Chapter 339: The Hero Saves the Beauty(1/6)
What Li Beifeng said is not completely unreasonable.
The teahouse can serve as an important medium for the circulation and dissemination of ancient news, and a considerable part of the reason is the particularity of the teahouse.
When a businessman and knight who came and went from north to south, they sat down to rest, drank a pot of tea, or ordered two pots of wine... Isn't there really a person who thought that the teahouse would not sell wine anymore, right?
The intra-currency business has existed since ancient times.
Because people from all walks of life often gather, the news naturally circulates more than in other places. In this era without any communication equipment, most of the news and rumors in the world still need to be conveyed by these people who have traveled around the world.
Therefore, many times, places like teahouses, restaurants and inns have become the best places for information circulation and transmission.
Of course, in addition to this, there is another place that is easy to be overlooked.
Brothel!
Compared with places like teahouses, restaurants and inns, brothels are more special.
How many people who have been to the world of the world have never been to brothels?
It is no exaggeration to say that most of the people in the martial arts world are basically mingling in brothels, and the road to brothels is probably more familiar than the way they go home.
And the remaining small number of people are very simple, they don’t admit it!
“…”
However, due to the privacy of brothels and brothels do not disclose customers' privacy at will, it is a bit worse than other places.
But, it should not be underestimated!
More importantly, the combination of brothels and teahouses is more than just doubled.
As a well-known brothel in the county town, Qingxianglou has spread its reputation throughout Chaoyang County and even has a place in Nanzhou.
Even the children in the county town know that his father often goes to brothels to mess around, and his mother always goes to brothels to meet the beautiful young lady there...
Qingxianglou's reputation has naturally attracted the yearning of more gentlemen. At the same time, it has also driven the vigorous development of supporting industries in the surrounding areas.
From an economic perspective, the teahouse located opposite the brothel will naturally be affected by the brothel economy.
Just imagine, people from all over the world who come from south to north come to the county town, find a teahouse to rest for a while, have a cup of tea, accumulate energy, and then step into the brothel opposite to strengthen their bodies... Wouldn't it be fun?
Even if it is the other way around, go to the brothel to fight bloody battles first, and go out with the wall in the early morning, and go to the teahouse opposite to drink a cup of health tea to accumulate energy. Isn’t it also beautiful?
...
"Hmph, nonsense, nonsense!"
Shen Qingning sneered at Li Beifeng's remarks.
She glanced at the Qingxiang Tower opposite the tower, and could smell the rich rouge smell from the opposite side from afar. From time to time, some laughter and joy of some clients and women were unbearable to their eyes...
Vulgar, disgusting!
Shen Qingning immediately spat, her pretty face turned slightly red, and she said angrily: "These people... are so shameless!"
She really couldn't understand why those brothel women were so self-deprecating. Are they shameless?
Wouldn't they feel ashamed?
And those who go shopping in brothels...what is there any fun in that kind of place?
Bah bah bah bah bah!
Shen Qingning seemed to have thought of some scene in her mind. She quickly shook her little head hard and threw out all the scenes in her mind.
Then, she stared at Li Beifeng, her little face slightly bulged, and she said angrily: "You are not allowed to go to such a place again in the future!"
"I haven't been there either!"
Li Beifeng spread his hands: "Last time was an accident. Didn't I explain it to you clearly? I am so serious and never go to such places..."
"Pooh……"
Shen Qingning's face turned red again.
Is this guy serious?
Not serious at all!
However, when she heard Li Beifeng's words, she felt much happier.
"By the way, you haven't told me yet, why are you bringing me here?"
Shen Qingning glanced around, with people coming and going, and even a little confused. She really didn't know what Li Beifeng brought her here for.
"Inquiry on information!"
"Inquiry on information?"
The expression on Shen Qingning's face slightly condensed and she blinked her eyes.
"Inquiry...what information?"
"confidential!"
Shen Qingning's interest was immediately aroused: "What secret? Tell me quickly? Do you have something fun to hide from me? Tell me quickly..."
Li Beifeng originally didn't plan to say more, but when he saw Shen Qingning's burning gaze, he looked like you quickly said, is there any secret to hide it from him. He hesitated for a moment and suddenly said, "By the way, you
Have you ever been to Beizhou?"
Shen Qingning blinked blankly: "Is this... secret?"
"No, I'll ask, you answer me first!"
"I... don't know either!"
Shen Qingning thought about it carefully, shook her head and said, "My father has done a lot of business. Logically speaking, there should be one in Beizhou, but it's too far away, I'm not sure... Why did you mention Beizhou?"
Beizhou and Nanzhou, one is north of Dazhao and the other is south of it, thousands of miles apart. In ancient times, when transportation was underdeveloped, this was simply a distance of faraway distance.
"If that's the case, is your father familiar with Beizhou?"
Li Beifeng asked again.
"I don't know this, but if my father had business there, he would have many business partners..."
Shen Qingning felt more and more strange and stared at Li Beifeng: "What are you asking about this?"
"You must have heard of... where is Beizhou?" Li Beifeng thought for a moment and spoke.
Shen Qingning blinked her eyes. Where is Beizhou?
What else can it be?
Isn’t that the former site of Northern Qi?
Although Shen Qingning was not even born when the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, it did not affect her hearing about this. It was just because it was too far away and she didn't take it to heart.
"Does this... have anything to do with the secret you are going to tell?"
"Of course there is!"
Li Beifeng looked at Shen Qingning with a serious expression, looked around and his voice suddenly lowered: "Do you know that when the Northern Qi Dynasty was destroyed, there was a rumor that there was a child living in the Northern Qi Dynasty?"
"I know!"
Shen Qingning's eyes also lit up slightly.
As a girl who yearns for the world of martial arts, Shen Qingning has naturally heard many so-called world of martial arts rumors in her daily life.
There was another royal orphan in Northern Qi that survived, which was not a secret. There were even many rumors in the world, and many people were looking for this child.
However, to this day, the whereabouts of this child have not been found.
"Did you find that child?"
Shen Qingning's breathing became rapid.
Could it be that Li Beifeng actually found that child?
If so, it's too... exciting and fun!
Shen Qingning suddenly became excited.
"No!"
Li Beifeng poured a basin of cold water, instantly calming her down.
"However, I have heard some rumors. So, I need you to do me a favor!"
Shen Qingning was very interested in such a thing. Hearing this, he immediately asked, "What kind of help do I need?"
"Help me find out about your father..."
Li Beifeng paused: "See if he knew any friends from the former Northern Qi royal family..."
...
Night falls.
Li Beifeng, who had been sitting in the teahouse for a long time, found no useful clues.
Although there are many people from the world from the south to the north, few people come from Beizhou. The Beizhou is so far apart, there are not many people who can travel thousands of miles to Nanzhou.
