Chapter 4 Listening to the Rain Pavilion Library
The next morning.
After thinking about it all night, Lan Chen combined the actual situation, and the clever plan was born in his mind.
Silver taels, he needs a lot of silver taels.
Whether it is the redemption of the 1,000 of the deed, or the small few hundred of the daily expenses of the mansion, or the revival of several properties of the Blue Mansion in Xuzhou.
Naturally, the top priority is still a thousand taels.
There are only seven days left, and the only way to do it is to take advantage of it.
Push the door and go out.
Zhu Laosan and Xiao Zhou were already waiting at the door.
"Young master, please have dinner here."
The soup is accompanied by buns and wild vegetables, although it is ugly, it is also warm.
Seeing the two of them standing like this, they didn't sit down.
Lan Chen said slowly, "There are only three of us left in this house, and it's strange that it's lonely, let's sit down and eat together." ”
"If not, this meal, no need."
The two were stunned.
Looking at Lan Chen's expression, he seemed to be serious, so he had to do it.
This meal is naturally apprehensive.
Lan Chen also understood that this matter was in a hurry, so he casually pulled a few mouthfuls to fill his stomach and stood up and said, "I'm going to go out, you guys use it slowly." By the way, Zhu Laosan, is there anyone else in our workshop? ”
"There is a long-term worker there, saying that it is a long-term worker, but in fact, it is also the former second master, the master said that the second master has been in the workshop for half his life, so he will be left to be a consolation."
When Zhu Laosan said this, he was a little cautious, afraid that Lan Chen would open his mouth to drive away the second master.
"Got it, I'm leaving."
"Young Master! I'll help you get a carriage. Are you going to the workshop? ”
"All the carriages at this time? The workshop will go, but not now, I'll go to the flower street first. ”
With that, Lan Chen pushed the door and left.
Left behind two people who looked at each other.
"The young master is going to Flower Street again."
"This ...... Alas, how good is that. I thought that the young master had finally changed, but I never thought about it. Xiao Zhou, you stay here, I'll go and take a look. ”
"That's all there is to it. Alas. ”
What made the two of them lament again and again was that this flower street was full of storytelling, singing, gambling, teasing birds, and having fun.
Flower Street is very lively.
Lan Chen was a little confused.
There are also some wonders gathered here.
Those who are strong have,
Those who fly to the heavens and the earth, too,
Spitfire acrobats, more.
In order to determine how to replicate the Miracle Energy.
Lan Chen also tried, but no matter how he touched it, he couldn't successfully copy the miracle ability.
He had no choice but to leave this stubble behind him first, and then walked into the family building.
"Young master, this? Alas, it's good not to go to the gambling house. But why are you still listening to books? It's also elegant. ”
Zhu Laosan hid to the side and watched Lan Chen walk into the bookstore called 'Listening to the Rain Pavilion'.
It's not easy.
The lobby on the first floor is for listening to books, the loft room on the second floor can be used for books, the private room on the third floor is Accord, and the fourth floor is a cave.
Lan Chen's appearance also attracted attention.
Between the words, there was a lot of contempt for Lan Chen, a gambling man, and there was no lack of all kinds of sarcastic and spicy sarcasm.
"Why is Lan Chen's gentleman here? This is not the Red Mansion, and you can't hug the rouge girl left and right when listening to the drama and listening to the book. ”
"I'm afraid I didn't drink some wine and went to the wrong place. If you think of this as a gambling house, it would be ridiculous and generous. ”
"Everyone, take it, people are little lords. After his father was demoted, he was able to inherit the title. ”
"Envy others and us, with such an opportunity, I will not waste it."
Lan Chen didn't care about all kinds of remarks.
He glanced leisurely at the lobby, and the stage was talking about the past of the founding of the country.
No matter how impassioned the storyteller is, the listeners in the audience yawn again and again.
Then he went up to the second floor on his own.
Flipping through the pages of the second-floor attic.
Carols, boudoirs, worldly affairs, romances, and so on.
The most is the glory of the various dynasties and countries that have opened up their territories - boring.
The rest are legends that praise mysterious gods and bestow human beings with 'miraculous powers'.
The two worlds are originally different, and the legends and stories are not the same, and if you insist on metaphors, they are more works that shackle human nature like feudalism and classical.
In this world, there is really no imagination at all.
This is also the reason why Lan Chen came to the bookstore, he decided to sell his 'memories'.
I saw that he first picked up a notebook, shook his head after turning a few pages, and then threw it at his feet nonchalantly, and in a few moments, there were books at his feet.
"Young Master Lan? What's not to like? ”
"Huh?" Hearing this, Lan Chen knew that he had caught a 'fish'.
But what he didn't expect was that this fish was still a woman.
Gentle and elegant, full of bookishness, jade around the waist, and a faint blush show its elegance, the fly in the ointment is that the eyes, as if they are always squinting their eyelids, no aura, and also temperament.
"You are? How do you know about me? ”
"Xu Zhou asked who doesn't know, Lan Chen and Lan Gongzi. I? If you want, call me Miss Sun. ”
Miss Sun bowed slightly, not disdainful of Lan Chen's 'bad reputation'.
This also made Lan Chen have a good impression of her.
"The little girl is not talented, and the family has asked me to manage this listening to the rain pavilion. I don't know what the rain pavilion is not doing well? Miss Sun said in an aggravated tone, "I made Lan Gongzi so bad at the script, I, a book lover, really feel distressed to look at it." ”
Lan Chen feigned a sigh, his tone full of disappointment with Listening to the Rain Pavilion.
"Recently, I felt bored in the mansion, and I wanted to look at the script, who would have thought that there was no one satisfied. Alas. Maybe I'm asking too much. If you don't have a boring book, keep it for a long time. ”
Miss Sun was slightly stunned, a little annoyed, she had also heard about Lan Chen's various deeds, but because of her upbringing, she couldn't reprimand this lower riba man who had drunk wine and flesh and gambled with left and right.
I saw that she slowly spoke, "Listening to the rain pavilion, there are all the most popular books at present, and it has also collected a complete set of books of Mr. Zheng, the 'king of words', I don't know which one Lan Gongzi wants to find?" ”
The implication could not be more obvious.
Master Zheng is the most popular 'King of Words', and even his books have to be picky, that is, to find fault.
"Uninteresting, uninteresting." Lan Chen shook his head, "His book, I also turned it through before." ”
"This big cadre opens up the territory, and the El Dorado fights in all directions."
"Sing praises to this God, sing praises to the Spirit."
"Between the lines, there are two words written - cannibalism, I have seen everything, but I have never seen 'me'."
"It's so boring."
"Boring!?" Miss Sun's eyes widened, Mr. Zheng is her favorite talker, this Lan Chen came up and said it was boring!?
"Young Master Lan! I think you're a frog at the bottom of a well. I'm afraid I can't even read the script! Please go back, the library is not for you, but the gambling house is better! ”
When the words came out, Miss Sun pursed her mouth, feeling that the words were a bit heavy.
But Lan Chen didn't care, he just shrugged his shoulders and said freely, "I didn't read much, but I wrote some of it myself, but I didn't have a chance to show it." ”
"Okay, then I'll give you this opportunity, go to the lobby, go down and talk about it, I want to hear what you have to say."
"It's nothing." Lan Chen didn't expect it to go so smoothly, and said with a smile on his face, "It's about the 'freedom' that you don't have. ”
