Chapter 43: The Opening

"Go and get the carriage ready." Li Changge instructed Qi Huan beside him.

"Miss, but you're going on a long trip?" Qi Huan was puzzled by what she meant, but he still quickly dealt with it.

This is also what she likes the most, she never asks more about her master's words, she has always been loyal to the Lord, and she is careful and will not have superfluous thoughts.

Li Changge got into the carriage from the back door of the house, and the carriage traveled all the way to the restaurant in the west of the city.

It is the closest to the city gate, and it stands to reason that there are many people coming and going, but the business of the restaurant is not very good.

After obtaining her consent, Qi Huan got out of the carriage and bargained with the shopkeeper who sold the restaurant.

"Thirty thousand taels? You think this is a robbery of silver, carefully I sue the official that you are extortion, if your restaurant business is good, how can you want to sell it......" Qi Huan heard his lion open his mouth, and immediately his little face turned red.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant didn't think so, and bit 30,000 taels at a fixed price.

The two argued for a long time with this result, Li Changge listened carefully to the movement outside the carriage, and softly called for his joy.

"Don't fight, you take it to him, and then ask him when he can sell the restaurant."

He lowered his eyes and looked at the extra 30,000 taels of silver tickets in his hand, and reluctantly handed them over to the shopkeeper of the restaurant.

"Thank you for the girl's generous move, if you are still here tomorrow, you will be able to hand over the title deed of the restaurant." The shopkeeper of the restaurant accepted the silver ticket with a flattering smile on his face.

Qi Huan got back into the carriage, and couldn't figure out why the young lady used so much silver.

If Qinglou can't return to its original cost in the future, it will be a big loss.

Li Changge couldn't help but chuckle when he saw her calm little face: "I don't lack food and clothing in the house, it's useless to pile up these silvers, after the Qinglou is completed, it can be compared to the dust in the corner." ”

While the master and servant were talking, the carriage suddenly stopped, and there was a cry outside.

"Woo woo, please save me!" The woman's voice cried out in a terrible voice, which made people's brows jump.

Li Changge lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that the woman in front of the carriage was only seventeen or eighteen years old.

There are some filth and blood stains on Qingxiu's face, and there are even more scars on her arms, what kind of inhuman abuse must be suffered to be like this?

Li Changge sighed softly, and the pearls on her earlobes swayed gently with her movements, making her even more sacred and inviolable.

"Go get her up." Naturally, this was said to him.

She didn't plan to pay attention to it originally, but now that she has lived again, some things are naturally more enlightened.

Being able to be reborn is the virtue of God's good life, and it is appropriate to be able to do some good deeds, since it is good to do your part in the encounter.

Coupled with the Qinglou that is about to open, it is now the time to employ people, and Xia Yin alone is far from enough.

If the woman in front of her is rescued and willing to join, it will always be good.

The woman was pulled into the carriage by Qi Huan, and looked at Li Changge with timid eyes.

Listening to the movement that seemed to be looking for someone outside, I was so scared that I didn't even dare to come out.

The carriage looked no different from an ordinary carriage on the outside, and there was no sign of the Prince's Palace, and those people were clamoring to get on the carriage and search under the pretext of losing people.

"What kind of emperor is not the princess, I don't believe in this, even if it is the king of heaven and Laozi today, you have to let me go in and search!" One of them raised his voice and cursed, and when he stepped forward, he was about to push the driver, and his actions were extremely rude.

The man's hand had already touched the carriage curtain, and Li Changge's voice sounded at the right time, and a sneer appeared on his calm face: "Who wants to search my carriage?" ”

"Even if you don't know the identity of my general's concubine, you should know the emperor's marriage. If you just say this, I'm afraid it's as simple as losing your head! ”

At that time, the competition between her and Tuoba Huan to recruit relatives was famous in the capital, and the marriage ceremony between the two was also very grand, and Li Ke almost gave her half of the general's mansion as a dowry.

Several people in the carriage saw that she knelt down and saluted one after another, her body trembled, and her face was panicked: "I don't know if the princess is here, please forgive ...... sin."

Li Changge pursed his lips and said nothing, knowing that if this matter dragged on, sooner or later they would notice something abnormal.

She didn't say anything more, lowered the curtain and showed a cold look, and let the coachman continue to drive the carriage.

After a long time, the woman was slightly relieved to see that the people had not caught up.

She didn't hear it wrong just now, this turned out to be the carriage of the princess, she didn't expect that she could have such a lucky thing, and she couldn't help but be grateful.

"Thank you to the princess today, the slave family is kind, she is originally from Jinzhou, Jiangnan, and was abducted and sold into the Qinglou by her teeth. The old bustard didn't force me to pick up the guests, so he whipped me with a whip soaked in salt water......"

Oi sobbed softly, and her tone of voice was delicate and soft, not like the people in the capital.

Li Changge's face twisted slightly when he heard this, and the expression in his eyes sank.

I also heard her say that it was the old bustard in the Qinglou who robbed a lot of people, and some of them had no place of origin, and the government couldn't track them down.

"And what will you do? I also want to open a green house, but I don't sell my body, if you want to go back, I will give you some silver later. She said no more, and went straight to the point.

"I can sing some Jiangnan songs, and there is no one else in the family. If the princess doesn't dislike it, please accept me. Oi hesitated on her face, but now there was no other way.

Li Changge nodded in agreement, and agreed that she would help rescue the remaining detainees.

After bringing Oi back to the palace, she asked the doctor to see her for treatment.

When her wounds were bandaged, she saw dozens of girls of about the same age standing outside the room, with different wounds on their bodies, but they were all carefully bandaged.

"I am grateful to the princess for rescuing me, and I am willing to serve you from now on!" The women knelt down and spoke in unison.

Li Changge temporarily placed these people in the palace, and a few days later changed the original restaurant to a green building and named it Taoyao Building.

The only ones who are more outstanding are Xia Yin and Oi, and the rest of the women also have their own merits.

When it first opened, there weren't many people.

However, Li Changge insisted on holding a literati gathering and attending the banquet in the name of a friend, which could be regarded as attracting everyone's attention.

At first, it was only a few dignitaries or literati, but later the reputation of Taoyao Lou spread out, and it was getting better and better.

The money she originally invested was returned in just a few months, and Taoyao Building is now comparable to the first green building in the capital.

"I knew that your Qinglou was so good at making money, and I should have given a share before, so wouldn't there be mine in these dividends now?" Tuoba Truss walked in with a chuckle, playing with the folding fan that outlined the landscape painting.

This is a room specially set up by Li Changge for himself, and ordinary people cannot easily enter without permission.

"It's not too late for you to come now, you can go to those girls now, but there is a woman you fancie?" She wasn't annoyed when she heard him make fun of herself like that.

This gentle sentence suddenly choked him speechless.

Tuoba Truss looked at her with interest, laughed out loud when he heard the words, raised his hand and gently pinched her chin, his phoenix eyes were full of smiles, but there was no other movement.

"If I say I have a crush on you, you can come with me?" His thin lips curled as if in a joking.

Li Changge glanced at him amusedly, and when he bumped into his burning gaze, he unconsciously reddened the roots of his ears.

She opened her eyes a little annoyed, and raised her hand to push him away: "Don't make fun of me again." ”

Tuoba Truss lowered his eyes and smiled between his eyebrows, and his cold face was replaced by a few hints of gloom, which were a little dignified and complicated.

"The reason why I came to you is because I have something important to say, ...... over there"

Li Changge's face was solemn after hearing this, this is indeed a tricky question.

The kind Jiangnan Xiaoqu is considered to be the best in Taoyao Building, and with Xia Yin's dancing posture, it is even more difficult to take your eyes off, so many people come here.

"I see how tired the little lady is dancing here, so it's better to go to the house with me to enjoy the happiness and have fun, and also steal a leisurely place. It won't tire you out! ”

The box was jerked open.

The man staggered in and directly reached out to hug Xia Yin, looking plain and drunk, and laughing extremely disgustingly.

"I don't sell my body, my son is not drunk, so go back and wake up first!" Xia Yin was angry and anxious, constantly struggling in his arms.

These words made him smile even more, and it was the first time she had encountered such a thing.

Before he knew whether Li Changge would really make decisions for himself, he didn't dare to push him away directly.

"The more you struggle to obey me, the more I like you. I want to accept you as a concubine, but I am Zhang Chong, the son of Shaoqing of Dali Temple, what reason do you have for refusing? ”

Several people in the box heard him report his identity, and immediately dispersed.

After all, no one wants to offend the ministers of the DPRK and China for the sake of a mere geisha, which is thankless.

"You let go of her, you can't do anything here!" Oi was not stunned, and was about to step forward to help when she saw this, but he pushed her to the ground.

"Don't get out of the way for this son, what's the use of singing songs, there are a bunch of singers in the house, how can there be a beautiful and moving ...... of our little silver" Zhang Chong finished speaking, and was about to kiss the person in his arms.

Xia Yin's face suddenly turned pale, and his whole body was almost weak with fright.

Hearing that he humiliated himself so much, Oi was so angry that she stepped forward and slapped him.

Zhang Chong simply let go of the person in his arms and threw himself directly towards her, and Oi was pushed to the ground by him.

He had a vicious look on his face, and he kept scolding in his mouth: "Look at me if I don't give you some color!" ”

Oi was beaten by him several times, her clothes and hair were disheveled, and tears flowed from her face.

Xia Yin took the opportunity to escape and reported the matter to Li Changge.

Tuoba Truss on the side naturally heard this, thinking about how this woman would deal with it.

"There were rules before the opening of Taoyao Building, but it was just a show of art, not a body, but if someone was drunk and made trouble, he would just break his hand and throw it out!" Li Changge's eyes were a little sharp.

Soon someone took Oi to treat her injuries, she cried as if she hadn't come back to her senses, and Zhang Chong was thrown at the door with a broken hand, and the pain was a little sober at this time.

"Which rabbit cub dares to do something to me?" Zhang Chong wailed.
