Chapter 234 Blind Confidence
Therefore, the next day, Qin Wan looked at the account book in her hand, listened to Bai Miao's report, and the corners of her eyes twitched, was she unable to keep up with the rhythm of the people of Shengjing?
When did Qinglou become so profitable?
She can understand the psychology of these people who hunt for curiosity and beauty, but the girls in the building have all changed, and they are not the same people as before. If she can understand the people's desire to hunt for beauty, what about those officials who join in the fun?
The people's minds are very simple, this was once a place frequented by the officials of Shengjing, and sleeping with the girls who were slept by these court officials can satisfy their distorted psychology - look, these high-ranking officials and nobles have slept with the girls, he has also slept with them, and he is psychologically balanced, and he is at a high level with the nobles.
But what are the intentions of those officials who are joining in the fun?
Do they want to test that they are powerful in bed, or do they want to test whether their concentration is stronger than the official who had the accident?
Qin Wan felt that she couldn't keep up with the rhythm of these people.
It stands to reason that something happened to this brothel, and the officials should retreat from it, not to mention that the old emperor was so angry, shouldn't this kind of thing be temporarily slowed down, how hungry are they?
Unlike Qin Wan's inexplicable, Bai Miao was excited.
After following Qin Wan for so long, it's finally time for him to show his talents!
In the harem, she is used to being trampled on, Bai Miao knows how to read people's eyes better than anyone else, and knows how to use people's hearts. If before, he instinctively chose to do or not to do it, and after following Qin Wan's side, he found that this was his talent. He seemed to be naturally sensitive and knew how to use the human heart to do things for himself, which made him excited.
Just like this time, this brothel should obviously be taboo, especially those officials in the court, in this extraordinary period, not only to manage their lower body, but also to restrain the desires in their hearts, but he was stunned to let these people come, and lingered, excitedly forgetting whether he could control his mouth.
Qin Wan raised his head tremblingly and asked, "You said they came on their own initiative, and ...... With the intention of flattering? ”
Bai Miao nodded excitedly, "Miss, these people's minds are not so complicated, they just want to curry favor with the new owner of the brothel." ”
Seeing Qin Wan frowning, Bai Miao explained: "Miss, think about it, this brothel has been remembered by the saint, not to mention confiscation, who would dare to take over?" Just take over, who dares to continue to open a brothel? But in front of everyone's eyes, this brothel was reopened, and there was no embarrassment on the Holy Side, and the ministers of the court, even if they were well-informed, did not know the details of this brothel. These days, there are many people who secretly investigate the people behind the brothel, but to no avail. The more they can't find anything, the more powerful these people feel. If you can get the acquiescence of the saint, take over the brothel, and hide the details so well, will it be small? So naturally, these people want to come up and curry favor. ”
Using the body to curry favor?
Qin Wan smiled, "Then according to what you said, these people are telling the county lord that they have the heart to make friends with the county lord?" ”
Seeing Bai Miao nodded, Qin Wan said again: "However, they are not afraid that the person behind this brothel is Shengshang, and no one dares to take it over anyway, so they simply use it to play with Shengshang?" ”
"It's better," Bai Miao said, "if they really think so, it will be better for us, they think they are pleasing the emperor, but in the end all the money will fall into our hands." ”
What kind of logic is this?
Qin Wan felt that she was old and couldn't keep up with Bai Miao's rhythm.
Bai Miao looked disapproving, "Miss, no matter what, we can earn money, and getting the news you want is our purpose." ”
"That's right." Qin Wan nodded.
Although there are a lot of patrons, it is not so easy to find out the news, but Qin Wan has confidence in the girls in his hand, after all, they have been specially trained, and the city government still has them.
Because the escort route of grain, grass and military pay was exposed, the old emperor handed over the escort task to Chu Fan, and in desperation, Chu Fan went on the road with a complaint. Compared with Chu Fan's dissatisfaction, Qin Wan breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, she didn't know why she was happy in her heart, but she rarely had a good mood.
Although Xiao Jingxing said that he had his own mansion, he would often go to the county lord's mansion when he was fine, he inexplicably left Jinru in the county lord's mansion, Qin Wan gritted his teeth aggrievedly, but he was helpless.
As a result, Jinru has become the most special existence in the county lord's mansion, neither need to serve the master, nor look at anyone's face, her daily task is to take care of herself, eat when she should eat, and sleep when she should sleep.
Jinru had never been so frightened as she was now, and she couldn't follow Xiao Jingxing, which made her feel that she would be abandoned at any time, and tried every means to inquire about Xiao Jingxing's whereabouts, and even, on two occasions, she stood in front of the door of Xiao Jingxing's mansion, but she finally didn't have the courage to knock on the door of Xiao Mansion.
As the person who has been with Xiao Jingxing for the longest time, Jinru knows Xiao Jingxing the best, he is not the kind of ungrateful person, and he will not carry their friendship since childhood, but what Xiao Jingxing is doing now, she really can't understand it, and her heart is very unsteady.
However, the only thing that can reassure her is that Xiao Jingxing will go to the county lord's mansion from time to time, although she comes to visit Bai Zhishui and Qin Wan, but at this time, she can take a look from afar. It's just that, with the passage of time, she is no longer satisfied with the current situation.
"Young Master." Jin Ru stood in the garden, holding a bouquet of unknown wildflowers in her hand, and looked at Xiao Jingxing happily, with undisguised surprise on her face.
Xiao Jingxing frowned, "Why are you here?" ”
Jin Ru said crampedly: "Back to the young master, the slave is fine, just go to the garden for a walk, and by the way, pick two bouquets of wild flowers and go back to the yard to raise." ”
Xiao Jingxing nodded slightly, "You're still used to living here, right?" ”
"Back to the young master, the county master is very good to the slave maid." After speaking, he was afraid that Xiao Jingxing would not believe it, so he rubbed the corners of his clothes intentionally or unintentionally.
Jin Ru was wearing a new dress, which was purchased according to the specifications of the county lord's mansion, but her mind was very clever, and she embroidered a lily on the corner of the clothes, and the whole dress was immediately different, setting off her whole person.
Xiao Jingxing's attention was not on Jinru, after listening to her, he nodded directly and said, "You follow the county lord and use more thought and serve the county lord well." ”
"Young Master!" Seeing that Xiao Jingxing was leaving, Jin Ru hurriedly stopped him, met Xiao Jingxing's inquiring gaze, Jin Ru blushed and said, "Young Master, can the slave follow you back to Xiao Mansion?" Young master, the slave and the maid have no other meaning, the slave and the maid are not ungrateful people, the county lord's care of the slave and the maid, the slave and the maid keep it in mind, if there is a chance, the slave and the maid will definitely repay the county master. But the slave maid is the maid by your side, what is it to stay in the county lord's mansion? Slaves and maids can neither serve the county lord nor serve the young master, the duty of slaves and maids is to serve their masters, and slaves and maids are really embarrassed in the county lord's mansion. ”
Jin Ru glanced at Xiao Jingxing slightly, and finished her words tremblingly.
Xiao Jingxing didn't care, "You stay with the county lord for the time being." ”
"But, but, ......" Jinru looked at Xiao Jingxing hesitantly, "Young master, there is no need for slaves and maids to serve around the county lord, slaves and maids want to serve by the young master's side, slaves and maids know that the young master is busy and rarely in the house, and the slaves and maids can help you look at the backyard, so that the slaves and maids still feel that they are useful." The slave maid has nothing to help in the county lord's mansion, and she still gets monthly silver, and the slave and maid are ...... I always feel ashamed of it. ”
Xiao Jingxing comforted: "You can rest assured, Jiaojiao is not the kind of stingy person, I entrust her to take care of you, she will definitely not embarrass you, the reason why I didn't let you follow me, first, I rarely go back to the house, there is nothing to watch in the backyard, the house is full of men, and it is not convenient for you to be a woman, second, I have a grudge with that side, you also know, now that I am fledgling and growing, I will definitely do something to stop me, you are in the house, I am not at ease." ”
"Young Master......" Jin Rujiao looked at Xiao Jingxing shyly.
She knew that the young master had always cared about her the most, worried that she would follow a group of men in the backyard, which would damage her reputation, and worried about her safety, so she left her, and the young master was thinking about her.
Jin Ru guessed, the young master cared so much about her reputation, was he worried that she would be wronged because of these things if she followed him in the future?
Does it mean that the young master will accept her soon?
Jinru's cheeks blushed, and she twisted: "Young master, the slave knows your intentions, and the slave will not cause you unnecessary trouble, so according to the young master's orders, the slave and maid will stay in the county lord's mansion." ”
Xiao Jingxing frowned, knowing that Jinru had misunderstood, but he didn't explain, raised his feet, and walked towards "Jiaoyuan".
Dai Le followed behind Xiao Jingxing, and when he passed by Jinru's side, he hesitated to take two steps slower, "Jinru, don't forget your identity." ”
Jin Ru glared dissatisfiedly, "Dai Le, I know you are kind, but you have also seen the young master's attitude towards me, our relationship with the young master is different from that of outsiders, and I can follow the young master, which is also my creation." Also, what do I do to the young master, you know best, with me by the young master's side, it will definitely make the young master's backyard sit back and relax, and the young master's mind can be placed on the court. Compared with those women outside, only I have true feelings for the young master, I followed the young master when he was most unwilling, those people outside, which one of them was not connected with the young master because of interests? It's just me, only I don't give up on the young master, but I can be poor and rich. Say something disrespectful," Jin Ru raised her eyebrows and looked at Dai Le condescendingly, "If the young master doesn't have his current achievements, do you think those families will be eyeing the young master and will use various methods to get those women close to the young master?" The young master's identity is embarrassing, and when he hasn't been recognized by the other side, how can these people ever put the young master in their eyes? Now, the young master has made great achievements, and the people over there frequently show favor to the young master, and these people have seen the wind and made the rudder slap the young master. On the one hand, it is the young master's own ability, and on the other hand, it is because of that side. It's just me, Dai Le, only I'm the one to the end of the young master, no matter whether the young master is down-and-out or rich, only I have been by the young master's side, and I have no second thoughts. As for the county lord......"
