Zhu Yunyu pulled Li Jie out of the house excitedly, and then the two of them came to Cheng'en Temple in a carriage, which is one of the most prosperous areas in the capital. During the Shangyuan Festival, Li Jie took Zhu Yuning here to visit.

Although the Lantern Festival has passed, it is still prosperous here, especially on the street in front of the temple, there are teahouses and restaurants. In addition, there is a famous place here, which is the stage. The stage is not a stage, but a comprehensive place dedicated to performing various zaju operas, similar to the theater in later generations. Its predecessor was the washes of the Song and Yuan dynasties.

The theory of stage originated in Zhejiang in the south. During the Yuan Dynasty, most popular operas originated in the north, so they were also called Bei Opera. However, in the Ming Dynasty, Lao Zhu fought from the south to the north and established his capital in Nanjing. Therefore, southern opera rose, which is the so-called southern opera. The stage was originally called the south, and now it has become a general term for theaters.

Zhu Yunxi and Li Jie got off the carriage in front of the stage, then went in and went straight to a place called "Shenggusian". Although the name of this place is elegant, it is actually a teahouse, but this teahouse is a bit different. For example, a high platform is built in the lobby with tables and chairs on it, and a screen behind it.

On the platform in the lobby, there is usually a storyteller sitting. He keeps talking about storytellers every morning, midnight, and evening. Several storytellers take turns. Moreover, these storytellers are very high-level. Everyone is well-versed in the past and the present. Even if ordinary storytellers are spoken from their mouths, they will have a different charm.

When Li Jie and Zhu Yunyu came, a storyteller happened to be changed to the stage. The man's surname was Wu. He was the most popular storyteller among Gu Xuan. Once he came on stage, he would definitely be full of seats.

I saw Mr. Wu, who was about forty years old, wearing a long blue cloth gown, had a medium figure and was not astonishing appearance. But when he walked onto the stage, he immediately became silent. Then he saw the other person sitting down behind the table, then picked up the arbor and slapped it heavily: "Ba! Thanks to everyone's support, today we will open a new storytelling book called "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Mr. Wu said, someone immediately complained below: "Why are you talking about the Three Kingdoms again? Didn't you just talk about it before the New Year?"

"Haha! Don't be angry, this audience member, the Three Kingdoms we talk about today is different from the past. Speaking of which, this book "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was written by a talented man who worked hard and spent half his life. I also got it by chance. After watching it, I was shocked by the gods, so I was eager to share this strange book with you..."

Mr. Wu is indeed a veteran of storytelling. He immediately blew up the popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms, which of course also aroused the appetite of many people.

Li Jie and Zhu Yun's offstage ordered a pot of tea and a few snacks. While drinking tea, they listened to Mr. Wu's Hubing on the stage. The so-called popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms is actually the Romance of the Three Kingdoms written by Luo Guanzhong. After the last sample was printed, it was approved by Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao, so it immediately started to print on a large scale and was about to be sold.

However, before the sale, Li Jie wanted to make the reputation of the Three Kingdoms in advance, so he discussed with Zhu Yunxi, and Zhu Yunxi came forward to summon the storytellers in the capital, and then gave them the book of Romance of the Three Kingdoms in advance, so that they must start explaining the contents of the book in the past few days. Mr. Wu in front of him was just one of them.

After most of the people were successfully aroused by Mr. Wu, he suddenly slapped the arbor and immediately recited:

The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away the heroes.

Right and wrong, success and failure turn into nothing.

The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red for several times.

The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter are on the river bank, and are used to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze.

A pot of turbid wine meets happily.

Many things in ancient and modern times are all jokes.

A poem about Linjiangxian immediately brought people into the rolling river of history. Then Mr. Wu finally got to the point: "When talking about the general trend of the world, long-term division will lead to unity, long-term integration will lead to unity..."

The grand opening of the Three Kingdoms quickly brought the listeners below to that chaotic era. In addition, Mr. Wu's voice is crisp and his words are clear, making it easier for people to immerse themselves in the story.

Storytelling is not read according to books. Although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is a storyteller's book, in fact, storytellers still have a lot of room for themselves to play when they tell the storytelling. For example, some details are not described in books, storytellers have to make up for it based on their own storytelling skills, and sometimes even have to extend some extra plots, etc. So even for the same storyteller, each storyteller says something different, and Mr. Wu is undoubtedly the best among them.

Li Jie has seen the Three Kingdoms many times, but at this time he felt that the Three Kingdoms that Mr. Wu talked about was fascinating, and finally he couldn't help but be fascinated by it. Zhu Yunxi next to him was even more flirting with him. If he hadn't been too busy in normal times, he would have wished he would come here every day to listen to a storytelling.

Originally, Mr. Wu only talked about a storytelling for half an hour. After all, their storytelling is too tiring. If they talk too much in a day, their voices will probably become hoarse the next day. So, there are only a few storytelling masters in Guxuan who took turns to the stage.

However, today's Three Kingdoms is too exciting. After talking about the Three Kingdoms, Liu Guanzhang was going to fight the Yellow Turban Army, but now he is going to break it in this place. Of course, the audience in the audience was unwilling to do so, so a group of people started to make a fuss, and some people kept giving money to the stage and asked Mr. Wu to continue talking.

Mr. Wu also knew that the people in the audience were all their own parents for food and clothing, so of course they did not dare to offend them too much. In addition, the popularity of this book in the Three Kingdoms was beyond his expectations. Judging from this, it would be impossible not to work hard today.

So in this situation, Mr. Wu talked for another half an hour, and finally the audience wanted to continue listening, but Mr. Wu couldn't stand his throat and had to take a break, otherwise he wouldn't be able to speak tomorrow.

In this case, the audience was full of regret to let Mr. Wu go, but they had made up their minds to tell Gu Xuan tomorrow no matter what, and continue to listen to the next story.

Li Jie and Zhu Yunxi quietly retreated at this time. The audience's reactions were very satisfied. Today, the Three Kingdoms had just begun, and it had already caused a good response. As time goes by, it is estimated that the fame will become more and more important. Perhaps in a few days, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will become a topic of discussion on the streets and alleys. By then, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms will be on the market.

In fact, Li Jie's speculation was still too conservative. In just one day, the Three Kingdoms style, which was spread among storytellers, swept across the capital. At first, it was only spread among storytellers, but soon someone bought a book of Romance of the Three Kingdoms from storytellers at a high price. When the content of the book spread in a small circle, it immediately attracted a lot of attention, and many people were even asking for the book to be bought with a lot of money.

In just a few days, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms was rated as a "strange book" by many people. Many people wanted to buy it but could not get it. After all, Zhu Yunyu only gave away a few storytellers before. Moreover, after the fame of the Three Kingdoms became popular, these storytellers regarded the Romance of the Three Kingdoms as a foodie, and they refused to sell it no matter how much money others paid.

Scarcity is precious. The more people cannot buy the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the more they arouse the curiosity of countless people. Some of the content copied has begun to be circulated among scholars. Unfortunately, these contents are intermittent, so it is better to listen to the storyteller's storytellers.

Taking advantage of this craze, Li Jie also immediately found Luo Guanzhong, but Luo Guanzhong knew nothing about the Three Kingdoms fever in the city, because the little moves made by Li Jie and Zhu Yunxi did not inform him at all. Of course, Li Jie and Zhu Yunxi did not expect that the fire in the Three Kingdoms would be so urgent and prosperous.

But this is also a good thing. After Li Jie told the story, Luo Guanzhong's face turned red with excitement, and immediately decided to sell the books in advance. In fact, since the sample book was confirmed, a lot of Romance of the Three Kingdoms have been printed. Originally, Luo Guanzhong thought that it would be enough to print 5,000 copies for the first time, but Li Jie insisted on printing at least 10,000 copies, otherwise it would not be available at all.

Although there have not been ten thousand copies printed, there are still seven or eight thousand copies, and they can be sold at the same time. So Luo Guanzhong immediately made a decision to start selling his books from now on. When various booksellers learned that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms had a source of goods, they immediately came over like a shark that smelled blood. The seven or eight thousand copies of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms were sold out in the blink of an eye and appeared on the desks of various bookstores the next day.

Those who had no way to buy it learned that the Romance of the Three Kingdoms were actually on sale, which made them excitedly run on the streets to rush to buy it. However, because of the limited supply of goods, each bookstore was very limited in Romance of the Three Kingdoms. As long as you go later, you might be snatched away. So many people came to ask about it from door to door, and some people even ran all over the bookstores in the capital within one day.

Luo Guanzhong never dreamed that his book would cause such a big sensation, especially when he and Li Jie took to the streets together and watched countless people chasing the Three Kingdoms he wrote, he was filled with tears of excitement. It seemed that the downs and downs back then were worth it.

Li Jie also understood these people who sought to buy the Three Kingdoms because he had collected three copies of the Three Kingdoms himself, one of which was the first sample book, and the other was the first batch of the Three Kingdoms that were officially printed.

However, these two are nothing, the last one is precious, because in order to thank him, Luo Guanzhong actually gave his manuscript to Li Jie. Although Li Jie repeatedly refused, he could not resist Luo Guanzhong's insistence, because for him, the Three Kingdoms had been printed into books, and it would be useless for him to keep these manuscripts, so Li Jie had to accept them in the end.

However, just when the entire capital was crazy because of the Three Kingdoms, something very disharmonious happened. Perhaps it was nothing to others, but Li Jie felt it was very hateful!
