Chapter 248 Inspiration
Yu Jiuer couldn't close her mouth because of laughing!
Shang Buqun's performance today gave her a lot of inspiration.
Instead of going out and distributing flyers, it is better to organize more activities to attract people.
She doesn't have the financial resources of Shang Buqun, and can't spend money so recklessly, but that doesn't mean she won't arrange other activities to seduce people, right?
Thinking of this, Yu Jiuer persuaded Shang Buqun to help her watch the stall, then turned around and told Shadow: "Prepare the car, I want to go to Yunwu Villa!"
Men and women working together makes the work less tiring. She invited the beauty from the Moon Full in the West Tower, and added some handsome men to cooperate with her. Wouldn't it be perfect?
Shadow was stunned and asked, "Master, are you going to Yunwu Villa now?"
Yu Jiuer nodded: "Yes! Fast!"
But just as she got in the car, Yu Jiuer remembered something and told Shadow: "Let's go to Linglong Pavilion first."
As soon as they entered Linglong Pavilion, Yu Jiuer immediately ordered Yu Tao: "Go to the store right away and ask the store manager to find two or three hundred sets of men's ready-made clothes with the same style. They must be of the same style so that they look neat and eye-catching when worn."
"What do we need so much for at once?" Yu Tao was puzzled.
Yu Jiuer smiled and said, "The soldiers of the Yulin Army are tall and handsome. I plan to go to Yunwu Villa to select some handsome men from the Yulin Army to help me with publicity. Of course, they must wear fancy clothes. I can't let them help me distribute flyers in smelly uniforms, right?"
Yu Tao was a little worried: "I see, but I wonder if there are so many ready-made clothes of the same style in the store?"
Yu Jiuer said shrewdly, "How could there be none? The people in the business shop secretly copied many similar designs based on the designs I designed for the Prime Minister and the Prince. Now they have made tens of thousands of sets and sold them all over the place. They can definitely produce hundreds of sets, just go and get them!"
After Yu Jiuer explained this, Yu Tao immediately understood and nodded, "Don't worry! Before you come back, I promise to get you hundreds of nice men's ready-made clothes!"
Yu Jiuer naturally feels at ease when Yu Tao does the job.
After she explained some things to Yutao, she immediately boarded the carriage heading to Yunwu Villa.
Within half a day, Yu Jiuer rode to the merchant house with two hundred handsome men from the Yulin Army.
A group of people dressed neatly and put on makeup in the backyard of the shop, and Yu Jiuer led them in a grand parade.
"There will be a song and dance performance at the square at 3 p.m. today. It's free to watch. Everyone is welcome to come!"
The handsome men of the Yulin Army distributed the leaflets that Yutao had written on the spur of the moment and explained them to the people one by one.
Yu Jiuer asked them to split up into several groups to spread the word.
She hurried to Yueman West Tower to find Yunniang and arrange a singing and dancing performance.
Yunniang nodded happily: "I will stop performing in the building tonight and concentrate on helping you in the square. If there are many people, we will perform until the evening!"
"Great! Thank you Yunniang for your support! However, it's too tiring to rely solely on the singing girls of Yue Man Xi Lou to perform. Nearly half of you are still out here helping me distribute flyers for publicity! We must not let them continue to work hard at night." Yu Jiuer thought for a moment and said,
"I want to invite a troupe to perform with you. It would be great if the famous Lingyun Troupe in the capital could perform there!"
Yunniang was shocked and said, "You are so bold! How can it be so easy to invite the Lingyun Opera Troupe? That troupe is very popular in the capital. Even if you send an invitation in advance, you may not be able to invite them, let alone this sudden event!"
"I'll go over and try my luck! If it doesn't work, I'll give them more money and see!" Yu Jiuer still didn't want to give up, "If it doesn't work, I can arrange a performance with them tomorrow or the day after tomorrow!"
"It's not enough to have money to hire them. That troupe has no shortage of money..." Yun Niang hesitated to speak, and seeing her eyes full of light, she sighed, "Forget it, you can go and give it a try! Their troupe owner is a weirdo, maybe he can help."
"Okay! Then please go to the square to set up the stage first, Yunniang! I'll be back soon!"
Having worked with Yun Niang before, Yu Jiuer knew her character and was no longer polite to her.
She rushed to the Lingyun Opera Troupe in a hurry.
After she announced the name of Prince Jing's concubine, Liu Qingyun, the owner of the Lingyun Opera Troupe, came out to meet her.
Looking at the graceful beauty walking towards her from afar, Yu Jiuer originally thought it was a woman, but when she got closer, she saw that it was a man?
Or a... charming and seductive man?
He raised his orchid finger, first looked Yu Jiuer up and down for a long while, and then pinched his throat and said: "Prince Jing, Concubine Yu, I have heard of your great name for a long time!"
Yu Jiuer bowed politely to him and said, "I'm sorry for disturbing you, Master Liu, please forgive me!"
Yu Jiuer's humble and courteous attitude made Liu Qingyun feel shy.
He also bowed to Yu Jiuer and said, "I don't deserve it! I don't deserve it! You are the concubine of Prince Jing, and it's really embarrassing for me to be so polite to me!"
Yu Jiuer had something to ask of him, so she bent even lower: "All men in the world are brothers, there is no need for Master Liu and I to discuss those empty formalities, I am here to ask for something!"
Yu Jiuer's gesture forced Liu Qingyun to bend down again, "You're welcome! You're welcome! You've worked hard for the rise of the people of Yinshan, and you've been busy for the women's imperial examination. Your deeds have spread all over the streets and alleys. I admire you very much. What's the matter? Just tell me!"
Green Sleeves and the other members of the troupe were watching from outside, their waists almost bent to the ground, and they were secretly laughing with their hands covering their mouths.
Even worshipping in the church is not as pious as this, right?
Yu Jiuer didn't stand up, so Liu Qingyun naturally didn't want to get up first.
The two of them raised their eyes slightly at the same time and looked at each other. Their gazes met and they looked into each other's eyes and were stunned at the same time!
Suddenly, the two smiled at each other, and a sense of friendship spread out.
Yu Jiuer was touched by the sincerity in his eyes.
Liu Qingyun was shocked by Yu Jiuer's non-discriminatory look.
Most people, when they first met him, would look at him with disdain because of his appearance and shrill voice, consciously or unconsciously, but she didn't.
Her eyes were clear and innocent, and she didn't treat him as an outsider.
Such a sincere woman is rare in the world, not to mention what she had done before and is doing now, which also impressed him.
Liu Qingyun smiled and said, "If Concubine Yu doesn't mind, I, Liu Qingyun, am willing to be your friend!"
"Since we are friends, you should call me Yu Jiuer, right? Brother Qingyun!" Yu Jiuer's eyebrows were curved, and she was already familiar with him and treated him as a friend.
"You have a straightforward personality, Yu Jiuer, I'm determined to make you my friend! Please come in!" Liu Qingyun happily invited Yu Jiuer to the hall for a detailed discussion.
After listening to Yu Jiuer's request, Liu Qingyun nodded and agreed without thinking.
The junior sister standing behind him suddenly said, "Big Brother, we have an appointment with Prince Ning's Mansion tonight. It would be bad to break the appointment, right?"
Yu Jiuer said hurriedly: "Prince Ning is the uncle of Prince Jing. I will just ask Prince Jing to go and it shouldn't be a big problem!"
"Prince Jing doesn't need to come forward. I will write a letter to apologize to Princess Ning and say that I will support the petition and make contributions to the women's special examination. I think she should understand!" Liu Qingyun waved her hand.
The junior sister muttered, "It's not you who's going to take the imperial examination, why are you joining in the fun?"
"You are short-sighted!" Liu Qingyun scolded, with a charming smile on her beautiful face, "I can contribute my own strength to the Women's Imperial Examination. If it succeeds, our troupe may be recorded in history books in the future. I am playing the long game to catch a big fish. My Lingyun Troupe may become famous from now on!"
Yu Jiuer was touched. How could she have met Yun Niang and Liu Qingyun, two people with unique vision and insightful minds?
Thank God!
After the deal was settled, Yu Jiuer and the Lingyun Opera Troupe immediately went to the square to prepare for the performance.
When they arrived at the square, Shang Buqun was ordering people to help the singing girls of Yue Man Xi Lou set up a temporary stage.
A red carpet was laid on the ground, a large screen was pulled up at the back, and several tall braziers were placed around so that when night fell, direct lighting could be provided and the performance could continue.
Looking at this simple stage, Shang Buqun said with some disdain: "After my order, Shang Buqun, you still built such a simple stage, do I still have any face left?"
He sat on a chair and waved his hand: "Someone, bring the night-shining pearl and the flower pot!"
Soon, the stage was surrounded by more than twenty huge luminous pearls and a circle of brightly blooming flowers.
In an instant, the level of the entire stage was greatly improved.
"That's pretty good. It's finally worthy of the level of our Lingyun Opera Troupe." Liu Qingyun's junior sister finally put aside the contempt she had when she first arrived and nodded with satisfaction.
However, when she saw the people rushing in like a tide with green eyes, she pouted and said, "Our Lingyun Opera Troupe has always performed for dignitaries and nobles, and has never performed for the common people at such a low price!"
While putting on makeup, Liu Qingyun said, "Just think of it as poverty alleviation! Let's sing well, just to support my new friend!"
