Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading - Chapter 93

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: LostSoul

“Chengyu has met a good teacher.” Chen Luo walked into the private room on the top floor under Han Sanniang’s guidance. Chengyu hurriedly stepped forward, made a bow, and then led Ye Dafu beside him saying, “This is the son of our family. My son, this is the Lord of Wan An.”

　　Chen Luo looked at the chubby King Jing’s son in front of him, he really looked blessed, and hurriedly bowed: “I’m Chen Luo, I’ve met the little prince…”

　　Ye Dafu laughed and went up to support Chen Luo, grabbing his wrist: “Lord of Wan An is polite. This little lord has read the Lord of Wan An’s masterpiece and can’t sleep at night. I have been friends with the Lord of Wan An for a long time. I wish I could have seen you sooner. Seeing you today, you are really handsome, and you feel like a spring breeze. Today, let’s not bother about titles and talk only about friendships. How about calling each other brothers?”

　　Chen Luo was taken aback and looked up at Ye Dafu. Is this young master really good at understanding people?

　　”I don’t dare! How can I call you a brother?” Chen Luo waved his hands politely and decided to observe for a while.

　　Ye Dafu didn’t force it, he greeted and then asked Chen Luo to take a seat, and he personally served Chen Luo a whole glass of fine wine: “Come on, let’s have a drink first. There are some things in the book that I still want to ask Brother Chen for some advice on. Han Sanniang, let the girls come in.”

　　”It’s already ready.”

　　Han Sanniang opened the door, and the courtesans from all floors walked in shyly and timidly.

　　Chen Luo’s eyes brightened: “Is the quality of this Linglong Building so high?”

　　On the other side, Ye Dafu looked at the courtesans who came in, while taking a glance at the accountant beside him, and then at the women who came in, he was also overjoyed, every time he walked in, he would cry out in his heart——

　　”Five hundred taels! Five hundred taels! Five hundred taels…”

　　For a while, the guests and the host enjoyed themselves, and in the private room, the bevy of women and men were intertwined with each other.

　　…

　　Upstairs has the excitement of upstairs, and downstairs naturally has the excitement of downstairs.

　　Hearing that Chen Luo came, not only Luo Hongnu, but all the music masters appeared in Linglong Tower for free, and many of them were as famous as Luo Hongnu. The last time Chen Luo opened his mouth and gave “Yearning” to Luo Hongnu. Now Luo Hongnu’s value has skyrocketed by more than ten times. If there is still a famous song in the world today, what if it falls on him? Taking a step back, even if Chen Luo doesn’t give it to themselves, as long as they don’t give it to someone by name, they have plenty of ways to implicate themselves in the new song in a roundabout way.

　　It’s like buying ghost writers on the internet to manipulate public opinion!

　　These are all old marketing styles!

　　Of course, some people also plan to hire someone to pretend to be a blind person to stand up and touch Chen Luo when they are playing. It’s just that with Chen Luo’s current cards, the person who can make him respond in person must at least have some status among Confucian scholars. Such as Qian Erkang, although he has a poor character, he still has some talent. Otherwise, the people of Fuci Society would not focus on him.

　　It’s just that, seeing Qian Erkang’s end now, it’s too difficult to find another student to face Chen Luo.

　　That’s all, let’s try to show the best version of ourselves.

　　Voice, looks, or figure…

　　For a while, everyone in Qu world showed their strengths, like a concert for later generations, and the audience downstairs shouted that their trip had been worthwhile…

　　…

　　There have been three rounds of wine and five flavors of food served in the private room upstairs at this point.

　　Chen Luo drank the “Drunken Immortal Wine” in the cup again. To be honest, everything in this world is amazing, but this wine is really the only one!

　　Ha ha!

　　It is said to be the most powerful “Drunken Immortal Brew”, and when it is drunk in the mouth, it is so strong that the “Death-killing Da Wusu” is exhausted.

　　Have you ever seen someone drinking beer from a liquor cup?

　　As soon as Chen Luo raised his hand, he took a cup, and his face was neither red nor out of breath. Ye Dafu had never seen such a drink of “Drunken Immortal Brew”. Thinking that he still had questions to ask Chen Luo, he took one cup after another. Within a moment, his face was already red, as his drunkenness had already caught up to him.

　　”Old Chen, let me tell you, hiccup—” Ye Dafu hooked Chen Luo’s shoulders, “You are the fortune star… Do you know that because you changed the content of the morning wake up and added the morning street scene? traffic. The profit of the 1,800 breakfast stalls I invested in increased by 30%! “

　　Chen Luo was startled: Damn, what’s going on, the dignified King Xiaojing bought a stake in the breakfast stall?

　　Seeing Chen Luo’s gaze, Ye Dafu chuckled and said, “It doesn’t cost money! It’s just to pass on some secret pastry recipes from the palace, and they just find some substitute ingredients to imitate it. You don’t need to tell me, the common people will just buy it.”

　　”Food is the most important thing for the people. The cost of lunch and night banquets is too high. It is difficult to say that you have to invest in a restaurant. The risk is hard to say. But breakfast is different. Although one stall makes little profit, adding thousands of them together is a big deal. That’s daily cash.”

　　”In addition, my King’s Mansion does not accept shares in vain. We will also help them choose a site, send chefs to provide technical guidance and provide official protection. It is a win-win situation!”

　　The light in Chen Luo’s eyes became hotter and hotter: Fuck, this King Xiao Jing is a business genius!

　　”But is it okay for you to pass on the secret recipe of the palace?”

　　”What’s the problem? If you have any questions, ask my three thousand loyal soldiers first!”

　　Chen Luo: []~(￣�￣)~* Cheers. Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”

　　”I think, my lord, you can open a flagship store and then open other franchises. Start by charging the franchise fee first, and then collect profit shares. If the other party can’t afford the franchise fee, you can advance the money and let the other party use the next profit as collateral .”

　　”Wonderful! If Brother Chen is willing, I would like to create a supplement under Brother Chen’s “Daxuan People’s Daily”, called “Daxuan Restaurant List”, to rank the restaurants in Beijing and even the world. What do you think? “

　　”The rankings have to be changed every month. This list can also be divided into multiple lists such as taste rankings, environment rankings, and service rankings! Let’s create a rating system to fully control the judging power.” Chen Luo added.

　　Listening to the back and forth conversation between Chen Luo and Ye Dafu, although the people around them couldn’t understand them, they all felt that it was very powerful, only the girls accompanying the wine and Han Sanniang who knew it well were dripping with cold sweat.

　　These two devils!

　　I must serve you well today!

　　At this time, Chen Luo and Ye Dafu looked at each other, and they both saw the look of sympathy in each other’s eyes.

　　”Why not let’s…”

　　”Why not let’s…”

　　The two said in unison: “Let’s become sworn brothers!”

　　”Brother Chen!”

　　”Brother Dafu!”

　　…

　　The atmosphere was warmed with wine.

　　Finally, everyone on stage finished performing their music, and it was finaly Luo Hongnu’s turn to appear on stage.

　　The curtain on the stage was lifted, and Luo Hongnu walked out slowly. Even though everyone knew that Luo Hongnu was beautiful, today’s Luo Hongnu is a little different.

　　In the past, Luo Hongnu was once just an ordinary figure in the sky. Although she lived and breathed music, she was always as indifferent as a chrysanthemum and kept a suitable distance from everyone. Seeing neither joy nor sorrow, just looking at everyone indifferently. If one had to describe it in one word, it would be cold.

　　But today’s Luo Hongnu actually had a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and a faint blush on her face, as if she had stepped off a painting, adding a bit of anger.

　　Sharp-eyed people saw Luo Hongnu’s head tied with lovesickness buckles, and saw her looking at the private room upstairs from time to time, and they knew it.

　　”Beauties are like flowers separated from the clouds…” Someone sighed, “Sure enough, only the people on the clouds can pick them.”

　　When Luo Hongnu sat down and plucked the strings with her jade fingers, a sound like flowing water came out, and the audience went silent.

　　”I will never miss you in my life…”

　　”It’s “Yearning”. Everyone, Luo Dajia will finally perform it…” Someone exclaimed.

　　”Don’t be noisy, this is the first time “Yearning” has been composed, don’t disturb Luo Dajia!”

　　”My God, the Lord of Wan An is upstairs…”

　　…

　　Chen Luo was taken aback for a moment when he heard the singing. He stood up and walked to the window, where saw a touch of red on the stage at a glance.

　　 Luo Hongnu felt something in her heart, raised her head, and met Chen Luo’s gaze.

　　This gaze—

　　Jiangnan today, drizzle and breeze.

　　Chen Luo raised his glass as a show of respect from a distance, Luo Hongnu smiled indifferently and continued to sing: “Only you when you’ve experienced yearning, will you be hurt by yearning…”

　　…

　　After the song was sung, the sound lingered, and everyone was immersed in lovesickness because of the song.

　　Ye Dafu was drunk at this time, and approached him anxiously: “Brother Chen, is Miss Luo your best friend? How about I send some loyal men to bring her here?”

　　Chen Luo was about to speak when suddenly there was a sinister laughter from downstairs.

　　”Hahaha, good song, good song!” A Confucian scholar with a goatee in the hall stood up and saluted Luo Hongnu, “Master Luo really has a heavenly voice, Lord of Wan An is also worthy of a master. This song is really the best Qu in the world!”

　　”I am called Panfeng. I heard that King Xiaojing invited the Lord of Wan An to a banquet today, and I came here specially. I had thoughts that had really condensed in my heart, and they couldn’t be understood so it made me hesitate, but just now I heard Master Luo’s “Lovesickness”, and I suddenly had all my doubts cleared. This one dares to ask the Lord of Wan An for a song!”

　　”This song is recorded in the book “Laughing in the Wind” by Lord of Wan An. It’s the song that Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng played together in “Laughing in the Wind”. I have read it a hundred times, but I still can’t imagine what kind of song can be so free and expansive. Please enlighten us, Lord of Wan An!”

　　When everyone heard that Pan Feng wanted to tread on someone else’s toes, they were about to mobilize and attack, but when they heard Pan Feng’s request, they all stopped.

　　It is true that the description of this poem in the book is too in line with the chic and unrestrained style of the Confucian people.

　　On the barren slopes on a moonlit night, good and evil confidantes, playing the qin and flute ensemble, laughing proudly in the world.

　　All their excitement was directly filled up!

　　Everyone looked at the private room upstairs in unison.

　　Ye Dafu frowned slightly, and said, “Brother Chen, I’m afraid this matter has something to do with me. I…”

　　Chen Luo waved his hand slightly and sighed.

　　”Sigh, here comes another wave…” Read the most updated version of this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at Novel Multiverse – “NovelMultiverse dot com”
