Chapter 565:
While John was entertaining the two girls, Zheng Guotian started looking for an opera house suitable for chartering with tasks and manpower.
It’s not difficult to book an opera house, and whether it’s expensive or not depends on how long you want to book. Some people only book one performance, so the price may be one or two hundred. Naturally over a thousand or even thousands.
Of course, if you give enough money, it will be different.
After Zheng Guotian went out for about half an hour, he arrived at one of the most reputable opera houses in the West District.
Since Zheng Guotian came with a few subordinates, and they were well dressed, when they asked to see the manager, the staff did not dare to neglect.
After the briefing, the manager in his forties walked up to Zheng Guotian and the others in formal attire.
"Hello, sir, my name is Wesker, and I'm the person in charge of this opera house. May I help you?" Wesker greeted formally.
】
"Zheng Guotian~ Hello, at 7:30, I hope you can arrange a few wonderful opera performances for my husband. Only my boss and his friends can watch it. Can you do it?" Zheng Guotian didn't hesitate when he saw the person in charge. directly stated the request of his boss.
"May I take the liberty to ask what your husband's name is?" Wesker asked.
"A respected rich man~ What's the problem?" Zheng Guotian responded peacefully.
"No, I just want to inquire about your husband's preferences so that he can arrange his favorite opera performance. After all, different people like different things." Wesker still had a respectful tone.
"He wants to bring two distinguished noble ladies to watch. The two young ladies under the age of 20 shall prevail, and it is best for them to watch the performance." Zheng Guotian thought for a while and then said.
"What time do you expect to leave?" Wesker continued to ask.
"Until they get up and leave~" Zheng Guotian looked at it impatiently, and John gave him the watch.
"Well, then I will arrange until twelve o'clock in the evening." Vickers nodded.
"There are seven performances in total, and there are two more preparations~ Four of them are unique performances in our theater, and the last three are new programs this week. I believe the two ladies will be satisfied with this."
"It's better, how much is it?" Zheng Guotian asked.
"It depends on the number of shows you guys watch~ $300 for each show, and $100 for those who don't show up. Depending on your situation, the prepayment is $600~" Weeks said .
The price is inflated~ But Zheng Guotian didn't want to bargain for this little money, he even wanted to post the money himself to make the show more perfect.
"Very good, clean up the sanitation environment before 7:30, I don't want to see any idlers and messy environment when Mr. comes in~" Zheng Guotian then signaled to his subordinates, and then his subordinates took out a stack of banknotes and handed them to Mr. he.
"As you wish~" Wesker showed more respect after taking the money.
"The two of you stay here to help, and you can help deal with anything you encounter~" Zheng Guotian said to the two people around him.
The two subordinates nodded, and then Zheng Guotian left here with the remaining two.
"Take these two gentlemen to the guest room to rest."
Immediately afterwards, Wesker also said to the two of them, "Sir, we will notify the two gentlemen to check when we are ready~"
The two nodded after hearing it, and one of them said, "If you have any trouble~ you can tell us, we will help you solve it~"
"Thank you sir~"
After the two left, Wesker turned around and told the staff, "Go to the backstage and inform all the foremen, and those who are off work will also be notified to come back, so that they can prepare to work overtime until twelve o'clock tonight. In addition to the share~ there is an extra one hundred dollars, and those who do not need to perform can also get a forty dollar subsidy."
"Yes~sir~" After the staff responded, one of them turned and left.
Then Wesker said to another person, "Go outside the door and inform the guests who want to come in that the tickets for tonight are sold out, let them come over tomorrow~"
"Okay~ Mr. Wesker~" The two then walked towards the gate of the opera house.
And when Zheng Guotian returned to the villa, it was already seven o'clock.
Zheng Guotian saw a servant bringing in fruit, so he directly took over the plate of expensive fruit, tidied up his appearance, and walked into the living room.
And John was chatting happily with a few people, and Nick and Gina were also there. Nick interjected from time to time, while Gina, after taking a shower, looked down at the fruit that Hathaway gave her just now and remained silent.
Nick saw Zheng Guotian bringing in the fruit and glanced at him, while Zheng Guotian nodded slightly.
Nick then looked at his watch, and then said to several people, "John~ it's almost time~ let's go there~"
"Okay~ let's go there~" John also got up and said to several people.
Immediately afterwards, the three men and three women took the two carriages arranged by Zheng Guotian to the theater just now~
John shared a carriage with the three daughters, while Nick shared a carriage with Zheng Guotian.
"John asked you to check tomorrow the guy named James who came to discuss business today. His sphere of influence is in Van Horn Harbor. He is an old man in his fifties. He seems to be in the smuggling business. There are probably a lot of merchant ships." Nick said to Zheng Guotian after getting into the carriage.
"Well~ I'll contact someone tomorrow, and I can get his clues within two or three days." Zheng Guotian naturally knew that he didn't have much power in Van Hornport, and he needed to talk to Xu Wenbin later. He remembered that there was also a hometown association there.
"By the way~ Zheng, have you seen these things after all these years here?" Nick asked relaxedly after finishing the task.
"I didn't have the money to watch these before, and now I'm not very interested in them, but I see a lot of people like them~" Zheng Guotian responded very honestly.
"I'm almost the same, but I went to see it with my former boss in Heishui Town, and it was not bad~ It's just that the music performances were a little hypnotic and made me sleepy~haha~" Nick also recalled those years.
"Hehe~ I'll feel it later~" Zheng Guotian responded.
"By the way~ I've been here for so long, I don't even know if you have a family. I heard that the rich people in your side have several wives?" Nick suddenly asked gossip.
"Uh~ Except for the first wife, the others are called concubines~ But they are more like servants of the wife and husband. But apart from the wife and husband, they don't need to listen to other people, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com The rest The power is about the same." Zheng Guotian struggled to explain to Nick the meaning of the concubine's room.
"Servants? That means they are not even lovers?" Nick naturally had a hard time understanding.
"No, they are servants of the husband and wife, but if they are favored by the husband, the concubine can enjoy the same treatment as the wife instead of listening to the wife." Zheng Guotian explained with great effort that the concubine over there is different from the lover here. , he knows that the lovers here are quite free.
"Ah~ sounds very rough and barbaric~" Nick said with a bit of disgust, but he didn't hide his disgust.
"Maybe it's called lagging~ or something else." Zheng Guotian didn't care too much about Nick's attitude.
While talking, the carriage stopped, the two got out of the carriage, and then followed the four people in front into the theater.
The remaining six people followed behind Nick and Zheng Guotian.
And Wesker, the person in charge of this opera house, stood respectfully at the door and led John and others into the theater~
