Chapter 18 Picking up flowers and water buildings

"Since you know that it is your surname, you dog slave still dare to inquire blindly?" Glancing back at Li Fu, seeing that he didn't mean to speak, Fan Yong first raised his hand and slapped the back of the little guy's neck, and scolded: "Hurry up and get three ferry tickets for the master, where did you come from so much nonsense!" ”

Don't look at Fan Yongxian's big grin in front of Li Fu, he looks stupid, but after all, his identity is the little marquis of the Zhongwu Marquis Mansion, and his temper is not small.

"Yes, yes, don't be angry, childe, it's the villain who is too talkative." The little guy bowed down again and again, and then took out three bronze medals from his waist neatly, presented them to Fan Yongxian with both hands, and said with a smile: "Son, three tickets, one hundred and fifty gold." ”

"What? One hundred and fifty gold! ”

Hearing this price, Fan Yong first stretched out his hand and grabbed the collar of the little guy, lifted him up in front of him, and glared: "You cheap slave, but you have seen that the master is here for the first time, and you want to coax us?" Think of Ben Shao as a big wrongdoer from out of town, right? Although Ben Shao doesn't come to play often, I have also heard people say that the ticket for your flower water building is only ten gold, but you are bold, and you dare to ask us for five times the price? But I'm tired of it! ”

"Ouch! This man, you really misunderstood the villain! Seeing that Fan Yong was about to fight first, the little guy was afraid that he would be beaten if he explained late, so he hurriedly said: "On a normal day, the ticket for us to pick up Huashuilou is indeed only ten gold, but today is unusual!" Today, it is the day when the girl Xuanxuan of our flower water building is out of the pavilion! As long as the guests on the boat can participate in the exam questions set by Miss Xuanxuan, and have the opportunity to let Miss Xuanxuan promise herself! That's a good thing! Three sons, do you say that the fifty gold ticket is worth it? ”

The little guys who can be responsible for the reception in this kind of fireworks and willow alley are all human spirits. At a glance, he recognized who among the three was the guard, who was the younger brother, and who was the backbone.

So although he was explaining to Fan Yongxian, his attention was always on Li Fu.

They spoke well, even if they saw that He Peijian was an entourage guard, they said that they were three sons, but they did not say two sons.

Around the big guys, even a dog's life is worth more than them, and they must not be neglected, otherwise even if they are bitten to death, no one will cry out for them.

These are the lessons of blood, always reminding them to walk on thin ice and be cautious in their words and deeds.

"Humph!" Seeing that the little guy was not blackmailing himself, but that he had misunderstood the other party, Fan Yongxian didn't mean to apologize, and after snorting coldly, he waved his hand and threw it to the ground, and then took out a stack of golden tickets from his arms, counted out the amount of one hundred and fifty and threw it on the little guy.

Being so humiliated, the little guy was not angry, and quickly collected the money and got up from the ground, and smiled and presented the ticket with both hands.

With the ticket in hand, the three of them boarded the ferry boat under the congratulations of the little guy.

The captain was a dark-skinned and thin old man, and after seeing the tickets hanging from the waists of the three people, he said hello, and then drove the ferry boat through the boats and boats, and sailed towards the location of the flower and water building in the center of the lake.

The Flower Water Building is the most prestigious green building in Yandi City, and the Oiran of Shihua Water Building is naturally the top Qing Qi people in Yandi City.

Every three years, the flower water building will hold an Oiran competition, can participate in the Qing people, the appearance of the fairy can only be regarded as the basic condition, the excellent temperament is only a plus, but also need to be versatile, play and sing, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry as a pair, all of them are fine, and the talent is not much better than some literati.

The chosen Oiran will be worth twice as much, and will be protected by the Flower Picker, and for three years, he will only need to perform his talents, and he will not have to commit himself.

However, as soon as the three-year period expires, it is necessary to choose one person to entrust for life by setting up examination questions, which is today's "Oiran out of the cabinet".

On the second day after the predecessor Oiran came out of the cabinet, it was a new Oiran Contest, and so on and so forth, and the cycle continued.

This Xuanxuan girl is already the twenty-third Oiran of the Flower Water Building.

Speaking of going back to the Oiran out of the cabinet, the exam questions given by the previous Oiran are not the same.

There are those who let the participants recite poems against each other, some let the participants play the piano and make music, some let the participants play against each other, some let the participants compete, and some even let the participants say a love word to move themselves.

Maybe it's for marketing, or maybe it's really for feelings, Shihua Shuilou gives Oiran the right to choose freely, regardless of identity, status, or money, and who to choose is all based on Oiran's own liking!

Therefore, the identities of the successive returnees are different, including high-ranking officials and giants, rich gentry, literati, and even monks and Taoists.

The most talked-about thing is that because the sixth Oiran did not choose a satisfactory person, he simply didn't choose anyone, and directly cut his hair as a nun, and grew with the ancient Buddha of the green light!

At that time, this incident caused a sensation in the entire Yandi City, and since then, the Flower Picking Water Building has become an instant hit, completely establishing the status of the top class in the Qinglou world!

The above are all told by the old man who was bored when he was holding the boat and told it to the three of them.

"Wow, what a show! A cheap prostitute, really worth being sought after by so many people? Fan Yongxian sneered and said disdainfully.

Li Fu listened attentively and replied casually: "Of course it's worth it." Standing out among many people and becoming an Oiran is an aura. In the past three years, the eyes and praise of countless people have shaped her golden body. The halo is set on the outside of the golden body, and the natural brilliance is dazzling, as bright as a treasure pearl. In other words, what people are looking after is not her person, the glamorous 'clothes' on her body. ”

"Clothes?" Fan Yong scratched his head first, and some didn't understand.

On the contrary, the old man laughed and took over the words: "This son said it well! For example, a famous painting is just a piece of rice paper with a little pen and ink on it, why can some of them be worth 10,000 gold? Another example is jadeite jade, in the final analysis, it is just a good-looking stone, why can some of it be priceless? It's nothing more than someone likes it, some people compete for it, and some people chase it! Hehe, even if it's a piece of shit, if it's noticed by everyone, and if you like it, it will become worth a lot of money! I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the little old man's words were rude, and he stained the ears of the three sons. ”

The old man's face was a little obscene, but he didn't expect the facts to be quite thorough.

"It's okay, it's not rough." Li Fu waved his hand indifferently.

Fan Yongxian suddenly realized: "I understand! Isn't this the same reason that I like to take out rare objects that others don't have? ”

"That's right!" The old man smiled with folds on his face, and echoed in his voice: "Childe's metaphor is appropriate, it is a rare object!" The woman in this green building, whether she is a Qing or a red woman, how can she still be considered a person? It's just an object! Even the sought-after Oiran is a rarity at best! When you are played with in the palm of your hand and cherished, it is worth a lot of money. One day, when people are in a bad mood and throw it away, it will be worthless! ”
