In the past few days, he has been staying in Yuqi Building, and all he did was eat, drink and go whoring.
As one of the most high-end brothels in Hangzhou, the hardware and services of Yuqi House are not bad, but...people like Hong Wei have been to too many similar places, and his desire for wine and sex has been eliminated.
To a very high level, just being "good" is not enough for him.
As mentioned earlier, Hong Wei became a flower picker because he was no longer satisfied with the excitement that money could buy. Now he would go into this brothel just because he wanted to see the brothels in Hangzhou and the brothels he had visited in the past.
What's the difference between the ones I've been through?
The result is no different.
So his crooked thoughts started to move again...
At this moment, he was holding a wine glass in his hand and holding the girl in his arms, but he was thinking in his heart: I have to go out for a walk tomorrow to see if there is anything on the road that I like.
If I don't find a good one, I'll go and find out where there are the kind of ladies who stay close to home, or go to a nunnery to find out.
Take a look at his thoughts... To be honest, compared with him, the high-ranking official from Ximen back then would feel inferior.
Even he himself doesn't know when he became like this. Before the age of twenty-five, he was a handyman who only dared to peek at women, but now he has become a evil ghost in lust and the devil in flowers; if that man
The master who left his martial arts skills down in the valley knew that he had created such a disaster, and would be so angry that he would crawl out of the ground.
"Thank you, today's food and wine... don't taste good?"
The girl from Yuqilou was also very good at observing words and expressions. Seeing the expression on Hong Wei's face, she asked tentatively.
Hearing this, Hong Wei came back to his senses and smiled, then reached out and pinched the other person again: "Haha...hehehe, I'm just thinking about something."
Just as they were talking, the madam of the brothel just opened the door and walked in.
As soon as she heard Hong Wei's words, the madam raised her voice and said: "Oh, uncle, what you said is right..." As she spoke, she came closer to Hong Wei, "What kind of girl do we have here?"
Okay~ Why are you still distracted when you are so beautiful?"
Hong Wei glanced at her and raised one corner of his mouth: "Ha... Madam, you came just in time. Let me ask you one more question..." He is an old prostitute and will not talk nonsense to the old bustard.
He said directly, "Do you have any girls here that you haven't brought to me?"
Coincidentally, the madam came in just now, just to find a chance to talk to him about this matter.
"Hey, uncle." But she still had to put on airs, put on an unhappy look, and looked at the two girls who were accompanying Hong Wei at the moment, "What's wrong with you, this green and red color? Is it?
Did I offend you by saying the wrong thing? Or did I serve you poorly? The girl is still in your arms, so why don’t you ask me this?"
When Hong Wei saw this, he sneered, but his attitude was still very calm: "They... are pretty good."
That's all he said, and he didn't say any more.
Just wait for the other party to understand the implication.
Who are the people who can be the madams? Those who are tall are all human beings. They belong to the type that can definitely survive to the later stage in palace fighting movies. Can you not understand what he means?
"You guys go out first." After taking a breath, the madam's face darkened, and she said something and winked to the two girls in the room.
Cuicui and Honghong walked quickly. After all, who would want to get off work overtime when they could get off work?
After the two of them left the house and closed the door, the madam took a few steps to the side with an air of air and a cold expression on her face, and then sat down at Hong Wei's table while talking to herself.
Seeing her tone, Hong Wei was not only not angry, but also a little happy, because he understood that the old woman was in such a state, which meant that she still had "good stuff" hidden inside her.
"Mom..." Therefore, in the next second, Hong Wei changed the name to the other party, and his tone of voice became more friendly, "...but what is it that is inconvenient to say?"
"Humph... Isn't this convenient..." The madam paused here, "...Isn't it just looking at you?"
When Hong Wei heard this, he became even more excited: "Oh~ I understand, I understand..."
While he was speaking, he reached his right hand into his arms, quickly took out two ingots of silver, and casually placed them on the table.
These two ingots are both larger pieces of silver. He took the broken silver to the silversmith to redeem it two days ago - yes, you read that right, the day after he collected Brother Sun's money,
He had already gone to see the silversmith, which meant that he had actually been exposed a long time ago.
"Well..." The madam glanced sideways at the silver on the table, but did not take it. He just groaned and continued, "Sir, that's not what I meant."
"Oh?" Seeing that she was still pretending, Hong Wei was a little unhappy. He was used to being a bad person now, and his patience had become very bad. He often turned against her after saying a few words, "Are you too young?"
"Hey~" After being treated like this, the Madam's attitude softened again, "Master, please listen to me..." After saying this, she pretended to reach out and took the money on the table into her arms.
Here, "It really doesn't matter how much money you have..."
When Hong Wei saw that the other party had taken the money, he felt a lot more at ease, and a smile appeared on his face again: "Ah... I understand." He immediately relied on his experience of intensive visits to brothels in the past six months to deduce
One possibility is, "Are there some kind of 'aloof' girls who are not willing to meet guests casually?"
His inference is very reliable.
In Dashu, there are many brothels, especially the high-end ones, and thieves like to do this.
Some of them are true, but most of the time...it's not that the girl is really unwilling to accept customers, but that the madam deliberately creates that aloof persona and engages in hunger marketing to drive up the price.
"Alas..." Unexpectedly, the madam in front of her sighed, "It's not that she's not willing to 'meet guests casually', it's that she doesn't see guests at all."
"Ah?" Hong Wei raised his eyebrows and said, "Mom, do you think I am a layman?" He paused for half a second and then continued, "Can she still let her enter your place? As long as you want,
Is there any way to force her to submit?"
He is right. Except for the special situation of the concubine, normally speaking, which brothel would raise idle people?
If a brothel owner really wants to force a woman to pick up a client, there are many ways, unless you really have the guts to hit her to death and get rid of her... But there are very few people like that. If there were more of them, the brothel would have closed down long ago.
.
"Sir, you don't know something about this." The old madam said, picking up a glass of leftover wine that the girl just drank on the table, taking a sip, and then said, "This is not an ordinary woman, I'm doing this.
I have been in the industry for decades, and this is the first time I have seen a 'skinny horse' in such good condition..."
"Wait, wait, wait." She just started to say this, but Hong Wei interrupted her, "We've been making trouble for a long time, and it's just a 'skinny horse'?"
It's normal for him to react like this.
What is a thin horse? To put it bluntly, it is a girl raised by traffickers who specialize in the "thin horse trade".
This kind of human traffickers usually do not kidnap, but directly pay to buy beautiful girls from poor families. After buying them back, they teach them singing, dancing, music and chess, calligraphy and painting, etc. When the girls grow up, the traffickers will use them according to their beauty.
Their talents are divided into several grades. The "high-grade" ones are sold to the rich as concubines, the "medium-grade" ones are servants or maids, and the "low-grade" ones are sold to the Qin Tower and Chu Palace.
Fireworks in Willow Lane.
Therefore, when Hong Wei heard the word "skinny horse" at this moment, his first reaction was that he must be a low-class product to enter a brothel, so he was a little disappointed.
"Don't worry, just listen to me." The old bustard was not angry, curled his lips and continued, "Although he is a 'skinny horse', he was not sold to us because of his poor performance. There is a reason.
of."
"What's the reason?" Hong Wei responded with the mentality of just letting it go.
The old madam then spoke eloquently: "This girl was originally bought with a large sum of money and was intended to be given to Lord Wan, the right servant of the Ministry of Household Affairs, as his concubine. Who would have thought... that before she even got married, she would be taken over by the wife of the assistant minister?"
They happened upon her, and when she saw how beautiful she was, how could she be allowed to stay? But she was afraid that she would be sent back again in the future, so she secretly sent someone to send her out of the house and sell her to a distant place again.
She came to me." She said this and took another sip of wine. "Don't think she is a 'skinny horse'. I bought her for a full two hundred taels... At this price, I still think she is.
You got a bargain... Not to mention you men, I am tempted by this girl."
Hearing this, Hong Wei became restless. Regardless of his status as a guest, he picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine for the madam: "Mom, are you serious about this? Is she really that beautiful?"
"Look at what you said." The old madam's attitude was very confident, "Can I lie to you? If it is false, won't you tell me after just one look?"
"Yes, yes..." The smile on Hong Wei's face was almost unbearable, "Then... you said she doesn't accept guests, so what's going on?"
"Oh... isn't that what happened..." the old bustard replied with an unhappy look, "That girl said that although she was born as a thin horse, she is still a virgin... Originally, she could marry the minister.
As a concubine, she accepted her, but now she lives with me, ruining her fortune.
"She is a smart person. She knew that if she wanted to marry into a good family in the future, she could not receive guests at my place. So she discussed with me and said that she would not see guests, but she would not let my old wife raise her in vain, as long as someone is willing to do so.
To redeem her body, she would go directly with them. All the money for her redemption would belong to me, and she would not take any of it.
"I'm thinking about it... She's like this. Even if I try to force her to submit once, I won't be able to earn as much as two hundred taels. What if she loses her temper the next day and throws a plate and takes the porcelain?
If you wipe your neck, I will suffer a huge loss, so..."
At this point, the Madam's words actually meant the same thing, and Hong Wei didn't care about the rest.
"Mom, is this girl... really still a Huanghuaer's daughter?" Hong Wei listened to a lot of things, but his attention finally fell on this sentence.
"Heh...why am I lying to you?" said the old bustard, "That's right, if you and her can really get married, wouldn't you see it yourself?"
"Oh..." Hong Wei nodded, "Okay, okay..." He muttered twice, then suddenly thought of something, "Eh? When can I see her?"
"Well..." the madam said, "It's not okay to let her see you directly. She said she won't see guests, but... I can let you take a sneak peek at her."
"Take a sneak peek?" Hong Wei thought, "How to take a peek?"
"That's easy." The madam replied, "It's too late today. I'll find a good moment tomorrow and call her while I'm delivering her food. Then you can take a look outside the room," she said.
At this point, he showed a confident look on his face, "I am not boasting, this girl... just this one look, you will definitely not be able to take it out after seeing her."
"Oh~" Hong Wei said with a smile, "Then I really want to take a closer look."
"But, sir..." the old bustard said, "if you are satisfied after seeing this..." She raised her hand and made a gesture of rubbing money, "How much do you plan to pay to ransom her?"
"Well..." Hong Wei thought for a while, "How much do you think is appropriate?"
"Ah..." Upon hearing this question, the madam immediately began to pretend to look at her nails, and her tone of voice became pretentious, "If this girl is willing to accept guests, she will be a money tree... Don't look at the cost.
With her beauty, I can earn back a hundred taels of capital in half a year. Even if she gets older, her beauty fades, and her body becomes looser... she can still be prosperous for another ten or eight years, no matter what.
You have to earn one thousand eight hundred taels."
"Haha..." Hong Wei said with a smile, "It's hard to say what happened ten or eight years ago, right now... I haven't seen the person yet, and I can't say anything about the price; but, wait until tomorrow
I saw it. If I think it's good, then I'll at least give you this number..." As he spoke, he held out five fingers and said, "...I wonder what mom wants?"
When the madam heard this, she rolled her eyes and said, "Well... let me think about it too."
"Okay." Hong Wei continued, "Let's all think about it..."
When the two of them said this, they seemed to have reached some kind of tacit understanding. They each raised their glasses and drank a toast.
In fact, Hong Wei won't "think about it again", he has already thought about it - he will go directly to "pick flowers" tonight; as for the money, he will not give another penny, so he can count it out now.
, it’s just about stabilizing the other party.
“Ah——” After the strong drink passed down his throat, Hong Wei let out a hearty breath, and then said, “By the way, I’ve been talking for so long, what’s the girl’s name, how old is she, which room does she live in... You haven’t even heard of her yet.
Tell me."
"Oh~ easy to say." The madam has been waiting for this question for a long time. This is the most important answer she needs to answer here today. "She doesn't have a name either, just called 'Zhi'er'. She is eighteen years old and lives in Er.
