The first thing is that the entry fee is ten guan.
What is the entry fee? There is a detailed explanation above. It means that if you want to enter the Jiaofangsi door, you must first pay ten guans.
"Ten strings! This is just for entry. Madam Li, are you crazy about money? Ten strings is enough for me to visit any brothel, but you are here just for entry?"
Aunt Li was not afraid of this person's harsh questioning. She smiled and said, "This is the current rule of the Jiaofang Division."
"Bullshit rules, you're trying to steal money. It takes ten coins to get in. I'm crazy to say that I'm wasting money like this. Isn't it good to go to other brothels to have fun?" After saying that, he didn't dare to continue to pester at the door of Jiaofangsi. He left with his entourage cursing.
Grandma Li's face was a little stiff with anger, but she couldn't argue with him in front of everyone, so she still looked at everyone with a calm attitude.
The entry fee alone is ten dollars, which is really too high. This not only discourages ordinary people, but even some people who originally want to find out what is going on do not dare to step forward and stand still and watch.
Although what the playboy said just now was serious and seemed a bit arrogant, everyone had to admit that he was right in what he said. That is, "With this money, I might as well go to other brothels to have fun."
Grandma Li herself felt that the price was too high, but there was nothing she could do about it. It was decided by Han Du and she was not allowed to change it at all. Although it seems that Jiaofangsi can make more money in this way, if it can be deterred by the high price, wouldn't it scare away all the customers? Without customers, no matter how high the price is, you won't make a penny.
But Grandma Li could imagine that Han Du was determined to take the high-end route, and the high price was just to screen out people with spending power.
For people who can't even afford the tickets, Handu doesn't dare to expect them to be able to spend money in Jiaofangsi.
Just when everyone was lamenting that the price was too high, a man dressed as a businessman came forward and took out an invitation.
"This is Fu Yong."
Fu Yong handed over the invitation and then presented ten treasure notes.
Grandma Li's eyes only fell on the ten-guan treasure note. She stood there and forgot what to do for a moment. She really didn't expect that someone would actually be willing to pay ten-guan to buy a ticket so soon.
"Oh! Mr. Fu is outside, right? Please come inside." Grandma Li quickly put the invitation away.
With such a high price, there are actually people willing to pay to get in, which naturally attracts everyone's attention.
Facing the eyes of everyone focused on him, Fu Yong was confident and calm enough to respond to them one by one. The moment he stood here, he suddenly had some insights. He felt like there was something that would be of great benefit to him, but he just couldn't figure it out.
The young master who was about to leave with his entourage also turned around at this moment. Seeing Fu Yong standing at the door of the Jiaofang Division being watched by so many people, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable. He couldn't help but sarcastically said loudly: "You have to spend ten guan to buy the right to enter. This person must be a fool. Otherwise, who else would do this?" Spending so much money to buy a useless thing? From my perspective, this person is just a shill hired by the Jiaofang Secretary."
After saying that, he hurriedly left. His words would offend the Jiaofang Secretary. Having been warned by his father, he naturally did not dare to stay here for fear of being caught by the Jiaofangsi people.
Although the man is gone, the effect of his words is very great.
Someone had already seen Fu Yong paying, and they all started to get ready to make a move. However, these words stopped them from stepping forward again.
When Grandma Li saw this, she was naturally very resentful towards that person. Unfortunately, he had already disappeared, and he had no choice but to focus on the matter in front of him.
Taking the treasure banknotes from Fu Yong's hand, Grandma Li picked up one and returned the other nine, saying: "My master said, it's a great opening today. The first ten people who come in only need to pay 10%." Just the money is enough. This is Jiuguan, please keep it away, Mr. Fu."
Fu Yong smiled in surprise when he saw the nine-stringed treasure note coming back. Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected fortune, which seemed to be a good sign.
Others don't know who Han Du is, but Fu Yongke knows better. At least he knows something about the Baochao Jusi.
Last time, he earned hundreds of dollars by selling cotton to the Baoqiao Bureau. If Han Du hadn't come forward and bought their cotton on the spot, he would have been forced to ruin his family. How could he still have the happy life now?
Although the price of ten strings is high, it is not high at all compared to Han Du's help last time. Fu Yong originally wanted to repay Han Du's support for him, but he had thought that being the first to stand up would actually have such benefits.
The Chinese people are like, as long as there is one person in front who is watching, the people coming behind will follow and watch one by one. But once one person rushes forward first, the people behind him rush forward in unison.
Originally, when Fu Yong was the first to stand up, someone was ready to make a move, but was hindered by those words. Now that I have heard that the top ten have such benefits, what is there to hesitate about? Naturally, they rushed forward.
If you don't take advantage, you will suffer a loss. This is definitely what many people think. If a dollar falls on the ground, no one may be willing to bend down to pick it up. But you can get an egg for free in the supermarket. Look, some people are willing to wait in line for two or three hours just to get the egg.
That's the truth.
Aunt Li returned the treasure to Fu Yong and clapped her hands. A woman wearing a bright red robe appeared from the Jiaofang Department. She was equally well dressed and came out carrying a tray.
The woman's appearance was naturally not as good as that of Xiangxue and Yanxue, but her slender figure set off by her bright robe and exquisite make-up also amazed everyone outside the door.
The person in front of me is better than the oirans from the four major brothels. But in Jiaofangsi, she is just a plate-bearer. Although the plate she was carrying looked very high-end, no matter how high-end it was, she was just serving the plate.
Nanny Li turned around and took out a copper card from the tray at the door and handed it to Fu Yong. "This is Fu Yuanwai's voucher for entering the Jiaofang Division. Please take it."
Fu Yong took the copper card and looked at it with a smile. This copper card is extremely thin. When you touch the edge with your thumb, it feels like scratching your hand. Moreover, the writing on it is extremely clear. I don’t know how it was carved. In Fu Yong's opinion, with such craftsmanship, just such a small copper piece is worth a lot of money. And it only cost me one ounce to get in. Doesn't this mean that I got in without spending any money?
