There were not many people left for interviews, so Li Mu was by her side and accompanied her for an interview. When the interviewers saw Li Mu, they became more and more nervous and couldn't even say clearly. They had no choice but to lose the election one by one.

Although the recruitment advertisement was published, in this era, there are still a few women who dare to work from home and can work from home. Among them, even fewer people meet the recruitment requirements. Feng Qiuhuang needs young and beautiful women who know the text and write, and can write and calculate. This is determined by the nature of the industry. In Li Mu's previous life, there were no ugly and fat salesmen who bought cosmetics.

It was easy to find such people in the previous life, but it was very difficult to find in the Tang Dynasty.

For ordinary people, men have no books to study, let alone women? A woman who meets the requirements must at least be a "small jasper". How can a woman who can achieve "small jasper" come out to work?

The Jiaofangsi mentioned by Lee Ji-en is an exception.

Although Jiaofangsi is a place where people are entertained, there are many female relatives of criminals. The families of ordinary prisoners are not qualified to enter Jiaofangsi. These women lived a good life and received a good education before their relatives committed the crime, which was very consistent with Feng Qiuhuang's recruitment standards.

For example, the four maids of Zhulu Marquis' Mansion are all born like this. The four maids of Meilan, Bamboo and Ju can all be written and calculated.

Li Mu is now an order of the treasury, which can be said to be tying the money pockets of the various responsibilities in the palace. Even if he doesn't go to Li Shimin, he will find the manager of the Jiaofangsi by himself, and it will be easy to ask for a few people. Moreover, the Jiaofangsi has a system, and the ministers in the court can use money to buy maids according to their rank. In Chang'an City, two officials even fought for a prostitute, which became a topic of conversation after dinner.

But Li Mu would not do this. He has a beautiful wife at home. He is not as hungry as he goes to Jiafangsi to look for flowers and willows. Besides, he is a troublemaker. He either doesn’t move, or he has to make it bigger if he wants to move. His vision is not only on a few salesmen, but he wants the entire Jiafangsi.

He has always been dissatisfied with the existence of "official prostitutes". What are official prostitutes? Just a fig leaf. Because the court stipulates that ministers should not enter private brothels. So what should I do if ministers have certain special needs? Official prostitutes came into being.

According to legend, the origin of official prostitutes was during the reign of Emperor Wu of Han. In ancient times, prostitutes were called official maids, also called official slaves. Emperor Wu of Han established camp prostitutes, which was the beginning of official slaves. Later, dynasties emphasized literature and over military military, and camp prostitutes gradually decreased and approached none. Instead, the Jiaofangsi, which was used for officials to entertain and enjoy, flourished.

The original intention of the Jiaofangsi Department is to set up a place to retain relatives of criminals. Because officials commit crimes, relatives also benefit more, and it is natural for them to work to forgive their crimes. Therefore, it is called "Jiaofang".

However, the high price of raising these people forced the court to compromise, and the work became a "die" and an official brothel selling dog meat with sheep's heads on it.

The name of the official prostitute was originally a mockery. But over time, it became a noun without praise and criticism and was accepted by the public. After the Han Dynasty, some monarchs were suspicious of officials and monitored them through the official prostitutes of the Jiaofangsi, so the Jiaofangsi also served as half of the intelligence department.

The Jiaofangsi of the Tang Dynasty also serves as a hostage prisoners. The Jiaofangsi was so large that it exceeded 10,000 people at its highest level. When there were too many people, it could not be raised in the palace. It even imitated the Western Market and held auctions. In short, when it entered the Jiaofangsi, people were not humans, but slaves. They had no human rights. The descendants of women from the Jiaofangsi were also slaves and had no inheritance rights.

Li Mu couldn't stand Jiaofangsi, and the initial cause was still due to Xiaozhu and others' experiences. But this was only one aspect, and the other aspect was that he couldn't stand the hypocritical faces of these people who came and left Jiaofangsi.

You just have sex with a fig leaf? Why do you do it? Because you are a prostitute, you are not gentle and disgraceful?

Now the Ministry of Works is employed, and the Jiaofang Department now supports thousands of people. The Jiaofang Department of Works is all added together, and there may be many. If these people are liberated, it will definitely be a big help to the reform of the Ministry of Works. Because they have characteristics that ordinary craftsmen do not have, they can read!

But Li Mu did not exaggerate it. He really thought that he was invincible in the world and could completely eliminate the official prostitute system that had been passed down for thousands of years. Even if he could do it, I am afraid that some of the official prostitutes in the Jiaofangsi would not agree.

People in the world say that the fate of official prostitutes is tragic, but they have not explained it clearly. Most of their tragic fate is after people get old and deteriorated. Before that, their lives were quite comfortable. Official prostitutes also need money. Official prostitutes who can hire officials must be rich in their families. Can they live a bad life if they are so good to hook up with a few such lovers?

Moreover, the difference between official prostitutes and folk brothel women is that most of the people who look for official prostitutes are not for physical needs, but for spiritual needs, or are genius. In order to cater to the needs of these people, many official prostitutes practice piano, chess, calligraphy and painting hard, so that they can excel in the Jiaofangsi and be sought after by everyone.

Simply put, the competition within the Jiaofangsi is also very fierce. It is roughly equivalent to the entertainment industry in Li Mu's previous life, which makes it understand why these official prostitutes are unwilling to "become a good person". In Li Mu's previous life, even if they were eighteenth-line foot washing maids, if you ask her if she would like to return to the life of an ordinary person, she would probably roll her eyes and curse her in her heart.

There are some truths, which have been like this throughout history, and there is no difference.

What Li Mu wanted to do was to separate these people. If he wanted to continue to be an official prostitute, she would continue to be an official prostitute. But the slight difference was that he wanted to significantly increase the charges for official prostitutes. Can't these officials be arty? Then take the money. If the money is less, you should hold it in and watch others play with the woman you like.

This is called stimulating consumption.

"Master, what are you laughing at?"

"Ah?" Li Mu woke up from his imagination and saw that the people in front of him had dispersed and the interview had ended. Li Zhien looked at him strangely, looking worried.

"Do I laugh?"

Li Zhien nodded and said, "Master laughed so scaryly, and he kept muttering, "Let me not play you to death...Master, who are you going to harm again?"

"What do you mean!" Li Mu pinched Li Zhien's face and said, "I am just shining with light, looking up at the heavens and earth, and having a clear conscience. Those who provoke me are bad people. If I play them to death, I will do the same for the heavens. How can I use the word "disaster"? Pay attention in the future."

The little girl laughed, squeezed into Li Mu's arms, and said in a slight voice: "The master is right, Zhien Zhizhi is wrong."

"Be good." Li Mu glanced at the left and right, and saw that no one was there, he stretched his hand into Li Zhien's neckline, and then rubbed it. The little girl's face turned red to the base of her neck and softened into Li Mu's arms.

"Master, please ask me, Zhien can't wait."

"Be reserved." Li Mu pulled out his hand, and smelled it gently with the fragrance of Li Zhien's body, and said, "I'm testing you. It's such a big girl. Why are you so unsustainable? You still have to practice."

"Master is bad--"

Li Zhien grabbed Li Mu's clothes and wanted to ask for a kiss. At this moment, Zhang Tianai's voice sounded and said, "What are you doing in broad daylight? You are not afraid of being seen."

Li Zhien looked up at her, but was not afraid, and said, "Master, don't you love me? Don't think I can't see it. When you come, you must have-"

"No!" Li Zhien denied it and loudly decided: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense, I don't have it!"

"Haha, did you cheat others and cheat me?" Li Zhien pointed to the corner of Li Mu's lips, and it was impossible to investigate. There was a little rouge left: "What is this? Fourth concubine, my good sister, the method of applying rouge, but I just taught you yesterday. I gave it to you. Will I not recognize it?"

"I..." Zhang Tianai was so angry that he refuted, and blushed. He walked over and took Li Zhien's hand and said softly: "Good sister, please keep it confidential. Don't let Qiaoqiao know."

Li Mu listened strangely and said, "You are all my wives, why do you have to keep each other behind your back?"

"What do you know?" Zhang Tianai said angrily. "I have such a good relationship with Qiaoqiao, but now I have snatched his husband. If you prefer me again, Qiaoqiao will feel so uncomfortable when she knows it, I will feel sorry for her."

"Oh——" Li Mu suddenly realized, saying, "It would be better if I don't touch you from now on, it's all about your sisterhood."

"No!" Zhang Tianai blurted out, and after saying that, her cheeks became redder, and she muttered in a low voice: "No..."

Li Mu laughed: "This is not good, that is not good either, you women," he was about to tease him, but suddenly saw Bai Qiaoqiao coming over, shut up quickly, put Li Zhien down from his arms, and looked serious.

Seeing this, Zhang Tianai snorted and said, "Smelling man."

But I didn't dare to say anything, for fear that Bai Qiaoqiao would see it.

"Husband, Manager Cheng from the horse farm is here."

"Oh, I asked someone to find him, so I'll go see him now." After that, Li Mu got up and went to the front yard. Bai Qiaoqiao looked at the two sisters and frowned strangely: "Why are your faces so red?"

"No, no, wind, wind blows!" Zhang Tianai was extremely nervous and ran away casually.

Li Zhien didn't explain, but just laughed. Seeing this, Bai Qiaoqiao understood, her cheeks turned red, and she said angrily, "The annoying husband is really getting more and more unable to control it."

"Madam--" Li Zhien hurriedly took Bai Qiaoqiao's hand and acted coquettishly. Bai Qiaoqiao had no choice but to do anything to her. She and Li Zhien even slept on the same bed, how could they get angry?

"Okay, I don't mean to blame you. Let's go, clear the account, and wait for my husband to go home together."

"Yeah!" Li Zhien nodded and went to count the accounts with Bai Qiaoqiao.

After Li Mu finished his explanation with Cheng Qian, he gave him the charter and drawings together, and then returned to the backyard to meet with his wives and concubines, and walked home in the sunset.
