Jia Huan and his entourage set off from Suzhou on the evening of April 9 and arrived in Jinling on the afternoon of April 20 after 11 days. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

During this time, Jia Huan also learned the specific details of the Oiran Competition from Lin Qianwei.

The Oiran Contest is usually held for 15 days. The organizers were Tianwen Zong, Nanjing Rite Department Shangshu Fang Wang, and a group of literati around him. Tasting famous flowers. The eunuchs and giant businessmen in Jinling City will participate and provide venues and financial sponsorship.

Literati and prostitutes from Jinling, Yangzhou, Suzhou, Songjiang, Wuxi, and Zhenjiang will participate. The time is generally set for the end of April. Since eight years ago, since the fourth year of Yongzhi, Grandmaster Fang was appointed as the secretary of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, it has been held for 7 sessions. The names of the four great talents in Jiangnan and the four famous prostitutes have been evaluated over the years.

There are only two rounds on the schedule. Preliminary and semi-final. In the semi-finals, the ten most famous prostitutes were selected from hundreds of famous prostitutes, and the Oiran was judged by celebrities, officials, and huge commodities in the Shengqi Building.

With such a huge event and event, Jia Huan is eyeing the business opportunities in it. But in fact, the commercial operation of this area has been explored by giant businessmen in seven or eight years, and famous prostitutes often endorse "advertising".

In addition, greater commercial profits are opened on the periphery. Each outstanding prostitute corresponds to the winning handicap.

How profitable the gambling industry is, Jia Huan naturally knows it. But when it comes to gambling, there is bound to be violence. He will definitely not be able to get into this piece.

If you look at the industries that make money, there are many. For example, gambling, arms, drugs, real estate, and finance are all huge profits. And if you divide it from the customer base, it is recognized that women and children make money very well.

Since there are many famous prostitutes, the way Jia Huan has to consider making money is to take money out of the pockets of famous prostitutes. As for whether it was the prostitute himself, or the scholar, or the wealthy merchant who paid the bill, it was not his concern.

The weather is sunny and breezy. During the eleven days of the journey, it seemed that the atmosphere of early summer became stronger. The noise of the dock reached the ship.

Jia Huanzheng and Lin Qianwei were sitting and drinking tea on the high side of the hall. Qingwen, Ruyi, and Lin Qianwei's maid Yunyao are all there. The luggage has been packed and everyone is waiting to disembark.

"Jinling is here!" Lin Qianwei sat on a wooden chair, wearing a pink skirt, slender and graceful, with a somewhat lazy expression, speaking in an aria tone, her voice was beautiful, and her reluctant emotions came out of the tone.

Jia Huan's gaze swept over her beautiful face unconsciously. Goose egg face, starry eyes, straight nose, delicate facial features. A bright and incomprehensible face. There is an indescribable noble and elegant temperament on his body.

He didn't ask about Lin Qianwei's life experience. Women who fall into the teaching department will have a sad past. According to his estimate, this girl is likely to be the queen of the official eunuch. Otherwise, the temperament of a noble lady with a gesture cannot be explained.

"Hmm. It's here. I plan to do some business, if it is convenient for Miss Lin, can you introduce me to meet your mother. ”

In terms of friendship, he is more familiar with Su Shishi. But I also want to know that Su Shishi's connections in the circle of famous prostitutes in Jinling are not good. Otherwise, she would have been popular in Jiangnan long ago. Su Shishi's appearance, temperament, and talent are all a temporary choice.

Of course, Lin Qianwei in front of him is not bad. A few days ago, she said that she didn't want to compete for the top spot in the Oiran, but in fact she was the Jiangnan Oiran last year. I took it for two years in a row. Su Shishi is beautiful and quiet, and Lin Qianwei is bright and noble.

But doing business is not about friendship. Lin Qianwei is the first of the four famous prostitutes in Jiangnan, and her reputation and channels in this circle can be imagined.

Lin Qianwei raised her jade hand elegantly, covered her mouth and chuckled, and looked at Jia Huan with bright eyes, "I almost thought that Mr. Jia had the intention of redeeming me." I'll talk to Mother Jin when I go to Xiaomeng Pavilion in the afternoon. Come to visit tomorrow morning. ”

Jia Huan's address in Jinling has long been leaked.

Yun Yao on the side shook her head speechlessly. Is there such a thing, girl? Haven't you redeemed the deed a long time ago?

Looking at the charming Lin beauty, Jia Huan smiled and rubbed her eyebrows, this can be regarded as being teased by a big beauty, right? She didn't hide her closeness at all. Jia Huan took a sip of tea, calmed down, and said, "Miss Lin, don't be in such a hurry. I'm going to see the teacher tomorrow morning. The day after tomorrow. ”

After chatting for a while, Qian Huai came outside to report that he had hired a carriage.

Jia Huan, Daiyu, Lin Qianwei and his party got off the boat.

In the afternoon of the same day, Jia Huan learned from the visiting Xiao You'an that the date of this year's Oiran Competition: April 28 will be held in the first scenic spot of Jinling, Mochou Lake.

In the twelfth year of Yongzhi, the government examination of Yingtianfu was held on April 22. The chief examiner is Jia Yucun, the prefect of Jinling. After the prefectural exam, it is the Oiran Contest.

…

In the afternoon, there were several small boats leisurely on the Qinhuai River.

In an exquisite pavilion in the Yunyan Courtyard of Zhushi on the south bank of the Qinhuai River, Su Shishi was dressed in white, quietly looking at the scenery of the Qinhuai River by the window. On the stool beside him was a letter.

"Shishi, are you thinking about that man again?"

Laughter and footsteps could be heard behind him. Su Shishi turned around and saw the top sign of Yunyan Courtyard, and her friend Liu Ruyan came in from outside the door with a maid.

Su Shishi smiled and said, "No." I heard that my sister was fascinated by several scholars who came to take the exam. ”

She's worried about the Oiran contest. In fact, last year, she came to Jinling from the capital in a high-profile manner, wanting to beat the famous prostitutes in the south of the Yangtze River and become the first prostitute in the world. But this wish, she is not interested in it now. There have been too many setbacks. However, did she just go back to the capital like this?

The heart is as arrogant as her, and she can't accept it.

Liu Ruyan giggled, walked to Su Shishi's side and held her arm. After a few words of affectionate laughter. Knowing the sorrow in Su Shishi's heart, she said with a smile: "My sister can be Mr. Qingsong's cousin." With this relationship, as long as Mr. Aomatsu writes a wonderful poem for you. In this Oiran contest, it is not a problem for you to finish in the top 10 at all. ”

The crux of the matter was there, and she knew it well. Su Shishi is a northerner. No one in Jinling City praised her. But if Jia Huan makes a move, don't think about the top spot, and there is no problem in entering the semifinals. It's always good to come to Jinling and get nothing.

Su Shishi smiled softly. Poetry, Mr. Jia has already given it to her. Or handwriting. The letter just now was sent by Mr. Jia, and she can come to the door tomorrow to continue teaching that Miss Lin.

However, the sorrow in her heart is hard to go. Mr. Jia's poetry is certainly good, and his reputation is also great. However, in such a contest full of profits, silver exchanges, and entanglements, how much role can it have?

…

Jinling City District, Nanjing Ministry of Shangshu Chen Gaolang Fuzhong. In a bright pavilion in the front yard, Chen Zi truly admired the beauty sitting at the table and flipping through the catalog. The catalogue is all related to the Chen family's business: medicinal herbs, porcelain, silk, paper, etc.

She is Zinan, a famous prostitute promoted by the Chen family. Sixteen years old, delicate and beautiful. It is already quite famous in the Qinhuai River.

In the past, the head of the Oiran was set by the Ministry of Etiquette, and Fang Wang personally decided it. Of course, there is also an exchange of interests in it. However, he had already received news from Zhen Li that Grandmaster Fang would soon leave for the capital to serve as the president of "Emperor Zhou Yinghua".

Next, it's much easier to get started.

Zi Nan put down the paper in his hand, looked up and said, "Chen Gongzi, I've finished reading it." "A glutinous Jiangnan accent.

…

The palace lantern is lit in the painting boat and floats on the Qinhuai River.

In the flower hall, Yuan Jingxiang, a famous prostitute in the south of the Yangtze River, sat in Zhen Li's arms, wearing a goose-yellow skirt, and was delicate and coquettish. She wanted the title of Gangnam Oiran.

Zhen Li patted her sturdy and fleshy buttocks, and a smile appeared on Jun's face: "Wait." There's no drama for you this year. Next year! ”

The pressure on the court is getting tighter and tighter. He was a little worried. But my father's plan has already been deployed. Next, just wait for the competition to start in a few days.

…

When Jia Huan returned to Jinling, he felt the atmosphere of the Oiran Competition. On the afternoon of the 20th, Xiao Youan came to the door to tell him the details.

However, he doesn't care who wins. He was concerned with how to sell his "goods". The first item: there are no underwear panties in this era. He intends to set a precedent. Underwear, he estimated a little difficult. After all, steel rims are used. The panties are very well made. There is no shortage of exquisite fabrics and silk in Jiangnan.

Although he is a professional manager and cares about these women's products, as a scholar, it will be difficult to get involved in such a lace-prone business. Therefore, he planned to sell the sample to Lin Qianwei's "agent", Xiaomengge's mother Jin. It's up to her to promote. Qinglou, the first to open underwear and erotic-fun underwear, this is understandable.

The second item, his eyes fell on the perfume. The women of the Zhou Dynasty used incense. Or a purse with spices. Perfume this thing, he knows the effect. However, the production process still needs to be considered and experimented. On the way back, he worked out some plans. There are still more than 20 days left before the rematch on the winning chess floor, and there is plenty of time.

Before making money, Jia Huan still has one more thing to do, which is to hand over the plan of Guozijian to operate the teaching assistant book to the mountain chief. He had already written a plan on the way back.

After settling Daiyu, seeing that her mood and body were not bad, she chatted for a while, and on the morning of the 21st, Jia Huan took the plan and took a boat to the Dagongfang Mountain Chief's Mansion.

Pang Ze, who was in the house, greeted Jia Huan with a smile on his face, and said with a spring breeze: "Ziyu returned just right." I have already obtained the permission of my parents to hold a wedding in Jinling in two days to marry Bai Fu. ”

"Congratulations, congratulations!" Jia Huan congratulated Pang Ze with joy.

Pang Ze smirked.

The two laughed and walked into the side hall. Chatting about their recent situation. Jia Huan took Daiyu to Suzhou to sweep the tomb for more than half a month. An old servant served tea.

The current major events in Jinling City are the government examination and the Oiran competition. However, there was already news in the newspaper that Grandmaster Fang was about to leave for Jinling to serve as the president of the book repair, and he would not be able to return to Jiangnan for at least six or seven years. It is normal for this kind of large-scale book revision activity to take one or two decades. Otherwise, how can it be called a cultural festival and highlight the rule of culture.

In all dynasties, as long as the country's economy is strong and prosperous, it will definitely revise books and local chronicles to pass on to future generations. This is a symbol of economic and cultural strength.

was about to marry his sweetheart, Pang Ze was overjoyed, wearing a blue shirt, with a smile on his ugly face, and reminded: "Ziyu, you and Ji Dexin are both protégés of Sect Master Fang, so you should give them away." ”

Jia Huan nodded, "I'll visit Ji Dexin with me when I go back." Oh, what about the mountain chief? Still lecturing in Guozijian? ”

"Hey, it's been almost ten days. The chief of the mountain fell out with the wine of the warm sacrifice because of the reform of the national eunuch. You'll find out when the mountain chief comes back from the Ministry of Rites for lunch. The warm sacrificial wine follows the rules and the thinking is extremely rigid. ”

Jia Huan was slightly surprised. The mountain chief and the warm sacrificial wine fell out? (To be continued.) )
