Four hundred and thirtieth chapters brothel and oiran
"Uncle, how do you feel? Does your leg still hurt?"
In the security hall, Chu Feng moved quickly around the knee of an old man several times.
"It doesn't seem to hurt anymore, and I still feel warm. What's going on?" The old man bent his legs and asked happily.
"It's just that you suffered from cold evil, and I have helped you get rid of it. However, you are getting old after all, so you should pay more attention to keeping warm in the future." Chu Feng returned to his seat, and at the same time, he wrote a simple note.
Prescription, said again,
"This is a recipe for regulating the body. If you take it for a month, even your hidden diseases will be completely eliminated."
"Ah, one month, let's forget it." The old man was simply dressed. He was obviously not a rich man. He couldn't afford the soup and medicine for a month.
"Don't worry, they are just ordinary medicinal herbs and not worth much money. Don't worry, go get the medicine and treat it like I'm giving it to you for free." As he said this, he handed the prescription to the clerk next to him.
"But... but..." The old man was a little moved, but deep down in his heart, he felt that this was wrong. If he was not a relative, why should he take someone else's medicine for nothing?
"Stop it and go quickly."
Chu Feng smiled and persuaded him again for a while before letting him leave.
"Next one."
…
A large number of people came to see the doctor. Seeing what Dr. Xu did, everyone was grateful and a little surprised. Since the opening of the Baoan Tang, Dr. Xu has been doing this, helping the poor as much as he can.
I almost never received much money.
"Shopkeeper, I'm back."
At this moment, a young clerk ran out of the drug store, seemingly anxious and in a hurry.
Chu Feng turned around and looked, but it was one of the boys from his store who had been specially sent out before.
He looked at the only two patients left in front of him and then said:
"Wait a moment, I'll be there right away."
…
"How's it going? What's the gain?" In the inner hall, Chu Feng looked at the young man. He didn't dare to neglect him and immediately replied,
"Dr. Wu from Huichun Hall had a consultation in the morning, and went to Ruyi Hall at noon. Until the afternoon, I went to Wanhua Building with Dr. Liu from Ruyi Hall, and I haven't come out yet."
"Wanhua Tower!"
Chu Feng was slightly surprised. It was one of the top three brothels in the local area. He didn't expect that these two old men were quite young and quite romantic in private.
It was almost evening, and the sky was getting dark. I was still in Wanhua Tower at this time, and I guess I didn’t plan to leave.
"You go down first."
He took out a piece of silver and threw it to the other party. The waiter immediately smiled and respectfully retreated.
In the room, Chu Feng pondered secretly.
After rescuing Zhou, he got some pieces of information. The first was the Taoist priest who appeared inexplicably and framed him. However, the strange thing was that Zhou's soul seemed to have been deliberately tampered with, and some key memories were completely destroyed.
Erase, unable to remember the specific appearance of the other party.
It can be seen from this that the person behind this is not simple, and it is very likely that he is someone whose strength far exceeds his.
In addition, there are some small characters. For example, Doctor Wu of Huichun Hall, who once bribed the county magistrate specifically, hoping to take this opportunity to quickly settle the case so that Baoantan could be completely destroyed.
In fact, the fees charged by Baoan Tang are not low, and are even higher overall. However, their medical skills are so advanced that they can cure almost any disease, which makes some colleagues who are also doctors feel embarrassed and jealous.
Of course, there is another point that is also difficult for other drug store owners to accept. Baoantan implements a welfare strategy that provides great discounts to ordinary people, especially the poor, almost all of which are free.
This has greatly harmed the interests of other drug stores. You must know that although ordinary people are not as good as the rich, they are the largest group and are considered the main group of drug store customers. Now they are all being taken away by the security hall. It is no wonder that the other party
would be so eager.
"Although you are not the mastermind, I have to give you some warnings. Otherwise, wouldn't it seem that Mr. Chu is too weak and can be bullied?"
Chu Feng knew in his heart that these colleagues who opposed him had a common characteristic, that is, they were business-oriented and valued profits. As for medical ethics, they probably had no medical ethics at all.
But those doctors who are really committed to helping the world have no such intention. After all, no matter how good the Baoan Tang is, it can only radiate to a certain area, and it will not ruin other people's jobs. It will just make a little less money.
.
…
As night fell, the number of pedestrians on the streets became sparse, and most of the people went home early to rest.
However, for the Qin Lou Chu Pavilion that exists in certain areas, it has no impact at all. The hazy night adds endless fun and charm.
Wanhua House, as one of the largest brothels in Qiantang, is just starting to open for business at this time. The birds are singing and dancing, and the lights are dim, tempting the carnivores who are ready to eat all the time.
"Isn't this Mr. Liu? I haven't seen you for a long time..."
"Hey, member Zheng is here too, please come in quickly..."
"..."
Chu Feng stopped and looked at the bustling traffic in front of Wanhua Tower. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Didn't the great men in ancient times lack spiritual entertainment? This is much more interesting than playing games online, and it also looks very stylish.
.
He knew something about Wanhua Tower. It was a brothel, not gaudy. The women inside were completely different from ordinary prostitutes. They were truly talented women and they were selling their talents.
Moreover, not everyone can enter a brothel, and ordinary people without any status can't even think about it.
"This young man is very nice, but is this your first time here?"
Before she even took a step forward, a beautiful woman with a plump figure suddenly walked towards her. As time went by, her charm remained unchanged and became even more charming.
The other party's eyes were very poisonous, and he noticed that the visitor was extraordinary just from his dress and temperament, so his attitude was extremely enthusiastic.
"That's right. Wanhualou is the largest brothel in Qiantang. Come and see it." As he said that, he suddenly pulled out a huge pearl in his hand and threw it directly to the other party.
"Young Master, it's a coincidence that you are here. Today happens to be the oiran selection. You must not miss it." When the beautiful woman saw the shining pearls, her eyes suddenly lit up and she smiled. While speaking, she called a young girl and gave instructions.
road,
"Xiao Cui, take this young master in to find a better location. In addition, don't worry about other things, just serve this young master."
"Yes," Xiaocui replied respectfully, her voice clear and crisp.
"Sir, please follow me."
Chu Feng followed the other party forward and took a look at Xiao Cui from the corner of his eye. He was young, dressed like a maid, and looked very delicate. However, he seemed a bit shy and didn't talk much.
"How old are you?"
"Ah, sir, my servant is fourteen this year." Xiao Cui seemed to have not expected that the other party would take the initiative to ask her her age. She was surprised and at the same time replied with some anxiety.
"Do you know everything about the Oiran Competition?"
"Yes, if you want to know, Master, I can explain it to you in detail."
"Then I'll trouble Miss Xiaocui." Chu Feng nodded.
"No...it's not troublesome."
Xiaocui's cheeks were slightly red. She had never seen such a guest, who was so polite to her, a maid.
The two of them walked into the hall while they were talking. It was a large area, and a temporary high platform had been set up in the center. It was covered with flowers and was decorated extremely carefully.
The guests who arrived all sat on one side of the high platform, sipping tea and interacting with familiar friends.
"Master, what do you think of this place?" The good seats were already occupied. Xiao Cui finally found an empty seat in a corner and asked.
"It's okay, this is it."
Chu Feng didn't pay attention, and immediately sat down. His eyes swept around slightly, and he immediately found tonight's target, Doctor Wu from Huichun Hall. Zhou's memory was not missing at all, even though it was
Soul state, but happens to really remember the other person.
"Do you know that person?"
"Young master, are you talking about Dr. Wu? I know it." Xiaocui was stunned for a moment and replied immediately.
"Where are the people around him?"
Chu Feng asked again. Doctor Wu was not alone. There were three other people around the table on both sides. Judging from their appearance, they seemed to be doctors. However, except for Doctor Liu from Ruyi Hall, the other two were somewhat unfamiliar.
Like a local from Qiantang.
"That's Dr. Liu from Ruyi Hall. The other two maids don't know him either, but from what the other sisters said, it seems like he's an honored guest invited by Dr. Wu from Suzhou."
"Suzhou." Chu Feng's eyes flickered slightly. He had known that the other party would not be calm. It seems that he was right. The man surnamed Wu asked two doctors from Suzhou to come over, presumably to cause some trouble.
"Tell me about the oiran selection process?"
After withdrawing his thoughts, Chu Feng talked about the previous topic again.
"There are a total of ten girls appearing tonight. They are all talented girls carefully cultivated by Wanhua Tower, and it is their first time to meet guests..." Xiao Cui began to tell.
The so-called Oiran Competition, as the name suggests, is the selection of Oiran. These women participating in the competition are all seed players collected by Wanhualou from all over the country and carefully cultivated.
Later, each talented woman will have to show off her talents one by one, including poems, songs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc. Of course, their appearance, demeanor, speech and behavior are also the rigid criteria for selection.
After hearing this, Chu Feng became a little interested. It would be good to experience this ancient high-level selection activity. In essence, it is no different from some entertainment events in later generations.
However, the women participating in the competition at this time need real skills. In terms of talent, they really need to have extremely high attainments in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and songs. Just a good-looking vase is not worthy of being on the table.
"Will Wanhua Tower hold oiran competitions frequently?"
"Of course not, it's only held every three years." Xiao Cui replied in a low voice.
"That's no wonder."
Chu Feng suddenly realized that as time passed, more and more guests arrived, obviously not wanting to miss such a grand event.
Some people had already recognized him and took the initiative to say hello. In this era, visiting a brothel is not a derogatory term, but an elegant thing, so no one would say anything.
On the other hand, Doctor Wu and his party, who were sitting in the distance, also discovered his presence at this time, and their expressions could not help but change slightly.
"Is he the Xu Xian that Brother Wu mentioned?" one of them asked quietly.
"That's right. How about it? Brother Zhang didn't think of it, right?" Doctor Wu nodded.
"How can such a young man have such advanced medical skills? Are you sure Mr. Wu is not mistaken?"
"That's the truth. I will still deceive two brothers."
"I heard that Xu Xian used to be a nerd and was very honest. I didn't expect that he would come to visit a brothel on the first day after getting married. You really can't be judged by appearance." Dr. Liu from Ruyi Pavilion on the side suddenly interjected, his tone full of ridicule.
"I opened a drug store and became a famous doctor in Qiantang. Some ideas will naturally change." Another middle-aged man who had never spoken a word sneered and said,
"What's more, domestic flowers are not as fragrant as wild flowers... cough cough... cough cough..."
The man was about to say more, but suddenly he felt a scratch in his throat, and then he coughed violently. It was okay at first, but as he coughed, he realized that something was wrong. He couldn't stop, and his whole old face turned red from holding back.
"Doctor Zheng, how are you?"
Several people were startled. They were all doctors, so they naturally knew some first aid methods. They scrambled for a while and finally made the other party calm down. However, at this time, Dr. Zheng was already in a daze, his face was pale, and there was even blood leaking from the corners of his mouth.
A trace of bright red blood looked extremely scary.
The nearby guests were also frightened and hurried away. Unknown to others, they thought they had an emergency and looked like they were about to die.
Doctor Wu quickly took out a two-inch-tall blue porcelain bottle from his pocket, poured out a pill the size of a soybean, and said:
"This is my secret rejuvenation pill. It has excellent curative effect. Let Brother Zheng take it quickly."
"call--"
After a while, Dr. Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, and his breathing gradually returned to calm.
"Thank you so much, Doctor Wu."
"It's okay, Brother Zheng is fine. But, what's wrong with you? Why are you coughing so hard all of a sudden?"
"I...I don't know either." Dr. Zheng's face was blank, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes. Obviously, the feeling of suffocation when he coughed violently just now is still vivid in his mind.
"Dr. Zheng and I have been friends for many years. I know his body best, and I have never heard of lung disease." Dr. Zhang frowned.
Several people suddenly fell into deep thought. For some reason, they always felt that things were a little strange.
"Brother Zheng is not in good health, why don't you come back with me first?" Even though nothing happened, they could still feel the strange looks around them. Several people suddenly felt on pins and needles and couldn't stay any longer.
"I'm fine. Tonight's grand event is a rare one. How can I let everyone miss it because of me? Just find a guest room and send me to rest first."
"That's fine. There are many guest rooms in Wanhua Tower."
A few people thought about it and realized that this was the best of both worlds.
However, you can't be so careless. They are all doctors, and they still have medical skills. Then they took each other's pulses and the result was just as the other party said, there was no serious problem.
However, a few people couldn't help but wonder, what was really going on with this violent cough? Could it be that he lost his breath when he was speaking just now? This must be too unlucky.
In the distance, Chu Feng picked up the tea bowl and took a sip, his expression unchanged at all. For someone who wanted to kill his family with such obscene words, it was a mercy not to take his life.
"Master Xu, the oiran selection is about to begin."
But at this moment, Xiao Cui's reminder suddenly came to my ears. I turned around and saw a graceful figure walking in from the side of the high platform.
