My life skills in Daming Liver

Chongming Island.

Xu Youmian took several merchants from Sichuan and walked down from the Chongming Island Pier. A housekeeper was already waiting for him here.

The old housekeeper received Xu Youmian warmly, while Xu Kun, disguised as one of Xu Youmian's guests, was also looking at the dock.

Xu Kun is very familiar with Chongming Island.

In order to compete with Su Ze's new loom, Xu Kun bought the land on Chongming Island and built a wharf on Chongming Island to compete with the Shanghai wharf founded by Su Ze.

What Xu Kun didn't expect was that the geological structure of the place where he built the dock was unstable. Later, the water level of the Yangtze River rose, flooding most of the dock.

The cargo terminal with huge investment can now only be used as a passenger terminal. This is Xu Kun's biggest setback after meeting Su Ze.

After this incident, Xu Kun never went against Su Ze again. The next time Su Ze entered Songjiang Mansion, Xu Kun was the first among the big families in Songjiang to surrender.

Xu Kun felt much better when he thought about the stupid things he did on Chongming Island.

After all, I had my own time when I was young, and my son is now struggling on Chongming Island. Isn't he the same as me back then?

But now the Chongming Island Pier is indeed very lively.

Xu Xiu renovated the pier. Although the current pier cannot accommodate large ships, it can accommodate various types of boats.

There were people everywhere on the pier, which surprised Xu Kun. Today is only the day before the holiday, but business is so good?

But when he thought about Xu Xiu's business, Xu Kun became very angry.

After coming out of the pier, the housekeeper had arranged a carriage for Xu Youmian, and the group took a comfortable pier and headed towards the resort area of ​​Chongming Island.

Xu Youmian was very satisfied with the service on Chongming Island. The carriage was a shock-absorbing carriage with a private space. They were assigned a larger carriage according to the number of people, and a dedicated driver drove the carriage.

The roads are also well built and there are no bumps in the road.

There is even a sound transmission hole on the carriage of the carriage. The coachman sitting on the top of the carriage and driving the carriage can introduce the scenery of Chongming Island to the guests in the carriage while driving the carriage through the sound transmission tube.

Xu Xiu obviously invited many literati to visit the island. The common scenic spots on the island were given poetic and picturesque names. Xu Kun was stunned when he saw these familiar scenes. It turned out to be much better with the poetic names. .

The carriage didn't go for long before it came to a rather new building.

Xu Kun was also stunned for a moment. He only knew that his son was tossing around on Chongming Island, but he didn't know what he was tossing about.

Was this building built by Xu Xiu in such a short amount of time?

Why does this building look so familiar?

Xu Xiu took a look and wondered why this building looked so similar to the Crystal Palace?

Reinforced concrete is used as the main body, but it is covered with a large amount of glass. The entire building is the main body of Chinese-style architecture and uses new materials.

This gives all visitors a sense of the fusion of ancient and modern times.

Xu Youmian has also traveled to many places. Now with the development of business travel, the accommodation industry is also developing rapidly.

But this was the first time Xu Youmian had seen a place like Chongming Island.

The coachman introduced:

"This is the theater in our resort. You can come here every night to enjoy the show during your stay on the island. This is included in your accommodation fee and there is no need to buy additional tickets."

Xu Youmian was surprised. He didn't expect that going to the theater was free?

Xu Kun knew his son's tricks. Although watching the theater was free, accommodation on Chongming Island was expensive, much more expensive than the best hotels in Songjiang City.

The carriage just circled around the Grand Theater, and the coachman said:

"Everyone, the earliest performance is at six o'clock in the evening. The first program is the classic section "Jing Meng" from the classic piece "The Peony Pavilion" by Su Dadu. The performer is Miss Zhu Huatingzhu, the leading actress of our Chongming Island Theater Troupe. Those who are interested Guests can book tickets from me.”

Xu Kun knew the name of Zhu Huating. Her life experience was quite bizarre. She was originally an orphan who was sold into a brothel. Later, after the governor Su Ze came to the city, he banned the brothel and Zhu Huating was rescued from the brothel.

After that, Zhu Huating went to a girls' school. According to the life rules of normal girls' schools, they would also enter various industries that are booming in the southeast and engage in industries suitable for women.

Li Shizhen Medical College majors in doctors, nurses, and teachers. These are relatively good careers for female practitioners in the Southeast.

But Zhu Huating did not pursue these careers like his classmates. Instead, he founded a song and dance troupe after graduating from a girls' school.

This was considered by many people to be a naughty nature, and all kinds of dirty water was thrown at her.

But Zhu Huating still went her own way. She composed her own music and rehearsed for the troupe. She became famous in Songjiang Prefecture and quickly became a smash star.

After Zhu Huating became famous, he held a Kunqu opera training class, which also attracted many girls from relatively miserable family backgrounds to sign up.

Those who are talented in folk arts are trained to be musicians, and those who can perform on stage are trained to be dancers.

Now Zhu Huating gained another reputation. Su Song's people called her the Madam.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Huating was recruited by his son and became the top star of Chongming Island Resort.

Xu Kun was even more worried. Will his son hang out with Zhu Huating?

When he arrived at the accommodation, Xu Kun was shocked again by the environment here.

In the two-story building, the rooms are all made of the best quilts made by the Xu family's cotton workshop. Although the rooms are not big, they are very warm and comfortable.

There are also dedicated canteens throughout the resort, and resort staff can also deliver things to your room.

After briefly relaxing, Xu Kun and Xu Youmian took a carriage to the theater together.

Zhu Huating's first performance was about to begin. What Xu Kun didn't expect was that such a huge theater would be packed.

As the curtain opened and gongs and drums sounded, the theater performance officially began!

However, many special effects were used in the closed theater. The moving scenery and various pyrotechnics special effects made Xu Kun mesmerized.

Zhu Huating's singing also greatly amazed Xu Kun.

When the performance ended, the entire theater burst into thunderous applause.

The actors returned to the stage again for the curtain call, and several staff members carried flower baskets onto the stage.

Every time a flower basket is delivered, the coloratura who is responsible for announcing the curtain will shout in an exaggerated tone: "Thank you Master XX for the flower basket!"

Xu Kun stopped a staff member and asked, "How do I deliver this flower basket?"

"Fifty silver dollars for a flower basket."

"Give me ten!"
