At noon, they had a meal of noodles, roast goose and old wine. They ate for an hour. Their bellies were full, and then they wandered leisurely in the street to eat.
Bailang didn't return to Qianfang and followed Zhou Dong around the streets all afternoon. The two seemed to have returned to the time they had a few months ago. But the things we talked about along the way were different from before. Especially the smile on Zhou Dong's face is even more meaningful.
Until evening, the two of them headed towards Yuhua Street.
"Frost Flower Tower."
Different from Qunxiang Garden, which Bailang had visited before, Shuanghua Building is the longest-standing flower building in Yongchuan City. It is located in the middle of Yuhua Street. The style of the building is a bit older, but you can also see that there are many decoration adjustments at the back. , trying to keep up with the style of the flower buildings built later on both sides.
"Let's go, why are you standing there?" Zhou Dong pulled Bailang with a smile, and then the two of them saw a gorgeous old bustard greeting him.
"Hey! Isn't this Uncle Zhou? I haven't been here for a long time! Is this Mr. Bai!? Ouch, the shop is in full bloom today."
To be honest, compared to the madam from Qunxiang Garden, the one from Shuanghua Shop was obviously too plump. Bailang smiled and didn't look at her too much. Zhou Dong even pulled Bai Lang and walked inside. He didn't like the Madam.
Last time, Zhang Wu made the arrangements. This time, Bailang followed Zhou Dong and truly experienced all aspects of arriving at Hualou.
From entering the house, to listening to Guisun's introduction, to deciding on the table or the guest room, and finally deciding on the girl and deciding in advance whether she will stay overnight or leave as soon as she's done.
The feeling given to Bai Lang is actually not particularly different from the romantic situation in another world. It's just that the gameplay on the scene is different, the essence is the same.
"Did you hear it just now? Ordinary girls and branded singers are in two completely different price ranges. And branded singers are divided into copper, silver, and gold, and the difference between them is even greater. It's outrageous. It's a luxury for people like you and me to be able to play a bronze medal singer. If you want to play a silver medal, you have to at least reach Liu She's level. Otherwise, even if you have money, you won't be able to get it. And Hualou deliberately selects its customers, and if they don't have enough status, they have many excuses to block people."
Zhou Dong was quite surprised when he first heard that Bailang wanted to inquire about Hualou at noon. I wonder if this kid has tasted the sweetness before and can't leave him? Are you going to hang out there every now and then? He is still ready to beat Bailang. After all, Bailang is different from a loner like him. There are two people at home waiting to be fed, and they have to get married, right? Gotta save money.
But when he asked Zhou Dong later, he realized that he seemed to have guessed wrong. Bailang's purpose was not to "play girls", but to be interested in the singer with a brand in the flower house, and it didn't seem to be "playing", it seemed that he had another purpose.
Of course, Zhou Dong would never think of the deal between Bai Lang and Huang Yi. He naturally guessed whether Bailang had seen a certain singer and had his true feelings moved.
Therefore, Zhou Dongdu joked about Bailang from time to time all afternoon.
Ordinary people may look down on the women in the flower house and think that they are useless. But the people at the knife shop don’t see it that way. In terms of "dirty", no one in the knife shop is clean, much dirtier than the women in the flower house. If you really look at it with the right eye, there will be little psychological conflict in ordinary concepts.
From this aspect, the people in the knife shop actually see things clearly.
Of course, many people in the knife studio actually have the same idea as Zhou Dong. One muddles along. He had killed so many people that his whole body stinked with filth, and he didn't want to leave any heirs for people to take revenge.
Bai Lang didn't think much about it at first. He simply felt that Zhou Dong was the closest to him and had the widest connections and knowledge. He hoped to learn some of the secrets in Hualou from the other party in private, so as to have a general direction for him to fulfill his promise to Huang Yi.
Zhou Dong's reaction was completely beyond Bailang's expectation.
Are you really interested in a singer? Bailang hadn't even met the other party yet, so what was he thinking? And although the last experience in the Flower House really made him feel physically and mentally comfortable, it was far more than just making him fascinated.
However, Bailang didn't explain much and let Zhou Dong's imagination go. Because Bailang suddenly realized that Zhou Dong's speculation had actually given him a reasonable excuse, making his subsequent actions less abrupt.
"so what should I do now?"
"You kid, you have to be that woman? She's a silver medal singer!" Zhou Dong shook his head, and then said: "First of all, you have to be rich. Whether it's to hire her or redeem her, it's a huge expense. , that’s not what we spend tonight, it’s calculated in gold pieces, at least ten gold pieces to start with!
The second is that Hualou is willing to let you go or to match you up. This can't be done with money. You need to find a way, and it needs to be a very tough way to be successful. Did you want to try with Mr. Liu before? There is no need to go looking for him. Although Mr. Liu is well-off and experienced in the knife shop, his face has no effect on Hualou’s fundamental interests. If you go to find Mr. Liu, it will embarrass Mr. Liu, and the gain outweighs the loss.
Of course, if you can take the path of Tongzuo Dao, you still have a good chance. Although Hualou has a strong background, they still have to give Zuodao face. But do you think you can take the road of Tongzuo Dao? "
"I'm afraid this is a bit difficult. But what about the City Lord's Mansion?"
"Huh? Bai Lang, you have connections with the City Lord's Mansion too! I almost forgot that you gave that idiot Zeng Fei some advice. This line should have led to the second lady of the City Lord's Mansion, right? This It's also an idea, but you can't expect the second lady to actually help you. Because behind the flower buildings are actually members of the city lord's house, and some flower buildings also have members of the eldest lady. If you are really capable, you can try this road."
After Zhou Dong made this move, Bailang's mind suddenly opened up. As long as the City Lord's Mansion and Hualou are indeed connected, then he has a way, at least a way to try.
When entertaining Zhou Dong, Bai Lang originally thought of calling him a bronze medal singer, but Zhou Dong looked disdainful and said that for the same money, he could call two or even three young girls from the flower house, twice or three times. Isn’t happiness more cost-effective than being a bronze singer? He immediately made Bai Lang stunned for a moment, and all he could think of was: You, the old snake skin, still know how to play!
Bailang was not idle either. With Zhou Dong's help, he also chose two girls from the flower house instead of choosing a bronze medal singer like last time.
That night Bailang really experienced what Zhou Dong said about being twice as fast. But if we really want to compare, he still likes the first time Bronze Singer. That kind of inner charm cannot be replaced by numbers.
In addition, Bailang also got some news when he came to Shuanghualou this time. That is, Shuanghualou will hold a song and dance on the first day of the next month, and "Red Sleeves", a Qing dance master from the capital, will be there to perform. At that time, all the singers in Shuanghua Tower will perform songs and dances to add to the fun.
