Nuclear Warlord

Chapter 398 I'm Only Interested in Money

Emperor Qianwu was finally convinced.

Although she still had a grudge against Li Jianye's role as a monkey, she was no longer as resistant as before, and even Empress Murong felt much better.

But it was her son who was beaten after all. Empress Murong wiped away her tears and said, "Jianye, you can't be so irritable in the future. Why don't you give your father a good explanation?"

Her words seemed to be a reference to Li Jianye, but in fact she also meant to blame Emperor Qianwu for beating people without asking questions. Emperor Qianwu couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.

Li Jianye said with an aggrieved look: "Then it's up to the father to give the son a chance. He beats the son when he comes up and doesn't even have a chance to say anything."

Emperor Qianwu laughed dryly and said: "It is true that I have wronged you, don't take it to heart."

Li Jianye muttered: "Do you dare, my son?"

Emperor Qianwu pretended that he didn't hear anything and changed the subject: "What's next about making a big fuss in the Heavenly Palace? When will it be performed?"

Li Changfeng smiled and said: "That will take a few days. The first episode will continue to be performed in the theater starting tomorrow. After spending so much time and energy, how can we not make some money?"

"You bastard, you are getting better at making money every day!"

……

In this way, Li Changfeng turned danger into safety.

Li Changfeng stayed in the palace for a long time before leaving. Emperor Qianwu also stayed in the palace. Queen Murong and others also liked this place very much and were naturally overjoyed.

At the same time, Feng Quji's housekeeper also returned to the mansion.

Feng Quji had already woken up and was a little curious about the performance, so he called the butler over and asked, "What was performed today?"

The butler's cheeks turned red with excitement, and he began to dance and narrate.

"Sir, it's such a pity that you didn't go! You didn't see that there are mountains, water and people moving on a piece of white cloth, and His Highness the Eleventh Prince plays a monkey..."

Hearing this, Feng Qu sat up quickly with a look of disbelief on his face: "His Royal Highness Li Jianye plays a monkey?!"

The housekeeper nodded heavily: "Yes, it is a monkey, but this is no ordinary monkey, it is the first of its kind..."

As the butler narrated the plot, Feng Quji's eyes became more shocked and full of curiosity. He quickly asked: "Will the show continue tomorrow?"

"Let's act! In the theater built by His Highness the Ninth Prince!"

……

A situation like this occurred that night not only in Feng Quji's mansion, Ye Qingcang's mansion, but also in the homes of other dignitaries and common people.

All the people who had seen it, after returning home, were all excited and dancing to introduce what they saw to their family, relatives and friends.

The film's form of expression is already shocking, and coupled with its unique and attractive story, it immediately arouses strong curiosity among all those who have not seen it.

Many people decided that they must go and see it the next day.

Even many people who have watched it want to watch it a second time, especially the short movie at the beginning, which is really amazing.

That night, many people in the capital were so excited that they could not sleep all night.

Day two.

Li Jianye put on makeup carefully, covering the area damaged by Emperor Qianwu's belt and continued to perform. Emperor Qianwu did not go to watch this time, but sent people to investigate the public's reaction to Li Jianye's performance as the Monkey King.

The result was unanimous praise, and some even regarded Li Jianye as an idol. No one scolded him, which made Emperor Qianwu's last grudge disappear.

Another thing also surprised Emperor Qianwu.

Li Changfeng sells tickets at the theater, and one ticket costs one or two silver!
Even though it was so expensive, it was still hard to get a ticket, and there were even cases of ticket reselling, selling for dozens of taels of silver each, but the supply still exceeded demand.

The theater built by Li Changfeng had a total of 9000 seats. There were five performances a day, and the total income was [-] taels of silver.Emperor Qianwu was shocked when he heard this number.

make money!

It's so lucrative!
Emperor Qianwu regretted not joining the previous one.

Li Changfeng followed the model of selling movie tickets in his previous life. The ticket price was higher when it first came out. Later, more people saw it and the popularity gradually decreased, so he lowered the ticket price.

The capital has a large population, and Li Changfeng makes a lot of money.

After seven days of continuous screening, almost everyone who was willing to pay to see it had already seen it. Li Changfeng ordered the show to stop and began to prepare for the filming of the second episode.

The second episode is the climax and everyone is looking forward to it.

Then Li Changfeng released the news that Emperor Qianwu would also participate in the performance, which immediately caused a sensation in the entire capital and pushed "The Journey to the West" to a climax.

From the rich and powerful to ordinary people, everyone is discussing this story crazily.

It was already late winter, and the capital was already freezing cold.

A huge fleet arrived at the Grand Canal outside the capital. It was Benjamin who had made a lot of money from the German Empire.

This time he was dressed even more richly, even the pipe in his hand was made of gold, and all ten fingers were covered with rings inlaid with precious stones.

He was dressed like a nouveau riche for fear that others would not see that he was rich.

"Oh, that bastard Jack has followed His Excellency Archbishop Adrian to Daqian for so long, and he doesn't know how he is doing?"

"Presumably Bishop Adrian has spread the Lord's glory all over the capital, right? It's really exciting!"

Benjamin looked expectantly in the direction of the capital, his eyes flashing with gold, he opened his arms and took a deep breath of the cold air, showing an intoxicated look.

"Ah! Even the air smells of gold. Daqian is such a great place with gold everywhere!"

His newly promoted first mate Charlie also looked a little excited: "Daqian is really a magical country. Everything can be converted into gold. Thank God for the gift!"

Benjamin shook his head: "Oh, Charlie, you are wrong. The real magic in Daqian is His Highness the Ninth Prince, and it is His Highness the Ninth Prince who you really need to thank!"

"Oh, praise His Highness the Ninth Prince!"

……

Li Changfeng didn't know Benjamin was coming.

At this time, he was coaching Li Jianye in acting.

"Monkey! Remember, you are not a human now, you are a monkey!"

"Momentum! You need to show the momentum of an unparalleled hero, you know? Don't forget that you are the Monkey King, which means equal to the sky. Don't be so petty in your movements, be open and close!"

"Again!"

Li Jianye had no choice but to repeat it over and over again, and did not stop to rest until Li Changfeng was satisfied.

"Brother Ninth, acting is really tiring!"

Li Changfeng smiled and said, "Do you think it's easy to become people's idol?"

"By the way, Ninth Brother, do you think I can perform at this level now?"

"Okay, I'll send someone to post an announcement right now. The second episode will start tomorrow. The Monkey King is causing havoc in the Heavenly Palace!"
