But no matter what, the cement has been selected in several places according to what Yan Shiyue said, and it is ready to start paving the road.
As for why he had to pick several places right from the start, Yan Shiyue's answer was: "For the subsequent competition and learning."
Qu Sinian: “……???”
He really has a love-hate relationship with his master.
The dozen or so newly recruited "specially recruited officials of the Ministry of Commerce" were sent out before they could even get their feet on the ground. Of course, there were also some people originally selected by the Ministry of Revenue.
To be honest, at this time, Lord Qu was very conflicted.
For Qu Sinian, if he wanted to use someone in such an important position, he had to observe him quietly, test him with words, and draw a picture of this person in his mind as accurate as a hair's breadth, from his character to his ability, and only then could he send him out for use.
But now, before the name and the person are even matched, it is released for use? ? Is this really okay?
His master, who was pregnant with a big belly, laughed at him while eating: "Why are you worried? Because you are unsure, so you think the situation is uncontrollable, that's why you are worried! I'm telling you, you are destined to worry, and you and Yan Shirui are simply brothers in distress!"
Qu Sinian said: "You didn't tell me anything! Of course I have no idea!"
...
...
Yan Shiyue smiled and said, "Of course I told you when I needed to, now you just need to do it!"
In fact, the things these people are sent down to do are very simple.
That is, after the cement road is completely dry, we will find a suitable excuse based on local conditions and invite some wealthy people to test drive the car.
For example, something like the top ten famous scholars... The reason must be very high-sounding, so that the invited people feel that they are worthy and proud of themselves. Then, after testing the car, use the same reason to give the Yuwen car to them.
It would be best if this gift had a sense of honor, so that they would feel it would be a shame if the car was not shown off.
It's that simple.
Although Qu Sinian wanted to roar: How could it be so simple!!
But we still followed her instructions and let everyone out.
At the same time, the Liyuan's new play "Glass Vase" was completed and she was invited to audition. Yan Shiyue sent someone to ask Emperor Ming Yan if he wanted to see it, and he refused without hesitation.
She asked Qu Sinian: "Who among these people in the court likes to watch the show?"
Qu Sinian sneered: "Jin Heqiao, you have a strong addiction to acting."
Yan Shiyue said "oh" and was thinking about whether she should go to visit him. But when she thought about how he was just a minor official without a title, and looked at Qu Sinian's expression, she patted his shoulder and said, "Sinian?"
Qu Sinian hummed and lowered his eyes, thinking that she would comfort him.
As a result, she said to him solemnly: "Follow my order, go and humiliate him! Say whatever you want to say! Ask for some interest first!"
Qu Sinian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He is actually not a person who likes to take advantage of others. This is meaningless to him.
After leaving her place, he suddenly shed a few tears, but inexplicably wanted to laugh... He squatted under her porch for a while, covering his face with his hands.
He thought Yan Shiyue was a truly amazing person.
He has no rules in his behavior, but for some reason, he can make people willingly follow him until death.
It was as if he was really much busier and more worried these days than in Jixian Hall, and he was busy with things he was not good at, which made him really tired. And if he guessed correctly, Emperor Ming Yan meant that he should follow Yan Shiyue, wherever she went, he would go.
In other words, if Yan Shiyue leaves the Ministry of Revenue one day, everything he does now will be to prepare wedding clothes for others.
But although I had a clear idea in my mind, once I got there, I felt like there was a little person inside my body, with a smile on its face and full of energy, running forward desperately, completely out of control.
This is really an extremely novel experience, and I can’t explain why.
Qu Sinian went to find Jin Hejiao.
As soon as they met, Jin Heqiao said in a sarcastic tone: "Master Qu has lost weight recently. Could it be that the Prime Minister's family doesn't provide meals?"
Qu Sinian was in a delicate mood and didn't even bother to argue. He said directly, "Master Jin, the Prime Minister asked someone to arrange a play and wanted people to find out the mistakes. I heard that you like to listen to plays, so I asked you to invite a few people to help listen."
Jin Heqiao was stunned: "What do you mean?"
"That's what I mean." Qu Sinian said, "Tomorrow afternoon, at the Meng Family Teahouse. Please don't delay, Master Jin!"
He bowed and left.
Then Yan Shiyue informed the Fifth Prince and borrowed the people from the Pear Garden.
She went there herself.
Although she didn't like listening to opera very much, there was no other entertainment these days.
So she booked the entire upstairs and called Xu Wenqu, Qu Sinian, her new younger brother Shen Shuanglou, Ren Zenan, and the Fifth Prince, and they all sat in the private room.
Jin Hejiao and his men came over to greet him. After they sat down, someone brought them writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones, and said, "The Prime Minister said that you are all experts. Please say something after listening to me. Forget about the praises, which are useless. Thank you for your help, sirs."
Now, few people in the court didn’t know Yan Shiyue’s temper, and they all agreed.
At the same time, the waiter downstairs also walked around and said with a smile: "We are going to sing a new play today. If anyone can tell the whole story, the tea money will be free." Naturally, the tea drinkers downstairs responded loudly.
The story of "The Glass Vase" is relatively simple, and after all, the Liyuan Opera is the imperial opera troupe in the palace, so the level is top-notch, and cheers and applause can be heard from time to time.
While Yan Shiyue was eating snacks, he saw Xu Wenqu and Qu Sinian, both of whom were tapping the rhythm on the table, their eyes slightly closed, listening very attentively. Ren Zenan was still a little reserved, and obviously didn't like listening to the opera very much, as he looked around.
Shen Shuanglou was different, he listened very carefully, his mouth kept moving, as if he was singing along.
Instead, the Fifth Prince turned to her and asked, "Are you going to ask all the opera troupes in the world to learn to sing?"
"I have this plan," Yan Shiyue said, "First, let all the opera troupes in the capital learn it. Don't do it deliberately, just let it go naturally."
The fifth prince smiled and said, "I feel like you use every possible method to do everything you can."
"Of course!" She said, "Of course we should make full use of the resources we have at hand. Otherwise, what should we do? If we don't use them, will we let them sit in the corner and collect dust?"
The fifth prince nodded with a smile: "Yes."
He really envied her. She knew how to use it, was able to use it, and dared to use it... In this regard, not to mention him and the Fourth Prince, even the Crown Prince was not as carefree as her.
This is what she said, being free from desires means being strong!
As the whole show went on, more and more people gathered. The seats were taken long ago, so people who came later stood to listen and cheered from time to time. It can be said that the show became an instant hit.
Even so, each of these adults pointed out one or two minor flaws, including Xu Wenqu and several others. They planned to ask them to correct them and then perform the performance again five days later. At that time, they would invite the owners of all the opera troupes in the capital to come and listen, and after they had listened, they would give them the play scripts.
At the same time, Yan Shiyue also sent people to follow these people. If there were those who left the teahouse and hummed the songs here, they would be paid a fee. This money would be regarded as a thank you gift from the Ministry of Revenue to the Pear Garden, and would be added to the publicity expenses of the Ministry of Commerce to be used for rewarding them according to their merits.
Qu Sinian expressed doubt: "Does our company have advertising expenses?"
