"This door leads to the western suburbs, which are stinking. Going east leads to the city, which is cleaner, but..." He didn't say it out loud, but everyone knew what he meant. After all, those who could survive in the western suburbs had their reasons.
The girl holding the indenture contract gently put down the paper in her hand.
Yes, where can I go with this piece of paper? This world is so chaotic, where can a woman like me find shelter?
One, two, three... The girls who were excited before stepped back and looked at Fang Zhiyi eagerly.
A man who looked obviously older stood up and said, "Master Fang, just say it. The sisters will listen to you. We can make a living anywhere."
Someone echoed: "Yes!"
"At least Master Fang isn't as bad as Dezi and the others!"
"that is!"
Fang Zhiyi signaled them to be quiet, then turned and pointed at the people who had just come in.
"From today on, you have to change your appearance."
The girls were a little confused. A new look?
"This is the master I specially invited, with extensive knowledge of ancient and modern times." He pointed at the old man, who raised his head arrogantly. Fang Zhiyi didn't care. You know, it's not easy to find a master who is willing to teach prostitutes in this era. Fortunately, he found this old man, a perennial child, with high knowledge, but a weird personality. Every time he was rejected, it was because he had too many ideas.
But Fang Zhiyi really likes this kind of rebellious person.
"This is the aunt who will teach you how to dance and play the piano." The woman who had covered her mouth and nose relaxed her brows, waved to the girls, and quickly covered her mouth and nose again. The smell here was really bad.
She was found by Fang Zhiyi from the most famous brothel in the city. In order to redeem her, Fang Zhiyi used some tricks. Also out of sympathy for these prostitutes, the woman agreed to Fang Zhiyi's request. After all, she had no resistance to Fang Zhiyi's deception.
"This is the teacher who teaches you painting and chess." The middle-aged man nodded slightly.
The reason why he was here was simple: Fang Zhiyi gave him money.
Then it was the peddler's turn. The peddler was a little confused, but then he realized that someone beside him was motioning him to put down the things he was carrying. The cloth was opened, and books were neatly stacked inside.
"From today on, you will receive new training in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, reciting poems and composing couplets." Fang Zhiyi's words made the girls open their mouths in amazement. They had never imagined that one day someone would tell them that they could read and write like men.
Fang Zhiyi continued, "From today on, Mianyuefang will not accept any customers. I will not let any of you sell your bodies for money."
"But..." the older woman hesitated, "I don't know anything else."
"yes."
"If we don't take in customers, how will we make money...how will we eat?"
Fang Zhiyi shook his head: "During your early studies, I will provide you with food and clothing, and later I will make career plans for you."
The girls looked at each other, but seeing Fang Zhiyi's serious expression, they finally agreed. At least, they knew Fang Zhiyi's good reputation.
After dealing with the matter of Mianyuefang, Fang Zhiyi left some people to guard it to prevent anyone from causing trouble, and then he went to Yahang without stopping.
A brothel is a place where people are bought and sold. In ancient times, this kind of business was not illegal. Fang Zhiyi only went around twice before leaving. He believed that he had no ability to solve this problem.
In the gambling den, Fang Zhiyi met Liu Acai and the panting Chen Huaimin.
