After a few days, Li Xiang rummaged through the inside and outside of the temple no less than ten times, and even took advantage of the absence of the Yaksha to go to the north courtyard to rummage through.

It turned out to be nothing.

So, he said goodbye to Yan Chixia and said that he was going to go out for a trip.

After all, when you come to this wonderful world of chatting, wouldn't it be a pity not to go out and travel around?

At that time, the area south of the Yangtze River was completely prosperous, and the rich side had already surpassed the Central Plains in an all-round way, and villages and towns could be seen everywhere, which was not as vast and sparsely populated as the north.

Paradise Suzhou and Hangzhou, Yanyu Yangzhou, prosperous Jinling...... I don't know how many legends of talented and beautiful women have been left.

There is also the world-famous Qinhuai River.

"The smoke cage is cold and the moon is long and sandy, and the night is close to the restaurant in Qinhuai. The merchant girl doesn't know the hatred of the country, and she still sings the backyard flowers across the river. ”

Here, I don't know how many legends have been left behind.

I don't know how many men's waists have been broken.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the fame reached its peak, Dong Xiaowan, Li Xiangjun, Chen Yuanyuan ...... Waiting for Qin Huai Bayan is the name of the legend.

When he came here, Li Xiang naturally wanted to see the customs of the Qinhuai River.

Night.

The river is brightly lit.

The reflection of the moonlight in the river and the lights on the boat reflect each other, and it is even more confusing.

Large and small painting boats or berths, or rippling water.

The night breeze sent bursts of warbler songs and swallows, as well as the intoxicating fragrance of fat powder.

This is a man's paradise, of course, the premise is to consume.

In the words of later generations, this is the concentration of all kinds of entertainment clubs, and most of them are high-end clubs.

A veritable gold cave.

Li Xiang walked along the riverbank for a while, and his eyes suddenly locked on a splendid painting boat.

In terms of size, this boat can only be considered medium, but it looks extraordinary, and it has a sense of standing out from the crowd.

The boat is not moored on the shore, it is about 30 meters away from the river bank, and you have to ferry the boat to get on and off the boat.

"It's kind of interesting!"

Li Xiang muttered to himself and strode over.

"Childe wants to go to the painting boat?"

Seeing Li Xiang walking to the side of the boat, the guy holding the boat subconsciously asked, and looked Li Xiang up and down carefully.

"Not bad!"

"Childe just came from out of town, right? Have you ever heard of the consumption of our Hundred Flowers Boat? ”

Grass, despised?

Li Xiang frowned, raised his hand and took out a thousand taels of silver tickets: "Is it enough?" ”

"Haha, enough is enough, Childe, please forgive me, this is the rule of our Baihua Rental Boat, and you can't get on the ship without a hundred taels of silver."

One hundred taels of silver is not a small amount for ordinary people.

But it can only be the most basic consumption here, the kind of tea and chatting.

After all, it is Wang Sun Gongzi who comes to the painting boat to consume more, not to mention a hundred taels of silver, and thousands of taels are consumed in one night, and some people throw tens of thousands of taels to compete for the oiran.

The boat is divided into two floors, and the decoration is quite luxurious.

Persian carpets, all kinds of antiques, celebrity calligraphy and paintings, as if entering the palace.

The upper floor is a tea room and a guest room, which is equivalent to a private room, and the lower floor is a hall, with more than a dozen long small tables, and a lot of exquisite pastries, melons and fruits are placed on the table for guests to eat.

As soon as Li Xiang entered the hall, an old woman greeted him.

said that she was an old mother, but she still had three points of charm, and her clothes were quite decent, but the smile looked fake: "Yo, the son is so good, the first time you come to our Baihuafang?" ”

"Hmm!"

Li Xiang responded lightly, and found a small table nearby and sat down.

Maybe seeing that Li Xiang was only one person, and he didn't dress like a rich son, the old mother was lazy to socialize, turned around and said lazily: "Give this son a pot of wine." ”

Soon, someone put the wine on the table.

Li Xiang poured himself a drink while looking around.

There were about twenty people in the hall, sitting in twos and threes drinking and chatting.

After a while, the old mother walked to the screen in the hall and said happily: "Ladies and gentlemen, you have been waiting for a long time, and the narcissus girl will be here soon!" ”

As soon as these words came out, there was a commotion in the hall.

Come to think of it, there are many people who are coming for her.

Li Xiang was silent, and took a small sip of wine......

In fact, he didn't really come on the boat to have fun, but found that there was a demonic aura leaking out of the boat, so he came up to find out.

Sure enough, after getting on the boat, I found that the old woman was not an ordinary person......

Soon, a tall, radiant woman walked out, surrounded by four other women.

"Narcissus!"

Immediately, her name was shouted aloud.

"Thank you for joining us!"

Narcissus smiled and bowed, and then, the music sounded, Narcissus danced the cloud sleeves, sang and danced lightly, the autumn waves flowed, the indescribable charm, the inexhaustible charming...... provoked a lot of men's blood boiling.

The end of the song.

Narcissus blessed again, and then turned away.

The graceful back hooked the souls of most of the men in the field.

The old mother walked to the front with a spring breeze on her face and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, Narcissus is one of the three new Oirans of our Baihuafang, not only beautiful, but also easy to ...... piano, chess, calligraphy and painting."

Before she could finish speaking, a richly dressed man shouted: "Okay, don't brag about it, we know it in our hearts, so let's get to the point." ”

The old mother smiled: "Okay, it seems that everyone can't wait to spend a good night with the narcissus, the old rule, five hundred taels of bidding, and a price increase of fifty taels ......"

"Six hundred taels!"

"Seven hundred taels!"

When even someone starts bidding loudly.

A few hundred taels of silver may be enough for ordinary people to live for a lifetime, but here, it has become like scrap iron......

said that it was fifty taels plus one, but almost all of the people directly increased the price by one hundred taels, with a look of ambition.

When it was added to fifteen hundred taels, the voice began to fall.

This price is high enough, but the old mother is obviously not satisfied, seeing that she is going to be cold, she jumped out in time to fan the flames: "Wu Gongzi bid 15 taels, which other son is willing to increase the price, and drink on a boat with the Narcissus Girl and share the beautiful scenery?" ”

"One thousand six hundred taels!"

"Ha, it turned out to be Zhou Gongzi......"

"One thousand seven hundred taels!"

"Two thousand!"

Zhou Gongzi's face turned cold, and he directly added three hundred.

Wu Gongzi frowned, hesitated for a while, and then laughed and said, "Since Zhou Gongzi is so sincere, the junior brother will accept it today." ”

"Congratulations to Gongzi Zhou, congratulations to Gongzi Zhou......"

At that moment, someone slapped the sycophants loudly.

"Three thousand taels!"

Unexpectedly, at this time, someone quoted again, and directly increased the price by 1,000 taels.

Although the sound was not loud, it was like a thunderbolt, which shocked everyone to look at it......

It was Li Xiang who had been drinking with his head bored.

In a word, let alone three thousand taels, it doesn't matter if you add a few more zeros.

Anyway, he didn't plan to pay the money at all......
