No matter what Yu Niaoniao said, Zheng Zaizhou was still very afraid and unwilling to take this risk.

Seeing this, Yu Niaoniao could only give up on the idea of working with the Heavenly Oriole Garden.

She stood up. “Since Old Master Zheng is unwilling, I can’t force you. Just pretend I didn’t mention this. Goodbye.”

With that, she walked out.

Zheng Changle quickly chased after her and stopped her.

“Don’t be in a hurry to leave!”

Yu Niaoniao stopped. “Since the business can’t be discussed, what’s the point of me staying here? Why don’t I take a look at the other theaters while it’s still early?”

The Heavenly Oriole Garden was not the only theater in the Imperial Capital. If it could not be done here, perhaps she could try other places.

Zheng Changle advised, “Even if you run around the entire Imperial Capital, it’s impossible for anyone to dare to cooperate with you. Because everyone is afraid of death! No one would offend the infamous Duke Lang for a show. This isn’t worth it!”

Yu Niaoniao pursed her lower lip with a stubborn expression. “If everyone refuses to cooperate with me, I’ll buy a theater myself. I’ll be the owner. I can arrange any show I want!”

Zheng Changle did not expect her determination to be so great.

He was puzzled. “Isn’t it just a play? Do you have to spend so much money?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “You don’t understand. This is very important to me. I have to finish it.

Zheng Changle sighed.

“Since you’re determined, I won’t persuade you. I know that there was an opera troupe in the city that is about to stop operating. The troupe master is preparing to sell the opera troupe and leave the Imperial Capital. If you really want to open a theater, I can introduce you.”

Yu Niaoniao’s eyes lit up. “Thank you so much!”

Zheng Changle was caught by her sparkling eyes and involuntarily puffed out his chest.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to him now.”

Yu Niaoniao followed him downstairs excitedly.

When the two of them walked out of the theater, they bumped into Wei Liao.

Wei Liao raised his eyebrows. “Where are you going?”

Zheng Changle did not know what to say. Before Yu Niaoniao could speak, he told Wei Liao everything.

Knowing that Yu Niaoniao was going to buy an opera troupe, Wei Liao clicked his tongue.

“Do you know how much it costs to buy a theater?”

“Oh, right. You made a lot of money selling pillows and bookmarks. You should barely buy a dilapidated opera troupe.”

“But do you know how much it costs to rent a venue and pay to keep a theater running?”

“Do you have enough?”

Yu Niaoniao subconsciously touched the pouch at her waist and said confidently, “It’s none of your business!” Wei Liao smiled and extended his right hand.

“Where’s my bookmark?”

Yu Niaoniao took out the ten bookmarks from her sleeve and placed them in his hand.

“Here you go. We’re even. Don’t follow me anymore.”

With that, she walked away.

Zheng Changle did not know how to ride a horse, so he could only take a carriage. Yu Niaoniao was still riding her donkey.

The two of them walked through the streets and alleys for a long time before they found the Cheri opera troupe Zheng Changle had mentioned.

The opera troupe was located in a very remote place. There were poor people living all around. The pedestrians on the streets were dressed very shabby.

When they saw the two well-dressed people, Yu Niaoniao and Zheng Changle, they could not help but look at them twice,

Yu Niaoniao looked at the courtyard door in front of her. There was a piece of red paper stuck to it. On the paper were four words:

Qirui Opera Troupe,

This was their troupes signboard.

It was really very shabby.

Zheng Changle went forward and knocked.

As he waited for the door to open, he whispered to Yu Niaoniao.

‘”The troupe master of Cherys opera troupe is called Liu Qirui. He has a bad temper and is very stubborn. If he says anything to make you unhappy, don’t lower yourself to his level.”

Yu Niaoniao said, “You seem to know him very well.”

Zheng Changle had a complicated expression as he spoke slowly.

“He and my father are sworn enemies. The two of them had been fighting since they met. My father often said other things. Sometimes he gritted his teeth in hatred, and sometimes he was smug. But more of it should be appreciation. Although Qirui Opera Troupe looked dilapidated now, it was also a famous drama troupe back then. Even our Heavenly Oriole Garden would be suppressed by it.”

“Unfortunately, Liu Qirui had unfortunately offended an influential person in the capital. That noble sent people to cause trouble every day. The onlookers were all so frightened that they did not dare to come again, so Qirui Opera Troupe declined.”

“Why do I dare to say that no one in the Imperial Capital dares to cooperate with you? It’s because your play mapped Duke Lang. Duke Lang is even more terrifying than the noble Liu Qirui had offended. Who would dare to court death?”

Yu Niaoniao looked like she understood.

The courtyard door was pulled open from the inside and an old man with a haggard expression and a beard stuck his head out.

The moment he saw Zheng Changle, his expression changed.

“Why are you here again? I told you, even if I starve to death, I won’t sell the troupe to your Heavenly Oriole Garden!”

Yu Niaoniao looked at Zheng Changle beside her.

Zheng Changle touched his nose and explained in embarrassment.

“My father has always wanted to take over Qirui Opera Troupe, but Liu Qirui was unwilling.”

Seeing that Liu Qirui was about to close the courtyard door, Yu Niaoniao hurriedly reached out and blocked it.

“You’ve misunderstood. I’m the one who wanted to buy your theater today.”

Liu Qirui paused and looked her up and down, his eyes filled with suspicion.

“Aren’t you in cahoots with the Zheng father and son?”

After Zheng Changle’s introduction and Liu Qirui’s attitude, Yu Niaoniao had a preliminary understanding of how to talk to him.

Yu Niaoniao raised her smile and said sweetly.

“I originally planned to cooperate with Old Master Zheng, but I couldn’t accept his conditions. In the end, the cooperation didn’t succeed. Then, Zheng introduced me to you.”

“If it’s convenient for you, can you let us in to talk?”

When Liu Qirui heard that she had refused to work with Zheng Zaizhou, he immediately had a good impression of her.

“You can come in, but not him.”

He glanced at Zheng Changle.

Yu Niaoniao had a crossbow hidden in her sleeve to ensure her safety.

She turned to Zheng Changle.

“Okay, then I’ll get going. Be careful.’

After Yu Niaoniao entered the small courtyard, Liu Qirui immediately closed the courtyard door.

Zheng Changle turned around and was about to leave when he saw Wei Liao standing beside the carriage. He was leaning back against the carriage, arms folded, a lazy smile on his face.

“Did you really leave her here alone?”

Zheng Changle said, “It’s fine. Although Liu Qirui has a bad temper, he’s still a good person. He won’t bully Brother Yu.”

Wei Liao was used to thinking the worst of people.

He had never believed that there were people who were absolutely good in this world.

Hearing Zheng Changle’s words, Wei Liao sneered disdainfully.

“Heh, all businessmen are evil. Not many of you businessmen are good.”

Zheng Changle was so angry that his chubby face turned red. “How can you say that? To think I treated you as a brother!”

Wei Liao ignored him and walked straight to the courtyard door. Then, he used his movement technique to cross the wall and easily sneaked into the courtyard..
