......

Time passed, and the day and tomorrow began to be dark, and the four days passed quickly.

Now that the preparations for the flower boat and the orchestra have been completed, everything is going well on Wang Luan's side, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.

Although the Oiran festival does not begin until the evening, the crowds on the shores of Lake Yanagi increase as early as 10 a.m. Countless merchants in Liuli City also took the opportunity to engage in activities, all kinds of full reductions and discounts have stimulated countless people's enthusiasm for consumption, and the Oiran Conference is a city-wide event.

It took only two days to prepare for the Oiran Tournament, and the other two days were spent traveling around, leaving footprints in various famous places in Liuli Castle under the guidance of local guides. He'd seen hot air balloon factories, visited assembly lines in steam locomotive factories, and even had an electrical lab for electric motors. After seeing so many things, he dared to be sure that the scientific and technological capabilities of this world were probably between the first and second industrial revolutions, and there were also metaphysical warriors and immortal cultivators.

......

In the afternoon, Bai Ye and the others returned to the Baiwei shipyard to make final preparations for the Oiran Conference.

Since the contestants in Liuli City are accustomed to parking the renovated flower boats in the lakeshore port, there is only one flower boat in the Baiwei Shipyard, which is not crowded at all. At this time, the lakeshore port has become a lively place second only to the shore of Liuhu Lake. Contestants who are familiar with each other happen to see each other and always have to talk a few words to show their modesty, or superficial friends who have a bad relationship take the opportunity to sneer at each other...... It shows a prosperous scene.

......

Soon, night fell, and many flower boats couldn't wait to sail into the lake to show their strength to the tourists and judges on the lakeshore.

The sound of bamboo and seer is faint, vague and floating, occasionally high-pitched, occasionally low, accompanied by the quiet singing and dancing of the oiran on the ship, which has a unique artistic conception.

There are more and more flower boats in the lake, all kinds of sounds are mixed together, but they are not noisy at all, only make people feel more profound, and the elegant music on those flower boats can make people calm their hearts and minds, and temporarily get rid of the red dust like immortals and saints.

Mo Neng, Xu Xue, and Wang Luan waited on the flower boat, and according to Bai Ye's opinion, they planned to sail the flower boat out of the shipyard after half an hour. And Bai Ye took Han Ge to the shore of the lake to play, so that he could see the performance of Wang Luan's flower boat from the perspective of passers-by, and if there was anything bad, he could modify it in time the next day.

The thick night is ruthlessly expelled by the lights on both sides of the lake, and the red and green lights reflected on the water surface seem to be another world, and now, both on the shore and in the water, both worlds celebrate this Oiran extravaganza.

Ordinary people and the rich and powerful walked on the shore of the lake to watch carefully, while the literati and artists sat in various pavilions and felt with their hearts, and the events of welcoming poems and writing words to congratulate were also a highlight of the Oiran Conference.

White Night walked slowly down the road. He found that there were very few people actually listening to music on both sides of the lakeshore, and most of them were playing or discussing the postures and looks of the contestants, and at the same time talking about some meat jokes and snacks. After a while, he walked to a restaurant, and the frolicking of the guests completely drowned out the music of the flower boats on the lake.

Seeing that Bai Ye and Han Ge were both dressed in gorgeous clothes and brocade robes, a waiter hurriedly walked over and said respectfully, "This guest, what do you want?"

"Hmm...... Find me a place on the second or third floor near the lake by the window. ”

......The waiter was a little embarrassed and a little surprised, because he had the impression that the rich would only choose private rooms, and the second and third floors were scattered.

"What's the matter? can't you do it?" Bai Ye looked at the waiter suspiciously.

The waiter looked apologetic, "Your Excellency, I'm really sorry, the second and third floors are scattered areas, and they are all full, and now only the boxes on the fifth, sixth, and seventh floors are left." ”

Hearing this, Bai Ye suddenly smiled, "I see, then I'll find a place by myself, thank you." After saying that, he casually threw two silver tickets to the waiter as a tip. Although there is no habit of tipping in Bu County, Golden Hook City and Furukawa County, there is one in Liuli City, and in line with the idea of following the local customs, he naturally will not resist this conventional rule.

Holding the silver ticket in his hand, looking at the backs of Bai Ye and Han Ge who walked upstairs, the waiter was stunned. Although there is a habit of tipping in Liuli City, the general tip amount is less than 50 copper coins, and the two silver tickets given by Bai Ye are worth 3,000 copper coins, which can be called a table of good dishes. He had never seen such a wealthy boss.

......

Walking to the third floor, Bai Ye raised his eyes and finally found a more suitable location in a corner. Although that seat has been occupied by a total of five people, two men and three women, there is no problem for ten people at that kind of round table, and there is still a lot of space. He walked over directly with Han Ge, "Hello, we are tourists from outside Liuli City, and we finally found a hotel that is convenient for watching the Oiran Conference competition, but ......" Speaking of this, he glanced at other places that were overcrowded, and then turned his head to look at the five young people, scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled: "It's really disturbing." ”

A young man withdrew his gaze from the window and turned to look at the white night, "Hmm...... Speaking of which, there are really not many seats now, for the sake of the children, come here, more people will be more lively. ”

"Eh, hehe, thank you. Bai Ye hurriedly led Han Ge to sit in the seat, and at the same time introduced himself: "My name is Bai Ye, her name is Han Ge, I came here from other places to play, thank you for your help." ”

The young man who made the invitation gesture waved his hand generously, "Relying on parents at home and friends outside, it's just a matter of raising your hands, so why worry about it." Speaking of this, he stretched out his hand to Bai Ye, "Hello, my name is Murong An." ”

Bai Ye smiled and stretched out his right hand to shake hands with Murong An, "Murong An, good name, catchy, nice to meet you." ”

Another man and three women also introduced themselves, namely Ye Xiong, Huang Li, Zixuan, and Mo Rong.

......

After talking, Bai Ye learned that the five of them were all students of the famous Fuche Academy in Liuli City. Because Liuli City held such a grand event, of course there would be a holiday in the school, and they could take the opportunity to run out and relax.

There were six plates of melons and fruits and two pots of tea on the table, but they didn't move much, and it was obvious that these five students had only been here for a short time.

Bai Ye reached out to bring dessert to the shy Han Ge, but found that there was a booklet under the fruit bowl. While handing the dessert to Han Ge, he took out the booklet, only to see that the cover of the booklet was written in block letters: "Oiran Contest Contestant Picture Book". When you open the palm-sized booklet, there are not only detailed portraits of the contestants, but also the origin of the contestants, the names of the songs and dances they are good at, their birthplaces, ages and their units, and the information is very complete.

Ye Xiong noticed Bai Ye's movements, and explained casually: "You are a foreigner, you may not know, every time before the start of the Oiran Conference, there will be people in the city market who peddle and sell this kind of pamphlet, and there are some hardcover versions with more refined information, and I don't know where they got the information, it is estimated that there are some py transactions with the City Lord's Mansion." ”

At this time, there was a table of people in the distance, probably talking about the place where they were having fun, and one of them had a middle-aged man's voice suddenly became louder, "Hahahaha, this girl is good, I must her, hahaha!

Before he could laugh twice, another sarcastic voice sounded at the same table, "Look at your lewd and cheap virtue of the sperm in the brain! Don't pee on yourself, hahahaha! And fuck her? Are you worthy? I'm afraid you don't even have the money to open a house! Hahahahaha!"

As soon as this voice fell, many people laughed.

The overly excited person saw that everyone was laughing at him, and slapped the table angrily, "What are you laughing at? I can't eat, think about it! You laugh at me? You're not the same? Damn! I must go to Zuichun Building tonight to vent my anger!"

The laughter stopped, and it became more and more lively.

Bai Yewu looked at the booklet in his hand and found that all the women on it were all national and fragrant, and none of them were bad. Or stunning and moving, or durable and charming, each with its own merits and different shapes.

Seeing Bai Ye carefully flipping through the booklet, Ye Xiong couldn't help but sigh: "I guess, this year's Oiran will be taken away by the top card of Chunhong Mansion again." ”

Hearing this, Murong An, who had been looking at the scene of the flower boats on the lake through the window, couldn't help but turn around and retort, "I don't think so, although the Spring Red Mansion has won the Oiran Conference for two consecutive years, this year's Oiran must belong to my Hongyin girl!"

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the three girls at the same table couldn't help but laugh when they heard Murong An's words.

Zixuan: "Yo, this hasn't passed the door yet, and you're already calling Jiang Hongyin like this?"

Huang Li couldn't help but smile and glanced at Zixuan, "Look at what you said, our Rong'an child and the girl Jiang Hongyin haven't even spoken yet, and they seem to be almost passing the door, hahahaha~"

Mo Rong sighed helplessly, "Alas~ I see, did that Hongyin girl practice some evil arts, and actually made Murong An in our school so fascinated, I really can't figure it out, I think she only has two eyes and a mouth." ”

Hearing these words, Murong An was not angry, looked around the table, raised his head with his chest, and said tenderly: "You will never understand, why do you have to be with her if you like someone? Even if I just look at it from a distance like this, I am already satisfied." ”

Ye Xiong shook his head helplessly, "Alas, it's really hopeless, since I became infatuated with the Venerable Master's Hongyin girl, I began to save money and save money by doing odd jobs everywhere, just to be able to see people from a distance at the Oiran Conference, tsk! Love is really great." ”

"Poof~Hahaha~" Huang Li smiled: "Mmmmmm~ Great, great, great, great, if it weren't for our Murong An being so generous, we wouldn't be able to sit here and watch the game comfortably~"
