Chapter Twenty-Nine: Storytelling

The two of them were hungry and thirsty on the road, and when they were on the road, they practiced the cross talk of "Three Levels in a Row" seriously.

In less than two days, they had already practiced to a good degree, and they also walked on the official road, much faster than walking on the path.

On this day, I finally came to a small town called Wuniu Town, which was about the same size as Baixian County.

"Now there is more than an hour before lunch, so the two of us will go to the market and talk about the last paragraph, so as to earn a few copper plates and solve the lunch." Jiang Jiang said to Sun Xiaobei.

Sun Xiaobei was a little nervous and said, "What if no one gives money?" ”

"It's not going to be, is it?" Jiang Jiang smiled and said: "Let's let them have fun, it's much better than going directly to beg for money, remember to be sweet when the time comes, there will definitely be a harvest." ”

"I hope so." Sun Xiaobei still has little confidence.

When the two of them came to the bazaar, they first briefly walked around, and saw that there was a storyteller and two singing, and there were some people listening to it.

Sun Xiaobei was a little frightened at this time, and said to Jiang Jiang: "If we just stop there and start talking, how can anyone come to listen?" People have a sign for rapping and storytelling, but we don't have anything. ”

The signboard that Sun Xiaobei said was nothing more than a white cloth hanging on a bamboo pole, on which were written the words "storytelling and singing".

"What's so hard about this, don't you know how to use local materials?" Jiang Jiang didn't care.

She has been working part-time since she was a child, and she never feels embarrassed.

What's so embarrassing about making money by yourself?

Jiang Jiang pulled Sun Xiaobei to find a vacant land, took off the broken iron pot on Sun Xiaobei's back, and buckled it upside down on the ground. Picked up a branch and knocked it on the spot.

While knocking and shouting: "All the guest officers who come and go from the south to the north, stop and stand for a while!" The two of us brothers walked here and didn't have to be entangled, and said that the last funny book made a few copper plates.

Hey, this uncle, at first glance, you are a person with a lot of money, how do you care about these pennies? That sister-in-law, don't be busy, listen to us talk about the last book, and make sure to be three or five years younger. This boy must have read poetry books to the fullest, but you promise you haven't read this paragraph in the book. ”

Jiang Jiang opened his mouth and attracted a lot of people around him, which gave Sun Xiaobei a lot of confidence, and he was not as panicked as before.

"You two are clearly still children, what books can you say?" Someone in the crowd questioned.

"Isn't it, the storyteller has a big beard, how can he learn that complete set of books in a few years? I'm afraid these two guys are talking big here. Someone chimed in.

In the midst of everyone's doubts, Jiang Jiang opened his mouth with a smile: "Don't worry, the copper plate is in your purse, if you don't take it out, we won't be able to get it." When we are finished, if you think it is good, you will reward us with one or two eldest sons, and if you feel that your ears are dirty, then you can listen to the toad's cry and walk away. ”

When everyone heard Jiang Jiang say this, they felt that it made sense, anyway, they were wandering around the market and had nothing to do, so they had the right to listen to it.

Jiang Jiang cleared his throat and gave Sun Xiaobei a look.

Sun Xiaobei nodded slightly, indicating that he was ready. So Jiang Jiang and Sun Xiaobei began their performance:

"I'm going to tell you a little bit about the past." Jiang Jiang was the first to say.

"How long has it been? Was it yesterday or the day before yesterday? Sun Xiaobei said.

"Not long, not short, about a hundred years." Jiang Jiang replied. The time is set a little farther away, so that people can't tell the real from the fake.

"Where was that a hundred years ago?" Sun Xiaobei asked.

"You can ask, it was something that happened in Tiansheng Kingdom a hundred years ago." Jiang Jiang shook his head and said.

When people heard her say about Tiansheng Kingdom, they couldn't help but be interested.

"What happened in Tiansheng Kingdom? Sheng Guo was beaten by us that day, what good things can happen to it? Sun Xiaobei's face was disdainful, and his expression resonated with everyone. The people of the Great Qin Kingdom all looked down on the Tiansheng Kingdom, who let it be defeated.

"This is an ugly and ridiculous thing that happened in Tiansheng Kingdom, it really makes people laugh out of their teeth, I don't know if you want to hear it?" Jiang Jiang took the opportunity to start agitating the crowd.

When everyone heard her say this, of course they all wanted to hear it.

Jiang Jiang then opened his mouth with all his strength, sang and harmonized with Sun Xiaobei, and told the story of "Three Levels in a Row".

When everyone heard that Zhang Haogu, who was illiterate, he actually entered the examination room with a 9,000-year-old business card, and asked the two examiners to answer the paper for him, and he couldn't help but be angry and laughing, and gradually forgot that he was listening to a book and took it as true.

Jiang Jiang wanted this effect, and he and Sun Xiaobei continued to talk with their eyebrows.

From time to time, the crowd of onlookers burst into laughter, attracting the people around them, and slowly surrounded the three floors inside and three layers outside, and almost half of the people in the market came to listen.

Sun Xiaobei saw that there were many people coming, and he became more and more reckless. Although he is responsible for holding roots, he gags from time to time, or pretends to be stupid, and he is born with thief eyebrows, which can make people laugh.

In the last paragraph, Jiang Jiang held back and didn't speak.

Sun Xiaobei understood, turned over the iron pot, and said politely: "If you think you can listen to it, you will reward us with two dollars, but we are really waiting to buy rice for the pot." ”

Some people didn't want to pay and left, Jiang Jiang looked at it coldly, and almost half of them left.

But the rest of the people threw copper plates into the pot one after another, one penny each, and they made dozens of cents in just half an hour.

After Sun Xiaobei finished collecting the money, Jiang Jiang continued to speak.

After saying this story, the two of them bowed in a circle and said several words of thanks.

Those people haven't heard enough, and they all leave with some regret.

After everyone dispersed, Sun Xiaobei finally showed the emotions he was desperately enduring and said to Jiang Jiang happily: "When I was lucky, I only begged for one or twenty wen a day, but the two of us sat here today and made seventy or eighty wen, sister, you are really good!" ”

Jiang Jiang patted him on the shoulder and said, "This is also thanks to you, this money was earned by the two of us together, you should now believe that you can support yourself with your ability, right?" ”

"I believe it, this is still the first time I've grown up like this, and it's the first time I've made money with my ability in an honest way, and I feel really tough!" Sun Xiaobei said proudly.

"Let's go, let's buy food!" Jiang Jiang pulled Sun Xiaobei and said.

The two of them came to the place where meat and vegetables were sold in the market, and Jiang Jiang asked about the prices of various meats.

Knowing that the people of the Great Qin Kingdom do not like to eat animal offal, they sell it extremely cheaply.

So she spent a penny to buy a big pork belly, a few steamed buns, a live chicken, and a lot of salt.

Sun Xiaobei looked at the meat on the board, drooled, and was embarrassed to say.
