The work in Nafu City is proceeding in an orderly manner, and in the royal capital, the story about the mermaid is also slowly fermenting.
Wendy still started telling this story about the mermaid in the outer city of the royal capital. After singing the song, the onlookers below shed tears and took out coins from their pockets and threw them to Wendy as a reward.
Looking at the small pile of coins below, Wendy's heart was filled with endless joy, not because he had received a reward that he had never received before, but because of the joy of being recognized and the sense of accomplishment that his efforts were recognized by others.
"Thank you everyone for listening. I will continue to perform here tomorrow." Wendy bowed deeply to the crowd below.
In the next few days, Wendy will be here telling the story of the mermaid. More and more people come to watch, and she gets more and more rewards. Every day after she goes back, she will summarize the shortcomings of the stories and skills she told during the day. In this kind of positive feedback, her skills are growing at a speed visible to the naked eye every day, and the stories of the mermaid are becoming more and more beautiful.
Gradually, Wendy's reputation has become quite famous in Outer City in the royal capital. Even if the residents of the royal capital have not heard of the story of the mermaid, they are still familiar with it.
You can hear people discussing stories about mermaids in the streets.
"Do you think the prince will come back to see the mermaid in the end?" a girl asked, wiping her tears. She had obviously just returned from listening to the story from Wendy.
"I don't think so. He is already a prince. He must have gone back to his kingdom to find other good-looking Princess, so he won't come back." The boy replied.
"Hmph! You don't understand anything! The prince loves Mermaid Princess so much, he will definitely come back!"
The boy said firmly, "You already said he is a prince, who can stop him if he wants to come back! He must have changed his mind after returning to the kingdom. He is a scumbag. If it were me, I would definitely not do this!"
"Humph!" The girl stomped her feet angrily, almost crying, "You don't understand at all! I want to go home!"
"Don't leave. Didn't you agree to go to the restaurant to eat?" The boy chased after him, still mumbling, "Why are you angry? It must be because of that prince. I told you that he is a scumbag. There is no need to be angry with that kind of person. Come and eat with me. I made a reservation at the restaurant after a long time. It's all the food you like."
"I said! I want to go home! Don't follow me. If you follow me again, I'll punch you twice!" the girl warned, waving her fist angrily.
Only the boy was left at the street corner, holding a bouquet of flowers, not knowing what he had done wrong.
After one day's performance, Wendy bowed to thank the audience as usual, and then picked up the rewards. There were nearly five Gold Coins. Now she can earn in one day what she used to earn in a month.
As soon as he raised his head, he saw several huge figures standing in front of him. He was so frightened that Wendy hugged his reward money and took a few steps back. He looked over with a vigilant look and shouted, "Don't mess around. Team City Guard is not far from here. Even if you steal my money, you will be caught."
As for the fruits of his hard work, Wendy didn't want them to be taken away, so he could only warn him like this.
An old man who looked like a steward walked out from behind those tall figures, with only a few white hairs left on his head.
The old man coughed a few times and said, "Ahem, lady, don't panic, we're not here to steal your money."
Wendy still didn't let go of the vigilance in her eyes, and still hugged her reward money tightly. She started wandering when she was more than ten years old, and had seen a lot of ugly human nature, so she would not believe the other party's words so easily.
"Then what do you mean?" Wendy looked at the other people and asked.
The people in front of them gave people a sinister look. Even Wendy could see the scars everywhere on their bodies. Coupled with the fleshy faces, it was hard for people to believe that they were not bad people.
The old man glanced at the people beside him, and those people stepped back a few steps, leaving the two of them to continue talking.
"Sorry, you misunderstood. These are the thugs in our opera house. As you know, in our line of work, we will inevitably encounter some troublemakers, so this is essential."
"Opera House?" Wendy widened his curious eyes.
The old man said politely, "Yes, I am the manager of Dayas Opera House, and I would like to invite you to play a story about mermaids."
Wendy A flash of light flashed in her eyes. Dayas Opera House She had naturally heard of it. This was a famous opera house in the capital. Many stars who became famous overnight came from here. She had had a dream before, that is, to be able to enter and perform her talents here, but when this opportunity was placed in front of her, she couldn't believe it.
Seeing that Wendy was silent, the old man thought she was taking care of something, and then said, "Don't worry, the people in our opera house are very professional, and they will definitely help you tell the story well. You see what kind of actors you want, we can find them for you. The mermaid is a bit difficult to find, but with some magic skills, you can still show the desired effect."
"Oh!" Wendy finally came to his senses, but his expression was still a little embarrassed, and he asked in a panic, "How much does it cost for a performance? I only have a total of five or six hundred Gold Coins on me now, and I'm afraid it won't be enough."
Wendy I have heard some seniors talk about their dreams before: when they save enough money, they must go to the opera house to have a performance of their own.
"Hahahaha." The old man laughed heartily as if he heard something funny. "We at Dayas Opera House are different from those small opera houses. Even if we are given money, we will not accept works of poor quality."
Wendy's eyes lit up, "Then what do you mean..."
"Yes, your story is very good. We will not charge you money. Only those opera houses that cannot survive will charge performers' money, and we will give you a good reward. This is what you deserve."
"How much is the generous reward?" Wendy asked cautiously.
"Two thousand Gold Coins are used as a base for a performance, and then they are distributed according to the amount of tickets sold. It is not uncommon for a performance to earn more than ten thousand Gold Coins."
"Really?!" Wendy asked excitedly, how long would it take to earn ten thousand Gold Coins like her?
"Of course! This is normal for us. How about it? Have you considered it? Do you want to come to Dayas Opera House to perform? Our boss is very optimistic about your performance."
"Of course I do!" Wendy was about to jump with joy, one of life's ideals was about to come true!
The old man also had a smile on his face, "Then let's go and start rehearsing as soon as possible and try to start the performance next week. The actors have been decided. You can choose whoever you like."
"Okay, now! I'll pack things up." Wendy began to pack up the things he put on the ground.
"Let them help you get it." The old man waved his hand, and the strong men behind him started to move forward.
Wendy's movements became faster, he put the things he had not packed away into his arms, and shouted, "No, no, no! I can do it myself!"
It's more secure to keep your own meal guy and the reward money in your own hands.
