Chapter 32: Colors
After Qiao Yadan left, Sasha came to provoke Fang Xiao again with a teasing smile on her face.
"Fang Xiao, Ada said that Boss Shen asked you to come to work in a few days, you came to the bar today, you have no money to take, what are you going to do? Oh! I know, you want to secretly find out the truth and the truth, and then show us the color, right? Today's young people are really thoughtful, not only do they not know how to respect their predecessors, but they also always think about doing black hands behind their backs. I heard Uncle Bao say that you are Qiao Yadan's boyfriend? Oh, if you want me to say, you two are really a natural pair, one is shameless, the other is insidious and cunning......"
This woman is really a brain-dead and shrewd complex, she is not lightly ill and can be cured!
"Sister Sasha." Fang Xiao interrupted her harsh chirping, then lifted the chair that Qiao Yadan was sitting on just now, put it down against Sasha's chair back, and then sat down, leaned forward, leaned forward, and leaned only a few centimeters away from her, staring at the thick face, shaking his head, and said regretfully: "I think your makeup tonight is very bad, and the rouge is too little, and it can't cover up the wrinkles and old skin on your face at all." ”
Sasha was forced by his momentum, subconsciously leaned back, and after hearing the reaction, her eyebrows rose upside down, her face was fierce, and she was about to scold when she opened her mouth.
"You ......"
"Sister Sasha, I am indeed very insidious and cunning, but that doesn't mean that I don't like to help others, everyone will be colleagues soon, I can't watch you be ugly and rude in front of this gentleman." Fang Xiao didn't give her a chance to speak, stood up again, stepped back with a chair, and said with a smile: "That's okay, I'll go and take out my family's ancestral secret recipe and help you, it will definitely make your face ruddy, not only ruddy, but also ruddy and elastic." ”
Lan Xiaoxi bit the corner of her mouth and smiled.
The middle-aged man beside Sasha stood up, posed to protect the flowers, and scolded, "You are new? How do you speak?! I also know Boss Shen, believe it or not, a phone call from me will let you out of the way right away! ”
Fang Xiao had been in the bar for many years in his previous life, he knew the rules, and there was a conflict between the employees, which was an internal contradiction, the boss turned a blind eye and didn't see it, and he had a dispute with the customer, that is, there was a problem with professional ethics, and nine times out of ten he would be swept away.
The atmosphere of this bar is very good, Uncle Bao and they are masters, they can learn a lot of things, and Uncle Shen seems to have a deep relationship with Xu, Fang Xiao doesn't want to lose a big deal because of a small thing, and besides, this man didn't provoke him, so he said with a smile: "I'm sorry, please sit, please sit." ”
The so-called stretched out his hand and didn't hit the smiling person, the middle-aged man sat down again, and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Young man, don't be too arrogant!" When Sasha sang here, you were a little kid playing with mud. Mix in the circle, you must know that you respect your predecessors, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat. ”
Seeing that he was soft, Sasha picked the corners of his eyes, snorted heavily, and said, "Go buy a bottle of wine and apologize to me!" Then forget about tonight, or I'll let you walk around without food. ”
"Sister Sasha, please don't be impatient, don't worry, I'll go to the bar." Fang Xiao kept smiling, hooked her fingers at Lan Xiaoxi, and waited for her to stand up before she said to Sasha: "My ancestral secret recipe has absolutely good curative effects, and it will take a while to make you return to the delicate and beautiful appearance of 10 years ago, which is guaranteed to make Mr. Wang want to die at night." ”
"Fang Xiao! You ......"
Fang Xiao ignored her, bypassed the table, and took Lan Xiaoxi to the bar.
Xu Xu was chatting with the bartender Ada, with three mocktails in front of him, and when he saw them coming, he said, "I was just about to go back, why are you all here?" Places will be snatched away. ”
Women just love gossip, and mavericks such as Blue Creek are no exception, she leaned over and whispered to him what had just happened.
"Fang Xiao, good evening."
"Adago." Fang Xiao greeted him, then looked at the few old men performing pure music on the small stage, and asked, "I want to go up and try it, how to operate?" ”
"You're fine with your fingers so fast?"
"Almost." Fang Xiao shook the fingers of his hands and said, "I have practiced before, and the cocoon grows very quickly. ”
Ada nodded and said, "There is a guitar on the shelf, you take it yourself, I will ask Dandan to notify you, and when they are over, you can get on." ”
"Okay."
"Yadan is so busy, I'll go and say, I just have something to do with Uncle Bao." Xu Xu was very familiar with this place, and she asked with interest, "Fang Xiao, what song are you going to sing?" ”
"I don't know what to do, I'll go up and think about it."
Ada, who was bartending, looked up at him in surprise, and Xu Ze pursed his lips and made an expression of "just know that you want to be like this".
On both sides of the door of the bar, there is a row of musical instrument racks, on the left is more miscellaneous, there are large strings such as guzheng and guqin, there are also small wind music such as flutes and trumpets, and on the right side is a water string music, there are Western instruments such as guitar and violin, and there are also national instruments such as erhu and pipa, some are exposed to the air, some are collected in boxes, and they are not uniform, and the arrangement is also very particular, not divided by category, but staggered and mixed, uneven, more aesthetic and artistic than neatly arranged.
The guitar here is not bad, they are the standard products of several famous manufacturers in Europe and the United States, Fang Xiao quickly picked a Martin standard D-shaped piano, Martin is one of the top guitar brands in the world, he has been making guitars since the nineteenth century, although the products in the past and present life are numbered and named, but the difference is not big, he used this brand in his previous life, which is more convenient.
After choosing the guitar, he went to the left side again, took three sandhammers, and when he returned to the bar, Xu Xu had already returned from the small stage, she held a wine glass, and asked with a smile, "Feeling it?" ”
"Inspired by feelings." Fang Xiao also smiled, he divided one of the shakers to Lan Xiaoxi, and the remaining two were licensed, and said: "It's better to be happy alone than to be happy, and it's better for one person to slap your face than for a group of people. ”
"That woman is indeed hateful, and she actually has black feet." Xu put down the wine glass, took the sand hammer, shook it twice, made a rustling sound, and asked enthusiastically, "How to fight?" ”
Lan Xiaoxi couldn't hide her excitement, and her eyes burned.
"When I tell you to go up, you will go up, and then just listen to me." Fang Xiao listened to the trend of the melody, and knew that the performance on the stage was almost over, so he picked up the guitar and said, "Shahammer and the others will give one to Qiao Yadan and let her come to play too." ”
He turned around and walked towards the stage, and heard Ada behind him ask for permission: "Xiao Ke, what do you mean by feeling it?" ”
"It's improvisation, he wants to improvise and sing."
"Will he be able to do it?"
"I don't know ...... way."
The rest of the words, Fang Xiao couldn't hear clearly, he had just walked to the stage, and it was just over.
There are a total of four people on the stage, Fang Xiao has already met three of them, Uncle Bao who plays the drums, Kun Ge who plays the guitar, Li Bo who plays the piano, and one is the first time I met today, but the person who Qiao Yadan has introduced last time is also surnamed Li, he plays the oboe, because he is relatively young, just over fifty, so he is called "Uncle Li", and the one who plays the piano is called "Li Bo" to show the difference.
"Xiao Fang, are you going to give us some color so soon?"
is also to look at the color, Uncle Bao said and Sasha said, it is completely two tones, Uncle Bao is a friendly ridicule, and Sasha is a malicious provocation.
"What did Uncle Bao say, I came to Banmen to get an axe and ask for guidance." Fang Xiao smiled and greeted a few old men who didn't even know their names: "Brother Kun, Uncle Li, Uncle Li." ”
These old men are all successful people with a good career, and their bearings are relatively calm, and they all nodded in response, but they didn't say much, only Uncle Bao patted him on the shoulder and said a few words of encouragement.
Fang Xiao is an old man, between the two performances, he should leave a little free time, after all, this is a bar, not a concert, and the continuous performance will affect the sales of alcohol, so after he came on stage, he did not rush to speak or sing, but sat on the high stool, slowly adjusted the position of the microphone, and after adjusting it, he went to tune the guitar strings, in fact, it was just for show, and maintaining the instrument was also one of Qiao Yadan's daily work, and this guitar was adjusted very accurately by her.
As the permission said, this is a niche bar, the more niche the more professional, the people who come here to listen to a few old men playing musical instruments are all people with mature musical tastes, they saw Fang Xiao a thin and weak young man tinkering on the stage, and immediately became contemptuous, and the sound of conversation in the bar was much louder than before, buzzing like bees returning to the nest.
"What is Fang Xiao doing here?" Xu Xu was puzzled and asked Uncle Bao, "Why don't you start yet?" ”
"He's clearing the ears of his guests." Uncle Bao said happily: "I didn't see it, he is still a knowledgeable person." ”
"Clear your ears?"
"We were just four people, and we had a lively game, and now he is going up alone, and the music style must be light, so there must be a transition, and we will perform after the guests' ears are rested."
Fang Xiao saw that the people who went to the bathroom had all returned, and the people who had ordered the wine had also gotten it, so he started talking.
"Good evening everyone, my name is Fang Xiao, a square square, a person who knows things." After introducing his name, Fang Xiao said: "I'm a new musician in the bar, I originally came to work next week, and I came here today, just to get used to the environment, and I didn't plan to perform." ”
It's straightforward, nothing special, but the tone is very confident, with a hint of "you've earned it tonight," and some of the sensitive customers stopped talking and looked up at him.
"I was sitting there just now, behind Sister Sasha, Sister Sasha - the old customers should know her, it's the same Sister Sasha who sings here - she just asked a very idiotic question." Fang Xiao couldn't see what Sasha's expression was now, but it didn't matter, he waited for the guests who looked back to pay attention to the stage again before continuing: "Sister Sasha's question is: Are all the people who can write songs in this world dead? ”
"I came up to tell her that there are many people who can write songs in this world, but because her character is too poor and her quality is too low, no one wants to write for her."
Sasha stood up and shouted loudly, "Fang Xiao, what do you mean by talking nonsense there?!" ”
"Nothing interesting, didn't you ask me to show you some color? Then I'll give you some color to see, so that you can know how brilliant the world is. ”
