Chapter 398: Repaying Grievances with Grievances (4)

As soon as Xu Chengsi said it, Jiang Yunfang remembered that it seemed that there was indeed such a thing. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Now Jiang Yun is no longer Wuxia Ameng, and he has been following his uncle for so long, so he can be regarded as a pioneer in the merry array, but he has not yet captured the flag. Chatting with Ji Feng also made him understand a lot of things in this regard.

"This year's Kao Competition, I vaguely remember that Brother Shen seems to have sent a man named Fan... Every... ”

"Van Huer?"

"Yes, yes." Jiang Yun said suddenly: "Isn't it already in the top three?" It's only been less than a year, so why do you have to compare again? ”

"What's so strange about that?" Xu Chengsi said with a smile: "No one is good for a thousand days, no flower is red for a hundred days, even if it is Kao, its blooming days will not last long, so the Kao Contest is held every year." It's the spring of next year, and it's not even a few months away. ”

"Oh." Jiang Yun bowed his head and said: "Then what else is there to see, I'm afraid it will be Fan Xiu'er next year, right?" This year, they are all ranked in the top three, and it is very possible to fight hard next year to fight for a top Kao. ”

"Jiang Yun, do you really not understand or are you making fun of me?" Xu Chengsi looked at him and said with a strange expression: "The Kao Contest has been held for several years, and I have never heard of anyone participating in the second one. ”

"Why?" Jiang Yun was puzzled, hasn't he made persistent efforts since ancient times?

"Aesthetic fatigue!" Xu Chengsi rolled his eyes and said: "Even if you are a fairy-like person, you will gradually get tired after watching it for a long time, and you think it's nothing more than that." If you can rank among the top three in a Kao contest, as a Qing Qi person, you will already be mixed up. In the future, it is destined to only go downhill, and if you don't retire at this time, when will you wait? Mo said that Fan Xiu'er is only third, even if Long Xiaoxiao, the king of Shudi who ranks first this year, dares to show his face next year, he will not even be able to enter the top three. It is the nature of men to like the new and hate the old, even if there are a few who are not tired of the old, they definitely can't help but like the new. ”

"That's just as well." Bad habits! Although Jiang Yun despised this, he also had to admit that this is indeed a man's nature, both ancient and modern, both Chinese and foreign.

"Therefore, Kao kings like Lin Fan'er who have won the ranking will hold a grand auction on the night of winning the championship, that is, when they are the most valuable, and the highest bidder can redeem them and hold the beauty. Lin Fan'er was bought by a huge rich man in Shu, and the auction of Long Xiaoxiao, who was the first, was won by a mysterious businessman from the Western Regions. The transaction price was as high as 120,000 taels, which was 20,000 taels higher than the selling price of the Yu Qing girl under Shen Mo's previous subordinates. Coupled with the previous auction and wine, Shudi Shui Yunxuan got nearly 150,000 taels before and after. ”

"What does it mean to shoot art and wine?"

"Hey." Xu Chengsi smiled mysteriously and whispered: "After the Kao Contest begins, each participating Oiran will get a chance to show his face alone, which is like a draft girl, which is a preliminary audition, which is voted on by the representatives of the major families and the guest officials present. Some of the conditions that are relatively worse than others will be eliminated on the same day. The rest are qualified to compete for the top three Kao, and the value is naturally raised to a ladder, and on the first day, these Oiran will hold an auction. ”

"Fuqin?" Jiang Yun instinctively thought of Yan Wu, she had a history of making music.

"Not necessarily, depending on the expertise of each Oiran." Xu Chengsi said with a smile: "The Qing people play an elegant character, and most of the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are involved, but there will be one that is particularly good at, and this is the one that is filmed!" In terms of price, the conditions are naturally the biggest factor, but not necessarily, it is also affected by the hobbies of the on-site bidders. For example, there are many wealthy merchants who like calligraphy, and even if the conditions are slightly worse, it is possible to sell for a higher price for an oiran whose conditions are better than their own, but who are not good at calligraphy. ”

"Oh." Jiang Yun nodded and said, "What about the wine?" ”

"Qingqi people are also Qinglou girls, and they can't be elegant when they go to Qinglou. Flower hop flower wine, how can it be made without flowers? After the first day of shooting, most of the quality conditions of each oiran will be spread, and everyone will naturally have a rough idea in their hearts. On the second day, it was screened, and it was still a voting decision to determine the top ten. These ten oirans are the popular candidates for the top three Kao, and they held a wine auction that night. The highest bidder will get a chance to chat with your favorite Oiran and learn more. ”

"That's it?" Jiang Yun hung a look of disdain. "So what's the difference between this and the first day?"

"It's a big difference." Xu Chengsi said with a smile: "After the first day of the audition, the value of the oiran is not reflected, so the auction price is generally not too high, and naturally it cannot reflect the financial resources of the bidders." On the second day, the Oirans who passed the screening were all popular, and those who could bid to participate in the auction were all wealthy merchants with extremely high prices, in other words, they must have the ability to redeem them. People say that it is better to be familiar than to be familiar, and most of the Oiran will be much more enthusiastic about the guest officers who shoot wine, if it is pleasing to the eye, and the conversation is good, although it is not possible to break the melon and pull the flag on the night, it is still okay to take some advantage. As for how much can be occupied, it depends on the means of each person. ”

"What about the third day?"

"On the third day, it is natural to vote for the top three Kao, and the ranking will be determined according to the number of votes, followed by the redemption auction. At this time, that scene is really crazy, and the huge rich everywhere will never stop without fighting for an empty money bag. ”

"How do you know so well?" Jiang Yun came back to his senses, looked at Xu Chengsi with a strange expression, and said, "Do you plan to go home to shoot one?" ”

"Hey." Xu Chengsi was not cunning, and the thief smiled: "Manly man, who doesn't envy your days of hugging left and right?" Well, I do have this idea, but I have to discuss it with Jin'er, and she agrees. Horizontally and vertically marrying back, she is a concubine, taking care of daily life on weekdays, warming the bed and folding quilts. With Xiao Luo's example, if I grind it again, Jin'er may accept it? ”

What a naΓ―ve child... Jiang Yun didn't know what to say about him. It's been a few days since he got married, why does Xu Chenghei lack understanding of his daughter-in-law so much? Who is Ji Jin? It's just a money fan in the eyes of losing money! You Xu Chenghei begged for a concubine, if you can earn some money for her to go home, Ji Jin may have the possibility of agreeing. If you want to spend 100,000 taels of silver to buy a concubine back, it's no wonder she doesn't work hard with you.

Looking at this teaser who was completely immersed in a beautiful reverie for the future, Jiang Yun really couldn't bear to hit him, and grinned. "Maybe."

"So, I just want to go and see the Oiran of the Queyunju, and if it is pleasing to the eye, I will shoot it when the Kao contest is over. She is Brother Shen's person, what is our relationship? Maybe you can even give me a discount. ”

"Huh! I don't see you for a few months, your young master Xu has made great progress, and you have learned to be diligent and thrifty? Jiang Yun shook his head helplessly and said, "I know, I'll mention this matter to Shen Mo later." Hengzhu's eldest brother has been in a bad mood recently, so he asked him to go for a drink of flower wine, maybe it could improve his mood. ”

"Yes, yes, that's what I mean." When Xu Chengsi heard this, he suddenly nodded his head like a chicken pecking rice. "Then it's settled. I'll go first, and I'll get back in touch. ”

"Cheng, you go, I should go home too."

After saying goodbye to Xu Chenghe, Jiang Yun walked straight home. I couldn't help but think of a question in my mind, if Yan Wu hadn't died, would she really go to the Kao Competition? With her conditions, not to mention the first class Kao, at least the top three should be no problem. At that time, how does Fang Yaqing plan to end the redemption auction? Really sold Yan Wu?

Thinking about it, Jiang Yun suddenly found that he seemed to be thinking too much. Who is Fang Yaqing? The master of the Guanzhong Business Alliance, the huge rich among the rich, even if Yan Wu wins the championship, she is fully capable of buying her by herself. It's nothing more than a waste of some fees, and Yan Wu is back in her hands. For Fang Yaqing, this bit of broken silver can't even talk about sprinkling water, and she may even deliberately raise the value of Yan Wu, so that the value of Xiaoxiang Pavilion will also rise.

That girl is very good, Jiang Yun is sure she can do it.

Oiran contest? Hehe, hearing Xu Chengsi say this, he couldn't help but be interested in it, and he really should take a look if he has the opportunity.

Slow down ... Oiran... Qinglou? Jiang Yun seemed to think of something, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help flashing a smile, and a pair of eyes narrowed after a while.
