Chapter 45 The nobles are very face-saving

Whether it is in later generations, or in the Tang Dynasty where Zhao Chen is now, there is one thing that basically does not have any difference, that is, the friction of women before going out.

Obviously, they are ready to go out, but often, when they go out, they will make people wait for a while, and this moment is often more than ten or twenty minutes.

There were three women in the Hou Mansion, so when he was about to go out, Zhao Chen heard Mai say that when the three ladies asked him to wait for a while, they decisively added half an hour.

Waiting is a little boring, in the future life, you can play with your mobile phone for a while, and now, Zhao Chen can only smirk at Xiao Zhao Xi, stretch out his hands, pick up Xiao Zhao Xi and go to the hall outside.

This kid can basically understand people's speech now, and many times, when others are talking, he will blink quietly and listen to others with a very focused expression.

It's just that, up to now, this kid can't speak, and he just 'ahhh

Today is the New Year, when I was playing in the hall with Xiao Zhao Xi, I could hear one or two firecrackers from outside, and Xiao Zhao Xi, who was playing, jumped up and down, revealing an innocent expression.

The performance in the theater was also arranged today, and the reason why Zhao Chen was waiting for the three women in the family to go out was to go to the theater.

In the final analysis, Datang's entertainment industry is too scarce, even if the nobles are full of gold, silver and jewelry in the cellar at home, they are helpless. But he can only be a miser for a lifetime.

It's not that they don't want to spend money, they are reluctant to spend money, the most fundamental reason is that no one has come up with a place to spend money for them, and it's a Pingkangfang to come and go.

Moreover. That kind of place has always been a men's gold cave, spending a lot of money, and in the end only won a romantic name, perhaps, after a while, when another burnt bag appears, it will be quickly forgotten by people.

Chang'an has never been lacking in this place. is such a rich burning bun, but a place like Pingkangfang is, in the final analysis, a place where men go.

Now, fortunately, with the completion of the theater, the performance rehearsed by the students of the Academy Palace is about to kick off, for a while. It has attracted the attention of many Chang'an nobles.

The theatre is no other place than a real place for all ages. So, when ten days ago the theater began putting up huge posters selling tickets for New Year's performances.

The crazy Chang'an nobles, in just one afternoon, nearly 300 tickets were sold out in an instant.

A total of three hundred tickets. According to the different locations, it is also divided into the level of A, B, C, D, the cheapest is 100 yuan, and the most expensive is as high as 500 yuan.

The theater is too small after all to accommodate the number of people. Three hundred is already the upper limit, and it is still at the beginning stage, so if you seek a safe one in advance, wait until later, and slowly become proficient, and then say nothing else.

However, although there were only 300 tickets, when they were sold out, the recovered new coins were also filled with two large boxes, and the students almost stopped laughing on the spot.

But that's not all!

There are too many nobles in Chang'an, three hundred tickets, naturally it is far from enough, some of them are slow to react, and they haven't had time to react, and when they send people to sell tickets, what they see is the ticket window that has been closed.

There are far more than one or two nobles who didn't buy tickets, so when these nobles who didn't take it seriously suddenly learned that the tickets for the theater had been sold out, this was really an ant into a hot pot.

The nobles look at any problem much more far-reaching than ordinary people, so in their opinion, this is not a simple problem of not buying a ticket, but a matter of face.

In particular, when they learn that a colleague who is not on the wrong path with them has already bought a ticket, it is simply a rhythm that can make them crazy in minutes!

As a result, these nobles began to beg for votes everywhere, and even did not hesitate to raise the price by three or four times, and were willing to pay a large price to buy it from others.

It's just that the one who can buy the ticket is an ordinary person with a simple background, all of whom are from the noble family of Chang'an, and no one is worse than anyone else's identity.

Moreover, at this time, no matter how excited you are, you can't let go of the ticket in your hand, this is a matter of face!

It's hard to get a ticket, and those nobles have been busy for half a month, and the price has been raised again and again, but unfortunately, in the end, no one is willing to give up a ticket.

Seeing that the date of the New Year was approaching little by little, just when those nobles were in a hurry, a good news came from the theater, and it didn't make them crazy.

And the good news is that some of the students who originally held tickets were moved by these nobles and expressed their willingness to give up their tickets after hearing that these nobles were begging for tickets in order to watch a performance.

As a result, a high-priced ticket transaction was completed in such a friendly atmosphere with each other.

A total of fifty tickets, but before the sale, more than a hundred effects!

Li Chengqian, who had almost witnessed the whole process, watched a shady transaction being completed under his nose, and suddenly dropped a shameless sentence angrily, and left the theater angrily.

Because, as the helmsman of Qian Zhuang, he suddenly found that such a good idea was not something he came up with, which he simply couldn't tolerate.

Accompanied by Xiao Zhao Xi, after playing in the hall for a while, the three women dressed up and stopped and came out of the back house, so the family of five got into two carriages and went straight to the theater.

The evening is Chinese New Year's Eve, and according to the customs of the Tang people, the ancestors must be worshiped at night to welcome the ancestors home for the New Year, so the theater performance is arranged during the day.

At this time, it was already morning, and when Zhao Chen's family arrived at the door of the theater, there were already people who had arrived early, gathered at the door of the theater, all like Zhao Chen, dragging their families to come with their mouths.

At this time, the door of the theater has not yet opened, and everyone can only stand at the door and wait, but they do not seem impatient, but they talk enthusiastically with each other as if they haven't seen each other for eight hundred years.

It's just that no matter how you look at that expression, you feel like it's showing off to passers-by!

didn't go over to greet those people, Zhao Chen directly ordered Mu Qiu to drive the carriage to the back of the theater, where there was also a back door, but it was only for internal entry and exit.

"Has Your Majesty and Niangniang arrived?" Coming to the back of the theater, seeing the people who were being ridden by a hundred horses behind him, and the appearance of being tightly defended, Zhao Chen suddenly looked at Wang Xuance who was guarding the back door and asked.

"It hasn't been long since I arrived!" Wang Xuance had a swarthy face, with a gentle smile, and when he heard Zhao Chen's words, he immediately replied respectfully.

This guy has been coming to the Academy Palace for a few days, but in terms of things, he is simply an idiot, which makes Zhao Chen a little disappointed.

However, I don't know if this guy was born a diplomat, these days in the school palace, other advantages, Zhao Chen didn't find out, the only thing he found was that this guy was in the school palace, and he could be friends with almost anyone.

And this time, Wang Xuance is in charge of the theater's ticket sales!

Entering through the back door of the theater, the first thing you have to pass through is the backstage of the theater, which is full of students preparing to go on stage, and when you go around this backstage and come to the left side of the backstage, there is a passage to the front room.

When Zhao Chen took his family in, the students in the background had already dressed up and were nervously waiting for the time to take the stage.

"Sir!"

"Hello sir!"

“……”

Seeing Zhao Chen enter with his family, the students who were still sitting there just now suddenly got up one by one, bowed to Zhao Chen, and said respectfully.

It's just that one by one, the monkeys who were neatly dressed and dressed at this time bowed to Zhao Chen and saluted, and the three women who were suddenly shocked screamed and hid behind Zhao Chen at once.

"Not bad!" Zhao Chen saw the three women, who were scared and screaming, and immediately opened his mouth to laugh, and then smiled at the group of students in front of him: "Don't be nervous later, what you usually do, that's what you are, just sit down below, it's like your classmates!" ”

"Follow the teachings of Mr.!" These students in front of them are all children of poor families who have a great hatred and hatred, and what they just saw and the appearance of themselves and others frightened the family members of Mr., and they were extremely nervous.

As a result, when he heard Zhao Chen's comfort at this time, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Zhao Chen and bowed down and said.

Just now, Xiao Zhao Xi's three mothers were scared and screamed, but Xiao Zhao Xi, who was crawling in Zhao Chen's arms, stared at the monkey spirits in front of him without blinking from beginning to end.

With a curious look on his face, until Zhao Chen walked towards the passage with his arms, Xiao Zhao Xi still struggled, broke free from Zhao Chen's arms, rested his head on Zhao Chen's shoulder, and looked at the monkey spirits over there without blinking.

When Zhao Chen entered the front hall, the huge chandelier in the front hall had been lit up early, reflecting the entire front hall as bright as day.

And Li Eryi's family, at this time, was sitting in the attic of the front hall, and saw Zhao Chen coming in with a family below, Li Er's figure had not yet been seen, but the voice had already come out of the attic.

"Bring my grandson up and accompany me to watch the play!"

This voice is an order, it is undoubted, hearing this voice, Zhao Chen suddenly turned his head, smiled helplessly at the three women behind him, and had to take the family towards the attic.

Originally, the location arranged by Zhao Chen was in five or six private rooms away from the royal family, and he was afraid that it would be too close to the royal family, and it would not be comfortable at all, but now it is good, listening to Li Er's tone, it is estimated that there is no hope of separation.
