Chapter 186
The sun is shining brightly on your body, which is quite comfortable, and it is a good time to travel.
During the Northern Song Dynasty, the Central Plains had distinct four seasons, and the temperature in winter was low, but during the clear day and sunlight, you could still feel some warmth.
Wu Haogu today went out of the city with Su Dalang and Lin Wancheng to Lianhua Temple. The day before yesterday he asked someone to make an appointment with Ji Yi and Ji Daguan to talk to him about something here.
In front of the Lotus Temple, the three of them got off the horse, Wu Haogu and Su Dalang threw the reins to Lin Wancheng, and then went into the temple together.
As soon as I walked into the mountain gate, a melodious and pleasant chanting came from my ears, which was the voice of Mo Niangzi.
Ji Yi had arrived early, and was talking to an old female envoy serving Mo in the main hall of Lianhua Temple. Seeing Wu Haogu and Su Dalang, she stopped the conversation and quickly went out to greet her.
After a while of greeting, the three of them went to the backyard of Lianhua Temple, the pavilion where Mo Niang lived.
Compared to the last time I came here, the pavilion was redecorated. The room where Mo Niang practiced dancing was changed into a Persian-style living room. A soft carpet was laid on the ground, a stove was placed in the corner, and it was warm. A low table with only a person's knees was placed in the middle of the house. Mo Niang was already waiting there, wearing exotic Persian women's clothing, a little tight, fully highlighting her graceful figure.
When Wu Haogu walked in, she was squatting next to the low table with a tray, and placed the silver wine pot and wine glass on the tray on the table.
Seeing Wu Haogu, Ji Yi and Su Dalang come in, Madam Mo hurriedly put the tray on and then got up and gave a blessing: "Nu Nu has met Wu Da official, Yuanwai Su."
"Madam Mo, it's rare." Wu Haogu returned a greeting.
Madam Mo squatted down again, put all the wine pots and glasses, and was about to get up and leave, but was stopped by Wu Haogu: "Wait a minute, Madam Mo, today and Dalang are here for you, so why don't you listen to it together."
"Come for slavery?"
Madam Mo was stunned, and then her fair face turned red.
Ji Yi was also a little stunned. Madam Mo was not a real family genius, but a saint of the Ming Cult.
It’s okay to seduce Zhao Ji, but it can be considered a sacrifice for the survival of the sect, but Wu Haogu…
The scene inside the room suddenly became a little embarrassed. After a while, Ji Yi realized, "Sit down and talk, Moli, you can sit down too."
The name of Mo Niangzi turned out to be Mo Li... It's quite suitable for her.
"Brother Idiot," Wu Haogu sat down and looked at the shy Madam Mo with a look of lust, and then smiled, "The Fengle Tower's singing and selling ceremony is almost ready now. In addition to the two final paintings, I also made thirty-two calligraphy and paintings, including four fine works. Not counting "Li Shishi's Photo Picture" and "Mo Niang's Dance Picture", if all these calligraphy and paintings can be taken at an appropriate price, there is no problem with 200,000 yuan... Just a 200,000 yuan prize can be obtained!"
A sing-selling and selling cost 20,000 yuan... No, it's more than 20,000 yuan. "Photographs of Li Shishi" and "Dance Pictures of Mo Niang" will definitely be sold at high prices!
This is really a daily profit. If such a singing and selling can be organized once a month, Christie's's net profit will exceed 200,000 yuan in one year.
If the album "The Courtesan" derived from "The Courtesan" can be successfully launched, and twelve books are distributed a year, it will not be too difficult to earn ten thousand yuan per book.
That's 300,000 yuan a year...
Ji Yi was also a little impressed by Wu Haogu. Their Ji Family Sea business is known as Ji Bancheng in Pingjiang. The annual investment is only more than 600,000 yuan. That is not Ji Yi's own, so he needs eight houses!
Su Dalang took over the topic and laughed: "Remember it, it's not to be hiding. Our Christie's business is still a pioneering business, and there are not many people in total. It's really not easy to operate such a big deal. Although Xiaomi officials have brought a lot of people from the Imperial College these days, I have also brought a few people from the Old Su family.
But Chongdao told me that our Christie's business still lacks a sing and selling master... I thought that the singing and selling songs were both singing, so I felt that Madam Mo could do it."
Singing and selling...Master?
Ji Yi and Madam Mo looked at each other: Wu Haogu is really good at making excuses!
"Remember it," Wu Haogu also smiled, "The words of singing and selling are also very knowledgeable. You have to know how to fool people's hearts... I wanted to invite Li Shishi out of the mountain, but I didn't want her to be with Duan Wang, so I could only ask you to give up."
Passion?
Is this a proper word?
Ji Yi still felt that Wu Haogu wanted to include Mo Madam Mo into the curtain, but it was not easy to refuse immediately, so she could only wink at Mo Madam.
Madam Mo looked at Wu Haogu and always felt that this kid was a little lustful. When he was painting last time, his expression looked unreasonable... Thinking of this, she subconsciously shook her head, but she heard Wu Haogu speak again.
"Our Christie's singing and selling will definitely become bigger in the future. It will not only be calligraphy, painting, literature and entertainment, but also expand to land, real estate, jewelry, and pleasure boats... In short, as long as it can be sold, it can introduce the method of singing and selling. Moreover, it is impossible for the only one in Kaifeng Christie's. In the future, someone will definitely do the same thing as us. Christie's will also open branches in various places.
In short, there is a lot to do in singing and selling. And now you join Mo, you will be the ancestor of the masters of singing and selling masters!"
Madam Mo doesn't care about the ancestors, but if she can really make her a big spell, Madam Mo can recruit disciples and make friends with powerful and wealthy people... It should be beneficial to the Ming Cult, right?
When she thought of this, she was a little moved and was about to exchange glances with Ji Yi again. Unexpectedly, with two eyes, Ji Yi thought that Mo Madam agreed, so she spoke, "Since that's the case, I'll give up my love."
What?
Is this cutting myself out?
Madam Mo was stunned, looked up at Wu Haogu with a surprise expression on his face, and then looked at Ji Yi again.
Ji Yi smiled at her, "As for Moli's contract, I will deliver it to Christie's main store in a few days."
Sale contract?
Madam Mo glared at Ji Yi, when did she sell it to the Ji family?
Family tricks are just to protect her identity when she is in Kaifeng Prefecture! Why do you want a fake show to come true now... You really give yourself to Wu Haogu as a family trick?
What should I do? Wu Haogu is so lustful, he will definitely not let him go...
"No, no, no."
When Madam Mo was really anxious, Wu Haogu shook his head and said, "Madam Mo is not an object, it's better to destroy it quickly. When she entered Christie's business, she was a manager of a house and had a free body."
Wu Haogu is still a little rejected about the evil slavery, especially treating women like Mo Niangzi as slaves... It's so evil! Wu Haogu feels that his soul comes from the pure 21st century and must not do such things that are worse than beasts.
At most...at most it is to turn Mo Niangzi into a free mistress!
Moreover, Mo Niangzi's image, voice, and her fame formed by "Mo Niangzi's Dance Picture" all made her the de facto courtesan lady. It was so aggrieved to let her continue to be a family craft, and she should have a better reputation.
"The manager of a house?" Ji Yi nodded, "Then, you will ruin Moli's contract for selling your body. Moli, from today on, you will be free."
"Okay!" Wu Haogu smiled and said to Ji Yi, "But it is not appropriate to let Madam Mo live in Christie's main store, so I live in my house..." He glanced at Mo Li, "It's not good, just let her stay in this Lianhua Temple for a while, is it okay?"
Ji Yi waved her hand generously, "Okay, you can live as long as you want."
"It doesn't take long to live. When Christie's is built in the guild next to Huaxian Temple, let Madam Mo live there."
The renovation and expansion of Huaxian Temple has not yet begun, because Wu Haogu cannot spare time to carry out architectural design. He is preparing to build Christie's Hall next to Huaxian Temple, so he has no sign of his horoscope. So he can only let Mo Niangzi stay in Lianhua Temple for a while.
