Chapter 83 The Pure Gentleman

On the other side, Nianfu was in the car, listening to Aunt Xu talking endlessly about the prosperity of the capital.

It turns out that Pingyang City, this 800-year-old ancient capital, is divided into east, west, south and north, with a total of thirteen city gates. "There are three city gates in the southeast and west. Only the north side near the imperial city has four gates, corresponding to the year."

In the twelfth month, there is an extra gate, but only the royal family is allowed to enter and exit. In this city, there are four major cities, four small cities, and a total of eight markets. Among them, the eight major markets in the southeast, northwest, and northwest are all occupied by big merchants.

Things in big stores are also expensive. Things in the four small markets are much cheaper. For example, the Qinglong pawnshop we met last time is located in Liutiaofang City, one of the four small markets. The one I want to take you to now is the nearest Nanshi.

, the restaurants there are also very good, I usually do business there in the evening. If you can’t negotiate, you can try your luck in a few other cities, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

Nian Fu couldn't help but nodded, "Then these eight major markets should also have different emphasis, right?"

"Of course. The East City has the best antiques, calligraphy and paintings, the West City has the most Hu merchants and jewelry, the North City is the most miscellaneous but has the most complete range of things, and has all kinds of rare things. As for the South City..." Aunt Xu suddenly smiled mysteriously and sold one.

Guanzi, "We'll know when you go there. But your eldest young master has no airs. He would rather walk than follow you out. Don't you..."

Seeing her winking smile, Nianfu knew that she had misunderstood, and quickly corrected his expression, "Don't get me wrong, I'm not actually his maid. I'm also a good citizen, but I'm just a neighbor. I came to Beijing with him to find relatives. He agreed.

My family takes care of me, so they are extra polite."

Is this so? Aunt Xu was a little disappointed in her gossip. But she asked with concern, "Then what kind of relatives are you looking for? Have you found them?"

Nian Fu felt a pain in her heart. Looking at her expression, Aunt Xu knew it and stopped asking.

In just a cup of tea, Nanshi has arrived.

It was getting dark at this time, and all the merchants hung red lanterns high. Some shops even used lanterns to string up huge colorful sheds on the roof of the building in a creative way, just like neon lights. It was very eye-catching.

First I found a restaurant and tried to ask the price, but the cook only wanted one deer and two rabbits, and the price was not high, so he only gave five taels.

Ruan Dahu thought it was pretty good, but Aunt Xu thought it was too low. She said to Nianfu secretly, "If you don't mind, I will take you to a place and I guarantee that the price will be at least 20% higher."

Nianfu still didn't understand it, but suddenly he heard the playful laughter of a girl in a fancy dress in a small building not far ahead, entertaining the guests downstairs. He suddenly understood it.

Aunt Xu finally revealed, "This Nanshi has the largest number of ladies in the whole capital. Every night, the night market here is also the liveliest. The customers are generous and the brothels are willing to buy some novel things. If you don't mind,

Just sell the things and leave after making some money, so what are you afraid of?"

Uh... This recitation of blessings is acceptable. I think her family used to be in the countryside, and the Huai'an cakes were brought to places like this by Mr. Wu to sell on fire? Later, her family suffered a disaster, and those sisters even sent money.

Although the Shi family didn't ask, they knew in their hearts that although these women were engaged in a less-than-glorious industry, they were not monsters or ghosts, so it was okay to read the blessing. But could Ouyang Kang accept it?

Forget it, don't pollute Ouyang Junzi's pure heart. Nianfu secretly discussed with Aunt Xu, "Then let's go and try. I'm afraid it's not easy to talk to them when there are men around. If it works, come back and tell them."

Aunt Xu felt it was reasonable. There were so many beautiful girls in that kind of place that nine out of ten men would faint when they went there. Go there less and you would be less upset.

But who is Young Master Ouyang? As soon as Nianfu's little tail waggled, he realized something was wrong. He tugged on the man's sleeves and stared, "Don't go! Just for a few dollars, you have to go to a place like that.

Not shameless?"

Aunt Xu had heard this with her sharp ears. She was also doing business here, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry, "The people there are no longer human beings? How can they do business without men? When it comes to being shameless, why not?

To teach those big men who study and become officials?"

Ouyang Kang choked, and his ears turned slightly red. He didn't know how to argue with Aunt Xu, so he could only hold on to Nian Fu's sleeve and not let her go anyway.

"Why are you so awkward?" Nianfu glared at him angrily and pulled back his sleeves, "Aunt Xu is right, we are just doing business and will be back soon. Besides, this is not your goods.

It belongs to Brother Ruan. If I sell it for a few more dollars, wouldn't it be possible to solve the problem for him earlier?"

Seeing that he still refused to let go, Nianfu was also annoyed, "You think that if I want to go, it's not your family's fault? You don't want me to go, and I don't care!"

Unexpectedly, when she got angry, Ouyang Kang let go of his hand, his eyes flickered for a long time, and then he said dullly, "Then I should go."

Seeing that he was so unwilling, I felt pity for him. It was really not easy for a pure gentleman to do such a thing. "Don't go, Aunt Xu and I will be back soon."

But Ouyang Kang was very insistent and had to go with him no matter what.

That's okay, anyway, with such a handsome and handsome guy following him, those women would probably feel ashamed and embarrassed to come over.

Ruan and Zheng were left to watch the car, and the three of them first went to a brothel here where Aunt Xu often went to sell snacks. The name was very cultural, called Tianxiang Academy.

When Nianfu glanced around curiously, Ouyang pushed her displeased, "Quickly go, stop looking!"

What's wrong? Nianfu turned his head and realized that although Ouyang had tried his best to keep a low profile, many brothel girls had already noticed this handsome young man. However, he didn't feel ashamed of himself. Instead, he looked like a she-wolf.

With shining eyes like fresh meat, some of them were so passionate that they even walked towards them and wanted to pass by.

But sister, do you want to rub shoulders? Why did you bring those fair and towering breasts up? Oops! Just as he was about to bump into the awe-inspiring and inviolable beauty Ouyang, Nianfu quickly sacrificed his life to block the hole of the gun.

A strong fragrance and a wisp of warmth darkened both faces.

The dark-faced sister snorted coldly, flicked her eyes, twisted her hips and walked away.

The dark-faced Young Master Ouyang brought Nianfu to his side again, as if scolding her for meddling in her own business. However, the look on his face became much better. He followed Aunt Xu quickly and entered the academy. Not long after,

I found the bustard and heard that there was a cart of game for sale. The bustard was quite interested and asked a cook to go out and take a look first.

The cook looked back and said, "The things are okay, but many of them have been injured. It's such a hot day. If they are dead, they will break if they are left overnight. If you want to buy them, you have to buy a few living things."

"

But when Nianfu heard that this was not possible, he said, "If we want to sell, we have to sell them together. If we just pick out the good ones, how will we sell the rest?"

The old bustard said, "Such a cart is really too much. Even though we have many guests here, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat it. Sister, if you let it go again, I'm afraid it will be even harder to sell tomorrow, so why don't we do it now?

Just sell me alive and I'll give you a good price."

Nian Fu was a little reluctant. Aunt Xu wanted to sell the madam a favor, so she encouraged her to nod. "What they said makes sense. Let's sell one house first, and then go to other houses to ask."

Nian Fu was still hesitating, but unexpectedly Ouyang Kang was unwilling.

His willingness to enter this brothel was already considered a great honor, but if he was asked to go to several more, it would really cost him his life. So he didn't say a word and just voted with his feet. He pulled Nianfu's sleeves and walked out.

However, the madam thought that they were deliberately colluding to show off, and was afraid that they would take away the things and boost other businesses' business, so she hurriedly stopped them and gave a compromise, "If you really want to sell, I can also sell them all."

Accept it. But I don’t have enough manpower, so you have to stay and start working on it to finish it all.”

The brothel cook still didn't understand, "Madam boss, we can't eat it even if we make it?"

The madam glared at him and said, "You have no place to speak here! Why don't you get down quickly?"

But Nianfu had already understood. He secretly admired the madam's shrewdness and said with a smile, "The landlady has a good plan. If you can't finish the food in one store, you can always finish it in one street. If there is a hanging in your house tonight,

You may not be able to attract many customers by putting up a unique signboard. When the time comes, you have the final say on how many you want to sell."

Seeing that this little girl had figured out her intentions, the Madam was not polite, "With all due respect, no one can afford your cart of things. Besides, other families may not have a place to cook, but my kitchen is spacious. I don't believe you."

Ask Aunt Xu, if this was not the case, why would she bring you to my house in the first place?"

Aunt Xu quickly cheered and said, "What's rare is that Mrs. Liu is also the best to talk to. I am willing to deal with her."

But Nianfu already had a new idea. He smiled at the madam and said, "Mom, don't be upset. To be honest, I'm only half a cook. But as you said, I'm in a hurry to get my prey, so I want to hurry up."

Take action. Since you are so easy to talk to, why don't we discuss it? I will borrow your kitchen and stove to renovate these things. Of course, I will still sell them from your store. You will set the price, but I want everything that can be sold.

Eighty percent, what do you think?"

Madam Liu was startled when she heard this, "You can do it yourself? Don't be bragging at such a young age, right?"

Nianfu smiled and said, "If I can't sell the goods after bragging, I will still pay you for the charcoal fire and seasonings. You only need to hire a few guys to help and shout, and you can easily earn 20%. This business is not a loss, right? Besides, you can still do it.

Selling wine and food along with it."

Ouyang Kang didn't want to, so he pulled her away and said, "Why do you still want to cook here? How long will it take?"

"Don't worry. There is a curfew on the second watch. I promise to finish it and go back before then." Nianfu patted his shoulder comfortingly, but in exchange for another roll of his eyes from Ouyang, he quickly took a step away, leaving her in vain. So.

There are many people who don’t know what to pay attention to!

"That's good." Seeing Nianfu's confidence, Liu Madam didn't suffer any loss, so she readily agreed.

Immediately asked Ruan Dahu and Zheng Sange to drive the carriage in through the back door, Nianfu rolled up his sleeves and got to work.

Seeing that the deal was concluded, Aunt Xu went to work. Nianfu said kindly, "Auntie, don't sell these things tonight. Come over and help. I'll give you more money."

But Aunt Xu didn't believe it, "I've already made all this, and it will be wasted if I don't sell it. You do yours, and I won't delay."

In this case, Nian Fu didn't say anything more and took out the last silver coin he had to thank her. Aunt Xu saw that there were five coins, so she accepted it with great satisfaction and left.

Then let's get started. Nianfuhao said angrily to Ouyang and Ruan Zheng, "Let's try to make a big profit today!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendation.
