Meijiao Niang looked a little helpless when she heard this, and spread her hands: "The difficulty lies here. That Mr. Li said that no matter how much Mr. Bai bids today, he will pay a hundred taels of silver."
"Furthermore, with Mr. Bai's net worth, if the bid is too high, I'm afraid it will arouse others' suspicion and damage the reputation of our Zuixian Tower..."
Although the words were not finished, everyone understood the meaning.
Xin Yajun also knows that the most important thing for Lin Xi is reputation.
Anyone who breaks the rules he has set must get out of Zuixian Tower.
One of the original partners was kicked out by Lin Xi because he violated a taboo.
It is said that the man's official position is very high, and he also has a title, but even such a big shot can only eat coptis and swallow the pain by himself.
All this is because there are too many partners in Zuixianlou. If you pull out any one at random, he will be a top big shot, and it has become a cornucopia of money for many people.
After hearing this, Lin Xi looked at the two people below who were still scolding each other, and tilted her mouth indifferently.
"It's okay, let them scold him first. Anyway, Mr. Bai didn't fall behind, so let's just treat it as a show."
The old drunkard on the side also nodded and agreed: "That's right, that's right, it just so happens that Mr. Bai, your subordinate, can practice his eloquence so that he can be more flexible when he scolds people for you in the future."
Lin Xi chuckled evilly, but unexpectedly, Xin Yajun's cheeks were slightly red and she came forward with an embarrassed look on her face.
"Your Highness, you have misunderstood. The person wearing black clothes and being scolded is Mr. Bai."
"Gah~"
Lin Xi's cheeks twitched, her eyes widened and she asked, "What?"
Xin Yajun blushed and felt ashamed.
"Your Highness, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen. Please punish me..."
After hearing this, the old drunkard narrowed his eyes at the side, looked at Lin Xi with the wine gourd, and said in a deep voice: "Hey, brat, you two don't need to sing the double act here, this is your kid's trick again. "
Lin Xi was slightly startled after hearing this.
Xin Yajun also looked over in surprise, blinked her cute big eyes, and said aggrievedly: "Jiu Lao, you misunderstood, how dare this little girl play tricks on you!"
"Even if you borrow the courage of the slave family, the slave family will not dare to do it."
Hearing this soft-spoken explanation, the old drunkard couldn't bear the pitiful look. He rolled his eyes and turned around: "Little girl, you don't dare."
"But this kid doesn't dare to do anything. He just wants to force me to submit. There's no need to resort to such despicable tactics, huh."
Lin Xi's face darkened after hearing this.
He knew in his heart that if he wanted to keep the old drunkard, he couldn't use this method of coercion.
The trick I just set on this old guy was just a few words that he was willing to say. It's not considered coercion. It's just a joke.
But the current scene would be seen as overreaching and greedy in anyone's eyes.
"Bang~~~~"
The door was kicked open hard.
Looking at Lin Xi who was gradually walking away, the old drunkard raised his eyebrows and smiled.
In fact, he knew in his heart that Lin Xi would not do such a stupid thing, and Lin Xi also knew that the old guy was trying to provoke him.
They both knew each other well.
But you also have to express your attitude.
Xin Yajun looked helplessly at the old man and young man in front of her and sighed slightly.
The old drunkard took a swig of wine and said softly: "What's the matter? Are you feeling distressed? Can't bear to leave?"
"Little girl, are you scolding me for being petty in your heart?"
The beautiful girl smiled charmingly and reached out to hand over a plate of peanuts: "How could it be? Mr. Jiu, you are the elder, and you treat His Royal Highness as a relative, so how dare I, a little girl, criticize you?"
After Xin Yajun finished speaking, she looked towards the audience with a smile and glanced at the Minghua girl: "However, the little lady is very curious, why do you care so much about that Minghua girl?"
"Could it be that she is your descendant?"
The old drunkard squinted his eyes and looked at the peanut in his hand in surprise.
"What's the matter? Couldn't I just be attracted to her?"
A smile flashed in the beautiful girl's eyes, and she stretched out her hand to add a glass of wine for the old man.
"Please stop joking."
"Every time you come here, you just ask the girls to play a piece of music for you, and you look at them like red and pink skulls, unable to hide away."
"However, you were a little surprised after seeing her just now."
After hearing this analysis, the old drunkard raised his head with admiration and grinned.
"You girl, you are worthy of being trained by that boy."
"Yes, that little girl is very similar to an old friend of my husband, very similar..."
A trace of curiosity flashed in Xin Yajun's eyes. "Oh? But that person in the song?"
The old drunkard frowned, took a sip of wine, and his face turned red. He didn't know whether he drank too much or was shy.
"You little girl, why are you so curious?"
Xin Yajun covered her mouth and smiled when she heard this. No need to say anything, she already knew it by looking at the old man's appearance.
…
at the same time.
Lin Xi slowly walked down the stairs, holding on to the railing with one hand and carrying the wine bottle with the other. He glanced at the little maid next to him, then casually grabbed one of them and used it as his cushion.
The little maid was slightly startled, but looked at Lin Xi who was looking down, her face flushed, but she didn't resist.
…
In the lobby, on the high platform in front of the four attics, two young men were praising each other's families. The one being praised was blushing and sweating profusely.
Both sides also have many supporters. One wave is led by the young man in white, and all the students of the Imperial Academy are scholars.
Members of the other side are more complicated.
There are businessmen who are well-dressed in gold and silver and look good at money, and there are also playboys who are arrogant and look like they are not easy to mess with, and there are even a few generals and the sons of lords.
The two parties were quarreling so much that they were shouting at each other, and their words became dirty.
A fat man with a fat head and big ears, and a somewhat honest appearance, saw that he was at a disadvantage, so he rushed up to the high platform carrying a wine bottle.
"Du Xingwen, who did Nit Niang say was the fat guy?"
“Labour day, your grandma!”
There was a "pop~~~" sound.
The young man in white clothes named Du Xingwen was soaked in the shower, and his pure white robe was instantly wet.
If you look closely, this year should be the year of your birth year, because the pants are actually red.
"Pfft~" a sound.
Lin Xi couldn't hold it back anymore and spit out a mouthful of wine.
What a coincidence, it also sprayed on the chest of the little maid, making the little girl blush with embarrassment and become extremely charming.
Lin Xi sniffed slightly, raised an eyebrow and said, "Hey, this is a century-old wine, we can't waste it!"
The little maid's pupils shrank after hearing this, but she took a few steps back.
It stands to reason that high-class maids like them have the right to refuse unreasonable requests from guests, or even turn away and replace them with a group of lower-class maids.
After all, Zuixianju is not a traditional brothel.
Here, what is emphasized is the mood and artistic conception, and what is sold is the attraction, the plot, and even the story.
It's like Wu Song fighting a tiger.
There are several performers in the small theater next to it, and the one who plays is naturally Pan Jinlian.
Whenever a critical moment comes, the judges in the audience can compete to bid, and the one with the highest price wins.
Once you win the bid, you can choose whether to play Wu Song's part or Ximen Qing's part.
