Recently, residents in the northern part of Pyongyang discovered a strange thing: "Li Yuanyu", a wealthy businessman who had just moved here, first kept asking people to transport their petals to his home, and after some days, when people passed by his neighborhood, they could always smell an intoxicating aroma.

There was a lot of discussion about what the smell was about, but no one could say why.

Naturally, they won't know what it is, because that thing is originally a product that does not belong to this era.

These fragrances are emitted by Li Yin when he was making perfume, and the perfume is the weapon that Li Yin used to strengthen aristocratic women and young ladies.

On this day, as soon as night fell, Li Yin took a bottle of perfume that had just been developed and went out in a carriage.

The perfume Li Yin has now developed, but he still needs to sell this thing so that those aristocratic women and ladies can know the charm of perfume.

On the bank of the muddy water in the south of the city, it has always been a place with charming scenery, the green buildings are lined up, there are many flower boats, the fat ring is thin and thin, provokes the men to be intoxicated, every night, countless dignitaries and nobles, merry and talented people linger here.

Recently, this muddy water bank has become more lively than usual, because the annual Oiran selection contest is about to begin.

Although this year's Oiran Contest is much smaller than in previous years due to the war, it is still the most important event in Pyongyang in recent days, and what could be more elegant for men who do not have to go to war than to witness the birth of a new Oiran with their own eyes?

For men, the Oiran Contest is a fun event in their spare time, but for women who are about to choose an Oiran, it is not so easy, because for them, it is a major event related to their life's fate.

Those who can participate in the selection of Oiran are generally the top brands of the Qinglou or the famous boat owners in the private flower boat, because the private flower boat has greater autonomy, it is an honor to be able to participate in the election, which greatly increases its own value, and it is a good thing to win, and it is acceptable to lose.

But for those top names in Qinglou, the pressure on this Oiran selection is still quite great, because each Oiran of Qinglou generally only has one chance to participate in the election in his life, which is not because there is any limit, but because if he loses, he will have to wait for another year.

A year may be a blink of an eye for ordinary people, but for a woman in the Qinglou, there are too many things that have changed in a year.

For example, newcomers continue to emerge, this year's top card, the next year or not the top card is not necessarily, and, the candidate for the Oiran must be a clear person, and it is not easy for the Qinglou woman who has participated in the Oiran to maintain her innocence in this year's time.

Because the Oiran is the cash cow of the Qinglou, in order to make the Oiran make more money for the Qinglou, the old bustard has opened the value of the Oiran to the sky, and there are few people who can comb the current Kui, and there are not many in the entire Pyongyang City.

However, the price of the woman who failed to choose the Oiran is relatively low, and many wealthy merchants, princes and nobles like to spend a lot of money on the night of the end of the Oiran election, so that the woman who loses the Oiran loses the identity of the Qing Qi overnight, and naturally cannot participate in the next Oiran Contest.

Baihualou is one of the eight green buildings on the bank of the river, Baihualou is the top brand Cuiyun girl who is running for the Oiran this time, this Cuiyun girl is sitting in front of the dresser at this time, her eyebrows are furrowed, and she is thinking about the election of the Oiran with some worries.

As the top brand of Baihualou, Cuiyun girl is naturally top-notch in appearance, but among the fifteen women who participated in the Oiran, she is a little ordinary, and she has two advantages, one is that she has a proud career line, and the other is that she has a soft body and dances very well.

Miss Cuiyun is worried now because she feels that with only her two advantages, she is afraid that it will be a little difficult to win the position of Oiran.

"Miss, Aunt Shen asked you to meet a guest named Li Yuanyu." A maidservant girl walked in and said that she was the maid of Miss Cuiyun, and the Aunt Shen in her mouth was the old bustard of this Baihualou.

Miss Cuiyun said with a dissatisfied face: "Haven't I had to receive guests these days?" ”

The maidservant said: "That person seems to have given Aunt Shen a lot of silver......

Miss Cuiyun snorted, walked out of the sleeping room, and came to the living room connected to the room, and at the table in the living room, "Li Yuanyu" was already drinking by himself.

Miss Cuiyun sat down in another seat, "Do you want to listen to the music, or do you want to watch me dance?" ”

Li Yin ate a few fried peanuts on the table and shook his head.

Miss Cuiyun's face turned red, "I'...... I don't sleep with guests, so if you want to sleep with someone, please go find another sister. ”

Li Yin shook his head again, clapped his hands, and then took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and put it in front of Miss Cuiyun.

"What is this?" Miss Cuiyun asked with a puzzled expression.

Li Yin smiled: "Open the cork, and you will know." ”

"Forgive me, you don't dare to play any tricks in Baihualou." Thinking to herself, Miss Cuiyun reached out and pulled out the cork, and an intoxicating fragrance immediately filled the air.

Cuiyun girl and the maidservant took a deep breath, this fragrance was as strong and pungent as the gouache they usually used, with a cool smell, very good, and it made people fascinated.

Miss Cuiyun looked at the porcelain vase in amazement, "This ...... What the hell is this thing? ”

Li Yin snapped and snapped his fingers, "This is my latest gouache, called perfume, I don't know if Miss Cuiyun likes it?" ”

Miss Cuiyun looked at the perfume with bright eyes, and thought to herself: "If I can get this thing, my chances of winning the Oiran election can be improved by at least two percent!" ”

"How much silver do you need to sell this thing?" Miss Cuiyun asked eagerly.

Li Yin said: "Not much, a thousand taels of silver!" ”

Miss Cuiyun lost her voice and said, "One thousand taels? Are you robbing money? ”

Li Yin smiled indifferently, "If someone else wants to buy it, I will sell it for a thousand taels, but since it is Miss Cuiyun who wants it, then I will give it to you for free." ”

After listening to Li Yin's words, Miss Cuiyun was shocked again, and her face was incredulous: "It's free...... Give it to me for free? ”

Li Yin recorked the perfume bottle and put it on Miss Cuiyun's hand, "Yes, I can give it to you for free, but you have to do something for me." ”

Miss Cuiyun looked at Li Yin vigilantly, hugged herself with both hands and said, "What do you want me to do?" I'm not a showman! ”

Li Yin laughed, "Don't worry, I won't let you do anything embarrassing, you just need to say a few words of advertising to everyone when you win the Oiran." ”
