"Everyone, what I'm telling you today is the new book "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" by 'Cong Sanshao', which starts from the first chapter, 'The Peach Garden Betrothal'..."
On the central stage on the first floor of the Huibin Building, the famous storyteller Kuaisui Lao Li began the magnificent and exciting journey of the Three Kingdoms.
The originally noisy restaurant soon became peaceful, with only the clear and exciting voice of the fast-talking old Li, all the guests were immersed in the magnificent history of the Three Kingdoms.
In order to attract the audience, Kuaisui Lao Li also tried his best and talked about the three parts of "Taoyuan sworn brotherhood", "Shi Changshi's chaos in government" and "Dong Zhuo's domination of the capital" in one breath.
The content is exciting and colorful. The historical picture of the Three Kingdoms slowly unfolds in the mouth of Kuaisui Lao Li. There are magnificent war scenes, bizarre and unpredictable court battles, and the invincible Xiliang cavalry. In addition, the exciting plot of the high dynasty is exciting.
Zi then made the drinkers fall into it, and the blood in their chests was agitated for a long time and they could not calm down.
Such a scene was staged in major restaurants and teahouses in the four cities of the capital this evening, attracting countless listeners and becoming addicted to it.
If you feel that the content of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is familiar, you are right.
"The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" created by Jia Cong is based on the general plot of the TV series with unique processing.
There is no Ming Dynasty or Luo Guanzhong in the world of Red Mansions. Of course, there are still stories of the Three Kingdoms, but they have not formed a complete system and are relatively messy and insufficiently influential.
With Jia Cong's photographic memory, he has a deep memory of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" TV series that he has watched many times, but he is not deeply impressed by the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" books.
To put it more clearly, the content of the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" book in his impression was too bland and boring in the eyes of him, an experienced reader who has read a lot of online novels.
Then, he simply compiled it according to the content of the TV series, and added some routines from online novels, all written in vernacular.
Is it effective...
If you look at the intoxicated faces of the guests in major restaurants and teahouses, and their happy or angry expressions depending on the plot, you will know that his new book has been successful again.
Not only was it successful, but it was also a huge hit.
Starting from the next day, the entire capital was attracted by the sudden "Three Kingdoms Fever". Everyone knew that "Cong Sanshao", a somewhat famous miscellaneous book author, had published a wonderful novel describing the Three Kingdoms.
Huiyou Bookstore and the Xue family's Yiqian Bookstore in Beijing were almost overcrowded by customers buying new books.
This heated situation lasted for a long time as the storytelling of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms continued to deepen, and the Three Kingdoms craze became even more intense.
At the current shopping mall in the capital, almost everyone is talking about the Three Kingdoms, whether they are the Five Tiger Generals of Shu or the Five Great Generals of Wei, and there are also debates about the ranking of various advisers. Don’t let the topic get too hot.
For a time, the name of the author of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, "Cong Sanshao", not only resounded throughout the capital, but also expanded his influence to the outside world in a frantic manner.
In such a heated atmosphere, the childbirth trials in various counties in the capital were launched. Except for a group of people related to it, it caused almost no disturbance to the outside world.
Jia Yun and a group of Jia clan students quietly participated in the childbirth examination in Jingxian County, without attracting the attention of Ningrong and the Jia clan in the capital.
At this time, the fever of the Three Kingdoms had quietly poured into the Rongguo Mansion, and it had also become a topic of conversation among the ladies of the house, as well as the young ladies.
In fact, the story of the Three Kingdoms is indeed wonderful, and both men and women can find content that suits them.
In addition, when gathering with friends and communicating with other nobles, most of them are talking about the Three Kingdoms. If you don't want to be left out, you can only take the initiative to familiarize yourself with the story of the Three Kingdoms and actively participate in the lively discussions.
Not to mention, the praise of military commanders in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is very appealing to the noble family. They themselves are all warriors, so they naturally feel more cordial and talk about it more actively and eagerly.
Of course, in this heated atmosphere, it is not that no one is dissident and shows complete disdain for the book "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".
These naysayers are basically literati. It's not that they don't like the story of the Three Kingdoms, but they disdain that the stories in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" are all written in vernacular, thinking that doing so is quite vulgar and not worthy of elegance.
Go to Nima’s elegant hall!
Looking at the increasing fortune of the Golden Finger Luck Pagoda, Jia Cong was so happy that he couldn't find the time and energy to pay attention to those nit-picking remarks.
If you think the writing is crude, you don’t have to read it. I’m not begging you to read it!
Although he had long known the power of the Three Kingdoms story, he never expected that the systematic Three Kingdoms story would become so popular in the capital.
Even the elder, who had been drunkenly and dreamily, and hardly participated in any external activities, was also affected. Hearing the rumors outside, he specially summoned Jia Cong one day. Rarely, he did not reprimand him harshly, but instead asked about his facial expressions.
Obviously, Jia Cong will definitely show up for the great master this time.
When the elder was happy, he directly rewarded Jia Cong with a set of carefully collected cultural toys, and gave a rare compliment in his words.
Jia Cong was really flattered and almost patted his chest to express that he would continue to work hard and would never disappoint the elder.
When he left, holding a bunch of extremely precious toys, he felt it was still unreal. It was obvious that he made the right choice this time.
What made him feel lucky was that the elder was obsessed with being an otaku and didn't care at all about Jia Cong's studies. He rarely praised and praised him, so he just rewarded him with what he thought was a good thing without grabbing him.
His studies were in trouble.
On the other hand, the second master Zheng, who had never met each other, specially sent his senior attendant to call Jia Cong to the study room in the main courtyard to talk.
"The novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was really written by you?"
After the meeting and the courtesy, Jia Zheng was not polite at all and did not drive away the guest in the room. He bluntly expressed his suspicion.
"Second Master, "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is a novel I wrote based on the folk tales of the Three Kingdoms and related historical records!"
Jia Cong was not polite and directly mentioned relevant historical materials such as "Three Kingdoms", and finally said: "So far, it is relatively successful!"
"You are a junior, but if you don't make progress in ethnic studies, you still have the thought and energy to write a novel like "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms"!"
Jia Zheng's face turned serious and he reprimanded angrily: "You must know that the imperial examination is the right way. Don't waste your time on writing novels. You will be happy after you get some small results. When you go back, you can study at home..."
