Jia Yujing of Red Mansion

Chapter 161 The miserable Yang Wan

Chapter 161 The miserable Yang Wanwan
Zuihualou is one of the top ten brothels in the capital. The current top girl, Su Ziyue, was the No.3 oiran in the capital last year.

A meal of fancy wine here would cost at least five taels of silver.

And if you want to meet Su Xingyue to talk about life, you have to pay ten times, starting with 50 taels of silver.

If you still want to hear her play a piece of music, dance, have a glass of wine, etc., you have to pay twice as much.

Such a gold-selling cave, with gold and silver flowing every day, and huge profits, naturally has to have a big shot behind it.

The boss of Zuihua House is Yang Hai, a wealthy businessman in the capital, nicknamed Yang Wanwan.

However, half of the profit from Zuihua Tower ended up in King Zhongshun's pocket.

Of course, Yang Hai gave the money willingly. If it weren't for Zhongshun Prince's Mansion, Zuihua House would have become someone else's property long ago, and he wouldn't be able to earn such a large family fortune.

So three days ago, when Yang Hai saw the notice posted in Chang'an County, he completely regarded it as a joke and didn't take it to heart at all.

Today, he happened to be having a banquet with friends at Zuihua House. He was drinking happily when he suddenly heard a burst of noise coming from outside.

He didn't react at first, until a boy ran in with his face covered to report the news.

"Sorry, sir, I don't know where the government officials came from. They rushed in and said they wanted to close the shop. They are chasing people out from one house to another."

After hearing this, Yang Hai was furious and cursed: "They are so bold that they dare to close my shop.

Tell someone to call them out so that they don't disturb the guests. "

The boy took away his hand covering his face and said, "Master, you guys don't dare, they all carry knives.

Just now I went up and argued a few words. You see, this big mouth slapped me. "

Yang Hai felt that he had lost face and said to his friend: "This is really unreasonable. Brother Zhou, I will go back later."

"Brother Yang, do it yourself."

Yang Hai ran downstairs angrily, just as Jia Qiong walked in from the door with her hands behind her back, looking around with interest.

Zuihua Building is close to the intersection and looks luxurious. Jia Qiong, who has never visited a brothel before, happened to come in and wanted to satisfy her curiosity.

Yang Hai was a little drunk. When he saw a man in official uniform standing there, he rushed up to argue with him.

As a result, as soon as he rushed in front of Jia Qiong, he heard two sharp sounds of drawing a sword.

In the blink of an eye, two Xiuchun knives were already placed on his neck.

Yang Hai felt the stinging pain in his neck, and a chill instantly shot from his tailbone to the sky, causing him to break into a cold sweat, and he immediately woke up from most of the wine.

Only then did he see clearly that Jia Qiong was wearing a bullfighting suit, and there were two guards standing beside him, and the swords of these two guards were on his neck.

The anger in his heart immediately disappeared by nine points, and the words that came to his mouth were stuck in his throat.

Jia Qiong looked at the constipated man in front of her and asked strangely: "Prostitute?"

"..." Yang Hai.

"Mr. Turtle?"

"..." Yang Hai.

Jia Qiong thought the man might have drunk too much, but didn't care.

From this look, he looks like a powerless master, and he can't be an assassin.

He waved his hand to Lou Yi and the others to put away their knives, and ordered: "Throw this mute out."

Yang Hai heard that Jia Qiong asked someone to throw him out and quickly identified himself.

"Sir, wait a minute, my name is Yang Hai, and he is the owner of Zuihua Tower."

At this time, Liu Xian Cheng came up and whispered: "Sir, Yang Hai is a well-known wealthy businessman in the capital. He has many industries and an amazing family fortune. He is nicknamed Yang Wanwan."

Jia Qiong suddenly said: "Oh, it turns out to be Dongzhu Yang, what do you have to say?"

Yang Hai finally regained his composure at this time, and asked: "May I ask what your name is? Why do you want to seal my shop?"

Jia Qiong smiled and said: "I am Jia Qiong, the magistrate of Chang'an County, you should know why I want to seal your shop, right?"

Yang Haixin said that he had never seen such an arrogant county magistrate. If it were normal, he would have scolded him, but he really didn't dare to offend the person in front of him.

The good man didn't want to suffer the immediate loss, so he sent him away first, then went back to Prince Zhongshun's palace to file a complaint.

He hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Jia, how disrespectful and disrespectful.

Why didn't Zuihualou pay the fine?I remember giving the order.

These servants must be lazy, what a bunch of bastards.

Tomorrow, tomorrow morning I will definitely send someone to pay all the fines, and I ask you to be kind to me, sir. "

Jia Qiong smiled and said: "It's easy to talk, I always keep my word.

As soon as Mr. Yang pays all the fines, the Zuihua Building will be unblocked. "

When Yang Hai heard that he wanted to close the shop, he came to his side and whispered: "Master Jia, I am working for Prince Zhongshun's Palace.

Just take a rest for one night. You won’t deny me this little face, right? "Jia Qiong was immediately happy when she heard this, and said to herself that it seems that you don't know about the dirty deeds between me and King Zhongshun.

Since you are working for King Zhongshun, I cannot spare you lightly.

"Dragon Master Yang, even if you invite King Zhongshun here now, this official of Zuihualou will still be sealed.

Don't waste your breath, pay your money quickly. "

Jia Qiong can't get enough oil and salt, and Yang Hai can't do anything.

If Zuihua Building is closed, where will the hundreds of people in this building live?

Moreover, once it is blocked, Zuihualou's reputation will be damaged. Even if it only lasts for one day, the loss will be huge.

He could only accept his fate and said: "In that case, if I pay the money now, I can stop closing the store, right?"

Jia Qiong smiled and said: "Of course, Master Lu, check how many people Zuihualou has bought."

Master Lu took out a ledger, rummaged through it, and quickly replied: "Sir, Zuihualou has purchased a total of 58 women from the Golden Tiger Gang."

Jia Qiong nodded and said: "58 people, each with 600 taels, a total of 800 taels.

This amount of money is just a drop in the bucket to Boss Yang. Please pay it as soon as possible. I still have to go to other places to collect the bill. "

Yang Hai's face turned green when he heard this. Jia Qiong's upper lip touched his lower lip, and the profit of his Zuihualou for two months was gone.

"Master Jia, I heard that each person only needs 300 taels, right?"

"That's the original price. I personally came to the door. Isn't it just a small increase to pay for the hard work?"

Why don't you call it a higher price?Just wait for me!

Yang Hai roared in his heart, but he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction.

"My lord said, please wait a moment, I will send someone to your house to get the money and deliver it to you."

After Yang Hai finished speaking, he was about to leave, but Jia Qiong reached out to stop him.

"Wait a minute."

"Is there any other order, sir?"

Jia Qiong covered her heart and said, "What did you want to do when you rushed in front of me just now, but you scared me so much.

I now have heart palpitations and chest tightness, and I will most likely need to take some medicine to calm down my shock when I go home.

Will Boss Yang also pay for the soup and medicine? "

The veins on Yang Hai's forehead were twitching, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "... Sir, how much does this soup cost?"

"3 million taels."

Ever since he fell into King Zhongshun's lap, Yang Hai had never experienced such cowardice. He finally couldn't bear it anymore and started scolding him directly.

"Jia Qiong, you are going too far! This is simply blackmail. I am going to the Metropolitan Procuratorate to sue you!"

Jia Qiong carelessly picked out his ears and said: "Yang Hai just attempted to assassinate me. I suspect that he and the Golden Tiger Gang are not only involved in human trafficking, but also have other connections.

Lou Yi sent him to Beizhen Fusi for severe interrogation. "

"It's an adult."

Lou Yi immediately stepped forward, grabbed Yang Hai and started to leave, which scared him to the point of peeing.

In a place like Beizhen Fusi, if you go in, you will have to shed your skin even if you don't die.

He struggled and shouted: "Sir, please forgive me. I drank too much and was talking nonsense just now. Please don't take offense."

I am willing to pay, and I am willing to pay for the [-] decoction and medicine. Please let me go. "

Jia Qiong waved Lou Yi's hand to stop, picked his ears and eyes and said, "Hey, that's right.

But why can’t I hear clearly with my ears? It seems that I was shocked by you just now.

Mr. Yang, what do you say? "

Yang Hai quickly said: "I accept the compensation, I accept the compensation, you can tell me how much the compensation will be."

Jia Qiong asked him: "Just now, including the fine and the cost of soup and medicine, how much money was it in total?"

"Sixty-four thousand, eight hundred taels."

"Then make it all up."

"Yes, here I am..."

"10 million taels."

"...?"

Everyone looked at Yang Hai with deep sympathy in their eyes.
