanjialou to watch a scene.

This is what he said himself.

Every time I personally come to send flowers, whether it is wind or rain, frost, snow, and heat without interruption, as for Qiu Ling and the others, if I

see more, I won't be moved. He is not the first person to do this, and there is even worse. Bigger, more moving.

At the entrance of Yanjialou, the wind was bitterly cold.

The young man in a suit looked very suave, holding flowers in his hand, shivering with cold, and accompanied the young man next to him, but he refused to leave, and there was nothing written on his body. The word infatuation.

When Young Master Su saw Ji Shao, he immediately greeted him, "Miss Yan still doesn't want to see me?"

Ji Shao showed a reserved smile, "Master Su..."

There have been reports of crazy movie fans before, but Qiu Ling and Ji Shao have already sent these people very experienced, and they learned from the son of Lang who had gone to the northwest to become a pilot when the young sister talked about life.

But this year I also sent a letter saying that Ms. Yan was invited to play in the Northwest. I heard that I was mixed with the major.

But he thinks too much. Yan Fengqing is not interested in going to such a desolate place in the northwest.

Ji Shao succeeded in fooling Young Master Su to change his ideals in life, making him better before coming to pursue idols. He did not rush back to the warm house with charcoal fire, but waited at the door for a while.

Until an eye-catching servant came over, holding a brocade box and a famous post in his hand, he bowed his head respectfully and said, "This is my grandfather's apocalypse on behalf of the young master."

Ji Shao took it and waited for the person to leave. Snorted: "What a silly boy."
