Chapter 101 We were wrong

"20 yuan, can't it be more?"

I, Shao Yuan, asked the on-site director without giving up.

The on-site director immediately shook his head, "Also, guests are not allowed to use their own money."

"That's fine, then I can borrow money, right?"

I, Shao Yuan, immediately extended my left hand towards the cameraman Ding Lanlan in front of me and said bluntly, "Come on, brother, let me lend you a few tens of thousands of yuan and I'll treat you to a big meal when I get back."

Who knew, Ding Lanlan just shook the camera.

Zhen Shao Yuan's eyes widened. "No way, Lanlan, you're going too far. I remember you brought money with you when you went out. If not tens of thousands, there must be at least a thousand yuan."

Ding Lanlan still shook the camera.

Yu Shan on the side spoke up, "Your Majesty, don't ask anymore. Director Liu said you can't borrow money from us. If you want money, you can only earn it yourself."

The on-site director coughed twice and stifled a laugh. "Listen carefully, guests! If you need money, you need to earn it yourselves. Don't even think about borrowing money from our staff. Even from friends."

When saying this, the director also looked at Shao Yuan intentionally.

This is obviously meant for me, Shao Yuan.

"No, I remember this was a sweet trip, right? When did it become a working trip? You told me when you let me in that this was a very relaxing and enjoyable trip."

I, Shao Yuan, looked shocked as if I had been tricked.

"That's right, that's what they told us at the beginning. I didn't expect that they would trick us into coming here to work."

Lin Tianxing also joined in the complaints.

"We are the same. I thought we were just here to travel. I didn't expect that we were here to work."

Gong Chengnan couldn't help but complain.

Cai Jiabao also curled his lips and raised his hand, saying, "I protest too. This is too much."

Unexpectedly, the director said, "That's not too much. Without going through hardships and difficulties, how can you show how difficult love is? Think about it, after a hard day's work, you finally make some money. Then you give all the money you earn to your partner as a surprise gift. Isn't that romantic?"

Zhen Shao Yuan shook his head disrespectfully, "I don't find it romantic."

Lin Tianxing and the other two also shook their heads in agreement.

"I think it's quite romantic. You guys... Hey, wait for us."

The on-site director hadn't finished speaking when he found that Shao Yuan and the other three ignored him and just turned around and left.

The four of them were walking on the streets in the center of K City, and many people recognized them.

"Ah, it's His Majesty and the others."

"I heard they came to K City to record a show, but I didn't expect it to be true."

"We're so lucky. I didn't expect them to come to our place to record a show."

"No, I have to tell my bestie right away."

"Your Majesty, King Lin, I wonder if I can ask them for their autographs. And Cai Jiabao and Gong Chengnan, they're both handsome men with long legs. They're so pleasing to the eyes."

"Your Majesty, look this way."

…

I, Shao Yuan, heard someone calling me and turned my head to look.

I saw many people shouting excitedly.

He raised his hand and waved at them.

It immediately caused a series of screams.

Instantly the crowd became excited.

The security personnel formed a large circle to prevent passersby from approaching Zhen Shao Yuan and others.

Lin Tianxing looked at the group of young people shouting "I am Shao Yuan" and smiled.

I sigh that Shao Yuan really has so many fans.

The fans in the live broadcast room were envious when they saw so many people meeting Zhen Shao Yuan on the street.

Some people couldn't help it and had already booked plane tickets to K City.

I plan to go to K City tomorrow to meet Shao Yuan and the others.

After I, Shao Yuan, simply greeted them, I didn't pay any more attention to those fans.

After all, we are still filming the show.

He then discussed with Lin Tianxing and the others about working and making money.

"They really want us to work, and they won't even recommend any jobs to us. So what should we do now?"

Gong Chengnan held the envelope containing 20 yuan in his hand with a helpless look on his face.

"That's right, what can I do with this 20 yuan?"

Cai Jiabao was also helpless.

If he had known this show was so bad, he would have...

No, even if he had known that the show was so awful, he would not have come because he had no money to pay the penalty.

"What are you afraid of? Don't we have the Great God here?"

I, Shao Yuan, stuck out my lips towards Lin Tianxing.

"Me?" Lin Tianxing pointed at himself. "What do you mean?"

I, Shao Yuan, stopped and said to Lin Tianxing, "Brother Lin, I remember you can play the guitar, right?"

"Yes, so what?" Lin Tianxing nodded, not knowing what Shao Yuan was up to.

"So, Brother Lin, whether we eat or drink porridge depends on you."

I, Shao Yuan, pointed to a guitar shop in front and grinned at Lin Tianxing.

Lin Tianxing understood what he meant instantly.

"You want me to perform on the streets?"

"Yeah, look, in our current situation, we can't get a part-time job. The wages for part-time jobs aren't high. Buying a decent gift is definitely out of the question."

"But street performance is different. I'm not bragging, but look at the four of us. If we stand there, people would think we're a superstar group. If we don't perform, we'd be doing a disservice to our reputation!"

I, Shao Yuan, am very confident about my appearance.

Not humble at all.

Although Lin Tianxing and the other three are not as good as him, they are all handsome guys.

If we don’t show their faces, it would really be a disservice to their looks.

Lin Tianxing said: "I can play the guitar, so what skills do you sell?"

Unexpectedly, Zhen, Shao Yuan and the other two said in unison: "We will be responsible for collecting the money."

Ten minutes later.

We, Shao Yuan and the other two, with those four faces and all our wealth, have 80 yuan in Han currency.

Successfully rented the owner's private guitar from the guitar shop.

The shop owner was also generous enough to lend his own microphone and audio equipment to Shao Yuan and the others.

Then, the four of them set up a stall right in front of the guitar store and began their performing career.

Cai Jiabao and Gong Chengnan have never tried performing for money.

So I won’t shout.

I, Shao Yuan, had no choice but to play the role of shouting.

He coughed twice and cleared his throat.

After trying the microphone.

Then he started shouting at the crowd of onlookers.

"Come on, come on, handsome men and beautiful women, don't miss it if you pass by, you have seen it."

"Today is our first time in your precious place, and we're here to perform and earn a living. I hope all the handsome men and beautiful women will be so kind as to order some songs. One song is never too few, and ten songs are never too many."

"Don't buy 998, don't buy 688, now it's only 9.9 yuan. For 9.9 yuan, you won't be cheated or hurt. Instead, you can buy a song played and sung by our King Lin himself, performed with passion just for you. Are you tempted? If so, act now."

When the onlookers heard "I, Shao Yuan" shouting, some of them actually took action.

"9.9 yuan? Just to order a song? Your Majesty, I'm not well-educated, so please don't lie to me."

I, Shao Yuan, looked at the person who spoke.

He was a young man in his twenties.

I, Shao Yuan, ran over immediately.

"Handsome guy, there are so many people watching here, how could I possibly cheat you? How about it, 9.9 yuan, fair to everyone. Handsome guy, do you want to sing a song?"

"Okay, let's sing 'Same Moon' then. I'm a fan of King Lin and I like his version of 'Same Moon' the most."

"Okay, that's a total of 9.9 yuan."

I, Shao Yuan, immediately shouted to Cai Jiabao, "Mr. Cai, why are you still standing there? Come over here and collect the money."

"Oh, here it comes."

Cai Jiabao was shocked by Shao Yuan's skillful stall operation.

Why does it seem like I, Shao Yuan, am so familiar with this stall business?

The words came out of his mouth without any embarrassment or discomfort of setting up a stall.

On the contrary, he and Gong Chengnan were standing aside, feeling uncomfortable and very restrained.

As soon as I heard Shao Yuan say to collect payment, I immediately ran over and opened the payment code.

The young man paid 9.9 yuan very readily.

After successfully collecting the payment, I, Shao Yuan, immediately asked the security to let this distinguished guest in.

Let him listen to his idol singing for him up close.

The young man was so happy to hear that he could get close to his idol that he was at a loss as to what to do.

Lin Tianxing noticed his nervousness and said with a smile, "Don't be nervous. What's your name?"

"My name is Wang An," the young man said excitedly, "Lord Lin, I'm your die-hard fan. I have every one of your songs in my collection. This 'Same Moon' is my favorite."

"Okay, then this 'Same Moon' is for our Wang An."

Lin Tianxing began to pluck the guitar strings.

Beautiful music began to play.

Accompanied by Lin Tianxing's unique, slightly hoarse voice.

It's simply a pleasure.

I, Shao Yuan, looked at Lin Tianxing who was singing and playing the guitar, took out my mobile phone and took a look at the number of people online in the live broadcast room.

It was found that the number of online users had soared from more than 300 to more than 5 million.

Looking at the comments again, I found that many people came to listen to King Lin sing.

Well, that's a good sign.

However, we still have to keep working hard.

The singing and the sound of guitar immediately attracted the ears of many people on the street.

Many people who are familiar with Lin Tianxing knew it was his voice as soon as they heard it.

Plus, Han people love to join in the fun.

Seeing that group of people gathered together, they all went up curiously to ask what was going on.

As soon as they heard that a celebrity was coming here to record a show and perform street singing, the news spread quickly.

In an instant, the surrounding area was blocked.

Fortunately, the area here is wide, otherwise the road would be blocked.

Fortunately, the program team anticipated this situation and invited a large group of security personnel to maintain order.

Soon, the song was finished.

After singing, Lin Tianxing stood up and hugged his fan Wang An.

Then I took a photo with him.

When the onlookers saw this, they were not only able to have Lin Tianxing sing for them, but also to hug and take photos with him.

So exciting.

"I want some, I want some."

"I want to order a song too."

"9.9 yuan, right? I want some too."

…

Suddenly, the three of us, Shao Yuan, received so much money that we were overwhelmed.

The scene immediately became like Lin Tianxing's personal concert.

Even when Lin Tianxing sang some classic songs, it caused a chorus.

The scene was extremely lively.

After Lin Tianxing sang seven or eight songs, it was soon the turn of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old beautiful girl to request a song.

After paying, the beautiful girl did not order any songs from Lin Tianxing.

Instead, he said to Shao Yuan: "Your Majesty, can you change the person you are requesting songs for?"

"Change? Who do you want to change?"

I, Shao Yuan, did not expect that someone would actually make such a request.

"you."

The beautiful girl pointed at me, Shao Yuan.

Zhen Shao Yuan pointed at himself in surprise, "Me? Little beauty, are you sure?"

"Yes, Your Majesty. I want to hear you sing for me. Don't you know how to sing the song I just mentioned?"

"I can."

The song requested by the beautiful girl is one of the most popular Chinese-style songs recently.

I, Shao Yuan, quite like it and can sing it too.

"It's enough if you can sing. Then let your Majesty sing."

The little beauty is staring at me, Shao Yuan.

"No."

I, Shao Yuan, took a step back suddenly, as if facing a powerful enemy.

"Little beauty, I'm seriously advising you to choose Brother Lin instead of me. Brother Lin sings for money, and I sing for my life!"

Yu Shan and Ding Lanlan on the side covered their mouths and laughed.

I didn't expect that Your Majesty is so self-aware.

However, the beautiful girl just doesn't believe it!

"I don't believe you. I want to hear you sing. You can't go back on your word. I agreed to order a song for 9.9 yuan, and I've already paid."

The beautiful girl held up her cell phone, looking like she had evidence.

"No, I really..."

I, Shao Yuan, haven’t finished speaking yet.

The crowd of onlookers began to make a noise.

"One song, one song..."

The fans in the live broadcast room saw that Shao Yuan rarely looked so cowardly, and they all started to cheer.

The message "Let's have another song" was all over the screen.

Liu Ying saw the activity in the live broadcast room and the increasing number of online users.

Finally, a smile appeared on his face.

Street performance is a big selling point.

I, Shao Yuan, held the microphone and made a gesture of surrender.

"Okay, okay, I'll sing. I can sing, okay?"

"But my singing is really bad. Are you sure you want to listen?"

I, Shao Yuan, gave them a final shot of prevention.

As a result, a large group of people said in unison: "Sure."

"No regrets?"

“No regrets.”

The whole group of people were laughing and having a great time watching the fun.

"Okay, Your Majesty, just sing quickly. I will never regret it." The beautiful girl urged schemingly.

"OK."

I, Shao Yuan, nodded and said, "Don't ask me for anything later."

Yu Shan and Ding Lanlan looked at each other, and Yu Shan took out the tissue in tacit understanding.

Then he tore open the tissue and stuffed it into Ding Lanlan's ears.

Then Yu Shan also plugged his ears.

This scene was captured by the cameramen Lin Tianxing and Cai Jiabao who were standing nearby.

There's even a close-up.

Everyone in the live broadcast room was stunned when they saw this scene.

"I remember that these two seemed to be friends of His Majesty?"

"I think he's a bad friend. Your Majesty, is it necessary to be so exaggerated when singing?"

"I remember His Majesty said that they were college roommates and they still live together now. So, they should know His Majesty very well. They did this, brothers, I have a bad feeling in my heart."

"It's over. I have a bad feeling in my heart."

…

Not only did the people in the live broadcast room feel something was wrong, but the onlookers also had a bad feeling after seeing Yu Shan and Ding Lanlan's actions.

The next moment, they finally understood why Yu Shan and Ding Lanlan did this.

I, Shao Yuan, nodded towards Lin Tianxing.

Lin Tianxing immediately plucked the guitar strings, and beautiful music sounded.

I, Shao Yuan, raised the microphone.

A gentle breeze brushed his cheeks, ruffling the strands of hair on his forehead.

His smooth forehead was revealed.

The sunlight shone on him, and I, Shao Yuan, seemed to be filtered in an instant.

It's so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it.

In such a beautiful scene, I, Shao Yuan, opened my mouth.

Next second.

The song is so tone-deaf that even if it goes to the ends of the earth it cannot be corrected. The song that can send people away comes from the mouth of me, Shao Yuan.

It went straight into everyone's ears through the microphone.

In an instant, the beautiful picture was shattered, like glass, into pieces.

"I travel the world alone with my sword, and yesterday's glory has turned to ashes..."

I, Shao Yuan, sang so passionately and seriously.

However, every word and every tone he sang was not on the right track.

Such a beautiful Han-style song was turned into a magical sound that could send people away by him.

Moreover, it is a magical sound that can penetrate the eardrum and reach the soul.

The people around felt like their souls were about to leave their bodies when they heard it.

After hearing this, the people in the live broadcast room also felt their scalps tingling.

Lin Tianxing was so shocked that he forgot to play the guitar and stared at Zhen Shao Yuan in a daze.

"Ah... yesterday's Fenghua, it was me..."

Suddenly, I, Shao Yuan, opened my throat and sang a high note.

It instantly brought everyone back to their senses.

"Ahhhhh, oh my god, that's so hard. It's so hard."

"Oh my god, how come I never thought this song would be so bad before?"

"It's over. After listening to the song Your Majesty sang, I don't want to listen to it again."

"It's horrible! I finally understand why His Majesty said just now that his singing is fatal. If he keeps singing like this, I'm going to lose my soul."

…

The beautiful girl standing in front of me, Shao Yuan, who had just vowed that she would not regret it, is the closest to me, Shao Yuan.

I heard from close range that I was being attacked by Shao Yuan's terrifying voice that sounded like a ghost howling and chanting a spell.

The little beauty collapsed instantly.

She quickly covered her ears and begged for mercy loudly.

"Stop singing, stop singing, Your Majesty. I beg you, I was wrong, I regret it. Please spare my life. I'm only sixteen years old and I haven't been in a relationship yet. Please spare me."

The onlookers also begged for mercy.

"Yeah, stop singing. We were wrong. We apologize."

"I regret it. I am guilty. I beg for mercy. Your Majesty, please spare my ears. Please."

"Stop singing, Your Majesty. We are wrong."

"Please stop singing, Your Majesty, and spare our lives."

…

Seeing those people begging for mercy, Yu Shan and Ding Lanlan couldn't stop laughing.

See, luckily they had the foresight.

Your Majesty had clearly warned them just now.

They're courting death.

It’s not easy to stop the two of them.

Now you know how powerful His Majesty's magic voice is.

After a while of attacking, Zhen Shao Yuan finally stopped his magic sound attack after hearing those people begging for mercy.

Seeing so many people fall under his magic sound attack, he still felt a little unsatisfied.

I haven't sung in a long time.

Once I opened my mouth, I almost couldn't stop.

Seeing that Zhen Shao Yuan finally stopped, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Including this little beauty in front of me, Shao Yuan.

"Well, do you want me to sing now?"

I, Shao Yuan, asked the beautiful girl in front of him with a smile.

The beautiful girl waved her hands quickly.

"No, no, never again."

Zhen Shao Yuan saw her frightened look and shrugged, "See, I just told you that I can sing to death, but you just didn't believe it. You insisted that I sing."

The beautiful girl smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect that Your Majesty would be so honest! If you say you want to kill me, then there really is no water in your words."

"I'm such an honest person, how could I possibly say something that's not true? Everyone knows I'm honest, right?"

I, Shao Yuan, looked towards the camera.

The fans in the live broadcast room echoed.

"Yes, yes, honest, very honest."

"I've never met such an honest person."

"It's so honest (crying), so honest that I was moved to tears."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, we will never doubt your words again. This is a profound lesson, and once is enough."

All the audience in the live broadcast room felt that Shao Yuan's magic voice was so honest that it could take away souls.

Not to mention the audience at the scene.

After that, no one dared to ask Shao Yuan to order songs anymore.

Even if they chose Cai Jiabao and Gong Chengnan, they would not dare to choose me, Shao Yuan.

Cai Jiabao and Gong Chengnan are not very good at singing either.

But with the presence of "Zhu Yu" Shao Yuan in front, everyone thought that the two of them sang quite well.

In addition to paying money to request songs, many onlookers also gave bounties.

The black backpack containing the guitar was filled with a bunch of Chinese currency of varying amounts.

Singing is very tiring for your voice.

Seeing how hard the three of them were working, I, Shao Yuan, specially asked Yu Shan to help buy a box of water.

Soon, the time came to half past twelve.

Not only Lin Tianxing, but also Cai Jiabao and Gong Chengnan had their voices hoarse from singing.

And I, Shao Yuan, was so busy collecting money that my phone battery was almost half gone.

Finally, the guitar and audio microphone equipment were returned to the owner of the guitar shop.

After expressing their gratitude, a few people ended their morning money-making journey.

"Two thousand seven, two thousand eight, two thousand nine..."

I, Shao Yuan, counted the cash in my hand, which was the tips from the audience, plus the money I earned from singing.

"Excluding the money we spent on renting guitar equipment, we made a total of 3,150 yuan."

This amount was somewhat beyond my expectations.

It was also beyond the expectations of Lin Tianxing and others.

"so much?"

Cai Jiabao was surprised and said, "I thought we could only make a few hundred yuan at most in this morning."

About three thousand yuan, which is just the price of Cai Jiabao's shirt.

If it were the previous Cai Jiabao, he would not even look at it.

However, since participating in this program, he suddenly has three thousand yuan, which is a huge sum of money.

Especially compared with the 20 yuan in the envelope.

"Yeah. I didn't expect it to be so much." Gong Chengnan didn't agree with Zhen Shaoyuan's price of 9.9 yuan at first.

But now it seems that I, Shao Yuan, was right.

Shao Yuan said, "The money I make from singing isn't that much. The bulk of it comes from tips from the audience. I have to thank the three of you for your great voices. Especially Brother Lin, you're responsible for most of the money I made today."

Lin Tianxing shook his head, "No, you are the one who deserves the most credit. If you hadn't suggested that we perform and borrowed the equipment from the boss, we wouldn't have made so much money."

"Yes, Your Majesty, the one who made the greatest contribution here is not us, but you." Cai Jiabao also agreed with Lin Tianxing's statement.

"Without His Majesty, we'd probably just be distributing flyers today." Gong Chengnan smiled bitterly, "We might not even get a turn to distribute flyers."

"You guys are making me feel embarrassed."

I, Shao Yuan, did not expect these three people to be so polite.

"What's there to be embarrassed about? Let's split the three thousand yuan equally. This way everyone will have enough money to buy gifts. What do you think?" Lin Tianxing made a suggestion.

"I agree." Cai Jiabao raised his hand.

"I agree too." Gong Chengnan felt that he had already gained an advantage, so of course he couldn't object.

Seeing that the three of them agreed, I, Shao Yuan, could only shamelessly say, "Then I won't be polite."

"Why are you being so polite? This is money you earned. We're the ones taking advantage." Lin Tianxing unscrewed the bottle cap, drank the last sip of water in his hand, and said, "It's getting late. Shouldn't we find a place to eat?"

Cai Jiabao touched his deflated stomach and said, "It's time to eat. I'm starving."

"Then let's find a place to eat, but don't find something too expensive. We can't afford it." Gong Chengnan originally planned to bring two snacks of different flavors back to his wife.

Now that I have calculated the money I have earned, I find that I can only take one share at most.

After all, a serving of that dim sum costs several hundred yuan.

I, Shao Yuan, rolled my eyes and said to the three of them, "I know a place where you can eat and drink for free. Are you interested in going with me?"

"There is such a good place?" Lin Tianxing felt a little unconvinced.

"Free food and drinks, there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. Your Majesty, are you kidding us?" Gong Chengnan didn't quite believe it.

Cai Jiabao didn't express his opinion, but from his eyes one could tell that he didn't believe it either.

I, Shao Yuan, spread my hands. "How could I possibly lie to you? If you don't believe me, then just follow me and take a look."

"And let me tell you, there's not only free food and drinks over there, but most importantly, there's air conditioning."

Seeing how confident Shao Yuan was, Gong Chengnan's heart was moved. "Is there really such a good place? What else can we say? Let's go quickly. I'm so hot now that I'm almost melting."

It's summer now, and even with the umbrellas outside the guitar shop, it's still unbearably hot.

Fortunately, the owner of the guitar shop was kind enough to open the door while they were performing, allowing the air-conditioned air to blow out.

They didn't sweat profusely and look embarrassed.

Now that there is no air conditioning, walking on the street under the scorching sun, it is too hot to walk just a few steps.

Of course, it would be great to find a place with food, drinks and air conditioning.

Best of all, this place is free.
