Three days have passed since Su Yan arrived at his aunt's house.
"Indeed, we really can't beat the disheveled girls from the brothel next door and Wanhua Pavilion."
Su Yan, who had personally inspected Wanhua Pavilion, returned to Goulanli to find his aunt, and was convinced that her aunt was not lying.
The sister monks of Wanhua Pavilion are really enthusiastic, and because of some kind of secret method, they can gain a high degree of favorability at first sight like the nine-tailed fox. However, the consumption of Wanhua Pavilion is also quite expensive, and they collect souls. Stone!
From the moment you step through the door of Wanhua Pavilion, you will be charged a spiritual stone of one penny for half an hour. At the end, you will also be charged a tea and meal service fee when you leave.
Spiritual stone!
Those are the cultivation materials of the monks. Strictly speaking, they do not belong to the category of currency. In the world of cultivation, currencies made of gold, silver, and copper are the mainstream. Items traded with spiritual stones as currency are basically top-notch luxury items. It’s in the product category.
Spirit stones are different from conventional currency. Because the sizes of ores vary during mining, there is no standard for the regular shape of spirit stones. Therefore, spirit stones are converted in units of weight. In Xia Yu, one qian is equal to five grams.
The fee is one penny for half an hour, and one penny of spirit stones is enough for a monk in the Qi refining stage to breathe for two hours.
"I see you didn't lose money either!"
Seeing Su Yan's appearance, Aunt Chong Qiong burst out laughing and said, "Looking at you, it's quite hard to go shopping at the cultivators' shopping mall, right?"
When ordinary people go to Goulan, the girls in Goulan would usually tell their husbands not to do this. But seeing Su Yan’s messy clothes stuffed with banknotes and the pure white clothes stained with nuns’ rouge and gouache, Chong Qiong almost thought Su Yan was I went to work part-time at Wanhua Pavilion next door.
"What do you mean?"
Su Yan raised his hand with helplessness on his face, shrugged, and silver coins and copper coins fell out of his sleeves: "...I really spent money on the girl from Wanhua Pavilion, but when I came out, I met some Sisters and aunts, their faces were full of smiles, as if they were hiding a knife in their smiles, and they scared me so much that I didn’t dare to resist..."
The customers who can patronize Wanhua Pavilion are all monks without exception. With Su Yan's cultivation level during the Qi refining period, he can't even see through the cultivation level of those female cultivators. However, because they are stronger than Su Yan, they can At a glance, he could tell that Su Yan was not a human but a demon child.
If Su Yan hadn't been smart enough to tell her her aunt's name, she probably wouldn't have come back with banknotes all over her body, but would have gone to the Yamen to report the missing monster.
Yu Yanning really didn't lie to Su Yan. The cute demon child in Xia Yu's territory would really be abducted.
"But it's not like I didn't discover anything during this trip!" Su Yan said with confidence: "Their Wanhua Pavilion's business model is actually not much different from ours in Goulan, they just have the name of monks and fairies, they are just the same!"
Compared with the time consumption of Wanhua Pavilion, a night of fun at the Goulan run by my aunt is only three or five taels.
An ordinary inn clerk in Xia Yu's territory only earns one or two or five taels of silver a month. It is indeed unlikely that ordinary people would go to Goulan to spend money, but Goulan was originally positioned as a place for entertainment and recreation for some wealthy people.
The area of Xia Yu's main city is not smaller than that of prefecture-level cities in previous lives. Naturally, there are more than just my aunt's family in Goulan. There are also some private Goulan businesses operating as brothels in the name of Goulan.
This led to a lackluster business at my aunt's house, and the girls even wanted to commit suicide because they couldn't make any money.
The girls in my aunt's family are all guilty and cannot earn the reward money to offset the punishment of their crimes, so there is basically no hope of recovery.
"So? We don't care about meat. We are in the Ministry of Etiquette in name only." The aunt said with interest.
"So? So we want to make a lot of money, and the house is going crazy day by day. Who can bear it? I don't even have time to practice now!" Su Yan angrily scolded his aunt for her inaction:
"Auntie, please do something serious! Goulan is almost ruined by you!"
Whose family has the dream of a young man holding a sword in the arena, enjoying revenge and revenge? Su Yan also wants to practice quickly and become stronger, protect his ancestral bell, and one day mark the land of the Su family's nine-tailed fox clan, and tie the clan with hemp ropes. The elders hung them on the clan gates to warn the stubborn family members who wanted to hear the mixed-race bells!
Instead of working in the hook bar day after day, working as a psychiatrist for talented women who have experienced great changes!
"So much resentment..."
I don't know how old I am, but my aunt with a loli face made a pretty face like a yellow-haired girl, and said playfully: "Aren't aunt doing business now? Have you forgotten that we talk about our ideals every night before and after the moon?"
Su Yan suddenly became furious and said, "It's precisely because you, aunt, don't do anything serious that I need to stay up late every night to practice. I can't sleep for five hours a day. Who kind of demon kid would stay up late to practice like this!"
Chong Qiong responded to Su Qing's request and was not lazy when taking care of Su Yan. He really guided Su Yan to practice and taught him some homework every night.
Although Chong Qiong is not a nine-tailed fox or a dragon, and can't teach Su Yan the magical powers he is gifted with, such as the ability to control water and charm, Chong Qiong and Su Qing have lived together for hundreds of years. She knows some of the cultivation methods.
As for making a living, there is really nothing you can do about it. The demon clan is a type that is more accepting of death. They generally do not make promises easily, and they must abide by them.
Although the ownership of Goulan belongs to my aunt, it needs to be under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Etiquette. Naturally, the management cannot be as messy as those private black Goulan. Goulan should be an entertainment place for elegant literati and poets.
But from Su Yan's point of view, how much money can a bunch of poor people have? The girl is starving to death!
A bottle of local cannon and a plate of fennel beans for a whole day made me want to go out and try to attract customers myself!
"Okay, okay, aunt will work hard to help the girls turn around as soon as possible..." The aunt rolled her eyes and rested her elbows on the table, supporting her cheeks with her palms.
It's really hard to make money, but as long as she has business talent, she won't have to work with the imperial court to get a guarantee.
"By the way, my spiritual sense has detected that Xiaobai, Xiaojin, and Xiaoliu seem to be a little confused. You should go and comfort them! I will think about how to make a lot of money later... .It’s really not a problem for the family to be in a state of panic all day long.”
"Business has been driven away."
The aunt promised Su Yan that she would think about how to make money to feed the girls later, and also let the little fox go to the girls' dormitory to act cute.
"No need!"
Su Yan sighed and waved his hands in disinterest: "It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish..."
With that said, Su Yan stepped to the fourth floor window sill and raised his hand to signal his aunt to help him.
The aunt was stunned for a moment, then seemed to wake up, and shouted as she usually called Su Yan:
"It's not good! My little nephew thinks that my aunt has no ability to make money and is planning to commit suicide with his head snatched from the ground! My little fox nephew is planning to commit suicide by jumping off the building because he thinks that my aunt has no ability!"
The aunt's voice was really impressive, and the echoes in the cylindrical building echoed as soon as she spoke. The girls who were originally rehearsing on the lobby stage, as well as those who were resting in the dormitory, all heard it and ran out of the boudoir to check the situation. .
"Ah! What are you doing, little fox? Come down from the window sill quickly. It's very windy and it's easy to lose your footing!"
"Don't come here, don't come close. Unless you agree to my conditions, I will kill you today by hitting my head on the ground!"
