Help!The icy grandpa has moved my heart

Chapter 161 Take your place
The place where the stage play is performed is in a palace in the city.

This palace is left over from the remnants of the previous dynasty, and there is a spacious courtyard inside, which can accommodate many people.

It is said that when the house was ransacked, the gold, silver and jewelry copied from it were carried by the Imperial Forest Army for several hours, which shows its corruption.

Later, the palace was reduced to an entertainment venue.

It is also a means of humiliation, no matter how high you used to be, now your venue has become an entertainment venue, and any major events on weekdays are held here.

There are also some classic operas, which are often held in it, as long as you pay the money, you can go in and listen to the opera.

But if you want to go in and hold an event, you have to follow the procedure, which is first-come, first-served.

Qu Fulan made a reservation one month in advance, and only made an appointment on August [-]th.

Early in the morning, before dawn, she went out to get busy.

When going to the venue, watching the stage, watching the makeup of stage actors, watching public security and other issues, it is necessary to ensure that every link is well known.

In ancient times, there was no electricity, and it was impossible to engage in night activities like in the 21st century. They could only be done during the day and ended before dark.

It takes a long time to prepare in advance, so it started in the afternoon.

In addition to rehearsals for the actors, you have to go through the opening music as well.

There are no speakers in this era, but the erhu, pipa, chime bells, Xiao, flute, se, qin, xun, sheng and drum, etc., are used properly, and the effect is just as good.

Of course, all the preparations are for the performance of the final stage.

So actors are still the most important.

Of course, in this era, actors are called actors, and it's okay to call them actors.

As for Tang Seng's master and apprentice, it is also strange to say.

The Drifting Monk was played by Pei Shizi, the soldier who acted stupidly at the beginning and then counterattacked when he told Mrs. Pei the story about the training ground.

He is dull, just suitable to play the taciturn Drifting Monk, and with the corresponding makeup, it fits the image on TV very well.

As for Tang Seng, he was found directly from the temple. His life experience is similar to that of Tang Seng in the book. He was abandoned when he was a child, and then picked up by people in the temple to raise him. With a round head and a round face, he is a standard monk. temperament.

Zhu Bajie needs to be played by a lazy person. Basically, his temperament is in line. After all, this character image is made up and has a pig nose. It doesn't matter what he looks like.

But in fact, the actor who plays Zhu Bajie is also a white-faced scholar.

The most important thing is Monkey King Monkey King. This core character not only needs to be consistent with the character image, but also has great skills. He can play with the golden cudgel and flip and fly in various ways.

For this character, Qu Fulan screened many people before and after, and finally settled on it. After putting on makeup, he looks very similar.

In fact, Sun Wukong can wear no makeup, wear a suit similar to the one he got from the Dragon King of the Sea, and wear two beards on his head. If he plays well, the audience will accept it.

But after all, it is the first time to show up, and it is very important to match the makeup of the TV series.

After a rehearsal, we checked the process again. It was almost noon, and everyone had a hasty meal, and then began to take their seats.

At this time, ticket sales have already started outside the door.

A ticket ranges from 30 tael to [-] [-] taels, divided into front, middle and back positions. The better the position, the more expensive it is, and only the nobles can afford it. As long as other ordinary people can come in, [-] tael or [-] taels of silver is also acceptable. .

I may not accept it at ordinary times, but most people will be more tolerant to themselves during holidays, and spend a little money on things that are willing to be happy.

Perhaps it was due to the sufficient publicity, coupled with the popularization of listening to books for a month, Journey to the West basically spread in the capital city, and its popularity is very high.

When Qu Fulan went out in a carriage, he saw a long queue, all of whom came from various places in the city.

There are several groups of people who sell tickets. One or two taels is one area, and ten taels, 20 taels, and 30 taels is another area.

Now it seems that one or two is the most number.

Everyone knows that the number of tickets is limited, first come, first served, otherwise you can’t get cheap tickets, you have to buy tickets for 30 taels and [-] taels. The location is naturally better than [-] taels, but it’s too expensive and some people can’t bear it. Consumption does not come.

Followed by ten taels to twenty taels, the number of people is less than half of that of one or two taels, but this is just the beginning, and people will come over one after another.

As for those above 30 taels, it is a special position, no need to line up, just say hello to buy a ticket.

Holding such an event will inevitably gather many people, which involves security issues, requiring many guards to come forward to maintain order.

According to the cards of singing opera in the past, you can go to the government to apply for protection, and the government will always agree. Why don't you agree to things that can make money for nothing?

What's more, holding such an event still needs to pay taxes, which originally required government personnel to come and supervise.

Qu Fulan also followed this procedure, otherwise it would not be realistic for Prince Pei to mobilize his secret guards.

She has reserved a place for the Pei family, and Prince Pei's is naturally included, but whether he will say for sure, after being his maidservant for so long, Qu Fulan has witnessed how busy the emperor's celebrities are, Basically, every day, the dragon sees the head and sees the end.

Ask him whether he will come or not, and he can't tell for sure, after all, everything depends on whether the emperor has ordered it. If there is an order on the same day, it is also uncertain.

For such a big event, in addition to performances, Qu Fulan also asked people to sell all the delicacies in "Shaoxiancao Milk Tea" and "Huajian Fu".

Anyway, looking at personal consumption, you can consume what you can afford, and you can choose.

Such a large flow is not in vain.

At three o'clock, the ticket sales began to end, and people went in and took their seats one after another.

Mr. An, Mr. Chu, Mr. Wei, and Mr. Ge also came to sit early. They are all young. Who wouldn't like Journey to the West?

In addition, the Xiao family also came.

After all, this event did not explicitly say that it was held by the Pei family, nor did it prevent anyone from coming. It only said that it was a stage play of Journey to the West, which naturally attracted many people.

After Ji Nishang saw the flyer, she only felt that her cognition had been impacted again.

She was very confident in the past, but she only felt that she was delayed due to her bad background and her lack of talent.

As a result, after arriving in the capital city, he managed business for his aunt, not only failed, but also suffered a big loss.

The last time the milk tea shop opened, she had already read the leaflets of the opposite milk tea shop, and it was already a big shock at that time, but at that time her business was good, so she didn't put it on her body.

It wasn't until the business of the milk tea shop opposite turned over that she realized the importance of the leaflet.

When she was about to imitate, some stage play flyer came again, this time the flyer drew lifelike characters.

Ji Nishang had a hunch that this event would be a success.

As a businessman, she knows the importance of learning, and naturally she will not miss watching such an event.
