The first performance of the Black Cat Opera Troupe in a new outfit was very successful, with decent and suitable clothes, wonderful singing, and wonderful plot. Even in the simple opera house, it still brought a wonderful opera performance to the audience. .

At the end of the performance, Vicky led the actors and actresses to the curtain call.

All the audience present stood up and applauded, and then stopped after a long time.

In the corner of the last row of the venue, a few under-looking audience members watched this scene with tears in their eyes.

"The leader's dream has come true, it's great." A young man said with a smile.

"Yes, it's a pity that it has nothing to do with us. If we could hold on for a while, now we can stand on the stage with them." A middle-aged man sighed lightly.

"Let's go, we should go back."

A few people lowered their heads, and slowly walked towards the door with the flow of people, their expressions somewhat lonely.

They had spent the most difficult time together, but became deserters before the dawn.

However, being able to watch their former partners stand on stage and perform the operas they used to rehearse together still made them cry.

"Since I'm here, do you plan to leave in silence like this?"

A group of people walked to the door and was about to leave, but a voice rang in front of them.

Everyone looked up and saw Vicky standing outside the door.

"Team leader," everyone shouted subconsciously.

Then everyone bowed their heads in shame, not daring to look directly at Vicky's eyes.

"How do you feel about the stage today?" Vicky asked with a smile.

"It's the best stage I have ever seen. Your performance is so intoxicating." The fourth child raised his head and said seriously.

The others also nodded. They were in agitated mood after watching the opera performance today.

Probably because of the addition of the costumes, I feel that everyone performed exceptionally today and gave a wonderful opera.

"I'm sorry, the leader, I didn't even say goodbye when I left." Abao lowered his head and said softly.

The other people also blame themselves, and they dare not look at Vicky's gaze.

They were all rescued by Vicky from a desperate situation. They marched towards the same dream, supporting and encouraging each other, but a few of them became deserters.

"I never blamed you for this. If you say goodbye to me, I still don't know how to persuade you to leave." Vicky smiled and looked at the crowd, "Go there, at least you still have food. I can only stay hungry without hope."

Everyone became more ashamed when they heard this.

"But it's different now. We have our own theater, we have new costumes, and we have audiences who can admire us. Moreover, we have food every day and every meal can eat meat." Vicky entered One step forward, watching everyone seriously said: "Come back, I need you, the Black Cat Opera Troupe needs you."

"Head!"

Everyone looked up, looking at Vicky in disbelief.

They thought they would be scolded and ridiculed by Vicky, at least they would not wait to see them as traitors, but did not expect the leader to let them come back? !

"Yes, come back fourth, Abao, and Xiaoqi. We are tired of playing the roles alone, and you are the only one who performs the best roles." Ibaka appeared beside Vicky .

"Come back, we need you." The black cat opera troupe who had not changed their costumes also came out from the side door, came to Vicky's side, looked at Abao and others and said.

"Everyone..."

The tears of Abao and others finally couldn't help falling.

The audience who was about to exit saw this scene, they also stopped one after another, and some people spoke to persuade them.

"Head, although we really want to come back, I am afraid we can't." A Bao wiped away his tears and shook his head.

The eyes of the fourth and other people were also a little bit sad.

"Why?" Vicky looked at Abao, frowning, "Pascal forced you to sign something?"

Abao looked at Vicky, hesitated for a while, and said guiltily: "When joining the Marca Opera, Pascal asked each of us to sign a contract. We must stay in the Marca Opera for three years. If we leave halfway, If you do, you will have to pay a penalty of 50,000 copper coins."

"Fifty thousand copper coins!"

Everyone in the opera troupe took a breath.

This is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for an opera company that has just embarked on the right path.

Even if there are a lot of spectators here tonight, but the ticket income is only three or four thousand copper coins. After deducting the expenses, it is estimated that the money that can be saved in a month will not be too much.

Abao and the eight of them, each of them has 50,000 copper coins, that is 400,000 copper coins.

Obviously, the current Black Cat Opera Troupe cannot afford it.

"Today you go back first. Tomorrow I will personally go to the Marca Opera Company to bring you back. You don't care about money." Vicky waved her hand and cut the line.

"But the leader..." A Bao was a little worried.

"Since you still call me the head, then do as I say, what kind of man is a mother-in-law." Vicky's eyebrows were raised coldly, and her momentum immediately came up.

A Bao only felt a cold in his neck, and subconsciously shrank his neck, not daring to say anything.

"Okay, don't block the door anymore." Vicky stood aside and let her way.

Everyone hurriedly stepped aside to keep the audience away.

……

Abao, they went back first, and the audience also left.

"Head, is the money really okay?" Ibaka looked at Vicky and asked, the money bag is already in her hand, "I haven't spent the salary I paid yesterday, or you can take it and make it together. ."

"Mine too. I ate a bowl of noodles and the rest are still there."

"I bought a dress, but it only cost thirty copper coins, and the rest is here."

Everyone took out their money one after another and handed them forward.

Vicky looked at the rag money bags in everyone’s hands with a smile on her face, reached out and pushed Ibaka back, then looked at everyone and said: "Money is not a problem, I can solve it. This money is everyone’s salary. I've collected them all, and I will pick them up tomorrow."

Everyone looked at Vicky, hesitated for a moment, and still collected the money.

The leader never deceives everyone, this is something everyone has a consensus.

Since she said there was no problem, there must be no problem.

"Tomorrow I will buy them some quilts, Xiao Qi is most afraid of the cold."

"I'm going to buy a floral dress for Xiao Qi, the little girl loves beauty the most, and I have been yelling about it many times in my dreams."

"The fourth child's clothes are also in bad shape. I will buy him a big cotton jacket tomorrow."

"If everyone comes back, then we can perform other operas. If we change the performance, the audience will definitely like it better."

Everyone was talking babbledly, and they had begun to look forward to a new life.

Vicky smiled, and suddenly thanked Mr. Hades for the choice she gave her today, so that she had the confidence to bring the members back.
