Such conversations are naturally fruitless. [No pop-up novel website] However, Lin Ming felt that he had at least connected with his sister-in-law, and he did not reject Lingao's proposal, which meant that he could do something about it. As long as you maintain a certain amount of contact, you might be able to convince her to change her mind.
Lin Ming saw that he could not convince his sister-in-law for a while, so he made a long-term plan. Li Yongxun was promised to be "safe and sound" in Lingao and would not participate in any anti-Kun actions.
"There is a group of people operating in Lingao recently, most likely sent by the government." Li Yongxun told him quietly, "Although it has been cracked, the main person has not been captured. This person should still be operating in Lingao. You have to be careful. "
For Lin Ming, "his own people" are now much more dangerous than "thieves".
"I understand. You have to be careful yourself," Lin Ming instructed.
"Well, don't worry."
The two agreed on a new password when they needed to meet. In addition to the movie theater, Li Yongxun told him two other places to meet, so that no one would notice that Li Yongxun visited the movie theater too frequently.
The day after the date between Li Yongxun and Lin Ming ended. Xin Nachun walked into a "teahouse" outside Nansanpaohuan in Dongmen City.
This is already the "suburb" of Dongmen City. Although the roads are neatly repaired and the street lights and street trees are fully equipped, there are very few houses along the street and not many houses under construction with scaffolding. Many areas are still farmland, vegetable gardens and wasteland. Occasionally there are still a few deserted graves that have not been moved away. There are some simple huts or sheds built here and there on the wasteland waiting to be sold, and some people are running small businesses below.
Although it is already outside the third ring. But the economic boom that spread throughout Lingao also brought it here. The large influx of industrial and agricultural people around Dongmen City has also boosted the market here, although the market is not large and there are few shops. But there are also people coming and going, and it's quite a prosperous scene.
The "tea house" that Xin Nachun walked into was a newly built two-story building. When walking on the first floor, there were square tables and benches. The wooden counter was lined with wine bottles and piles of wine and cold dishes. Large porcelain basin. Water signs filled with names of dishes and snacks hang high on the wall. There is a wooden sign next to it: "Military Designated Teahouse".
The so-called "military designation" generally refers to state-owned or private commercial service organizations that have been certified by the Fubo Military Joint Logistics Headquarters and can provide various life services to military soldiers. As a complement to military cooperatives. To obtain certification, certain standards must be met in terms of product and service quality. We must also give certain discounts to military personnel. However, the benefits are also obvious: Fubojun's soldiers are well treated and have high spending power, making them a customer group that can provide stable consumption. Get this certification. It is equivalent to the Senate's recognition of the quality of their own stores, which will increase their appeal in the market.
It is said to be a tea house, but in fact its main business is not "tea", but catering and hotels. This will not be a meal. There were not many people on the first floor. Several guys gathered around a table. Newly delivered shellfish are being cleaned, shrimps and crab meat are peeled off, and ingredients for the evening are being prepared.
"Miss Xin is here. You are a rare visitor recently. Many people are saying: Without you, miss, the spring scenery here has been reduced a bit." As soon as the waiter saw her coming in, he came up to her with a cheerful face. Xin Nachun is a "frequent customer" here - in addition to providing catering services for military personnel, the military-designated teahouse also has another main business: "gun room". More than ten small rooms upstairs are used for this purpose.
According to the provisions of the Public Security Law, prostitutes can only "accept business" in the entertainment business area and designated call stations. For yellow-ticket prostitutes. They do not have houses provided by brothels, and it is prohibited by law to operate at home - not to mention that many of them do not have a home at all. Most of them stayed in large rooms in hotels - teahouses that provided catering and "workplaces" came into being.
You can legally "do business" here, and the teahouse not only provides rooms, but also "shower rooms." The teahouse does not take profits from it - this is prohibited by the public security law - it obtains profits from the services it provides: in a social situation like Lingao where the gender ratio is seriously imbalanced, and young and middle-aged men make up the majority, for sex/ The profits from trading/providing services are very considerable.
This tea house has made a particularly large profit from it. Fubo Army soldiers will choose "military designated" teahouses with discounts when they leave the military camp for vacation to meet their physiological needs.
Soldiers are all young and middle-aged. With adequate nutrition supply and year-round training and labor on duty, their bodies are strong and strong. It is not surprising that they have strong demand. They are different from ordinary naturalized citizens. They have to spend many years of military career in the military camp. Except for officers, the possibility of soldiers and sergeants getting married is almost zero. Buying sex has become the main solution to physiological needs.
The business of prostitutes with yellow tickets also picked up. Xin Nachun "does business" at the escort station in this area on weekdays. The soldiers stationed in the nearby guard camp are her main "customers".
Xin Nachun was young and "romantic", and his business was very good, so he took care of the most business in this tea house. The clerks would go out of their way to cater to such a "popular person". As for her being a "non-national", few people here care about her.
"Spring beauty is nothing," Xin Nachun said angrily, "I have flowers on my butt, do you want to enjoy the spring beauty?"
The guy was well-informed and naturally knew about Xin Nachun's torture. Seeing her mentioning it on her own, the clerk said with a smile: "Miss Xin, you are bound to be blessed after a disaster. Look, this is a little thought from the store to comfort you!" After that, someone took out a small bag from the counter. Here comes the porcelain bottle.
"This is a new release from Runshitang..."
Before he finished speaking, Xin Nachun laughed and said: "It's not a serious thing after all, but is it an aphrodisiac to seduce men?"
"Where, where," the waiter said with a smile on his face, "Why does the girl need this thing? This is the Sanbai pill recently released by Runshitang. It is the best for blackening and whitening. It is said to be good after using it. Our shop has always been under the care of the girl. The girl has suffered this time, so this little thought can be regarded as everyone’s condolences.”
Xin Nachun has been wandering on the streets all year round, and his skin color is originally darker. Since ancient times, whiteness has been regarded as beauty. A fairer complexion will naturally make "business" easier.
Although she knew that this was just the teahouse trying to please her for business purposes, she was still a little touched that someone could still think of her after being tortured.
After receiving fifty lashes, Xin Nachun was locked in the shackles at the door of the police room on Heyuan Street for three days. He had torture wounds on his buttocks - even though the prison office would provide him with sore medicine as usual, it was not an elixir that would heal immediately - and he had to endure the ridicule and teasing of passers-by. I endured the pain like this for three days. It took more than ten days for the wound to be fully recovered after I returned to the lower place. The scar was still itchy from time to time. But she has already gone out to "do business". She was so eager to go out to do business. On the one hand, she had to quickly discuss the situation with her boss. Secondly, she had to pay the custom tax this month - the consequences of tax arrears in Lingao were very serious.
A fixed tax and social security tax are levied from self-employed prostitutes. People like Xin Nachun who are "without family responsibilities" have to pay about half of their monthly income in taxes every month, sometimes even two-thirds. This is obviously a big burden for her.
The reason is that the skin and flesh trade here is very prosperous, and the good social order and large number of consumers make the revenue of prostitutes very high. But for the Senate, the custom industry is just a relief valve and financial supplement for the current society. It can exist, but it is not the direction of development.
For a political system based on industrial technology, if a young woman lies down and spreads her legs, she can get a much higher income than the hard-working female workers in the factory. This will inevitably cause a change in social atmosphere and induce a considerable number of people to When young women embark on this path, the original industrial manpower will be transferred to the tertiary industry - Dongguan in another time and space is a typical example.
For the Senate, which is seriously short of manpower, manpower is the most valuable asset. Although the Senate in this time and space has not taken measures to suppress the tertiary industry, reduce consumption, and force accumulation, the sex/industry is obviously not an industry worthy of stimulation and encouragement.
Therefore, the main purpose of taxation is to use tax means to adjust and maintain the income level that is almost the same as that of ordinary female workers. Similar considerations apply to the imposition of social security taxes. Fang Jinghan once conducted a sociological survey on the income and consumption of local prostitutes, and concluded that the savings rate of prostitutes is very low. When they get older and find it difficult to maintain their prostitution business, they will easily fall into trouble. The government is bound to need to come forward to provide elderly care, not to mention that the current mandatory free physical examinations and sexually transmitted disease treatment consume social resources, so it is natural to levy additional security taxes on them.
Xin Nachun joked with the waiter for a few words, then went upstairs alone. She was summoned from the escort station by a man using a note. It was an ordinary thing for her and the tea house.
The stairs up are a corridor, with windows on one side and a row of rooms separated by wooden boards on the other. At the bottom of the corridor are shower rooms and toilets, which are very clean. It's afternoon now, and there's no one on the second floor, so it's quiet. Xin Nachun walked along the corridor to the last room, raised his hand and knocked on it three times, then listened and knocked three more times.
A deep voice came from the room: "The door is unlocked, come in."
Xin Nachun pushed the door and it opened. She dodged through the door and locked it behind her back.
The room was dark with bamboo curtains drawn. However, for an old customer like Xin Nachun, she knows what the room looks like without looking at it: an "Australian king bed" that is so simple that it has almost no style - it doesn't even have to be painted; tables and chairs of the same style, There are teapots and teacups on the table.
