Before returning to Dongdu, Chen Mo went to a restaurant to buy some wine and food, and then the five of them returned to the military camp carrying these wine and food.

After all, Gao Zheng and the others were invited to go to the Jiaofang Division, and there were a hundred people in Dongdu, but no one else went.

If the news spreads, even with Gao Zheng's prestige in the Eastern Capital, some people will inevitably gossip.

And these drinks and dishes can put an end to these gossips.

Of course, some people will say that it is too unfair that you invited Gao Zheng and others to visit a brothel, while I invited them to have wine and food.

Yes, what Chen Mo wants to distinguish is that they cannot be treated the same.

If they are all treated the same, these people will lose their ambition.

And if they are treated differently, after these people see Gao Zheng's treatment, they will naturally want to climb up or even replace Gao Zheng.

In this process, Chen Mo will naturally look at who has this potential and promote him.

Yes, although Chen Mo has won over Gao Zheng and others, he cannot completely trust them.

Even a small Dongdu needs balance.

After all, Gao Zheng's qualifications are relatively senior in Dongdu. If this continues, even if he is the head of the capital, in the future, everyone may only know Gao Zheng and not Chen Mo.

Jiaofangsi can be regarded as a smoke bomb released by Chen Mo.

...

"From now on, if I, Chen Hong, have a mouthful of meat to eat, you will have a mouthful of soup to drink..."

At noon, after a lecture, Chen Mo left the Infantry Division.

After all, the Infantry Division was just used by Xiao Yunxi to brush up Chen Mo's qualifications.

Now that Chen Mo has gradually taken control of Dongdu, there is no need to waste a day in the Infantry Division.

...

After leaving the Infantry Division, Chen Mo originally planned to go directly to Jingru Palace.

But I thought of something, so I started walking around Bianliang City.

Bianliang City, the capital of the Song Dynasty, had a total of 108 squares and a population of no less than three million.

Even at noon, which is the hottest time in summer, there are still many people walking on the streets.

The shops along the street are also dazzling.

This was Chen Mo's second real visit to Bianliang City. As he walked, he came to a brightly lit place full of brothels and restaurants.

From time to time I still hear this sentence:

"Master, come in and play!"

"Young master is so handsome. If you make me happy, I might consider not accepting money from you."

"I'm sorry, I don't do it for free."

...

After walking out of this sensual place, Chen Mo stopped in front of a shop called Zhenbao Pavilion.

Chen Mo was dressed in brocade clothes and was a talented person. When he entered, his face looked like he had the word "rich young master" written on his face. The shopkeeper's eyes shone with golden light, as if he saw a big fat man. The customer in his hand

He ignored them all and ran over quickly:

"Hey, young master, please come in quickly. Please come in quickly. You are a stranger. I don't know what to call you?"

"My surname is Chen."

"It turns out to be Mr. Chen. What do you want to buy? Is it for your wife or..." As she spoke, the middle-aged female shopkeeper was thinking about which minister or wealthy businessman named Chen Mo was.

's son.

"Madam." Chen Mo thought for a while and said.

Hearing this, the female shopkeeper didn't want to think about it anymore. She immediately clapped her hands and invited Chen Mo to a private room in the shop. All the tea, water and melon seeds were served to her.

Then the female shopkeeper said: "Mr. Chen, you have come to the right place. The rouges in my shop are all available. From the princes and nobles to the common people, anyone who has bought the rouges in my shop will not be able to buy them."

A bad thing to say..."

The female shopkeeper is very confident in her products.

"In addition to rouge, there are also jewelry and other items?" Chen Mo sat down on the chair, picked up the tea cup, took a sip of tea, and said softly.

Since she was respectful, he would also hold it.

"Yes, yes, yes." The female shopkeeper was even more happy.

Buying jewelry, it seems that this young man is still a fat man.

He immediately clapped his hands, but in just half a cup of tea, a large amount was placed on the table next to Chen Mo.

Late autumn leaves.

Xiao Yunxi.

Zhao Fujin.

Chen Mo mainly bought it for these three people.

So after taking a look at these things, he shook his head and said: "These jewelry are too showy, and the color of the rouge is too bright, they are not enough for women in brothels. Do you look noble?"

"

There are also some jewelry in Wang Ying's box, and the material seems to be of good quality.

But he was a eunuch in the Weiyang Palace, so most of these jewels were probably given to him by Xiao Yunxi in the past ten years or knocked from the hands of other palace maids.

Used to give away, easy to find.

Hearing this, Chen Mo's attitude in the female shopkeeper's mind improved to another level.

After half a cup of tea, a new batch was served.

This time, it seemed much more noble.

Chen Mo first picked out three hostas, one green, one white, and one white with a hint of blood red.

The ones that are white with a bit of blood red are more expensive.

The three hostas cost nearly three hundred taels in total.

Chen Mo's annual salary is only a few dozen taels.

But three hostas cost a lot of money.

Rouge, on the other hand, is relatively cheaper.

But when Chen Mo picked up a box, the female shopkeeper smiled and said: "Mr. Chen is really discerning. The lipstick you picked up is the signature product of our store, called Xianren Yan."

"Oh, what can you say about this fairy's face?" Chen Mo became interested.

"Uh... I don't have much to say, it's just that the name is nice."

Chen Mo: "..."

"But our immortal face has a special feature, can it be eaten?"

“Which store’s lipstick cannot be eaten?”

"Young master, what you said is different, I use this fairy face..." The female shopkeeper mentioned a lot of precious materials, and then said: "How can ordinary rouge compare with my fairy face? And my fairy face is

, but there are many flavors...

"Look, sir, this one is watermelon flavored."

"This one is lychee flavored."

"This one is peach flavored."

...

"Sir, think about it, when you and your wife are preparing to have a night of love, let her apply peach-flavored lip balm, and then you kiss her, will you feel that everything looks beautiful..."

Chen Mo: "..."

This female shopkeeper was definitely a talent in her previous life.

"Ahem, three servings of all the flavors you mentioned," Chen Mo said.

"Three copies?" The female shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then reacted and said, "Understood."

Looking at Chen Mo's age, the female shopkeeper immediately thought that in addition to his wife, he also had to buy it for his concubine.

"Young master really cares about his woman."

Before sending Chen Mo out, the female shopkeeper said with a smile.

Chen Mo did not answer, but left the Zhenbao Pavilion with a baggage in hand.

"Master, please come again next time!"

…

Because the baggage is quite large, it must be searched before entering the palace.

Fortunately, Chen Mo is the eunuch of the harem.

It is normal and reasonable to wear some rouge and gouache.
