Journey To the World of Film and Television Chapter 538

Chapter 538 Co-author You are the boss, so what am I?

"Ms. Si Teng's tea house was originally transformed from a restaurant. Both the size of the area and the capacity of the customers are far superior to ordinary tea houses. Although they are not following the 'elegant and chic' route, many customers We all went to their place to listen to books and watch plays, and it was not us who had the biggest impact on the business, but those old big shops in Chatang Lane.”

Seeing the confusion in Sun Sanniang and Song Yinzhang's eyes, Zhao Pan'er put down the tea leaves she was sifting, smiled helplessly, and explained to them.

"Didn't you say that the teahouses in Chatang Lane copied our fruit? How did it get involved in Tongfu Teahouse?" Song Yinzhang still holds 10% of the shares in Zhou Ji's side, and here he is doing it with Zhao Pan's son and grandson Sanniang Business, I couldn't help but bring back the topic in embarrassment, and pushed the food box on the table forward.

"Yes, Pan'er, Chatang Lane copied our fruits, and even hired a pipa girl to imitate the introduction and play the music. We can't just sit and wait for death, right?" Sun Sanniang nodded, with a worried expression on her face.

"Don't worry, from the first day I thought of this peach blossom fruit, I knew that sooner or later others would learn it. However, this is also a good thing." Zhao Pan'er broke open a peach blossom cake and gave it to Song Yinzhang and Sun Sanniang , "Come on, let's have a taste first."

Song Yinzhang took a bite of the fruit, frowned and said, "It's too sweet."

Sun Sanniang also shook her head, put down the fruit and said, "The stuffing is too oily, the skin is too hard, and it's not crispy at all."

"This is the end." Zhao Pan'er smiled slightly, and said calmly, "Miss Si Teng never shy away from imitating their 'Sancai Bowl' in the tea house on the other side of the tea soup alley, because she knows that tea sets can be imitated, and storytelling can be opened. However, the core troupe performance requires a lot of time and energy to prepare, just like this fruit, lack of preparation, no matter how similar the appearance is, it can be divided into high and low at the entrance."

Song Yinzhang was still not reconciled to let it go, thought for a while and said: "But those who have never tasted our fruit don't know the way here. Shen Ruzhuo said that there are many people rushing to buy cakes in the tea soup alley. They sell If there are too many, our guests will be diverted away?!"

"Silly girl, do you think there are many teahouses and restaurants imitating storytellers these days? Even pedestrians and hawkers in the streets and alleys know Qin Xianglian and Chen Shimei. The teahouse is famous."

Zhao Pan'er smiled, looked at the two of them and said, "We, there are only three people in total. After working hard all day, we can only make dozens of boxes of cakes at most, and greet less than a hundred guests. Let's use our strengths to make up for our weaknesses. As long as the three characters of Jingyaxin are done well, as for those who learn how to play the pipa from you, I have my own way."

Song Yinzhang and Sun Sanniang looked at each other in doubt, wondering what kind of medicine Zhao Paner was selling in the gourd.

The next day, there were fewer people in the teahouse.

In addition to a large number of customers going to Tongfu Tea House to catch up, some customers have been lost to the cheap and affordable Tea Soup Lane.

After listening to the three pipa pieces, just as Mr. Zhuoshi and some of Yuan Tuntian's regular customers were about to leave, Zhao Pan'er saluted everyone and said with a gentle smile, “The shop has been open for half a month. To thank you all, we will perform another pipa music.” , please move your steps."

Mr. Zhuoshi was surprised: "So, if you don't buy sweet-scented osmanthus drink, you can still go upstairs to listen to music?"

Zhao Paner nodded in unison, "I have prepared fruit drinks for everyone."

"Oh, good~"

Yuan Tuntian clasped his palms together and said with a smile, "Isn't this a blessing from heaven~!"

The so-called "high-end" route with a half-covered face, taking advantage of Song Yinzhang's reputation as a performer for Princess Qian, priced the tea and fruit extremely expensive, even Mr. Zhuoshi and Yuan Tuntian could only sit downstairs and listen to the music , rarely go upstairs.

A piece of "Mingfei Song" has a clear sound and thousands of turns, which attracted everyone's admiration, but Mr. Zhuo Shi could hear that the song art seemed to be more deficient than before. After a while, another song "Mingfei Song" sounded, and it felt like spring warmth for a while Hexu, as cold as bone for a while, and Yuan Tuntian couldn't help wiping away his tears when he touched the place of deep resentment.

The door was opened lightly, and a woman came out of the quiet room on the other side, knelt down in front of Song Yinzhang's door, and everyone surrounded her.

"Su Niang is willing to pay a hundred gold, and begs Lady Song to accept me as an apprentice!"

Soon the door opened, Song Yinzhang took off his veil, helped the woman in front of him, and said softly: "Since we are all of the same way, we can learn from each other in the future, so why stick to some status? Come, talk here."

"Although Su Niang is already a master, she is still inferior in front of Mrs. Song."

"How can it be inferior! Su Niang's "Ming Fei Song" is full of resentment, but Ming Concubine is going out for the country, how can she just act like a little girl? Song Niangzi's "Ming Concubine Song" is full of resentment. The second floor is wind and frost, the third floor is longing for the homeland, and the fourth floor is the sound of gold and stone, which inspires Qingyue and has a lofty artistic conception.”

Listening to the praises from the crowd, Song Yinzhang looked down at Zhao Pan'er downstairs, revealing a rare confident smile from the inside out.

It has to be said that Zhao Pan'er's plan to step on people to become famous was quite successful. Even Su Niang, who is quite famous in the city, lost to Song Yinzhang in the pipa song, which made those who couldn't copy Tongfu Teahouse only copy the half-covered teahouse. Stores are helpless.

For a while, most of the tea customers went to Tongfu, and the small ones went to Banshimian. How can the remaining customers be divided up by so many shops in Chatang Lane?

Now the shopkeeper Hu of Qingmingfang couldn't bear it anymore, and immediately called the shopkeepers of the major teahouses in Chatang Lane to discuss countermeasures.

The shopkeepers of these teahouses were extremely dissatisfied with the fact that Tongfu Teahouse robbed everyone of their business, and now they were taken over by a teahouse run by a young lady. After discussion, they decided to hold a tea fighting meeting, inviting Tongfu Teahouse and Participate together with half-hidden faces, and drive away these outsiders who came to Beijing to beg in front of everyone.

Tongfu Teahouse, in the evening.

Si Teng was still stepping down from the well-arranged stage, his eyes swept over the black crowd blocking the door, he looked coldly and indifferently at the proud shopkeeper Hu in front of him, and walked straight to the grand master's chair facing the stage Sitting down, he said lightly, "I understand, what you mean is that half-covering your face has lost Su Niang's face, and you can no longer invite the pipa girl to solicit customers, so you come to trouble us?"

"That's right. Ah, that's not right." Shopkeeper Hu nodded his head as a matter of course, and quickly denied, "The way of tea in ancient times talks about the virtues of a gentleman, quietness and harmony, and it is a dignified place to drink tea in peace. It's as noisy and chaotic as Goulan tiles, it's really insulting the true meaning of tea ceremony, I'm ashamed to work with you! Where is your boss, tell him to come out”

Shopkeeper Hu became more and more excited as he spoke, the veins in his neck popped up, and his voice became louder and louder.

"Are you done?"

An unhurried voice came lightly, interrupting shopkeeper Hu's provocation.

Si Teng sat calmly on the teacher's chair, his light tone didn't seem to be mixed with too many emotions.

Shopkeeper Hu's expression froze, watching Si Teng slowly pick up the teacup beside him, he suddenly felt a kind of strength and confidence that only a high-ranking person had in the other party.

Hearing the movement in front of the stage, Zhou Ji lifted the curtain and came out of the backyard, just in time to see a theater manager walking towards Si Teng, still calling out 'boss'.

'boss? '

Zhou Ji paused, watched Si Teng talking to that person, dispatched the memory of the past, and suddenly realized that it seems that the head of the troupe and the famous actor in Liyuan are both called "Boss"

Recalling Si Teng's half-smile expression in the first two chapters, the corners of Zhou Ji's mouth twitched, and he was suddenly dumbfounded.

Co-author You are the boss, so what am I?

"Boss Zhou, Boss Zhou, our tea shop in Beijing is preparing for a tea fight in a few days." Shopkeeper Hu saw Zhou Ji's figure, immediately fled the low pressure area, and walked towards him quickly.

I don't know why, when facing this 'Boss Si', there is always a sense of self-ashamed and humble, and that kind of silent strength makes people dare not raise any thoughts of resistance.

Shopkeeper Hu's words of "Boss Zhou" made Zhou Ji very useful. He gave Si Teng a proud and showy look, but was rolled back.

Zhou Ji didn't take it seriously, and felt that the shopkeeper Hu's attitude was obviously more humble and respectful, and he didn't think it was funny.

The tea fighting conference was obviously set up by the tea shops in the capital to run on Tongfu Teahouse and Banmianmian. Zhou Ji knew this, but he still agreed to participate. It happened that he could take this opportunity to further expand the influence of Tongfu Teahouse and expand the business of the teahouse. Be stronger.

On the other side, Qing Luofang's shopkeeper Wang also half-hidden his face and said similar provocative words.

The three of Zhao Pan'er and Song Yinzhang were so angry that the other party said one by one, "Musicist Zuocha" and "Brothhouse sells laughter", especially the sentence "Lowly woman with flowers on the wall and willows on the road" made Sun Sanniang throw away the rag in her hand with a slap, and went up Prepare to attack the opponent.

Zhao Paner hurriedly stopped Sun Sanniang, accepted the invitation of shopkeeper Wang, and decided to hold a tea fighting meeting at the headquarters of the tea shop two days later.

Twenty-seven teahouses in the capital are going to fight tea with Xindian Tongfu teahouse and half-covered face. When they heard the news, the people on the street rushed to tell each other, and it spread throughout the capital in just two days. On that day, many literati, scholars and college students gathered in the backyard of the tea shop to participate in the grand event.

Zhou Ji himself didn't have much research on tea. When he was in the Legend of Soul Wearing Wulin before, he could chat with the beggars in the alley for an afternoon with a bowl of rough tea and a plate of melon seeds, and he didn't feel bad about drinking it.

But now it's time for a tea fight, so naturally our Miss Si Teng has to appear in person.

There are three long tables in the hall on the first floor, and shopkeeper Hu, as the representative selected by the tea shop in the capital, naturally takes the lead.

Zhao Paner and Si Teng were located on both sides of the building, facing each other, and the five guests serving as judges sat side by side in front of the screen facing the main seat, waiting for the tea fight to start.

Zhao Pan'er took a deep look at Si Teng, who was directly in front of her, and the flame hidden in the deepest part of her eyes was ignited again.

After the last chapter, she expressed her heart to Sun Sanniang. Although she has recognized her 'inferiority psychology' now, she still wants to gain confidence from Si Teng.

Even if that confidence is full of vanity

Si Teng put on a light gold leaf-decorated double-breasted jacket in line with the ancient costumes of the Song Dynasty, and a plain inner robe and a light-colored gauze skirt lined with silk embroidery. His cool and calm expression was as calm and unhurried as before, and the confidence that came out of his bones, Just like how he dared to invite the masters of various factions of Xuanmen to a banquet before recovering his strength, he didn't pay attention to this tea fight at all.

Zhou Ji and Hong Kui are next to Si Teng, and opposite are Sun Sanniang and Song Yinzhang who is a little nervous.

Zhao Pan'er slowly retracted her gaze, looked at Shopkeeper Hu who was on the main seat, and said, "I wonder what the rules of tea fighting in Tokyo are?"

Shopkeeper Hu glanced at the venue and saw that everyone had arrived. He looked at both sides with a haughty face and said, "Tokyo tea competition consists of three types: soup color, water marks, and tea flavor. Invite five guests to judge, three wins and two losses, how about it?"

Zhao Paner nodded slightly, stretched out her hand and said, "Please~"

Si Teng naturally had no objection, the corner of his mouth raised a slight arc, and he nodded slightly, "Please~"

Shopkeeper Hu took the lead in showing the tea box and tea cakes to everyone, "My tea uses Beiyuan Xianchun. As the saying goes, Mingqian tea is as expensive as gold."

A entourage opened the tea box, glanced at the five judges, Zhao Paner, Si Teng and the others, and then walked around the field to show the surrounding people.

Zhao Paner opened a tea house in Qiantang, so how could she not know the preciousness of the tea cakes from Beiyuan Xianchun?

Coughing lightly, Zhao Paner pretended to be calm and said, "We came from Qiantang, so naturally we have to use the Yuqianjing camellia from Qiantang."

Song Yinzhang opened the tea box and glanced at the five judges. He nervously walked to Si Teng's table and showed it to Hongkui Si Teng and Zhou Ji. He gave her an encouraging look, wanting her not to care, but the little white rabbit avoided her sight and encouraged a lonely.

After watching the tea leaves displayed by Song Yinzhang, the shopkeeper Hu showed disdain, and turned to look at Tongfu Tea House, which had not yet displayed the tea leaves.

Sito's expression was indifferent, and she glanced at Hongkui next to her. Hongkui was a little reluctant to be dispatched by Sito, but out of a competitive spirit, she opened the tea box and walked over to the judges.

Siteng wrote lightly, "The tea I use is Chiteng silk."

Chitengsi?

Since knowing that Tongfu Teahouse will also participate in the tea fighting meeting, Song Yinzhang has not been to the teahouse again in order to avoid suspicion and also because of embarrassment.

Noticing the sight of Zhao Paner and Sun Sanniang looking at her, Song Yinzhang frowned slightly and shook his head, expressing that he didn't know either.

Hongkui walked past the three of them with a tea box. Zhao Pan'er looked it over carefully and found that the tea cake was black with fine silk lines. It smelled no tea fragrance, and she had never seen it before.

Looking up at Si Teng on the opposite side, he found that Zhou Ji approached his ear with a strange expression and said something in his ear, which caused Si Teng Hanyang to break his skills in an instant, his eyes were cold, and he returned him with an extremely dangerous smile.

Not only Zhao Pan'er, but also everyone present had never seen such a 'tea cake'. Shopkeeper Hu frowned slightly, thinking that the tea set 'Sancai Bowl' in Tongfu Tea House came from Sichuan and Shu in the southwest, and thought that there was a border tribe in Nanzhou. The loose tea, the slightly wrinkled brows stretched out, and the expression was even more disdainful.
