MTL - Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner-Chapter 8 0 Oldway
"Master, Ejid has already promised to do things for you. Now he is reciting the manuscript you gave him. After he has memorized it, I will bring him over to see you!" Pascal respectfully reported to Tangning Hui.
"Well, you did a good job in this matter. This is your reward!" After speaking, Tangning threw him a small wad of money.
Then he asked, "Can you help me find another female slave like this, but this time my requirements are higher!"
At this moment, he is holding the reward he just got, so Pascal's nature is very high: "No problem, master, tell me, I promise to help you find it!"
Tangning waved her hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry to make a promise, you should listen to my request first and then talk about it. First of all, this female **** must be that skinny and petite, she looks very pitiful; then she must be able to perform, such as When narrating your tragic past, you should cry and feel very distressed; third, it is best to be a little more beautiful, so that the feeling of pity and distress can appear more naturally..."
Before Tangning could finish speaking, Pascal shook her head and replied, "Master, there is absolutely no way that such a thin and frail female slave would die of illness on the ship that came to New Orleans, unless she was specially prepared to give her to New Orleans. Maid-type black female slaves purchased by big customers like the master, but such female black slaves have no chance to contact them at all, let alone kidnap them.”
Tangning thought about it for a while and felt that Pascal was right. She just used the crowded way on a slave ship. If her body was too close to being able to resist, she still needed such a pitiful person in her own plan. Seeing the pitiful female slave, why don't you go to the harem of each slave owner to find it? But in that case, firstly, she couldn't deceive the black slaves who lived with her on a plantation, and secondly, she had never worked in a factory, so it would definitely not work well, after all, they were not real actors.
Tangning struggled with this question for a long time, until at lunch, Caroline cautiously suggested to him, "Master, can you take us to Broadway tonight?"
When she heard the words "Broadway", a light flashed in Tangning's mind. Yes, since I couldn't find a suitable candidate among the real black slaves, I might as well just hire a fake black slave. ? If I can't find someone who can perform, then why don't I hire an actor? I can't believe there isn't even a single black actor on such a big Broadway!
And at this time, he was surprised to find that the name of Broadway, which sounds like a drunken fan, is actually a transliteration of "BROADWAY"...
Thinking of a solution to the problem, Tangning was naturally very happy, so she happily said to Caroline, "No problem, I'll take you there tonight, but now I have to go out!"
Although the North and the South were at odds at the time, it didn't mean that there was no personal friendship between the two sides. For example, Frick had an old friend in New York. Before Tangning came, he explained that if there was any problem that could not be solved, he could go to him for help.
So Tangning immediately went to visit this Mr. Bradley. Seeing Tangning's handwritten letter from Frick to her, Bradley politely asked Tangning, "Mr. Tangning, what do I have? Can I help you?"
"Mr. Bradley, do you have any friends on Broadway?" Tangning asked.
Bradley thought about it for a while, then replied, "Well, you do have a few friends. Why do you want to invest in building a theater?"
Tangning waved her hands again and again, "I don't know anything about drama, so I don't dare to invest in this field casually. I want to hire a Broadway actor, but I don't know the rules in this area, so I want to ask for your help!"
"Oh, then which actor do you want to hire?" Bradley asked curiously.
"I don't have a goal yet. I just want to find an actor who meets my requirements." Tangning then repeated her requirements.
Hearing this, Bradley finally understood: "Oh, I see, you want to hire a black actress to act for you, right?"
Tangning nodded and replied, "That's right, that's what it means. There should be black actresses on Broadway, right?"
"It should be possible, but it's hard to say whether you want to help you in this kind of play! In this case, I'll ask someone to ask you, where do you live now?" Bradley replied with some embarrassment road.
"Then please Mr. Bradley, I am staying at the XX Hotel, you can send someone to inform me when there is news, and please rest assured, as long as there is a suitable candidate, I will definitely pay the price here. You are satisfied!" After speaking, UUkanshu www.uukanshu.com Tangning said her goodbyes and left.
What he didn't expect was that this Mr. Bradley was quite fast. Within two hours, he sent someone to inform him that he had found a suitable actress, and said that the actress would meet tonight. Played a role in "Silver King" at XX Theater, so ask him to go over to see her performance and image to see if it meets his requirements.
So Tangning took Caroline and Isabelle to Broadway that night.
Walking down Manhattan's 6th Avenue, Tangning sighed to herself, it would be inconvenient to live without electric lights. It would be so beautiful if it turned into a dazzling night scene. Fortunately, her most important purpose in coming to New York this time. Just to bring light to all mankind!
Seeing Tangning's strange appearance, Caroline asked curiously, "Boss, what are you thinking about?"
"Oh, I'm thinking about how to make Broadway more beautiful!" Tangning replied casually.
"Boss, have you been to Broadway before?"
Tangning shook her head and replied, "I've been to Bainaohui quite a few times, but this is the first time I've come to Broadway!"
"Where is Bainaohui?"
"You don't need to ask about this, anyway, it's a very magical place!" Tangning said casually.
PS: In fact, Broadway's business model is commercial performances for the purpose of profit. If the show is popular with the audience, it will be added; if the audience does not like it, it will be replaced immediately. Therefore, the vast majority of Broadway shows are suitable for all ages, and there are not too many controversial content, such as religion, politics and adult intimacy.
After 1950, there was "OFF-BROADWAY".
