    Jia Chang won the favor of the Tang Dynasty with his cockfighting skills. This incident was a great shock to the aspiring scoundrels in Chang'an City!  Why can¡¯t they do what the children of the Jia family can do?  Why do they not have the status that the children of the Jia family have?  Especially Xiao Bailang, who came to Chang'an from other places to work hard, was even more dissatisfied with this opportunity: What kind of skills does Jia Chang'er have? Isn't it just that he has a household registration in the capital? If he had settled in the capital earlier, how could he be as good as him?  Chance!  It can be seen from this that the importance of household registration in the capital has been known since ancient times.  Xiao Bailang is by no means a kind-hearted person. Thinking that he might be able to enter the holy vision of today's emperor like Jia Chang with an idea from Ye Chang, and then rise to the top. For this opportunity, he will give up any face to his mother's side.  Go!  "Ye Langjun, you are a villain in the market. You don't know etiquette and don't know how to advance or retreat. You have offended many people. Please forgive me, Ye Langjun!" He came back and saluted Ye Chang with a long bow.  Ye Chang looked at him with a smile. This look fell in Shan Zhi's eyes, and Shan Zhi couldn't help but move to the side.  He is relatively familiar with Ye Chang now, and naturally knows that Ye Chang's expression is probably scheming again.  "You are the only one?" Ye Chang asked: "You only have this opportunity for yourself?" Xiao Bailang was stunned, and immediately turned back to his companions and said: "Brothers, why don't you apologize to Ye Langjun!" He is the victim.  Now that that's the case, what will happen to the rest of the people? Most of them either clasped their fists or raised their hands, and two or three clever ones also followed Xiao Bailang's example and bowed their heads.  Suddenly, Ye Chang was surrounded by voices of "forgiveness" and "forgiveness".  "It's better to be in time than to be early. You are here today, and I will lead you to play." Ye Chang handed over to Tan Qinshou: "Brother Tan, please give me three tables of wine and food. I will meet these brothers in the afternoon.  Drink hard. My brother has just passed away. Although it is not suitable to drink, I will ask Xiao Wulang to pay tribute to all brothers for me. " Xiao Bailang responded vaguely without understanding what Ye Chang's plan was.  He was still thinking about the gamble Ye Chang played just now and the opportunity Ye Chang mentioned.  "Xiao Wulang, where is the open space?" Ye Chang pulled him aside: "It must be more than thirty-three feet long and more than twenty-five feet wide." "There is such an open space behind Qinglong Temple, but it faces the street. During curfew time  I can't stay any longer," Xiao Wulang said.  "Well, have you ever played polo?" "A certain person is not good at riding. Although he likes polo, he has never played it." "Where is Cuju?" "That's natural. My brothers and I are Baoningfang Cuju.  First!" Ye Chang laughed after hearing this. It would be better if they have certain skills.  "I have a way to play, which is to combine polo and Cuju" Ye Chang explained the rules of the football game in detail. Since polo and Cuju are very popular in the Tang Dynasty, there is no doubt that football will also have a great impact.  prevail.  Scoundrels like Xiao Bailang will definitely like this kind of confrontational and entertaining game.  Sure enough, after hearing Ye Chang's introduction, Xiao Bailang repeatedly clapped his hands in agreement. After Ye Chang finished speaking, when he looked at Ye Chang's expression, he saw a very different expression.  Ye Langjun, who comes from out of town, really has endless tricks in his mind!  Not to mention the copper coin play he played just now, he won every time, and now this football play will soon set off a trend in Chang'an City!  People like Xiao Bailang who have been in the market for a long time can fully appreciate the charm of football drama: almost all those who like polo and Cuju in Chang'an City will turn their interest to simpler rules, lower playing requirements and better organization of the game.  Easier football drama coming up!  "If this matter is handled well, Xiao Wulang, your wealth will be able to rely on this in the future. Not only you, but also the brothers around you will have no problem living a prosperous life with food and clothing." Ye Chang said with a smile:  "But this matter is simple, and there will be many imitators, so we must be one step ahead. If Xiao Wulang, you think this matter can still be handled, find thirty-six people, divide them into two teams, let me train for five days, and then start preparing to organize  Competition." The two of them were talking in detail on one side, and no one else could hear it. They could only see Xiao Bailang's face flickering, and his eyes were filled with ecstasy and confusion.  This is a pie from heaven!  From polo and Cuju to football drama, it is just a change of thought. Because polo requires horses and armor, it cannot be played unless you belong to a wealthy family. Cuju is more performative than competitive. Although it is widely popular, it can actually be played on the field.  There are not many people, and participation is far less convenient than in a football scene.  Xiao Bailang clearly understood the interests behind polo and Cuju. Therefore, he was excited about this new entertainment proposed by Ye Chang. At that moment, his first thought was to get rid of Ye Chang.  Run this alone.  But looking at Ye ChangYes, thinking of Ye Chang's endless methods, Xiao Bailang immediately stopped thinking about it.  I don¡¯t know if Ye Chang has any hidden tricks, just like the copper coin scene just now.  "Yewhat does Ye Langjun want me to do?" Xiao Bailang struggled in his heart for a long time and finally asked.  "One thing is extremely simple. I want to know the truth about the conflict between my brother and Yang Fu, the steward of Princess Xianyi's Mansion." Ye Chang said calmly: "This matter requires those of you who are familiar with the Chang'an market to come forward to inquire. It's just an inquiry.  According to the news, there is not much risk." "That's it?" "Of course, if it's not the case, what else can I do?" Ye Chang said with a smile, and then added: "If you don't believe it, the look in my eyes is the result of the heart.  Window, if my mind is not right, my eyes must also be wrong. How can I lie with such clear eyes? " "Uh do you think I'm stupid?" Xiao Bailang wanted to retort, hoping to face Ye Chang that.  With a smile on his face, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.  Since they met, except for punching him at the beginning, he has been led by this person since then. Ye Chang can really treat him as a fool.  "Then it's up to you, what else do you need to do?" "The people you summon should all have some knowledge of Cuju. Then, you send people to get these items. If you don't want to pay for anything, just do it.  Just come to me." Ye Chang said again.  He looked confident. Xiao Bailang nodded after hearing the words, and then called for people to get things, such as lime, wooden strips, fishing nets, etc., and also to find a carpenter.  After giving the instructions, Xiao Bailang finally realized: Why did he just listen to Ye Chang's orders?  There seems to be a strange power in this guy's words, which makes people act involuntarily. It seems that he is a person who is used to giving orders Could such a person be a direct descendant of one of the rich families in Shandong?  Although the strength of Shandong's aristocratic families has been greatly reduced after being suppressed by several emperors, they are still considered to be powerful families. Even the Li and Tang royal families often marry into them.  But among these famous aristocratic families, none has the surname Ye.  "We have to find out more about this guy's details." Xiao Bailang thought to himself.  Tan Qinshou next to him felt very uncomfortable when he saw Ye Chang instructing Xiao Bailang like this. Ye Chang seemed to know what he was thinking, and turned around with a smile: "This matter is also related to Brother Tan's folding fan business. Brother Tan is doing this."  Does the folding fan have a name? " "What's the name? " " Like wine, there are Jiannanchun, Sanlejing, and Longjiao wine. This folding fan should also have a name, such as Qin Carpenter, so that it can be distinguished from the ordinary ones. " "  Qin Carpenter No, this name is too weird. Although our Qin family deals in wood and bamboo, we are not carpenters. How about why not give us a nice and elegant one? " "Uh" Qin Qinshou pushed the matter aside.  He gave it back to Ye Chang, who couldn't help but scratch his head.  ?Choose a brand name, if it is catchy, it will be beneficial to the promotion of the product.  Ye Chang knew this very well. He thought about it for a while and suddenly remembered an allusion He Zhizhang said when he was talking about folding fans with He Zhizhang and Zhang Xu.  According to the "Book of Jin", Wang Xizhi once inscribed a hexagonal bamboo fan for an old woman, so that the value of the fan increased from twelve to one hundred inscriptions, thus relieving her temporary difficulties.  So he smiled and said: "I have a name, Youjun Fan, how about it?" When he told this allusion, Qin Qinshou was also present.  He didn't read much, but Wang Xizhi, a great calligrapher, still knew about it. Hearing this, he said happily: "Okay, it couldn't be better. Our Qin family's folding fan is the Youjun fan." "You can also make up a story, so that's it.  It is said that the old woman is an ancestor of the Qin family, and the style of inscriptions and paintings on the fans has been passed down to this generation," Ye Chang suggested.  Tan Qinshou smiled and said nothing. Ye Chang understood what he meant. It was not something that Tan Qinshou could make the decision to identify his ancestors.  Ye Chang returned to the topic: "In five days, there will be a football match. This football match will be called the 'Youjun Fan' Cup. How about Brother Qin sponsoring it?" "Uh.  ?" "The momentum has been built up in the past few days" Ye Chang pulled him and elaborated. It was nothing more than creating topics and suspense, and using various hype methods to spread the word about the first football match to be held in five days.  When more people come to watch the fun, the Qin family¡¯s folding fans will naturally become famous!  Qin Qinshou himself is also familiar with the art of doing business. Hearing Ye Chang's general explanation, he was already in admiration: just like Ye Chang suggested that he give a folding fan to the new scholar, this is an excellent marketing method at this time.  But in Ye Chang's mouth, as if it was just a trivial trick, he picked it up and handed it over to Qin Qinshou at will.  "If Eleventh Lang goes to do business, all businesses in the world will probably close down." After hearing this, Tan Qinshou couldn't help but praise.    "Wrong, if I go into business, I will let all the merchants in the world have endless business." Ye Chang said with a smile: "If one person is only fat, how can the whole world be rich?" "This is Shiyilang's.  "Ambition?" "I may not go into business, but if I have the opportunity and the ability, I think it would be better to let other businesses prosper." Piru said, if I run run a restaurant, I have to sell the restaurant together.  Related industries are brought up, such as those who grow vegetables, those who graze, and those who make ceramics. " "That's right, if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them. " "Not only that, there is no end to the money.  The pie can be made bigger, and more people can join in. These people have the same interests and similar goals as me, and in the end they will all be helped by me." Qin Qinshou lowered his head and frowned, thinking carefully for a while, and then looked up.  Not surprised, but full of respect.  "Ye Langjun" "Well, do you have any questions?" "It's not about this." Tan Qinshou cupped his hands and said: "Since I made friends with Langjun, I have been surprised to see him have wonderful tricks many times.  More than in the previous thirty years. But just now, I have discovered that Lang Jun has some wonderful ideas, and I am not surprised at all. The only thing left is admiration. It is indeed what the immortal has pointed out. "  Although Ye Chang was praised in person, he couldn't help but trembled even though his facial skills were amazing: "Umah haha, do you think the football drama can be useful?"  Just sponsor the league, Datang Football League" Ye Chang said seriously.  He now gradually feels that he has found his life direction in Datang.  If nothing unexpected happens, he will still have a few decades of good life in the Tang Dynasty. In more than ten years, the Tang Dynasty will usher in a key change from victory to decline. The Anshi Rebellion swept across the northern part of the Tang Dynasty. The current peaceful age will be over in the blink of an eye.  Like oil boiling in a raging fire, it boils and fills the sky!  Ye Chang didn't want to spend the rest of his life running for his life, and he didn't want to be hacked to death by barbarians or soldiers and fell into the dirt.  And, he still has someone he cares about.  Thinking that he had been away from Xiuwu for nearly half a month, and that it would take another three to five months before he could go back, Ye Chang missed Xiang'er, his sister-in-law and the others.  Therefore, Ye Chang's wish at this time is to complete the layout in Chang'an as soon as possible, obtain the most important things for him, and then go back to reunite with them.  "What does Ye Langjun want? You didn't take credit for the Hong Canal diversion, and you didn't take credit for the folding fan. Now for the football drama, you pushed that Xiao Bailang out, and you still don't take credit  Ye Langjun, what do you want?" Qin Qinshou asked again.  "So what can I do if I take credit now? I even reported to the court about the water diversion from the Hong Canal, but the county magistrate only sent me a few coins to get rid of the problem. The credit still belongs to the county magistrate. For the folding fan thing, I took on the false reputation of an invention.  , Brother Qin and your Qin family are the ones making money, and it may also arouse the jealousy of some people in the Qin family. There is no reason why we can't be friends with Brother Qin. As for the football scene, I will go somewhere to find dozens of people who can play football.  , even if you are invited, how can you ensure that no one will come to make trouble?" Seeing that Qin Qinshou even asked such questions, Ye Chang vaguely guessed what he was thinking, so he frankly told him what he wanted to say: "  What I manage now is connections." "Please ask Shi Yilang to teach me," Qin Qinshou said sincerely.  "Brother Tan is just one of the many children of the Tan family. He must have failed when he was sent to practice martial arts. But after the success of the folding fan, Brother Tan's status in the Tan family will definitely rise greatly. He earns tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of coins a year.  Brother Qin is in charge of the business, so when I ask Brother Qin to sponsor me, will Brother Qin still hesitate?" Qin Qinshou shook his head without hesitation: "Even now, I won't hesitate." "Then Xiao Wulang.  He is just the leader of a gang of gangsters, and can barely be regarded as a city fox and a social rat in Chang'an City. But if the football drama can be successful, then his status will be directly that of Jia Chang. If I ask him for help at that time, will he help me?  " "That's it" Tan Qinshou completely understood what Ye Chang meant.
