Chapter 7 Fat and Oily
Li Yue, who has crossed over from modern times, understands that every one of the powerful and rich gentry in the late Ming Dynasty was fat.
When the emperor sold all his belongings to raise military salaries, none of these rich gentry and powerful people were willing to pay an extra copper plate.
But compared to showing off wealth, one is stronger than the other, and it is faster than one to take refuge in foreigners.
At this time, in Li Yue's eyes, these rich sons and brothers around him were like pigs full of fat waiting to be slaughtered.
"Young master, they are all big families in the city, and even some of them are more powerful than our Li family, if you move them, I'm afraid it will cause a monstrous disaster!"
Yue'er said with a worried face.
"Haha, you stupid girl, I didn't kill them now, I just learned about their strength, and when the time comes, it's time to sharpen your knives."
Li Yue smiled very charmingly, and the rich boy who was present for a while was the most polite and polite of him, and he looked a bit of a literati and ink writer.
At the same time, the old bustard brought two women dressed in light gauze brocade clothes to the private seat.
One was dressed in a cyan gauze and the other in a purple gauze, although the clothes were very decent.
But the material is thin and clear, and the delicate figure is looming, which makes Yue'er on the side blush a little.
"Two sons, do you think these two are good?"
The old bustard said very respectfully.
"Yes, let's stay, let them stand aside and bring us tea and water."
Li Yue didn't look at the two Qing officials at all, but looked at the arrogant sons and brothers in other boxes.
And this move made the old bustard all look at it.
"Oh, these two sons are very handsome, they are not interested in women, they are here to see men, there is no follow-up."
The old bustard's face was a little gloomy, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
She originally thought that there were two fat sheep to be slaughtered, but she didn't expect that the food chosen by these two fat sheep was not meat, but grass.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Dong Xiaoxuan, the current Oiran of Luohuajian, is opening for the first time today, there is not much nonsense, and the one with the highest price will get it."
A dwarf who was only three feet seven inches tall, after the introduction with a gong and drum, the sound of gongs and drums immediately began to cause a commotion in the audience.
"Young master, they ......"
Yue'er was just halfway through her words when she was choked back by a look from Li Yue.
"Big brother, what does this opening mean?"
Yue'er, who knew that she had called the wrong person, immediately changed her words and called Li Yue her eldest brother.
At this time, the two Qing officials who accompanied him didn't care about the words of the two, but just knocked on their backs and pinched their shoulders on the side.
"It's time for the two of us to come, the Oiran in this Luohua Stream is going to leave the cabinet today, and the opening is to hand over the first time in her life to someone who is willing to spend money for her."
Li Yue did not have any obscurity, and said the meaning of the opening very bluntly.
This caused Yue'er's face to turn red, and she lowered her head in shame.
"I'll give you a hundred taels."
In a box opposite the two of them, a powerful man in his early thirties shouted loudly.
"Now anyone dares to come over to participate in the opening, I really don't know how thick my bottom is!"
A rich man in his twenties, with crooked lips and slanted eyes, said.
"Zhang Er was stunned, didn't you just have a few more pigs at home? So what? Let me tell you, we have been taking a few darts in the Shuncheon Dart Bureau recently, and we are rich. ”
The man in his thirties stood up and loudly scolded Zhang Gongzi in another box.
"Surnamed Xu, I'll show you what it means to eat flowers and wine, and the money is more than what you are worth!"
Zhang Gongzi also stood up, his mouth crooked and his eyes slanted were very funny, but his temperament was very fierce.
"Zhang Er was stunned, what do you have to argue with Xu Dabiao? Dong Xiaoxuan is mine, do you think you two can have more money than me? ”
In a large box next to Li Yueya's seat, a man with a calm and tall height walked out.
When he spoke, he was also very imposing, and he looked like he was not an ordinary big family.
"It's actually the eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Yuanbo."
"I didn't expect to be able to see Qin Yuanbo's demeanor today, I didn't come in vain!"
"The small land of fireworks and willows, I didn't expect such a talented person to come."
……
For a while, everyone around them was talking about Qin Yuanbo, all of which were compliments.
"Qin Yuanbo, this name is good, it seems that the Qin family is a big family!"
Li Yue didn't think about it before he spoke, but as soon as his voice fell, Yue'er on the side was a little puzzled.
"Big brother, the Qin family is one of the three major families in Huainan along with the Li family, and their family also has a military background."
While Yue'er reminded her, Li Yue only smiled awkwardly, and immediately recalled the memories of this body's previous life.
In his memory, he found the Qin family, a family that mainly sold weapons, and had close contacts with the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.
"Engaging in arms, interesting, it seems that the Qin family is a big family!"
Li Yue smiled very sinisterly, and as soon as his voice fell, he looked up at Qin Yuanbo on the side.
"I'll pay five hundred taels to spend a good night with Miss Dong, I wonder if anyone will object?"
Qin Yuanbo stood on the viewing platform on the second floor, looking at the people below, and as soon as his voice fell, no one dared to come forward to talk.
"Miss Dong is so national, you will pay five hundred taels, it is simply an insult to the word beauty."
A frivolous teenager strode to the round platform on the first floor, and reached out to touch Dong Xiaoxuan's face very frivolously.
"Zhao Huan, I think you want to die!"
Qin Yuanbo originally had a calm expression, but Zhao Huan's appearance made him a little uncontrollable, his face was immediately relaxed, and he looked over resentfully.
"Recently, I heard that the Qin family purchased a batch of fine iron to make firearms, and it doesn't seem to have much silver in your pocket, right? Just those five hundred taels came out and pretended, it was really poor. ”
Zhao Huan smiled coldly, and casually scattered a bag of gold ingots in his arms to the ground.
"Zhao Huan, don't be too arrogant, even if your Zhao family has the care of the King of Chu behind you, our Qin family doesn't care."
Qin Yuanbo turned over and jumped directly from the second floor to the first floor, which made Li Yue really surprised.
"Wow, this kung fu is very good, it seems that the ancient people were good."
Li Yue couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and at the same time, Zhao Huan sneered and looked at Qin Yuanbo who was staring at him.
"There are five hundred taels of gold ingots on this earth, and if you can produce silver ingots of equal value, I will leave now, and I will retreat when I see you in the future."
Zhao Huan was obviously wealthy, and he didn't care about Qin Yuanbo's murderous eyes at all.
"Two thousand five hundred taels of silver is not much, but I didn't bring it today, yes! Zhao Huan, I didn't expect your kid to have this today, wait, you look good. ”
Qin Yuanbo threw his sleeves away, with murderous hatred on his face.
