When three men get together, if they are adults and not short of money, they usually won't do anything good.
A man's life can basically be summed up in one sentence, "Where can I get some money to sleep with this bitch?"
It’s a rough statement, but it actually promotes the progress of the entire human civilization.
Different dynasties have different standards for visiting brothels.
The girls in the brothels are all talented and beautiful, they can play the pipa, dance, and of course they can have guests stay overnight.
In the later Song Dynasty, the quality of women in brothels was even higher, and talent was their traffic code. Men who regarded themselves as talented scholars flocked to them, and they were proud to listen to a song, and spending the night there was the next best thing.
Then...more than a thousand years later, things were completely different.
The times are open, you can have a body as much as you want, but you have to appreciate your talents, and you won't give them even if you kill them, because you have no talents at all.
When Li Qinzai, Sun Congdong, and Song Jintu walked into the brothel, they were greeted by an elegant middle-aged intellectual guest who came forward to salute.
The madams waving handkerchiefs, wearing exaggerated makeup, and wearing exaggerated high-profile hair in movies and TV dramas will never appear here.
Although it is a leather butcher shop, it is engaged in the business of welcoming and delivering people, but after all, it will not be too explicit. Not to mention that the brothel itself has lost its dignity, and its class will gradually drop.
The middle-aged Zhike is like a failed scholar, with a very friendly attitude, just like welcoming a neighbor who comes to visit. He has a sense of himself inside and out, with just the right amount of casualness and politeness, making him feel at home.
The brothel has two floors, and the lobby downstairs is full of individual customers. They don't necessarily enter the brothel to sleep with girls. Some individual customers just use it as a place to drink and chat, and invite a girl to play the guqin or pipa next to it.
Add a little more atmosphere to the banquet.
Upstairs belongs to the VIP leisure area, where really bad things are done. Of course, the consumption is also very expensive. Spending a lot of money to buy a beautiful smile has been done by people throughout the ages. The person who wants to buy a beautiful smile in this brothel is probably a middle-class family.
A person’s income for half a year or a year.
Li Xianhou is treating guests today, so he naturally has to go to the VIP leisure area on the second floor.
Zhike arranged a rather spacious pavilion for the three of them, and then exited sensibly and asked the girl to come in and wait.
Sun Congdong looked at him with resentment: "Marquis Li, did you agree to take over the whole brothel?"
Li Qinzai sighed, held the back of his neck and pushed open the door of the pavilion, pointed to the upstairs and downstairs and said: "Look carefully, there are at least a hundred girls in this brothel. It's agreed that if I take over the entire
You can’t waste any of this brothel.”
"You're going to have to sleep on my damn girl's belly tonight, okay? As long as you agree, I won't be short of money and I'll cover it all for you right away."
Sun Congdong gave up decisively.
He has never been afraid of facing thousands of troops, but he really doesn't have the confidence to face more than a hundred girls.
Song Jintu, who was behind him, drank from a cup and said leisurely: "The general is not that greedy. One or two is enough. If there are three or four, the general will probably die here..."
Li Qinzai slapped Sun Congdong: "Look at how sober he is!"
Sun Congdong said hurriedly: "Only one or two generals are enough."
"You don't want me to book the whole brothel?"
"I want to kill a thief, but I hate myself for not living up to expectations..."
Zhike came in with the girl, and seven or eight girls in front of him saluted the three of them.
Li Qinzai's eyes suddenly became wet.
The nostalgia of my previous life was all that was needed to say "Welcome all bosses to visit XXX", and then each introduce themselves "I'm from XX"...
After thousands of years, the taste has not changed at all. Li Qinzai suspects that the KTV in later generations is not actually an entertainment industry, but a promotion of traditional culture.
The girls stood in a row, and Li Qinzai glanced at them casually.
Well, I was not so lucky to find a stunning woman who had fallen into prostitution, and then had an unforgettable sadomasochistic relationship with the protagonist.
In fact, the appearance of these women can only be considered average. In terms of scores, they are about sixty to seventy.
The composition of women who have fallen into prostitution these days is somewhat complicated. Some are wives and daughters of prisoners, some are runaway slaves, and there are even prisoners of war from foreign countries.
The ingredients are too complex, and the appearance is naturally even more uneven. The probability of finding a stunning woman from a brothel is too low.
Even if there is a stunning woman, the benefactors are not blind. She has been ransomed by the powerful and powerful for a large sum of money and kept in his own mansion for exclusive use. It is not the turn of the benefactors to fall in love with her.
Li Qinzai has no interest in these poor women. His status determines his height. There are more than one women with whom he has had emotional entanglements. They are either princesses or county lords. The maids who serve him at home are all princesses. How can he look down on the looks in front of him?
A middle-aged woman.
Li Qinzai waved his hand, and all seven or eight women were given to Sun Congdong and Song Jintu, leaving none for himself.
Sun Congdong and Song Jintu were flattered. Even though the Marquis of Li County was promoted to nobility, he did not forget the friendship between Pao and Ze. I wonder which man can be so selfless at this juncture?
Good guy!
Waited by a group of girls, Sun Congdong and Song Jintu were happy to miss Shu, Li Qinzai was drinking alone, and there was another girl playing the guqin in the pavilion.
After having a few drinks, the three of them began to reminisce about the past.
The past is not far away, just like yesterday. Li Qinzai led the soldiers to fight guerrillas in the thousands of miles of Tuyuhun wasteland, and was trapped in a tight siege and lived and died with the soldiers.
The three people were still sad and emotional when talking about the tragedy of the war in today's peaceful and prosperous environment.
It was getting late, and Li Qinzai saw the appearance of the two lovers and seemed to be planning to stay in a brothel tonight, so he wisely got up and left.
As soon as I stood up from the futon, I heard a commotion downstairs.
Li Qinzai opened the door and walked out, and saw a middle-aged man wearing silk and satin downstairs, holding a black money bag in both hands. In front of him, stood several young people whose identities could not be identified.
Several young people looked arrogant and stared at him with dissatisfaction, but they didn't even look at the money bag in the middle-aged man's hand.
"Shopkeeper Wu has seen the world. You don't need me to teach you how to behave. How can you be so embarrassed to hand over this little money? Do you think we are rogues on the street?"
The middle-aged man smiled bitterly and said: "Isn't the rule in the past always to pay twice?"
"That was in the past, but today is different. The rules have changed. Five guans per month, and not a penny less."
Shopkeeper Wu was obviously the shopkeeper of this brothel. Hearing this, he frowned dissatisfied: "Who changed the rules?"
The young man chuckled: "Our new head coach, Head Coach Yang."
Li Qinzai stood upstairs and watched quietly, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.
The word "teacher" was unusual. It was obviously related to religion, but he could never figure out which religion it was.
Taoism and Buddhism do not have this name. Besides these two major religions, what else did the Tang Dynasty have?
Sun Congdong also came out after hearing the commotion. He casually glanced downstairs and showed a look of surprise.
Li Qinzai looked at him: "Do you know who they are?"
Sun Congdong smiled: "The general has been on the right guard of Chang'an all year round, so of course he knows. They are Nestorian people."
