Chapter 41 The Famous Mover
"I heard that no, Luoyang City is about to start to be lively!" A man wearing a hat in the middle of the group of people sitting and drinking tea took a sip of tea and couldn't help but say such a sentence!
"Why is it so lively!" Someone cucked in.
"As soon as you look at it, you don't pay attention to what is happening in Luoyang City!"
"Tell me what's going on?" There was another person next to him who answered the call.
"Do you know Qingfeng Pavilion, the largest flower building in Luoyang?"
"Isn't that the Qinglou? What good can be inside a kiln? Isn't that just the hey-hey-hey-hey? One of them laughed lewdly.
"Alas—what a heart! It's just that people look obscene, and their hearts are also obscene. You're hopeless, if it's all that, I'll say it? Insulting Sven! The man in the hat glanced at the lewd man and continued, "Seifukaku was selected by the General's Mansion as the venue for the Oiran Contest, do you know about the Oiran Contest?" Hmph - I'm here to tell you that the general cooperated with a mysterious person to hold the first Oiran Contest and the Talent Contest, and this series of operations was operated by this mysterious person, and the general only played a deterrent role. It is said that the first place winner of the Oiran Contest will win the title of the world's first beauty, and the first place winner of the Talent Contest will be the world's first romantic talent, as well as generous bonuses and prizes. ”
"Oh—how about we go too?" A man said suddenly.
"Cut—it's you, forget it! Do you know what Oiran is comparing to a genius this time? In addition to paying the registration fee, Oiran must also be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, and dance; There are two conditions for the primary selection of talents, either to pay an application fee of one hundred taels of silver, or to go through three levels, which are to compose poems, compose music, and solve puzzles. As soon as someone solves a level, someone will immediately change to a new one. The difficulty of being opportunistic is not ordinarily great - either you have money or you have talent! The man in the hat sighed as he spoke.
"Hurry-hurry-go! There are three questions hanging out at the door of Biyue Xuan, and some people have already tried to break through. ”
"Whoa-" The teahouse was suddenly deserted, and everyone ran towards Biyuexuan Restaurant.
There are three long banners hanging outside Biyuexuan Restaurant, the first of which reads "Write a poem, no subject matter"; The second banner reads, "Composer for one song, no subject only; The third question is the next link of "national affairs, family affairs, world affairs, and everything is concerned".
"Ladies and gentlemen, Biyuexuan Restaurant is entrusted by the General's Mansion to accept the selection of talents from all over the country for half a month. As long as you can answer one of the above three questions correctly, it will be counted as passing the initial selection, and there is another way to pay one hundred taels of silver at the door to receive the identity certificate of passing. The Talent Contest only needs the preliminary round, semi-finals, and finals, and the final competition for the first place will win the title of the world's first, as well as 100,000 taels of silver, and you can also choose any of the top five beauties in the Oiran Contest to spend the night together. ”
As soon as these words came out, the crowd below suddenly went crazy, this is completely based on strength, as long as you are outstanding, you can stand out, and finally you have fame, money, and beauties all at once, it is simply a pie in the sky!
"In Xia Li Yannian, then it will be ugly! Jiangnan can pick lotus, lotus leaves He Tiantian. Between the lotus leaves, the east of the lotus leaves, the west of the lotus leaves, the south of the lotus leaves, and the north of the lotus leaves. ”
"Okay-pass-please come up and get your identification!"
"Go up the mountain to pick the turnips, and go down the mountain to meet the old husband. Kneel down and ask the deceased husband, what is the newcomer like? Although the newcomer is intact, he is not as good as the old man. The colors are similar, but the claws are not the same. The newcomer enters through the door, and the old man goes through the door. New artificial weaving, so artificial weaving. One horse per day, more than five zhang of weaving. Compare the newcomer to the original, and the newcomer is not as good as the old. ”
"The autumn wind is sorrowful and sorrowful, and it is sorrowful when it comes out, and it is sorrowful when it enters. Whoever is in the seat, who is not worried. It makes me white-headed. There is a lot of wind in the hudi, and the trees are repaired. As I move farther and farther away from home, my clothes are getting slower and slower. The mind cannot be spoken, and the wheel of the intestine turns. ”
......
"Young master, your idea is really amazing, there are a total of thirty-six Qinglou registered for the Oiran Contest so far, and we have now earned one million taels of silver from the registration fee and clothing training fee, and the speed of money is faster than gambling money, and the most important thing is safety." Zhou An took the participants of the Oiran Contest and said to Zhou Yu, he admired how the young master's brain was long? The eyeballs are the attention to make money.
"What's the situation over there in Biyuexuan?" Zhou Yu knew that if he used the methods of the future generations to operate this matter, it would be foolproof. Think about the talent shows of later generations, which is not crazy to promote through newspapers, TV stations, radio, and the Internet, and then use the water army to hype up and improve the popularity of the event, and then stimulate people's desires with rich rewards, and finally get the benefits not of the contestants but the radio, judges, and sponsors.
"So far, no one has tried the third question, and the most people have passed the first question. It's only the first day of the competition, and more people will come in the future-and, Shi Ah seems to be leaving, I don't know what you mean, young master? Zhou An's voice is getting lower and lower, and Shi A has been together for almost two years, although Shi A is not smiling, but he is indeed an ancient and enthusiastic knight, and suddenly proposed to leave Zhou Yu, Zhou An felt that Shi A was too uninteresting, Zhou Yu followed left and right when he was in the middle of the day, and got up and left when he had nothing, what kind of chivalrous man is a hero!
"Zhou An, you call Shi Ah for me - I'll talk to him, if he insists on leaving, then let him go! But since then, they have met as passers-by-" Zhou Yu is quite satisfied with Shi A's martial arts and character, the only thing he is dissatisfied with is that he obeys his master Wang Yue's words, his industry and cultivated subordinates are all behind Shi A's back, it must be Wang Yue who feels that he has offended the generals He Jin and Yuan Sikong, and it is a little difficult to turn over, so he let his apprentice Shi A leave himself as soon as possible to find a suitable master for investment.
"Young master, you're looking for me—" Shi Ah kept the posture of a swordsman, dressed in a fine suit and holding a sword in his hand.
"Shi A-Zhou An said you want to resign from me? I don't know if I, Zhou Yu, have done a bad job in those places, and I don't deserve your loyalty? You might as well say it clearly-" Zhou Yu doesn't want to be confused with Shi A, if he answers that he is talking about his master's order, then Zhou Yu will let Shi A leave immediately, such a dead eye who can't tell the difference between good and bad will be a time bomb in front of him sooner or later.
"Young Master, since I've talked about this, I'll say it straight, since I was sent to the Zhou Mansion by the master to protect the young master's safety, I was a little disdainful at the beginning, thinking that you are not just a gentleman who can play tricks and have a good father? After a long time, I felt that my cognition was wrong, and I don't know why the young master always had something to hide from me, as if he was guarding against me? What impressed me the most was the assassination of the crown prince, the assassins who came at that time were all good and ruthless, but I didn't expect you to bring His Royal Highness the prince back intact in the end. If a person like you either has peerless martial arts or has a resourcefulness that transcends ordinary people, otherwise it is impossible to escape the pursuit of the killer. But I don't want to do nothing for a lifetime, I can't play my role here in the young master, my ambition is different from that of the master, his old man's ambition is to be an official, and my ambition is to make my blood boil. Shi Ah poured out all the words that he had been holding back for two years.
"Shi Ah - since you are all open and honest, I will also tell you the reason why I reuse you, why your master Wang Yue, as the number one swordsman in the world, stooped down to be a martial arts teacher with the crown palace and part-time to protect the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. To put it mildly, he is a complete official fan, but he doesn't want to think that he was born recklessly, can he really have a place in this court? For example, what about the great general He Jin? Still has a reputation as a butcher. Didn't you send you here just to take a fancy to me being chosen as the prince's companion? What's the point of doing this? Isn't it good to laugh at the world? I give you two choices here, one is to follow the hard work and I will ensure that you will be prosperous and rich in your life, and your achievements in this life will definitely not be a guard. The second is to continue to go back and follow your master to be a guard for others. Give you time to think about it—" Zhou Yu rubbed his sour head and waved his hand to signal Shi A to go down and think about it first.
"See the lord - his subordinate Shi A is willing to follow the lord and become famous in the world-" Shi A did not go out, but put down his sword and knelt down on one knee to worship Zhou Yu as the lord. He thought that instead of taking care of the home for the rest of his life, it was better to follow Zhou Yu, this son was not a thing in the pool, and when he encountered a dragon in the wind and clouds, he might also give himself a chance. But when he thought of Master's place, he had a headache.
