"The rooms are still separated by wooden boards, but this time more holes need to be dug. The three holes on the top allow the face and hands to be exposed, and a separate hole is dug on the bottom to install the fish cup at the back. This way, no matter how many guests we receive in a day, we won't feel tired."
Lai Gou'er opened his mouth wide, stared at Wu Sheng in disbelief, and said stutteringly:
"It seems even more... even more perverted. Don't you look down on the fish cup?"
Wu Sheng said coldly: "Who are you calling a pervert? Using such a vulgar cup to deceive the poor may seem to solve the urgent problem. But what does it leave behind for men? It is emptiness, inferiority, and confusion!"
"The idea I proposed is a more advanced sensory deception. If I were to open this brothel, my clients would not only be satisfied sensorily, but would also become stronger men psychologically than before! What they get is definitely not just a moment of pleasure, but a new experience that will bring about a richer life!"
Lai Gou'er immediately covered his chest and took two steps back, shocked beyond words.
Are all the brothel owners in Dajing like this now? This doesn't seem like an ordinary brothel owner. Why does he sound a bit idealistic and proud?
Wu Sheng kept saying, "I won't mention this inferior fish cup. I have to admit that the person who came up with this idea had some ideas. But they are too shallow and childish to be tolerated."
"The core of everything in the world is ultimately human beings. Why can't this person think about fish and human beings together?"
Lai Gou'er said in a messy way: "How can a fish and a human be combined? The fish head is only that big, and it's not proportional?"
"Idiot!" Wu Sheng scolded, "Since when can humans be ranked below other creatures? Of course, it's the human head, human body and fish tail!"
"If you sew fish scales into a fish tail, put it on your lower body, and put it in a hot spring pool, the beauty will be shy, the fish tail will swing, the body will be graceful, and the water will sparkle. Isn't this a new and high-end experience?"
"Mei, mermaid?"
Lai Gou'er broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, and even ignored the fact that Wu Sheng scolded him.
This Wu Sheng is so creative! It's a bit mysterious...
"Hey, I thought this trip to the West would give me some inspiration. Oh, it seems I was overthinking after all." Wu Sheng walked slowly with his hands behind his back, "Okay, let's get down to business."
"Given the relationship between Dajing and the church, there is a high possibility that conflicts will break out in the future. In order to facilitate the deployment of large numbers of troops overseas in the future, Marquis Jianye specifically asked me to come here to win over the hearts of the Western upper class and improve Dajing's image. The Red Romance Club and the Golden Music Hall I mentioned to you before are important places."
"However, I thought about it before I came here. Although the Red Romance Club can be used as a starting point, it still failed in the end. I don't plan to spend too much time on it. Although there are many people in the Holy City, it is quite difficult to win over the upper class people from other countries. No matter how good the club is, people will not travel across mountains and seas to the Holy City."
Lai Gou'er hesitated and said, "Then what are you going to do?"
"I need a large ship, and I will modify it to make it as gorgeous as possible! Unlike ordinary pleasure boats, this ship will sail on the sea for a long time and visit various countries. In addition to carefully selecting the people on board, I will also set up shops, restaurants, casinos, theaters, bathhouses, music halls...all the facilities that can be found on land, the ship must have everything."
"We must set a standard that even the most distinguished guests will be reluctant to leave the ship within a month!"
"This ship sails near the coast and will only consider docking when it needs supplies and maintenance. However, the sailing route needs to be carefully planned. I think you should have no problem with modifying the cruise ship and planning the route?"
"It's not too difficult to modify a ship like this, but aren't you too fanciful?" Lai Gou'er grinned, "You think you can win over the upper class with this thing?"
Wu Sheng stopped and looked at Lai Gou'er with a fierce look!
"You say it's a fantasy? I, Wu Sheng, only serve high-end customers and have never failed!"
"Of course, this is a difficult matter for you, but it is just a piece of cake for me. We need to start building momentum before this ship is built. I need you to spread the news and promote this ship as the best sailing ship in the world."
"If you want to board the ship, you must be a noble. If you are a commoner, you cannot enter if your worth is less than 500,000 taels. The price of the ticket is also to make it unattainable for ordinary people. It is divided according to the cabin in the ship, and the cheapest one starts at 1,000 taels."
"After purchasing the boat ticket, except for shopping in the shops, there is no need to spend any more money on food, clothing, and daily necessities. Guests can enjoy the boat to their heart's content and experience the ultimate bliss of life! Dajing's top products and art will be exhibited here, and this place will facilitate transactions between countless high-ranking officials and wealthy people and Dajing!"
Wu Sheng stood with his hands behind his back, looked up and sighed, "I am already old and weak, and this time I am doing this for the sake of the master and the greater good."
"I have decided to personally board the ship and lead the team. This will be the last major undertaking in my life. I am willing to stake my life, all my accumulated achievements and reputation, on fighting for this ship! I had already thought of the name of this ship on the way here."
"What's the name?" Lai Gou'er asked hurriedly.
Wu Sheng closed his eyes and said slowly: "The sea and sky are one color, a feast of bliss. I call it the Sea and Sky Feast*."
Good job!
Lai Gou'er didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Wu Sheng's idea really shocked him, but... it felt too unorthodox! Just based on this?
"But no matter how beautiful and fancy it is, it's just a brothel. Mr. Wu, are you trying to make yourself look good by saying it so seriously? I think you should just run Red Romance honestly. I can take care of you if you stay in the Holy City."
Wu Sheng opened his eyes and looked at Lai Gou'er again, his eyes already filled with endless compassion and sympathy for the mediocre people in this mundane world.
"A mere brothel? It seems you still don't understand. It may seem superficial and dissolute. But hidden underneath is the most profound and unfathomable knowledge in the world."
"Those superficial things can no longer cover my eyes. What you see is just the brothel, but what I see is the most fundamental desire between men and women. It is a great learning and a science. It is the source of beauty, and the driving force of the growth and change of all things is contained in it."
“That desire is like a surging river, flowing in people’s hearts. When this undercurrent deviates from its original goal, it will turn to a new process, and the sublimation of the spirit will begin from then on, and all art and beauty are created from this.”
"And when you understand this fundamental desire, you will master the hearts of people. If you master the hearts of people, nothing is impossible. Do you... understand?"
Lai Gou'er's pupils trembled and he swallowed hard.
Wu Sheng's unhurried words, coupled with his own aura, seemed to be telling some universal truth!
Although he didn't fully understand it, he was shocked!
An absolute master! Such a master seems beyond my imagination.
I am like an elementary school student in front of him!
After hesitating for a long time, Lai Gouer was convinced.
"Master Wu... uh... Master Wu, your opinion!!"
