Chapter 464: Daming Fenghua 6
"Everyone, please be calm." Seeing that the crowd was in a hurry, the old bustard was not in a hurry, and even showed a satisfied smile on his face, waved his hand and said, "The British Oiran girl looks at both money and your talents......
"That is, everyone present has a chance."
"Here's how it works."
"You can bid as much as you want, or show your talent in poetry and song."
"Whoever can impress the girl at last, the girl will nod her head and spend the night with him."
When people are paying money, Oiran will secretly peek at the person's bearing, and if she is impressed, she will nod her head slightly, and then the maid next to her will notify the person to enter her room.
It is said that men are the most attractive when they pay for it.
Of course, there are also some beautiful women who are not greedy for money and like young talents.
For example, Huang Tingjian and Liu Sanchang back then were because they wrote a good poem and won the blood of Oiran. Because of this, it was rumored to be a beautiful talk, and Liu Sanbian also lingered in the Qinglou all the year round and was raised by the girl.
Men are also very attractive when they are writing poems.
In addition, there is another point, most middle-aged wealthy businessmen are a little greasy, while talented people are not only much better looking, but also energetic.
As for whether to choose talent or wealth, it depends on Oiran's personal preferences.
Thinking of this, the crowd was beating drums in their hearts: they could roughly guess the personal preferences of the Oriental Oiran, and the preferences of the Western Oiran, they were completely confused.
"I'll give a hundred taels of silver, hoping to spend a good night with the girl!" At this time, there was already a rich boy who stood out of the crowd, waved his hand, and said with pride.
One hundred taels of silver is already a lot.
The fast food in Ying Tianfu City is at most one or two silver once, and it is also a high-end kind, and his bid is already a hundred times that of the ordinary.
Hearing that someone was willing to bid a hundred taels, the old bustard felt a burst of disdain in his heart: A hundred taels of silver can't even reach an ordinary Oiran, and you still want to get this rare British Oiran?
A hundred taels of silver, not even the cost.
However, there was still a professional smile on his face, so as not to embarrass him.
"Just a hundred taels of silver, dare to come out and be embarrassed!?" Sure enough, immediately a rich man stood up and said, "I'll bid a thousand taels." After speaking, he glanced at the rich boy with disdain, he would not be polite to him.
Speaking and doing things are extremely arrogant, showing the charm of a man.
"A thousand taels of silver is also a shame, okay?" Then, another thin boy stood up and said lightly, "I'll give 10,000 taels!" Whoever bids less than 10,000 taels of silver is an insult to Miss Kai,"
"Do you think that Miss Kai is not even worth 10,000 taels of silver?"
Being able to spend a night with an Oiran is not only a physical pleasure, but also an honor. In the entire circle, although there are many Western women, it is the first time that they have appeared as an oiran.
In other words, if they win this time, they will go out in the future and become the 'great gods' in the same way.
It is talked about by people, and it has to be looked at by people wherever it goes.
It's not just about enjoyment, it's also about 'face'.
"That's right, if you bid less than 10,000 taels just now, you will automatically roll it for me." The man beside the thin boy said coldly, "Because of your actions just now, you have left a bad impression on Miss Kai." ”
"Even, I lost the face of our Ming Dynasty!"
"My Ming Dynasty, the current people, can't even afford 10,000 taels of silver?"
"Shame on Britain."
A group of high-end rich people, Brother Gongzi has a look of superiority on his face. And those who can't afford to spend a lot of money, and don't dare to spend 10,000 taels of silver, are full of shame.
I'm afraid to compare everything.
They have money, but there are people who are richer than they are.
"Okay, okay, you're amazing, you're all rich." The wealthy merchant who bid 1,000 taels said embarrassedly when he heard this, "Now that the Ming Dynasty is indeed rich and powerful, after the opening of the sea, a large number of people can take out 10,000 taels of silver to enjoy themselves." ”
"I don't deserve to fight with you, can't I go?"
After saying that, he automatically stepped out of his seat and came behind the crowd.
"Miss Kai, I am willing to bid 20,000 taels of silver, hoping to get drunk with the girl tonight." Another boy stood up, bowed to Catherine very politely, and said.
Miss Kai?
Hearing the crowd mouthful of a Kai girl, Qin Yu wanted to laugh in his heart,
They didn't even understand people's surnames!
"I'll bid 50,000!" Then another local tyrant appeared, this local tyrant looked very young, no more than twenty years old, and his actions couldn't help but impress the crowd.
They began to speculate about the identity of this person.
is not the son of a big man, but the son of the boss of an overseas trading house.
Ying Tianfu is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, many people actually have a big background, if it is the son of those Huaixi nobles, then it will be a big trouble. Therefore, the crowd is here and more cautious.
Fifty thousand taels of silver is already a sky-high price.
For a time, there were fewer competitors, and a large number of insufficient assets were eliminated.
However, the British Oiran on the stage, Catherine still did not nod. Seeing this, the crowd looked at each other, could it be that 50,000 taels of silver was not enough to impress the heart of this Western Oiran?
Or, she has no idea at all about how much silver the Ming Dynasty has?
Or maybe she likes talents? Don't like money?
In fact, the crowd's guesses were wrong, she was a foreigner, she was not familiar with the Ming Dynasty, and she didn't learn the language well. What does she know about choosing people? The crowd had a guess that was also right, she had no clear concept of how much fifty thousand taels of silver was.
In other words, it is not she herself who is in charge this time, but the old bustard, a luxurious middle-aged woman.
Catherine, a foreigner, doesn't feel the charm of a Chinese man, and even her aesthetics are a little different. Huaxia people think that handsome and talented people are not necessarily in her eyes.
This time, it was the bustard who helped her make the decision.
However, the old bustard, when he saw that someone had paid a sky-high price of 50,000 taels of silver, he was still not tempted and did not make Catherine nod.
Because this time, she also took this opportunity to carry out a big publicity and build momentum for her chamber of commerce.
After all, now on the Qinhuai River, the river is full of flower boats, and their industry is very competitive.
"Since the Oiran girl didn't nod, then please start showing your talents." The old bustard said, "It seems that this British Oiran girl admires our Chinese culture very much, and this time she will pick a good talent who can write poetry." ”
"So this time, everyone present has a chance, including you talented people who have no money."
It seems that she wants to do this to attract talents, an important consumer group.
