Chapter 481: Diao Chan: You're not that bad
Liu Xian wanted to make Tianlou an instant hit, and he became popular in Luoyang overnight, so that Tianlou Street knew about it, and everyone came here.
Liu Xian wants to make the Tianlou really popular, so that the people who come to taste the food and wine, and appreciate the great beauty of the country and the city, let the guests who are surrounded by the Tianlou circle after circle, line up to enter the Tianlou.
Only by causing such a sensational effect will Tianlou be completely prosperous and become a leader in the Luoyang restaurant industry in a short period of time.
Now Tianlou has launched so many new tricks at one time, which is completely different from the ordinary restaurants and taverns of this era. In terms of food and drink, and in terms of business methods, they have been completely different, and relatively speaking, this is a thorough innovation.
People who are accustomed to the old things will not fully accept it for a while, but what they eat and drink, whether it is good or bad, they will know that it is good or good.
Judging from the reaction of the guests on the opening day, Tianlou has indeed been considered a success. It is estimated that the vast majority of them are repeat customers.
The time is close to noon, and at this time, the pedestrians on Green Willow Street also begin to increase.
And every pedestrian who enters the green willow flower street, they will be attracted by the people's food for the sky restaurant, because the sky tower is lively and noisy, more and more pedestrians are curious to approach and observe, when they learn that the original restaurant is open, and then hear all kinds of discounts and benefits here, they will also stay to join in the fun.
However, don't look at the skytower is indeed very large, just the main building can receive one or two thousand guests at the same time. But this time, Liu Xian made people advertise for the entire Luoyang City, so one or two thousand people is really not much for the entire Luoyang.
At this time, the sky tower has reached a state of full house, and even if the guests come in, they can't find a vacant seat for a while.
The heavenly karma is full, and there is a good start, which is indeed a good sign.
Right now, there are already a lot of guests who want to enter the sky tower to make a quick queue.
Liu Xian knew it was time.
Within the tower, a winding corridor connects to a courtyard behind the tower. Here, Liu Xian has been classified as a makeup and rest place for the singing and dancing girls who will perform in the sky tower in the future. In order to ensure the safety of this place and not be disturbed by others, Liu Xian specially dispatched twenty or thirty Tianlou guards to guard it.
Now only Diao Chan and a few women show up to perform, if there are more people in the future, this guard may have to increase.
In this world, power is the truth, even if Liu Xian has already explained that he is not a Miss Qinglou who performs on stage here, she is a serious woman, and she is an artist who is really obsessed with singing and music, and there is not even any saying that she does not sell her body, because it is not sold at all.
Performing in the sky tower, they are equivalent to a charity performance, and they do not charge tickets and do not accept rewards from guests.
This is Liu Xian's desire to make things more pure, if he accepts a reward from a guest, then the nature will be different. This is not the post-modern era, the reward on the Internet, those tips and gifts, are purely voluntary, are appreciation, reward will be rewarded, will not directly put forward some excessive requirements, even if it is an excessive request, it doesn't matter, because it is not face-to-face, people can completely ignore it.
Now, this is equivalent to live broadcasting, in case the guest gives a huge reward and asks the lady who performs on stage to accompany him to eat and drink, it will be difficult to deal with. After having a relationship of interest, take people softly.
What's more, Liu Xian is trying to create an entertainment star in this Three Kingdoms era, so it is important to keep this star in an independent and special nature, and keep a distance from everyone, so as to distinguish him from the ordinary Miss Qinglou.
If you accept both rewards and accompany you to eat and drink, what is the difference between you and the average Miss Qinglou?
The relationship between Liu Xian and Diao Chan is neither good nor bad, and now she is able to accept staying in the Marquis Wuyong's Mansion temporarily, and she no longer regards Liu Xian as a bad person. In particular, Liu Xian did copy a lot of later generations of singing music, and asked them to compose music with people like Yi Ji who knew about singing, and then Liu Xian put forward a lot of opinions that made the eyes of those who loved singing music shine. For example, how to play with a variety of different instruments, etc.
For them, Liu Xian's most creative thing is to propose to set notes and syllables for music. Liu Xian moved the standard seven notes of later generations: do, rui, mi, fa, whoosh, la, hee.
Then, Liu Xian also proposed some improvements and innovations in musical instruments.
In order to make the music more rhythmic, Liu Xian has already made all the Western percussion music of later generations.
All of these things are unheard of, which opened Diao Chan's eyes to realize that music can be played like this, and there are so many doorways.
In fact, Liu Xian thinks that he should first talk to Cai Yong, who is also a master in music. But the problem is that Liu Xian doesn't want Cai Yong to be distracted by these things, which affects his establishment of an academy for himself. For him to indulge in music and waste time, it is better to focus on cultivating more talents for himself.
Playing music, playing musical instruments, these are still good for women to play. Men, it doesn't matter when the times are peaceful and prosperous, but in troubled times, it's better not to indulge in it, at most it's a hobby to understand, and it's good to have time to learn.
Of course, it is also Liu Xian's selfishness, although he brought the music of later generations to this ancient era, contributed to the development of music in advance, and planned to create an entertainment career in this ancient era. But Liu Xian is actually for his own enjoyment, in this ancient era, there was no electricity, no mobile phones, no TV and movies, and no massive music that could be listened to at any time.
Teach those women and they will be able to sing to themselves and perform for themselves. It's a beautiful way to live.
But now, Diao Chan, that is, Wang Xiuer, she and the other four little sisters are not too deep in music, after all, their age is here, and they are in a learning stage. Liu Xian told them a lot of things, and it was really difficult for them to fully understand and use them for a while. Even if you are a genius, you have to have a learning process.
Therefore, when it comes to playing music, it is not enough to rely on the five daughters alone.
Among them, one girl learns chimes, one woman learns the piano, and three girls dance, Diao Chan is actually a dancing girl, but she is indeed very talented in music, and she is also very diligent, and she usually learns other musical instruments, and her learning is not worse than others. It can be said that Diao Chan is a well-rounded artist with good looks and a well-rounded development.
But now, in addition to appearance, singing and dancing are barely passable, and it is difficult for others to take on heavy responsibilities.
Yi Ji won't talk about it, she is indeed a pure hobby, she can play, but she won't play wholeheartedly.
It's a pity that Cai Yan, who is not under her father, has only come to marry Liu Xian not long ago, and she has not had time to guide them to Leyi. In addition, Kong Xue also understands music, but she is similar to Yi Ji's nature, she can play, but she is not too fine. Of course, they are actually more talented, even if they are not very sophisticated, but they play much better than the average person. At least, Liu Xian can't tell the good or the bad.
Naturally, only five women are not enough.
Liu Xian has long had the intention of expanding this music team.
Not long ago, Liu Xian knew through Wang Xian, who is now the shopkeeper of Tianlou, that the original Cuizhu Ruan also had his own singing and dancing girls and musicians. Let's not talk about the singing and dancing girls, in fact, it is to let some young ladies who are still good looks learn some music. But the musician is the real thing, and he is indeed a person who has played an instrument all his life.
But it's a pity that the original Cui Zhuruan didn't have many musicians, a total of six or seven.
Three of them are old musicians, playing the piano, pan flute, zheng, and other musical instruments. Among them, the old musician who played the piano had already left Cuizhu Ruan and joined another Qinglou to continue to serve as a piano master, and her little apprentice also followed. In this way, there were only five people, Liu Xian saw these five people, and then asked them to show their respective musical skills, and then Liu Xian left them all behind and enriched them into Diao Chan's team.
In addition, Liu Xian plans to dig up Ying'er, if she comes, then the strength of this team will be strong. In the future, as long as he encounters talents who are good at a certain musical instrument, Liu Xian will recruit them to enrich his entertainment team.
Naturally, Liu Xian has too many things to do, and the thought and time spent on this singing music will definitely not be too much. At most, it's just to pay attention to it in passing, well, mainly to pay attention to these women......
Liu Xian came to this small courtyard specially designated for people performing songs and dances to make up and rest, and saw that they were preparing in a nervous and orderly manner.
But I saw Diao Chan sitting aside, silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
Liu Xian walked up to her and said softly, "Xiu'er, what's wrong?" After a while, you'll be on stage performing songs and dances, but you seem to have something on your mind, are you a little nervous? β
"Huh? Yes, it's you......" Diao Chan seemed to be startled, and after seeing that it was Liu Xian, she turned her face away and said.
"What are you thinking? Can you talk? Liu Xian continued to say softly.
"I, I don't know if it's good or not, this time I performed songs and dances in the Tianlou, and the situation of performing in the Mansion of Marquis Wu Yong a few days ago is completely different. At the time of your wedding, those were your relatives and friends, and there was nothing to perform for them, but now, those are guests you don't know. β
"Hehe, what does it matter? Actually, you don't have to think about who is watching you perform, you have to think about singing and dancing well. That's it, after all, Xiu'er you don't perform on stage to please the guests, but to show your talent in these singing and dancing arts, so that the world will know your name. We are not for profit, and we can even say that we are not famous, because even if you are famous, it is not to be famous for the sake of being famous, but to promote these better-sounding and better-looking songs and dances. Xiu'er, in this world, life is already very hard and difficult, our song and dance is to allow many people who are suffering to have fun in suffering, or get inspiration from these songs, in order to pursue true beauty, struggle hard, and strive to live. β
Liu Xian opened the big flicker and unraveled Diao Chan.
"People are still a little worried...... Worried about her father-in-law, she knows that people are like this...... Without the permission of the stepfather, people show up like this, which doesn't seem to be good. Diao Chan seemed to have some scruples.
"Haha, so you're worried that your stepfather will blame you. This one...... Well, you can rest easy. To tell you the truth, I have sent people to prison to see your stepfather and talk to him about you. He won't blame you. And ......" Liu Xian thought for a while and asked her, "Xiu'er, do you want to go to prison to see your father-in-law?" β
"What? YouβCan you send your family to prison to visit your father-in-law? Diao Chan's spirits perked up, and the original melancholy eyes were as bright as if they could be discharged.
"Well, there should be a way, but it will take time to figure it out. You can wait with peace of mind, anyway, I will definitely find a way to take you to the prison to visit your stepfather. In addition, I can also tell you that in fact, your stepfather did not suffer too much in the prison, and those prison guards did not dare to lynch Lord Wang casually. As for the eunuchs who framed your stepfather, I'm afraid they won't dare to risk the world, and they won't dare to do anything to your stepfather in secret. After all, the Wang family is also powerful. β
Liu Xian naturally did not send anyone into the prison to visit Wang Yun, but he did feel that he should be able to arrange Diao Chan to enter the prison to visit Wang Yun. It's nothing more than spending money on dots.
In fact, Liu Xian also wanted to go to see Wang Yun by himself, and then completely solve the matter of Diao Chan. Diao Chan will soon become a living signboard of his skytower, and Liu Xian naturally doesn't want Diao Chan to follow Wang Yun anymore. As for the serial beauty plan in the future, Liu Xian will not care. Without Diao Chan, there might be another beauty to complete those plans?
Liu Xian thought that next year, Wang Yun would be released. Anyway, he is going to be released, so he will show his goodwill now, pat his chest and tell Wang Yun that he is here, guarantee that he will be fine, and say that he will be rescued from prison.
And with Wang Yun's cleverness, Liu Xian only needs to reveal his thoughts about Diao Chan a little, and I believe Wang Yun will understand. Compared to his life and freedom, what is an adopted singer? No matter how beautiful he is, if he doesn't have his life, what is the use? If he can exchange Diao Chan for his own life and freedom, Wang Yun will definitely know how to choose.
The more Liu Xian thought about it, the more he felt that this matter could be operated.
Now Liu Xian tries his best to treat Diao Chan politely, sincerely move her with his actions, and then through the mouth of her stepfather, he will marry her to himself, then this matter will be done.
Although, Wang Yun's promise will not be sincere, and there is a history record, but what does it matter? As long as Wang Yun opens his mouth, then Diao Chan will obey, and then Diao Chan is here with him, and no one can snatch it away.
"Thank you, little marquis...... Actually, you, you're not that bad......" Diao Chan said thank you at this time, and then said it a little shyly.
