Night fell, and the mirror-like moon hung in the sky, casting the light of flowing water on the earth.

Upstairs in Yixiang, Liu Xu and Wang Zongyuan were chatting and laughing with the white master of the county government.

Liu Xu originally invited Wang Zeng to come with him tonight, but Wang Zongyuan disciplined Wang Zeng very strictly, and refused for Wang Zeng on the grounds that Wang Zeng was still young and that it was easy to go from thrift to luxury and from luxury to thrift.

However, there is one less Wang Zeng, but there is one more beauty.

At this moment, the red girl Ye Shuchen who was leaning on the incense building on their table was accompaniing.

Miss Shu Chen is wearing a light green dress today, with a purple duck hairpin obliquely in the flowing cloud bun, a thin silver tassel hanging down, and a silver butterfly hairpin in front of her forehead. Miss Shu Chen's surname is gentle, and her skin is like snow, her eyes are like water, and the corners of her mouth are smiling, which is more approachable. When everyone spoke, she didn't interject a sentence or two, and the atmosphere of everyone chatting was quite good.

Yixiang Building is a green building, which is one of the four buildings in Qingzhou Fengyue Boundary.

When it comes to the Qinglou, everyone's first impression is probably the picture in the film and television dramas of later generations: as soon as you enter the Qinglou Chronicle, the building is full of pigeon-cage-like rooms, and the scoop guest enters the yard, and the old bustard howls: "The girls upstairs, come out to meet the guests!" Then a bunch of warblers and swallows poured out, and the noisy people were dizzy.

Liu Xu's impression of Qinglou also stays in Qinglou in film and television dramas. However, after coming, Liu Xu found that Evian Building was completely different from the Qinglou in his impression. After Wang Zongyuan's explanation, Liu Xu realized that his impression and understanding of Qinglou was wrong, and he had a certain understanding of the prosperity of the Great Song Dynasty in later legends.

It turned out that when later generations talked about the name of Qinglou, they all thought that if they were crowned with a note, they must be doing the skin and meat business. But I don't know that in this era, prostitutes and excellent families are inseparable, and they can both be called remembered, but what they do is very different. "A pair of jade arms and thousands of pillows, half a little red lips and ten thousand people" is a prostitute, and you are a prostitute, not a person, and the quality is much higher.

It is difficult to become popular purely by color, and it is difficult to become popular if they are in the skin and meat business, and although the real celebrities are entertaining people with color and do not serve pillow seats, it does not prevent them from gaining a high reputation. Because their fame depends on their own elegant conversation, communication skills, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing and other means to show their talent and wisdom, rather than just relying on the means of collapsing the wind to earn fame.

Prostitutes can't make too much money just by doing the meat business, but these famous Youji are not, most of them rely on their talents and communication skills, and they can often get high remuneration among high-ranking officials and nobles.

Because when dignitaries, wealthy gentry and wealthy businessmen socialize, many things are not discussed at home, or it is inconvenient for people to see them in private, so they have to come to the Qinglou. Drinking tea and listening to music to relax, friends get together to negotiate business, such occasions have become the best place for official occasions, shopping malls, collusion, and communication. And in this process, they may be familiar with each other, or they may be unfamiliar, maybe some things are inconvenient to say directly, or some things are inconvenient to put forward conditions in person, at this time, there must be a long-sleeved person who is good at dancing and dancing from all sides, from which to thread the needle, communicate and coordinate, alleviate contradictions, and promote political alliances and shopping mall cooperation. This person is naturally the famous and sociable Qinglou name.

And the real means of making money for the Qinglou celebrities is to use their interpersonal relationships and anxious conversations to thread the needle for the dignitaries, gentry and wealthy businessmen, and promote their cooperation, and get paid.

And the really famous Qinglou Mingji, most of the people they receive are either rich or noble, these people have a very high status and cultural quality, and there is no shortage of wives and concubines in the family. Not so hungry that you become a hungry ghost. There are countless beautiful wives and concubines in the family, and they want to go to the courtyard to spend money. When they come to the Qinglou, most of them are drinking tea and listening to music to relax, or friends get together to negotiate business, and they leave after drinking, basically nothing to do.

And the second-class girls also mostly walked out of their own homes of scattered and miscellaneous dramas. A feast for the rich and powerful. There will be such a woman who is invited to bring musical instruments. Such a woman also has a skill in silk and bamboo orchestra and beautiful singing and dancing.

As for those who accompany the romance and earn the capital of the head, it will be the next level, their benefactor group is the most extensive, but the income is also limited.

Liu Xu also realized that the names of the Qinglou were all such women, and he couldn't help but have a great change in his impression of them.

And Yixianglou was able to be located in the fourth building of Qingzhou Fengyue Realm, and achieved such a great reputation, and the girls in the building naturally relied on their talents and wisdom in dealing with people, rather than just relying on their faces and skin and meat business.

Originally, Liu Xu, who had spent 20 yuan to invite Miss Ye Shuchen to accompany Wang Zongyuan, now feels that it is a very correct choice to let Miss Ye Shuchen accompany him tonight. With Miss Shu Chen's threading and witty words, Liu Xu quickly became familiar with Master Bai, and talked and laughed.

And Miss Shu Chen is very understanding and can observe words and feelings. After she saw a few people drinking for three rounds and the atmosphere improved, Miss Shu Chen knew that they must have something to talk about, so she said, "The slave family went to take down the pipa, prepare it, and sing a song for everyone!" You talk first, and the slave family will retire first. ”

After Liu Xu saw Miss Shu Chen retreat, Liu Xu took out Yan Liben's scroll and put it in front of Master Bai. "A little bit of a kid, please accept it with a smile."

Bai Zhushu is a traditional literati, and he likes elegant things such as calligraphy and painting. Bai Zhushu opened the scroll, looked at the painting, and was immediately fascinated.

After looking at it for a while, he said: "This building looks at the river, the distant mountains, the near water, the pavilions, and the characters are all round and vivid. Yan Youxiang works on the figures, and the landscape, the pavilion, is also extraordinary, this painting is really Yan Youxiang's masterpiece. "Master Bai is a little in love with it.

After a while, the master of the white book remembered that people gave this heavy gift, and they had something to ask for. Although he is the main book, he is the number one person in other counties, but in Qingzhou City, he is really not a character. Yaxian County, Qingzhou Prefecture, Yatong City, as well as Jingdong East Road to pacify the Yamen, there are big shots. Such a heavy gift, there must be something important to ask for, although this gift is good, it is not so easy to take.

"Bai can't afford such a heavy gift."

"A little courtesy, don't shirk the white master book, this painting is placed here in the kid, it's really a jade dust, the kid is really ignorant of calligraphy and painting, and it is the treasure that is placed here in the white master book." Liu Xu insisted on giving it to Master Bai, and Wang Zongyuan was also on the side.

Bai Wenbin really likes this calligraphy and painting, and Liu Xu's gift was sent to his heart, and it was tickling his heart. He likes calligraphy and painting, but he is also from a poor family, and he has no wealth, and he is the master of Yidu County, in addition to approving some documents and managing some classic books, few people give him gifts and services, so there is not much extra money. Master Bai really liked this painting a little, so he secretly gritted his teeth and said: Take it first, and see what he asks him to do, if it is easy to do, he will accept it, if it is too tricky, he can only endure the pain and return it to others.

Master Bai, who had made up his mind, said: "I don't know what difficult things Erlang encountered, if Bai can help anything, Bai will definitely help." ”

After chatting all night and finally talking about the topic, Liu Xu hurriedly said: "The kid is really ashamed, he can't study, he wants to open a wine shop to make a living, and I want to ask Master Bai to help report and approve the wine shop documents." ”

Bai Wenbin breathed a sigh of relief, this matter was still within his ability, so he said: "This is reported to the wine shop, Bai can still do it, in the county magistrate's kind words, the procedure in the county government is not a problem." However, the paperwork approval of this winery was approved by the state, and this matter is a bit troublesome. But Bai will try to help you do it. However, recently, the predecessor Mei Zhizhou has just left, and the current Kou Zhizhou has just arrived, and the affairs of the state government have not yet been formalized. Bai Wenbin said in his heart, after receiving other people's gifts, try to do it for others, fortunately, the relationship between the county magistrate and himself is not bad, I said a few kind words to the magistrate, let the magistrate go to the state to report for approval, try to take care of it, and probably be able to do it.

Liu Xu was very happy to see that Master Bai accepted the gift and promised to help.

Miss Shu Chen also came in from behind the bamboo curtain at the right time.

The beauty is like jade, holding a pipa in her arms. Passing through the hall wind from the bamboo curtain sent a burst of Rongli flowers, listening to the jingling of wind chimes under the corridor, the artistic conception of interest is really different, Liu Xu is in a good mood.

Miss Shu Chen said crisply: "The slave family will sing a little song for you, please appreciate it, just sing "Cai Wei", if you don't sing well, don't laugh." ”

Picking the weed, picking the weed, and the weeds also stopped. It is said that it will return, and the years will not end.

The house is beautiful, because of the descent. Not to mention the start of the house, because of the sting.

In the sound of the pipa, Miss Shu Chen's gentle and elegant singing voice sounded melodiously

Picking the weed, picking the weed, the weeds are also soft. When he returns, his heart is also worried.

Worried, hungry and thirsty. I am undecided, and I will be hired.

Picking the weed, picking the weed, the wee also just stopped. It is said that the return is said to be returned, and the years are also yang.

The king's affairs are in a hurry, and he will not be left behind. I'm worried, I can't do it!

What is Bilvi? The Glory of Normalcy. What is Belus? A gentleman's car.

Rong car driving, four peony industry. How dare you settle down? Three victories in January.

Drive the other four peons, and the four peons are sloppy. The gentleman is relied on, and the villain is retained.

Four peony wings, like a fish suit. Don't you call it a precept? Horns!

In the past, I went back, and the willows followed. Now I think about it, the rain and snow are falling.

The way is slow, thirsty and hungry. My heart is sad, I don't know how I mourn!

The moon is very full, the song is beautiful, the people are even more beautiful, and everyone can't help but get drunk;
