Lin Yi walked outside Yang Huijuan's door and was about to knock on the door, only to hear a sound of crying coming from inside. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Lin Yi said strangely: "Who is bullying my female benefactor!" actually made her angry like this, and when I asked the reason, I was angry for the beauty. Thinking of this, he reached out and knocked on the door of the room, and shouted, "Is Sister Yang here?" Am I the tenth brother of Wang? ”

The crying inside stopped, and after a while, the door squeaked and was pulled open from the inside, and Yang Huijuan looked at him from the door with red and swollen eyes.

Lin Yi asked with concern: "Sister Yang, who bullied you, beware of crying and breaking your body, let my younger brother beat him out for you!" ”

"Is she crying because of the old body? Are you looking for an old body to vent your anger? At the other end of the corridor, there was Wang Jiu's mother's angry and hateful voice.

Lin Yi turned his head to look, and saw Wang Jiu's mother, surrounded by Qiu Ju and other six or seven women, walked over, hurriedly stood with her hands down, bowed down and said, "Mother Wang!" Wang Shi didn't dare! ”

Wang Jiu Ma said disdainfully: "I don't dare to forgive you!" He walked slowly into Yang Huijuan's room and sat down on the embroidery beside a round table.

Yang Huijuan stepped forward and cried: "Mom! Daughter, I said that I won't participate in the Oiran Contest in Yangzhou City! ”

Wang Jiu's mother lowered her face and said, "You still can't bear your Wang Lang!" Now you are the daughter of a criminal official, and you are an old man who spent three hundred taels of silver to buy from the government to be an Oiran lady, how can you do it if you don't participate? Don't be afraid to hold a grinding plate without knowing the weight, holding a goose feather without knowing how light, to tell you, you have to participate in this Oiran Contest if you don't participate! The tone was extremely harsh.

Yang Huijuan cried: "My daughter doesn't want to die!" ”

Wang Jiu Ma raised her eyebrows, her face was already full of anger, and she said sharply: "If Li Si Ma put it down today, you also heard it, she wants to compete with our Yihong Courtyard, if it is the losing side, let the other party choose three Oiran ladies to pick up guests in the other party's building." You said that if you don't participate, this famous Oiran, in case you call Li Lingyu of Qunfanglou to go, Li Sima will definitely ask you to go to their Qunfanglou, and then will immediately find guests to comb the cage for you, I heard that the Li Dayuan in Yangzhou City is black and ugly, has coveted you for a long time, and the big price can also be afforded, I am afraid that it will be him who combs the cage for you, and in the future, you will be the first Oiran of Qunfanglou who sells both art and body, when the time comes, I am afraid that even the concubine, even your brother Wang Lang will dislike you, and you are not allowed to do it, you have to think clearly? ”

Sure enough, Yang Huijuan was frightened by her and didn't dare to fight back, just crying and crying, and washed her face with tears.

Wang Jiu Ma sighed and said, "That's it! It's not easy for your mother to raise you so big, it's almost the same as your own daughter, your mother promised you enough to earn a thousand taels of silver, and asked your mother to return to your roots, and then redeemed yourself as a free body, how about it? ”

A thousand taels of silver? Damn, Wang Jiu Ma, you are really dark, when you bought Sister Yang, you only spent three hundred taels of silver, and over the years, you have eaten you, drunk yours, and used you, and you can't spend more than five hundred taels of silver, but you want Sister Yang to take a thousand taels of silver to redeem herself? I'm afraid that she will not be able to make up enough money even if she is in this Yihong Courtyard and sold herself for ten years! Wouldn't it be a pity if such a flower was arched by a pig outside of Mr. Li, and if you want to arch, you have to arch this young and handsome little handsome guy, right? Lin Yi thought shamelessly.

Yang Huijuan reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Mom! Daughter participates in the Oiran contest! ”

Wang Jiu's mother turned her anger into joy, and said with a smile: "That's right!" Is this my daughter? Hurry up and wash your face, see that your eyes are red and swollen from crying, how can you participate in the competition? He turned his head and ordered: "Qiu Ju, from today onwards, you will wait by the side of Miss day and night, serve her well, and make her happily participate in the Oiran Contest, you know?" ”

Qiu Ju hurriedly agreed, and bowed beside him. Wang Jiu Ma said again: "The old body is going back to the room now, and tomorrow I will invite the famous talents in Yangzhou City to make two good poems for you, let's say that we can't lose to Li Sima's stinky ****?" As he spoke, he led the women away with a smile on his face.

This Oiran contest will be held in ten days, and I have to do something, otherwise how can I pick this beautiful flower of Yang Huijuan? Lin Yi pondered.

Seeing that Yang Huijuan had already thought about it, Lin Yi said goodbye to her and walked outside slowly. Now although Yang Huijuan has agreed to participate in the Oiran Competition, I am afraid that I will not be in a good mood, if I ask her about the Oiran Competition, I am afraid that she will be bored, and she will be scolded in vain. You may also find a chance to make a fortune. Lin Yi made up his mind, meditated all the way to the street, and wandered around Yangzhou City.

This method of making a fortune with quick success and quick profit, generally speaking, is nothing more than the three words "stealing, robbing, and gambling", and he is a law-abiding citizen, even if he travels to the Great Zhou Dynasty, he can't do anything like this. But how do you earn the first pot of gold in your life? Lin Yi wandered around Yangzhou City, hesitating, hating that although he had learned a lot of scientific and cultural knowledge, he had really not learned this method of making a fortune in books. Ay! How good is that? There are still ten days to hold the Oiran Competition, and Lin Yi showed a trace of sadness on his face.

After walking around the street for a while, I suddenly saw two people carrying burdens, one tall and one short, walking beside him, and the tall one said, "Hey! Have you heard? Ten days later, the annual Oiran Contest in Yangzhou City is going to be contested, you say that this time Yangzhou City's top ten green buildings, which girl will win the first Oiran! ”

Which of the short ones beside him replied: "I think it's Li Lingyu from Qunfanglou, which chick is white and tender, if she wants to be more watery, she will have more water, and her dancing skills are very good, it will definitely be her?" ”

"Definitely! Definitely! The tall man shook his head and said: "I think Yang Huijuan from Yihong Courtyard has a better chance of winning, which chick not only dances well, but also sings well, this time she will definitely be elected." ”

"Huh! You don't know! The short man said triumphantly: "I heard that the proprietress of Qunfanglou invited the extremely famous Lord Liu Wubian Liu to come to Yangzhou Mansion and personally composed three excellent lyrics for Li Lingyu. ”

"Oh! Is it true? The tall man said anxiously: "That's troublesome, I have already bought Yang Huijuan of Yihong Courtyard in the casino and won, it seems that this time it is not safe, Li Lingyu of Qunfanglou has a better chance of winning, I have to change it quickly!" So saying, he took the burden off his shoulders and hurried into a gambling house by the roadside.

Isn't it in this casino that has already started to place bets? We'll have to take a look and see what the situation is, and maybe some news. Lin Yi hurriedly stepped into it. When I entered the gambling house, I saw that there were seven or eight tables set up inside, and there were fifty or sixty people in them, who were gathered around the table, rolling dice, playing pai gow, and thirty or forty people, gathered in front of a counter, shouting something together, and the tall man was mixed in it.

Lin Yi hurriedly walked over, took a closer look, and saw that there was a big white lacquered wooden board behind the counter, on which were hung more than ten wooden signs with the names of each green building, and under the wooden signs were hung small wooden signs with people's names written on them, and numbers were written under the small wooden signs. Obviously, those numbers are the number of bets placed by gamblers.

Lin Yi looked at it and found that among these gamblers, Li Lingyu won most of the people who bought Qunfanglou, and the number of people who bought Yang Huijuan to win was already far behind Li Lingyu.

"What a pity! If I had money, I would definitely buy it for my sister Yang to win, as far as her voice was as good as fairy music in the sky, and how could she lose to that Li Lingyu? But if you lose, don't you ask which big black pig outside of Li Dayuan to arch? Lin Yi really stomped his feet with regret, and the look on his face was so annoyed.

I was in a hurry, and suddenly my eyes rolled and I had an idea. That's right! You can also sell lottery tickets yourself! Anyway, it doesn't cost a lot of money to print lottery tickets, and when the time comes, part of the money earned will be handed over to the imperial court, and part of the winner will be sent away, and the rest will not be earned by yourself? In this Oiran competition, if Sister Yang wins, everyone will naturally be happy, and if she loses, she can also take the money she earns to Qunfang Building to redeem Sister Yang? Isn't that a way to make money? But this matter, it can't be done without a big power person, Wang Jiu's mother is not bad to herself, there is this ready-made opportunity to make a fortune, let's discuss it with her. Thinking of this, Lin Yi rushed back and went to discuss with Wang Jiu's mother.

Wang Jiu's mother was lazily resting on the back of the chair, with a pair of feet in a steaming small wooden basin, and a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl gently massaged and scrubbed her. Seeing him come in, Wang Jiu's mother asked lazily, "Wang Shi, what's the matter with you, a little monk?" ”

Lin Yi walked up to her, leaned over, and said mysteriously, "Mother Wang! You're good to me, I have a ready-made opportunity to make a fortune, I want to talk to you, would you like to listen? ”

Wang Jiu's mother snorted and said, "Little monk, what good ideas can you have to make a fortune?" ”

Lin Yi snorted and said: "This idea is excellent, it doesn't cost much money, and it makes a lot of money, and it is a sure profit, it's just ...... I want to take out one-tenth of the profit and give it to myself, I wonder if you are interested, Mother Wang? ”

Wang Jiu Ma leaned her head back on the back of the chair, closed her eyes, and said slowly: "Then you can say it!" I'd like to hear what you can think of. ”

Lin Yi said softly: "Mother Wang, this Oiran Contest has attracted the attention of the people of Yangzhou City, everyone is talking about it, speculating on the results of this competition, and many people who love gambling have also gone to the casino to place bets. ”

Wang Jiu Ma hummed softly in her mouth and said, "I know about this, and the annual Oiran Contest is like this. ”

Lin Yi lowered his voice, put his mouth to her ear and said, "So there is a huge business opportunity here!" We can cooperate with the government to openly sell lottery tickets, each ticket is worth 100 yuan, and call the people of Yangzhou City to buy, if you win, you can get a huge winnings, so that the people who win will become rich overnight......"

Wang Jiu Ma slowly sat up straight, her face showed a solemn look, and said to Yahuan, who was squatting to wash her feet: "Dongmei! Go outside first, keep the door open, and let no one come in. ”

Dongmei hurriedly agreed, retreated, and when she was about to go out, she glanced at the two of them with her eyes and gently closed the door.

Wang Jiu's mother took a piece of linen cloth to wipe her feet, kicked off her shoes, and said, "Come!" Little monk, come to my room and talk slowly to my mother. ”

Lin Yi said with a smile: "It's Mother Wang!" He followed her and walked into the house.
