When Zhu Mai heard this, she smiled and said nothing, so she followed him and left.

Seeing this, Zhang Mingwei couldn't help but feel funny: It turns out that he was waiting for his words just now?

……………………

On the corner of Yangzhou West Street, it is a quieter place in the city. In other words, it is not prosperous and the rent will be much lower.

There is a shop with eye-catching red lanterns hanging. There is a horizontal plaque at the door, with a piece of red cloth hanging on it, and a thin rope is being pulled down. It should be pulled down by just one pull, revealing the name of the shop.

Early in the morning, at the entrance of the store, two friends happily carried a sign and stood it at the entrance of the store. It said, "The new store has opened, Yangzhou everyone has opened a song to open"!

It should be because it was still early, and there were no one on the street, so the two guys started chatting.

"It's such a rare opportunity. You can hear so many songs from the boss. If we change our daily life, how can we have this blessing!"

"That's right, especially the big boss, they are all in Yingtian Mansion. When they came to Yangzhou this time, they happened to encounter this incident. When her sisters told her that she became the big boss. When she listened to her singing songs, only the high-ranking officials in Yingtian Mansion had this qualification!"

"Yes, it is said that the best singer in our Ming Dynasty is the Great Organ! When you sing it, it is like the sound of nature!"

“…”

They were chatting when they suddenly saw several sedan chairs coming here. After seeing this, the two of them immediately stopped chatting, and smiled and bowed, "I've seen the boss!"

A nice voice came from the sedan chair in front and said, "Are everything ready?"

"Today is a big deal. If you dare to delay, you must be ready!" One of the guys answered quickly.

Hearing this, a maid who was accompanying him had already lifted the curtain and the person inside stepped out. The same was true for the two sedan chairs behind.

The shopkeeper in the store heard the movement and hurriedly came out. As soon as he saw it, he hurriedly greeted: "The second boss, the third boss, and the fourth boss, it's so early, congratulations!"

When the second boss heard this, he smiled and immediately signaled to the maid, and gave him a red envelope.

The two owners behind him were the same. As a result, everyone was very happy and the atmosphere became much more festive.

"Shopkeeper, my sisters and I will prepare first." The second boss said to the shopkeeper with a smile, "If any guests arrive, we will serve you in tea first."

The shopkeeper naturally agreed repeatedly, reassuring these owners.

But he didn't know that after these three bosses went to the backstage, they would no longer have those smiles.

The three of them faced each other, their faces were a little heavy.

"Are you being troubled when you go out today?"

"Why aren't there? Moms are naturally very unhappy!"

"Yes, I said sarcastically, I won't keep this money for redeem in the future. I will use it for this matter. Don't blame her if it is wasted. Haha, why should I blame her for what I decided by myself?"

“…”

After talking for a while, the second head of the army suddenly asked: "You think, will the National Union come? If the National Union really knows how to come, then our Ming Pao will at least not lose money, and there will be a lot of things missing!"

"There is no news, I guess I won't come!"

"Yes, a dignified Duke would not like a small branch? Obviously, we were wishful thinking!"

Hearing that there was no news from both of them, the second head of the army forced a smile and said, "Forget it, have we been mentally prepared? Anyway, we also like those songs. Since we have taken this step, let's do it well!"

"If this scene of opening the door does not start, there will be many things that will make things difficult for us afterwards. I don't know what will happen in the end?"

“…”

While they were wearing makeup under the maid's service, they were talking to each other, and the atmosphere was a little heavy.

Suddenly, footsteps came from outside. When they turned around, they couldn't help but stand up and politely said, "Sister is here!"

The person who came here was the big boss of the Yangzhou Branch of Ming Pao. In fact, it looked just the age of Erba Youhua, and was not very old.

However, unlike the three people who had already arrived first, when she came in, she was brisk in her steps and couldn't hide the joy on her face.

As soon as she saw her expression, the second boss asked: "Sister, why are you so happy?"

When the big boss heard this, he smiled and took their hands and said, "Xingguo is coming, are you happy?"

"What?"

"The Duke is coming?"

"Is this true?"

After being surprised, the three women who arrived first actually jumped up in each other, their excitement and joy were beyond words.

After being excited for a while, the second boss came to his senses first and asked curiously: "Sister, why haven't we received the news that the National Guild has come?"

The other two nodded as well after hearing this.

"It was only after dark yesterday that Zhang Zhuanyun sent someone to inform you." After hearing this, the boss explained, "It was getting late, so I didn't have time to notify all the sisters."

When the few people heard this, they were very happy. After a while of joy, they quickly prepared.

As time passed, there was finally movement at the door, and the invited guests arrived one after another.

Needless to say, those who can be invited by several top brands are all literati and poets, and at least they are a bit famous.

After entering the store, there was a temporary table on the backyard. In front of the table, there were tables, chairs, coffee tables, etc., and some fruit and snacks.

The guy enthusiastically greeted these guests and entered the backyard. Whoever invited them would come and greet them, and asked them to sit and eat some snacks first.

Among them, some people think about going to the backstage to see it. When a few top players are together, the opportunity is rare, not to mention the celebrities from Yingtian Mansion.

However, the maids were not vegetarians and responded in a few words. These literati and poets were somewhat more particular about their appearance, but they did not force them.

Time passed slowly again, and suddenly, a noise came from the door of the store, so loud that even the few people preparing in the background heard it.

So the shopkeeper was called over to ask about the situation.

"Several bosses, there were some street barons without invitations coming to the door, and they insisted on breaking in and listening to the song. If they weren't allowed to enter, they would make a fuss at the door. If it weren't for the villain's visit to the yamen, they would have broken in."

When the second boss heard this, he immediately ordered: "Go and tell them, the Duke of the State will come today. Who will try to make trouble?"

In the words, I was very tough.

The shopkeeper was a little stunned when he heard this. After coming to his senses, he opened his mouth to say something. However, after thinking about it, he still agreed and turned around and left.

"What does it mean?" The second boss asked in confusion when he saw it, "Don't the shopkeeper believe it?"

After hearing this, the big boss smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether he believes it or not. Anyway, he will do it. When the Duke of the State really comes, he will naturally believe it!"

So, they prepared again.

There is indeed a lot less noise at the entrance of the store, but it still looks a bit noisy.

After a while, the shopkeeper suddenly hurried to the backstage and reported: "Dear bosses, there is someone coming to the door, and there is no invitation letter. He claims to be Mr. Yushan and wants the boss to come out to welcome him."

When he heard this, several owners were stunned for a moment, and then they were all overjoyed. They quickly packed up their makeup and hurriedly went out to welcome them.

When the literati and poets in the yard heard this, they were all excited and followed them one after another.

"It turned out that Mr. Yushan is here, I'm going there together!"

"Oh, it's really worth seeing Mr. Yushan in person."

“…”

An old man stood at the door of the store, standing with his hands behind his back, looking elegant. Beside him, there was a beautiful lady with him, and the two were talking.

As soon as several bosses came out, they were all happy. The leader of the boss immediately gave him blessing and said, "I have met Mr. Yushan and Sister Liu!"

This big boss is Li Xiangjun, one of the eight beauties of Qinhuai. She is famous for her round and beautiful singing voice, but most people cannot hear her singing.

If she had been in the original history, she would have had intersections with Hou Fangyu in the fifteenth year of Chongzhen.

However, because Zhang Mingwei's butterfly wings flapped, Hou Fangyu became a family member of a thief and fled from Jiangnan very early, and was killed by the natives in Shu in the 16th year of Chongzhen. Therefore, Li Xiangjun and Hou Fangyu naturally had no chance of intersection.

Mr. Yushan is the famous Shui Tailong, also known as Qian Qianyi, who had itchy scalp. Of course, he is also a famous person in this plane. He can be said to be the leader of the Jiangnan Shilin, and is very famous.

If it weren't for the flapping of Zhang Mingwei's butterfly wings, Zheng Zhilong would have listened to his reputation and let Zheng Fusong be renamed under his disciples. Of course, this would be the case now!

The one Li Xiangjun who was with him called Sister Liu was naturally Liu Rushi, who was six years older than Li Xiangjun. Her fame was naturally great, and she was the predecessor of Li Xiangjun and others.

When the literati and poets behind him saw it, they all came forward to greet him and praised Qian Qianyi.

Qian Qianyi was used to this. He just smiled faintly and said, "I heard that there is a party here, so I asked me to come and have a look together. This is the new store. I don't know who it is, but how can I invite a few people to sing on the stage together?"

When Li Xiangjun heard this, he quickly explained: "It was my family who raised money to do it, and it was also a matter of books, which is the Yangzhou Branch of Ming Pao."

When he heard this, Qian Qianyi's old face suddenly sank.

With his connections, of course, he knew that Ming Pao was actually the property of Duke Xingguo.

He was actually looking forward to Duke Xingguo at the beginning.

After all, if you have the recommendation of Duke Xingguo, you will be able to soar to the sky.

Originally, he thought that with his reputation, Duke Xingguo must have heard of him. If he turned around and recommended him to the emperor, he would be able to stand tall in the temple again.

As a result, he waited left and did not move; waited right and did not move. After waiting for a long time, he knew that Duke Xingguo must have thought that he was not worthy of being recommended, otherwise he would have recommended him long ago.

Even the local magistrate of Changsha, which is equivalent to his juniors, was recommended to the temple and entered the cabinet, but he is still a cannibal!

Of course Qian Qianyi was unhappy about this.

Later, he learned that the prince went south was suggested by Duke Xingguo. In addition, Duke Xingguo's actions towards local gentry made him even more disgusted.

That's it, it would be strange if Duke Xingguo had a good impression in Qian Qianyi's mind!
