Chapter 474: One Hundred Taels of Gold Sing a Song

There has been no progress in improving the production technology of colored glass, but on the side of Yanlou, Rong Niangzi sent someone to pass the word, saying that she wanted to see Qin Yong.

So, Qin Yong had no choice but to put down what he was doing for the time being, and took a day to go to Yanlou first. After arriving at the Yan Tower, Rong Niangzi told Qin Yong that the renovation project of her Yan Tower was almost complete, but if she wanted to open it, there seemed to be some problems.

What's the problem? In fact, it is easy to say. Didn't Qin Yong make a plan for Mrs. Rong to only be a "singer" in the future, and no longer be a "movie star"? However, among the songs that Rong Niangzi can sing now, there is only one such as "The Moon Represents My Heart". Even if this theme and style of music are novel, it may not be enough to support a theater, right?

Qin Yong hadn't thought too much about this problem before, but since Rong Niangzi had raised it at this time, he naturally wanted to solve it.

"Well, isn't the new casino going to open in a few days? Why don't you ask Rong Niangzi to be a guest performer? ”

If Qin Yong wanted to think of a way to get the best of both worlds, it didn't seem too difficult. No, this Rong lady has just asked such a question, and he is already a little eyebrow-raising.

This is indeed a good solution. Because what the new gambling house lacks most now is popularity, and Qin Yong himself, because he is afraid that the limelight will be too strong, it is impossible to get ahead, but now that there is Rong Niangzi as this guest performer, there will be enough gimmicks. Because, after all, Rong Niangzi used to be one of the few Oiran who could keep pace with the Red Lady in Bianliang City, so if it was to publicize that Rong Niangzi appeared on the opening day of the new gambling house, it would undoubtedly attract the attention of countless people.

"Guest performers?"

When Rong Niangzi heard Qin Yong's idea, she was a little stunned for a while. The term "guest performer" is for her. It was still a new word, so she naturally couldn't understand what Qin Yong meant for a while. However, Qin Yong quickly explained to her clearly, that is, it was just a change of venue.

However, this statement still makes Rong Niangzi still have some doubts. Because, in this era, there is no concept of celebrities "going to the hole", and Oiran like the Red Lady and Rong Niangzi generally sing operas. It will only be in her own theater, like the red lady before, leaving her own theater and going to perform in Rong Niangzi's Yan Building, which is already extremely rare. It is even less common to go to other non-theater places to perform.

Of course, less is not the same as nothing. If it is those rich and noble families, who spend a lot of money to invite the red lady and the Rong lady to sing songs, then it is okay. That's it, though. It's that you have to be rich, and in addition to being rich, you also have to sell your face to the matchmakers. And then, there's a very important point. This is not a public performance, but just for you personally. Moreover, a wealthy and noble family like this usually has a theater built in his own house. Therefore, the red ladies are not considered to perform in any non-theater place.

"Going to the gambling house to sing? Qin Gongzi, is this good? ”

finally understood what Qin Yong meant. Rong Niangzi couldn't make such a decision all of a sudden. Because, according to past experience, it is already an unprecedented thing for an Oiran like her to perform in a place that is not a theater, let alone going to a place like a gambling house, which is simply self-surrendering.

Gambling house, according to general experience, it is a mixed place, the noble son with a lot of money can go, and the ordinary butcher pawn can also enter, so you can imagine how low that level will be. However, Mrs. Rong didn't know that the newly opened gambling house opened by Qin Yong and Ding's father and son was a little different from ordinary gambling houses, that is, this gambling house would only do some relatively high-end business, so there would be no mixed scenes like in the past.

"Of course. Don't worry, this gambling house is not the other gambling house, but the gambling house co-founded with the Ding family, and it will become the loudest and most high-end gambling house in Bianliang City in the future, so you will not lose face if you go there to sing. ”

Qin Yong said. He probably guessed the scruples of Rong Niangzi in his heart, so he couldn't help but comfort Rong Niangzi at this time. His words were not wrong, yes, now their new gambling house is indeed unknown, but he is confident that it will be a blockbuster in time, so what he said to Rong Niangzi at this time is not a big deal.

"I see. Since it was done by Qin Gongzi and Ding Gongzi, the slave family is naturally obliged. ”

Hearing that this gambling house was originally jointly run by Qin Yong and the Ding family, Rong Niangzi gritted her teeth and finally agreed. However, when she agreed to come down, the "resolute" expression on her face really made Qin Yong cry and laugh a little.

As for it? This matter doesn't seem to be so difficult to do, and it can even be said to be a win-win situation, but how did you get to Rong Niangzi, but it seems to have become a big difficulty? Look at Rong Niangzi's expression, it feels as if it was just for Qin Yong's face, so she reluctantly agreed.

This is more or less the case. Because, in Rong Niangzi's subconscious, going to a gambling house to perform really can't bring her any benefits. But why did you still promise Qin Yong? That's because at present, she can only "believe" in Qin Yong. Because, when she transferred more than sixty percent of Yanlou's shares to Qin Yong, she had already cut herself off. Therefore, in this case, she can only "believe" Qin Yong unconditionally now.

"Uh, Miss Rong, you seem to have misunderstood. This is not gratuitous, and when the time comes, I will ask the gambling house to pay more than 100 taels of gold as a reward. ”

Qin Yong guessed that Rong Niangzi had indeed misunderstood what she meant, so he could only continue to explain. This explanation is indeed enough, so it immediately attracted the attention of Rong Niangzi.

"One hundred taels of gold?"

This amount was enough to shock Rong Niangzi, because even if she was one of the Oiran of Bianliang City, she rarely encountered such a guest who spent hundreds of gold. Moreover, according to what Qin Yong meant just now, what he asked Rong Niangzi to sing in the gambling house was just a tune. Can you get paid for a hundred taels of gold with just one song? That's a lot of money.

"That's right. After your Yanlou reopens in the future, there will definitely be other people who also want to invite you to be a guest performer, and when the time comes, you will also make a price according to this standard. ”

Since Qin Yong wants to build Rong Niangzi into a "singer" in this era, it is inevitable that Rong Niangzi will also learn the money-making methods of various stars in later generations, that is, "going to the hole". Don't think about looking at this kind of "acupuncture" method of making money, generally celebrities with status, casually go to the acupoint, and it may even reach six or even seven figures, and after accumulating in the long run, it is really not a small amount.

"Okay, okay. Qin Gongzi, the slave family listens to you. ”

When Mrs. Rong heard Qin Yong say that there was still a gratuity, she agreed after thinking about it. Because, at this time, she probably understood that the new gambling house in Qin Yong's mouth should indeed not be like any of the previous gambling houses, otherwise, it would not be possible for it to take out more than a hundred taels of gold at once to ask her to sing a tune.

"Hmm. However, it is probably not good for you to sing a new song outside. The new song will still be released when your Yanlou reopens, so now, let's practice a new song. Qin Yong said.

The new song he said was naturally "The Moon Represents My Heart", which had been handed over to Rong Niangzi some time ago, this song with an extremely novel theme and style, when it was taken out, it immediately won the favor of Rong Niangzi and Lin Daier. However, the lyrics of this song are indeed straightforward, and the content is all affectionate love words, if you take it to the gambling house to sing it, it is indeed a bit unusual, right? Therefore, Qin Yong planned to change the song for Mrs. Rong.

But what should I change for? If you change a song that is too straightforward, I am afraid that it will reduce the sensation caused by the reopening of Yanlou in the future, so in this case, it is more suitable for the kind of song that is more formal and at the same time has a bit of novelty.

"Okay, in that case, let's use "Water Tune Song Head"."

Qin Yong's thinking didn't last too long, and when he thought of the poems he had made up in Yangzhou, he soon had a good idea in his heart.

"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky, I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace. I want to go back by the wind, but I am afraid of Qionglou Yuyu, and the high place is unbearable. Dance to figure out how the shadow seems to be in the world. Turn Zhu Pavilion, low Qihu, shine sleeplessly. There should be no hatred, what is the long time to say goodbye? People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete. I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles. ”

That's right, his idea is to take the song "Water Tune Song Head" that made him famous and was called "Yongyue Gongzi" to Rong Niangzi to sing. However, this singing is not the other's singing. The word, originally in this era, there was already a relatively fixed way of singing, and the general name of the word brand also limited the specific singing method of the word, but in the modern society of later generations, this "Water Tune Song Head" has a more modern and beautiful singing method, so Qin Yong's meaning is to move this singing method to this era.
