Chapter 223: fight for the latter
Chapter 223 Fight for the latter
Wen Liuniang, who originally just followed Ye Anlan quietly, is very worried because of Ye Anlan's uncharacteristic behavior recently.
Some people didn't feel Wen Liuniang's anxiety at all. They seemed to see some golden opportunity, and they started to show their courtesies to Ye Anlan.
They sent her a teahouse, an opera troupe, a dancer, a storyteller, and... But whatever they thought Ye Anlan would be interested in, there was nothing they couldn't package as a gift and send it to Ye Anlan's mansion.
Although Ye Anlan had already told the guards in charge of guarding the gate that no matter who or what they sent, they had to return it intact, but Wen Liuniang was still worried day by day.
She was afraid, afraid that those all-pervasive people would really lead Ye Anlan down the wrong path.
You must know that although Ye Anlan is the leader of a rebel force, but given her age and background, no one can guarantee that she will not be fascinated by the colorful world outside.
Wen Liuniang also thought about persuading Ye Anlan, but every time she just said the beginning, Ye Anlan would smile and wave to her, "I'm doing business."
She said so, what else can Wen Liuniang do? You can't get to the bottom of it, do you have to ask Ye Anlan to say one, two, three, four?
Wen Liuniang has not forgotten that Ye Anlan is her boss in terms of identity, and she is Ye Anlan's bodyguard. She is not qualified to ask Ye Anlan to tell her everything clearly.
However, Wen Liuniang was not so polite, restrained, and measured towards others except Ye Anlan.
Gifts sent to the mansion were rejected every time without exception, which annoyed many people who had racked their brains to make money.
When they saw Ye Anlan still playing around all day long, they took it for granted that the people around Ye Anlan must be afraid that they would take advantage of this loophole, so they used this method to completely cut off their way to give gifts.
But will they be the ones who give up so easily? As opportunists, none of these people is a fuel-efficient lamp.
The mansion couldn't be sent in, so they began to do everything possible to "encounter" and be kind to Ye Anlan.
Ye Anlan went out to listen to a play, and the troupe would be bought and given to Ye Anlan.
When Ye Anlan went out to listen to books, the owner of the storytelling teahouse would hand over a post to see her.
Ye Anlan went to the bookstore to buy a storybook, and there would always be "enthusiastic" local gentry children in the bookstore, who would help her check out and pay in advance.
Ye Anlan went to discuss "business" with the little beggars. As soon as Ye Anlan left, the little beggars would receive a lot of food, money, and clothes from caring people.
Every time something like this happened, Wen Liuniang would draw out her sword with a gloomy face, frightening those who wanted to get close to Ye Anlan, and soon completely disappeared.
Except for those who give food, clothing and a small amount of money to the little beggars.
Firstly, this person didn't approach Ye Anlan at all. He took the curve to save the country, and didn't give Wen Liuniang a chance to draw his sword on the spot. Second, Ye Anlan was very happy that someone was willing to spend money to help her with publicity. Anyway, the money It was given by that person to do good deeds, and it was not given to her directly, so she could be cheeky and refuse the other party's favor.
As a public treasury, it doesn’t matter, she can only spend money according to the rules, and her private inventory is limited, so she must spend all her energy and frugality. Ye Anlan said that the little beggar can’t take this benefit for nothing. About as much as she gave them.
She bargained with Tietou, the boss of the little beggars, and finally Tietou agreed to count the income as Ye Anlan's labor remuneration for them.
Of course, on the contrary, Ye Anlan has to provide them with more job opportunities in the future, so that they, orphans who have lost their loved ones, can rely on their unremitting efforts to barely survive in this chaotic world.
Ye Anlan said, as long as you don't ask me to give you money directly, then we can still be close partners who can cooperate happily and achieve a win-win situation.
She taught the little beggars a few nursery rhymes that she had compiled on behalf of others, and let the little beggars sing them everywhere in Yanzhou.
Until this moment, Wen Liuniang realized belatedly that her girl is really doing business these days_(:з」∠)_
What she was worried about enjoying pleasure was not in the scope of her girl's consideration at all. What her girl really wanted to do was to use these things for people's entertainment to control people's hearts with lightning speed.
As Ye Anlan's personal bodyguard, Wen Liuniang certainly knew how much criticism her girl had received during this time, but the only idea she could think of was to buy a group of literati to write articles and poems to praise her girl.
This method cannot be said to be completely ineffective, but compared to the combined punches of her girl, the method she came up with is obviously clumsy, inefficient, and full of loopholes.
Following Ye Anlan back to their temporary mansion, watching Ye Anlan call Zhou Mingzhe, such and such exhortations, Wen Liuniang almost overflowed with admiration for Ye Anlan.
She lowered her head, quietly listening to Ye Anlan say to Zhou Mingzhe:
“.In this world, are there more literate people or more illiterate people?”
"Are there more people who like to chew on words and study hard, or do more people like to watch operas, listen to music, listen to books, and sing nursery rhymes?"
"Are there more people who can understand and spread their obscure articles and poems, or are there more people who can understand and understand vernacular stories, operas, songs, and nursery rhymes?"
"Is it because there are many people who are born superior and live a life of fine clothes and fine clothes, but still use the banner of rules, etiquette, and righteousness to fight for more interests of their own class, or is it because they are oppressed and full of heart?" How do you and your family have enough food and clothing to live a peaceful life?"
Zhou Mingzhe didn't need to answer these questions, because the three people present actually had exactly the same answer in their hearts.
But it was precisely because of this that Ye Anlan's direct attack on the vital points was even more exciting.
She tapped her index finger on the table in the eyes of Zhou Mingzhe and Wen Liuniang, who seemed to have opened the door to a new world, "What we want to fight for is the latter."
Zhou Mingzhe stood up solemnly, and bowed to Ye Anlan to the end, "I understand what you mean, and I will let people do it."
Ye Anlan nodded, "Don't make a loss-making business. If this entertainment is done well, the money you can earn is no less than that of mine mining."
Zhou Mingzhe raised his head in surprise, "This" how to make money?
Ye Anlan rubbed the center of her brows—it's not good for a young man with no social experience, she has to mention everything in order to suddenly understand.
