Chapter 52 Advertising
Zhu Yunwen's carriage left, and hundreds of people's guards of honor left the city in the dust and set foot on the official road back to the capital.
Xiao Fan's nose was rubbed red, but he still couldn't figure it out. Zhu Yunwen made such a big show with great fanfare. Why did he come to Jiangpu? Is it like Cao Yi said, who deliberately scared himself and left with satisfaction when he saw that he was afraid? This person was too boring? Is the prince of the prince who lives this kind of life?
Don’t think about things you can’t figure out. Xiao Fan finally concluded this matter: the life of powerful people is too empty, and they are all full!
When the crisis passed, Xiao Fan's mood naturally improved. No matter how boring Zhu Yunwen was, his behavior made Xiao Fan admire him from the bottom of his heart. Xiao Fan's logic is very simple. Killing his grandson is not a good grandson. If he does not kill his grandson, he will definitely be the wise king of the country in the future.
Turning his head, I saw Chen Ying'er still looking at him with tears in her face, with joy and resentment in her eyes, which was particularly complicated.
Xiao Fan couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and walked up to her and said softly: "It scares you, it's okay, it's all over."
Chen Ying'er sobbed and finally burst into tears: "I...I thought you would be...been...been..."
Thinking of the disaster, Chen Ying'er insisted on letting herself hide first, not even afraid of implicating her and her family. It was not easy for a woman to do this for him, and Xiao Fan was moved by her feelings.
Looking at Chen Ying'er affectionately, Xiao Fan said softly: "I remember everything you are good to me. As the saying goes, the wind knows the strong grass, and the swaying shows the true love. I will..."
Before Xiao Fan finished speaking, Chen Ying'er seemed to have been electrocuted, exclaimed in anger, then looked around anxiously and ashamedly, stamping her feet and said angrily: "In front of so many people, you... are you talking nonsense!... If you want to go home and say, I... I'll leave first."
After saying that, Chen Ying'er blushed and ran away quickly with her ears covered.
Xiao Fan's eyes widened and shouted to her back: "Hey, can you listen to me finish your words? It's really rude..."
Cao Yi came up, looked at Chen Ying'er's back, and said with a smirk: "The young couple is not shy about talking about love. They are big girls, and their faces are very tender. Let me tell you the unfinished love words. What did you say just now will happen to you in the future?"
Xiao Fan stared at Chen Ying'er's back and sighed: "I just want to say that I will try to avoid the money from the Immortal Tower in the future and be the shopkeeper for her father and Lord Cao... Can this be considered a love word? Miss Chen's mind is too complicated..."
Cao Yi's head is full of black lines: "…………”
The imperial grandson left, and the streets were banned, and the people also walked onto the streets. After hearing that the imperial grandson had arrived in Jiangpu County, everyone was surprised and puzzled. Why did the imperial grandson come to this county town for nothing? After inquiring each other, everyone learned about it. After the imperial grandson entered the city, he went directly to Zuixianlou, and said a few words to the Chen family's aunt, Xiao Fan, the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou, and then returned.
Watching the fun is the nature of the people. When they heard such a sensational thing, they had something to do with Xiao Fan, a popular figure in Jiangpu recently. Everyone rushed to the open space in front of the Zuixian Tower to see what was strange about this shopkeeper Xiao. Not only did he get along with the Prime Minister of Cao County, but he also attracted the visit of His Royal Highness the current crown prince. This is a figure that is so great. If the king of the future Ming Dynasty can know His Royal Highness the Grand His Royal Highness, will this shopkeeper Xiao really make a fortune in the future?
Of course, those who are about to become famous should take a look at each other and get richer. They are the ones who have spoken to His Royal Highness the Emperor...
So, the open space in front of the originally wide Zuixian Tower was soon filled with people. The people looked at Xiao Fan, but because Xiao Fan was the future "noble man", they did not dare to come forward to talk to him. They just surrounded him from afar, laughing at him with a look of awe.
Xiao Fan faced everyone's eyes and said shyly: "I didn't expect that I would be watched by inhumanely one day. I'm so embarrassed..."
Cao Yi smiled and said, "I have countless people in Daming. How many people can know His Royal Highness the Emperor? Do you think you can't attract people?"
Xiao Fan twisted his body shyly.
Cao Yi smiled and looked at Xiao Fan with a meaningful look: "It's hard to say that the encounters of people are so close. The ups and downs are only a few days. I thought you offended His Royal Highness the Grand His Royal Highness, and the prospects were worrying, but I didn't expect His Royal Highness the Grand His Royal Highness had a good impression of you. You and him will have a friendship from now on..."
Xiao Fan smiled and said, "I just got a little bit of the halo of His Royal Highness..."
Cao Yi's eyes became deeper and deeper: "You have a friendship with me, and you have a friendship with His Royal Highness the Grand Prince. If you ask me, who will you have a deeper relationship with?"
Xiao Fan was stunned and looked at Cao Yi's smiling face. He suddenly woke up and almost forgot that behind Cao Yi was the King of Yan, a hero who would take over the prince's grandson in the future. In other words, King of Yan and Zhu Yunwen are mortal enemies who will never stop. He accidentally had a friendship with the two camps at the same time. Cao Yi's words seemed plain, but in fact they were extremely dangerous. This was to let himself stand in a team.
Thinking of this, Xiao Fan felt cold on his back, so he said seriously: "Brother Cao, I am a little talented and mediocre business son-in-law. I am respectful to you and also by His Royal Highness Grandpa. Friends are the most important thing to know each other. If you have too much utilitarianism, friends can't be called friends. Whether they are the eighth-rank county magistrate or the current grandson, they are all friends in my eyes. I really don't want to mix anything else in my relationship with you. The political situation of the court is what you big men do, and it has nothing to do with me... Do you understand what my brother means?"
Cao Yi's eyes flashed, and he was silent for a while. Finally, he laughed loudly, patted Xiao Fan's shoulder and said, "It's my brother, I'm taking a picture. I'll apologize to you here. I won't say this again in the future. Brother, you are a person with a temperament. How can my brother be inferior to you? Haha..."
Xiao Fan laughed, but he felt relieved. There was something he had always been very strange, and he didn't perform very well. Why did Cao Yi always win him over to stand in the Yan King's camp again and again? What did he like about him?
In any case, it is not the time to stand in a team, so you can drag it over. The plot of scattering kings and shaking the tiger's body and then taking a bunch of awesome little brothers to conquer the world is too unreliable. You have to eat food at a sip, do things one by one, and ambitions must be realized step by step. Everything cannot be accomplished overnight.
The people were still watching the fun around Xiao Fan. Xiao Fan and Cao Yi were talking and laughing as if no one was around, but they forgot that there was a big man standing in the distance, which was Huang Magistrate who had just led the officials from all over the yamen to welcome him.
Huang Magistrate Huang had no idea what the purpose of the Emperor's Grandson was to visit Jiangpu today. After receiving the car in a daze, he followed the Grandson's carriage all the way to the Zuixian Tower. Through the conversation between the Grandson and Xiao Fan, Huang Magistrate finally clarified the matter. In conjunction with the fact that the Grandson was not convinced by Xiao Fan's forehead, he drove to Jiangpu today, but found a place to demonstrate.
This fact made Huang Zhixian sweat in a cold sweat and almost urinated his pants.
He could not help but be frightened. Xiao Fan was a citizen under his rule. This citizen was so brave that he dared to beat His Highness the Grand Prince. If the current emperor knew about this, according to the emperor's favor of Taisun Ji and his extremely harsh nature to the ministers under his rule, how could he not be furious? The emperor would be bleeding thousands of miles away when he was angry! Everyone in the officialdom knew that today's Zi not only ruled harshly, but also liked to be in charge of the conspiracy. The simple Hu Weiyong and Lan Yu rebellion case were investigated for thirteen years. More than 40,000 people were implicated and killed, and the court was almost empty. Even the founding hero Li Shanchang was implicated and was tragically exterminated. This is what he is today's Zi's temperament!
Such a founding emperor who was murderous, how many heads did you dare to hit his grandson? It doesn’t matter if you don’t have your life. Do you want to kill me, the magistrate of Jiangpu? If the emperor asks the blame, he will say that I, the magistrate, is inadequate in the governance of my magistrate, and such a troublemaker has been ruled. Although Xiao Fan is dead, he will probably be unable to escape death. At that time, will he die unjustly?
Fortunately, His Royal Highness the current crown prince did not inherit his grandfather's violent genes. Instead, he was kind and tolerant by nature and would not pursue such a big thing. Otherwise, he might have to be buried with Xiao Fan, a troublemaker today.
Looking at Xiao Fan and Cao Yi talking and laughing as if nothing happened, Huang Magistrate was almost angry, laughing! You still have the face to smile!
The old hatred of Cao Yi's seizure of power, coupled with the new resentment that was almost implicated by Xiao Fan just now, Huang Magistrate was furious, not caring about the many people watching in front of him, he ran to Xiao Fan and Cao Yi, pointed at Cao Yi's nose and shouted: "Cao Yi! You are such a fool! You colluded with colleagues to seize the power of the superiors, and you also met bandits and people to offend the current grandson. My Jiangpu County Government Office was almost tired of you alone. You are really guilty. I can't bear it anymore and I will report to Yingtian Prefecture and the Ministry of Personnel!"
Cao Yi looked at the angry magistrate Huang's angry magistrate coldly and said slowly: "Mr. County Master, please pay attention to your demeanor. Do you want to be decent in the officialdom? You said that the officials met the bandits, and the officials dared to ask you, who is the bandits?"
Huang Magistrate pointed at Xiao Fan and said excitedly: "Isn't this person a bandit?"
Xiao Fan pointed at his nose in shock: "Why am I a bandit?"
Huang Magistrate said coldly: "You offend the grandson and commit disrespect for the emperor, it is a crime of death. Do you think you are a good citizen?"
Xiao Fan said aggrievedly: "I didn't mean it, it's just a misunderstanding..."
"Shut up! Cao Yi, you seized my power and acted against the enemy in Jiangpu. With the support of the King of Yan behind him, he was arrogant and ignored the rules of the officialdom. This is just that, I almost killed myself today. If you don't take Xiao Fan, a troublemaker, into prison, I will not let you go!"
When someone pointed at the nose and scolded, Cao Yi also became angry and snorted coldly, "What can you do if you are unwilling to give up? Go to the Ministry of Personnel to participate in me? If you can afford to lose your face, I don't care. But let me tell you that Xiao Fan is a decent citizen, and I will never be able to jail him! Offending the grandson is just a misunderstanding. His Highness the grandson has no concerns. Why are you, a seventh-rank magistrate, jumping out and shouting?"
Huang Magistrate was so angry that he trembled all over and shouted with his beard: "Your Highness the Grand Prince didn't care that it was because he was very arrogant, but Xiao Fan offended the Grand Prince. According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, his crimes should be punished. Cao Yi, do you dare to ignore the king's law?"
“…………”
“…………”
The two of them quarreled with each other. When the onlookers saw the two parents and officials quarreling in public regardless of their decency, they certainly didn't mind watching the fun for free. After all, there were few scenes of parents and officials quarreling, so the crowd began to boil again.
Unlike the excitement of the people, Xiao Fan was a little depressed.
Of course it is necessary to be low-key, but you should not be too humble when you should fight for the camera. The place where the two parents quarrel was at the door of Zuixianlou, but I was the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou. I quarreled at the door of Zuixianlou again and again, and the limelight made them come out. What is Zuixianlou?
Xiao Fan felt that he could no longer pretend to be humble and gentleman at this time. A gentleman was a profession that suffered a lot.
Xiao Fan rolled his eyes sly. Taking advantage of the two adults' quarrels and being completely selfless, he turned around and waved, attracting several girls who had just passed away from the brothel and were currently selling wine in Zuixianlou. He leaned in their ears and asked softly: "Do you still remember the advertising songs I taught you to sing a few days ago?"
The girls' eyes were inexplicably confused and nodded: "I remember not only the songs, but we also arranged the dance..."
These girls were originally from brothels, and singing and dancing were their old profession. Naturally, they could understand it at one point and learn from one example.
In the middle of the venue, the two adults' quarrels have escalated to the level of personal attacks.
"You vulgar and uncivilized martial artists, you don't know how to be an official and go home to farm. If you are the county magistrate in Jiangpu, it is a big disaster!"
"What's wrong with me being an official? You are an incompetent county magistrate who is only worthy of being locked up in the house and studying hard. Being an official is a disaster for the country and the people. You're going to get out early to benefit the people. He doesn't urinate and see what kind of virtue you have! Bah!"
“…………”
“…………”
Xiao Fan took advantage of the situation and took advantage of the slowdown of the two of them, rushed forward with a quick step, and stretched out his hands to separate the two adults.
"Stop—" Xiao Fan raised his hand and made a pause gesture, "Sir, please pause for a moment!"
The two of them were interrupted by arguing and felt very unhappy. So they glared at Xiao Fan at the same time, and said in a bad tone: "What do you want to do?"
Xiao Fan looked at the two of them seriously, and after a while, he said solemnly: "...It's time to insert the advertisement!"
Huang Zhixian's eyes were straight: "Advertisement?"
Xiao Fan rolled his eyes. **Ancient people didn't know anything. They had to create some benefits for me when they quarreled in my territory.
Xiao Fan ignored them, but waved his hand. With a whoosh, there were five girls waving in the open space in front of the Zuixian Tower. The five of them stood in a row, each of whom waved a green handkerchief in his hand, facing the astonishing eyes of the onlookers. The water sleeves relaxed, the handkerchief shook gently, and their seductive figures were swaying, and then they started singing in unison.
"I'm not afraid of being hungry. Zuixianlou is here, so I'm not afraid of being afraid..."
"Wow!"
The onlookers were so scared that they retreated back.
Taking advantage of the girls singing advertising songs, Xiao Fan quickly stepped forward and pulled Cao Yi aside, and worked hard behind him to rub his shoulders.
"Brother Cao, after the advertisement is over, you go up and continue to fight with the magistrate, and strive to completely scold him to death in the next round!"
Cao Yi was rubbed and hissed, "I said, what the hell are you doing? What are these girls singing?"
Xiao Fan smiled and said, "This is an advertisement. Any business store needs advertising to make it widely known to the people. This is the effect we want. Brother Cao, Zuixianlou has half of you. I am making money for you..."
Cao Yi opened his mouth and said nothing, the advertisement in the middle of the venue was approaching the end.
The five girls finished singing and started their last narration. The five of them flew to the onlookers first, and then one of the leading girls said coquettishly: "Welcome to Zuixianlou..."
The last five people said affectionately: "Zuixian Tower, the building of youth, the building of friendship..."
Whoosh!
Five people left the venue.
Immediately afterwards, the gong rang.
Xiao Fan said in a deep voice: "The ad is over, the two players will come on the stage!"
Then Xiao Fan pushed Cao Yi hard, and Cao Yi was pushed into the middle in a daze, staring at each other with big eyes and small eyes, and the two of them were full of confusion.
Xiao Fan waved his fist hard behind Cao Yi and whispered: "Brother Cao, keep arguing, don't be upset! The audience needs passion!"
Cao Yi and Huang Magistrate opened their mouths at the same time, but they didn't know how to continue. After Xiao Fan made such a fuss, the interest in quarreling just now had long disappeared.
The two were silent, and the onlookers were silent. The gate of the Zuixian Tower where a hundred people gathered was silent.
It took a long time...
Huang Magistrate glared at Xiao Fan fiercely, then snorted coldly at Cao Yi: "Hmph! I am too lazy to argue with you!"
Cao Yi was not willing to be outdone, so he brushed his sleeve heavily and said sarcastically: "I'm too lazy to argue with you! Fuck! Look at your grandma's pummeling sex that doesn't like if she doesn't like her uncle!"
The two of them seemed to be smoky and smelly farts from the middle. After a cold snorted, they turned around and walked backwards, walking quickly and quickly.
