79 The Liu family and the four of them went out of the royal court, and then hurried to the east.

There is a small river more than 20 miles away from the royal court, which is the first river to the east after leaving the royal court, so the person let them meet here, because this will not go to the wrong place, the vast grassland, there are few things that mark "sex", the Han people are not like the "Mongolian" ancients are used to it, and they also know how to identify the direction, for the Han people who first came to the "Mongolian" ancient steppe, this river is the best to find, and it will not be "lost".

When the four of them arrived at the river, there were already more than a dozen people here, Liu Jiahe was not familiar with them, but those guys were familiar, after everyone said hello, they didn't speak again, after all, they didn't get anything when they came out this time, and they also threw Lan Guangyong here, which is called stealing 'chickens' and not becoming a handful of rice.

After waiting for another hour, the people were almost here, and the leader said: "Everyone is ready to drive, in the future, we will open the road at night, rest during the day, and try to avoid those tribes of the 'Mongolian' ancients,"

More than 100 people got on the horse and went south along the river, which was sad for Chen Lao Er, who was following behind, how to leave a mark, the people behind came here, and they couldn't see it when it was dark, no way, seeing the team in front of them going farther and farther, Chen Lao Er was in a hurry, so he had to look at three small trees and make an arrow mark, such a big mark, the people behind should be able to see it,

After doing all this, Chen Lao Er followed again, a distance of three miles away, because the person in front of him was holding a torch, so he would not be tracked and lost.

Lao He Yan in the back also found the mark left by Chen Lao Er, and chased down the river, only the cheap father, did not follow this route, he knew that no matter how those people went, they would pass by the place where He Yan Junshan was arrested that day, so he took the hundred cavalry left by Lao He Yan and went straight to that direction and,

Beijing, the New Year's fireworks 'flowers' have just dissipated, and ushered in the traditional festival Lantern Festival, for our silver number, the New Year is a good day, it is a good time for us to expand our influence, according to the emperor's instructions, we have carried out a number of individual talent performances in a row, a total of more than 30 people were selected to enter the finals,

The date of the finals is set on the afternoon of the Lantern Festival, and a lot of guests were invited to come over to help, officials will not participate in this event, the main guests are the presidents of many merchant associations in Beijing, these people, also feel very face, and many people come to sponsor, the requirement is to appear in the finals, the name of their store, and finally we thought of a wealth to know, that is, bidding, everyone writes the price, 'hand' to us, the store name of the ten merchants with the highest price, will be in our finals, appeared on the stage, originally we wanted to 'spend' silver to expand our influence, but now it's good, it has become a money-making business.

The first merchant, bidding 1,500 taels, is a merchant, a total income of more than 10,000 taels of silver, remove bonuses and fees, we can also net more than 5,000 taels, this is none of us expected, it seems that in the future, such activities will be more, which can not only increase income, but also improve our reputation,

At noon on the day of the Lantern Festival, the street in front of the 'door' of Xiao Cai's Mansion was already crowded, and people were looking forward to seeing who the first place was.

Our silver trumpet is also full of people, and those who have silver outside can't come in, so we simply take a day off to let everyone have fun.

Liu Taoran Xing Zhiwei, of course the three of us can't be idle, we are all judges on the stage, and we also invited a few more famous artists, Qinglou 'Hua' Kui San Niangzi, folk artist Liu Xiaoquan, and a few specially invited guests, one of them is my nemesis Uncle Li Guo, originally I didn't want to look for him, but Zhang Juzheng said that it is better to settle the grievance, Uncle Li usually has a drama troupe at home, and he is very fond of this industry, so I also invited him to be a judge together, he is a relative of the emperor, and he doesn't care about what reputation is not famous, As long as you're happy,

I am also happy to make friends with him, after all, now the Empress Dowager Li is still talking in front of the emperor, even if I don't use him, I don't want to make an enemy, it just so happens that Uncle Li Guo also sprinkled his grievances on Gao Gong, and I robbed his first floor, and I have no dissatisfaction.

Just after noon, all the guests took their seats, plus the three of us are a total of ten people, Uncle Li and I are sitting in the right seat, and the rest are lined up on both sides, waiting for the players to play.

At the beginning, I was preparing for the individual competition, and there were fifteen shortlisted players, who went on the field in turn, and there were no regulations on the form of the performance, whether it was singing or boxing, it was okay to participate, anyway, you can participate in just something amazing.

This game is based on the three ladies' apprentice red lotus one by one song willow three changes of snow plum fragrance: Jing Xiaosuo, dangerous building ** face clear sky, sad autumn mood, at that time Song 'jade' should be the same, the fishing market is lonely smoke and cold blue, the remnant leaves of the water village dance sad red, Chu Tiankuo, 'waves' soaked in the sun, thousands of miles dissolve, the wind wants to be beautiful, don't be sad, the town eyebrows, but unfortunately back then, the rain traces the clouds, the elegance is happy, the fall of the 'flower' flowing water is suddenly west and east, no hatred, lovesickness, pay Zhenghong,

Red Lotus's song of snow plum fragrance won the applause of all the audience, even I, a person who doesn't understand music, feel that people sing really well, regardless of the sound quality, the meaning of this willow three changes is good, Uncle Li Guo is by my side is a strong shout, and from time to time stand up and shout good, looking at the red lotus's eyes have become asked,

The second place is a knight named Wu Daquan, the performance is a plum 'flower' pile, of course there can be no plum 'flower' pile for him on the stage, people feel better, let the apprentice bring twelve sea bowls, which are filled with water, Wu Daquan played a trip to Shaolin boxing on it, and there was no sea bowl that was trampled over, and even the water in the bowl was not spilled out a little, I am also a person who practices martial arts, I know the difficulty of this light skill, and people's attainments are much better than mine,

The third place is a blind artist who sings, in his fifties, a song of Bai Pu's masterpiece "Zhu Yingtai Death Marrying Liang Shanbo" made many spectators cry, and finally ten of us discussed, these three people won the top three respectively, as for the award ceremony, it will be awarded together after the team competition,

In the next team competition, the first place is Uncle Li's own team, they are self-choreographed and directed songs and dances: "Heavenly Neon Dress Song" won the first place, although this dance music is not a famous song, but, but fresh and bright, it seems that Uncle Li Guo has worked hard, when it was announced that he won the first place, Uncle Li Guo's mouth couldn't close,

The second place is more than a dozen little girls who forget to return to the building of Goolan Courtyard, and collectively sang the doubai 'flowers' of Liu Sanchang: sassy frost and floating mandarin tiles, the green curtain is light and cold, the long 'door' is deeply locked quietly, the autumn 'color' of the court is late, seeing the chrysanthemum, Chongyang tears fall like beads, the long is drowned in the powder, the sound of the luan is far away, infinite hatred, the love of the empty [evil belt] fan, should be the emperor, the strange concubine resigned, steep and now, the first enchanting in the palace, but the Zhaoyang Feiyan, with singing and dancing, won the second place,

The third place is the soldiers of the guards in our ya'men', the gun dance performed by Sui Jian's 'spring' himself, the soldiers are wearing shiny armor, as well as grinding the shiny gun head, and the gun head is also 'made' more than a foot long red tassels, more than a dozen people dance is beautiful in an instant,

After the end of the team competition, it is the award ceremony, the first place has a sponsorship of the merchant to issue a silver ticket, a few of us are responsible for awarding certificates to the winners, the certificate is not ordinary, I asked Zhang Juzheng to write, Liu Taoran can fill in the name on it, Zhang Juzheng's words, now can also be worth dozens of taels of silver, after all, it is the first assistant, the handwriting is also worth saving,

Although the game is over, the crowd on the street is still reluctant to disperse, all saying, I haven't enjoyed it yet, it would be nice to do it again, but this is unrealistic, if we continue like this, we are blocked here every day, and we don't have to open the 'door' to exchange for silver tickets.

Sending all the guests away, Uncle Li Guo also happily left with his troupe, looking like that, he had forgotten what he had just been punished by the emperor, this person is also the kind of person who has no heart and no lungs, and he doesn't seem to be jealous of me,

Finally finished this laborious and annoying game, the next day, our Ya 'door' can also be officially worked, I just sat in a sedan chair to the Ya 'door' entrance, I saw a group of people waiting in the black, waiting for us to open the 'door' to handle business, there are carrying heavy packages, and there are people holding silver tickets in the collection, showing off with others,

I didn't care about this, I entered the ya' 'door', came to the study and sat down, waiting for the two of them to come, we are going to discuss the personnel sent to various places today, and after waiting for a while, Liu Taoran and Xing Zhiwei have arrived, and now Liu Taoran has moved to my heart mansion before the 'Spring' Festival, so there is no need to live in the ya' 'door', his old father's illness has also improved a lot, and I have personally 'operated' all of this, so now Liu Taoran is my hardcore, Xing Zhiwei is also good, everything is also to feed me is the head of the horse, our yaThere is no other intrigue between the 'door' and the 'door',

After they arrived, they came to my study together, and I spoke first: "Two adults, now that the 'Spring Festival' is over, although the other ya's 'gates' are still on holiday, our place, it seems that there is no holiday, now is the time for us to discuss the expatriates, and you two also talk about how we should send them."

"Lan people, I see that our expatriates are selected from the first batch of thirty people who came first, these people understand business, and they are also the first batch of people who are optimistic about our ya'men', so their loyalty is also the highest, as for who to let them do and how to choose, I think Lan and Liu know a little more about them, I came the latest, and I don't know their temperament 'nature' very well,"

Xing Zhiwei is also right, these people Liu Taoran knows best, and he should listen to his opinion.
