Chapter 130: Hype

The three of them returned to Suiya Mountain House with great enthusiasm. It was already evening and most of the tea lovers had left.

Zhou Heng shouted in the mountain room: "All the ladies come to the hall and choose the courtesan."

Chen Ao gave Zhou Heng a shameless look, asked Wu Saner to go and hold the lamp, let the hall be brighter, and then ordered the servants to call people, and all the maids here would be called.

Soon, the maids who had been working hard for a day came down from the second floor. This time, they saw them, they were much more dignified than before, and they had a faint temperament of a ladylike family in their behavior.

It seems that Chen Ao's saliva was not in vain, and Wu Saner did put her heart into it. From a prostitute to a lady, the changes can be imagined.

I guess this is also related to the nature of the work. In the past, they lived by selling laughter and naturally became more charming and charming. Now they just serve tea and water. Although some of the tea lovers they meet are self-proclaimed, most of them are still scholars. Scholars are very reserved, and often have lust but not courage. Once this temperament is contaminated, they also have a bit of scholarly spirit.

Chen Ao thought proudly, "Good, good, I can save so many fallen girls. I have accumulated good virtues. When I get rid of my braids, I will probably go to see God. By the way, maybe I will go to see the Buddha of Tathagata!"

In fact, if these maids were not forced, who would be willing to be trampled on by others? Now they are not tired from working in this tea shop, and they are not busy with work and have a lot of money. Although they are not stuck in the ground when they are busy, they still have enough leisure. They have gradually gotten used to this kind of life.

"Hello Mr. Chen..." This time the maids stopped teasing Chen Ao anymore. Eleven people stood in a row and all at once to Chen Ao Fu. The sweet and silly voice sounded out in unison, which was very pleasant.

Chen Ao smiled and thought, there were too few good men as gentle and reserved as me in the Song Dynasty. There were so many beauties around him, and my buddy could still sit still without any worries. When Liu Xiahui saw me, I was afraid she would be ashamed.

Chen Ao deliberately raised his face and acted like a boss. He nodded and said, "I'm going to call you here today. There is an important thing to announce. This matter is related to the survival of our Sui Yashan House."

The leader must speak in a high-profile manner, but no one will listen.

When the maids heard the word "survival and death", their beauty suddenly lost its color. They were used to this peaceful life and could never return to what they had been there. If the Sui Yashan House died, they had to find a way out. Thinking of this, tears flashed in many people's eyes.

Zhou Heng said mercifully: "Sisters, don't cry first, my cousin is joking with you. Cousin, although you are older than me, I can't stand it anymore. What are you doing to scare them? You can be cruel to such a beauties? Don't be angry, I love you."

Shameless! Chen Ao and Wu Saner looked at him together, showing contemptuous eyes.

Chen Ao ignored Zhou Heng and continued: "Now, Suiyashanfang lacks capital turnover. For the survival of Suiyashanfang, we are preparing to participate in the Courtesan Competition."

The Courtesan Competition is very familiar to these maids. When everyone heard this, several volunteered: "If the young master feels embarrassed and doesn't dislike us, we are willing to participate in the Courtesan Competition."

Chen Ao was happy, and it was easy to deal with. As long as they were willing, Chen Ao would solve the rest of the matter. He went back and forth in front of the maids, and finally his eyes fell on a petite maid, walked to the maid, and asked, "What's your name?"

This petite maid is considered to be of the upper class and not very eye-catching among the crowd. She is the only one who is very good at figure. From a distance, she has an urge to care for her.

The little maid looked up at Chen Ao, and a hint of red glow rose from her face, and said, "I'm called Hanmei."

Chen Ao couldn't help but frown and said, "The name of winter plum is not good. You want to get a good stage name. From now on, you are the dream lover of thousands of men. What should you do if you make the young prostitute in Bianjing look overshadowed?" Chen Ao pondered for a long time, and suddenly his eyebrows lit up and said, "If you have it, just call it Pin'er. The frown and smile make people think of this name, you can imagine the beauty in the dream smile, with thousands of charms, haha... that's what it decided."

Chen Ao was once full of confidence. The little Pin'er in front of him was naturally better than Brother Chun. Brother Chun could become a god, so why couldn't Pin'er?

He held Pin'er's hand suddenly, smiled and said, "Follow me, I have something to say to you."

As he said that, he instructed Zhou Heng, who was stunned: "You go buy some fabrics. We must prepare to cut some clothes for use in the courtesan competition." After that, he looked at Wu Saner and said: "Wu Saner, you wait here. I have something to tell you to do later."

After Chen Ao's words were explained, he had the style of a general. After explaining the matter, he took Pin'er's hand and went all the way to the second floor; leaving behind his back, which made Zhou Heng stunned!

My cousin was so unrighteous that he pulled the beauty upstairs, but asked him to buy fabrics. What's going on?

Zhou Heng felt unbalanced, but he could only feel miserable. He shook his head in annoyance and reached out to Wu Saner, "Saner, come and make some money, I'll go buy fabric."

When the maids heard this, they said, oh, it turned out that Young Master Zhou was empty and laughed one by one.

When Chen Ao pulled Pin'er down, an hour had passed. Pin'er blushed and slowly walked downstairs. No one knew what Chen Ao said or did to her, but her walking figure seemed to be a little more weird.

Chen Ao had a stern face and looked like a gentleman. He gave a few more instructions in Pin'er's ear, patted her shoulders, and whispered: "Remember, let's walk like this in the future. As for the others, you don't have to pay attention to it. From today on, you should not come out to do your job and stay in the room. No one except the people in the Suiyashan room should meet."

Pin'er blushed and said, "I understand, young master, Pin'er must listen to the young master."

Chen Ao nodded with satisfaction. The maids in Suiyashan Room are of good quality and very obedient. Chen Ao is also relaxed when he teaches. With this, his confidence is even more strong. He teaches the maids to rest first when they go back, pull Wu Saner aside, and said, "San'er, how many days will there be before the courtesan conference?"

Wu Saner said: "It's almost there, there are four days left."

It seems that time is a bit tight. Chen Ao pinched his fingers and calculated that the courtesan conference happened to be on the weekend, which made it convenient for him.

But then again, the holiday of the prisoners is the holiday for the supervisors and officials. Since the courtesan conference is held, it is naturally inseparable from the support of the nobles. If the schedule is placed at other times, the organizers will definitely suffer a lot. This kind of thing will naturally be more lively. The officials are on duty. Can you continue to hold the courtesan conference?

Chen Ao said, "It's great, so I'll just take a leave of absence for two more days. Anyway, Lord Tang spoke and said when will he recover from his illness before going to school? Isn't the illness completely cured yet?"

Chen Ao is suffering from poor illness. Once a person is poor, all diseases will come, so he has to cure the disease and then go to school.

Chen Ao looked at Wu Saner with a smile, with a strange look flashing in his eyes, and he whispered: "From tomorrow, business matters will be temporarily left to Wu Liuer. Haven't he been helping in the backyard and responsible for the tea room and kitchen? Let him come to the front hall tomorrow; what we are doing now is hype."

"Hype?" Wu Saner didn't understand.

Chen Ao smiled and said, "It means to spread Pin'er's name so that she can be known to everyone. From high-ranking officials and nobles to peddlers and barbarians in Bianjing City, they must have an impression of her; and they must give people the impression that Pin'er is a peerless beauty."

Wu Saner knew that Brother Shen had many ideas. Although she seemed to understand it, she nodded repeatedly: "What does Brother Shen say, I will do whatever I want."

Chen Ao smiled and said, "It's very easy. When will the latest edition of the Sui Yu Book be released?"

Wu Saner said: "It's just these few days, but when the carvings are made into books and sold, I'm afraid I'll have to wait about ten more days."

Chen Ao curled his smile and shook his head with a stern face, "It's too late. I'll add a few poems now. You can ask them to print dozens of books overnight as soon as possible, and they will be sold tomorrow."

"I'll sell it tomorrow? Only a few dozen copies?" Wu Saner looked at Chen Ao in confusion, thinking that she had heard it wrong.

What's the use of dozens of volumes? It's sold out in just half a stick of incense.

Chen Ao said meaningfully: "These dozens of volumes are just gimmicks, just to say they are treasured versions. Add all the selected poetry collections from the past few months. I think of a way to write a few more poems today and sell them tomorrow morning, so don't delay it."

Wu Saner nodded, stopped asking more questions, and said, "I'll grind it for Brother Shen!"

The pen, ink, paper and inkstone were sent over, and the rice paper was spread out, Chen Ao dipped in ink, picked up the pen and started writing.

While grinding, Wu Saner looked at the side with breath. He recognized the words on it. When he saw it, he immediately understood Chen Ao's thoughts.

Chen Ao's first poem is called "An Interpretation of the Pin'er". The following verse is: Two bends seem to be frowning but not frowning, one pair of eyes that seem to be happy but not happy, and the face brings sorrow to the two cheeks, and the delicate aches all over the body. Tears are dotted, and the gasps are slightly soft. Quietness is like a delicate flower shining on the water, and actions are like a weak willow to support the wind. The heart is more than a dry one, and the disease is better than three points. Quietness is like a flower shining on the water, and actions are like a wind to support the willow. The corners of the eyebrows are delicate, and the voice and smile show gentleness.

Wu Saner printed poetry books these days and knew a little about the rhythm of poetry. He couldn't help but say, "Young Master, this lyrics are written very well, but they are not like poems or lyric cards. Isn't it a bit inappropriate?"

Chen Ao laughed and said, "It is enough to cause controversy. If there is controversy, it is called hype. When everyone is competing for this poem, they can't help but remember Pin'er's voice and appearance. This is called subtle influence."

After hearing this, Wu Saner seemed to understand it, but he was confident in Chen Ao, so he laughed with Chen Ao.

Afterwards, Chen Ao wrote several poems, all of which were excerpted from the Ming and Qing dynasties based on memories of his previous life. He still wrote about Pin'er, such as smiling, and beauty who came slowly.

After writing the poem, Chen Ao stretched out his waist and said, "This is just the first step in hype. It's just to make everyone have a preliminary impression of Pin'er. When the impression is there, we will give you a strong medicine."

"Sharp medicine!" Wu San'er's eyelids twitched. He knew Brother Shen's methods. He said it was a fierce medicine, and it must be extremely powerful. But he didn't know what medicine was sold in Brother Shen's gourd.

However, at this time, Wu Saner remembered something and said, "Brother Shen, we only sell dozens of poem books. How can it cause controversy among many people? Are you rushing to print more books?"

Chen Ao shook his head and said, "No need, how many more can you print it? Don't forget that as soon as our VIP collector's poetry book comes out, those vendors will inevitably copy it in a large amount. In less than two hours, thousands of such pirated poetry book will be released. Although these people are hateful, this time it has helped us a lot."

Pirated version is indeed very powerful. Once the genuine version is released, countless handwritten copies will be released. Within a day, all literati and poets will receive the poem book. No matter whether it is genuine or pirated, these people will eventually see Chen Ao's poems.
