Chapter 223: Heavenly City: Qinglou
When Taoqiu's commerce began to prosper, industry began to rise, and education was gradually reformed by Dai Yan, Taoqiu's economy also developed rapidly. The thriving atmosphere of pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info naturally affected the original prosperity of Taoqiu City.
Before Dai Yan became the master of Taoqiu, the entire Taoqiu was the commercial center of the world, and a large number of materials and wealth were transported to Taoqiu by ship, and then transferred to the world from here, making the most primitive service industry in Taoqiu City.
The Dongcheng District of Taoqiu was originally the most affluent area of Taoqiu, and it itself has a large concentration of service industries. Here, entertainment is mainly for wealthy merchants!
Not to mention those high-end restaurants, there are so many rich people here, how can they do it without singing and dancing to help the fun? Therefore, the Dongcheng District of Taoqiu has a special Nulu street, although it does not have a centuries-old tradition like Linzi, but it is still much more developed than other big cities in the world!
For such an industry, if according to the words of some people who have a habit of cleanliness in later generations, it is definitely a contempt for women and a symbol of backwardness! However, Dai Yan doesn't think so at all!
Because in later generations, although my Huanghuang Celestial Dynasty banned this industry from the surface, it was known to the whole country in Dongguan, in the south, and even some people did not hesitate to cross provinces to try it. Overseas friends from Hong Kong and Taiwan also do not hesitate to come to this place in person, hoping to taste the high standard of service!
And even overseas, the developed countries of the truly free world cannot avoid the existence of such industries. Some developed countries have even openly passed laws to allow the industry to exist. It can be seen that where there is demand, there is a market, which is really the truth of the world!
Dai Yan has always liked to look at problems from the perspective of development, if you don't look at it from the perspective of morality, but from the perspective of a land lord, the existence of such an industry is beneficial to the development of Taoqiu!
You don't see the Dongguan of later generations, because of the existence of this industry and how much more investment, and finally make it a real world factory. And in order to make Qi rich and strong, Guan Zhong of Qi even let the government personally participate in this industry! As a lord who wants Taoqiu to become better, what reason does Dai Yan have to prohibit the existence of this industry?
Therefore, Dai Yan only standardized the management of this industry. First of all, he collected flower donations from the Qinglou in the entire Taoqiu City, after all, they are also local enterprises in Taoqiu, and they should always pay the taxes, right?
Subsequently, Dai Yan standardized the management of it. Since this era was a real feudal period in Chinese history, the Song Kingdom itself, as a country with a long history, also had some remnants of slavery, and there were indeed many inhumane administrations in the Qinglou.
Dai Yan supervised these Qinglou through the newly established mounted police in Taoqiu, and even the urban management, not only to carefully identify the origin of the **, but also to try not to let there be prostitution near Taoqiu. As for the internal management of the Qinglou, the Yi government also issued a mandatory notice, requiring all Qinglou not to use violent means to force ** to work!
After that, Dai Yan passed a decree against all Qinglou brothels: all ** who pick up customers must go to a specific area of Taoqiu every three months to check their health, and violators will definitely be hit by Taoqiu Yi!
Under this series of compulsory and effective measures, Taoqiu's green house industry seems to have been washed. In the entire industry, those low-end positioning and rough internal management of the Qinglou were the first to be eliminated, and all the remaining Qinglou were also trembling, just to ensure that their industry would not disappear completely, and they did not dare to say anything!
And for the interest of these people, Dai Yan is still quite satisfied. However, for the eyes of these people, Dai Yan is very contemptuous! The Qinglou was made like this by them, it was completely a place to sell meat, and there was no innovation for hundreds of years, which was really intolerable to Dai Yan!
Of course, Dai Yan does not want people of this era to see what the service of "Guan-style 36-style" is like, after all, even in later generations, people who can do this full set of services are completely open in body and mind, even if this era is more open than most of the time in ancient China, but it is not as good as that in later generations!
Another reason, after all, Dai Yan is married to a man who is a princess of Zhao Kingdom, this fierce princess has some fierce reputation at home, if Dai Yan launches such a BT trick and reaches the ears of that one, even if he will not be kneeling on the washboard, but the concubines who followed the princess to marry to Taoqiu, he will definitely not be able to contact in the short term!
In order to teach Taoqiu's Qinglou industry what is a truly high-quality service, Dai Yan acquired several Qinglou through Taoqiu Qianzhuang, and then renovated all their internal decorations and connected the original Qinglou together.
Subsequently, through the relationship of Puyangxing, he introduced a number of high-quality Zhao girls from Handan, Zhao State, and then through the relationship of Bailong, he recruited several women with excellent singing skills to come to Taoqiu to Xinzheng and Weiguo Yewang in South Korea.
The Zhao Nu introduced by Puyangxing is not only outstanding in appearance, but also has a very high level in dance. Dai Yan then asked those women with excellent singing skills to teach these Zhao girls to sing Zheng Wei's voice!
Although Confucius once called Zheng Wei's voice the voice of the beautiful and the voice of the country, Dai Yan has never disdained such a view. The demise of a country has something to do with politics, military, economy, etc., and it's better to say, what can it have to do with music?
Zheng Weizhiyin, in this era, is much more popular than Cheng Zhou's Yayin, and it can be said that it is the pop music of this era! If you apply the common sense of later generations, it is actually easy to understand: although red songs have rich historical significance and can represent many spirits, in terms of popularity, it must be inferior to those popular pop music, and even those "divine comedies" that spread all over the streets and alleys, right?
After testing Zhao Nu in dance and cultivating music, Dai Yan added another job to them: the edification of literature.
In this era, there is no better literature in the world than the Book of Songs. As the most famous literary work of the era, it has not been over-interpreted in the same way as later generations, and many of the poems are actually understood according to their original meaning: love songs sung by men and women.
Let ** learn the "Book of Songs", if it is placed in the imperial society of later generations, it will definitely be appalling. Even today's reality is absolutely incredible! Because the "Book of Songs", after all, is something that only elegant aristocrats are qualified to learn and interpret, how can prostitutes at the bottom of society be qualified to learn such excellent works?
After the introduced Zhao Nu has also been edified in dance, music, and literature, the next thing is to package them. As soon as he thought of this, it reminded Dai Yan of the beauty he had given to the prince of Qi State, and now the beauty of King Qi is Xia Yingchun.
Xia Yingchun's family background is extremely peculiar, and she is the descendant of the rumored Xia Ji. As one of the three major powers, Zhao also has many declining nobles in its country. After all, the Jin State was the overlord of the world, but it destroyed many countries, and it had many nobles in its own country, plus foreign talents who came to the Jin Kingdom to defect, in terms of the number of well-known families, there are few in the world compared with the Jin Kingdom!
Among the three Jin families, the territory allocated by Zhao is actually the largest, and the reform of the law reform in the country of Zhao is actually far less powerful than the reform of Li Kui of Wei, which also leads to the retention of many noble descendants of the Jin State within the Zhao State!
As long as Dai Yan asks Pu Yangxing to do a little research, he can package these Zhao girls who have been introduced, and say that they are the daughters of the destroyed clan of the Jin Kingdom, the descendants of the Zhi family, and the daughters of the declining Fan family.
Such hype techniques, for Dai Yan, there is not the slightest pressure!
Sure enough, when Dai Yan was the boss behind the scenes, Pu Yangxing walked to the front of the stage to build the new opening of the Qinglou Xiaoyaoju, which immediately caused an uproar in the entire Taoqiu Qinglou industry!
Xiaoyaoju is different from the Qinglou that only provides meat sales services in the past, to be exact, it does not provide meat sales services at all!
For such behavior, Dai Yan instructed Pu Yangxing to make a definition for him: Selling art is not selling oneself! Xiaoyaoju does have such qualifications!
In the eyes of outsiders, the ** here is not only noble, but also after the famous nobles. And his talent is so brilliant that those who have seen the world are amazed. These ** not only sing with a pleasant voice, dance movements are beautiful, but also rare is that their aristocratic temperament makes the merchants of Taoqiu very excited!
This kind of aristocratic temperament not only has the compulsory training of Dai Yan, but also has the results obtained by the edification of poetry, and such a noble temperament directly makes those merchants ashamed of themselves! Then under the slogan of "selling art without selling oneself", a certain lowly characteristic appeared in men's hearts: the more things they can't get, the more they pay attention to them!
This directly makes the large-scale banquet and drinking activities in Taoqiu in the future have to specially invite these talented women from Xiaoyaoju to come, otherwise the grade of the entire banquet will be lowered!
And the reputation of the free house has also spread throughout Taoqiu. The entire Qinglou industry in Taoqiu has also begun to re-understand this industry!
