"Then this Lei Liu'er is still a little interesting!" I sighed, "It's different from everyone else!" ”

"Brother Zhang is interested in her?" Yang Xiaoyin said to me with a smile.

"Where, just by you, I feel that she is a little different from what I imagined! It feels weird. I thought about it, and Lei Liu'er couldn't help but laugh.

Yang Xiaoyin drove to the ** villa after a while, thinking about dating Bai Ying at night, and gave up the idea of inviting Yang Xiaoyin to be with her, and told Yang Xiaoyin to invite her to dinner tomorrow to express her gratitude. Yang Xiaoyin smiled and said that she didn't need it, she didn't like to eat in a restaurant outside, it was better to cook it herself, I said that I would make a meal tomorrow and invite her to eat, she said that it was okay.

I took a taxi to Bai Ying's yard, Bai Ying was talking on the phone in the office, I sat down and made her a cup of coffee, and held it in front of her, I sat on her desk and lay on the table with my eyes firmly on her. Bai Yan also smiled when she saw me come in, swept away her tired face, she pointed to the phone and asked me to wait, and saw me lying on the table looking at her, touching my head with the palm of her hand.

"Did you workers pick it up and send it away?" Bai Ying finished the phone call, picked up the coffee I had brewed, blew on the hot air, and then asked me.

"Well, this should be out of Accra. You drink coffee first, see how busy you are. I stood up and walked behind the white seat, my hands gently kneading her shoulders.

"So well-behaved, nothing to do." Bai Bai enjoyed my massage and took a sip of coffee.

"You're right, girl, you have nothing to offer, you are either a traitor or a thief. Girl, I miss you, stay with me at night. I said with my face close to my white face.

"Hooligans!" Bai Bai laughed at me as she drank her coffee.

"Let me tell you a story! A little boy and a little girl, sitting together, the little girl asked the little boy what he was thinking, the little boy said I think the same, the little girl slapped him and said the little boy hooligan! I grinned as I stood behind the white white and laughed.

"Wow, you're changing your way to say I'm a hooligan!" Bai Ying put down the coffee and stood up to make a gesture to hit me, her chair was turning, and she almost fell down when she turned, and I grabbed her and picked her up on the foot. "Alright, someone will come in later, let me down."

I put Bai Ying down, I sat down at the table and said to her, "By the way, how is the container and the excavator transportation arrangement?" ”

"It's all arranged, I'll ask you if you're with the car then, the excavator car must be slower when it goes, and there is no way to get two cars together." Surely the container truck drove fast, and the excavator flatbed truck drove slowly. Bai Yan pointed to the desk calendar on her desk and said, "I'll leave the morning after tomorrow!" ”

I called Wei Ergou and explained the situation, Wei Ergou said that the excavator was best to go in advance, I discussed it with Bai Ying, and the car that arranged the excavator will leave tomorrow during the day, and I will take the container car together the morning after tomorrow, so that the excavator can arrive early, so that it is convenient to use the excavator to lift the heavy things in the container to unload.

Bai Yi said that she was still busy, and that I could go to a seafarers' club in the dock to have a drink and wait for her, and I followed the direction she said to find the place, which was a duty-free shop in the dock, with a few tables, a sofa, a big TV, and a pool table. I ordered a bottle of 7-Up and sat on the sofa watching the ball game on TV, when suddenly my eyes were blindfolded by a pair of hands, and I turned my head to see that it was Lei Liuer.

"Brother Zhang, we are so fateful! I'll meet you here! Lei Liu'er looked at me with a grin. It turned out that Lei Liuer's aunt liked to go to the seamen's club to fish for foreign sailors, so she accompanied her aunt to visit here, and her aunt had already gone to work on an American ship. She didn't shy away from saying to me at all, "Brother Zhang, you must look down on people like us!" It doesn't matter, I can understand. You can look down on me, but I don't mind. Lei Liu'er sat next to me, ordered a bottle of beer, and poured it for me, "Brother Zhang, you may not believe it, I am a college student, I used to be colleagues with Sister Mengmeng, I also studied French, but I am a junior college, as for doing this business now, it is also fate to play with fate, my aunt and my mother are all in this business, I am not afraid of your jokes." Lei Liu'er talked to me vigorously, and also told me about their line of work in ancient times:

Speaking of the ancient "Qinglou", it originally referred to the luxurious and exquisite elegant house, and sometimes it was used as a synonym for the wealthy and high-ranking households, such as in the "Book of Jin: The Biography of Lu Yun": "Open the Zhumen in the south and look at the Qinglou in the north." There is also a poem in the late Tang Dynasty poet Shao Yu's "Sai Nu Xing": "The rich girl of the Qinglou is born with a master".

In the Tang Dynasty, the two meanings of "Qinglou" were still mixed and wrong, and there were even examples of one person's work and two meanings. For example, the famous poet Wei Zhuang of the Tang Dynasty wrote "Gui Gongzi": "The east of the Qinglou Imperial Garden on the avenue, the jade column immortal apricot is pressed red", which is related to the avenue and the high gate, and has nothing to do with the glamorous tour and wine color; In his "Pounding Practice", the Qinglou where "the moon spits out bright candles and candles, and the women of the Qinglou sing clothes songs" refers to the brothel.

After the Song and Yuan dynasties, and even in the Ming, Qing and Republic of China, the partial reference of "Qinglou" was used in the world, and it really became a special term for the land of fireworks. The prostitutes in the Qinglou were called female musicians in ancient times, that is, music and dance performers. In the Qin and Han dynasties, they were called "official prostitutes" and "camp prostitutes", and it was not until the Tang and Song dynasties that they were called "city prostitutes" and "private prostitutes", and they became prostitutes in the true sense of the word.

Qinglou is undoubtedly a special profession bred in ancient society, but it is precisely because of the existence of prostitutes in Qinglou that the rapid development of Chinese music, song and dance has been promoted.

Many dignitaries and nobles often invite local Qinglou famous prostitutes to play and sing whenever there is a happy event at home, and then the prostitutes' singing and dancing play a role in spreading culture. The reason why Liu Yong, a lyricist in the Song Dynasty, was a household name in his time and everyone knew it, was because Liu Yong often mixed in the Qinglou, so that his words were sung and got the Cheng dù of "all wells and watersides can sing willow words". And Wu Sangui in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, "rushing to the crown and being angry for a red face" also originated from Chen Yuanyuan, a famous prostitute in Qinglou. And the romantic stories of Qinhuai's famous prostitutes Liu Rushi, Dong Xiaowan, Li Xiangjun and others at that time have also become a swan song for the ages.

In ancient times, most of the green buildings were produced in large and medium-sized cities with bright lights, flowing gold and silver, and deformed consumption. And most of the prostitutes in Qinglou are poor women. First, because of their poor family background, they are forced to go out to earn a living, or they are betrayed, detained, or abducted by gangsters, and they fall into the road of selling themselves; the second is persecuted by the feudal marriage system, and as a child bride and unbearable abuse by her family, she goes into the fire pit in order to make a living; the third was abandoned by her husband and fell into fireworks; the fourth is "for the three aunts and six women" and "eight sisters and nine sisters" to lure and coerce with vanity and money; Fifth, it is easy to come from other places.

At that time, the brothels of Qinglou were divided into three, six, and nine, and there were also "star" level brothels, which can be seen at a glance from their names, and the names of the brothels of the first and second class Qinglou sounded quite elegant, called "courtyard" called "pavilion", or called "pavilion". In fact, it was also a "star" level brothel at that time. The prostitutes here, especially the famous prostitutes, are very generous, some call slaves and maids, and some spend money like dirt. Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black, and those who are close to officials are of course rich. The third and fourth class brothels are much more shabby, called "room", called "class", called "shop", and even called "lower place". Most of the prostitutes here are poor and angry masters. They are spiritually and spiritually devastated, exploited and oppressed. They laugh day and night to receive customers, even if they are sick, they are not immune. If they don't obey at all, they will be beaten, scolded, punished, and kneeled, and will not be given food, and those who will be beaten severely and then sold in the countryside.

The "boss" who runs the brothel in the Qinglou is called "Father-in-law Turtle" for men and "Old Bustard" for women. In the Qinglou where the ghost father-in-law is the boss, there is also a female "leader" in charge of management, who is responsible for instructing and supervising prostitutes to pick up customers. It also supervises the accounts and cash receipts and disbursements of the Accounts. The main deputy of the Qinglou where the bustard is the boss is the man or concubine of the bustard, commonly known as the "fish man". The main responsibility is to resolve disputes and liaise with the outside world, which is a pivotal role. Generally, the Qinglou is also equipped with attendants, commonly known as "turtle paws", who are responsible for monitoring the prostitutes' every move. Qinglou mainly relies on red-card prostitutes to support the scene to make money. Generally, there are at least a dozen rooms in the Qinglou, and there are more than a dozen prostitutes. Red card prostitutes always live in the biggest and best rooms. Most of the general Qinglou have rules and precepts, such as: one is not allowed to escape, two is not allowed to hot customers, three is not allowed to dump customers, four is not allowed to receive officialdom and kiln skins, five is not allowed to "steal live" when "opening", six is not allowed to hide money privately, seven is not allowed to post hot customers, and eight is not allowed to commit "eight big pieces" to say frustrating words.
