The work in Nafu City is proceeding in an orderly manner, and on the royal capital, the story of the mermaid is slowly fermenting.

Wendy still began to tell this story about mermaids in the outer city of the royal capital, and after singing the song, the onlookers below shed tears and took out coins from their pockets and threw them to Wendy as a reward.

Looking at the pile of coins that had formed a small hill below, Wendy's heart was filled with endless joy, not because she had never received a reward, but a joy of being recognized, a sense of accomplishment that her efforts were recognized by others.

"Thank you all for listening, and I'll be here again tomorrow." Wendy bowed deeply to the crowd below.

In the next few days, Wendy will tell the story of the mermaid here, and there are more and more onlookers, and she gets more and more rewards, and every day after she goes back, she will summarize the stories and skills she told during the day, and there is anything wrong with it, in this positive feedback, her skills are growing at a rate visible to the naked eye every day, and the story of the mermaid is becoming more and more beautiful.

Gradually, Wendy's reputation became quite famous in the outer city of the royal capital, and the inhabitants of the royal capital heard the story of the mermaid, even if they had not heard it.

You can hear people talking about mermaids in the streets and alleys.

"Did you say the prince would come back to see the mermaid at last?" A girl asked, wiping tears from her eyes, apparently having just returned from Wendy's story.

"I don't think so, he's a prince, he must go back to his kingdom to find other good-looking princesses, so he won't come back." The boy replied.

"Humph! You don't understand anything! The prince loves the mermaid princess so much, he will definitely come back! ”

The boy said stiffly: "You have said that he is a prince, who can stop him if he wants to come back!" He must have changed his mind after returning to the kingdom, he is a scumbag, if I would definitely not do this! ”

"Humph!" The girl stomped her feet angrily, so anxious that she was about to cry, "You don't understand at all!" I'm going home! ”

"Don't go, didn't you say you're going to eat in the restaurant when you're ready?" The boy chased after him, still chattering, "Why are you angry, it must be because of that prince, I told you that he is a scumbag, and he can't be angry with that kind of person." Come with me to dinner, I've been booking the restaurant for a long time, and it's all what you like. ”

"I said it! I want to go home! Don't come with me, you come with me and I'll give you two punches! The girl warned with an angry fist.

Only the boy was left at the corner of the street, with a bouquet of flowers in his hand, not knowing what he had done wrong.

……

At the end of the day, Wendy bowed and thanked the audience as usual, and then picked up the tips, which amounted to nearly five gold coins, and now she could earn as much in a day as she could in the previous month.

As soon as he raised his head, he saw several huge figures standing in front of him, and Wendy was so frightened that she took a few steps back with the bounty money she was holding, looked over with a vigilant face, and shouted: "Don't mess around, the city guard is not far here, even if you steal my money, you will be caught." ”

Wendy didn't want to be robbed of the fruits of her hard-earned labor, so she could only warn like this.

Behind the tall figures came an old man who looked like a steward, and only a few gray hairs were left on his head.

The old man coughed a few times and said, "Ahem, this lady doesn't need to panic, we didn't come here to snatch your money." ”

The vigilance in Wendy's eyes still did not let go, and she still hugged her bounty tightly, she began to wander when she was a teenager, and she had seen a lot of ugly human nature, so she would not believe the other party's words so easily.

"And what do you mean?" Wendy asked, looking at the other party a few times.

The people in front of them give people a fierce and vicious feeling, and even Wendy can see the scars everywhere on their bodies, coupled with the horizontal flesh on their faces, it is hard to believe that they are not bad people.

The old man glanced at the people beside him, and they took a few steps back in amusement, leaving the two to continue talking.

"Sorry for the misunderstanding. These are the thugs in our opera house, and as you know, it's inevitable that there will be some troubles in our industry, so it's essential. ”

"The opera house?" Wendy's eyes widened with curiosity.

The old man politely replied, "Yes, I am the steward of the Dayas Opera House, and I would like to invite you to play a story about mermaids." ”

Wendy's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, she had naturally heard of the Dayas Opera House, which was a well-known opera house in the royal capital, and many stars who became popular overnight came out of it, she had a dream before that was to be able to enter here to perform her talents, but when this opportunity was placed in front of her, she couldn't believe it.

Seeing that Wendy didn't speak, the old man thought that she was taking care of something, and said: "Don't worry, the people in our opera house are very professional, and they will definitely help you tell this story well, you see what kind of actors you want, we can find them for you, the mermaid's words are a little difficult to find, but with some magic skills, you can still show the effect you want." ”

"Oooh!" Wendy came back to her senses, but her expression was still a little embarrassed, and she asked in a panic, "How much does it cost to perform once?" I only have five or six hundred gold coins on me now, and I'm afraid I won't have enough. ”

Wendy had heard some seniors talk about her dream: when she had saved enough money, she would have to go to the opera house and have a show of her own.

"Hahahaha." The old man laughed heartily as if he had heard something funny, "Our Dayas Opera House is not the same as those small opera houses, even if we give us money, we will not accept those works of bad quality." ”

Wendy's eyes lit up, "Then what do you mean......"

"Yes, your story is very good, we won't take your money, only those opera houses that can't survive will take money from the performers, and we will pay you a lot of money, and you deserve it."

"How much does it cost?" Wendy asked cautiously.

"A performance of 2,000 gold coins as a base, and then according to the amount of tickets sold, it is not uncommon for a performance to earn more than 10,000 gold coins."

"Really?!" Wendy excitedly asked, how long would it take to earn 10,000 gold coins like her.

"Of course! This is normal for us. What do you think? Have you thought about it? Why don't you come to our Dayas Opera House to perform, our boss is very optimistic about your performance. ”

"Of course I do!" Wendy is about to jump up with joy, and one of her dreams in life is about to come true!

The old man's face also smiled folds, "Then let's go, start rehearsals as soon as possible, and strive to start performing next week, the actors are already to be determined, and you can pick whoever you like when the time comes." ”

"Okay, right away! I'll tidy things up. Wendy began to pack up what she had put on the floor.

"Let them get it for you." As soon as the old man waved his hand, the strong men behind him were about to move forward.

Wendy's movements became faster, and she took the things she hadn't packed into her arms, shouting, "No, no! I'll do it myself! ”

The guy who eats his own food still has those rewards, and it is more reassuring to hold them in his own hands.
