Chapter 42: Tragedy in a brothel

After the opening night, Fengyue Tower had an additional nickname: Mirror Building, and the opening dance "Fairy Scattered Flowers" has since become the signature dance of Fengyue Building. Many dignitaries and nobles came to admire the fairy style, and the seven dancing girls who played the fairies became famous overnight and were worth a hundred times.

When Lu Xin came to Xiao Lan Pavilion, she saw Xiao Niang watering the orchids, which surprised Lu Xin for a while, she thought, will she do these rough jobs herself? It seems that she must be in love with these orchids.

After the two of them sat down, Xiao Niang said: "Miss Xin'er has indeed made Fengyue Tower famous this time, I don't know what other tricks there are in the future?"

Lu Xin also said straight to the point: "I only hope that Xiao Niang can keep her original promise, I will make enough two thousand taels for you Fengyue Mansion to let my maid go, and I can't do anything else."

Xiao Niang knew that even if she didn't take the initiative to find Lu Xin this time, Lu Xin would come to her in person.

Xiao Niang said: "I promised, and I will definitely keep my promise, but this business that has been closed for a month, how can it be earned back in three or two nights, and I ask Miss Xin'er to stay for a few more days."

Lu Xin didn't grow up a vegetarian, although she wasn't 100% sure that last night's business would make a full month's profit. However, the calculation is not much different. Next, Fengyue Tower's business will definitely take advantage of this momentum and become prosperous.

Xiao Niang threw another problem to Lu Xin, she said: "Miss Xin'er should also understand the truth that "deep love is not long, wisdom must be hurt, strong is humiliated, and prosperity must decline"! This time, Fengyue Tower can be very prosperous, it is indeed the credit of Miss Xin'er, but after all, this Fengyue Tower is a place of fireworks, and the people who come are people who like the new and hate the old, how can they keep the business for a long time? ”

Lu Xin thought about it, what Xiao Niang said was indeed such a possibility, she said: "It's better to set "Fairy Scattered Flowers" to be performed once a month, as the so-called scarcity is expensive, and it will definitely be as lively and exciting as it is now." During this time, you need to practice some new tunes and dances for guests to watch and change their feelings. In addition, there is nothing else to think about, after all, this is already no one who can compare to your Fengyue Tower, why worry about business will be deserted? ”

After hearing this, Xiao Niang was very satisfied with Lu Xin's words, she said: "Miss Xin'er has a lot of credit this time, do you want any reward?"

Lu Xin said: "Xiao Niang is a shrewd businessman, and she should also be rewarded and punished clearly. The reason why this opening can be so successful, I don't dare to take credit alone, I hope that Xiao Niang can treat everyone equally, and give some rewards to the girls and guys in the building to be inspired. ”

Xiao Niang listened, bowed her head slightly, and expressed her approval, and appreciated Lu Xin's attitude of being pampered and not shocked. She immediately instructed the abacus, "Let us distribute all the rewards to the people today."

The abacus man immediately replied: "The abacus gong thanked Xiao Niang for the reward on behalf of everyone in the building."

After Lu Xin returned to the room, Xiaoxuan asked anxiously, "Miss, how is it?" Will they let us go? ”

Lu Xin sighed and said: "How can it be so easy, Xiao Niang saw that I had usable value this time, and she definitely wouldn't let me go so easily, only to blame me for my lack of consideration at the time and didn't know how to hide my edge."

Xiao Xuan hurriedly said, "Then..., Miss, what should we do?"

Lu Xin comforted her and said: "It's okay, we are not in a hurry to go out for the time being, and it may not be beneficial for us to go out." It will take some time for the Lu family's affairs to be forgotten, and it is also beneficial for us to hide here for the time being. Moreover, the road to Yuli is long, so we might as well earn some money here first, and then use it on the road later. I will discuss this matter with Xiao Niang, you can stay here with peace of mind for the time being. ”

After listening to this, Xiaoxuan thought about it again and felt that Miss was thinking about the long-term and comprehensive. She believes that they will definitely get better and better in the future.

There will always be a lot of tragic things going on in brothels.

One day, Xiaoxuan ran back to the room with a pale face and locked the door heavily.

Lu Xin was reading a book in the room, and when she saw Xiao Xuan running in in a panic, she hurriedly asked, "Why are you so flustered?"

Xiao Xuan gasped and said, "Miss, there is a dead person in the building, and the slave maid saw it when she just passed by the next room."

Lu Xin asked anxiously when she heard this, "What's going on?"

Xiao Xuan still looked frightened and said, "The slave doesn't know, the slave .........."

Lu Xin didn't wait for her to finish, then said, "Let's go, let's take a look."

When Lu Xin rushed to the next room, the body of the prostitute who had just died was still there, and there were two prostitutes crying bitterly next to her, it was estimated that they were the deceased's best friends in Fengyue Building before his death, and many people around looked at it expressionlessly, and no one stepped forward to comfort him.

Everyone was a little surprised when they saw Lu Xin coming over. When Lu Xin walked over, she smelled a foul smell of feces, which made people sick to their stomachs. When she looked at the deceased's face again, she saw that her eyes were round, she looked so intimidating, and there was a very thick bruise on her neck, which turned out to be hanged.

Lu Xin knew what the death of the hanged man was. When she was a child, she had heard an old man at the school vigil tell her about it. He said that if the deceased dies, the anus will be opened, and if there is a foul smell in the hanged man's room, it means that the hanged man is hopeless.

Lu Xin endured her nausea and asked a prostitute onlookers, "What's going on?"

The prostitute said with a little sympathy: "Sister Xiang has been ransomed a few months ago, and she happily told us that she was going to marry her good friend." But who knows, a month ago, she came back again. Xiao Niang saw that she had nowhere to go, so she continued to take her in. After she came back, she was always depressed and depressed, and she couldn't think about it now, hey! It's fate! ”

After hearing this, Lu Xin probably knew what was going on. It's nothing more than this prostitute named Sister Xiang who met Chen Shimei, a ruthless and unrighteous man, and after being cheated out of money and sex by him, he ridiculed him again, and the man patted his ass and left.

This kind of thing has existed since ancient times, Lu Xin had read Du Shi Niang's story, but it was just a story for her, and now what was in front of her was a living example. She felt a pang of regret and heartache in her heart. In ancient times, for women, men were the support of their lives, and losing them was equivalent to despair.

At this time, the old mother walked in with two family members, and when she saw Lu Xin, she was taken aback and hurriedly said: "Ouch, my Miss Xin'er, such an obscure place, how can you come with this identity, hurry up, go back to the room, don't get lucky, we are still counting on you in Fengyuelou!"

Lu Xin sighed, and walked out with Xiaoxuan. The old mother was still shouting: "Everyone is gone!" Scattered! This kind of thing, several times a year, is used to it. ”

Lu Xin walked out not very far, and when she turned around, she saw the two housekeepers carrying the dead prostitute to a broken mat, rolling it up and carrying it away.
