Chapter 32: Spending a lot of money for beauty
Meng Yuan returned to the tailor's shop and couldn't help but laugh when he looked at the red panda's new clothes. I saw that the red panda was wearing a hat, a blue silk coat on his upper body, and a pair of oversized black boots on his feet by the proprietress. The most interesting thing is the red cape, draped on the back and thrown back from time to time by it with bear paws, this is a live and enhanced version of Superman.
The proprietress saw that Meng Yuan was back, her face was full of questions, and she couldn't speak for a long time. Meng Yuan looked at the proprietress and said, "What's wrong, don't the clothes fit?"
"It's... Isn't this the young man's?" said the proprietress .
"Don't look at him pretending to be a dog, he is actually a thief, he stole my things, and I just get some interest back now. Meng Yuan said.
The proprietress was a smart person, and knew that there were some things that she could not ask herself, and said, "Look at the clothes I have made for it, and if you are not satisfied, I will change it." ”
"Everything else was good, except for the lack of a pair of panties. ”
The proprietress asked puzzledly, "What are the panties?"
Meng Yuan was surprised: "Don't you know the underwear? It's what you wear inside the pants." ”
The proprietress said with some embarrassment: "The young master may not know, we don't wear anything inside." ”
Meng Yuan suddenly remembered Shen Qingluan, and thought that it was because the woman was too sassy, so she didn't wear it.
"Then aren't you afraid of going away?"
"What's gone?"
"It's just that the skirt was suddenly blown up by the wind, isn't that what?" said himself, a little embarrassed.
"Oh, I see what you mean. How can we poor people care about this, and besides, it won't blow up so easily. Only the young masters and daughters of those big families will wear calves made of silk. The hostess explained.
Meng Yuan coughed and said, "That... You make one for it and wear it outside. Seeing that the proprietress looked at herself stupidly, she said, "You don't care about the rest, anyway, it's not bad for your money." ”
The time soon came to night, Meng Yuan took the red panda and walked a few steps and laughed. The red panda was also very happy, following behind Meng Yuan, fiddling with his cloak.
Di Yu asked Meng Yuan where he was going next, and Meng Yuan asked him where Feng Junyuan liked to go the most? Di Yu didn't know, and Meng Yuan didn't embarrass him, so he asked and answered: "Of course it's Qinglou." ”
Along the way, Meng Yuan enjoyed the night view of the street, humming a little song, and was in a good mood. As for whether he knows the location of Qinglou, jokes, the man's sixth sense is a joke, and he can find it with his eyes closed.
Meng Yuan came to a three-storey building on West Street, with lanterns hanging on it, illuminating the street. At the entrance of the tall building, two brightly dressed women, holding handkerchiefs in their hands, rushed to passers-by and threw flattering glances. A plaque is hung on the gatehouse, which reads the three big characters of Xunlanju.
Meng Yuan walked to the door and coughed, and the two gorgeous women glanced at him and ignored him for some reason.
Meng Yuan asked the red panda, "Am I not like a rich man?"
The red panda looked at Meng Yuan with big eyes and nodded. Meng Yuan glared at the red panda and swaggered towards Xunlanju. Just about to enter the door, he was stopped by a burly man, who said, "This is not the place for you to come, please come back!"
Meng Yuan looked at the big man and said, "Brother, is this the Qinglou?"
Dahan looked impatient, glanced at Meng Yuan and said, "No. ”
Meng Yuan awkwardly touched his freshly cut hairstyle, pretended to look around at the scenery, and left Xunlanju. He said to himself, "My sixth sense would be wrong." He didn't take two steps but saw an "acquaintance", and he knew that the big man must have lied to him, and he greeted the big man's sisters and sisters cordially. This old acquaintance is none other than Feng Junyuan.
Meng Yuan saw that Feng Junyuan was about to go in, and walked over to greet him. Feng Junyuan looked at him, angry, he was about to teach a lesson now, but he was stopped by the old man who followed him.
Feng Junyuan threatened: "Count your kid's life, you dare to snatch my clothes so daringly, you can." After speaking, he ignored Meng Yuan and walked straight to Xunlanju.
Meng Yuan followed closely behind, glaring at Dahan as he passed by. Dahan also touched his bald head, not understanding what was happening.
Meng Yuan walked into Xunlanju, his heart was like a cat's paws, imagining what a fragrant scene was inside. When he went in, he found that it was not what he imagined, a young lady wearing only a belly pocket, twisting her sexy body, dancing and singing.
The scene in front of me is a group of gorgeously dressed old men, drinking tea and chatting, and there is not a young lady wearing a belly pocket. At that moment, he really knew that he was in the wrong place, but when he saw a man in his thirties carrying a beautiful woman into the room, he knew that he was not wrong, but the situation in front of him was a little complicated.
Meng Yuan saw that there were too many people on the first floor, so he went directly to the third floor, walked to a private room, lifted the curtain and walked in. He said to a middle-aged man dressed in black, "Uncle, move to the side." ”
The middle-aged man looked at Meng Yuan in disbelief, he would never believe that someone would let him move his position in Lancheng. The fat man dressed as another businessman opposite the middle-aged man laughed and said, "Brother Chen, give me face, you can give it up." He turned to Meng Yuan and said, "Is it the first time for the little brother to come to Lancheng?"
Meng Yuan poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Uncle has a good eye, and he is a big man at first glance." May I ask what these people are doing here?"
The merchant also took a sip of tea and said, "Don't worry, little brother, the show will start immediately." ”
With the work of a cup of tea, accompanied by the sound of an elegant piano, everyone stopped chatting and looked at a high platform. There was a woman in her thirties and forties standing on the high platform, dressed in flowers, with a fan in her hand, and said with a smile: "All the masters have been waiting for a long time, Miss Ouyang is dressing up, and she will come soon, let's start first." The reserve price is 100 springs of gold, and each increase is not less than 10 springs of gold. ”
Meng Yuan thought to himself that this should be the old bustard of Xunlanju, but what does this spring gold mean, isn't it gold and silver?
The middle-aged man surnamed Chen was taking a sip of tea when he suddenly choked and said, "How did you get in?"
"Swaggered in. ”
The middle-aged man surnamed Chen looked a little speechless and said to the businessman: "Brother Mingcheng, you can solve it yourself." ”
Shang Mingcheng explained: "This hundred springs of gold refers to one hundred taels of gold. ”
Meng Yuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva and sobbed his mouth and said, "One hundred taels of gold is still the reserve price, do you want to sell any heavenly treasures?"
Shang Mingcheng said: "It's not a natural treasure, it's a woman." ”
Chen Yongsi said "um", became interested, looked at Meng Yuan and asked, "Does the little brother still know the treasures of heaven and earth?"
Meng Yuan didn't bother to look at Chen Yongsi, thinking about what kind of beauty could be worth a hundred taels of gold. As soon as the old bustard finished speaking, a young man downstairs took the lead in signaling, and the old bustard shouted: "Wang Gongzi has two hundred springs of gold." ”
A young man dressed as a Taoist priest next to Wang Gongzi said, "Three hundred." ”
In a few breaths, the price soared from a hundred to a thousand. The old bustard was very happy and shouted, "One thousand springs of gold once, one thousand springs of gold twice." Just as he was about to shout for the third time, he heard a private room on the third floor shouting: "Two thousand." ”
Opposite the private room, a young man with a Chinese character face was drinking a little wine, and a scholar next to him said, "Brother Haoran doesn't make a bid?"
Rong Haoran said: "Don't worry, I'm here to see a good show." As he spoke, he looked at a private room on his right, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Meng Yuan looked distressed, calculating how much two thousand taels of gold would be exchanged for soft sister coins. Chen Yongsi asked, "Don't you bid?"
Meng Yuan looked at Chen Yongsi with an idiot look and said, "Fart, I bid without even seeing anyone, do you think I'm the wronged boss?"
Shang Mingcheng looked at Chen Yongsi, who was deflated, and laughed and coughed. Chen Yongsi was not angry and said to Meng Yuan: "The little brother is really a shrewd person." But let me tell you, don't talk about the entire Lancheng, even the entire Fulan County Ouyang Yanran is also the object of the Wangsun Fugui competition, do you say it is worth those vulgar things?"
Meng Yuan sighed and said, "I said uncle, you are so old, if you don't rest at home, you know that you will come out to wander around, and you are not afraid that your aunt will find you to go back and kneel on the washboard?"
"Bastard!" Chen Yongsi slapped it on the table, and the bidding immediately stopped. Everyone turned their eyes to the private room where Meng Yuan was, not knowing what was happening.
Shang Mingcheng smiled: "Why should Brother Chen be angry? I think what Little Brother said is very reasonable. After speaking, he turned to look at Meng Yuan and said, "The little brother is right, but he guessed a little wrong. We're here just to see what makes this famous Oiran of Fulan County so special. As for the post-dance event, we will not be involved. If the little brother is in too much hurry to go out and doesn't bring enough silver taels, I can lend it to you first, and I will add one percent to it afterwards. ”
Meng Yuan looked at Shang Mingcheng, with a fat belly, looking like a profiteer. "Uncle really deserves to be a businessman, but I still have a few thousand taels. I am considering whether she is worth the price, since the two of them are so respected, the kid will take this Ouyang Yanran. He slapped the table, pondered for a long time, and said, "Two thousand and ten taels." But I thought in my heart, Lao Tzu raised the price, so I didn't believe that Feng Junyuan's kid didn't increase the price.
Shang Mingcheng listened to this bidding, touched his stomach, and seemed a little speechless. He really thought that this young man would call out an overwhelming price of five thousand taels at once, but this extra ten taels would be interesting.
Sure enough, Feng Junyuan was so angry that he threw his wine glass on the ground and scolded, "What do they mean? The old man Feng An on the side persuaded: "Young master, there are those two on the other side, we are not offended." ”
"What then?"
Feng An looked puzzled: "The young man can only give up this competition for the time being." ”
"Chen Yongsi and Shang Mingcheng have written it down. As he spoke, he stared viciously at the private room of the two.
When the bustard heard the bidding, he was stunned for a moment and shouted, "Two thousand and ten springs of gold once...... Ladies and gentlemen, tonight Miss Ouyang will be bought by the guests on the third floor. Please wait a moment, Miss Ouyang will be dancing on stage soon. ”
Shang Mingcheng saw that the auction was over, looked at Meng Yuan with appreciation and said, "Little brother's move is really powerful, Shang admires it." ”
Chen Yongsi also understood when he heard this, looked at Meng Yuan and said, "I don't know where the little brother is, who is the teacher?"
Meng Yuan was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen and Shang and said, "I'll just call it, I don't want to spend money." Isn't it stupid to buy two thousand and ten taels of gold for one night? Can you get it back?"
Shang Mingcheng shook his head and said: "Don't say that there are masters in Xunlanju, but if people don't make a move, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to get out completely." ”
At this time, the bustard knocked on the door and asked which master had taken the picture. Meng Yuan's already dark face looked even darker, and he asked the old bustard if he could make a discount. The old bustard looked at Meng Yuan and said with a smile: "Son, don't joke with the slave family, how can this auction price be discounted." ”
Meng Yuan asked the bustard how to pay, and the bustard said that it could be used either in cash or by card. When Meng Yuan heard the word "credit card", he thought he had returned to the earth, and looked at the old bustard in disbelief and asked, "Swipe the card?"
Although the old bustard was very puzzled by Meng Yuan's intentions, he still took out a yellow jade card, pointed it and said, "You can just transfer the silver taels in the jade card to me." ”
Meng Yuan took the yellow jade plaque and saw that there were four big characters engraved on it - Mengyuan Commercial Bank, and a line of crooked words was engraved at the bottom, like English letters, "I was in Shangzhou".
Meng Yuan looked at the jade plaque and said to himself: "I'm in Shangzhou, there are people here who can speak English? Could it be that there are foreigners in the spiritual world, this is interesting." ”
When he came back to his senses, he gave the old bustard jade card and said, "I don't have this kind of jade card, I want to pay cash." ”
The old bustard was also a person who had seen the world, and knew that it should be something like a space treasure, and handed Meng Yuan a bag, similar to his storage bag. Meng Yuan paid two thousand and ten taels of gold to the bustard, and the bustard bowed and retreated.
Shang Mingcheng sighed: "Young people nowadays are really extravagant! For a woman, they spent two thousand taels of gold, which many people can't earn in a lifetime. ”
Meng Yuan looked at Shang Mingcheng angrily and said, "If it weren't for the two of you singing and seducing me, would I be able to make such a big investment? That's if I want to be 35 million soft girl coins, enough for me to buy a building." ”
Chen Yongsi brushed his beard and said: "Brother Mingcheng has really done a good business, and more than 2,000 taels have been paid in the account between talking and laughing, shouldn't I also help my brother?"
Shang Mingcheng smiled and said, "Brother Chen, the entire Lancheng is yours, do you still need my assistance?"
Meng Yuan finally understood, looked at the two old foxes in front of him, and although he was very angry, he pretended to be the eldest young master and said, "This is the case, I will definitely tell my father and thank you for this lesson." With that, he turned and left.
Chen and Shang glanced at each other and shook their heads, obviously unable to guess who Meng Yuan's father was.
