Chapter 72
Zheng Liwan has increased the production of wine to 150 jars per day, but it is still not enough to sell!
Cui Mingan's face was swollen to the extreme.
No one listens to his repeated orders and bans now.
After tasting the high-quality wine, the heads of other aristocratic families went crazy and wanted to snap up it. This stuff is so delicious, if you don't buy it, keep it for a few jars. What if Li Hao doesn't sell it in the future?
Even the Cui family themselves, even Cui Mingan's mother and wife did not listen to Cui Mingan, let alone other people.
At the beginning, it was still secretive and sent people to snap up the purchases.
Later, they didn't even cover it up, and the Cui family in Chang'an City directly joined the hand-to-hand fight for panic buying!
Cui Mingan's prestige plummeted!
No one listens to your orders, and you have nothing to do, so who will be afraid of you in the future?
Cui Mingan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.
This time it's really a steal.
and.
Because of his face, Cui Mingan only snatched a bottle of high-quality wine, which was not enough to drink!
Cui Mingan's wine worms were hooked out after smelling the other members of the Cui family savoring the high-grade wine all day long, but he couldn't bear to snap up it.
This made Cui Mingan even angrier!
The family's boycott this time has declared a complete failure!
After hearing the news, all the Tang officials couldn't help laughing.
The family that has always been domineering actually had a day of failure, and Cui Mingan had offended Li Shimin even more, and Li Shimin had nothing to do with Cui Mingan, but he did not expect to be punished by Li Hao.
It's just that Li Hao hasn't been to the shop these few days, and hasn't come out of the mansion, but he doesn't know what he's doing.
Many ministers were very curious and asked Wei Zheng, Li Jing and others about it.
Wei Zheng, Li Jing and the others didn't know about it, so they planned to take some time to visit Li Hao's residence.
……
Li Hao Mansion.
Li Hao is revising the sketch script "Selling Abductees".
This is an excellent sketch from the previous life. Li Hao wants to replace the modern nouns in it with the nouns from the Tang Dynasty.
Let people in the Tang Dynasty also appreciate the beauty of this sketch.
In the past few days, Li Hao bought a theater, which is located in the famous place of fireworks in Chang'an City.
Also recruited a few opera singers as sketch actors.
Although this group of opera singers always involuntarily utter a few lines when they are performing sketches, which makes people feel that they are acting, but Li Hao knows that there are no professional comedians in this era, and it would be nice if someone can perform a show smoothly .
Li Hao's plan is simple and clear.
Open a theater first, and perform one or two skits. Li Hao doesn't know if anyone will accept the form of skits during the Tang Dynasty, but as long as someone likes it, they may come to Li Hao to apply for a job as an actor or write a script.
Slowly cultivate, sooner or later, Li Hao will also be able to enjoy comedy scripts written by others, and then he will have a lot of fun.
Just when Li Hao was concentrating on revising.
The servants reported that the two adults, Wei Zheng and Li Jing, had arrived.
Li Hao was writing dizzily, saw someone coming, just in time to chat and relax, so he went to the courtyard.
At the small stone table in front of the courtyard, Wei Zheng and Li Jing were sitting there talking, Li Guanying rushed over early to pour tea for her father and Wei Zheng.
Seeing Li Hao, Wei Zheng and Li Jing smiled and said:
"Mr. Li Hao, I haven't heard from you for the past few days. What are you up to?"
Li Hao smiled and said:
"I've been creating sketches for the past few days, and I haven't been out much, so please bear with me."
"Essay?" Wei Zheng and Li Jing looked at each other, "What is this? Is it a kind of essay? Mr. Li Hao is quite good at literature?"
Li Hao shook his finger, "It's a kind of play, the form is quite different, but it's all for entertainment."
Wei Zheng and Li Jing's expressions became a little embarrassed.
Singing operas has always been a low-ranking one since ancient times. Although popular opera singers are often sought after by the rich and powerful and earn a lot of money, they can't get on the stage after all.
Not to mention writing plays, except for those scholars who are extremely idle, who with an official position can write plays.
Not to mention that there are many examples of mistakes in theaters.
Wei Zheng is a straightforward person. Seeing Li Hao's appearance of not doing his job properly all the time, he really can't see it.
With Li Hao's talent and ability, he should have become the number one hero of the Tang Dynasty, and his name will last forever.
If this continues, Wei Zheng is worried that Li Hao will delay him, so Wei Zheng directly persuades:
"Mr. Li Hao, Mr. Wei has to say a few words, sir, you are wasting your talent."
"Pastimes such as theater are interesting, but they are just playthings to lose one's mind. Mister, you must not indulge in them!"
Li Hao didn't bother to explain so much to Wei Zheng, even the emperor Li Hao didn't pay much attention to him, and playthings were Li Hao's biggest ambition.
Seeing the two people approaching, Li Hao suddenly thought that these two people could become his best audience.
Wei Zheng and Li Jing, both literary and military, are famous ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and they are well-informed. With these two people helping to watch the rehearsal, the comments given should be more effective.
It's better than Li Guanying who can only laugh and laugh, and then can't give any useful comments.
Li Hao smiled and said:
"Master Wei, we will not fight today."
"Well, just so you guys are here, let's see what my newly revised script can do."
Wei Zheng and Li Jing looked even more embarrassed.
This is even more absurd.
It's fine that Li Hao likes to play, but he still has to drag them along to do their jobs.
But Li Hao pulled them, and they couldn't refuse.
Wei Zheng thought to himself, he still has to find an opportunity to criticize this play to nothing in order to save Li Hao.
With Wei Zheng's knowledge, he can completely expose the clumsiness of a certain play, which makes people feel disgusted.When Li Shimin wanted to watch a play, it was Wei Zheng who used this method to keep Li Shimin playing and finally stopped watching.
No matter how good a play is, there are bound to be various flaws, and it is difficult to be perfect.Therefore, Wei Zheng is very confident that he can lead Li Hao on the right path.
Li Hao ordered his servants to call the actors he had hired to come to the courtyard to rehearse the latest script.
Those actors and actresses were in Chang'an City, on standby at any time, and soon came to Li Hao's mansion.
In the courtyard, three actors and actresses are already in place.
Li Guanying held up a sign for "Selling Abductees", which was the name of the play.
Then the skit started.
Wei Zheng and Li Jing discovered that these three opera singers did not change their costumes, but went straight to the stage.
They were wearing only very common clothes, and they didn't wear any makeup, just like ordinary people.
This surprised Wei Zheng and Li Jing.
First of all, two actors, a man and a woman, appear on the stage. Seeing their relationship, they are husband and wife.
The male actor seemed to be a liar, with a nickname of big fool, he looked like he was very good at fooling people, he hit a pair of crutches, but because he miscalculated the market, he couldn't sell it.
The actress is the wife of a liar, and she thinks that the crook cannot sell this pair of crutches no matter what.
Then came a man on horseback.
The liar actually said that he would sell the crutches to the man on the horse.
Wei Zheng and Li Jing really felt that this liar was talking nonsense.
Riding a horse is not an easy job, and it requires a lot of thigh muscles.
Who can ride a horse, who is not a person with strong lower limbs?
The liar's wife doesn't believe it either. He has good legs, so how can you sell him a walking stick?
But the liar was full of confidence and sure, which immediately aroused the curiosity of Wei Zheng and Li Jing.
