Traveling across the heavens starting from the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 25 Preparations Before Opening

"Okay, now that everything is said and done."

"It's a rare trip today. I'll take you two for a walk in Dongshi. I'll prepare some rouge and gouache for you. I'll also prepare some necessary supplies for your home."

Li Huaian looked at the two beauties in his arms.

After inspecting the progress of the shop, the shop's clerk problem was solved.

Therefore, I planned to reward Li Ruoqiu and the maidservant with some peach blossoms and accompany them to visit the East Market.

"Really?"

"Thank you Langjun."

When she heard that she was going to visit the East Market, Li Ruoqiu was a little excited. She stood up from Li Huaian's arms and made a blessing to express her inner joy.

Even the maid Taohua who was still in her arms showed happiness.

"Then go."

Li Huaian waved his hand, stood up and took the two women out of the pavilion.

Before leaving the shop.

I said a few words to Old Wu who was supervising the work, and also gave some instructions to the craftsmen working to pay attention to safety and not to hurt themselves.

Then he took the carriage with Li Ruoqiu and his maid Taohua and blended into the bustle of the East City.

"Mr. Lang, let's go to this shop and have a look."

"Mr. Lang, how about this box of rouge? Will it look good if I use it?"

"Mr. Lang, look there quickly. There is a sideshow. I want to see it."

The two girls were very active looking at the various sights in the East City, the stalls on both sides of the street, and the shops selling various things. They felt that they were very interested in every stall and shop, and they wanted to stop and take a look. I want to visit every shop and join in the fun.

Although for Li Ruoqiu and her maid Taohua, they often came to Dongshi when they lived in a brothel.

I am already familiar with many shops in Dongshi.

Dongshi and Pingkangfang are only separated by a road, and the two are adjacent. The brothel girls in Pingkangfang, when they have free time on weekdays, often bring their maids to Dongshi for shopping and shopping. For some things that you need to use, go to a familiar store to buy some private items.

However, today's visit to the East Market was very different for Li Ruoqiu and her maid Taohua.
This is the first time for the two women to visit the East Market as women who are not brothels. Standing in the East Market, the two women feel a different kind of freedom and joy.

nowadays.

The hair accessories on the two women's heads are no longer the same as before. They are no longer the hair accessories in the brothel. The clothes on their bodies are no longer the same as in the brothel.

The way they dress up tells everyone around them that they are two women from good families.

Curfew is approaching.

Li Huaian took Li Ruoqiu, who was still unsatisfied, and his maid Taohua home, and took the carriage back to the stable through the back door without entering the house through the front door.

Stop the carriage.

Then he unhooked the horse from the carriage and tied it to the stable to feed him fodder.

Li Ruoqiu and her maid Taohua got off the carriage and came to Li Huaian's side, Wan Fu said.

"Mr. Lang, Nujia and Taohua are so happy today."

"Thank you, Mr. Lang, for your mercy today."

"This slave also thanks you for your mercy."

what happened today.

For the two girls, it was a great blessing that the husband was able to accompany them to the East Market for almost a day, and he never complained once.

This made the two women feel how could they meet such a husband.

They don't mind their identities as brothel girls.

Being willing to accompany these two women to wander around the East Market is something that a real man would never do.

Li Ruoqiu knew it.

Even for the ladies who live in deep residences and compounds in Chang'an City, if they want their husbands to accompany them to go shopping in the market, that is a rare thing.

Not to mention spending the whole day with him.

Those ladies didn't even dare to think about it.

To this
Li Huaian didn't feel much at all. He was just going shopping with his woman.

In modern society, this is not something Stone is accustomed to.

That man, when he was in love, never went shopping or shopping with his girlfriend.

As long as the reward is enough at night.

These are just minor problems.

After feeding the fodder, I filled the water tank with some water.

Li Huaian stretched out his hands, hugged the two women beside him, and said with a smile: "You guys need to be well prepared for that night, otherwise I will be angry."

"Lang Jun."

Li Ruoqiu was a little emotional, and her body became softer and softer.

see.

Li Huaian laughed.

From the stables to the yard.

Passing by four large vats where potatoes were grown, the maid Taohua glanced at the four vats out of habit, wanting to see how the potatoes were growing in the vats.

"Mr. Sir, the potatoes seem to have broken the ground."

"Really?"

Hearing this, Li Ruoqiu quickly left Li Huaian's arms and came to the side of the four large tanks. When she saw that the potatoes in one of the large tanks had really grown out of the ground as the maid Taohua said.

He immediately looked happily at Li Huaian who was following him.

"Lang Jun, these potatoes have really sprouted."

I looked at the other three large tanks and was surprised to find that all of them had grown as well.

"Lang Jun, the potatoes in the other three large vats have also grown out of the soil."

"Fortunately, the slave family didn't destroy Lang Jun's potatoes."

"It really sprouted."

"Otherwise, the slave family won't know how to explain to Mr. Lang."

Li Ruoqiu patted her chest, looking very lucky.

It's been two days.

These four jars of potatoes are finally alive.

It grew out of the soil.

It feels completely reassuring.

The potato sprouts in the tank finally grew out of the soil.

Li Huaian didn't pay much attention to it. After taking a look at the potato seedlings in the big vat, he said calmly: "It's okay. If it doesn't grow, I want to dig up the soil to see if it's really dead." .”

Although he didn't know how many days it would take for normal potato seeds to grow into seedlings when planted in the soil.

but.

Taking the potato seeds that he brought to the Tang Dynasty to have sprouted, it should not take more than a few days from planting to sprouting. Three or four days is enough.Now it only took two days for the seedlings to grow, which was also expected.

Otherwise, he would not have brought such sprouted potatoes from the main world to the Tang Dynasty world in order to ensure success as much as possible.

After a while, Li Ruoqiu and her maid Taohua looked at the potato seedlings that had grown.

Li Huaian urged the two women to quickly prepare hot water and have a good rest after washing.

In ancient times, there was basically no nightlife. The only nightlife that made people linger was probably the joy between the sheets.

And Li Huaian was just enjoying himself.

Tireless.

After several days.

In addition to enjoying the service of two beauties at home, Li Huaian would go to the shop's construction site to check on the progress and live a leisurely life.

The same is true for Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua.

Occasionally, I would accompany Li Huaian to take a look at the shop, and take a stroll in Dongshi. The rest of the time, I would spend the rest of the time looking at the four pots of potato seedlings that were growing taller and taller in the yard.

Of course.

During this period, Li Ruoqiu did not forget what Li Huaian ordered her to do.

Just prepare female waiters for the shop.

During this period.

In the name of Li Huaian, Li Ruoqiu and her maid Taohua often visited the brothel in Pingkangfang, wandered around the hooks, and negotiated many contracts with the madams in the brothel about purchasing female prostitutes.

For a time, Li Ruoqiu was more popular than men in the flower house.

A total of [-] yuan was spent.

120 female prostitutes were bought from the brothel Chuguan in Pingkangfang and used as female waiters in the shop.

The reason why I buy so much.

Just like what Li Ruoqiu said at the beginning, among the 120 female prostitutes purchased from the Hualou Madam, 50 were half-sold and half-given. They no longer had any value to the Madam. The women abandoned by the Hualou prostitute.

in fact.

To Li Huaian, the female prostitutes who had been abandoned by the flower house were not old and young, and they were not yet undesirable. Among the female prostitutes he bought, the oldest among them was only a young girl. 35 years old.

In modern society, this age is the stage when a woman exudes her most charm.

only.

Limited to differences in times.

At this age, in ancient times, it had already reached the point where the flowers and willows were in ruins and became the discarded items of the flower house.

After all, in ancient times, people who could afford to spend money to visit flower houses were a group of people with certain financial resources. If you find such decayed flowers and willows to keep you company in flower houses, people around you will think you have some special hobby. Is the family in ruins?

Because most people who like this kind of female prostitutes are those poor people who can only find secret prostitutes. This kind of like is just because they are cheap, only a few copper coins per visit.

Poor people can afford to pay for such female prostitutes.

Of course.

The premise of buying this kind of female prostitute who was abandoned by the flower house.

The madam must ensure that these unwanted female prostitutes in the flower house do not have any infectious diseases, which are the common infectious diseases in the flower house.

If you have this kind of disease, it is not among the purchasing targets.

Simultaneously.

Li Huaian also ordered Li Ruoqiu to ask doctors to diagnose and treat all the female prostitutes he bought. Even those female prostitutes who spent money normally had to be examined before they could sign the sales contract.

Bought 120 female prostitutes.

The shop has not yet been completed, and there is no room to house these 120 female prostitutes at the moment. It is not safe to find a place to rent temporarily.

In addition, these 120 female prostitutes need to be re-employed before they start working, so as to eliminate some of the old habits of these female prostitutes in the flower house.

If there is no training, if these female prostitutes still retain the habit of the flower house, they will habitually stick to the customers whenever they come to the shop.

It's okay for male patrons, but it's always not good for female patrons to behave like this.

then.

Li Huaian simply went to a dental shop and bought all the four houses next to his own house in Xinghuafang for three thousand guan.

As long as the five houses are opened and connected to the upper courtyard wall, the entire house can be expanded, and there will be enough space for these female prostitutes to live, as well as a place for training.

The most important thing is that the courtyard is no longer deserted with only Li Huaian, Li Ruoqiu, and the maid Taohua. There is a lot more people in the courtyard, even if this popularity is full of different fragrances of makeup and powder.

Simultaneously.

The house where Li Huaian lived in Chang'an City in the Tang Dynasty increased from more than 400 square meters to a large mansion of more than 3000 square meters because of the four houses he bought.

Until the renovation project of the shop is nearing completion.

Li Huaian was holding a bag of things that he had just bought from some Taoist priests in Chang'an today. He was standing in a specially tidied up empty courtyard in his family's house and looked at the two Yingyingyan who were standing neatly in the courtyard. Yan's team began to test the effect of Li Ruoqiu's training during this period.

"Mr. Lang, this group of older people, with only 50 people, are the maidservants that the slave family plans to use as shop assistants. The other group of people, who are only in their teens, with 70 people, are the maids who are staying in the house. The maids who are used in the business can also be temporarily sent to the shop to work as female waiters when the shop is busy."

Li Ruoqiu finished introducing the two formations.

Then he introduced in a low voice to Li Huaian the team of maids who would be kept in the house.

"These maidservants were all bought by the slave family at a fair price by taking the opportunity of taking in those poor people whom the Madam of Hualou didn't want."

"All of these maids are beauties specially cultivated by the madam according to the needs of the flower house. Some of them are trained according to the standards of competing for the oiran,"

"the most important is."

Li Ruoqiu breathed softly into Li Huaian's ear and said: "These maids we bought are all girls who have not left the palace. If the husband likes any of them, he can use them at will."

"You're playing with fire."

Li Huaian put an arm around Li Ruoqiu next to him, looked at the smiling beauty in his arms, and said angrily: "Aren't you afraid that one of you will replace you after being favored?"

"As long as the husband is willing, the slave family will abdicate the throne and make way for the worthy, find a Taoist temple to become a monk, and wait in the Taoist temple for the husband to favor the slave family."

Li Ruoqiu pretended to be aggrieved and said, "Besides, I'm looking for some people to serve you because I'm afraid that your husband will only be served by Nujia and Taohua. As time goes by, your husband will get bored."

"Furthermore, it is the duty of the slave family to find a beauty for the husband. The slave family cannot indulge in the favor because of the husband's affection, and lose the duty of the slave family."

Li Huaian was a little speechless when he heard this and didn't know what to say. What Li Ruoqiu did seemed to be part of the role of women in ancient times in running a house.

Then he looked at the maid Taohua on the side.

"Taohua thinks so too?"

The maid Taohua Wanfu said: "Slave naturally has the same idea as the young lady."

Don't wait for Li Huaian to speak again.

Li Ruoqiu said: "Mr. Lang, in fact, there is another thing. Now our house is so big. If we only have Nujia and Taohua, we can't take care of it. With these maids here, we can take care of the house better." Something on.”

This is true.

From a house to a mansion, if the number of people in the home is not increased, it will need a lot of people to take care of it, and it will look very empty.

Li Huaian accepted the days of flowers and flowers in the future, looked at Li Ruoqiu and the maid Taohua and said, "In this case, these maids will be managed by you and Taohua from now on."

"The slave family knows that Mr. Lang is a person who doesn't like trouble."
