Chapter 166 The girl misunderstood. I didn’t come to the brothel to have fun.

In fact, the madam had noticed from the moment Su Changan and the others came in that the clothes worn by these three masked gentlemen were not something that could be bought casually.

You can tell it is Xia brocade at first glance, and the small flower groups on it are definitely made by a great embroiderer.

So even though the madam saw the words on the sign, so what!

We come here to play and give money, are other things important?

but

The madam was surprised to see the jade plate in her hand, which had an ordinary "nine" pattern carved on it.

She didn't dare to say the dirty words she wanted to say, and immediately said flatteringly: "Oh, why didn't you give me a heads up? The private rooms upstairs are all full. How about you condescend to wait here, and I will arrange something for you."

Su Changan disagreed with this. After all, this brand was Li Jiulang's brand, which was also the brand that Xia Fengxiang showed to the madam last time.

The reason is simple. Those who make a living by working in the red-light district have to look at Li Jiulang's face, otherwise they can forget about making it in the red-light district.

As for the reason, Su Changan asked Xia Fengxiang, and Xia Fengxiang told him that it was because the entire gang of thugs in Huajie was trained by Li Jiulang.

Li Jiulang used the rent and protection fees he received from these brothels to provide accommodation for those girls who were sick or unwilling to work but had no money to redeem themselves.

Therefore, the major red-light districts in Luoan City were both afraid of and respected Li Jiulang.

Su Changan looked at the madam and shook his head and said, "We want to see Miss Liu Baishi Liu."

Hearing

The madam was stunned for a moment.

The people around had been looking at Su Changan and the other three, wondering what these three could do. After all, the sign of "fawning on favors" clearly stated that they were here to get things done.

When they heard Su Changan's words, the sharp-eared guests around them immediately started to make a noise, "Look, this handsome young master of ours is here to ask Miss White Lion for help, hahahaha!"

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone in the hall was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter again.

"Out of ten people who come to the flower shop to do business, eleven of them are here to see Miss White Lion. If you want to know why there is one more person, it's because he sneaked in. But why are we all sitting here and no one is with Miss White Lion?"

"I thought he was a young man who knew how to attract girls' attention, but he turned out to be a novice who came to the flower shop for the first time!"

"Little brother, you can't win the favor of Miss White Lion like this. If you really want to attract Miss White Lion's attention, you must have Miss Chang'an's calligraphy. Now Miss White Lion only recognizes Miss Chang'an's calligraphy."

"Come on, brother, take off your mask and let the guys see how good-looking you are. If you are really good-looking, you might even catch the attention of the White Lion girl."

"Hey, you're here to see Miss White Lion? Isn't your wife angry? Otherwise, I'll go tell your wife, so we can see a domestic violence scene."

…

Everyone in the hall was talking and laughing at Su Changan.

The half-naked girls around each person smiled awkwardly and drank with the men next to them, but they also looked at Su Changan and the others with great curiosity.

When the madam heard the nonsense these people said, she pursed her lips, smiled at Su Changan, and immediately turned her head and said, "Hey, gentlemen, let's have fun. The girls should give you a few more drinks."

You definitely can't curse people directly, after all, these guys are also gods of wealth.

When everyone heard what the madam said, no one said much. They just watched how the boy who wore a mask and tried to curry favor was rejected by the madam.

Want to see the white lion girl

Dream on!!

There are so many people in the capital who want to see him. Even Yang Guofu has to queue up!

The madam smiled at Su Changan and said respectfully, "Sir, please come this way. Bai Shi is a lazy girl. She is probably lying down or reading a book right now. I'll go and tell her to clean up."

Su Changan said: "Don't bother me so much, I just came to ask Miss White Lion a few questions, and then I'll leave after that."

The madam immediately frowned and said, "We cannot treat such a distinguished guest so casually. It will be quick. Please just follow me upstairs and wait."

After saying that, she immediately shouted to a maid holding a tray in the hall, "Xi'er, go and ask Bai Shi to clean up. A distinguished guest is coming to see her."

The maid who was about the same age as Linghua was stunned for a moment, looking a little unbelievable, but immediately nodded, turned around and ran to find Liu Baishi.

And this movement

The hall, which was originally filled with people watching the show, suddenly fell silent.

The guests who had been laughing and joking before, all looked at the masked Su Changan and the madam in confusion.

What? ! !

Can you see?

Liu Baishi never accepts guests. He only comes out to perform occasionally and then opens the bid, and then he will sit with people to have a meal and drink.

Sometimes the mark is opened only once every six months, and sometimes it is opened suddenly.

As for other times to see her.

Don’t even think about it.

Lord Yang Guofu, who had been demoted five levels, came to show off his power and was determined to meet Miss Baishi. However, as powerful as he was at the beginning, he left in a hurry.

result

As a result, when this brat who was trying to curry favor with the emperor came today, the madam arranged for him to be married directly? ?

"Mother Wu, you have to give us an explanation for this matter."

"Does this gentleman know Miss Baishi? Or someone else? If you don't give me an explanation for this, Madam Wu, I will go to Cuiweiju next door from now on."

"Yeah, how come we can see this guy who is just trying to attract attention? Is he really that good-looking?"

…

The guests were talking to each other, and many of them were extremely curious.

Meeting someone is nothing.

But there has to be an explanation.

The madam said in secret, "Hey, gentlemen, this young man has Miss Chang'an's writing. Bai Shi said that if someone with Miss Chang'an's writing comes, they can meet directly. If you want to meet, how about you also ask for Miss Chang'an's writing and bring it with you?"

After saying this, the madam immediately whispered to Su Changan respectfully and explained: "Sir, the fewer people know about the plaque, the better. I can't offend these people, so I lied. Please don't be offended, sir."

Su Changan naturally nodded to show his understanding.

But the people below heard this.

Suddenly there was a commotion.

They all stared with wide eyes at Su Changan, whom they had laughed at before, with disbelief in their eyes.

I actually got Miss Changan's writing

Who is Miss Chang'an? She is number one on the Rouge List and her literary talent is top-notch. Now some people say that it is a blessing that Miss Chang'an did not take part in the imperial examination, otherwise there would be no place for these talented men.

Most importantly

That's the Queen!

Her writing is truly priceless nowadays!

At the Su Mansion, people go through the garbage every day, hoping to find Miss Chang'an's writings. Even though they know that Miss Chang'an is not at the Su Mansion now, it is worth a try.

Why!

A penny of ink is worth a thousand gold!

Miss Chang'an's writings and calligraphy are now priced at a huge amount of gold!

"Little brother, five thousand taels, will you sell it?"

"Five thousand? I'll give you six thousand!"

"Eight thousand!"

…

The wind direction in the hall kept changing, from the laughter of Su Changan and his gang at the beginning to everyone clasping their fists and shouting at Su Changan.

The change was a bit too fast, which made Linghua a little uncomfortable.

Especially when she heard that her young lady's writing was so expensive, the little maid who had been in the palace was shocked.

After all, the young lady's writings and calligraphy are scattered everywhere in Lingqi Pavilion, especially in the cat's place. The cat sometimes throws them away casually, and then they burn them after cleaning.

Thinking of this, Linghua was stunned, because according to this calculation, this would mean that hundreds of thousands of taels of silver had been burned.

Following the madam all the way to the backyard.

On the way, Su Changan saw a Japanese.

Because the outfit is so recognizable at first glance, with short stature and a unique hairstyle, he looks annoying.

The Japanese man held a glass of wine in his hand and stared at Yan Ruyu and Linghua behind Su Changan with narrowed eyes.

When they passed by the Japanese, he sniffed and said with satisfaction: "It's really a girl, not bad, not bad, very good."

The girl next to the Japanese man was naked, and she could see the beautiful scenery by bending down slightly. The young girl's long legs were held in the Japanese man's arms.

Although the girl felt a little disgusted that this Japanese man only played with her legs every time he came, she became casual when she thought about how generous he was and how he gave her gold directly every time.

When they arrived at the backyard, the madam told Su Changan that the backyard was a forbidden area of ​​the Shihua Pavilion and no one was allowed to enter except distinguished guests.

After going around the backyard and arriving at a two-story building, the madam said that this was where Liu Baishi lived.

Let Su Changan wait for a moment.

Su Changan nodded.

Linghua couldn't wait to ask, "Miss, those people outside are using such foul language, they should be taught a lesson by Commander Yan!"

Su Changan smiled and said, "It's important to do the right thing, and everyone here is like this."

Although Linghua was wearing a mask, her eyes were full of anger. However, when she thought of her young lady's writing, she asked again, "Then you should have told us that your writing is so valuable. We have burned a lot of it."

Su Changan gently tapped Linghua's mask, then said, "Don't reveal your identity."

Linghua nodded immediately and stopped talking.

immediately

The madam came out and invited Su Changan and others in.

Then they saw Liu Baishi in green clothes sitting and waiting for them.

Although Liu Baishi's appearance was not as good as Su Changan's, she was also extremely beautiful, especially her eyes, which were smiling, coquettish and charming. Her eyes were dancing on the ground with charm, and her red lips were slightly open, which made people want to kiss her.

She truly deserves to be the number one courtesan in Luoan City!

What a beautiful woman, she exudes charm from the inside out.

Su Changan used to watch Liu Baishi dance from afar, but that day he was so busy kissing Xia Fengxiang that he didn't really watch much.

I was quite surprised to see it today.

No wonder she could become the most beautiful courtesan and was even called by Xun Kuang as 'as charming as a demon and as enchanting as a spring flower'.

Liu Baishi was not surprised to see these people wearing masks, after all, that was what the madam had just said.

But when he saw the words on the sign that Yan Ruyu had been holding, Liu Baishi raised his hand slightly to cover it up, trying not to laugh, and then he bowed and said, "Baishi greets all the gentlemen."

Su Changan bowed and said, "I'm sorry to have come here unexpectedly and disturbed Miss Baishi while she was reading."

Liu Baishi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously turned back to look at the book in front of his window. At this time, the wind blew past, and a page of the book was turned.

Liu Baishi looked at the masked young man with great interest, and some interest became apparent in his heart.

The madam said, "Sir, I have asked the kitchen to prepare the food. I will go to the front to help. If you have any instructions, just ask this girl to call me immediately."

After saying this, the madam bowed and left respectfully.

The madam was curious about who Su Changan was, but she didn't dare to be curious.

After sitting at the table with Liu Baishi, Liu Baishi helped Su Changan pour tea and asked, "I just heard from Madam Wu that the young master came to see Baishi for something. I wonder what it is."

In fact, Liu Baishi asked the question even though he knew the answer. After all, the people who came to see her were just there to drink, listen to music, and watch her dance.

If it were any other time, Liu Baishi would have definitely refused, but Mother Wu said that this person had Lord Li's name tag, so she definitely couldn't refuse. After all, Lord Li had helped her a lot.

only

Liu Baishi looked at what was written on the sign and found it a little funny. Then he looked at Su Changan and was actually a little curious about what the face under the mask looked like and whether it was really good-looking.

But Liu Baishi must not be revealed.

Su Changan got straight to the point and said, "I'm quite interested in the wirework used by the girl when she dances."

When Liu Baishi heard the word "dance", he thought to himself, as expected, it was someone who wanted to see him dance.

But suddenly he was startled and looked at Su Changan in surprise. Was he interested in the wire dance he was doing?

And what is Via?

Su Changan saw Liu Baishi's expression and realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he said, "It's the rope that Miss Baishi used when she was dancing."

Liu Baishi was stunned for a moment and understood the meaning, but...

Not interested in dancing yourself?

Liu Baishi looked at the strange young man in front of him with even more surprise.

The maid Xier over there looked at Su Changan in surprise and thought that this young man was very strange. He was not interested in the young lady, but was interested in a piece of wire?

However, Liu Baishi still said, "That was brought from the Western Regions. If you want it, I can give it to you. Baishi still has a lot of it. When the Persians came here, they gave it to Baishi. But what do you want it for?"

Su Changan heard this and realized it was no wonder that he had asked Su Liheng to ask around at the blacksmith shop. It turned out that iron wire could be made, but there were very few that were so thin and tough. It turned out that they were imported.

But since Liu Baishi has quite a lot here, Su Changan immediately said: "Thank you, young lady. I may need more than 20 meters of it. Of course, for such a valuable item, you can name the price. I can buy it."

Liu Baishi was surprised: "More than twenty meters."

Liu Baishi was even more curious about what this strange young man was going to do with it.

But seeing that Su Changan didn't say it directly, Liu Baishi naturally wouldn't be stupid enough to continue asking, so he said: "More than 20 meters, I bought a lot just in case. And this thing is considered a rare item in our Great Xia, but I heard from the merchant that it is not considered a rare item in Persia, and in recent years this skill has spread in the south, but it has not yet reached our capital, so it is not considered valuable. If you want it, Baishi is willing to give it to you."

After that, Liu Baishi looked at Xier and said, "Xier, go get the 25-meter bright flame wire."

Xier nodded, looked at Su Changan strangely, then turned and left.

I really came here to ask for that thin thread.

Wow, is there really a man who can resist the charm of this lady?

The little maid was filled with surprise.

But since the lady has given the order, of course I have to hurry and get the things, there is no time to delay.

Su Changan was happy when he heard that he could get this length of open flame wire. After all, he didn't expect to get it so easily.

But looking at Liu Baishi, Su Changan continued, "I have another unwelcome request."

Liu Baishi immediately said, "Master, just let me say it. If I can do it, I will naturally do my best to assist."

Su Changan smiled and said, "Can I see the device that Miss White Lion used to hang you when she was dancing that day?"

Liu Baishi was stunned for a moment. She was not the kind of woman who was full of confidence and thought that all men in the world would fall at her feet.

During the previous Mid-Autumn Festival, wasn’t there a couple kissing, but the man didn’t even look at her?

But usually, people who came to see her either came to watch her dancing or wanted to drink with her. Why was this person like this?

Or is it because you are too embarrassed to say it directly, so you keep it like this? ?

After all, it's the same to tell my mother these things, so why should she come to see me specially?

Thinking of this, Liu Baishi felt that the man in front of him must be a thin-skinned young man, otherwise why would he ask for the card of Prime Minister Li to come to him, and then he only wanted the bright fire wire and the mechanism. So after thinking for a while, he said: "Young master, do you want to see Baishi perform the flying dance? If so, Baishi will prepare and can perform for you."

Su Changan shook his head and said, "Miss, you misunderstood. I just came to see the device that hangs you. I will go back after I see it. Miss, your dancing is indeed beautiful, but I will definitely do it next time, definitely next time."

The little maid Xier also came back with a cloth bag at this time, but when she heard Su Changan's words, she was a little surprised, because it was the first time she heard someone reject a young lady like this!

Liu Baishi was also stunned for a moment and looked at Su Changan with a strange expression.

Su Changan saw that Liu Baishi had misunderstood something, so he smiled helplessly, pointed at the sign and said, "Miss Baishi, you misunderstood. I'm not here to have fun. I really just came to buy some of those silk threads and take a look at the device. I need these things for what I'm going to do, so I came here specially."

Liu Baishi glanced at the sign, then looked at the masked young man with an even stranger look.
