Isn’t it said that the country is in dire need? Isn’t it about recuperating and recuperating with the people?
Why are you so rich? Thousands of people don't even blink. The gap between the rich and the poor is too big!
This sentence is the truest feeling of the self-proclaimed scholar here.
An hour passed very slowly, but in this atmosphere, I didn't feel the passage of time at all.
Originally it was still a competition for the top 30, but later on, other people in the building seemed to realize and began to fully support a girl.
The oiran battle has thus evolved into a ranking battle on the sixteenth floor.
Under the various asshole transactions, the girl with full support was able to ride ahead and leave behind several streets.
As time goes by, this financial competition gradually comes to an end.
When the list was no longer updated, everyone, including the wealthy businessmen, breathed a sigh of relief. The empty wallets made these wealthy businessmen stunned for a moment, but only for a moment, and then they felt a deep sense of satisfaction.
It is an honor to be able to participate in this grand event and contribute one's own efforts to it.
If the money is gone, it doesn’t matter. You can make more money.
What you want is this sense of satisfaction.
"My lords, sir, thank you for your support. Now we will have the final competition of the Oiran, which will be presided over by the Marquis of Medicine himself. Please come to the square by the river to witness this exciting moment."
"Everyone, please."
The words of the boy on the stage brought everyone who had just recovered back to reality.
If others or the stewards on the 16th floor say this, most people may not be moved at all and will not move away from staying here.
But the Marquis of Ming Dynasty personally presided over it, so he had to weigh it carefully.
On the one hand, the identity of the Marquis is one thing, but Zheng Xiong is also considered a legend.
He found a new path from the pharmacy and became a champion for some time inexplicably. Although it is controversial, it is enough to attract attention.
Later, he became a medical prince. No one said anything about this. He was just a scholar. In just a few years, he achieved this position. His title was higher than that of Lord Cheng, who dominated the world. No one wanted to make friends with such a legendary figure. It’s a worthwhile trip to pay homage.
Not to mention Zheng Xiong personally hosting it.
So, no surprise, no one stayed in the building, and they all headed towards the square.
Zheng Xiong seized the time and brought the girl group carefully created by Jiaofangsi to the banks of the Qinhuai River.
Zheng Xiong walked in the forefront in official uniform, followed by the four guardians, and behind them were the well-dressed girls from the Jiaofang Secretary and a group of musicians.
In front of the team was the street cleaning team formed by the Soldiers and Horses Division, and on both sides were the accompanying troops sent by the Soldiers and Horses Division to protect them.
A large group of people walked along the river and slowly headed towards the square.
People along the way gave way and saluted.
Only after they were able to leave did anyone dare to whisper.
"Is this the Medical Marquis? He is indeed young, and he came here on foot. He is so approachable!"
"Don't be poor. I admire you so much. Just hurry up and follow."
"Yeah."
Along the way, the team gradually grew.
When we arrived at the square, there was already a sea of people in the square, and with the large group of people following Zheng Xiong, it was already quite crowded.
As for Zheng Xiong's arrival, everyone in the square also noticed it. Seeing that Zheng Xiong was here, everyone fell silent.
Then everyone in the square seemed to be unified, and there was a roar of mountains and tsunami.
"Greetings to the Marquis."
This is the smell of power, and it is indeed intoxicating.
Zheng Xiong gestured with his hands.
"You don't need to be polite."
"I am here today just to act as a referee and decide who will be the oiran."
"You know the list by heart, so I won't say more. Next, I will arrange it. You can do whatever you want. I will give you two quarters of an hour to help in the square. Once the time is up, all the data will be tallied and the decision will be made. Produce a courtesan."
There are still variables, especially the girl who basically sealed the victory, and I feel even more upset.
However, when someone waved the banknotes and tried to sprint, they were blocked.
"The Marquis has an order. During this period, we will only strive for popularity, not financial resources."
After learning about this situation, the girl at the top of the queue breathed a sigh of relief.
There is a big gap between me and the second person in terms of wealth support. I may be less popular, but the gap in wealth alone is prohibitive. After a rough calculation, I am still number one, and there is still half an hour left to gain popularity. How can I pull it back?
The first lady was relieved.
Zheng Xiong is also making final arrangements to launch the girl group he created. He has even thought of a name for their debut, and they will call it Sweet Honey Group.
After gathering my divergent thoughts, I saw the painted boats docked on both sides of the river gradually moving towards the middle.
After parking, the second floor deck of each ship was connected and fixed with wooden planks, connecting the sixteen ships into a whole.
A platform floating on the river and spanning both banks was formed.
The time is just right. By the time the construction is completed, two quarters of an hour will have passed.
Zheng Xiong did not participate in the following statistics, and he believed they could do well.
Even if you don't do it well, it's okay. If you have any objections, there's nothing you can do about it. After all, there is no unified standard, and Zheng Xiong doesn't want to worry about it.
Zheng Xiong walked slowly along the wooden plank extending to the shore, and stepped onto the second floor deck of the boat.
The second floor is slightly shorter than the two sides, which is just right.
There is something to reinforce it, so people don't feel swaying when walking on it.
Maybe Boss Cao’s iron-locked Hengjiang feels like this!
The guards sent by the Jiaofang Division and the Military and Horse Division followed closely behind, still very stable.
The only thing that can be felt is that the entire hull of the ship has sunk a little, making it a little shorter than the two sides.
After the troops from the Military and Horse Division got on board, they spread out in all directions to provide warning.
The musicians were distributed on both sides with their musical instruments, while the ladies from the Jiaofang Division came down from the second-floor deck to the first floor one by one, holding round fans, waiting to be dispatched.
Zheng Xiong didn't stay up there too long. Taking advantage of the statistics time, he also went down to the small room on the first floor to stay with the ladies.
The movement here also attracted a lot of attention.
I have doubts and don’t understand what Zheng Xiong means by bringing so many stunning women here.
There are also droolers.
The exquisite figure set off by the cheongsam makes people imagine.
Not long after, the final statistical results were officially released.
The oiran who was ranked first was unfortunately overtaken by the one who was ranked second.
Although the proportion of the popularity item occupies a small space, and although the wealth contributed by the two supporters is a bit large, it is not indispensable.
The moment Zheng Xiong appeared, perhaps the results were skewed.
Zheng Xiong was born in the imperial examination, and his poetry was even more outstanding in the early Ming Dynasty.
The medical marquis and the powerful governor of the third grade are destined not to be ignored.
Those who wanted to take shortcuts, those who wanted to show off in front of Zheng Xiong, and many who had not participated in the competition all contributed poems, hoping to have their names engraved on the list.
In ancient times, what literati wanted was publicity, otherwise no one would know about you.
How did Liu Bowen get his reputation as a child prodigy? He relied on tap water. Don’t be kidding.
There is such a stage that no one will ignore.
