Chapter 204 Go to the brothel to recruit management talents

"The east wind blows thousands of trees and flowers into bloom at night. Even more, it blows down and the stars are like rain. When writing about the Lantern Festival in ancient and modern times, this poem by the Xin family should be the most respected."

"The dragon in poetry has a well-deserved reputation, but if Mr. Xin had not been born in the Song Dynasty, but in the Han and Tang Dynasties, he would have become a general whose name will go down in history. The rise of poetry is the sorrow of the general."

Although it is the Lantern Festival and the weather is still cold, the elegant room in Dengke Building is warm.

The top ten oirans in the Dengke Building are all as beautiful as flowers, with snow-white skin, graceful bodies, sweet voices, and slender waists twisting, revealing a hint of snow-white. They are really beautiful.

If all the people present were ten years older, the scene would probably be unsightly.

But now, he is very elegant.

For example, Zhuge Ran was discussing poetry with an oiran.

"Sir, you are indeed knowledgeable. The Nu family only knows poetry, but not these things." Li Qing'er, the oiran who accompanied Zhuge Ran, smiled with a look of admiration on his face.

"It's just a moment of emotion. Miss Li's poetry is of great attainment, and it's even better." Zhuge Ran said.

"The Nu family is just proficient in pen and ink, how can it compare with Master Zhuge? He was born in a noble family and has been loyal for generations." Li Qing'er said quickly.

"Good is good, bad is bad. This has nothing to do with our background, but I want to ask you for advice." Zhuge Ran said with a humble smile.

However, the status of merchants, farmers, industry and commerce is nominally the fourth.

Feeling sad in his heart, Li Qing'er smiled brighter on his face and complimented Zhuge Ran with words.

He also had a sudden idea.

The upper-class gentry mainly wants to have both. On the surface, it is a clear family, farming and studying, but in fact, business interests also have a hand in it. They just let the people below do it and hide behind the scenes. After all, who would be dissatisfied with too much money? Ah, and without a backend, how could it be possible to make a lot of money?

"It's free for you. It's great to have it. It's so exciting. Go next door by yourself."

Unfortunately, the Zhuge family does not accept concubines.

There were so many people here, and he was the one having the most fun.

But, just like this group of people, after taking the money, still say on the surface that they "treat money like dirt". I don't love money.

Lu Shang shook his head in shock, then turned to look at Ji Ren, who had an equally bad reputation before, and suddenly found that Ji Ren was settling accounts with them.

"You are playing so casually. If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come out to play with you." Lu Shang said with disgust on his face, holding a pretty beauty in his arms.

No wonder Dad likes to do this.

Zhang Jingshou rested on the plump thighs of a beautiful woman, opened his mouth, and someone fed grapes into his mouth. He bit down quickly and bit the beautiful lady's green and thin fingers. The beautiful lady made a sound, her face turned crimson and she was slightly shy. .

Looking at Zhuge Ran's sincere smile, Li Qing'er's heart trembled. In his early years, he heard that there was an oiran. When he went to the Taoist temple to offer incense, he accidentally met the young prime minister. After just one meeting, he thought about it day and night. He thought it was just a legend. But now that I think about it, like a son, like a father, if he is like Zhuge Ran, I am afraid he will never forget it for the rest of his life.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingshou even sighed, what a happy life.

If it were just him, it would be an Uncensored Conference now.

If the Chamber of Commerce wants to develop and become bigger and stronger, it needs educated scholars.

"Ah~" Lu Shang said with a shocked look on his face, you come to the brothel to play with this for me?
"What's the matter? If our chamber of commerce wants to become bigger and stronger, we need educated people to come in. Look, aren't all of them very educated? They are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting. It's a good thing that you are a girl, otherwise you would have participated As for the imperial examination, let alone the examination, it is not impossible to become a Jinshi." Ji Ren said earnestly.

"Hey, hey, hey, what are you doing?" Lu Shang wondered.

"It's an interview for recruitment." Ji Ren said without turning around.

As for a group of stupid people who really have nothing and are still full of "student popularity", they really look down on the Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce is somewhat lacking in this area.

But after coming to the brothel today, Ji Ren felt that he could find another way.

You must know that the literary quality of these courtesan is not low. After all, if it is just beauty, it will be rejected, and there will be no spiritual resonance, and there will be no topic to talk with these guests.

Therefore, oirans specialize in both talents, especially those in Dengke House, who are proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting.

If you take part in the imperial examination, it's hard to say whether you will be a Jinshi, but if you are a candidate, it's really not a big problem.

You can buy it directly and then work in the Chamber of Commerce.

From this perspective, Ji Ren made a profit. After all, even though Da Qi was not Da Song, not even Ji Ren could do such a thing as openly buying a person as a slave.

But just change the form.

"So you're just going to buy it back to the Chamber of Commerce? Then we'll be in the Chamber of Commerce, tsk tsk." Lu Shang looked like a city man.

When the girls heard Lu Shang's words, they glanced at Ji Ren shyly, and then quickly lowered their heads. Their faces were so delicate and charming that people couldn't help but notice them.

Apparently they and Lu Shang wanted to go together, and Ji Ren now was not the Ji Ren before. Being able to be with Ji Ren, even if he had no fame or status, was better than staying here all his life.

"Don't think too much. This is work, a serious job. If you dare to cause trouble in the Chamber of Commerce, I will break your legs." Ji Ren said.

"Ha~ Ji Ren, you are getting more and more arrogant now. Do you think that after I lost to you, I just stood still and didn't continue to work hard? Let me tell you, if we fight again now, who will win and who will lose? I don’t know.” Lu Shanghu stood up with a face on his face.

"I have made a breakthrough again, now I am at the peak of the sun." Ji Ren looked at Lu Shang and smiled and said, "Say it again."

Lu Shang's expression suddenly changed, and he immediately smiled and said: "Don't worry, brother, I will do what you said without any discount."

Damn it, I couldn't beat him in the bright moon realm before, but now it's dawn, how can I beat him?

How did this guy practice?
Have you reached this level of cultivation so quickly?

And Weiyuan Bo Mansion probably doesn’t have many resources.

Could it be that it was really Qiao Qingyin who threw it?

Lu Shang, who originally came here just for fun, now really wanted to ask Qiao Qingyin to come over and throw him downstairs.

"Okay, you guys can think about it seriously. If you come to our business and receive preferential treatment, pass the assessment, and make meritorious service, then the deed of betrayal can be returned to you. The Zhuge family can prove it." Ji Ren said As he spoke, he looked at several courtesans who had successfully applied.

"You really want us to do business? Uncle Qing Yong, is this okay with our status?" Du Lingyue, the older of the oirans, looked at Ji Rendao with some suspicion.

There are only a few kinds of futures for courtesans like them. If they are lucky, they will be married as concubines when they are popular. If they are unlucky, they will be divorced early, and then serve others with sex, and then wait until they grow old and lose their lust. At that time, it disappeared inexplicably.

Never had a way of doing business?
And let the oiran do business, will your business be serious?
"There's nothing wrong with you, businessmen. You're smart and have a good sense of what's going on. You're all obviously smart and good at watching what's going on. Of course, it's up to you whether you want this opportunity or not. There's no force." Ji Ren said, if you don't know these things If so, these oirans cannot become oirans.

After all, if you don't know how to play music, chess, calligraphy and painting, you won't be able to become a famous prostitute. You can only be called a prostitute. If you don't know how to watch your words and emotions, you will be beaten to death early.

Hearing that Ji Ren actually gave them a chance to choose, all the oirans looked at each other. Their identities were actually quite subtle. They were backed by the Dengke Building and were sought after by thousands of people. Not to mention poor scholars, even officials of the fourth and fifth grades, they were all He can show off his face, but in front of the real powerful people, he can only be regarded as a plaything. But now Ji Ren can still give them a chance to choose, and a feeling of respect arises spontaneously.

After a long while, Du Lingyue said: "Uncle Qing Yong, it's not that we doubt you, but it's not easy to redeem us. The people behind Dengke Building are not simple. It's no problem for you to redeem one or two, but if you redeem them together, , it’s really difficult.”

"What's the background? The one who fights alone is the background. Who do you think is behind Dengke Building? If you don't give me face, I will go to their house to find them!" Zhang Jingshou said with a proud face when he heard this.

"Speaking of which, do you know who is behind Dengke House?" Lu Shang asked curiously. As the number one brothel in Chang'an, it is impossible to say that Dengke House has no background. However, over the years, no one knows who the specific background is. .

"Although we look good, our boss won't really tell us these things." Du Lingyue looked confused.

"However, I often see many people with different identities coming, including people from the Lu family, the Gu family, and even the Yuan family who come to see our boss." An oiran said as she wanted to leave.

"The Lu family of Wu County, the Gu family of Wu County, and the Yuan family of Runan?" Ji Ren was a little surprised when he heard this. He had never thought that there were so many forces behind a single admission building.

Everyone talked about passing down poems and books to their families, and ended up opening a brothel.

Sure enough, it's all bullshit.

"It's them, there's no mistaking it." The oiran who spoke timidly said.

"touch~"

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside, and a biting chill enveloped them.

"Where is Jiren?"

A cold voice suddenly sounded.

Although he didn't do anything, Ji Ren's body subconsciously went cold, and then he straightened his back. Why are you so scared? Don't be a coward.

The rest of the people's eyes lit up, are we finally going to start?
A group of people looked around numbly, planning to choose a suitable way to be thrown away. However, when they looked outside, they found that there were soldiers from the patrol battalion. Guan He took the lead in guarding. Their eyes changed even more. This time Is it such a big deal?

In the Dengke Building, a middle-aged man who was also leaning against the red and green trees noticed this scene, and his expression changed slightly. Did the Prime Minister take action in advance?
Didn't you say that you should still monitor it first?
And the expression of the seventh master of the Lu family, who had just come in, changed drastically. What happened?
