For a moment, all the women present looked at Chen Xuan.

The fate of these one hundred and thirty women is entirely in his hands.

"I plan to close the brothel."

Chen Xuan said with a smile.

"Great, I agree with this suggestion!"

Yang Ying'er clapped her hands without even thinking.

However, Xu Ruolan looked embarrassed.

"Sister Xu, if you close the brothel, these women will be free. Why do you still look so sad?"

Yang Ying'er couldn't help but speak in surprise.

Xu Ruolan sighed softly, "Sister, this matter is not as simple as you think. If we close the brothel, how will these women make a living? Without the brothel, they will have no source of income. Are we going to watch them starve to death in the future?"

The prostitutes in the brothels in Mancheng are basically not locals.

After all, it would be shameful to become a prostitute if the news got out, so basically people would not do such a thing locally. Most of the locals would go to other places, and people from other places would come here.

Although many of the women in Liao's brothel were bought, they were all from other places.

Some local women were bought, and the Liao family also sold them to other cities. This is an unwritten rule in this industry.

Li Xiuning nodded in agreement and said slowly, "The brothel needs to be closed, but these 130 women are 130 mouths to feed. We still need to solve their livelihood problems."

"This is very simple. I have already thought of a solution."

Chen Xuan smiled slightly. Since he had thought of rectifying the brothel, he naturally had his own way of dealing with these prostitutes.

"What are you going to do?"

Li Xiuning looked at Chen Xuan curiously.

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "The hermit has his own clever plan!"

Afterwards, he gave the house deeds and land deeds to Li Xiuning for safekeeping, but he kept the 130 indentures himself, preparing to go to the brothel.

"Sisters, let's follow our husband to the brothel. The whores in the brothel are more cunning than each other. Don't let the smell of their bodies bother your husband. Let's go together and keep an eye on them."

Xu Ruolan said sarcastically.

This is because they are afraid that Chen Xuan will fall into the beauty trap. After all, the women in brothels are very capable of all kinds of tricks, and few men can escape unscathed after entering.

Eight women in the family are already enough. What if Chen Xuan goes there and brings back a few more women?

How could Chen Xuan not know what they were thinking? But he didn't care. If they wanted to follow him, they could follow him. When they saw him sitting on Liu Xiahui's lap without being tempted, maybe he could earn some favor from them!

There are a total of six brothels in the entire Barbarian City.

Among them, the Liao family owned four, and the largest brothel also belonged to the Liao family.

Chen Xuan directly asked Xiao Liuzi to find the madams of the four brothels, and then asked these madams to bring the "daughters" under their care.

"Oh, sir, you are planning to find some pretty girls to serve you."

"Master, don't worry. The girls in our brothel have all been trained long ago. They will definitely serve you comfortably!"

How could these madams not understand men? They all flirted with each other and covered their mouths with their hands while laughing secretly.

Soon, all the brothel staff came.

What surprised Chen Xuan was that although there were only 130 indentures, more than 150 people came.

"Why are there more than 20 people coming out?"

Chen Xuan was a little surprised.

Later I learned that some people did it voluntarily and did not sell their bodies. They were just desperate, so they did this job to earn some money to supplement their family income.

A very small number of people are purely dissolute and have greater demands in that area, so working in this field is a kind of enjoyment for them.

There is also a small number of women who have already redeemed their indentures, but they have become accustomed to this line of work and don't know what to do if they leave the brothels, so they simply stay while they are still young and pretty.

Of course, this is rare.

Those who can redeem their indentures are all old employees who have worked in brothels for who knows how many years!

Brothels exploit the women they work in very harshly.

For example, he only earns ten cents at a time, but the brothel takes 90% of it, and only 10% goes to the women.

With just this 10%, we still have to pay for various other expenses including food and accommodation.

In addition, the women in brothels also need to buy various rouge and powder to dress themselves up, all of which cost money.

Therefore, many prostitutes are busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and even if they serve men every day, they cannot save much money.

This is simply the exploitation of slaves by slave owners!

"Why are there still men?"

Chen Xuan had a strange expression on his face. Among these women, he actually saw a few good-looking men.

Xu Ruolan knew the ins and outs of this business, and she explained softly, "Some wealthy people have special tastes. They are not interested in women, only in men, so brothels specifically keep some male concubines."

Chen Xuan suddenly realized.

The so-called "mian Shou" is just a duck, isn't it?

All I can say is that some people do have unique tastes, and they like to try something different.

"Well, sir, which one do you like? I'll immediately tell my men to wash and perfume you and send you to bed. I promise to serve you comfortably."

The madams of the four brothels all spoke with a smile.

They have all heard the news that the Liao family's property has now become Chen Xuan's. They are now Chen Xuan's people, so naturally they have to serve him respectfully.

For a moment, all the girls in the brothel showed anticipation. If they could be favored by Mr. Chen, they would be able to rise to great heights.

Some of them looked worried, fearing that Mr. Chen had some special hobbies and liked to do some unbearable tricks.

Of course, more people are numb.

They have long since fallen, their thoughts have rotted, and they have long since become degenerate.

Chen Xuan swept his eyes over all of them, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said in a loud voice: "From today on, there will no longer be four major brothels in Barbarian City. All of you are not allowed to engage in the prostitution industry and are not allowed to make money by selling your bodies!"

boom!

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like a thunderclap that fell into the quiet lake, instantly causing huge waves!

"Master Chen, what are you talking about?"

Everyone wondered if they had heard it wrong?

Chen Xuan actually told the brothel girls not to do this business anymore?

Are you kidding me?

Are you kidding?

"I say, what do you think of closing the brothel?"

Chen Xuan looked at the hard-of-hearing madam.

"Oh my good Lord, Master Chen, are you kidding me? If we close the brothel, how are we going to survive?"
