Chapter 68: When the Speech Begins

After resting for two days, on the third day, Li Chen took Sanxiao and went to Shengming Temple again to continue performing Journey to the West. It was still under the tree that day, after buying breakfast on the side of the road, a few people got busy, preparing props, and setting up tables and chairs.

'It's this way, it's this way, it's about to start, yes, mother, hurry up. When Xiaohu took out the gong and was about to strike the gong to attract customers, a child had already run over, running in front, and from time to time turning back to greet a man behind him.

Seeing this scene, Li Chen smiled. The child and his father, dressed up, obviously looked like a rich man, and they didn't even look at their clothes, but they saw two people behind the man, one was obviously a follower and bodyguard, and they knew that this person had a good family background. Farther away, a richly dressed young woman, followed by a young girl who was clearly a maid.

The young woman raised her hand and beckoned, "Child, you run slower, beware of falling, Chun Tao, leave me alone, go to Xiaolang's side, don't let him fall." The young woman waved slightly, and hurried to catch up.

'Uncle Thirteen, what are you laughing at?' Seeing that Li Chen was a little happy, the puppy asked strangely, "It's nothing, it's just a little happy to see an audience come to the door." Li Chen felt that he should have succeeded initially, attracting a group of loyal audiences, and his income should be more secure in the future.

'Synopsis. Soon, a few people packed up and got ready, Xiaohu finished beating the gong, and quickly ran back to the backstage, seeing that the preparations were almost complete, Li Chen began to narrate.

'A few days ago, we said that the Monkey King Sun Wukong, making trouble in the Heavenly Palace, the heavenly court was furious, and sent Li Tianwang and Prince Nezha, to point the Twenty-Eight Nights, the Nine Yao Star Officials, the Twelve Yuanchen, the Five Directions Jiedi, the Four Values Gong Cao, the East and West Star Dou, the North and South Two Gods, the Five Mountains and the Four Blasphemy, and the Universal Stars, a total of 100,000 heavenly soldiers, and 18 heavenly nets, and the Nether went to Huaguo Mountain to capture Sun Wukong. As usual, I had to give a brief introduction to Sun Wukong's origin, and said that where I talked about it in the last issue, the story began, and the adults and children in the audience had a few days ago, and they couldn't sit still for a long time, they clapped their hands and got applause, and Li Chen began to speak.

I saw that Sun Wukong, who had been refined by Taishang Laojun for seven hundred and forty-nine days, but he could not be refined, as soon as the furnace was opened, the great sage covered his eyes and jumped out, and the nine stars were closed, and the four heavenly kings were invisible. Good monkey spirit, there is poetry as proof. ’

'Sun Wukong turned the heavens upside down, the Jade Emperor was helpless, and the young Laojun suggested that he go to the West to ask the Buddha to take action. He immediately passed on the decree, and the You Yiling official and Yi Shengzhen went to the west to ask the Buddha to surrender. 'At the end of the sentence, a gong sounded,

This is the end of today, as for the Monkey King, how did Sun Wukong fight with Shakyani Buddha, and what was the victory. … Let's break it down next time. ’

Another day passed, Li Chen talked about the eighth chapter of Journey to the West, Sun Wukong was caught by Taishang Laojun into the alchemy furnace to be refined, but after the seventeenth day of the seven-seven ceremony, Sun Wukong was not only not refined, but also refined his fiery eyes, jumped out of the Dan furnace, the heavenly soldiers and generals could not be cured, and the Jade Emperor could only ask Shakyamuni Buddha to take action.

A few days ago, I talked about it five and a half times, but today I only talked about it three times, and when I talked about it eight and a half times, Li Chen felt that the time was well controlled. Because it was the beginning before, Li Chen was trying to catch the audience as soon as possible, but now there is no need to be so anxious, and secondly, this is a very exciting part, and the next few times may be a little boring, if you say it according to the progress of the last time, Li Chen is afraid that it will not attract repeat customers.

Moreover, he is now talking about more than just Journey to the West, he slowly recalled some of the TV series he had seen about Journey to the West before, and added the plot to it, making the plot a lot richer. The degree of popularity, just look at the reward of 700 Wen today, you can know.

The sky was so dark that it couldn't stop the good mood of the three children, the puppy took the lead in singing a song out of tune, and Ah Xiang and Xiaohu should be in harmony. Only Li Chen bowed his head and pondered...

(Seven hundred wen.) If that's all there is to it, that's not enough. ), the money is earned, but Li Chen is a little anxious, Zhao seems to be like this, he and Sanxiao don't have to worry about life. But that's just it.

Li Chen carefully calculated that he and Sanxiao would have to pay for their living expenses for a month, which was about four yuan. If you add to the bathhouse, and occasionally eat a good meal, it should be more consistent.

Now he and Sanxiao are still boarding, and if they want to rent a house outside, they will probably have to be more consistent. All of them add up, you need six times a month, and you need five times to save a little.

And what about income? In the future, if you maintain a lecture every two days, and you have a level of 700 wen every day, you can get it in a month, and more than ten times, it is considered ten times. In this way, there can be about four or five runs left.

It's just that the cost of these four or five runs has to be deducted, and the most basic thing is to ask for a big candle every two times, and to remove a few hundred yuan. If you buy a large candle for a long time, one is counted as three hundred... Thinking of this, Li Chen broke out in a cold sweat, so he almost didn't make any money.

(No, no, no, I have to change my course anyway, I can't burn candles anymore, I can't afford to burn them.) Li Chen didn't dare to hit in the wide direction, his habit was to count the worst.

Along the way, Li Chen was planning, how to save expenses, the most important thing is to save the money for candles, otherwise, I am afraid that there will be a loss every month. Candles are fixed expenses, and other props can also be broken, such as soybeans, which are used to simulate the sound of rain and waves.

Soybeans are still a small amount of money, and the most important thing is a few hundred Wen Wen candles, as long as the candles are saved, other problems are not big. After eating the pancakes for dinner, Li Chen washed up and fell asleep, and he was still thinking about it before going to bed. However, he didn't know that an even bigger surprise would await him the next day.

The next day, Li Chen was active, while thinking about how to save expenses, he had to spend a lot of money, in addition to those basic props and living expenses, in order to maintain his throat, he also spent money to buy honey and moisten the throats of a few people, which was taught by Xiaohong. Unless he lectures every day, he can't afford these expenses.

What should I do, if the candle is not used, the sun can only be used, but the sun will move. Li Chen was absent-minded, eating the leftover pancakes from yesterday. The so-called pancake is mixed with mixed flour with mixed vegetables and then fried in oil, and I also think very much about scallion pancakes, but I just replace the green onion with mixed vegetables. Because it is too oily, it can be stored for a long time. Li Chen bought a lot last night, both for dinner and for breakfast.

'Why did you get back?' Early this morning, Sanxiao got up earlier than Li Chen, and ran out to play early. Because Li Chen gave them a little pocket money, Sanxiao was very excited.

Because in the past, the three elementary schools had some money, and they had to save some money, otherwise they would starve to death. It was the first time I could spend whatever I wanted, and I didn't have to think about what to eat tonight, so I was very excited and ran out early in the morning.

It's not that the income is not enough, how can there be money for children to spend indiscriminately. Li Chen also gritted his teeth and gave it to them, he could find a way to save the money and find a way to earn it, but he was happy that he couldn't give it to the children, he hoped that the three children could be happy. Being rich is not necessarily happy, but the poor and hungry are so afraid that the three little ones have a little spare money in their hands, and they can buy snacks and jewelry casually, which is enough to make them happy. It's just that Li Chen originally thought that Sanxiao would play until the afternoon and come back, but he came back early.

'Uncle Thirteen. Sanxiao didn't answer Li Chen's question immediately, looked at each other left and right for a while, and finally pushed Ah Xiang out to speak, "That... Well... Oh, I'm not going to say it, you say. ’

'What's the matter, are you in any trouble?' Li Chen was vigilant in his heart, this is very similar to when he was a child, he broke the glass of the neighbor's house, was caught by others and wanted to lose money, and he faced his parents and vomited.

I'll say it's okay. The puppy jumped out, "Uncle Thirteen, we just want to ask, you gave us pocket money, can we still get by?" "Oh, that, I didn't tell you, the money doesn't matter. You're so serious about giving you a little reward. Li Chen thought that Sanxiao was worried, and after the money was spent, they would not have a meal, and comforted them.

Well, we don't have to do with that pocket money. Then ask Uncle Thirteen for one thing? What's going on? Li Chen felt very strange, "If you have something, just say it, you keep the money, just give you pocket money, I don't care how you use it, but when you run out, you can only wait for next month." ’

Then we'll talk about it. Seeing Li Chen agree, Xiaohu also spoke, "Ergou, big head, you come in." After speaking, two sloppy children rushed in after him.

The second dog was about ten years old, with tattered clothes and dirty hair. Well? You ask, why haven't you met, you will know that he is Ergou, because there are only two people, and then the big head will know that it is the big head at a glance... Probably because of the very thin body, the head seems to be big, and I don't know if it's malnutrition. In appearance, the big head is about seven or eight years old, but it looks a little cleaner than the second dog.

'What's going on with them?' Li Chen was shocked, how could this child still grow on its own, and it was not my child.

'Hello Uncle Thirteen', after the two children came in, they all said hello and stopped talking. "Uncle Thirteen, can we do without pocket money, and then you can leave the second dog and the big head behind?", Ah Xiang said timidly.

'Oh my God, where did they get it?' "Uncle Thirteen, the second dog, they heard us say that we have a proper livelihood and pocket money, and they usually can't even eat enough, so they envy us very much. Xiaohu explained, "We used to help each other. Whoever has food will try to share it with everyone, and now we have you to take us in and teach us puppet shows, so that we can eat enough every day. ’

"We don't want pocket money in the future, Uncle Thirteen, can you please take them in?" ', the puppy illustrated, 'they will also help seriously, as long as there is something to eat.' ’

Li Chen almost fell into a coma when he heard it, and there were two more... What do you mean not to give you pocket money, just take them in, two more, the little pocket money per moonlight, that two more mouths, or the most able to eat children.

'Well, no, now we've got a puppet show that's just opened. It doesn't take that many people. Li Chen thought for a while, and refused ruthlessly, he really couldn't afford to raise two more mouths, "Moreover, don't forget, we are staying now, and if we want to take in two more people, we have to ask the owner of the house first." ’

We asked, and Sister Xiaohong said that as long as you agree, it doesn't matter if there are two more. ', Ah Xiang's innocent big eyes Za Azad.

'Uncle Thirteen, we beg you. After saying that, all five children knelt down.
