When traveling in the world, apart from one's own strength, the most important thing is intelligence.
To kill people and seize treasure, you have to know where the "treasure" is.
For children to love each other, they also need to understand each other's family background and appearance.
Beichuan is such a large territory. If you want to control the overall situation, accurate and reliable intelligence is essential.
Since ancient times, brothels and wine shops have been the most well-informed places.
Let me reiterate, Gu Chi has no interest in NPCs. Really, he went to the brothel not for fun, but to do business.
Choose one of the two brothels and restaurants. With a charm value of 9.1, he must be the first to infiltrate the women.
You must know how to play to your strengths and advantages.
After a night of careful consideration, Gu Chi already had a relatively mature plan in his mind, which can be summarized in nine words -
"The Cultivation of Immortality Begins in the Brothel"
The next day.
Gu Chi asked the waiter about the location, chose a suitable time, and walked along the street to find it.
"Qing Huan Tower"
This is the only brothel in Jiangyan Town.
At this time, Gu Chi had changed his clothes.
The clothes sent by the system were too low-grade and not good-looking, so he went to a tailor shop to pick out a white canvas suit.
The placket and cuffs are red, the belt is embroidered with silver patterns, and a green jade pendant is hung.
The hair that grows automatically is tied up with a simple ribbon, leaving only a few thin strands of hair hanging down by the ears.
The simple, clean and elegant attire complements his handsome appearance, and his temperament is directly enhanced, showing off his charm value of 9.1 without reservation.
As soon as she stopped there, the girl at the door couldn't hold herself back any longer.
This was the first time for Gu Chi to see such a young madam.
The woman looked to be in her early twenties. She was in her prime and very beautiful. Her watery eyes were charming and her eyes could pull out hair. She crossed the threshold and took the initiative to meet Gu Chi. Arm, Jiao Didi said: "Master, you are here~"
The force in her hand was neither light nor heavy, so that no one would be offended, but the distance was close enough that one could truly feel her turbulent passion.
This is professional... Gu Chi thought.
The man who was about to enter the door widened his eyes: "Miss Shuiyue, don't you have rules in Qinghuan Tower? You can't go out to welcome guests?"
It is true that the women in Qinghuan Tower almost never go out to greet guests, or even take the initiative to solicit guests, but that is not a rule, it is just that they do not want to.
The word "rules" is just a euphemism.
"Master Sun, if ever you can have such a jade tree standing in the wind, with such majestic equipment, it would be a good idea for me to break the rules for you again." When Shui Yue said this, she kept staring at Gu Chi, with that tall and straight figure. The bridge of the nose and the eyebrows that look like paintbrushes... Wow, they are so attractive!
How could Mr. Sun not hear that Shui Yue was dissatisfied with his appearance? He pointed his fan at Shui Yue, his face turned red, and it took him a long time to hold back a few words: "You, you, you, you... you are superficial!"
"Ha, the Nu family is just superficial, what's wrong?" Shui Yue snorted and stopped paying attention to him. She looked at Gu Chi with charming eyes and said, "Sir, let's go in and chat?"
Gu Chi nodded: "Okay."
Mr. Sun was so angry that he wanted to catch up to Shuiyue Theory Ersan, but was stopped by another pretty girl at the door.
"Jinghua, get out of the way!" Mr. Sun said urgently, "I must have a good talk with her today!"
Jinghua covered her mouth and chuckled, the sound was like a wind chime: "Master Sun, you'd better come back after a while, I'm afraid that your body won't be able to bear it."
This time it's not against Mr. Sun, it's about the proper rules.
She and Shuiyue were not madams, and they were not standing at the door to solicit customers, but to identify people.
The same guest must enter and exit Qinghuan Building twice at least half a month apart. If there is a difference, no matter how much money is given, they will not be allowed in.
Gu Chi also quickly understood that what Jinghua said was "too much to bear" was truly too much to bear.
The two of them talked all the way to the private room.
We chatted for a while.
After having a few drinks, Shuiyue, who was already fascinated by the beauty, became even more excited. It was not yet evening, so she couldn't wait to close the curtains.
After a few flowers and candles, I wanted to take off my clothes and put them into the warm tent.
Shuiyue's blushing face was charming and her voice was even softer: "Young Master~"
Gu Chi: "Miss Shuiyue, wait!"
Shuiyue: "Huh?"
Gu Chi: "You haven't asked me my name yet."
Shui Yue was stunned for a moment, then realized what he was doing and gave Gu Chi a wink: "Could it be that Young Master wants Shui Yue to call Young Master by his name?"
That's not necessary... Gu Chi said, "You ask first."
Shui Yue followed what he said, blinked and said, "I am a humble servant, are you lucky enough to know the young master's name?"
Gu Chi: "Gu Yuan."
He used his real name first.
Shuiyue's eyes were slightly lowered, her eyes were watery, and she didn't know where she was looking. She just praised: "Young Master's name is really great."
Gu Chi: "..."
You'd better be saying names.
[Reputation +1]
Gu Chi looked at the list and saw that he was still at the bottom, but his score was no longer 0 but 1.
It can be seen that reputation is indeed part of the score.
"Young Master, I have already written down your name." Shuiyue exhaled like a blue breath. As she spoke, her clothes slipped off, revealing her bright white shoulders. The two tiny red ribbons at the collarbone were particularly eye-catching, as if they only needed a slight hook. You can make this room face the sea and enjoy the warmth of spring.
Gu Chi: "Miss Shuiyue, no matter how slow you are!"
Shuiyue: "Huh?"
Gu Chi: "I have a few questions to ask Miss Shuiyue."
At the moment of beauty, Shui Yue was very anxious, but she was afraid that she would not make Gu Chi happy, and Gu Chi would not make her happy later, so she could only hold back her hot emotions and said, "Master, please ask, Shui Yue will definitely tell you everything."
Tell everything you know?
Then Gu Chi is not polite.
From the sect's court to the people's livelihood, as well as the cultivation system, current news, currency exchange rates, relationships between sects, etc., Gu Chi asked about everything he could think of.
He didn't expect Shuiyue to answer all the questions, but Shuiyue's performance exceeded his expectations.
He's come to the right place.
Qinghuanlou is not just a brothel, they are also one of the nine top forces in Beichuan, with chain stores throughout the Qianyuan Kingdom.
Even the well-informed Gu Chi had to express his admiration for this.
Previously, he had always believed that there were two types of brothels, one was the Qing brothel, and the other was the red brothel. The former recited poems and composed poems, while the latter traveled around. Most of them had a mysterious organization hidden behind them. They either killed people alive or collected intelligence. This is what Gu Chi came for.
Now there is a third type - they are directly a large sect that is exposed on the surface.
The whole sect of Qinghuan Tower is made up of women, and monks account for more than 50% of them. The exercises they practice will absorb male yang energy and longevity, but not much, usually ten days' worth.
And because the girls in Qinghuan Tower are all charming, knowledgeable in music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and are proficient in playing, playing, and singing. If you pick any one of them, they will not be inferior to the best in other brothels. Therefore, many people are still willing to do it even though they know that they will lose themselves in this matter. A frequent visitor to Qing Huan Tower.
Fairies die under flowers, and they are also romantic as ghosts.
One is willing to fight and the other is willing to endure.
In addition, the currency used among practitioners is also silver.
No large mineral veins have been found in Beichuan so far. There are spiritual stones and jade, but very few. They are all used by major sects for cultivation, and there is no excess for trading and circulation.
Qinghuanlou's business is not a loss at all. It kills two birds with one stone, not only improves the cultivation level, but also makes money.
These things are not secrets. After a little inquiry, you will know that Shuiyue said it as he said it, and it doesn't interfere with anything.
The only thing that Gu Chi didn't tell Gu Chi was that it was difficult for the women in Qinghuan Tower to live without men. They had to practice double cultivation at least once every ten days, otherwise their cultivation would stagnate, and they would even regress after being empty for a long time. Today happened to be water. It was the tenth day of the month, so when she saw Gu Chi, she was so excited that she couldn't extricate herself.
No wonder Shuiyue couldn't control it.
Putting aside the potential impact of 9.1 glamour.
For the women of Qinghuanlou, the happiest thing is to meet someone they like to help them practice.
It's like someone gets under the computer desk to play games with you, and you enjoy it while you score points. Who can refuse?
Gu Chi asked so many questions, which undoubtedly proves that he is also a "practitioner".
So Shuiyue looked at Gu Chi with even more intense eyes.
Good fellow practitioners, not only are you in good health, but you don’t have to worry about your longevity. One innate life-nourishing pill can be used hundreds of times!
Shuiyue's face was like a peach blossom, and she couldn't help but want to eat this man into her mouth.
"Sir, have you finished asking? Then we..."
"etc."
Gu Chi said: "There is one last thing."
Shuiyue: "Master, please tell me."
Gu Chi: "I didn't bring any money."
Shuiyue: "..."
…
