Chapter 29 second quarter

The audience was amazed, Beng Ergou and the others reported that the total was seventy or eighty yuan, which was enough to catch up with the income of one or two performances. How could Zhang Xian want to pay? Li Yi was also very surprised, and said anxiously: "Master, we can't suffer from this! Once we heard that they reported the numbers blindly!" Zhang Xian said in a low voice: "Money is a small matter, but the reputation of our magic hall is a big thing! It is better to close the door than to lose the reputation!" When Beng Ergou heard that Zhang Xian wanted to lose money, and he was able to pay such a large amount, this guy saw the money as if he was seeing his own mother, greedy for money, immediately moved his mind, and shouted: "That's good! The shop owner wants to pay , we are not polite, then you pay for it!"

All the hooligans are people who are open-eyed when they see money, and they all think why they didn't make up a little more just now, and they have heard that the two dogs have spoken, so if they don't take it for nothing.So all the hooligans agreed in unison. Zhang Xian said loudly again: "For customers who want to get a refund, take the ticket stub and go to Boss Li, and we will compensate you twice. If you don't want to get a refund, you can also exchange it for a ticket from another venue, and come back at another day. Yes I can't help everyone, I'm really sorry!"

The audience in the audience coaxed and sighed. The few who were about to leave just now did not want to stay here anymore, and rushed to Li Fengren's side, holding up the ticket stubs, shouting for refund and refund. Hearing what Zhang Xian had said, Li Fengren had no choice but to greet the crowd repeatedly, shouting: "Please come here for refunds, please come here!" and led the crowd away. There were still some people who wanted to wait a little longer and continue to watch Zhang Xian's magic tricks. Seeing so many people leaving their seats, they had no interest in watching magic tricks for a long time, and they didn't want to wait any longer. They sighed extremely regretfully and stood up. Leave your seat.

When everyone was leaving the venue, Li Jiao rushed over with five or six policemen. It turned out that Li Jiao had already run out to call the police when she saw someone was making trouble, and finally came back at this time. A few policemen rushed in listlessly, and Cao Qian scolded loudly: "You trash! Why are you here at this time?" When the police saw that Cao Qian was there, they cheered up, stood at attention, saluted, and surrounded him. Li Jiao rushed to Cao Qian's side quickly, nodded at Cao Qian, and smiled slightly.This smile made Cao Qiannong's heart elated, and he wanted to rush forward to kiss Li Jiao, but because of the crowds here, he tried his best to suppress these thoughts.

Teng Ergou was secretly happy to see Zhang Xian's compensation for messing up Zhang Xian's scene, but seeing so many policemen here, and he was still Captain Cao's subordinate, he couldn't help feeling guilty, in case Zhang Xian If you follow the same example as them, and your words don't count, then you may not be able to get any benefits.Beng Ergou kept regretting, why didn't he take the money first, I'm afraid Zhang Xian did it on purpose, to get rid of irrelevant people, and then slowly clean up the mess. No matter how much Beng Ergou was a jerk, seeing that he was the only one left and surrounded by the police, his face was a little pale, and his expression was a little flustered.The other hooligans were even more impatient, their eyes wandering, looking at each other.

Cao Qian could see it clearly, laughed loudly, and cursed: "Yo! Beng Ergou, why are you panicking? You people who lost money, why do I see you all so familiar? And I think you all know each other , What a coincidence, thieves only steal people who know each other? Your mother, Bian Ergou, you still want to deny it? Do you dare to say that you are not here to make trouble? " Beng Ergou knew that he was at a disadvantage, and scolded Zhang Xian thousands of times in his heart, so he had to say to Cao Qian with a playful smile: "Captain Cao, I really lost money. Boss Zhang on the stage just said that I will pay for it." Give it to me. Boss Zhang recognized it, I can trust Boss Zhang, so I don’t care about it.”

Cao Qian grabbed Teng Ergou's clothes and scolded: "You fucking lion is asking for money, and being Boss Zhang will let you, a bastard, get away with it?" "Captain Cao, forget it!" Zhang Xian on the stage said loudly, and walked down from the side of the stage, talking and saying, "I did say that I would pay them money, and once I say something, it is hard to follow. Cao The captain doesn't have to embarrass them anymore. Li Yi, go and get the money, and I will pay it to the following friends who lost the money!" Although Li Yi was full of displeasure, he followed Zhang Xian's orders and hurried to the backstage to withdraw money.

Beng Ergou, Cao Qian, Li Jiao and others felt incredible when they heard what Zhang Xian said. Is this Zhang Xian stupid or smart? Zhang Xian walked up to Beng Ergou and the others steadily, cupped his fists and bowed, and said, "The shop must have done something wrong, please forgive me." Beng Ergou was a little embarrassed, and said: "There is nothing wrong, we, what, cough, I'm sorry, we lost the money, and we didn't expect... Boss Zhang, please forgive me." Li Yi came back with the money, and Zhang Xian asked again and again how much money they had lost. After giving it to them, he was still very polite with nice words.

Beng Ergou took the money, although these people were rascals, Guan Gongguan still respected them, knowing that Zhang Xian was "benevolent and righteous", he had to admire Zhang Xian, thanked him hurriedly, and ran away cleanly. Cao Qian, Li Jiao, and Li Fengren were full of doubts about Zhang Xian's move, and they all felt wronged for Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian smiled and did not answer. Beng Ergou and the others flew back to meet Huo Yajin, and talked about the matter in a hurry. In the end, everyone did not forget to say a good word for Zhang Xian.Biao Ergou even said that we have gone too far. Chen Guo is definitely not a good bird. On the contrary, Zhang Xian always repays grievances with virtue. When I see Zhang Xian next time, I am really embarrassed to embarrass him again.

Huo Yajin smacked Beng Ergou's face with a big mouth, and cursed fiercely: "Zhang Xian is a good man, but we street hooligans would rather offend ten good men like Zhang Xian than offend one Chen Guo. Such a scumbag! If our matter is messed up by Chen Guo, Chen Guo may find someone to deal with us!" Teng Ergou covered his face and agreed repeatedly, but all the hooligans were silent, thinking that what he did was such a disgusting thing as giving birth to a son without an asshole, and he panicked with shame.Of course, Huo Yajin understood what his subordinates were thinking, panting heavily, and also felt that this job was boring.

When it was almost dusk, a stone wrapped in white paper was thrown into the ticket window of Yueke Magic Hall. Li Fengren opened it up and was shocked. He hurriedly took Li Jiao to the backyard to find Zhang Xian. Zhang Xian took the blank paper, and saw that the person who dealt with you is Wangfenglou Chen Guo, Chen Guo takes black and white, we dare not offend him, so we have to do things for him.Chen Guo has made up his mind to stop your store from opening.Our side will play sloppy eyes, but we are definitely not the only group of people who will deal with you, so you should take care of yourself, and quickly think of other ways.Good luck to Boss Li and Zhang. After reading it, Zhang Xian handed it to Li Yi.Zhang Xian stood up and took a few steps slowly, and said: "I wanted to support it for another three or two days, but it seems that the performance tonight can't be done, so close the door immediately! Boss Li, please post it as soon as possible." A notice is issued, saying that the Yueke Magic Hall is temporarily closed, and when it reopens, it will be notified separately." Li Fengren's expression darkened, and he said in a miserable voice: "Is this the only way? Captain Cao can help us now. As long as we take more precautions, we can still last for a few days." Zhang Xian said: "The only thing we can do now is to avoid the limelight for now. If we can barely hold on, I am afraid that Chen Guoguo will send someone to light the fire, and the house we have worked so hard to arrange will be burned down. The loss outweighs the gain. Boss Li, if you see After leaving Chen Guo, don't get excited, just pretend that we never knew that Chen Guo was playing tricks behind our backs." Li Fengren sighed: "Why did Chen Guo kill us like this?" Zhang Xian said: "Boss Li, I have other ways to reopen the Yueke Magic Hall, and Chen Guo will never dare to harass us again." Li Fengren hurriedly asked: "What will it be?" Zhang Xian said: "I don't want to use this method easily, because it is extremely risky, but now there is no better way. Boss Li, Miss Li Jiao, Li Yi." The three quickly agreed. Zhang Xian said: "Starting today, the few of us will split up to find out some news. I want to do this..." The four gathered at the table and listened to Zhang Xian's careful instructions. Li Fengren, Li Jiao, and Li Yi sometimes had surprised and worried expressions on their faces. Apart from this, of course, there was still deep admiration in their eyes. The Yueke Magic Hall is closed, and the signboard at the front of the store has also been taken down!When the announcement was posted, some people were surprised, some sighed, some regretted it, and of course some were secretly happy.Li Fengren was in low spirits, and dealt with the final refund matter in the original ticket window. Many people came to comfort him, but Li Fengren just smiled wryly.The door of the Yueke Magic Hall was closed, the lights were dark, and there was no popularity. Chen Guomao was crying, and came here to "comfort" Li Fengren. It's a pity, a pity. In fact, the first thing to see is his "masterpiece", and the second is to play Zhang Xian's idea.When Li Fengren saw Chen Guo, he suppressed his anger and didn't say a word to Chen Guo.Chen Guo repeatedly asked Li Fengren and Zhang Xian if Mr. Zhang was there, and Li Fengren replied that Zhang Xian had left the capital and his whereabouts were unknown. Zhang Xian disappeared again. When the Yueke Magic Hall was still in operation, he lived in seclusion, and almost no one saw him walking on the street.Now the Yueke Magic Hall is closed, and there is nowhere to look for it. Chen Guo asked someone to wait and see for two days, but there was indeed no sign of Zhang Xian, so he gave up. The Tianqiao area has been talking about Zhang Xian's affairs for a few days, and there are various speculations, but the Yueke Magic Hall is closed after all, and there are only a few hundred people who have seen Zhang Xian's magic tricks. No matter how much it is said, it is useless. , while everyone was emotional, they gradually forgot. On the eighth day after Yueke Magic House closed, the largest restaurant in Beiping City, called Huixian Restaurant, was filled with lights and festoons in the evening, making it extremely lively.The entrance of Huixian Restaurant is full of traffic, and there are many distinguished guests. Almost all the famous and well-known merchants in Beiping City come here. The inspection at the entrance is extremely strict. Everyone needs to enter with an invitation card. I don’t understand. I thought it was some powerful family celebrating their birthday. Or get married. In fact, this is the pledge meeting of merchants in the capital called by Duan Shizhang. Duan Shizhang sent invitations, even if it was a Hongmen Banquet, whoever received the invitation would dare not come?Unless you don't want to hang around in the capital.Therefore, Feng Congwen and the garrison commander Zhou Jianxing in Beiping Market really had no choice but to ask Duan Shizhang to come forward. If Duan Shizhang didn't speak up, those merchants would deny it in every possible way and cry poorly, and no one would pay an extra copper coin.But they are all afraid of Duan Shizhang, so Duan Shizhang became ruthless, pointing at your nose and just saying "You are not allowed to do business in the capital", without waiting for Duan Shizhang to do business with you, the merchants who do business with you will not dare to do business with you in the first place Contacted. Butler Liu took care of it. Once the invitation was posted, Duan Shizhang's name was stamped on it, and the time and place were stated. The businessmen who were named all obediently arrived on time. Huixian Restaurant was originally owned by Duan Shizhang. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is the largest restaurant in Beiping City. Take it back and rebuild it.So with such hundreds of people coming, setting up about twenty big tables in the huge backyard of the VIP building, and setting up a stage for singing, it is more than enough. Butler Liu ran back and forth to welcome guests, always smiling. He was quick and decent in handling things, and he had won the trust of Duan Shizhang. When he appeared, it was like half of Duan Shizhang. So no matter which guest saw him, he would always be there. Hurry up to bow and salute, I really don't know if it's Butler Liu welcoming the guests, or if Butler Liu is being polite on purpose, to give the guests enough face first, so that they can pay a lot of money when the time comes. The guests sat down one by one, and the first-class Longjing tea was already set on the table, and there were countless exquisite snacks.There were people juggling on the stage, regardless of whether the people below were watching or not, they put all their energy into performing. These jugglers were all invited by Chen Guo from Wangfenglou, and they were here for the warm-up.Chen Guo is not qualified to sit in the seat of the guests. All the guests present are richer than Chen Guo, and their fingers are thicker than Chen Guo's thighs, so Chen Guo just brought the team and stood behind the stage by himself. One by one, he told the jugglers who were about to take the stage to work hard and make no mistakes.
