Chapter 135

Cheng Yeran called everyone in the family and asked them to choose together. This boy band was not just for him, so it would be safer if more people liked it.
Liu Ya hates men and says she doesn't like any of them. When Lin Yu came, the young general also came with him. He asked Lin Yu: "Do you think they are good-looking? They can't survive in the barracks for a month. They are so skinny. Although the one looks stronger, he is not good enough."
Lin Yu: “…”
Yuanbao can now think with his brother's mind. Before he could speak, the wild dog stood in front of him, grinning, and he stopped talking.
Cheng Yeran finally sighed helplessly. No one could help, so he chose by himself. "The one with wheat-colored skin and strong muscles stays, and the cute brother with big eyes stays, and the sunny boy stays. The others are okay-looking, but have no special features, so they can be used as foils."
When the human trafficker saw him pick nine people in one breath, he couldn't stop smiling. But when he saw Cheng Yeran called so many people to help pick, he was confused. What on earth was Cheng Yeran going to do by buying these handsome men?
However, it is not his business to ask what the owner wants to do. He is tight-lipped and does not like to discuss gossip, so he can do such a big business.
Cheng Yeran paid the money very happily. Then he looked at them and found that they could not even stand straight, their clothes were dirty, their hair was greasy, their hands were dirty, but their faces were clean. It must be that the human traffickers knew that he wanted to see their faces and washed them specially.
They were all very timid. Some were local and some were from other places. The local ones had problems at home and had to sell themselves. The outsiders had natural disasters in their villages and had no choice but to run to the capital to find a way to make a living. In the end, they found that they could not survive except by selling themselves.
Some were abducted and sold since childhood and have been sold several times.
They were beaten several times by the human traffickers in order to subdue them and to temper them.
They didn't know what Cheng Yeran wanted them to do. They heard that some of the owners of wealthy families were perverted and liked to play with handsome boys.
They were a little scared when they saw that human traffickers specifically picked out handsome boys.
But they have no right to resist, and no one cares about them even if they are killed. The moment they are sold, they are no longer human beings, but a piece of commodity.
Cheng Yeran looked at them tremblingly and knew they couldn't go on stage in this state.
Besides, she is not a child anymore, so there is no way to train her from childhood, but this is the only way to find a handsome man.
"You must be hungry. Eat something first, and we'll talk later." Shen Yuntang asked the servants to take them away, "Give them some food, take a bath and change clothes."
When they heard that there was food to eat, their eyes lit up and they didn't care about anything else. They followed the servants to a yard. It was summer now, and the servants liked to set up a table in the yard for their meals.
Their family has always been managed by Shen Yuntang's two maids. The two maids ordered several people to go to the kitchen, "Boil water, serve food, no one should be idle. Also, bring nine sets of clothes first, and we will change them for them later."
The nine boys saw that the two sisters were particularly strict and everyone in the family was afraid of them, so they also became reserved.
Soon the food was served on the table. The food for their servants was also good. There were meat dishes every day, as well as white flour buns, and sometimes rice.

Limited good articles, all in
The servants in their family lived a happy life every day. In addition, the two strict maids always threatened them, saying that if someone did not do a good job, they would tell Shen Yuntang to sell the person and get a new one.
The servants didn't want to lose such a good life, so they all performed their jobs obediently. Originally, their work was not much, just sweeping the floor and cleaning the house and yard. Everyone had his own division of labor, and if the work was divided, one person wouldn't be able to do much.
"I didn't have time to make it for you, so I'll heat up the leftovers from lunch for you." Seeing them swallowing their saliva at the food on the table but not daring to eat, the maid nodded with satisfaction, "Eat."
A few people rushed forward like hungry dogs hearing the command, not even bothering to use chopsticks, and wolfed down the food with their hands.
It was called leftover food, but it was actually steamed buns with meat and vegetables. For them who couldn’t get enough food every day, it was too rich. One boy even burped and said, “After eating this meal, it’s worth dying for!”
They finished their meal, took a shower, changed their clothes, and looked quite normal.
They saw that the clothes they were wearing were the same as those of the servants. Did they have to stay here and be servants in the future?
After having that meal just now, they wanted to stay here as servants for the rest of their lives.
Shen Yuntang asked Cheng Yeran worriedly, "They are not going to be able to perform on stage like this. They don't have the temperament. Will anyone pay for them?"
"Temperament can be cultivated." Cheng Yeran asked the servants at home to buy a yard to settle them, and then find a teacher to train their body.
Liu Ya said that he could call the two older brothers around him over. The two older brothers had received rigorous training in the military camp before, so it would be easy for them to be trained.
Cheng Yeran thought it was a good idea and said he would pay them an extra salary. He then hired an agent to take care of their food and daily life, and also invited a teacher to teach them talents.
Seeing that they were all cautious and watching other people's expressions, Cheng Yeran couldn't guarantee whether they would become arrogant, disobedient, and betray their masters after becoming famous in the future.
He went to the yard of the nine teenagers and asked them, "How do you feel about life here?"
They wanted to kneel down to Cheng Yeran. They originally thought that they would be servants in Cheng Yeran's family, but who knew that they would be arranged to live in such a big yard, three people in a room, everyone had their own bed, good clothes to wear, and meat for every meal.
Cheng Yeran told his agent to control their weight so they could only eat until they were 80% full, but that would still make them very satisfied.
They didn't have to work or be beaten every day, so they just learned to dance, sing, read and write. They felt like they had become the young masters of a wealthy family.
Cheng Yeran saw that their body shapes had indeed changed a lot, and were much straighter than when he first bought them. He nodded with satisfaction.
Cheng Yeran then told them about their future work content, "You will be performing on stage in the future, and you will also have to learn singing and dancing. If anyone can't learn well or is lazy, then leave as soon as possible."
After he finished speaking, he saw them shivering and said something very capitalist, "If you don't want to do it, there are plenty of people vying to do it."
"Got it! We will definitely do it well." They have lived hard times, and some of them have even been to the gates of hell. They will definitely try their best to keep their current life.
"Of course, there will be rewards for good work. We will pay you wages and give you holidays." Cheng Yeran looked at them with expectations in his eyes. "Okay, work hard. I hope you have learned this song when I see you next time."
Shen Yuntang recently had to make clothes for three groups, and he had to design and make the clothes, so he asked Lin Yu for help.
Recently, a sewing machine was made, and Lin Yu gave it to a maid beside him. The three of them worked overtime to make the clothes for the girl group and the boy group first.
Let's open the store first and let the girl group and boy group perform. The boy group is not ready yet and needs to be trained for a while.
On the opening day, two giant paintings were hung at the door, one on the upper floor. Not only were they huge, but there were eight people in each painting.
She is so beautiful that people who don't know her would think he is running a brothel. Cheng Yeran explained that it is just a singing and dancing performance and people cannot touch her, only watch.
The dishes are 50% off for the first three days, and there are limited edition cream cakes.
The girl group and boy group's outfits were quite novel and they looked good, so many people were attracted to them.
But they heard that the previous chefs in Jinyulou had been replaced, and they were worried that the quality of the dishes would decline.
Watching singing and dancing performances and listening to music are all meaningless. The most important thing is that the food is delicious.
And what is that cream cake? I've never heard of it, how can it be delicious?
Although diners had various concerns, the restaurant was still full on the first day and there were even queues.
Jinyulou previously belonged to the eldest prince, and was later given to Liu Ya by the emperor. Liu Ya is the cousin of Cheng Yeran's husband. The story behind this is so exciting that many people think that even if the food is not delicious, it is worth coming to see the excitement.
The performances by the girl group and the boy group were only at night, but the limited edition of thirty cream cakes were sold out.
Shen Yuntang made a small cream cake, about the same size as a cupcake. It was delicately made, and the cream melted in the mouth. The diners were originally wondering what this thing was. It looked pretty, but it tasted even better.
Originally, they ordered this cream cake because they heard that this cake was made by Mr. Cheng’s husband, so they wanted to give Mr. Cheng some face, so they ordered one.
When they heard that there were only thirty cakes, those who didn’t buy a cake at first breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that they didn’t have to waste their money.
As a result, those who bought the cakes regretted buying only one. They finished it in one or two bites. They didn't get enough and wanted to buy more. But when they asked, they found out they were sold out. They even wanted to make a reservation and come early tomorrow morning to order ten or twenty cakes.
The guy in the store said that reservations cannot be made and it is first come, first served, but you can make a reservation in advance for your birthday and order a larger one.
Many people say that they have their birthday tomorrow or in a few days, and they order a big cake now.
Those who didn't buy the cake regretted not buying one to try when they saw how popular the cake was.
In addition to the cake, other dishes were also more delicious than before. They all asked where the chef was invited from, wondering if they had invited the imperial chef from the palace.
The shop owner explained to the diners with a smile that Shen Yuntang's secret seasoning was added to each dish, and no other place could produce the same taste.
The food is delicious during the day, and the singing and dancing at night are even better. We also invited a famous team of musicians from Beijing to compose the music, which makes it look more professional.
The girl group chose lively and cute songs and dances, while the boy group chose fast-paced songs. The costumes and body movements of both groups focused on showing their full energy.
Another feature of the two songs is that their rhythm is very brainwashing. Even after diners have finished listening to the songs, the two most brainwashing lines are still echoing in their minds the next day or the day after.
Prince Jing also came to show his support tonight. Not only did he watch the singing and dancing, he also danced along, instantly becoming a little fan.
There was a sign below warning diners not to go on stage to harass the dancers. After all, this restaurant was related to Lord Cheng, so no one dared to do anything wrong.
After watching the singing and dancing, the prince changed to another private room, closed the door and enjoyed the food and wine. However, just as he took a bite of the food, the door was pushed open, and it turned out to be Liu Ya.
When he saw Liu Ya, he subconsciously covered his buttocks. He still remembered the feeling. He trembled and said, "Don't come over here!"
