Datang Library

This is the effect Bai Fan wanted. He deliberately selected a group of disciples from the beggar gang with excellent eloquence, fat and thin. Among the 100 people, he selected the most outstanding two as the first disciples of cross talk. On this day, the emperor and all the officials will talk about cross talk, while others will practice it slowly and then go around and talk about it.

No need to think about it at all, who wouldn't like Mr. Guo's jokes from the previous life?

What Bai Fan didn't expect was that the two people on the stage had almost finished speaking, and they had to wait until the common people were almost relieved from laughing before continuing, otherwise the laughter below would be so overwhelming that others would not be able to hear anything.

"Boy, what kind of program is this? Just two people can be so interesting?" Li Yuan asked Bai Fan.

"Grandpa, this is called cross talk. It's an art. It wins the audience's laughter through the performance and voice of two people. There are many things in it. This paragraph is only a part, and there are other things that will be performed slowly in the future."

A cross talk that was originally only 15 minutes, but because of the audience, it lasted for half an hour. The audience who did not eat or drink has changed from a neat seat to a mess. There was something to eat and drink, even if there was, it was all sprayed out and the cups and plates were messed up.

"Wonderful! Do it again! Big reward!" The old man Li Yuan shouted.

Alright, the distinguished guests on the fourth floor took the lead in shouting like this, and the audience below also shouted, do it again, do it again!

Bai Fan tried hard to persuade Li Yuan here, he can't do everything again, how can he do it again for half an hour?

Du He hurriedly went on stage to explain to the audience that there are too many good evening shows, and if they are all played again, then the show will not be finished tonight, and it is estimated that the show will be played until dawn.

All right!The people in Chang'an are still very reasonable, although everyone doesn't care about time, how fun is it to watch such a beautiful thing all night?But this also has to give the organizer Bai everyone a face.

Li Er laughed beside him and said: "Boy, you should be glad that Zhijie is not here this time, otherwise he would start making jokes with you, and it would be impossible for him to let you go tonight."

When Bai Fan heard it, he thought of the style of old devil Cheng, and instantly felt a chill in his neck. Li Er was right!Fortunately, Cheng Yaojin is not here.

After the cross talk, there was a song of qin and flute. This was the song that Bai Fan became famous in Luoyang at that time. It had already been passed on to Du He, and now it is used as a performance repertoire for the duo to perform on the stage. The audience used music to adjust the atmosphere, and immediately felt refreshed. It is not a good thing to laugh all the time, and it is easy to laugh out loud.

"That's right, I want these two people, and I want to send them to the palace. I want to listen to this masterpiece every day. Oh, and I also want the two who talked about cross talk before." Li Yuan instructed.

"No, I'm just these two people. It's not easy to cultivate them with painstaking efforts, so I can't enter the palace."

"Boy, I'm giving you face by not letting you enter the palace to perform for me in person, and asking you to be so stingy?" Li Yuan said dissatisfied.

"You are breaking the rules of the industry. These are talented people. Old man, you are the emperor and belong to the privileged class. You have all these people in one person's possession. What do the common people want to see? What is the purpose of our doing this? You always have a bad head."

Bai Fan brought out the righteousness of the country to talk about the matter, and Li Er, who originally wanted to speak out to help him and beg for it, was not ready to speak immediately after hearing this.

Li Yuan pondered, and Bai Fan continued to persuade: "Don't worry about it, old man. Wouldn't it be boring to send you to the palace to enjoy alone? It's better to have fun alone than to have fun with everyone. You have nothing to do in the palace all day long. Why don't you stay here for entertainment in the future?" In the city, wouldn't it be nice to have a drink and play some cards, and watch a show when you get bored?

Presumably you can see the happy smiles of the people every day, and you, the founding emperor, must be gratified. "

Well, this flattery is good, this is Li Er's thoughts at this time, a word that touched Li Yuan's heart, not only found him a fun way to retire, but also said it in an upright manner.

"Okay, I live here to eat and drink your food without giving me any money!" Old Li Yuan also had a childish temper.

"That's no good, you are here to set an example. Not only can you not refuse to give money, but you must also spend it generously, so that you can match your status as the supreme emperor who is rich in the world, and at the same time tell others that you have paid for everything as the supreme emperor. Who else would dare to come here to eat, drink and play without giving money?

Of course, don't be afraid of running out of money. Your Majesty and my father-in-law who are in charge of finances are filial sons, and my grandson-in-law is also rich in the world. I will pay for your consumption. "

When it comes to making money, Bai Fan is reasonable in every way, even fooling Li Yuan into taking over the place. As expected, Li Yuan stroked his beard and laughed, "That's right, I must be the one with the most money! Your idea is good." !"

After hearing this, Li Er secretly winked at Bai Fan, you are cunning, you paid all the money!

Bai Fan shook his head, and the two of them started counting the price silently like this, and finally negotiated the result, [-]% to [-]%, Li Er paid [-]%, and Bai Fan took [-]%, after all, the money was spent on Bai Fan's entertainment city.

After the harmony of the qin and the flute, there was another sketch, which used the trilogy of the famous masterpiece of Uncle Benshan in his previous life. Of course, this night is only the first part. This kind of comedy and humor, in this extremely lack of entertainment in the Tang Dynasty , it is definitely eating all men and women, old and young, no one can stop it.

Look at the noble ladies over there who were still reserved, how many of them have maintained an elegant manner since the cross talk?Even Empress Changsun smiled to one side, and Hong Funu, who was sitting domineeringly, finished laughing.

"Ping'er, where did Jane learn these things? What a fantastic idea, these things don't seem to have anything to do with literary talent!" Empress Changsun asked Li Wanping.

"My niece doesn't know about this. Although my husband is usually serious in front of the students, he is very easy-going and humorous in private. He is very good at making people happy. Maybe it's all his whimsy!" Li Wanping explained. road.

"Yoyo, could it be because of this that you were abducted by our family Fan'er back then!" Hong Funu joked.

Everyone laughed. It was rare for a large audience to hear Princess Ping'an talk about the private life of the love saint Bai Fan. This may soon be another scandal.

Li Er watched the happy scene of more than 1 people. As an emperor, he intuitively felt that it was a prosperous age. Isn't this the prosperous and prosperous age in his vision?

Turning his head and whispering to Bai Fan, he asked, "Boy, you have bothered to make such a big event. Looking at it like this, it must have cost a lot this time, and to maintain such a grand occasion, you will have to keep investing money in the future. Tell me, you will lose money." How much? I can consider the treasury to pay you to replenish it."

Chapter 391 Naive Li Er's Money-Making Machine

Bai Fan smiled and said, "Your Majesty, when have you ever seen me in a business that loses money? Besides, the treasury pays for it? How long has the Tang Dynasty been stable, and money is being spent everywhere, how much can the treasury take out?"

Being ridiculed face to face for the country's poverty, Li Er's face was not good-looking, and he snorted coldly: "It's no problem to give you 20 to [-] a year. I'm kind enough to help. If you don't like it, I didn't say anything."

"Hahahaha, I'm just joking with His Majesty. Let's be honest, I didn't spend any money on the investment in this entertainment city, and I will continue to make money here in the future."

Seeing Bai Fan's confident smile and his words that didn't seem to be fake, Li Er and Li Jiancheng became interested, and they came together to hear what he had to say.

Seeing this, Bai Fan looked around, lowered his head and explained in a low voice.

"There are many merchants and shops in this entertainment city. It is impossible for me to finish the business alone. I only invest in technology. They pay for the shops I have built. Some of them buy my technology. They come here to open a shop. The construction cost of a store may It's less than ten times, because I use the beggars' gang disciples for my labor, and it's enough to take care of food and lodging, and the wages are settled with the beggars' gang.

But I sold it to those merchants. This store, hehe, is not sold to death, but rented out, and the rent is thousands of dollars a year! "

what?

"Boy, are you crazy? This is money grabbing! Who would foolishly spend a thousand yuan to buy a small house that costs less than ten yuan?" Li Er asked in puzzlement.

On the other hand, Li Jiancheng didn't speak, but began to calculate in his heart. After all, he has been engaged in politics and economy for many years, and he can still detect one or two tricks in it.

"Why is there no one? There is still a price but no market!

Not to mention anything else, just like that knockoff ready-to-wear shop, the boss of this shop has a vision, since we started launching women’s ready-to-wear clothing, he has been following my clothing style, because our selling price is too high to occupy the aristocratic market, He imitated our style and used inferior materials to occupy the low-end market, and now he is the leader of low-end ready-to-wear stores.

You can see that the name of his family has been changed, and it is directly called Shanzhai. This word is learned from us, which means imitation. Of course, they will say it is a high imitation when they promote it.That is to say, there is no patent right in this era, otherwise I will sue him and make him bankrupt!

When I proposed one thousand guan, the boss took out [-] guan in one breath, bought three rooms, and directly opened up a large storefront. "

"Is this person stupid?" Li Er asked.

"He's not stupid, he's smart, because he has seen the entertainment city market. It can be said that this place will replace Chang'an East City in the future. There is a constant flow of people day and night. Everyone comes here to spend money. There are no fewer customers coming in and out every day. One hundred thousand, with so many people, do you know how much his store earns a day?" Bai Fan asked Li Er meaningfully.

Li Er felt very uncomfortable looking at this look. Why did he seem to be a noob when it comes to settling accounts, so he was obviously stared at.

"Say it straight!"

"His net profit is at least [-] per day! After a year, he makes a net profit of [-]. After deducting the [-] store money, there is still [-] in profit.

This is still the present. When Chang'an is more prosperous in the future, he can earn more. When the common people have money and there are more people in Chang'an, he can earn at least [-] Guan a day in net profit. "

"What? A small garment merchant can make hundreds of guan a day's profit? This is the salary of one of my fifth-rank officials for one year!"

Officials of the Tang Dynasty had about 250 guan a year for third-rank officials, and about 120 guan for fifth-rank officials. Now Bai Fan told Li Er that a businessman can be worth as much as an official in a day. How can he bear it?
