Yang Chao asked, "What, do you know him?" ”

Hu Quan said: "How can I know this fool." He had been in front of Mei Xiang Lou for several days. Every day, he came as soon as the drum sounded to open the door, stood there for a day, and went back when the drum sounded behind the door. Everyone said this man was stupid. ”

"Is he here to find Li Xiangjun?"

Yang Chao wondered.

At the mention of Li Xiangjun, Hu Quan swallowed a mouthful of saliva freely, he saw it once from afar by the river last year through the curtain of the painting boat, and he bragged about it for half a year.

"Not really. He came to find Liu Ruye. It seems that he is chasing after him. Just ask to see each other. ”

"Liu is like this?"

"You don't know. Liu Ru is a famous prostitute in Songjiang, and Li Xiangjun is a good friend, and she cherishes each other, and often comes to Meixianglou to visit Li Xiangjun. ”

Hu Quan teased that Liu Ru was a famous prostitute in Songjiang, and his fame in Nanjing naturally could not be compared with Li Xiangjun, who was famous in Jinling, and ordinary people may not know that he was far less famous than in later generations.

However, the current Yang Chao is no longer the Yang Chao of the past, how could Liu Ru not know Yang Chao, one of the famous Qin Huai Bayan, and even considered to be the head of Bayan, not worse than Li Xiangjun, a famous prostitute in Meixianglou.

However, Qin Huai Bayan was evaluated by later generations, and there is no such name now.

Yang Chao nodded: "I see." ”

These famous prostitutes and beauties of Qinhuai River, although they are from humble backgrounds, there is absolutely no shortage of prodigal children who chase them, Yang Chao was also such a prodigal in the past, and he is also a poor prodigal who can only fantasize and has no conditions to chase at all.

Looking at the scholar, white-faced and weak-crowned, full of infatuation, thinking that the scholar had been standing here for many days, Yang Chao couldn't help but think in his heart, if in the future life, there is such a desperate boy chasing, probably no girl can refuse people ruthlessly, but Liu Ru is such a famous prostitute is a veteran of Fengyue, and he doesn't eat this set at all.

If it were him, he would definitely not use such a stupid way to chase Liu Ruyi.

If it were him, Yang Chao would have at least ten ways to impress a woman.

Yang Chao didn't brag.

Although Yang Chao was only the son of a middle-class family in his previous life, his father was an engineer in a machinery factory, and his mother was a middle school teacher, but because Yang Chao was an only son and was affected by the general social atmosphere, his parents had a kind of educational panic when Yang Chao was young, for fear that Yang Chao would lose at the starting line.

So since he was three years old, Yang Chao not only went to kindergarten, but also was sent to various interest classes by his parents. I have learned to play football and basketball. This situation continued until the second year of junior high school, when I was faced with the need to enter a key high school, and I stopped.

Therefore, although Yang Chao does not dare to say that he is proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, he is also interested in a wide range of interests, and he still has a few hands that can come up with the ability to pretend to be forced. When I was studying in France, when I was helping people paint portraits by the Seine River to earn extra money, I hooked up with foreign girls, and at least three foreign girls were later fooled by Yang Chao to paint body paintings, and then in Brabra or something.

Yang Chao thought in his heart, and continued to walk forward.

As soon as the imagination opened, he couldn't stop the brake, the obsessive boy brother began to paint in Yang Chao's heart, this boy brother was obsessed with Liu Rushi, and then followed all the way, but Liu Ru didn't see him, he waited outside the door every day, this is lovesickness.

This is a kind of Chengmen Lixue's will, a kind of persistence that will not look back if you don't see a beautiful woman.

I saw this boy, handsome, fair-skinned, a typical scholar.

is like the male protagonist in a Korean drama, and is extremely suitable for acting in bitter love dramas.

Is Liu Ru really not moved?

Yang Chao felt that it was impossible, a woman would be moved, but he was not moved to the point of making a personal promise.

Refusing to meet at this time is a kind of protection, and I don't want this son to be sad in the future.

What a typical Korean drama model, Yang Chao thought to himself, he was going to be moved.

Hu Quan kept glancing at Meixiang upstairs, hoping to be lucky to see one or two girls through the cracks in the window.

It's a pity that the doors and windows of Meixianglou are closed at this time.

"Alas. I heard that this kid's family is very rich. However, after Liu Ru came, Meixianglou closed its doors. Otherwise, he wouldn't be standing here every day. ”

Hu Quan regretted that if he was rich, he would definitely go to the building every day to swear an alliance with the beauty.

At this time, Yang Chao was about to walk past the scholar and suddenly stopped.

Hu Quan was a little strange and said, "What's wrong with Brother Yang?" ”

Yang Chao asked quietly, "You mean that scholar is very rich?" ”

Hu Quan nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that he is a rich businessman from Hangzhou." ”

Yang Chao didn't have the heart to scruple about this boy, although he admired this boy's persistence, but he didn't have the heart to help him, but he had money, and Yang Chao was short of money, he wouldn't chase girls, Yang Chao would chase girls, which couldn't help but make Yang Chao's mind lively.

Yang Chao took a deep breath and suddenly made up his mind: "It's done!" ”

Hu Quan was stunned: "What did you do?" ”

Yang Chao didn't have time to answer, so he walked quickly to the shadows in front of Meixiang Building, a few steps away were scholars and scholars, and behind him was the high wall of Meixiang Building. Then he immediately beckoned to the scholar's scholar, who was stunned for a moment and walked towards Yang Chao.

Hu Quan looked at Yang Chao strangely, he didn't know what Yang Chao wanted to do, and hurriedly chased after him.

The scholar saw Yang Chao waving his hand and looked at it suspiciously.

"Tell me about you, come here!"

Yang Chao hooked his hand again and said to the scholar.

The scholar came over suspiciously: "What are you doing?" ”

Yang Chao said: "Do you want your son-in-law to see Liu Rus?" ”

The scholar did not hesitate: "Of course I do." ”

His own son-in-law has been staying in Nanjing, and the scholar can only follow, standing in front of the Qinglou every day, being looked at by others like a fool, even a scholar can't stand it.

Yang Chao said: "Let your son-in-law give me twenty taels, no, ten taels of silver, and I will help him see Liu Rusi." ”

Hu Quan had already followed at this time, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, thinking that Yang Chao was crazy.

Although scholars like Yang Chao and Hu Quan usually boast of being romantic sons, they can only go to private schools, and their families are often not wealthy, so they can only talk about Liu Ru is such a famous prostitute, they don't want to see it, it's impossible to think about it. Now Yang Chao said that he would take the scholar to see Liu Rusi, this is not crazy, what is this!

At this time, the three of them are standing in the shadow of Meixianglou, Meixianglou "blue brick small tile horse-head wall, cloister hanging lattice fan window", there is no place in this building that is not exquisite, the hollow carving on the green window Zhuhu window, there is no one the same.

This is just to see from the outside, as for what is inside this building, outsiders can't see it, they can only imagine it.

Liu Rulai came to visit Li Xiangjun, and Li Xiangjun simply closed the door to thank the guests. Such women no longer need to pick up customers for a living, with their fame and status, as long as they want, there are rich businessmen waving tickets at any time and taking the initiative to send them.

Ordinary people may still think that a famous prostitute like Li Xiangjun is just a maid, a poor woman at the bottom of society. Yang Chao is very clear about the status of famous prostitutes like Qin Huai Bayan, they are by no means maids in the general sense, in fact, the status class seems to be a courtesan in later generations, and it is the first-line category, even on par with top female stars.

Although the name is a maid, not to mention ordinary people, even some officials with low status, they are not in the eyes of these famous prostitutes. Many officials even need to beg these famous prostitutes to make a name for themselves.

If you choose to be good, these top famous prostitutes will not worry about marrying. Qin Huai Bayan, Liu Ru finally married Qian Qianyi, Qian Qianyi is a famous writer in the world, the article temperament is majestic, swept away the sound of the voice, is the literary master, the leader of the poetry league, and most importantly, has great political influence, is one of the leaders of the Donglin Party.

Li Xiangjun finally married Hou Fangyu, Hou Fangyu is also a great talent, in the late Ming Dynasty in the powerful political group Fushe, known as the four sons, the Hou family is also an official eunuch, Hou Fangyu's father was an official in Beijing.

Dong Xiaowan is married to Mao Bijiang, and he is also one of the four great talents, an official eunuch, and a wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River.

Not to mention Chen Yuanyuan, he has an inexplicable relationship with Emperor Chongzhen, Wu Sangui, Li Zicheng and other people, and the story has been praised for hundreds of years.

Liu Ruyi, Li Xiangjun, Dong Xiaowan and Chen Yuanyuan are all among the more famous people in the later generations of Qin Huai Bayan, which one is not a person who is famous for a while, and everyone who gets married is also a first-class character. Like the big stars of later generations, you must marry into a wealthy family.

Therefore, it is completely impossible for the son of a wealthy businessman to pursue a character like Liu Ruyi.

Even if it was just one meeting, Liu Ru didn't agree, and no one could do anything.

Even the scholars in the city, and even the children of the official eunuchs, may not be able to see it, but Yang Chao boasted that he would help others see it.

Not to mention that Hu Quan didn't believe it, even the scholar didn't believe that Yang Chao could help with this.

Yang Chao was wearing a Confucian robe, but it was just a cloth robe, and he definitely didn't look like a powerful person, why did Yang Chao be.

"Just you?"

So after the scholar glanced at Yang Chao, his eyes did not hide his suspicion at all.

Yang Chao was very confident: "That's right. Ten taels of silver, I helped him see Liu Rus. Not a penny less, don't even think about it. ”

Hu Quan suddenly realized at this time, and quietly smiled: "Brother Yang, you want to kill the wronged head." But you really dare to ask for ten taels! ”

Hu Quan took it for granted that Yang Chao wanted to deceive people, wanted to cheat the money of this wealthy businessman from other places, and deceived outsiders, although Hu Quan and Yang Chao had never done it, but they grew up on the street since they were children, and they often heard about such things, and they didn't think it was strange.

I just feel that Yang Chao's opening is a little too big, and ten taels of silver is a huge amount of money. In the Ming Dynasty, ten taels of silver was not for fun, and the top girl in the Nanshi Building, the largest green building in Nanjing, was only at this price for a night's sleep.

But where are ordinary people willing to spend ten taels of silver to sleep with a woman, ten taels of silver is enough for a strong man to eat for ten years. Hu Quan's pork, the best pork belly, one pound is only two cents of silver, one tael of silver can buy fifty catties, and ten taels of silver is enough to buy two pigs. Yang Chao asked for ten taels of silver when he opened his mouth, and Hu Quan thought that no one would agree.

However, the scholar stared at Yang Chao for a moment, and still hesitated to walk towards his son-in-law.

Although he doesn't believe Yang Chao's words, he really doesn't have any good ways, and it's not a matter of spending so much with his own son, plus Yang Chao's local accent, maybe this local snake has some way.

So the scholar still reported to his son-in-law.

As a result, he soon walked back: "My son-in-law said, as long as he sees Miss Liu, he will give you fifty taels!" ”
