Chapter 63: Goals
Guy leads the way. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ info Fang Xiaobao greeted Zhang Puma Wenfang, and the group of three people strode over.
When he was about to walk into the hall on the ground floor of Baihua Building, Ma Wenfang suddenly paused, and said with an unnatural expression: "Owner, I'd better stay outside and wait!" β
Of course, Fang Xiaobao knew the reason why this right-hand man was reluctant to go in. I saw him leaning over and whispering in Ma Wenfang's ear: "This is business!" Wen Fang, if my sister-in-law blames her, I will block it for you! β
Ma Wenfang is good at everything, but she is afraid of his wife. Fang Xiaobao took him to Baihualou for recreation tonight, and he did a lot of work in advance.
Without waiting for Ma Wenfang to speak again, Fang Xiaobao directly pulled his arm and dragged him in.
Crossing the threshold, you will see the ground floor hall, which covers an area of several thousand square meters. The dΓ©cor is luxurious and resplendent. A two-meter-high stage is set up directly in front of you, on which a young woman in an ancient dress twists her waist and dances to the sound of soft music.
Below, tables are set along the stage. The house was full of guests.
Fang Xiaobao looked carefully, these guests were richly dressed, and they were obviously from rich backgrounds. Among them, there are also a few acquaintances, all of whom are businessmen who have business dealings with them, hugging left and right at the moment, drinking flower wine.
"Isn't that old money!"
Ma Wenfang also saw acquaintances. He seemed to be very unaccustomed to the extravagant atmosphere of the beautiful women here, frowned, and muttered: "This guy usually looks like he has a good eye, but he didn't expect it to be okay!" β
Old Qian is a middle-aged man. Running a decoration business. The eight stores of Yipinzhai are all decorated by the other party, which is an old acquaintance. This person who deals with Ma Wenfang on weekdays seems to be very honest. Now he is hugging left and right, and he is sitting on his lap with a beautiful woman in his arms, which is very bold.
"Don't look! Watch more and be careful with the eye of the long needle! β
Fang Xiaobao laughed. Greet the guy and go straight upstairs. Ma Wenfang followed. Zhang Biao was half a beat slower, looking east and west, like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, her face full of curiosity.
"Brother Biao, let's go!"
Fang Xiaobao beckoned. Although there are many guests on the ground floor, they are basically merchants, and there is no one he wants to befriend. Therefore, I don't want to linger, so as not to be seen by acquaintances, and the greetings are entangled.
The interior design of Baihualou is semi-elliptical. Walk up the stairs to the second floor, and enter a circular corridor, where tables are placed every seven or eight meters against the railing. Guests can take their seats and enjoy a drink while enjoying the wonderful stage performances downstairs.
"Young Master, you are on the second floor...... Or go straight to the third floor? The greeter nodded and asked.
Fang Xiaobao thought for a while and said, "Ye likes to be lively, so it's on the second floor!" β
Before coming over, Fang Xiaobao did his homework and had an understanding of the general situation here. Baihualou has three floors, the bottom has the most people, and the consumption level is also the lowest, most of them are businessmen with a few dollars in their pockets. The second floor is much higher, and the patrons are either nobles or big merchants in the imperial capital.
The third floor belongs to the VIP hall, closed layout, with eighteen private rooms, large area, complete internal facilities, and an independent stage, Oiran performance.
As for consumption, the VIP room on the third floor is at least 10,000 gold yuan a night.
Another point is that the third floor is only open to nobles, and registration is required before consumption. Although Fang Xiaobao is also qualified, he doesn't want to be too ostentatious, or show his identity too early.
Therefore, he chose to be on the second floor. There are also nobles coming and going here, and if you are lucky, you may meet one or two who are willing to make friends.
"Good! Young master, please come with the little one! β
The welcome guy didn't look down on Fang Xiaobao because he chose the second floor. He has been in Baihualou for a long time, and he knows that some nobles like to be lively, so they choose to sit on the second floor and have fun.
Previously rewarded lavishly. It works at the moment. The welcome man was familiar with the road, and led Fang Xiaobao and his party to the middle seat of the corridor on the second floor.
"Young master, this place is facing the stage downstairs, and the sight is good...... Outside is the Weishui River, standing by the window you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the moonlit night! The welcome man nodded and led Fang Xiaobao and them to their seats.
"Well, yes, yes."
Fang Xiaobao looked at the surrounding environment and nodded, quite satisfied. After that, he directly ordered the guys to have a few side dishes, and specially ordered a jar of Baihua Aging. What is it like to have the heart to taste this so-called one-of-a-kind aged wine?
"Young master, do you need a girl to accompany you for a drink?" The guy asked with a smirk on his face.
"No, you don't!"
Before Fang Xiaobao could speak, Ma Wenfang waved his hand directly, politely refusing the guy's 'kindness'.
"How can you come to the kiln and not call the girl!"
With the mentality of 'following the customs', Fang Xiaobao said wantonly to the guys: "Just what kind of oiran are you, call the two of you to come over and give the master a drink!" β
So the owner said. Ma Wenfang naturally didn't want to say anything more.
"This ...... I'm afraid not now! β
The guy has a hard face. After that, he pointed downstairs to the stage and said another rule of Baihualou.
"The Four Oirans are different from ordinary girls, and they only appear at nine o'clock every night...... At that time, all the guests present will bid against each other, and the highest bidder will be eligible to be accompanied by Oiran! β
At this point, the guy didn't forget to add: "It's just to accompany the wine, if the young master still wants to 'other', you need to nod voluntarily before you can do it!" β
Fang Xiaobao had already learned about this rule from Gao Dejin's mouth. Now it's just posturing.
"Then forget it!" I saw him waving his hand. The guy immediately stepped back and went to the back kitchen Zhang Luo.
"The owner of this kiln is very good at business!"
There are only three Fang Xiaobao left. He looked at Ma Wenfang and said this with a smile.
"There are too many variables in the bidding auction...... One bad one can raise the appearance fee of the Oiran tenfold or even a hundredfold! "Ma Wenfang analyzed thoroughly.
"The premise is that these four Oirans must have an outstanding appearance!"
Fang Xiaobao added, then looked at Ma Wenfang with a smile and said: "This is just an Oiran to accompany the wine, if you want to 'go deeper', it is estimated that you can't take any 108,000 yuan...... Tsk, the boss of Baihualou has a dark heart, and everyone is really wronged...... And the girls under his own hands are all inlaid with gold! β
"What's the golden force?" Zhang Biao didn't understand.
Ma Wenfang frowned and whispered: "Boss, pay attention to your words, don't bring bad children!" β
"Old Ma, you said I was a child!" This time, Zhang Biao understood, and glared angrily at Ma Wenfang. Even though he was a 'big kid', he hated it when people said that.
"Didn't say you...... I'm talking about the owner! Ma Wenfang hurriedly explained. If you say that there are people in the entire farm, there are people he can't afford to offend, it is not Fang Xiaobao, the owner, but Zhang Biao, a 'big child' who doesn't grow up.
Because he angered this big child, he would really punch people with his fists.
"Wen Fang, let you learn the housekeeper's wife, now you're deflated!" Fang Xiaobao couldn't help laughing when he saw that Ma Wenfang was cautious about making amends.
Soon, the guy returned. Bring a few delicate side dishes, and a jar of flowers for aging.
Zhang Biao, who was still yelling with Ma Wenfang, immediately closed his mouth when he saw the wine and food on the table.
"I won't quarrel with you first, I'll talk about it after eating!" Active truce. Zhang Biao smashed the sealing mud and drank it directly in the wine jar.
Ma Wenfang breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing Zhang Biao's hungry wolf-like appearance, he thought about it, and immediately ordered the guys to add vegetables and bring two more jars of wine.
"That's pretty much it!" Zhang Biao ate and drank, and by the way, he threw a 'forgive you' look at Ma Wenfang.
Fang Xiaobao smiled. After that, he turned his head to look around at the adjacent table.
It doesn't matter if you spend money on food, drink, and entertainment. The task of coming to Baihualou tonight cannot be forgotten. At this moment, he began to carefully examine the guests around him, looking for a suitable target.
Not to mention, good luck.
Fang Xiaobao quickly locked on the target, and he was still an acquaintance.
