Chapter 51: The Yang Fenglou Era of Guihe's Class
The midsummer in the Guanzhong region can definitely heat people to death.
The air was hot and dry, and when I inhaled it, it was as if I wanted to set my whole chest on fire, and then spit it out, so that my lips ached.
In this kind of weather, let alone people, even a dog is reluctant to go out, just find a shade to lie down, stick out his tongue, hoha haha is a day, only wait until the sun sets, only barely have the idea of eating.
The same is true of the Chengnan Post Station outside Jinyang City, there are not many officials who come and go, and even the inn restaurant and tea shop near the post station have no business.
Zhao San, the young man of Yuelai Inn, was lying on the table, staring at the post road in a daze, and he didn't know whether he was hot and stupid, or complained that the old lady was too ruthless, in such a hot weather, naturally there were not many tourists on the road to stay, and there was less copper money to reward, and the life at home this month was not easy.
On the whole post road, the pavement of the loess rammed flat, under the light of the sun, is a little dazzling, fortunately, there is no one walking at all, otherwise the loess boils, can fall all over the face, that is called an uncomfortable.
I don't know whether it's good to hope that someone will come, or whether it is good to hope that no one will come.
Zhao San stared at the post road while thinking nonsense, after a long time, his eyes were very dry, he closed his eyes, and sighed secretly.
Also, who would go out in such weather?
However, there are no absolutes, and there are always exceptions.
When it was getting late, a convoy came slowly from afar.
Zhao San was suddenly overjoyed, and he had enough eyesight to watch carefully.
The scale of the convoy is not small, there are more than a dozen big cars, and two carriages with carriages, I don't know whether it is the old man or the female dependent, and there are more than 20 strong men accompanying them, some are driving, some are walking, and some people are carrying water bladders to take care of the front and back.
In front of each big car, there is a short small flag, and two big characters are written on the apricot yellow flag.
This is...... It doesn't look like an official's team, and it doesn't look like a chariot and horse gang escorting goods, is it a troupe?
Zhao San ran out of the inn while thinking about it, and stood on the side of the road to greet him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, will you take a break......? Let's take a break, the next post station is still thirty miles away, and if you go again, you will miss the accommodation, besides, if you go over, even if people can stand it, the livestock can't stand it...... Come, come here, we have everything at Yuelai Inn, are you staying or playing sharp? Drink herbal tea and then go on the road...... Rest assured, we still have the best ingredients to ensure that the animals are well served......"
Zhao San greeted while observing these passers-by, and found that most of them slowed down, obviously wanting to rest, but none of them dared to stop directly, and they all set their eyes on a young man.
He is six feet tall, his face is slightly dark, he is not very old, and he may not be as old as Zhao San.
Could it be that this teenager is the main thing in charge of the team?
As soon as Zhao San's doubts arose, the young man spoke.
"That's it for today...... The wall dragon is on duty ......"
Everyone in the convoy cheered, but the other teenager looked depressed.
Everyone drove the cart to the door of the Yuelai Inn, some unloaded the car, some mixed the feed, and some collected the empty water bladder to irrigate, the young man named the wall dragon, took care of the front and back, checked and filled the gaps, but it was in order.
The young man at the head invited the next middle-aged man from the carriage to walk into the Yuelai Inn together, directly chartered a courtyard, calculated the price, and took people into the house.
Zhao San received Sanwen's reward and served him very attentively, and after a period of chaos, he finally settled the convoy.
By the time Zhao San delivered the hot water to the small courtyard, everyone in the team had already finished the matter at hand, sat on the unloaded cage, and listened to the lecture of the young man at the head.
"Let's say it again, listen to it, Danjiao sits in the coat box, and Shengxing sits in the second suitcase...... The flower face sits in the helmet box, and the martial arts sit in the handle box...... The wall dragon is a harlequin, you can sit anywhere...... Remember, this is the rule, and it will be the same backstage in the future......"
Zhao San listened to it freshly, he didn't expect these people to have such big rules, and he wanted to hear more, but he was stopped by a teenager.
"Little brother, I'm looking for you for something, let's go out and talk about ......"
The young man at the head glanced at it, nodded slightly, and then said: "After sitting down, let's officially start, this time I will go to Zhenzhou, and I will perform a new play at the Obon Festival, which is related to whether our Guihe class can be a hit, give me a ......."
This young man is naturally Yang Fenglou.
And those who listened to his words were naturally the members of the Guihe class who left Chang'an City.
After Guiheban left Chang'an City, he stayed all the way to Xiaoxing at night, and traveled three times along the post road every day, that is, ninety miles, and then found an inn next to the post station to stay, and after dinner, he always had to gather together and listen to Yang Fenglou to tell them about Peking Opera.
Yang Fenglou, as the actual head of the Guihe class, carried out drastic reforms to the organizational structure of the Guihe class, completely applying the framework of the Peking Opera class in later generations.
The first is to do your job.
According to the "Seven Elements and Seven Branches", all the people in the Guihe class were redivided, and even the Chai Fei, Song Yan, Loach, Lone Wolf, Lou Jin Dog, Jinwei, Rooster, Female Pheasant, Crow, Fire Monkey, Ginseng Water Ape and others selected from the Right Dragon Wujun were also arranged by him in their respective positions in the Guihe class.
The current Guihe class, although not as neat as the later generations of class members, however, the shelf is also initially set up, the "seven elements" of life, Dan, net, end, ugly, martial, flow, "seven subjects" by the Li department, drama department, helmet department, makeup department, traffic department, drama department, music department, there are also people who perform their duties.
The second is to provide initial training to all people in Peking Opera.
The actors who performed on stage also had a preliminary understanding of the "four skills" singing, reading, doing, and playing, and the "five methods" of hands, eyes, body, law, and steps.
Yang Fenglou directly threw them a set of gongs and drums, and after several run-ins, they could simply cooperate and play.
The logistics staff in the background, under Yang Fenglou's ear and face, finally knew what they should do, and they were no longer chaotic.
In general, Yang Fenglou's transformation of Guiheban in just about ten days can be described as very effective.
"Today, let's talk about this play, "Suo Lin Bag" ......"
When Yang Fenglou was about to arrange the actors according to the plot, Niu Si ran into the small courtyard with a strange face.
"Big brother, go out and have a look, something happened, someone was surrounded in the post station......"
"What's the matter with us, sit down and listen to me......"
"No, big brother, you better go and have a look...... We all know ...... that person."
