Chapter 28a: The First Wondrous Move
Fengming gave the two of them a bow, then took the bamboo flute that Mama Du offered to her. She sat on the stool and played the flute.
Once it sounded, Luo Qing Luan’s eyes shined.
Even though she was not so skilled at music at all, she was still able to distinguish whether something sounded good or not.
The sound of this flute was just like a lark in the mountains, mellow and sweet, making a person enthralled listening to it. And the music also revolved as if there were clouds and mist hazily covering the morning skies, making the music not so distinct. This flute music changed again a third time and suddenly the pitch was raised extremely high, as if the skylark flew into the skies, rising softly and brightly quickly.
Once she finished the song, Fengming then half rose out of her stool. Only then did Luo Qing Luan regain her senses.
"Not bad. Not bad indeed."
Luo Qing Luan nodded as she smiled. "These three young ladies each have their own style. I guarantee, Mr. Yu, that your Heavenly Dream Tower will become an instant hit. From now on, you no longer need to worry about your competitors."
Nangong Yu waved his hand then stood up in a very complacent manner. "Since Worthy Brother Luo also say this, then let’s make it tomorrow night. We’ll formerly being tomorrow night. I already had people distribute invitations cards to invite the most well-known wealthy merchants at the capital, officials and also some famous scholars here. As long as they are satisfied, they will naturally help us spread the word."
Looking at his extremely confident expression, the corners of Luo Qing Luan’s mouth curved up. "Mr. Yu, you shouldn’t be planning to just have these three ladies go up on stage and directly offering their skills right?"
If it was truly like that, then she’s afraid that the result of her arrangements would be reduced by quite a bit, so much so that they would basically become useless.
Slightly stumped for words, Nangong Yu couldn’t understand what she meant and asked puzzled, "What Brother Luo means is......"
Shaking her head, Luo Qing Luan thought to herself, thank goodness.
If she didn’t luckily come today to take a look, she would still not be aware that Heavenly Dream Tower had already passed out invitations. When that time came, Mr. Yu would act on his own initiative and release the new redecorated Heavenly Dream Tower along with these new young ladies. The effect would be very minimal. Not only would he waste her new ideas, she’s afraid he would even think that she was a swindler.
"Bring your ear over and I’ll tell you."
Luo Qing Luan waved her hand then whispered in his ear. "Have you heard everything clearly? You need to do it this way. Seize the time that we have left, otherwise, you won’t be able to get everything done in time."
As Nangong Yu listened, he nodded repeatedly. Even though he didn’t completely understand Luo Qing Luan’s intent, he immediately had people go and make preparations.
......
Very quickly, almost every prestigious person in the capital, those with wealth, or those with illustrious names, no matter whether they newly passed the imperial exams or they were old and gray-haired big scholars, government officials, or thirty or forty year old middle-aged merchants, practically all of them received Heavenly Dream Tower’s invitation.
Within the state of Western Chu, even though everyone still regarded a courtesan as lowly in status, all of them believed that it’s prestigious and stylish to be able to visit the courtesan houses to enjoy a beauty’s tenderness holding onto one in their left arm, embracing another in their right arm. So much so that there were also people who, in order to win a smile from a famous ’Queen of Flowers’, they would wantonly bet their wealth to finally be able to win over the beauty, which even became an anecdote which others approved of and discussed enthusiastically.
Therefore, each and everyone who received Heavenly Dream Tower’s invitation were honored in their respective fields and nearly all of them came.
The skies had not darkened completely, yet the lobby inside Heavenly Dream Tower was already filled with people.
As the owner, Nangong Yu naturally wouldn’t lower his own noble position to personally greet the guests, therefore Mama Du was busy nearly every second. Facing these many high officials and important people, each of whom could not be offended, her whole face nearly smiled to the point of stiffening.
"Mama Du, your invitation card indeed talked of wonderful things. You’re going to launch a completely new presentation and also new young ladies, guaranteeing experiences that we’ve never encountered before. What......"
A big-bellied middle-aged man brimming with a wealthy aura from head to toe pointed to the middle of the stage and asked, "You guys merely changed the stage, surrounding it with some thin curtains, and you can call that a new presentation?"
After Luo Qing Luan’s pointers, Nangong Yu already had people add some semi-transparent red colored curtains to the originally wide open stage. A hazy feeling permeated its appearance. But as far as these officials who had seen much of the world were concerned, how would they care about something like that?
Mama Du also didn’t know what in the world her owner wanted to do tonight. Once she saw this middle-aged person who was the current administration’s assistant minister of revenue, Yan Xushan, she quickly smiled and replied. "Aiya, Vice-Minister Yan, please don’t look down on this stage. Our Heavenly Dream Tower especially invited the best artisans to remodel it. In a moment, you’ll find out what’s outstanding about it. I guarantee you’ll be satisfied."
Right at this moment, Luo Qing Luan and Nangong Yu were watching the situations downstairs from the fourth floor. They were also waiting for the guests to arrive. After that, they then could officially start the program.
"Brother Luo, your ideas are truly......"
Things having come to a head, Nangong Yu suddenly lost confidence.
It wasn’t at all because he truly cared how satisfied the guests might be with Heavenly Dream Tower, rather it’s because Heavenly Dream Tower was his biggest source of income. It had to do with the money in his pockets.
There were so many things that he wanted to do and each of those things needed the support of money, to the extent that he was somewhat worried.
Yet Luo Qing Luan wasn’t the least bit worried. Based on the last book that she just casually wrote, it was enough for her to imagine that when these guests watched such a novel performance, how much their horizons would be expanded, how they would enjoy themselves so much that they would forget to go home, pushing Heavenly Dream Tower’s reputation to a difficult to predict level.
"Calm down~"
She waved her hand and faintly smiled. "Just wait and see."
