Chapter Thirty-Four: It's Coming
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang heard that this Oiran was unparalleled in beauty before, and she was still young, and she was proud that her beauty had not yet been able to enter her eyes, so she was still innocent.
Although Deng Tong coveted the Oiran girl, he also knew his strength, and it was impossible to get close to others, so he widened his eyes at this time, looked at the girl who spoke just now, and asked in surprise.
"Oiran girl, is it really so beautiful?"
All the girls in the private room laughed when they heard this question, and one of them replied: "It is said that it is better to see than to hear, and you may have heard in the community how beautiful this Oiran lady is, but I can tell you for sure that our Oiran girl is a hundred times more beautiful than the legendary one, whether it is a man or a woman, the soul of seeing her will be lost." ”
Xia Dezhang took a bite of the appetizer and asked casually: "It is rumored that the Oiran girl has not served the benefactor so far, and she is still innocent, I don't know if this rumor is true or false?" ”
"Absolutely." A girl laughed.
Hearing this, all the officials and Deng Tong all thought about it, and even the girl next to them was snubbed, and the dirty thoughts in it, needless to say, only Zhou Zhou Ming was still drinking a little wine by himself, and the curiosity about the Oiran girl in his heart was stronger.
When the girls saw that these stinky men were all out of the sky, they ignored them and turned a deaf ear, and they all said angrily: "You stinky men, just eat from the bowl and look at the pot, there is no good thing." ”
Only then did everyone react, and hurriedly laughed and coaxed the girl next to them, while making amends.
Seeing everyone's dead look, a girl sneered and said: "You people, it's in vain to think about it, not to mention how high our Oiran girl's vision is, mortals can't get into it, even if you take the shit luck and get into the eyes of my Oiran girl, just that benefactor's fee, it costs three thousand taels of silver, can you take it?" ”
Hearing the amount of three thousand taels of silver, the officials widened their eyes on the spot, unable to believe their ears.
Find an ordinary girl with a lot of flowers, serve yourself for a night, and spend ten taels of silver is enough, is this Oiran girl inlaid with gold? Even if she is as beautiful as a fairy, the asking price of three thousand taels is too much, right?
Everyone instantly put away their cranky thoughts and began to treat the girls around them wholeheartedly.
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang looked at Zhou Ming with eyes full of resentment.
It's all to blame on this kid, if he hadn't taken the bounty of the two of us and lost it, the two of us would have each found an Oiran girl and enjoyed the treatment of the emperor.
Zhou Ming Yuguang saw the expressions of the two people, and deliberately looked away, but he didn't see it.
After the time of a stick of incense had passed, the servants had almost drunk the wine, and they were ready to take their girls upstairs to rest.
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang also had this plan, before the two of them left, they looked at Zhou Ming and said with bad intentions: "Brother Zhou, why bother with yourself so much, you are here, why don't I let the brothers find you a top girl, although it can't be compared with Oiran, but it is also the ultimate enjoyment." ”
"The two brothers just go and be chic by themselves, and leave me alone. I finished my drink and went back. ”
After speaking, Zhou Zhou Ming poured himself another glass of wine.
Just as everyone was about to leave, the door of the private room was opened, and a teenage teapot walked in, smiling, and said to the girls: "Girls, the Oiran girl has begun to choose benefactors, do you want to go and see the excitement, and guess if anyone is chosen today." ”
"Don't look at it, the Oiran lady has such a high vision, and no one will be chosen tonight."
"Our boss is also broad-hearted, Hua Manlou spent so much money on the Oiran lady, and she is so willful."
The officials and Deng Tong originally wanted to go to see the excitement and see how beautiful the Oiran girl was, but when they thought of it, they could only look at it but not eat it, and the Oiran girl did not meet their own consumption level, so they immediately dispelled this idea and prepared to take the girl next to them upstairs.
The little teapot came in with great interest and brought the news to everyone, thinking that it would be taken seriously, but it turned out to be gray, so he turned around and planned to leave in a gray manner.
"Wait a minute," Zhou Ming suddenly stopped him, "Are there any conditions for participating in the Oiran girl's selection of benefactors?" ”
All the officials were stunned, did Zhou Zhutou really want to run for the benefactor? That's too much to do, right?
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang saw Zhou Ming's performance, their feelings were very complicated, on the one hand, they didn't want him to run for the benefactor, because after all, he was a person from the Chengnan Inspection Yamen, if he went, he couldn't be selected, it would make people laugh, and after it was spread, people would not only laugh at Zhou Ming, but also become a laughing stock together with the Chengnan Inspection Yamen.
Even if he was lucky enough to be selected and become the benefactor of the Oiran girl, would he be able to afford the favorite? Now don't talk about three thousand taels of silver, after supper, I'm afraid this kid won't even be able to take out thirty taels, and if he can't come up with the money at that time, he will also become a laughing stock.
Regardless of whether this matter is successful or not, it will not be beneficial to Zhou Ming and the Chengnan Inspection Yamen, if this matter is put on other people, the two of them will definitely stop it as soon as possible, but Zhou Zhou Ming is not an ordinary person after all.
This kid didn't cheat the two of them before, and the two of them had been looking for an opportunity to teach Zhou Ming a lesson and let him understand the importance of respecting his superiors, but the difference between the two of them and his strength was too great for him to take advantage of.
Therefore, both of them plan to let Zhou Zhou Ming suffer a little, which can make him understand a little bit of human sophistication, and be an errand in the yamen in the future, not so arrogant.
Although he thought so in his heart, he still had to say what the two of them should say, otherwise if Zhou Ming blamed the two of them for not stopping him afterwards, the two of them would not be able to eat and leave.
"Go, you go upstairs and wait for me first." Deng Tong sent the girl beside him away and walked to Zhou Ming's side, "Brother Zhou, you have to think clearly, this Oiran girl is not an idle character, after you go, even if you are selected, can you get the favorites?" ”
Xia Dezhang also came over, looked elsewhere, and said in a low voice: "Brother Zhou, this is not as good as other places, the boss of the Huamanlou also has a background, in other small places, let's eat and drink for nothing, people don't dare to say anything, here is not Xingbai or anything." ”
Seeing that Zhou Zhou Ming was silent, Deng Tong said the most important point: "Brother Zhou, don't think about letting us give you a cover, the two of us really have no money, brothers invite us to come here to consume, and the pockets are clean, don't beat their ideas." ”
When the officials saw the two superiors, they still thought of them at such a critical moment, and they were all grateful.
"Zhou Zhutou, if you want to play, we will pick a top card for you, don't get along with yourself."
"Oiran girl, it's not where our little errand goes."
All the officials opened their mouths to persuade.
The small teapot was interrupted by Deng Tong and them, and he had been standing cautiously beside him, not daring to answer Zhou Ming's question.
"Thank you for your concern about Zhou, everyone is here to have fun, hurry up and go chic, as for my affairs, I have a reason." Monday Ming laughed.
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang want this sentence, anyway, they have already said what they should say, and they have persuaded those who should be persuaded, if Zhou Zhou Ming has to make a fool of himself, it has nothing to do with them.
"This little brother, you haven't answered what I asked you." Zhou Ming looked at the small teapot and asked again.
The little teapot glanced at everyone, and said tremblingly: "There are no special conditions, as long as you look good, and pay another thirty taels of registration fees, you can participate in the selection of benefactors by the Oiran girl." ”
Zhou Ming breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he only needed the registration fee of thirty taels of silver, and if it was ten taels more, he wouldn't be able to pay it out.
He immediately handed the registration fee of thirty taels of silver to the small teapot: "Sign up for me, I want to participate in the selection of benefactors." ”
The little teapot took the silver and hurried away.
When all the officials saw this situation, they all sighed.
Thirty taels of silver, I can find three girls to accompany me, why can't Zhou Zhutou think about it so much?
All the girls in the private room were laughing at Zhou Ming in their hearts.
This little official, I don't know which poor sour yamen came out, he doesn't have much strength, and he dares to choose the benefactor of the Oiran, and he doesn't pee to take care of his own virtue.
Just as everyone was about to go upstairs to rest, there was a gong sound, and the small teapot that had just run out ran back again, pulled up Zhou Ming and left: "The guest officer hurry up, it's already chosen." ”
Zhou Ming didn't have time to say anything, so he hurriedly followed the small teapot and left.
Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang glanced at each other, and the two of them immediately had a ghost idea in their hearts, instead of taking the girl upstairs to rest, the two of them should take their brothers to watch Zhou Ming make a fool.
Wait a while, if Zhou Ming can't be elected as a benefactor, or if he can't pay the benefactor fee if he is selected, see what face he has to face everyone.
In front of the officials, if there is such a big ugliness, it is simply impossible for Zhou Ming to patrol the yamen in the south of the city in the future, even if he is strong.
At that time, Deng Tong will be able to keep his position as the number one leader in the inspection yamen.
"Brothers, do you want to see how majestic Zhou Zhutou is?" Deng Tong smiled maliciously.
Everyone immediately understood what he meant, and they were all eager to try: "Of course I think about it, the strength of our Zhou Tou Yongguan and the three armies will definitely be able to succeed and win the heart of the Oiran." ”
All the officials sent their girls upstairs to wait, and then they followed Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang to the flower hall where the benefactor was selected, waiting for Zhou Ming to see his jokes after hitting the south wall.
Zhou Ming followed the small teapot to the flower hall, the flower hall was already overcrowded, all kinds of people were ready, although there were a few handsome boys, but most of them had a pig's head and dog face, and a few of them were older, fat like pigs.
Zhou Ming knew in his heart that no matter what these people looked like, they were all either rich or expensive, and they had backgrounds and strengths that ordinary people could hardly imagine.
