Next Chapter

Bai Xiaoman wandered aimlessly on the street, full of food and drink, and the time spent in Jincheng made her deeply realize that the capitals under the world actually look similar, no matter how prosperous and lively they are, there is really nothing new when they see too much. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Bored and returned to the inn, he found that the inn was full of people, and the number of people was several times more than usual, Bai Xiaoman grabbed the busy guy and asked him what was going on.

The guy blurted out and said, "The Oiran show in the Lanyue Pavilion is about to begin, and these people have come from all over the country to watch. ”

"Show? What Oiran show? ”

The guy slapped his head: "That's right, you're a girl and a foreigner, you definitely don't know." Lanyue Pavilion is the largest song and dance workshop in Jincheng, every year to hold the Oiran grand performance, a total of ten Oiran, all of them are one in a million beauties, and the talent is both complete, the piano, chess, calligraphy, painting and dance performances are everything, the most important thing is that the person who bought the ticket can participate in the bidding, who pays the highest price, the beauty will belong to whom, perform for him alone, if you look at each other right, pay for the ransom, or marry, Lanyue Pavilion will not stop. In recent years, Lanyue Pavilion has changed its owner, and the grand show is getting better and better, and its reputation has spread all over the country, and every year in these days, the rich people of the country, or the romantic gentlemen will rush over, even if they don't participate in the bidding, it's a great blessing to just watch and watch. If the girl wants, she can also go and join in the fun. The first wave of extravaganza is tomorrow night. ”

The man's upper and lower lips flew, and his words were extremely slippery, Bai Xiaoman saw that his forehead was sweating, presumably because he was busy before and after, and specially explained this to himself, and took out a small piece of broken silver to reward him, and the guy smiled happily.

Yes, being idle is also idle, so it's better to join in the fun, isn't this equivalent to a talent show? It has been several years since she came to this strange time and space, and Bai Xiaoman's life circle can be described as extremely monotonous, this kind of amorous civil, she has not seen it, and it just happens to be an eye-opener.

Although the folk customs of this era are relatively open, quite a bit like the appearance of the Tang Dynasty in China, it is common for women to go out shopping at night, but when it comes to going to visit the Qinglou, tsk, there are still very few.

Bai Xiaoman changed into a plain white men's gown and dressed himself as an ordinary scholar, although he still looked very different from a man, at least this dress was not ostentatious.

The Oiran show is indeed worthy of its name, Bai Xiaoman is very happy to see it, but for the ancient talent show, Bai Xiaoman was still in the mood of appreciation at the beginning of the period, and after watching a few, he couldn't help but feel bored, and after each performance, the people under the stage competed to bid, as if auctioning a meat bun, once the deal was sold, within tonight, the buyer did anything by mood, and the so-called Oiran who was still loved on the stage just now has been reduced to fish on the knife board.

Bai Xiaoman is really hard to accept, after all, he is a modern person in his bones, and he always feels that this is too unhuman.

I didn't want to look any further, so I got up and was about to leave, and when I was about to open the door of the small private room, the door next door was knocked open from the inside very suddenly, and the force was too strong, and it smashed directly on the door panel on Bai Xiaoman's side, the door was knocked open by this force, and Bai Xiaoman's hand was flicked hard at that time, and the finger joints were red and swollen.

Bai Xiaoman was full of anger and rushed to the top of his head, rushed out in one step and shouted to the person who came out next door: "What are you crazy about!" You've hurt someone! ”

The two people who came out of the next room were both men, one of them was a man in a green shirt, who rushed to Bai Xiaoman with a drunken body, and his speech was quite clear: "Roar~ Who did you hit the master?" You? It's still a jade-faced brother! Hahaha. ”

The laughter was light, and he stretched out his hand and gestured to hook Bai Xiaoman's chin.

Bai Xiaoman also laughed: "Yes, yes, it's Uncle Ben who hit it!" ”

As he spoke, he knocked the man in the green shirt off with a 'snap'.

"Presumptuous!" Another man stepped forward, Bai Xiaoman noticed the man in white, he held the man in green shirt, his face was displeased, and he whispered: "Zifei, don't make trouble, hurry up, there's no time." ”

Then he turned his head and apologized to Bai Xiaoman: "We were abrupt just now, I'm sorry, but this son is not something you want to do it, we are at fault first, so I won't worry about you today." ”

After speaking, he shouted behind him: "Don't hurry up and hold on!" ”

Out of nowhere, a few black-clothed servants came up, wanting to take the man in green shirt away.

The man in the green shirt broke free and smiled nonchalantly: "I didn't have time to enjoy the Oiran I bought today, and I have already lost a lot of money, but it's okay, it's not bad to come across this, take it away!" I still love you! ”

While speaking, he raised his hand again and wanted to touch Bai Xiaoman's face, Bai Xiaoman raised his hand again in anger, but the man in the green shirt knew that she would make a move, and his hand was raised and buckled, but he grabbed Bai Xiaoman's wrist, making her unable to move for a while.

Bai Xiaoman was stunned, he didn't expect that the man in green shirt in front of him was still a guy who knew martial arts, he was stunned, and stretched out a hand from the armpit of the man in green shirt, and the man in green shirt immediately let go of Bai Xiaoman, bent his elbow and split back, the arm was cut horizontally, and the other hand stretched out from his waist, pulled back, trapped the other hand of the man in green shirt, and forcefully pulled his hands back, and the whole man in green shirt was pulled back.

Bai Xiaoman, who was free, looked at the man in white who made the shot.

He beckoned to the servants: "Hurry up and take your masters, if it's too late, watch your heads!" ”

Everyone went up together and finally restrained the man in the green shirt and quickly went downstairs to leave.

The man in white turned around again: "It's so abrupt, I'm sorry." With that, he turned around and quickly disappeared into the stairwell.

Bai Xiaoman felt inexplicable, fortunately upstairs was a private room, everyone was watching the performance in their respective boxes, the grand occasion was unprecedented, the applause, the bidding, the response of the guys running the hall came and went, and no one paid attention to the small episode that just happened here.

Bai Xiaoman returned to the inn, thinking about it, he was a little distressed, he spent so much gold and watched the scene of several ancient beauties being auctioned, which was really a loss.

I've thought about it, and by the way, it's time to plan for the future.

People can't have no goals, otherwise every day is muddy, in modern times every day complaining about the need to go to work, now think about it, God invented work, in fact, to prevent human beings from suffering from depression. In her current state, she doesn't worry about her livelihood every day, but she has nothing to do, in order not to think about those sad things, she eats, drinks and has fun all day long, or thinks about life, and she is about to become a philosopher.

Although I haven't figured out what to do yet, I can start by starting a family, starting a family, and then thinking about starting a business.

She is alone, it is better to buy a home first, this month in Jincheng wandering, Bai Xiaoman found that one of the biggest benefits of Jincheng is that because it is the capital of Xuanguo, Xuanguo is a rich country, so it is very prosperous, trade is very extensive, there are everyone in the city, people from the Western Regions, Minghai, and Southern Xinjiang abound, and even Cangguo, which is at war, can find many of them.

Such an inclusive and accepting city is undoubtedly the best place for Bai Xiaoman to live.

Thinking of it, he did it, Bai Xiaoman quickly found a Zhuang Zhai Ya store and put forward a few requirements for the house.

First, the size is moderate, not too big, can't live, and wasteful; Second, there must be good law and order, and the picture must be quiet; Third, life needs to be convenient, and it is convenient to buy daily necessities and enter and exit.

After hearing this, the guy immediately smiled, saying that there was a house that completely met her requirements, and he could take her to check it out immediately. Bai Xiaoman was happy to go, he was satisfied everywhere, the house was built very distinctively, and it was very elegant, the money was spent in the dark, the exquisite dark carvings on the pillars of various gatehouses, and the rockery in the garden in the southeast corner were all spent a lot of thought. It's not as conspicuous as showing off his wealth in front of the pillar door, but Bai Xiaoman likes this kind of thought, and at a glance he knows that the owner is an elegant person, with a high pursuit of life, and he is not unconventional.

And this house is well decorated, you only need to tidy up a little, and you can live in it with daily necessities, which is quite convenient.

Overall, Bai Xiaoman is very satisfied, but the price is a bit expensive, and it is not accommodating, and he must pay the money within two days.

Bai Xiaoman thought about it, his heart was crossed, and he said, "Okay, notify the landlord to prepare the deed tomorrow." ”

When he returned to the inn, Bai Xiaoman picked up the cash in hand, and compared it to the price of the house, it was far behind, so he had to take his belongings and go to the pawnshop to change.

Bai Xiaoman asked the innkeeper that the fastest, largest and fairest pawnshop in Jincheng belonged to Yutong Dang on Front Street.

rushed there with his things, the guys in the store greeted him with a smile, Bai Xiaoman was unambiguous, and asked directly: "Where is your shopkeeper?" ”

Mentang stuck his head out from behind the counter: "Girl, let's take a look first, our shopkeeper, I'm afraid it will take a while to come down, there is something to do, busy." ”

Bai Xiaoman walked over and took out a handkerchief from his pocket, opened it and glanced at the doorway, then looked around, picked a seat and sat down, and said lightly: "Don't worry, I'll wait for him." ”

The doorman immediately beckoned the man to go upstairs.

After a while, Bai Xiaoman was invited to the upstairs hall.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man, and after the two said a few polite words, Bai Xiaoman took out a handkerchief again and lifted it, a string of red agate beads with bright color, full of plump, uniform size and delicate texture.

The shopkeeper's eyes immediately lit up, studied it carefully, and glanced at Bai Xiaoman from time to time.

Bai Xiaoman finished shouting the price, and without waiting for the shopkeeper to speak, he waved his hand and said: "I don't know how to do it, and I won't break the professional terms with you, but this bead was given to me by a friend, and he told me how much it is worth. If you bargain with me again, it will be too unkind, right? It is rumored that Yutong is the fairest, is this how you do business? ”

The shopkeeper touched his beard, didn't make a sound, his eyes flickered, Bai Xiaoman got up, and put away the bead string: "Although I urgently need money, I don't have to use it, and it's not impossible to wait for a while, since you Yutong don't want to do this business, I'll find another place." ”

Not surprisingly, the shopkeeper stopped Bai Xiaoman, and explained with a smile: "The price that the girl wants is not a small amount, even if it is our Yutong, we have to go to the money bank to cash it out, and I hope the girl will understand." ”

Of course, Bai Xiaoman can understand, and after waiting for an afternoon, as soon as the money arrived, Bai Xiaoman sent someone to carry it and went to the dental store to complete the deed transaction procedures with the real estate owner.

Finally the house was done, Bai Xiaoman felt a lot more down-to-earth, and his mood was also relaxed, especially after seeing the owner, he learned that he had been seriously ill for several years, and had to sell all his properties to visit famous doctors for treatment.

So she was ready to reward herself for eating a good meal, came to the largest restaurant in Jincheng, ordered a table of good dishes, and returned to the inn after eating and drinking, thinking that she had to ask the master to clean up the new house, and dry it for a few days, and then move to the new home.

Thinking about it, he was excited, his steps slowed down unconsciously, there was a strange movement behind him, Bai Xiaoman stood still, and there was no sound behind him.

Bai Xiaoman's hairs stood on end.
