Jinyi champion

Chapter 100

"Little boss, you have seen them too. No... problem?" Leader Li asked nervously seeing that Zhu Hao's eyes were still wandering over these people.

Zhu Hao nodded: "People are fine, it's just those outfits..."

Leader Li said without hesitation, "It's all yours."

Zhu Hao nodded again: "I also stayed with the miscellaneous workers in your theater troupe, and their wages remained the same as before, including those who sang operas, played music, and played gongs and drums. They are still the same as they were before, but they will be registered in the future. An Lu, stay here and perform."

Zhu Hao's tone was so loud that the theater troupe were surprised for a while.

What's happening here?
A child is pointing here like an adult, as if he is the new owner, but the problem is... isn't this a joke?
The woman stepped forward and asked, "My boss, I wonder if our new boss is..."

"It's the young master in front of you...Master Zhu, he will be your new master from now on, and he will take care of your food and drink expenses. If you really can't get along, he will give you a free body. Our fate is over. .”

The words of troupe leader Li will make the troupe completely blow up the pot.

Children buy theater troupes! ?

Could it be that Team Leader Li didn't want to do it anymore, just found an excuse to fool, hired someone to pretend to be the new owner, and let them go their separate ways later?

For many people, being free is wonderful, but for those apprentices and veteran musicians who are not yet able to perform on stage, it is like a bolt from the blue.

Let people live?

"Let's go, go to the government, sign the contract by the way, and come back later to arrange a new residence for you." Zhu Hao greeted.

The woman asked reluctantly: "The city of Anlu is not big, and it is not a place where merchants gather. I am afraid it will be difficult to maintain it for a long time just to sing in one place?"

Yu San smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. In short, you just know who to eat with now, and you can act in whatever you are asked to play, and you can also bring in some work?"

Everyone in the troupe looked at Yu San with wary eyes.

If they had doubts about the behavior of the new owner before, now more people are worried about their future livelihood.

Those opera singers who are capable and can find a new home at any time are secretly happy, as long as the troupe can't continue to operate, shouldn't it be dismissed?At that time, I may not even need to spend any money, and I will be free, or there will be severance pay.

……

……

Come out from the yard.

Leader Li called someone to set up a carriage, and Yu San was very excited: "Brother Hao, you still have the ability to push him to fifty taels in one go... I asked Leader Long before, and his troupe of bad plays always offered me a price." Eighty taels, he doesn't have as many people here, and the actors' singing skills and skills are quite inferior, it's just...

"Even if the troupe can't be maintained in the future and the contract is changed, we will still make money."

Zhu Hao said: "You think that troupe leader Li is stupid? If the theater troupe really can't continue to operate at all, who will take care of these people? You still have to hire someone to serve you, at most it's just a small loss...but you can dismiss the driver later. , the theatrical troupe will not move for the time being... Oh yes, I will give you another ten taels of silver here, and you can find someone to come over, and I will create a brand new way of persuasion."

"Convincing the way?"

Yu San was stunned.

Zhu Hao said unhappily: "It's the abbreviation of costumes, makeup and props. Use your brains. If you want to open a new show, how can you do it without some new outfits?
"The first performance of the new troupe, I must make it a sensation in the whole city. From then on, not only the local Anlu, but also the troupe in the whole Huguang area, as long as it comes to singing, they must follow our rules. What we have to do is The industry leader... get it?"

Yu San was stunned for a while, as if he understood, but when he thought about it carefully, his head was full of mud.

However, he understood one thing, this little boss had a lot of ambitions.

I used to be the largest bookstore in Anlu, but now I want to be the largest theater troupe in Huguang... Oh no, the most famous theater troupe?
Zhu Hao looked up at the sky at forty-five degrees, and said with emotion: "I can see that no matter what kind of business you are in, you are sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. If you can't make money, a business like Mr. Li's bleak business can only fail in the end." It's over...well, hurry up and make arrangements for registration."

Yu San no longer knew what words to use to talk to Zhu Hao. Not only were the two parties not on the same channel, they were not even considered a country.

The only thing he can do is to follow Zhu Hao's footsteps closely, hoping that Zhu Hao can drink some soup while eating meat.

……

……

Zhu Hao was going back to Xingwang Mansion that day, but because he bought a troupe, had to rehearse a new play, and had to arrange accommodation for the troupe, he decided not to go back that night.

Everything is being implemented in an orderly manner.

The contract was transferred to Zhu Hao's side, signed and pledged, and the government arranged for registration.

Afterwards, the theater troupe, young and old, moved to the new residence in the city under Yu San's arrangement. The courtyard was rented by Yu San, and there were two entrances to the courtyard. Three people lived there, while troupe stars and musicians had their own separate rooms.

By the time the outfits were arranged, it was almost sunset.

Only then did Zhu Hao reappear with Yu San.

people called together.

"Let's get to know each other formally. I'm your new boss. My surname is Zhu. You can call me whatever you want. In the future, you don't need to perform those old dramas anymore. You will all perform new dramas for me."

Zhu Hao said, "Okay, each of you come out and introduce yourself, tell me your name and what your specialty is, so that I can order you to do things."

The troupe members were very reluctant, but they still came out to inform them of their name and director, as well as some simple background.

Only then did Zhu Hao know that there were two couples in the theater troupe. They both had sons, but none of the sons were in the local area. One of the couples had a daughter under their knees. She was the eight-year-old girl who had signed the contract of sale, and her father was named Song. , no big name, small name bottle.

Le Ji also favored sons over daughters, and had no hope of having a daughter, so he joined his parents in opera troupes, learned skills, signed a contract of prostitution, and had a meal with his master, without the family paying for them.

My son is different. Although he still has to learn opera, as long as he has some ability, he can rely on musicians. There are special people in his hometown to teach, just like studying.

Gong Yeling, whose contract expired in one year, came out: "The new play needs a good copy, where can I find a good copy?"

Zhu Hao looked around with a smile on his face.

Zhu Hao had discovered before that there were a lot of weird surnames among the people in Le Ji. After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, not all the ethnic groups of the Yuan Dynasty in the Central Plains returned to the desert. Many of them were classified as Le Ji, as punishment for enslaving the Han people.

The Yuan surname must be changed to the Han surname. In the absence of a genealogy, you don’t have to choose whatever surname you want. People in the government will not easily give you a surname. Not in a hurry?Why do you share my last name?

In the end, they could only change their surnames to some more partial surnames to avoid clan oppression, and finally they became accustomed to passing them down from generation to generation.

Yu Sandao: "The new play is written by our young master himself, you don't have to worry about it so much, just rehearse the play with peace of mind."

The old musician of the theater troupe often prints it out and asks: "This is our little master, and the big master is..."

Zhu Hao smiled and said: "You don't have a big boss. If you insist on saying yes... maybe it's my mother, but I just used the little pocket money I earned to buy a theater troupe to operate, so don't disturb my mother. You guys are good!" Rehearsal, pay attention when performing, I won't let you go out to entertain guests...

"Wait for you to go in with me to read the new book. You only have one night. You should seize this opportunity and ask questions if you don't understand. When I am away, it is because three... this is the shopkeeper who is in charge of your daily life. , if you have any needs, you can tell him directly, and if he can't solve it, then come to me."

Yu San immediately straightened his back.

Before, he was only in charge of a bookstore, but now he is the leader of this big theater troupe in name, and more than [-] men and women hang out with him, and he feels a sense of accomplishment when he thinks about it.

But why do you always feel that the troupe is full of guard against him?

……

……

It was not until the next morning that Zhu Hao returned to the palace.

When entering the palace, the guards all looked at him curiously, because Zhu Hao was the most diligent one in the past, and he always came back a day early. Even the palace let Zhu Hao and Jinghong go home one night before the five-day holiday. Zhu Hao was too active and gave them more time to spend with their families.

Who knew that Zhu Hao had changed his gender this time? !
Zhu Hao packed up his things, and saw Lu Song brought Jinghong back from the cafeteria... Jinghong actually returned to the palace one night earlier.

Asking Jinghong to go into the house to pack things, Lu Song called Zhu Hao to the yard, found a secluded corner and asked, "Why didn't you come back yesterday?"

Zhu Hao said: "Usually I am ahead of time, but this time I didn't. Is it my fault? I just returned to the palace according to the normal time."

Lu Song frowned: "You know what I'm talking about."

Zhu Hao shook his head and sighed softly: "Of course I know what you're talking about... Do you think I stayed one more night to discuss matters with Jin Yiwei or the family members? Actually no, I just bought a theater troupe and prepared to Open a new play...

"Don't look at me with this kind of eyes like a prisoner... I said a long time ago that I don't have the confidence to stay in the palace. How about being so positive?"

Lu Song stared at Zhu Hao like a torch, and asked sharply: "That is to say, in the future, you will spy on information for outsiders and sell the interests of the palace?"

"Hey, don't speak so badly, okay? Lu Dianzhan, even if you don't regard us as people on the same boat, don't hurt each other, okay? I have such a good relationship with the princess and the prince, and I know There is Qianlong in Xingwang's mansion, why should I sell the mansion to make myself unhappy?"

Just as he was talking, someone came in from outside, it was Lu Bing, Lu Song's son.

Seeing his son coming, Lu Song stopped questioning Zhu Hao and left with a gloomy face.

Lu Bing ran over, grabbed Zhu Hao's hand, and said happily: "Zhu Hao, I came to look for you with the two princes yesterday. I haven't seen you for a long time. Why do you come back now?"

It was only then that Zhu Hao knew that the palace had lifted the restrictions on Zhu San and Zhu Si's contact with him, and they would usually come to the West Courtyard to play with him, which further showed that he was gradually integrating into the Xingwang Palace.
