Yin Li was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood: "What you said is reasonable, if it is wrong, Guozijian can only make a mistake, if they dare to remove my name, won't they slap themselves in the face." Well, fuck it, it's too lazy to think about it, let's go, eat, I'm in for a treat. ”

Song Dazhong stopped and said, "I won't eat anymore, I have to go to the Imperial Tower." ”

Yin Li and Dian Xingyue looked at each other, and Yin Li asked, "What are you going to do in the Imperial Tower?"

Song Dazhong said: "The Night Hades Hall is now operating in the two cities in the southeast, and when the stall is big, it is always necessary to learn to operate, and the hall master said that the business of the Imperial Mansion is doing well, and he should learn from them with an open mind." No, yesterday the hall master told me that he wanted to open a bathhouse, and I was in charge of it, and he asked me to go to the Imperial Tower to have a look at the Yuming Building when I was free for the past two days, and see how their bathhouse was opened. ”

Yin Li sighed: "Learn to do business? So, you're going to take a bath." ”

Song Dazhong smiled dryly: "Yes, only after soaking can you know what's good." ”

Yin Li stretched his muscles and bones, and said with a smile: "It's good to take a bath, it's too troublesome to take a bath in an inn, I haven't taken a bath for two days, so I just want to go with you." In this way, I will treat you, and everyone will go together, and it will be more lively. ”

"No, no, no. Song Dazhong waved his hand again and again.

He said that he and Yin Li could go, and the rest of the people would go back first, because Bai Yusheng had specially instructed that the relationship between the Night Hades Hall and the Imperial Mansion was delicate, and people should not go too much, so as not to attract people's attention and cause unnecessary trouble. Yin Li thought to himself, the forces in the outer city are complicated, and it is right to be cautious, he understands Song Dazhong, and he is no longer reluctant. Song Dazhong asked Mei Lina and the others to go back to the Night Hades Hall first, and then confessed to Dian Xingyue and Yan Xiaoxiao, and finally left with Yin Li.

......

The two men passed through the inner gates, came to the outer city, and then turned to the west.

This imperial capital is really amazing, and the two of them walked steadily for an hour before they arrived at the palace building.

Yin Li pointed to the Imperial Mansion and said, "I've been here once, and it's really quite new." ”

Song Dazhong sighed: "It's not just a novelty, I think it's not something that people can come up with at all, and it's difficult to learn their business model elsewhere." In the past few days, I have come here to turn around twice, the first floor is called a bar, and it is really crowded at night; the second floor is a gambling house, I have never heard of many gambling methods, and it is very weird; the third floor is called a sauna, and I have raised a large group of lovely people, specializing in pushing people back massage; as for the fourth, five, six, seven, and eight floors are inns, which are decorated more beautifully than the palace, and I have never seen the bed or the bathtub. All in all, there are as many as ten such businesses in the two cities in the northwest, and it is said that they pay five million gold in taxes to the Son of Heaven every year, and the net income is as high as eight million gold, which is much more than the annual income of a vassal state. ”

Yin Li was shocked: "Just this business makes eight million a year! ”

Song Dazhong smiled bitterly: "What you see is only a small part of the Imperial Tower, don't you realize that the two cities in the northwest are twice as large as the two cities in the southeast, and the extra part is all built by the Imperial Tower, and the rent alone is hundreds of thousands of gold every year." In addition, they also built many houses on the outskirts of Xicheng, specializing in the manufacture of weapons, leather, and daily necessities, both cheap and expensive, and even the military department had to purchase their weapons and leathers, and it is said that they also exported these weapons and leathers to the Gaman Empire. ”

Yin Li sighed secretly, he couldn't imagine that the annual income of the Yuming Tower was more than ten times that of Yindi.

He only felt ashamed and shabby, and muttered, "No wonder the shopkeeper is so generous." ”

Song Dazhong listened to him talking to himself, and asked strangely: "What, have you ever seen the flower shopkeeper?"

Yin Li shook his head and smiled dryly: "I didn't, Sister Xingyue has seen her a few times." ”

Song Dazhong said: "I heard that this flower shopkeeper is extremely good-looking, and his cultivation is surprisingly high, which is a good gamble, I heard the brothers of the Night Hades Hall say that the flower shopkeeper is ten gambles and nine losses, once she gambled in the Garman Empire for three days and three nights, and lost a full four million gold in a daze, she is really a loser." ”

Yin Li heard so many strange things, and felt more and more harsh.

The Imperial Tower is a kind of irony for the vassal states.

This is a business field, and it is even more princely than princes.

He said: "Hearing you say this, I wonder what is different about the bathhouse here, let's go, take a bath." ”

Song Dazhong said yes, but did not enter the Imperial Tower, but took Yin Liliu to the north street.

This building has eight floors and is located in the middle of the cross street, but business is everywhere, with the building as the center, the south street is grocery stores, restaurants, pharmacies, etc., and the north street is full of lanterns, which is very beautiful, and there are green buildings, theater gardens, bathhouses, etc.

The two walked to the middle of the north street and saw the word "Yaochi" written on a door.

From time to time, there are three or five people, seven or eight people laughing in and out, and the business is very good.

Inside the gate is a forest with cherry blossom trees, which are pink and red, and they are extremely beautiful.

Walking into this cherry blossom forest, it is really like entering a picture scroll, like entering a fairyland.

Yin Li looked at this amazing scene and couldn't help but wonder: "It's really wonderful." ”

Passing through the forest path, there is a row of quaint, black and white low houses with a delicate appearance.

The guy who greeted the guests outside the door of the low house saw that there was a guest and welcomed Yin Li and Song Dazhong in. Entering the door, inside is a small hall, unusually clean, the innermost is a counter, the left and right sides of the counter neatly moved a few low tables, each with a few cushions. The guy asked the two of them to sit down for a while, then fetched clean bathrobes and slippers from the counter and beckoned them to the changing room to change.

Such a service and business model opened the eyes of Yin Li and Song Dazhong.

In their impression, soaking in the bathhouse is not just going in and soaking away.

It's such a clean bathhouse, not to mention soaking, and I've never heard of it.

It's wonderful, change into a yukata, put on slippers, and don't see that the heart of the bath has entered, and the two of them are very happy. Song Dazhong said: "This is the power of the Imperial Tower, a piece of clothing, a pair of slippers, it will hit people's hearts." ”

Yin Li smiled: "I don't think it's that simple, the place to take a bath is the point." ”

Under the leadership of the guy, the two came to the backyard, and there were dozens of sliding doors in front of them.

What is jaw-dropping is that when I opened the sliding door, there was actually a mixed bath inside.

Strictly speaking, it is not a mixed bath, in fact, there is a screen wall inside the sliding door, men enter and exit from the left, women enter and exit from the right, and in the middle of the bath there is a two-meter-high rockery, separating men and women. Although there are rockeries as barriers, men and women can't see each other, but bathing in a pool is also the most daring business method in the world today.
