Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Washer of the Tang Dynasty

At the end of the Shangsi Festival, Li Chen took a day off and began to work, first of all, he recruited workers. Because Wang Xianyan protested, if he didn't recruit two more people, he was going to strike.

There is really no way, because he is busy, Li Chen has rarely spoken on stage recently, and it is Wang Xianyan who supports the scene alone. Think about it, how tiring it is for a person to talk for six hours a day.

So Li Chen had to ask the two newcomers to speak, on the one hand, there was a shift, so that Wang Xianyan would have to rest if he had a headache and brain fever one day.

There are two newcomers to speak, one is called Zhao Shuhai, and the other is called Deserter Wang... Wrong, it's King Taubin. It's just that this name, with that surname, is too much..., so it was misremembered by Li Chen.

They were all recommended by Wang Xianyan, Li Chen let them speak two paragraphs a little, and felt that it was okay, they would not have stage fright, and their voices and intonation were okay, so they agreed. Now he is not afraid of people plagiarizing his story, and he is fighting against him, and he is more lenient in terms of hiring people.

Now there are three people, and they take turns to perform on stage. One morning, one afternoon, and then a break, or when someone doesn't come, you can substitute for the shift.

In order to reward them for their motivation, their salaries are related to the performance of the wine shop. In addition to basically getting the bounty, they all get it, the wine shop has a commission for their time slots, they have a commission for the wine and food, and they also have a share of the merchandise.

At present, there are only prints around, but the Three Kingdoms and Journey to the West have long been finished, and now from the beginning, Li Chen has found someone to make a plate, and he wants to publish these two classic novels in a stereotyped book. At that time, this will also be a performance growth point.

Now in the wine shop, two newcomers are talking about new books, Li Chen's latest masterpiece, the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. This is not a Ming Dynasty novel, it is a Qing Dynasty novel Chu Ren obtained the work,

This is what he saw when he was in middle school, and now when he closes his eyes, he can still remember the rough printing, the poor paper, and the joy that it brought back then. In addition, what Xue Rengui is going to the east and Xue Dingshan is going to the west are currently being created.

He never lacks subject matter, but he is afraid that he will not have time to create it. He is desperately trying to squeeze out the time, like now, he is looking at a piece of land, what is it for? Book a new liquor store in the future, or he will have an entertainment city base in the future.

Li Chen really wants to get a bigger place and build an entertainment city according to his own ideas. This thing was not available in the Tang Dynasty.

I don't know why, the people of the Tang Dynasty just didn't have such a place with a variety of entertainment properties. Even in everyone's impression, there is a building with several floors high, and there are a bunch of warblers and swallows in it, waiting for the benefactor to come to the door. Each small room, inside is a cave of ecstasy, such a huge green building did not exist in the Tang Dynasty, and it is just a single-door brothel with three or five sex workers in it.

Li Chen wanted to create the kind of washer in the Tang Dynasty, which is called an entertainment city in modern times, and provide a new leisure occasion for the people of the Tang Dynasty. He also wanted to create a lot of modern entertainment and pastime in the Tang Dynasty, which he believed would bring him great benefits.

If it's just storytelling, he doesn't need much space. But in the future, will entertainment be just storytelling? Of course not, like puppet shows, various dramas, or mahjong, the quintessence of China, has not yet been seen in the Tang Dynasty. Not to mention, Li Chen plans to build a place that integrates multiple functions such as drinking, gambling, prostitution, and playing.

Therefore, the problem is, if he really wants to realize a huge entertainment city, he wants a small place, and it is not enough to have dozens of acres. In the Tang Dynasty, a decent residence covered an area of ten acres. In his planning, an entertainment city needs more than 10 different spaces to meet the needs of different people. And one space occupies about 600 square meters.

A space, a performance venue of appropriate size, called a theater in modern times, and a Goolan in the Song Dynasty. The size should be at least a few hundred people. In the Song Dynasty, it is said that it can accommodate more than 10 hook bars. Changed to a modern size, 8,000 square meters can't run away. In the Tang Dynasty, it took about a dozen acres, nearly twenty acres in size.

He's having a hard time thinking about where to find such a piece of land. Money, he has. Although it is not cheap to buy a piece of land of this size, he asked for a thousand yuan, because the location is good. He seriously sold this money and earned it in ten days and half a month.

It's just that it's useless to have money and no place to spend it. Now the problem is that he can't buy a suitable place, those Fang people are not stupid, and now he has money and nowhere to spend. No one wants to sell it.

But if he uses the rent, he is unwilling, worried that he will be taken back by others under some excuse, and when the time comes, he will start to make the same living by himself, so will he marry others for nothing?

Unexpectedly, when there was no money, I just thought about making money. But when he had money and relied on distilled liquor to make money, he was still faced with the problem of how to spend the money.

'Uncle, are you sure that's the case?' We're not looking for the wrong place, this land...', Li Chen came to see the land, and the big head followed. The big head seems to be particularly interested in business matters, and I heard that Li Chen is going to see the land, and in order to build a new restaurant with a huge area, he has to follow.

That's what the tooth man said. Li Chen's face was also uncertain. Well, now the land problem is solved. Li Chen tried hard to find land, but a tooth man told him that he had found a suitable size vacant land at a cheap price, but...

'What about the swamp, if you hire someone to fill in the soil, the swamp can also be filled. …。 Li Chen gritted his teeth and said. 'I can't do it. The big head said hesitantly.

'If you can't make it, you have to do it.' First of all, this land is very cheap, and it is simply given away for free, and dozens of times are enough. Again, look at his geographical location.... This marshland is well located on the border between the north and east of the city.

Originally, it was also a scenic spot that was not lost to Chang'an Qushui, which was originally a lake, and there was still living water connecting Surabaya. It's just that because the river is silted up and no one wants to dredge it, it slowly turns into a swamp.

'Look, around here. Li Chen compared the front and back, "close to the lively east of the city, but also close to the north of the city, which can attract many people." It is completely feasible to spend a little money and fill in the land. Li Chen's idea is that if he can't buy suitable land, he will get it himself. This land is located in a prime location, as long as the land is filled, it is a good base for the entertainment city.

If you count it, you might hire your own workers to fill in the land than if you bought the same amount of land. Spend a few hundred, it should be enough, and maybe you don't have to fill it all up, you can find someone to dig a well, make a small pond, and the scenery of the entertainment city can be more elegant.

'Alright, let's go back.' Tell the tooth man that I'm satisfied. Li Chen clapped his hands happily, "Yes." The big head is also happy, and I admire it very much, my uncle really always thinks that people can't think of it, and it seems that ordinary people are very bad, think about it from another angle, and think amazingly, Uncle is really amazing.

'Yes, maybe... On the way back, Li Chen was thinking about how to fill the soil, when he suddenly remembered two cases, the same was filled in the soil, maybe he could refer to it, but that was a later story, after returning home, he immediately found Ergou.

That's how it happened. 'It's so damnable, that cow three, no, cow four.' Ergou said angrily.

'Don't be angry first, Uncle Jiao has brought you something, can you handle it?' 'Uncle, you said, I didn't do anything you told me.' Ergou patted his chest and promised, 'What is it?' You don't read, you don't like to take a bath, I say every day that you can't change it. ’

Those two don't count. Ergou sneered, "Except for those two, I haven't done anything else, uncle, don't worry." ’

'It's no wonder that you can rest assured, originally, I don't want to put any more burden on you, you are learning the most important thing now, what is the burden, should wait until you are an adult. Well, I mean.... Li Chen was very embarrassed.

According to her original intention, these children who are still in the kingdom in modern society should not be burdened with responsibilities that they do not need to bear. Now they have to study hard. However, due to external changes and external environmental influences, he had to put this burden on the child.

'Uncle, you say, this is our home, there are bad people who want to destroy him today, and everyone should do their part. Looking at Ergou's shiny and expectant eyes, Li Chen knew that he shouldn't always treat them as children, the poor have to have children in charge early, not to mention that they were still some people who were full for one meal and hungry for three meals before, which is even more pitiful than the children of poor families in modern society.

'Uncle wants you to do that.' Li Chen's idea was that he wanted to build an intelligence network. He planned to ask Ergou to recruit which children and use these children to inquire about some news.

Don't say what these children can find out, like the shochu shop, if it wasn't for someone to report the news, maybe they would have succeeded.

Everyone thinks that the children don't understand anything and can't do anything, and even Niu Laosi didn't take these children in his eyes, after all, he recruited his subordinates, and he usually had to raise them when he was fine. You can't do anything by recruiting these, and you can't even get a bucket of rice to fight, what's the use?

But because of this, people ignore children, and people ignore them, and people don't know how to embankment. If you want to say that there is no use of children in history, the nursery rhymes in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, are they made up by the children themselves?

'Be safe, okay?' After Li Chen explained to Ergou, he was very uneasy and admonished, "Don't think about your own safety, think about their safety, no matter what, Uncle doesn't want to see any accidents happen to you." ’
