Chapter 170: Please
Lin Shuning was stunned. She had only seen eyes like this on the third prince, Prince Chen.
Could it be that Prince Chen helped her?
But based on his personality, he would never help anyone for no reason. Could it be that he recognized her?
Thinking of this, Lin Shuning felt that something was even more wrong. If this was true, why would he help her?
She frowned and looked at the purse in Ye Mu's hand, with a thoughtful look in her eyes.
"Miss Third, it's better not to use the money and return it another day," Ye Mu said with a serious expression. She recognized the guard driving the carriage, "It's better not to have anything to do with this Prince."
Lin Shuning nodded. She thought so too. She was about to put away her purse and continue selling her medicine when she saw that the entrance of Zui Sheng Lou, which had just been surrounded by a group of people, was now empty and the two gatekeepers looked like they were getting ready to close the shop.
"What's going on? Why did they all leave?" Lin Shuning asked in surprise.
"What on earth are you doing here? How come you don't even know this? This Zuishenglou not only has limited business hours, but also a time limit for admission. There should be less than half an incense stick of time left. If you miss today, you will have to wait a few more days."
A kind-hearted person passing by looked at the two of them suspiciously, with disdain evident in his eyes.
Look at how ignorant they are, it's obvious that they have never been to Zui Sheng Lou.
He was dressed up like a decent person, but wasn't he still inferior to him? After all, he was also a person who had been there once and gained more experience.
"what?!"
Lin Shuning didn't want to wait even a moment. She snatched the purse from Ye Mu's hand and hurriedly chased after him: "Wait!"
Ye Mu gritted his teeth, pointed at Lin Shuning's waist and chased after her.
"Money, ticket money, we have it... here you go!" Lin Shuning panted and stuffed his purse into the servant's hand.
The servant staggered and muttered, "You really got together. All right, go in. I kindly advise you not to wander around without money, otherwise you will not be able to pay and have to cut off your hands and feet to pay off your debts."
"Got it." Lin Shuning agreed and walked in with Ye Mu.
As soon as you step into the hall, a complex aroma mixed with the fragrance of powder, wine and tea hits you in the face. The guests sit around a table filled with dishes, waves of laughter rise and fall, and their eyes occasionally look towards the stage, as if they are expecting something.
Lin Shuning observed carefully, and just as he and Ye Mu found an inconspicuous place to sit down, their vision became dark.
Then, a bright white light lit up on the dim stage, and a woman with a snake-like waist appeared, revealing a tight, snow-white belly. She was wearing a golden flowing long skirt and a crimson bodice inlaid with pearls. Her breasts were as white as snow, full and raised, and she was gorgeous with a primitive and seductive wildness.
She slowly descended from the flying petals, with a charming smile on her face, as if waiting for the guests to reach out and pick them at any time.
Many men immediately stretched out their hands to grab her obsessively, but the enchanting woman gave a sweet giggle, and the moment they were about to touch her, she immediately turned over, and rose up as lightly as a swallow flying into the forest, flying through the water and skimming the waves, and with a few taps of her toes, she spun up to the top of the human tower with golden rings flashing.
Music and cheers sounded together, cups and plates were clinking, and an atmosphere of luxury and indulgence was everywhere. Someone took out a banknote from his pocket and threw it onto the stage like scattering paper. Seeing this, others followed suit.
Soon, the stage was filled with all kinds of gold, silver, and precious stones.
Lin Shuning was watching intently when a charming voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
"Sir, I see you haven't thrown a gift yet, are you planning to give our girl a big one?"
The pungent smell of powder instantly made Lin Shuning sneeze several times. She rubbed her nose and looked up, meeting a pair of charming eyes. Then she saw that the eyes lit up, revealing surprise and excitement.
Just like a brothel owner who sees a beautiful woman and wants to trick her into working as a brothel to make money, Lin Shuning's appearance at this moment also shocked her immediately. She was really a perfect material for a prostitute.
Lin Shuning felt uncomfortable being stared at by her, but he remained expressionless. He thought to himself, how come even sitting here and watching a show requires money?
Seeing that she didn't say anything, the visitor covered her mouth with her handkerchief and laughed: "Young master, you are new here, you don't know the rules here.
In our Zuishenglou, everything you drink, taste, and watch costs money. Of course, there is no fixed price. How much you give depends entirely on your heart."
She paused and said with a smile: "Let me introduce myself. I am the host of this place. You can call me Yu Niang."
OP?
It should be the existence of Mama-san.
Lin Shuning looked her up and down, a little surprised.
This Yu Niang looks to be only in her early thirties, but she can actually run such a well-known brothel on her own. She really should not be underestimated.
However, this was a bit too cruel. According to what she had just said, she was just short of saying that even breathing required money. It turned out that the boy really did not lie to her. The forty taels of silver were really just the price for two tickets.
But... Lin Shuning's eyes flashed.
Since this Yu Niang is the owner of the post, she must know where the person she is looking for is.
To get the information you want to know from a person, the most critical starting point is to get closer to her and win her favor.
So, what is the best way to please businessmen?
Of course, it was spent money.
Lin Shuning smiled. She didn't have any money now, but she had a lot of things that were more valuable than money.
She smiled lightly and took out two small and exquisite white porcelain jade bottles from her sleeves: "Of course, this is what I gave to the dancers. If you throw it on the stage, it will break."
"what is this?"
Yu Niang frowned.
The appearance of the host immediately attracted many people to look over here. When they saw what Lin Shuning was holding, someone immediately exclaimed: "This is a miracle drug! This miracle drug is sold by Liufangtang, the largest medical clinic in the capital. One bottle costs one hundred taels of silver!"
"One hundred taels of silver is not expensive. The most difficult part is that it is limited in quantity and needs to be snatched up. Those who get it are selling it at a premium. Now it's as high as three hundred taels of silver per bottle!
Oh, no, that's the Qingxin Pill that was sold before. It's a magical medicine for clearing away heat and nourishing the body. It's sold out recently. If you want to buy it, you have to add another 500 taels to the original price. Even with this amount, you may not be able to buy it! Who is this person who is so generous! "
Although most of the guests sitting on the first floor watching the show had the financial resources to spend lavishly, they were reluctant to spend a thousand taels on rewarding the dancers.
Even though they threw up a lot of silver notes, the values were not large. They were just for face, not to mention those jewellery of average quality.
After all, this money has to be saved to buy the soft and fragrant jade for the evening.
Therefore, when Lin Shuning's two bottles of magical medicine with a market value of one thousand taels appeared, they immediately caused a sensation in the audience.
At that moment, some people even offered a sky-high price of 1,500 taels to ask Yu Niang to buy medicine.
Yu Niang's frown had long since relaxed, and she quickly put the two bottles of magic medicine into her arms, with a look of joy in her eyes and eyebrows: "This young master is really generous. It is Yu Niang's blessing that Zui Sheng Lou can welcome a distinguished guest like you. Why don't you follow Yu Niang upstairs to take a look?"
