It was a rare sunny day on the twenty-first day of the lunar month, Cao Yi got up early as usual to exercise, bath and change clothes, and then leisurely ate breakfast, and then set off with everyone to go to the Drunken Immortal Building, during which Tan Yun came over early to ask Cao Yi for peace, and then relied on not leaving, Cao Yi couldn't help laughing when she saw it, she was wordless to force Cao Yi to hurry up, and then hurry to the Drunken Immortal Building, this little girl was thinking about the Oiran competition held in the Drunken Immortal Building today.

"Tan Yun, don't worry, this game didn't start so early, at least it didn't officially start until after lunch, otherwise there would be no one to watch, who would others show for?" Cao Yi nodded Tanyun's white and tender forehead and said with a smile.

"Childe, I'm not in a hurry, I'm just ...... I'm just ......" Tan Yun also wanted to explain.

"Okay, you just don't want you, I still have to bathe and change clothes, what, do you want to rob you of your duty to attack your sister?"

In the end, Tan Yun could only leave one step at a time.

Wait until the drunken fairy building, find that the decoration of the Oiran competition has been completely laid, presumably it was made overnight last night, at this time the colorful silk on the upper floor is displayed, lined up in a long row, it looks very festive and lively.

At this time, the Drunken Immortal Building, unless it was originally a person in the Drunken Immortal Building, no one else was allowed to enter at will. In addition to Cao Yi's exclusive seat on the third floor of the West Building, which was not handed over, all the remaining seats and tables were handed over to the government for processing during the twenty-first day of the lunar month to the twenty-third day of the lunar month.

In addition, if people who do not have an invitation want to come in, it is also very convenient, they only need to pay the money, if there is no invitation and want to sit down, they need to hand over one hundred taels of silver, and each box can carry five people. This is only the most basic entry fee, after paying the money in, if you want to send flowers, it is a bouquet of ten taels of silver, one tael of silver a flower.

As for if you want to eat and drink something, you need to buy it from Zuixianlou, but Cao Yi, as a conscientious businessman, will definitely not do anything to raise prices at this special moment, but has done some preferential things, such as Taibai drunk and Qinglian wine are buy four altars and get one altar free, and rich eggs buy five and get one free, and so on.

According to Cao Yi's own thinking about the seat of the drunken immortal building and the internal space, it is estimated that there are about 2,000 spectators who can enter the Oiran competition, and those who really have an invitation or spend money to buy a seat are estimated to be only 200 people, and the rest should be some vassal and elegant people, come to watch the game, meet some people, so as to pave the way for their own development in the future.

People who are really not rich or expensive, in fact, there is a high probability that there are two hundred people, and when the time comes, they will contribute more than eighty percent of the income in this Oiran competition, and when the competition begins, there are many people who send a few bouquets, dozens of bouquets, hundreds of bouquets, and maybe even thousands

The person who bouquets flowers, once someone sends thousands of bouquets, is bound to become a topic that everyone talks about that day. Whether it is the person who sends the flowers, or the famous geisha who is sent the flowers, they can gain great fame, and the limelight is bound to be unique for a while.

However, compared to the grand occasion of Yangzhou and the capital, it will definitely be slightly inferior, it is said that in the capital alone, the internal Oiran of Fan Lou has spent a lot of money, giving away tens of thousands of silver, the degree of boldness is really staggering......

On the first day, the order of the performance of more than 100 girls was determined by drawing lots, but sometimes it was deliberately adjusted artificially. For example, the top cards of the four major Qinglou will be staggered, or some other girls with a better reputation in the Qinglou to avoid too fierce competition in a short period of time, which will lead to the embarrassing situation of being cold after **.

Generally, at the beginning, a well-known or strong person will be arranged to open the show, and then a strong one will be interspersed every few people, so that the audience will always maintain their enthusiasm and participation. At this time, the order of the game has been posted in the open space of the middle building, for everyone to watch and know, and an empty card list is erected next to it, and some of the excellent poems performed by the girls will be copied down and posted on it, so that more people can watch and enjoy, but when transcribing, it will naturally ask which talent wrote it, and then mark it.

The poetry of the talented man is sung by the beautiful woman to become famous, and the beautiful woman relies on the poetry of the talented man to enhance her fame, and the elegance is nothing more than that.

At noon, there were people who entered the drunken fairy building with invitations one after another, and there were many people who paid money to come in, and there were only so many positions, and sometimes the location was slightly better and didn't come in advance. In the past, the red-sleeved musk moon raider and others would be on duty in each building, and guests would generally come forward to entertain and say a few words when they entered this building, but today they are no longer used, they are all brought forward by the government, just let the waiters listen to the government's dispatch. The government told the building how many floors and what location, and the waiter sent the person over.

Later, Mad Gong and Lu Lao also came over, these two people came over, Cao Yi naturally wanted to visit their private seat, so he took red sleeves to say hello, and as a result, Mad Fair ran to Lu Lao's private seat, saying that it was boring to watch alone anyway, so it was better to stay together, and the other private seat would be taken back by the people of the government, whether it was arranged for others or sold, it was okay.

Cao Yi then asked Red Sleeves to arrange for rich eggs, Qinglian wine and some other dishes to be sent over, and said with a smile: "The two old men are not willing to come, it is difficult to get this today, boy, I naturally want to be hospitable!" At the end, Cao Yi added with a smile: "Crazy man, Lu Lao, these things don't need money, it doesn't matter if you let go of eating!" If you're not having enough to eat, pack it too! ”

Of course, this is just a joke, with the status of these two people, how could they do such a thing. Both laughed and scolded: "Get out! After laughing, the madman sat there, looked at Cao Yi obliquely, and teased: "In the name of Zhaozheng, your first genius in Jiangning, there must be many girls who would rather recommend pillows in exchange for your poems!" Let's tell the old man who you wrote to this time

A poem? ”

Cao Yi was so teased by the mad man and didn't know how to answer for a while, and the mad man saw this scene, widened his eyes and asked gossipingly, "What, Zhaozheng Xiaoyou, did you really write poems to people this time?" ”

Cao Yi nodded, "A few days ago, when my rich egg and flower language soap were on the market, I invited the fish mystery of Jinfeng Lou to endorse the soap, presumably the madman Lu Lao had also heard of it, so he promised to give her a few poems at that time, and a few days ago, I happened to be free, so I wrote four poems and sent them over." ”

Lu Lao snorted at this time and said: "I get angry when I mention this 'endorsement', and the good 'endorsement' is used by you as the current spokesperson, which is really insulting!" ”

The mad man laughed: "Lu Gong, don't blame Zhaozheng, this kind of endorsement is unusual, the effect is outstanding, Confucius Sage has said that it is better to believe in a book than to have no book, so this word 'endorsement' from "Shangshu" is just used by Zhaozheng to learn and use, just to fulfill the wishes of Sage Confucius." ”

Lu Lao pointed his finger at the mad man, blew his beard and glared at him for a while, and said angrily: "Mad man, you ...... You...... How can you be so nonsense! ”

"Teacher, the mad man is just wild and uninhibited, with the legacy of Wei and Jin! So do whatever you want! Cao Yi said with a smile.

"Haha, Zhao Zheng still understands me!" Laughing openly.

Cao Yi said a few more words in the private seat, then left to visit the prefect Yang Gong, as the organizer and real adjudicator of this Oiran Competition, and he also single-handedly decided that the venue of the Oiran Competition would be placed in the Zuixian Building from the three options of the open space of the military camp in Jiangning City, the big grassland outside the Egret Continent and the Zuixian Building. This is a mutually beneficial thing, a military camp training ground to hold a green building event after all, the reputation is not good, the Egret Island is a little far away, especially at night back and forth is more inconvenient, only the drunken immortal building has a large enough venue, and is on the Qinhuai River, then ten miles of Qinhuai over the hundred green buildings can take the painting boat to come, very convenient.

"Yang Gong, thank you for choosing the venue for the Oiran competition in the Drunken Immortal Building, the younger generation is grateful!" Cao Yi faced Yang Gong Shi a junior.

"Haha, the nephew doesn't need to be polite, it is your drunken immortal building with the best conditions, and I only chose the most suitable one of the three, and it was also our government that took advantage of you and requisitioned your restaurant to let you open for three days, but don't worry, in other aspects, I will definitely compensate you." Yang Gong did not specifically say what compensation there was, Cao Yi naturally did not ask more, a few days ago Uncle Wang went to Hangzhou to buy land by the West Lake, it was Yang Gong who wrote a letter to Hangzhou Zhizhou, and asked Uncle Wang to bring it over, which made this transaction so easy, and Cao Yi was naturally grateful for it.

"Yang Gong, your wine and delicacies will be sent to you first, if there are any other requirements, Yang Gong can inform the waiter later, this table is considered to be invited by the juniors Yang Gong, and Yang Gong is invited to give a thin face, haha!"
