Chapter 79 Leaving the City

The reason why it is said that rituals and music collapsed in the late Ming Dynasty can also be seen from the identity of the woman in the flower field.

It turns out that most of the people who work in this business are women from Le family, who have been from lowly households for generations. The typical representative is the Qinhuai Old Courtyard in Nanjing City.

But in recent decades, due to various reasons, a large number of good families have continued to pour into this industry, such as the former Five Money Girl.

In order to distinguish them from official households, those from good families are called "self-employed".

All in all, a woman who goes into the water is not necessarily a happy person, and a happy person does not necessarily have to go into the water.

Of course, to customers, it doesn't matter whether you are government-operated or self-operated.

However, Bai Meiren's household registration is originally a happy registration, which is registered in the county government's ceremonial room, and the restrictions on her status are slightly greater.

But because of this, Xu Yuanjing, the general manager of the school book office, invested a lot of resources, so Bai Mei won the top spot in the last flower list.

Of course, these resource investments are not free, but must be rewarded, otherwise it will be a huge loss.

In a sense, Manager Xu plays the role of an old bustard in Bai Meiren's place.

This is why after hearing that Beauty Bai visited Professor Lin late at night, Manager Xu didn't even bother to put on his shoes and ran over to stop her at the risk of being beaten to death.

It has nothing to do with worldliness, this is the spirit of business. Prostitutes love beauty, and madams love money. This is the eternal truth.

Manager Xu didn't want to fall out with Professor Lin, and said firmly: "The school book office will definitely repay your kindness to Bai Ji. But one code must be one code, and the rules cannot be violated."

Lin Tailai immediately laughed and said: "Mr. Xu, look at you like this, you look like Zhu Yingtai's father in Butterfly Lovers, Lao Fahai in The Legend of White Snake, and the Jade Emperor in The Match of the Immortals!"

Mr. Xu dares to be angry but dare not speak out. As long as it does not harm the interests, you, Professor Lin, can insult him casually. This is the business spirit!

Feng Shike looked at both sides and advised: "This is a critical moment for my life and death. Let me resolve my anxiety first! We will discuss the matter between you in the long run!"

Since Manager Xu arrived, Bai Meiren, who had lost the right to speak, suddenly spoke:

"Did Mr. Xu misunderstand something? The slave family just wants to hire Professor Lin to protect the slave family when they go out."

Manager Xu said very vigilantly: "There has been no big danger recently, so why send Professor Lin?"

Oiran's personal bodyguard? Don't even think about it!

This time, Mr. Feng jumped out and said to Beauty Bai: "Professor Lin will be out of the city for a few days and will not be able to protect you for the time being!"

Speaking of which, it seems that Bai Meiren has no choice but to leave.

After that, Feng Shike advised Lin Tailai: "Bai Ji can win the Oiran, she is not just stupid and sweet.

Her thoughts are also very complicated, so don’t get too obsessed with her, it’s not a good thing to get stuck in it.”

"Whether she has complicated thoughts or simple thoughts, what does it have to do with me now?" Lin Tailai asked in surprise.

Feng Shike said doubtfully: "Why are you only eighteen years old? Did you lie about your age? I look like you are thirty-eight!"

Professor Lin, who is always eighteen years old, doesn't like to hear this. "It's already late at night. Mr. Feng, please come back."

Before leaving, Feng Shike said: "I will be responsible for hiring a boat, and it will be a big boat. Please go to Tai Lake for a few days and set off tomorrow."

Then he reminded: "I advise you, a young man, to take care of yourself. Be virtuous and don't attack the old leader again."

Lin Tailai muttered: "You said this with a Songjiang Prefecture accent, which is not authentic enough."

Then Lin Tailai asked again: "Do you believe me so much? Don't you send someone to monitor me?"

Feng Shike sighed: "The heroes of ancient times still had a promise worth a thousand gold, how can today's cloth be inferior to that of the ancients? I believe in you."

This kind of trust moved Professor Lin very much until he boarded the ship at the back pier of the school library the next day and saw Qi Jiguang and Qi Shaobao in the cabin.

"Why are you here?" Professor Lin felt frightened.

If there is anyone in Suzhou who can make Professor Lin avoid him, there is probably only one Qi Shaobao.

Upon hearing Lin Tailai's inquiry, Qi Shaobao said calmly: "I also live in Gusuyi and met Songjiang Feng Shike at Wang Danzhou.

Then I heard that Feng Shike was very familiar with you, so we had a few words in private."

Professor Lin kept complaining in his heart, how could Mr. Feng Er, such a big mouth, talk about anything?

After the boat sails, it first sails to the canal. Then it goes south along the canal. When it reaches Hengxukou, it turns west and goes straight to Taihu Lake.

Qi Shaobao brought four bodyguards, and Professor Lin brought the left and right bodyguards. If it was just a short trip of thirty or forty miles, a large boat would be enough.

But Qi Shaobao did not mention learning marksmanship, and first said: "I heard that you want to enter the literary world?

But you have directly hated Wang Danzhou, I’m afraid things won’t go well in the future.”

"So what?" Lin Tailai said angrily.

Qi Shaobao seduced him and said, "I may be able to help you get around. If Wang Danzhou still doesn't work, I can introduce you to Wang Boyu."

The Wang Boyu mentioned by Qi Jiguang is Wang Daokun, another literary giant of the same generation as Wang Shizhen and the leader of the Xin'an Poetry School in Huizhou.

He had an extremely close relationship with Qi Jiguang, and even in history, he wrote Qi Jiguang's epitaph.

I won’t go into details, just use one sentence to describe it:

If a literati today was suppressed and ostracized by Wang Shizhen and wanted to continue to work in the literary world, only Wang Daokun could protect him.

Lin Tailai chuckled a few times, "Did the old hero have any misunderstandings?

I, Lin Tailai, took this boat out of the city not because I was afraid of any literary leaders, but because I wanted to give Mr. Feng the face!

I don’t want to hinder Master Feng’s wish to become one of the new five sons because of myself, although this wish is ridiculous in my eyes!"

Qi Jiguang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly he felt a bit of the spirit of young people from Lin Tailai, who actually said that he was not afraid of the old alliance leader at all.

Perhaps because he was a little resentful about being forced to leave the city, Professor Lin still felt a little aggrieved, and his tone gradually became harsher without realizing it:

"And if I, Lin Tailai, want to enter the literary world, no one can stop me, not even the literary leaders!

The trend of the times is overwhelming. How can a retro sect, who is like a dead bone in a grave, stop me, Lin Tailai?

Do those stereotyped people who only know how to worship the ancients know what the theory of nature and spirit is, do they know what the theory of Shen Yun is, and do they know what the theory of texture is?

These writers who only know how to copy a few allusions can write that life is just like "

Qi Shaobao also laughed and jokingly said, "That's not true. Why did you fight like this because you didn't want to learn marksmanship?

I'm just a retired veteran, not a figure in the literary world, so it's useless for you to pretend to talk to me."

Lin Tailai: "."

Qi Shaobao is indeed a martial arts master who is proficient in the art of war. He can make Professor Lin's momentum invisible with just one move!

"Learn, learn, learn!" Lin Tailai said helplessly: "Although firearms will become more and more important in the future, it only takes a few days to learn a big gun.

Maybe in a few years, I can go into battle to kill the enemy, kill a few Japanese pirates with my own hands, and assassinate a few old slaves who established the chiefdom!"

Hearing the sentence "Firearms are becoming more and more important", Qi Shaobao appreciated Professor Lin even more.

But one of the guards was dissatisfied and interjected: "General Qi has wiped out the smoke and cleared the sea. Where did the large group of Japanese pirates come from and let you go into battle!"

Although small groups of pirates are unavoidable nowadays, to say that there are still large-scale Japanese pirates that reach battle formation level, doesn’t that slander Qi Shaobao’s achievements?

Lin Tailai was rude to a mere guard and scolded: "You know nothing!

The Japanese country is unified internally and there are not enough heroes to divide the land and land, so we must use all the strength of the country to fight externally!"

Qi Shaobao once again lamented that this man's knowledge is absolutely extraordinary, it would be a pity to join the literary world!

At this time, a boat was approaching and a man with a green turban on the bow shouted: "Is there Professor Lin on the boat next to me? Mr. Feng is footing the bill! A beautiful escort has been arranged!"

So another boat plan was set up here, and the two beauties on the boat were brought over. Qi Shaobao and Professor Lin each got one.

"The slave is Sun Lian Lian, who is number 11 on the flower list in this city."

Upon hearing the eleventh ranking, Lin Tailai said sympathetically: "That's really miserable."

Sun Lianlian also replied aggrievedly: "Those gentlemen all said that the slave's father-in-law is too demonic and not elegant enough."

The boat had traveled an unknown number of miles, and when Professor Lin was about to have an in-depth exchange with Sun Meiren, he suddenly heard the boatman outside shouting: "It seems something has happened on the shore, and there is going to be a fight!"

The spring sun is shining brightly, and all the cabins are open and transparent, giving a clear view of the outside.

Lin Tailai turned around and saw dozens of people crowded together on the shore. It seemed that one group of people was surrounding another group of people.

There was originally nothing to pay attention to. As a backbone of the community who was used to seeing group fights, Lin Tailai didn't think this was worth making a fuss about.

But he suddenly saw that there were seven or eight people from two sides facing each other a little further away from the largest group of people on the shore.

And there are eye-catching beauties among both parties!

On one side is the five-money girl, and on the other side is Lady Fan from Heyi Hall!

Professor Lin was immediately shocked, as if something big had happened?
