Chapter 152 The Circus Begins

Chapter 515 The Circus Begins

On early summer nights, around the circus' station, there are crowds of people and brightly lit.

For the villagers of Onesti Town, this scene is more lively than the festival; about 70% of the villagers gather here, and even those who can't afford tickets want to come nearby to see the fun.

After all, they may not have had a few chances to meet circus performances of this scale in their lifetime.

Although there were some gypsy teams and wandering artists in the past came to this town to play the autumn wind, those were just small-scale shows, which were not the same as those with such serious performances that had set up huge performance tents, had program lists, and tickets.

I would like to mention it here. In fact, until yesterday, their circus pretending to be hasn't even made the "ticket" thing.

Originally, according to Lao Feng's intention, on the night of the performance, the audience could just "queule in line to pay to enter the venue" directly at the entrance of the tent, but after Sun Huang joined the "management", he immediately told him that you were nonsense.

Not to mention how complicated the currencies were circulated in Europe back then, just take the folk customs at that time as an example. Many ordinary people were still bargaining, so when you charge, you will inevitably encounter bargaining. Then, in addition to the "back door" leading to the backstage, the tent in our performance is the one that can allow the audience to enter and exit. If you put it there to "queuing up for payment", isn't it blocked to death?

So under the supervision of Sun Huang, everyone quickly made a batch of "play tickets".

Although the things are made very rough, the point is that the two things "ticket sales" and "ticket inspection and admission" can be carried out separately.

At that time, you can set up a few more ticket booths and start selling tickets a few hours in advance, so that the people at the ticket office can slowly argue with the villagers... Anyway, when it comes to the entrance, you only need to check tickets at the entrance, so that there will be no congestion.

After doing this, Lao Feng felt admiration for Sun Huang and the others again. He thought to himself that this great power is worthy of being an oriental power. The nobles from there seemed to know everything and even organize large-scale performances. It seems that they have to consult them in the future.

Of course, he didn't know at this time, and he would regret his thoughts soon...

…………

The hour of Xu, the first time.

The opening time of the circus has come, and most of the townspeople who came to the show have completed the ticket check.

At this moment, those who are still strolling outside the tent are basically hawkers, beggars, gangsters, pickpockets, etc. They are like a group of hyenas wandering in the wilderness, searching for any leftovers tonight.

The members of the Rangers team will definitely not take these people seriously. After all, they are really capable of working in "security".

All the pure combatants in the team who are not capable of performing programs and have no intelligence to participate in finance or logistics work... are commonly known as "reckless men", all are assigned to be used for security.

So, let alone a few small town gangsters, there was a group of robbers coming to raid today. They all had confidence that they could wipe out the invaders without the audience in the tents being completely aware of it.

However, the person they were about to wait for at this time was not a robber, but a light-loaded cavalry team.

In the middle of the team, there was a luxuriously decorated carriage.

The man in the carriage was undoubtedly the Lord Koman.

The book here implies that there are naturally more than Onesti in the villages and towns in Koman's territory, but Onesti is the closest town to his castle, so he usually does not bring too many people when he comes here. In occasions like today, there is no need for the cavalry guarding him to wear heavy armor.

"Father, we're here."

When the team reached more than ten meters in front of the tent, they stopped slowly. Then a tall and handsome blonde young man in the cavalry drove his horse to the carriage, leaned down and rushed to Koman in the carriage at the appropriate volume and said this.

"Okay Roy, I'll get down now." Koeman responded quickly.

After hearing this, Roy waved his whip and gave up some space.

A few seconds later, Koeman pushed open the car door himself and walked off the carriage with a very agile pace.

Tonight, the lord wore a very expensive and decent noble formal dress, and the boots on his feet were also matched with long soft boots, but at this moment he still stepped on the slightly muddy ground without any scruples, and did not show any strange look.

Obviously, Koeman was different from most nobles at that time. He was an unconventional person and a person who did practical things. He had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he was not as pretentious as his aristocratic colleagues in many aspects, and he also cultivated his son in this way.

This is why Roy Gabriel Basta, the son of the lord who is only eighteen years old this year, is a veteran who has been training with the cavalry team for many years and has assumed the responsibility of guarding his father.

"What's the smell? Do I have to come down?"

And a few seconds after Coman got out of the car, another person's voice came from the carriage.

Each of these words is a disgusting speech, from the mouth of Mrs. Venaza, Koman's second wife.

This lady is from the once prominent Lemondo family, and she is over teenagers younger than Koeman and is only in her early thirties this year. The reason why she would marry Koeman is very simple, it was simply that her already declining family needed a marriage to return to the upper class stage, which was very common at the time.

Koeman was very good at staying with Venaza after marriage. In the past five years of marriage, he has fulfilled all the obligations that a good husband should do. However, Miss Venaza, who has been spoiled since childhood, seems to take these for granted, and... she is obviously not very interested in this "circus trip" tonight.

However, generally speaking, the main participants must go with their wife when attending such entertainment activities. If she doesn't come tonight, it will be easy for people to talk to, so she reluctantly can't follow her.

"Okay, my dear, we've all arrived, get off the bus." Koeman didn't get angry, and his tone was a kind of helplessness that he had become accustomed to.

"Oh...oh my god, look at the mud on the ground, my shoes are definitely ruined." Madame Venaza complained, holding her skirt and getting out of the car carefully.

And just as soon as she appeared, the men nearby stood there and stared at her.

Venasa is indeed a very beautiful woman. Her light blue baroque long dress highlights the plump and mature figure of the thirty-year-old woman to the extreme, and her delicate facial features and makeup make her look as bright and charming as a girl.

The moment Venasa bent down and walked off the carriage, her round and tall breasts seemed to be about to be squeezed out of the low-cut skirt. You can even imagine how she put the bones in the skirt in it, and how she slowly pulled the drawstring on her back, tied her soft waist tighter and held her upright upper edge higher and higher...

"The Lord and his wife arrived, are you still not allowed to salute the untouchables?" At this time, Koman's cavalry captain saw the idle masses around and some of the "securities" of the circus standing there as if the water was about to flow out, and quickly spoke out and said intimidation.

His roar, or "reminder", was actually for everyone's good, because if Mrs. Venaza feels that she has been offended, she will kill someone.

When everyone was drunk, they almost came to their senses and looked away; those who were blocking the road hurriedly retreated aside and bowed to the lord's family who were walking towards them.

At the same time, at the entrance of the performance tent, Lao Feng had already stood there waiting for a long time.

The lord's family did not have to buy tickets; according to Sun Huang's instructions, Lao Feng had already circled a "VIP seat" for them, ensuring that they could watch the performance at the best angle and in the most spacious position without being disturbed by other audiences.

Someone may ask when he sees this, where are the performances now?

Of course, the harm has not begun yet.

The lord Koman hasn't arrived yet, how dare you start the show?

Let’s take a step back and say, even if you dare to start the show, the people dare not stay and continue watching. What if the Lord is angry because he missed the opening and wants to kill some people to relieve the pressure, and what should I do if the Lord of the Lord is angry?

Therefore, although the original opening time had already passed seven or eight minutes, because Lao Feng had greeted the audience before and said that Koeman was going to come to the performance tonight, no one dared to make a fuss if they didn't start the show.

To put it short, a few minutes later, the three of Koman's family of three sat down in the VIP seat, and the guards they brought were divided into two teams, one group guarding outside the tent, and the other team followed them into the tent, sitting a few meters away around their seats.

"Ah... this place is so stinking. My dear, how long do we have to sit here?" As soon as he sat down, Venasa began to ask about leaving the seat.

I'll see the wrong version one by one!

"A little patient, we've just arrived." Koeman did not answer his wife's question positively, because he knew that Venasa just likes to act coquettishly and complain, but he usually has a sense of pride, just keep her steady.

"Ladies! Gentlemen! Good evening..." On the other side, Lao Feng had already arrived at the circular clearing in the middle of the tent, and began to host with his loud voice, "Welcome to Gaohard Circus, I am the leader of the troupe 'Hillas'." Here he used a pseudonym, "Tonight, I will take you all to witness a thrilling storm. This will be a fantasy experience you have never seen before. I hope you can all open your eyes, prick up your ears, and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime adventure..."

These opening words were also compiled by Sun Huang discussing with him, and it didn't take too long. Anyway, the focus is not on what to say, but on the way to create a mysterious and upset atmosphere to mobilize the audience's emotions.

Lao Feng said there for a while, and finally added, "Before the performance start, let us greet the Lord Shu Zun and the Lord who has been here tonight." Only then did the opening ceremony be concluded.

Then... two clowns wearing red noses and colorful wig hoods, pale faces, and full fancy onesie, came out on a wheelbarrow.

Originally, the clown played by Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai only needed to come out to interact with the audience at the opening moment and in various performances to liven up the atmosphere.

However, because they participated in the "advancement" of all the programs tonight, and even the arrangement of the entire performance, they now have to "run the whole audience".

For example, if the animal trainer has played halfway, he wants to find someone to come and help him "knitting the lion" together, so he looks for a clown.

The person who played with the flying knife suddenly said that he wanted to find an assistant to push the apple and also to find a clown.

They became firefighters and had to participate in almost everything as assistants, which also facilitated the performance to make corrections on the spot when the performer made mistakes.

In this way, the performance began to proceed in an orderly manner.

Since this is the first performance of this "fake circus", many people are indeed not used to performing. Fortunately, two clowns frequently rescue the scene, and they can cover it up every time... So, the atmosphere on the scene gradually became warm, and the laughter and cheers of the audience gradually became louder.

The Koeman family, including Mrs. Navensa, soon became very excited - they did not realize that the circus was pretended by a group of amateurs.

I guess many viewers realized that after seeing this, they had realized that in fact, the entertainment performance after the "improvement" of Double Harmony is far more entertaining than those of the peers of this era.

Although none of them are professional, the...programming and entertainment skills they used are all things accumulated and summarized by countless artists over the next few hundred years. It can be said that they stood on the shoulders of giants and their heads broke through the ceiling.

Even Sun and Huang themselves did not realize that they had brought the circus to a level far higher than "if you can fool the nobles, you can become a master", and they thought they could just get through it safely tonight.

Time passed without realizing it, and about an hour and a half of the performance was almost the limit of the audience's observation at that time.

It was not until halfway through the last show "Flying Man in the Air" that Sun Huang finally had some rest time and could sit down and take a breath together in the backstage.

"Mom... I'm so tired. If I don't do this in every game in the future, I might as well be exposed." Sun Yixie sat down and started complaining.

"Don't worry, it's impossible for any lords to come to see every scene in the future." Huang Donglai said, "It's not necessarily that we will become famous after performing such a show, and then all kinds of powerful people come to visit wherever we go."

"Well... Speaking of that lord..." Suddenly, Sun Yixie seemed to have thought of something. He pulled the topic away, "I see that his wife... OK."

"Hmph..." Huang Donglai sneered, "Brother Sun has something. In such a high-intensity performance, he still has everything he should have swept, right?"

"Mao! I'm just observing Koeman..." Sun Yixie immediately began to argue, "Who asked his wife to sit next to him? Since it has entered my sight, what's wrong with me?"

"Edited, continue to edit it." Huang Donglai stopped using his trick. "Do you want me to help you review the quotations you used to 'appreciate' many female anchors and comment on them one by one?"

"Mom! Keep me off..." Sun Yixie was anxious at the time and was about to start squirting.

unexpectedly!

"ah--"

Along with a scream from the audience, there was a sudden noise outside.

Sun and Huang were both shocked when they heard the sound. They didn't chat anymore. They quickly put on their heads and red noses and rushed out.

Originally, the two thought that something might have happened to the "flying man in the air", such as someone who made a mistake fell to the ground, which caused the audience to exclaim.
Chapter completed!
