Chapter 213: The mysterious man in the Qinglou charter
The flower world of Nandu is really desirable!
However, Wang Li's "passing through the door without entering" made Song Zhe depressed for several days!
The fleet traveled to the waters of Jiujiang, and after receiving an urgent letter, Song Zhe was overjoyed!
After reading the letter, Wang Li frowned!
For seven or eight days in a row, Tianyin Pavilion has been "full of birds" every day?
According to Chen Anjun, is Cao Huachun behind the back?
After thinking about it for a while, through some necessary means, Cao Huachun does have such energy!
But why did he do this?
Who is the mysterious person in the private room of "Chunxiangju"?
Why did you just get rid of Zhu Yousong and Zhu Youlang, and this person will arrive immediately?
Why did Tianyin Pavilion's business plummet as soon as this person arrived?
Even Wei Zhongxian is hiding it, it's really weird!
After thinking about it, all the bigwigs in Nandu and Jingshi were basically excluded!
As soon as he thought of Zhu Youzhen, Wang immediately denied it!
As the king of a country, quietly, occasionally take a stroll around the Qinglou, no harm!
However, it was impossible for him to be in the private room of Tianyin Pavilion for half a year!
Not to mention anything else, just half a year's expenses for a private room, he Zhu Youzhen can't afford it!
One thing is for sure, this man is coming for himself!
Since the other party "salutes first and then soldiers", let's go and meet him for a while!
Otherwise, he won't leave easily!
Of course, no matter who he is, no matter what his purpose is, Tianyin Pavilion's losses during this period of time must be compensated!
If you dare not to pay, throw me into the Qinhuai River!
"Turn the bow of the ship and go back to Nandu!
In the meantime, find out who the person is as soon as possible! β
"Big boss, don't believe it, that mysterious person, it's really possible that it's Long Live Lord!"
"No, not quite like him!"
Wang Li shook his head: "How can a person with such a good face live in the Qinglou?" I paid a one-time fee for a private room for half a year, how much does it cost?
He's so poor that he can afford it? β
"This ...... In the private room of Tianyin Pavilion for half a year, as long as you don't order the songs of Liu Ru is and Kou Baimen, it will be 500,000! β
"Damn!"
Wang Li glanced at Song Zhe and didn't bother to talk to him again.
This guy has a net worth of more than 20 million, and he has enough confidence to speak!
"It's only 500,000", I'll go, I won't have a backache when I stand and talk!
Since the founding of Zhu Yuanzhang, as long as the imperial court's taxes are abundant, the silver allocated by the household department to the emperor every year is generally between 800,000 and 1 million!
For ordinary people, officials, and even vassal kings, this amount of money is really a lot!
Like Ming Xiaozong Zhu Youjiao, an emperor with only one wife, this silver can be used for a hundred and ten years!
For an emperor like Zhu Youzhen, who asked the queen's concubines to embroider their purses and sell them, this silver was used for a longer time - of course, provided that there were no other expenses outside the court, and there were no officials at all levels eyeing them!
The private rooms of Tianyin Pavilion, each room, the starting price per day is three thousand taels!
Guests staying in a private room are equivalent to 2,000 taels of free admission - no longer have to queue up to enter, and can enjoy the concentrated performance of singing and dancing prostitutes on the second floor!
Each private room has free good wine and food, and free prostitutes to help the fun; There is also a chance to "order songs" for free during the daily intensive performances!
For a rich boy who spends a lot of money, this amount of money is nothing!
However, if you want a famous prostitute like Liu Ruis, Kou Baimen or Gu Hengbo to accompany the wine in the private room, talk about poetry, calligraphy and painting, or perform alone, it will start at least 50,000 taels!
Because of the close relationship between Wang Li and Wei Zhongxian, Liu Rushi and Gu Hengbo often went to Tianxian Pavilion and Xianyin Pavilion to "run";
At the same time, Kou Baimen often went to Tianyin Pavilion to "run";
As long as there are no guests on your side, you are almost on call!
Therefore, as long as you don't name prostitutes and only enjoy a fixed free service, the basic cost of chartering a venue for half a year is 540,000 taels!
Zhu Youzhen must be reluctant to accept this silver!
Moreover, he can't take it out!
Therefore, Wang Li basically concluded that the mysterious person who had been in the private room of "Chunxiangju" for half a year should not be Zhu Youzhen!
β¦β¦
This guy is indeed very mysterious!
Chartered for more than ten days, never out of the door!
Free prostitutes to cheer up, all of them were rejected by him!
Food, wine and meat can only be delivered to the door, and his servants bring them into the room!
Even if Liu Ru is singing downstairs, the door of "Chunxiangju" is still closed!
Zhao Qian and Chen Anjun thought of countless ways, but they couldn't get into the "Chunxiangju"!
If you want to make a portrait of this person, it will become difficult to climb to the sky!
However, the reason for Tianyin Pavilion's "door can be crowded" was quickly found - the whole Jiangnan was rumored: Wang Li had resigned from the post of "Admiral of the West Factory", and was suspected of rebellion!
Under this kind of rumor, even if the brain-dead fans of the past had nine heads, they would not dare to step into Tianyin Pavilion!
Doesn't matter!
If you want to listen to Liu Ru singing, and if you want to discuss calligraphy and painting with Gu Hengbo, you can also go to Tianxian Pavilion or Xianyin Pavilion!
In this way, Wei Zhongxian was so happy that he couldn't keep his mouth shut!
After returning to Nandu, Wang Li did not immediately return to Tianyin Pavilion, but went to Tianxian Pavilion!
Wei Zhongxian is naturally greeted with good wine and good food.
"If it weren't for Cao Huachun being a hindrance, then it would be a ghost!"
Wang Li scolded indignantly, but Wei Zhongxian didn't care, and even triumphant: "Princess, you have earned so much silver, you should rest for a while!"
There are hundreds of goulans on both sides of the Qinhuai River, you can't kill them all, you have to leave food for others! β
"Grandpa Wei, this is your mistake!
I have just resigned, and the command posts in various places are being adjusted, and it is inevitable that there will be mistakes in intelligence;
However, your East Factory has not been affected, has it?
You really can't find out the person who is messing with me behind my back?
If you really played me to death, your Xianyin Pavilion and Tianxian Pavilion won't live long, right? β
"Ouch, look at what you said!"
Wei Zhongxian's face was full of innocence, and he spread his hands: "Who lives in the "Chunxiang Residence" of your Tianyin Pavilion, have you found it?"
Scold!
You can't find out what happened in your own family, and you can still count on me? β
Depend on!
Wei Zhongxian's prevarication and sophistry made Wang Li unable to refute!
It's just weird, on the day this person entered Tianyin Pavilion, his outfit was really ordinary!
It's exactly like an ordinary family child, no one deliberately pays attention to him!
That's it, since Wei Zhongxian doesn't want to help, then do it yourself, it's not a big deal!
It is imperative to find out the identity of the mysterious person in "Chunxiangju" first!
It's just that Qinglou has the rules of Qinglou, which can't be broken!
β¦β¦
"Chunxiangju" is located at the corner due north, and you can see the Qinhuai River when you open the window.
However, the windows were never opened!
Several "telescopes" on the opposite side waited for half a month and found nothing!
The interior of the private room is a suite, except for two windows, and only one wooden door can be entered!
Song Zhe and Song Yi all shook their headsβit was easy to break in; If you want to enter quietly, it is impossible!
Then, use sweat medicine!
"No way!" Zhao Qian's face changed greatly, and she hurriedly stopped: "That person is very careful, the wine and meat will definitely be tasted by the servants first, and the sweat medicine must not be used!"
If it spreads, Tianyin Pavilion will no longer be able to gain a foothold in the Qinhuai River! β
"This ...... If sweat medicine doesn't work, then add some catharsis to the wine and rice, it's all fine, right? β
"I've already tried!" Zhao Qian shook her head helplessly: "They dragged for three days and three nights in a row, but they refused to allow the doctor to enter, and just let the servants go out to grab medicine!" β
"Then ...... If you don't do it, you will kill them all and throw them into the Qinhuai River at night!
In this way, it should be unaware, right? β
"Factory, why did you come up with some bad ideas?" Zhao Qian couldn't cry or laugh, and persuaded patiently: "Our Tianyin Pavilion is doing a legal business, not a black shop!"
If it spreads, who would dare to enter Tianyin Pavilion? β
Alas!
This doesn't work, that doesn't work, Wang Li is also out of line!
Suddenly, I remembered a detail: every time I delivered wine and food to the door, the domestic servants who came out to greet him were all covered with face towels!
That's a little weird!
Men in this era, regardless of age, whether they are married or not, entering and leaving the Qinglou are reasonable and legal, and they are not "unsightly"!
That person is so cautious and secretive, could it be that he is a wanted criminal in the imperial court?
Or is it someone you know?
"Whether it's an acquaintance or not, I can't judge it for the time being! However, it should not be a wanted criminal! β
Zhao Qian denied it, and then explained: "I have asked Gonggong Wei to check, that person is a tribute from the north of Fujian, named Qian Jiashan, and he showed the palace examination certificate issued by the imperial court!"
The voucher he showed was indeed genuine!
But I always feel that the true identity of "Qian Jiashan" is questionable!
This matter, Father-in-law Wei is still investigating, I don't know when there will be a result! β
I'll go!
It's Wei Zhongxian again!
Since stepping down as the "Governor of the West Factory", his attitude towards himself is very ambiguous!
He won't do the thing of stabbing in the back for the time being!
However, it is his specialty to quietly come to the yin!
So, what he said, even punctuation can't be believed!
Depend on!
In this day and age, there is no punctuation!
Alas!
If you still have the identity of "Admiral of Xichang", it is not a matter of minutes to check the Gongsheng "Qian Jiashan" in Fujian?
Cao Huachun, Cao Huachun, when you arrived in Nandu, why didn't you come to persuade me?
As soon as you open your mouth, I'll be back in office right away!
By the way, after Cao Huachun arrived in Nandu, he never showed up again!
The mysterious guy hiding upstairs, could it be him?
"Probably not!
At this time, the prince is just a commoner, so it's normal not to see Cao Huachun, right?
Besides, he was ordered to go to the southern capital to do business, and he came and went in a hurry, and Wei Zhongxian may not have seen him! β
Zhao Qian's words are very reasonable, but Wang Li still feels that this matter must be related to Cao Huachun!
Since the Qinglou has the rules of the Qinglou, there are always some "irresistible" accidents, right?
Hey!
I don't believe it, you can live in it for the rest of your life!
Whoever goes, go and set a fire next door to "Chunxiangju"!
I don't believe it, I can't force him out!
"Princess, you're not mistaken, right? Really going to set fires?
If the government investigates, arson is a big crime!
We don't have the identity of the West Factory, so we should be careful......"
"Oh, how do you have a brain?
On this cold day, it's normal to burn charcoal in the house for heating!
It's normal to accidentally start a fire......"
"But...... It's July, and it's such a hot day in Nandu, who will burn charcoal in the house to keep warm? β
"Damn! The guest next door suffers from a cold and burns a charcoal fire to keep warm, isn't it? If you want to put it, you can put it! β
Wang Li's attitude was resolute, and Song Zhe no longer hesitated, so he had to do it!
Soon, the smoke of the "Yaxiangju" next door to "Chunxiangju" was billowing out, choking people who couldn't open their eyes!
In the panicked shouts and firefighting, "Chunxiangju" really opened the door!
Five or six men dressed in gray robes and scholars, but covered with face scarves, rushed out!
Hey?
The backs of those people are so familiar!
As he passed by the hallway, one of them suddenly fell!
The screams of astonishment sounded so familiar!
Like, this person is Wang Chengen?
I'll go! It's really like Wang Chengen!
The more you look at it, the more it looks!
Wang Li was overjoyed and strode forward
