While Lai San was looking for the boat, Chen Jing and Cui Ying didn't move much, and scanned the boat and the guests around together.

Cui Ying saw two lanterns hanging on the side of a boat, pointed and said, "Xiaojing, tell you something, so that you can gain a little more knowledge, have you seen the two lanterns on that boat?" ”

Chen Jing looked in the direction she was pointing and nodded.

The bored Cui Ying took out a pack of peanut kernels from the restaurant from her arms and chewed them boringly, and some passers-by hurried by with inquiring eyes after seeing the two of them.

"Actually, if you don't hang a lantern, you don't have a guest, and if you hang a lantern, you have a guest, but you will have to say it overnight, if you hang two lanterns, either you have a distinguished guest, or you have to spend the night, so that other people who see it are more interesting, don't bother abruptly."

"Is there any such thing as hanging three lanterns?" Chen Jing asked curiously.

"There shouldn't be more, if it's a big place with a lot of rules, there should be people guarding outside, most of the boats here, it's not strange to have these little cleverness, but it's easy enough to use it."

"Two sons, I've inquired about it, and the sound painting boat is idle at this time, waiting for the two sons to come." Lai San came back with a lantern and a small step.

Hearing Lai San say this, Cui Ying chewed on the peanut kernels in her mouth and said vaguely: "I've been going for a while, just one?" ”

Lai San hurriedly said, "Childe, it's not like this. If you search the entire Linyue Bay, there will definitely be a few more that can make Childe take a fancy to him.

But firstly, it is too laborious, and secondly, other families may already have a business, and it is unlikely to drive away the customers who are enjoying the game. Thirdly, the cost of the boats that can pick up passengers anytime and anywhere is really ......."

Chen Jing motioned to him: "Okay, we are clear, let's go to that boat." ”

Lai San nodded again and again: "Childe can say this, it seems that he is a person who can listen to persuasion, that's right, there's nothing wrong with being thrifty." Childe may not know the bend in this, the sound painting boat is actually the rudder of the Dragon and Phoenix Building, that is, the one over there, see it, it's a big ship. Lai San said, here stretched out his hand and instructed the two sons to look.

"It's just that it's not connected in a string like most of the boats here, after all, this suffocating boat on the shore is really small compared to those behemoths dragon boat painting boats.

Those big boats have their own rudder meaning, but then again, in fact, the money is still not enough, the right is still not hard enough, otherwise it will be the same as the largest boat in Linyue Bay, Huangyuelou, there is no rudder, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling on it, and the New Year is completed on it. ”

The rumored big dragon boat in Linyue Bay can only board the ship if you are either rich or noble, and the identity of the princes and rich ones is the identification, and the gold cave is no longer enough to say.

"We, the pedalers, have never had the opportunity to introduce guests to Huangyue Tower, after all, those nobles who have gilded hands and feet have servants, not to mention the nobles before and after, and they don't look down on us people who eat on the mud at all. I heard that more than ten years ago, there was an immortal family who came to Huangyue Tower, maybe it was because of this that Huangyue Tower was able to crush other boats. ”

Chen Jing frowned when he heard him say the immortal family, "Can an immortal come to this kind of place?"

Cui Ying said indifferently: "Hey, what's this, isn't it just to put gold on your face, so that you can sit on the ground and raise the price." ”

Lai San hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't you dare to say that." Linyuewan knows about this matter, it has been passed on for so many years, and no one has ever corrected it, so this is the case, and the two sons should not go around and say that someone has done this, and in the end it was not very good, and he was beaten. ”

Chen Jing was not very interested in these frivolous rumors, and urged him to lead the way.

When he got to the boatman, Lai San first chatted a few words with the boatman, and the boatman changed from a lazy demeanor to extremely flattering, but unfortunately his mouth was not as good as Lai San, and his expression seemed a little restrained, and he tried to open his mouth a few times but still couldn't make a sound, and finally restrained his hands and motioned for the two distinguished guests to get on the boat.

Cui Ying looked at the boatman's naïve appearance and wanted to laugh, but when she saw Xiaojing glaring at her, she had to laugh twice and let him go.

Seeing the lantern in Lai San's hand, he felt a little strange, so he begged for it, picked up the pole and picked up the circle like a child, and was scolded by Chen Jing before he became honest.

The three of them got on the boat, and without waiting for Cui Ying to give money, Lai San stopped her, "Childe is kind to us, but the local rules, as long as Childe can really patronize Huyinlou, the cost of this ferry needs to be paid by Huyinlou, and this is the money that these boatmen eat, don't worry about giving less, the better the value of the boat you go, the more you give."

Today of this old dog's day is a good thing to meet good people, usually there are a few or even a dozen copper plates at a time, and this time there should be money for drinking. ”

When the boatman heard Lai San's words of praise and scolding, he laughed a few times, obviously agreeing with his words.

The ferry slowly swung towards the middle of the river, and in the middle of the river, it was almost the same as the giant boat, except that one was bigger and the other was bigger. Many of the hulls are modeled after attics, and the hull is almost indistinguishable from the land, and the customs above the roof are very ...... is not honest, one by one flying arches and steep eaves are a bit excessive, but Xin Hao still kept the last rules and did not put aside the beast's head to squat.

There is a bow and stern each with a relief of a dragon and a phoenix, and the dragon body and phoenix tail are coiled separately, which should be the dragon and phoenix building that Lai San said. There is also a giant boat that can be distinguished by the naked eye, a large section higher than the other boats, at least five or six floors, with a huge bright light on the top of the ship, it looks like a bright moon falling on the top of the ship from a distance, needless to say, this should be the Huangyue Tower.

Although Chu Qiuguo is a small country, Linyue Bay is a veritable gold-absorbing beast, and the local garrison will definitely turn a blind eye to some small problems that are not too out of line, and there is no need for local Zhiming to say, and at a cursory glance, you can probably guess that these things are nothing more than human affection, etiquette, and law back and forth.

After swimming out for more than ten feet, I could vaguely discern some of the sounds of the boat, and I could hear the unbridled laughter of a certain high-roller, accompanied by the light laughter of a group of women.

A certain scribe and literati chanted poetry loudly, winning the applause of the audience. In the end, what attracted him was the sound of singing and dancing from a certain boat, listening to the sound was not a lingering obscene sound, from the sonorous and powerful tone, Chen Jing guessed that this was a triumphant song belonging to the military formation, and the guest should be a military person.

After a little further travel, the ferry slowly approached a boat in front of it, not the smallest in terms of size, and it looked much smaller against the backdrop of the behemoths all around, but it made people look at it twice, and that's it.

The only eye-catching thing is that there are a lot of side windows on this ship, almost one after the other, all of them are open, and the inner room of the ship is brightly lit, and the bright light is transmitted from the window, and there is a faint treasure ship from a distance.

When they got closer, they still couldn't hear any sound, it was very quiet, Chen Jing and Cui Ying wanted to eat alone, but this situation inevitably made people misunderstand that the name of the building was not true.

Cui Ying also had a hunch that it was probably the boat, but according to her temperament, she was a little dissatisfied after comparing it with other boats, "Such a small one, bring us here?" ”

Lai San was speechless by her question, and didn't know how to answer.

Chen Jing asked her not to mess around, and she was not afraid to poke her old bottom, "Do you think you are in your hometown?" You don't have to pay to go to the best brothel, just come out and see it, don't be disgusted with this. ”

Cui Ying touched the money bag in her arms and sighed: "Alas, everything is good at home, but there is no freshness, otherwise I would not be willing to pay for it." ”

Chen Jing sneered: "Those in Zhao'an City are all engaged in the leather and meat business, and they are only engaged in the leather and meat business, believe it or not, most of them don't understand if you pay to watch singing and dancing." ”

Cui Ying blinked her eyes and said curiously: "Yanqu'er 'Eighteen Touches', haven't you heard of it?" ”

Chen Jing was pushed by her, took a deep breath, and decided not to say anything similar to her in the future.

The boatman carefully leaned the boat to the bow of the building, because it was in the middle of the river, not on the bank of the river with a deep draft, and there was a wooden staircase that clinged to the hull of the boat.

Stepping on the wooden ladder and boarding the hull deck together, a rough glance at the hull is less than two zhang wide, if it is long, it should be six or seven zhang when you come, maybe it is a big ship elsewhere, but here it is so aggrieved that it is reduced to a rudder.

Looking inside from the deck, near the bow of the ship is a large room, used as a welcome guest, there are a few tables and chairs inside, I can't understand how those are exquisite, in addition to the characteristic rouge, there is also a faint incense, the back compartment is not clear, there is a screen to cover.

It is a boat specially used for singing and dancing skills, and it is more quiet and elegant than a luxurious house.

Lai San asked the two sons to wait for a while, and he went inside to call the head of the house to come out to pick up the guests.

Since it was spent on money, Chen Jing was not polite and asked him to connect.

"Hua Niang, Hua Niang, I'm out, I'm here to bring you a guest today." Lai San entered inside, did not dare to cross the screen, stood behind and shouted softly.

"Come on, come on, what's the wind that ...... you today"

After the visitor crossed the screen, he paused, and immediately changed his tone, "Lai San!" My word is right. It's a long time, you didn't pull guests for us in the sound building, did you pick it up today? ”

Hua Niang is wearing a translucent full-breasted skirt today, setting off her delicate figure more and more enchanting, with a thick green silk coil on the top of her head without any mess, elegant makeup with red lip grease, and gently shaking the fan painted in the lotus pond.

In their business, everyone's makeup is basically changing, especially when they first entered the industry, in order to solicit customers and retain customers, they tried all kinds of means to greet their bodies, and in Linyue Bay, they used it to the extreme, and the means of self-harm and self-destruction were used.

For example, some boat-going bustards dressed as female bachelors, will simply chant poems against them, specifically targeting those literati and ink writers, and for outsiders who have just arrived here, this unreasonable trick is almost a total killing.

There are even those who deliberately pretend to be men, and there is no disadvantage in picking up customers at the men's style hall.

What's more, there are sloppy messes who don't care about makeup, and it is also very lethal for those who like to hunt for curiosity.

As for herself, after all these years, she thought that she had long looked down on temperament or something, but she could be asked to do something that she felt out of place elsewhere, but she still couldn't pull down her face, and finally fell into the cold palace, and came to this Huyin Lou boat to be a group of Kabuki geisha housekeeper mother, which is not good, more than the upper than the bottom, and content.

Lai San bent down and rubbed his big hands, and whispered, "The two sons are outside." Hua Niang, this time it's really a distinguished guest, the kind that wants to eat alone. ”

Hua Niang looked at Lai San for a moment, and after coming back to her senses, she didn't care about Lai San's messy robe, grabbed it, and asked hurriedly, "Really?" Since you brought it here, it must be the first time to come to our Linyue Bay, otherwise it will not be your turn to introduce. What is the identity of the person who came this time, let me explain it in detail, and I will be able to deal with it more appropriately later. ”

Lai San looked at Hua Niang grabbing her jade hand, and she had goosebumps all over her body, mother, such a good-looking woman dared to touch herself, and made up her mind that she would not take a bath for half a month after going back.

Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Lai San shook his smiling skin and said, "What identity?" I don't know, rich people are. ”

After speaking, he took out the broken silver and shook it at the flower girl, "Didn't you see it, so you hired me, and gave me a reward, this must be that the guest didn't run away." ”

Seeing him laugh so happily, Hua Niang rolled her eyes, she hadn't seen a few rotten people with a lot of money, and the cost of getting on the boat was more than a thousand times, but this rotten man was right about one thing, the money he was willing to give to these rotten people, the money for the girls must be indispensable, as for giving more and less, it depends on their respective means.

"We are all girls here who sell their arts but not their bodies, have you made it clear to your guests?"

Hua Niang doesn't plan to make any mistakes, it's a joke to sell her art in Linyue Bay, how many lovers just came to Linyue Bay, swore to the sky to keep their bodies like jade, but in front of gold, silver and powerful people can hold on for two or three years.

A colleague who is also a bustard mother summed it up in one sentence, "As long as the money is in place, nothing matters." ”

"I know, I know, that boy only plans to watch singing and dancing, listen to a song or something, and have no other ideas."

"In this case, I will meet two distinguished guests, as long as the money is paid, the Huyin Building will close the elevator tonight, and thank the guests for the two guest officers."

"Childe, childe, the flower girl is out." Lai San said happily.

"Hua Niang has seen two sons." The flower girl with a low jaw and low eyebrows gave a charming blessing.

Cui Ying stroked her hair, strode forward in high spirits, grabbed Hua Niang's hand with her own familiarity, and with the knowledge of Zhao'an City, she felt that she could eat the world.

Immediately began to shush the cold and ask for warmth.

"Hua Niang, right, I've heard for a long time that there is a beauty like his name in this Huyin Building, and when I see it today, it really makes me fall in love at first sight, goodbye, and want to hurt me."

When Hua Niang was grabbed by this tall man she had never met, she was a little abrupt but not surprised that she had seen many storms.

The people who come to see the singer geisha are not all really elegant people, but more people who pretend to be elegant, these people are more upright than the righteous gentleman on the outside, and she can't stand the dirt and filth on the inside, but the surface work is quite sufficient, as long as the money is in place, let them handle it.

But this "son" is clearly a girl.

Hua Niang glared at Lai San viciously, before he came out, he didn't say that there was such a person on the boat, dressed up in men's clothes for some trivial things, the ladies of wealthy families have more or less this kind of rebellious behavior, and it is not inappropriate to come to Fengyue place, Huyin Building is a place for these big families to have fun, but a woman dressed as a man, speaking obscene "son" came here, a little tired and tired.

Without a trace, he withdrew his hand and forced a smile, Hua Niang said: "It's not the right time for the son to come, the guy on the boat today is really damned, the dinner at night is really not clean, half of the girls have eaten bad stomachs, and the other half is already weak, no matter what, they can't get together a team of dance shows." It's really a shame that I can't go, Hua Niang is here to apologize to the two sons. ”

After saying that, she gave a squat Wanfu, and she was short, so she didn't forget to threaten that Lai San with her eyes before giving a salute.

Of course, Lai San knows the meaning of the woman's eyes, and he is so aggrieved at the moment, on the one hand, he is the owner of the money, and on the other hand, he is the landlord's wife who is well-known in the local area, and no one can afford to provoke him, so he simply stays on the spot without making a sound, pretending to be stupid.

Chen Jing heard Hua Niang say this, and planned to greet Cui Ying to go home, since it is not good to go out today, it is not impossible to go shopping elsewhere, and it is not impossible to eat alone and change the taste.

Cui Ying raised her hand and motioned him to wait for a while, helped Hua Niang with both hands, and said with emotion: "I just came here, and I heard such bad news, and the sky does not fulfill people's wishes." If you go back without entering, it will be too unbeautiful, and you will be in a hurry today, and you will not prepare a meeting gift. ”

Speaking of this, Cui Ying magnificently took out a handful of gold and silver jewelry from her arms, stuffed it into the hand of the flower girl, and said attentively: "It should be regarded as a meeting gift and a visit ceremony for my sisters." ”

With a wave of his hand, he was arrogant, "It's not a respect!" ”

Chen Jing was speechless, just looking at the obsessive face of the flower girl staring at the property, he could guess that the sick girls inside must be well without warning, or they can survive the appearance if they are sick.

It's not that he doesn't know that this bustard mother may be lying to the two of them casually talking nonsense, it's just that he doesn't want others to manipulate him, and he can't afford to fight wits and courage with the people in Fengyue Place.

Thanks to Cui Niu, a master who thinks she is fighting in the land of wind and moon, in her knowledge, the easiest and most direct way to embarrass people and the solution to being tricked by others is nothing more than smashing it with money, if it is useless, it is not enough money to smash, not ruthless enough.

Hua Niang is worthy of being a bustard, and she quickly woke up from the hallucination of property, and she didn't shy away from the few people present, she stuffed it directly into the corset, and dragged Cui Ying's arm with both hands to drag it inside, making a little daughter, "Oh, why is the son still outside, come in, haven't you seen the slave family divided for so long, that son came in together." ”

Knowing the current affairs, willing to face, in order to make more money, to put it more transparently, catch the fat pig to slaughter.

God knows if it will come next time.

Cui Ying laughed in her heart, this girl is so strong, like a widow who catches a wild man.

Then he put on a straight face and said seriously: "This is not good, just send a gift to my sisters, disturb my sisters' recuperation, I will not forgive their sins." ”

Hua Niang's face was also open, and she was single, "Don't worry, as long as they are not dead, they will all get up and work for me, and they are all hypocritical, not big or small, and they owe it to pick up." ”
