Chapter 153: Secretary Geng's Horn
This is Yang Binkui raised his head and said, "Everyone has seen this matter, Yang can only resign and go back to Guangyu Society for a meeting, and discuss with the Daoists and seniors how to deal with it." Ziliang, you entertain the two gentlemen for me. After speaking, he took out five cents and threw it on the newspaper, and then got up and called the cousin, "This table is my honored guest, and it is all recorded in the account." ”
"Mr. Yang, wait," Geng Jiaji said
"Huh?"
"Mr. Yang, even if you go back to discuss this matter now, you may not be able to come up with any results, if it doesn't involve internal secrets, you might as well tell us first, Lao Bai has a lot of newspaper colleagues in his hands, and I myself can say something more or less. Of course, with the century-old prestige of Guangyu Society, a little drunken fairy is naturally no problem. However, how to press it down steadily, in my humble opinion, brother, it is best to start at the same time in Shanghai and Suzhou. What does Mr. Yang think? Geng Jiaji's posture was very low, but everyone could hear the pride in his words.
Jia Ziliang was also prying, "President, think about it, is it strange that so many newspapers publish this news together, right, the big experts in running newspapers are here, what a good opportunity." ”
When Yang Binkui heard him say this, it made sense to think about it, so he sat down again, "This Yang has really never seen the world, and he can't hold his breath when he encounters something, which makes the two of them laugh." ”
"Where is Mr. Yang, since meeting is fate, and this matter happens to be familiar to me, let's take a closer look," Bai Xiongying said, holding the tortoiseshell frame.
"Since the establishment of our Guangyu Society in the former Qing Dynasty, we have always been the truthful storyteller in the world. As you know, the rules of Guangyu Society have also become a common rule that storytellers all over the world need to abide by. Yang Binkui threw a peanut into his mouth and chewed it a few times.
"Guangyu Society has always stipulated that women are not allowed to take the stage, why is this, the two of them must be clear from the sea, right?" Yang Binkui asked.
"I don't know how this is, Suzhou is the center of Guangyu Society, so some women who play the lyrics began to migrate to Shanghai in the middle and late Qing Dynasty, and the Baixiang people in Shencheng opened a book to play the lyrics in the meantime, and they can sing well at the beginning. But the more he went on, the more unseemly it became, and gradually the book apartment turned into a gold cave, and the wind and moon field really lost his reputation as a bullet word. After Bai Xiongying finished speaking, he quietly squeezed his eyes at Geng Jiaji, and the latter showed a "don't make fun" expression to show mercy.
"Yes, what Mr. Bai said is," Jia Ziliang interjected, "Later, the government also felt that it was very indecent, so it simply banned the business of female singing books, which was more than 20 years ago." Although Guangyu Society later responded to the Prime Minister's call for equality between men and women, the rule that women are not allowed to sing danci is considered to exist in name only, and as long as female danci are not opened within the jurisdiction of Suzhou Prefecture, they will not be bothered. But this class of outsiders has to make an inch, and openly engage in male and female double files, what an obscene and filthy act! ”
The founder of Ma Diao, the old master Ma Rufei, wrote the "Nanci Must Read" when he was in charge of the office, which contains "the shameful couple has no righteousness, male and female have the name of double file, the same livelihood, why order the wife and daughter to be ugly, the same livelihood, why burden the children and grandchildren to be ashamed", it can be seen that the double file of men and women has not been allowed in my way since ancient times. And there is no reason for a woman to participate in the meeting. ”
Jia Ziliang's face was pale, "And the first article of the Guangyu charter written by Mr. Ma is that all people in the same industry should not be in the company of female files, or teach female apprentices, handle business privately, and find out and discuss punishments"
"You see, this drunken fairy is surrounded by a group of wild bees and butterflies in Shanghai, and she actually came to participate in the meeting, and look at this "Jia Ziliang spread the newspaper on the table and stretched out his fingers" This report is still hinting that she is not only singing women's singles or women's doubles, but also fighting with others for men's and women's doubles!! Is it tolerable or unbearable! ”
"Hey, this is carrying a pig's head to the temple gate, and the kicking field is coming" Geng Jiaji said indignantly, Bai Xiongying next to him felt strange, and he looked dead just now and wanted to go back to Shanghai immediately.
If you want to say that Geng Jiaji is really upset for Yang Binkui, who just gave him a look, Bai Xiongying will not believe it, Secretary Geng is very good, but this open-mindedness is really a bit not like a big thing, and after a long contact, Bai Xiongying gradually understands that it is not unreasonable for this secretary to be stumbling for ten years.
Geng Jiaji's next sentence immediately made Bai Xiongying understand the crux of the problem, "Well, Lu Zui Xian, is that Zhou Yuquan's student, Lu Zui Xian, who is both beautiful and artistic?!" As he spoke, his neck stretched out, the whites of his eyes turned red, the blue tendons on his forehead burst out, and the huge Adam's apple at the mouth of his throat was squirming up and down with the sound of swallowing saliva.
Bai Xiongying knew that his widowhood had committed it again. When the two went to Cangzhou to listen to books together, Geng Jiaji fell in love with the charming Lu Zuixian at a glance, he is also a veteran in each class, and he also has a lot of joy in the lyrics with other women. This routine is naturally well understood.
said that it was a routine, but in fact, it was smashed with money. Secretary Geng's home is attached to thousands of acres of land, the crane is rich, and the rolling wealth brought by the public-private joint venture of the big tobacco trade makes his silver bullet offensive full of logistics and unfavorable.
After all, the opening of the story is to sing the beginning, which is actually an opportunity for the artist to make money, and the price is also fair. According to the rules, a calligraphy artist can only sing one opening chapter, but there are dozens of singers in the audience, so they adopt a disguised method.
After Mr. came to the stage, there would be a bookstore clerk standing next to him, holding a stack of small notes in his hand, tearing his throat and singing on the spot, "Mr. Zhang San sang the opening chapter of "Palace Resentment" a dozen", "Mr. Li Si ordered the opening chapter of "Antang Recognition of Niang" two dozen", "Mr. Wang Wu sang the opening chapter of "Kou Gong People Three Strikes", "Ah Liutou is a pair of British tweed pants, no, mistaken, next door Ah Liutou rubbed mahjong Tong Tian lost, when the ticket was in my hand, and it will be exchanged for candy to eat"...
One by one, fair and open, the highest price wins, in line with the basic principles of the market economy, this method instantly swept the large and small bookstores. But sometimes you come across two or more people who offer the same price. Most of those bidders will have another round of bidding between them.
Lu Zuixian looked at these blushing and thick-necked people who were all on the bar, and the price could only be shouted up, if they were not dissuaded in time at this time, it would inevitably fall into a "catch the plague" test afterwards, which would be very unfavorable to others and themselves.
So he smiled and said coquettishly, "Several of them are old listeners, don't hurt my harmony because of a small novel, Mr. Zhang wants to listen to "Xiaoxiang Night Rain", and Mr. Wang likes "Palace Resentment". It's all yin and sad tones, the sun is so good outside today, it's a bit out of place to listen to this, or how about I take the initiative to serve the two of you with a "pidgin"? I hope you two and all the old listeners will enjoy it."
Under normal circumstances, Mr. Zhang Wanger, who is like a cockfight, also gets off the donkey, and Lu Zuixian also accounts for two shares of the color here, and also has a good reputation for the sake of the listeners.
If you still can't figure it out, you must memorize the table type, and then other listeners in the audience should coax him, "You have to listen, you have to listen to it."
"Most of the banknotes have been felled, and the habitual head is felled, and the Pushan Villa is donating thin-skinned coffins, go, go."
"Yes, yes, throw down the banknotes, and you can also take a sign of mercy and benevolence back, and hang it on the door of the three-story pavilion to glorify your ancestors."
"Look at this appearance, what kind of mercy is a great benevolent, or a big dumpling of rice"
Most of the listeners of these high-end bookstores are well-educated, and under the influence of the gimmicks of gentlemen from all walks of life, they are all sharp and sharp, and they may not be ready to quarrel in person, but in this kind of scene of holding together and poking people's heads, everyone is a person with a lotus tongue, and a gun and a stick are down, even the steel cars in the concession can't parry.
At this time, Lu Zuixian saw that the situation was almost over, and the strings and pipa clicked a few times, and the audience instantly returned to silence as if listening to a holy decree.
So, waving the strings with his bare hands, his sandalwood teeth slightly exposed
"ABCD is popular, and "Ai Flai Hug Tai" learns two sounds. In the social field, "Simatu" said twice, "go to the gutter" pidgin. There is a "modern" young master "Qiao Qifang", who is a trainee in "Besco". Wearing a "forint refurbished" looks good, and "Tuoler" has only a few foreign ones in January. After singing the song, the audience laughed again and again, and the little turmoil just now disappeared invisibly.
