Li Qing suppressed his anger and secretly cursed himself for being hopeless. He had just started and he almost couldn't hold it back. It was a waste of ten years for him to practice in the mountains.
There are all the good-looking things in there, and it’s not like I don’t have any money in my pocket. Not to mention finding an oiran, at least he has to be a top one, right?
Li Qing pushed the girl on him away without hesitation, "I'm sorry, you are very nice, but I want to find someone better."
"You..." The woman's plump breasts rose and fell violently, her silver teeth clenched, and she was no longer as charming as before, "I think you don't have money, I'm not too generous to serve you."
After that, she glared at him bitterly, twisted her butt and turned around to leave.
Li Qing touched his nose and felt a little dumbfounded. This is really a ruthless bitch and a senseless actor!
The Zuixian Tower at night is completely different from the day. The door behind the lobby is wide open, and there are tables next to each other in the long courtyard. Lanterns are hung high. There are three or five "decent people" in well-dressed clothes sitting on their laps. Pretty girls, flirting and drinking, living in a state of intoxication.
The rich man sat at a table alone, and there were more than one girl, surrounded by birds and birds, and they indulged in sex.
This should be the so-called flower-drinking bar... As Li Qing walked and looked at it, he couldn't help but sigh: "The ancients still knew how to play."
The common people live a miserable life, but the powerful do not suffer at all.
Li Qing had a beautiful face and graceful appearance. He met many women who approached him along the way. Their appearance and figure were all acceptable, but he rejected them one by one.
He firmly believes that there is something better out there!
Zuixianlou is indeed one of the best restaurants and brothels in the capital. Along the way, I didn't see any ugly ones. Their looks were slightly unsatisfactory, and their figures made up for it.
It’s really valuable!
"Master, stay."
At the end of the inner courtyard, in front of a luxuriously decorated two-story building, Li Qing was stopped.
The boy said politely, "Master, please show me the admission ticket."
Li Qing was startled. He didn't expect that there was a 'membership system' in this era. He looked up at the small building in front of him. It covered an area of about an acre. It was much smaller than the facade of Zuixian Building, but it was very gorgeous.
The pillars are made of whole high-quality mahogany, the doors and windows are extremely exquisite and elegant, the roof is made of excellent glazed tiles, and red lanterns are hung from top to bottom, showing luxury.
Li Qing knew that the best things were here, and he had come here, so naturally he couldn't go back like this.
Touching his pocket, Li Qing stiffened up and asked, "How much does the admission ticket cost?"
The waiter replied: "There is no charge for admission, but you have to spend five hundred taels in the restaurant."
Li Qing cursed secretly: "Mother, come back another day."
He turned around to leave, but heard the boy say again, "Young master, if you want to go in, you can buy a disposable one."
"How much?"
"Three taels."
Li Qing paid the money happily, took the 'temporary membership card' and walked inside.
The small building is bright and bright, with wing rooms on both sides, leaving a large open space in the middle. There is a platform in the middle, covered with gauze tents, and sitting inside is a slender woman.
It's hazy and the appearance can't be seen clearly, but it adds to the mysterious beauty, making people want to lift the mysterious veil and take a look.
The woman is playing the piano, and the sound of the piano is clear and sweet, like a trickling stream flowing in the heart.
He found an empty seat and sat down, listening to the music and looking around. There were not many people in the room, only forty or fifty people, all well-dressed, listening to the music of the piano quietly. It was very quiet.
Li Qing scratched his head, why was this different from what he thought?
There are so many people working on it, and not one person is enough!
Spend three taels of silver just to listen to music?
Li Qing felt a huge loss. Although he talked about listening to music, in his heart he also wanted to be polluted by the world of mortals.
When he lowered his head and saw fruits, snacks, and fine wines placed on the table, he immediately started eating and drinking without caring about the scenery.
The table next to me on the right gave me an unkind look, as if I were at a concert and someone was screaming in front of me.
Li Qing stared back at the man and continued to eat and drink, at least to get his share of the late night snack.
A quarter of an hour later, the sound of the piano stopped. The woman stood up and bowed to everyone, then put on a gauze hat and went up to the second floor. Then, a woman in her thirties walked onto the stage, her face full of philistine.
"Young masters, if you want to be Miss Wanling's guest, you must seize the opportunity. The bidding begins."
The bustard smiled and said, "The next step is up to you gentlemen."
The quiet lobby immediately became noisy. Someone raised a wooden number sign and said, "I will pay fifty taels."
As soon as he finished speaking, another person said, "Sixty taels."
"Eighty taels!"
Li Qing looked at the large numbers on the small wooden sign on the table and realized what it was for, and couldn't help but laugh.
Is this also an auction?
In a blink of an eye, the price had reached one hundred and fifty taels. Li Qing couldn't help but be speechless, and his previously stiff waist slowly bent down.
I can’t afford it, I really can’t afford it.
"Three hundred taels!"
The neighboring table on the left raised the number plate and doubled the price, and the noisy lobby suddenly became silent.
Li Qing looked sideways and saw the silly son of a landlord next to him, covering most of his face with a small gold-painted fan, revealing only a pair of sinister eyebrows and squinting eyes.
I couldn't see his face, but I could tell from his voice that he was no more than fifteen years old, and he was still in the voice-changing stage.
Li Qing cursed secretly: "You haven't even grown your hair yet, why are you joining in the fun?
Price gouging, thunder and lightning! "
The fair-faced man on the side persuaded him hard: "Sir, we should go back, there will be a curfew in half an hour..."
"Don't talk nonsense, I want to see what she looks like." The young master was obviously in high spirits and said proudly, "Who else wants to bid?"
There are no poor people who can come here, they just think it’s not worth it. After all, it usually costs more than a hundred taels, but this little guy is so arrogant, so naturally some people are angry.
"Young boy, don't think that your family is the only one with money." A man snorted coldly, "Three hundred and fifty taels!"
"Five hundred taels!"
The young master explained what it means to be stupid and have too much money. The man was so choked up that he rolled his eyes and made no more bids despite feeling unhappy.
He sarcastically said: "How can you, a little kid, get so much money?
You're not here to brag, are you? "
"It's just that this is not your own home. Say whatever you want."
"Let's go back and play in the mud!"
The people around me echoed, you and I spoke one word at a time.
If you drive up prices, everyone will be punished!
"You fart." The young master said in embarrassment to the man traveling with him, "Xiao Lin, go pay."
"Sir, let's go back. If Master Huang finds out, my life will be at stake."
"If you don't go, I'll beat you to death." The young master couldn't stand it, so he closed the fan and hit him.
When Li Qing saw the young master's appearance, his pupils were shocked and he said in surprise: "Is it you?"
He really didn't expect that this guy who was driving up prices was actually the son of the largest landowner in the world.
Zhu Yuanzhang's great son.
Li Qing didn't know what this guy's name was, but he only remembered that Zhu Biao once called him Lao Ba.
The Eighth Prince turned his attention and saw that it was Li Qing. He immediately panicked and quickly spread his fan to cover his face, "It's not me, it's not me. Mr. Li, you have mistaken the person."
Li Qing was speechless for a while.
At this time, the Madam on the stage lost her temper and said in a slightly impatient tone, "Young Master, it's time to pay."
"Hey~ How can he have money?"
"Why pretend to be a big-tailed wolf if you don't have money?"
"Look, I'm so scared that I don't even dare to show my face. It's so funny."
The Eighth Prince had caused public outrage by driving up prices. Now that there was an opportunity to ridicule, everyone would not miss it, and everyone became angry.
The dignified prince had never experienced such humiliation, but he could not reveal his identity. He was not Zhu Biao. If Old Zhu found out that he had sneaked out of the palace and visited a brothel, he would be unable to get out of bed for ten days at the very least.
But at the age of thirteen, he was in the rebellious stage, and he really couldn't swallow this tone. He said bitterly: "Just pay, Xiaolin, go and pay quickly, and we will leave after paying."
After a pause, he said to Li Qing, "Mr. Li, I'm asking you to do this today, you have to help me keep the secret!"
Li Qing: "..."
Seeing that Li Qing didn't answer, the Eighth Prince became a little annoyed, "If I get punished, don't even think about it."
Li Qing was speechless and could only say, "The news will never spread from my mouth."
"That's good." The Eighth Prince felt relieved and turned back to the Madam, "I paid the money, young master, but I have to make Mr. Li feel comfortable."
"Oh~ Young Master, don't worry."
The Madam had a flattering look on her face. She had seen many rich people, but this was the first time she had seen such a rich and stupid person.
It was only five hundred taels that he had thrown away, but he had given it to someone else. It was so easy to cheat... and make money from him.
The eighth prince found his place and left in a hurry. The palace door was locked, and even he, the prince, could not open it.
The Madam approached Li Qing with an attentive look on her face. The friend of a rich man was naturally a rich man, and she naturally did not dare to neglect her sponsor.
"Sir, please come upstairs!"
