Dream Breaks One Day - C114
In the spring, March was as natural as a young girl’s makeup. As the weather warmed up, people began to take off their heavy winter jackets and put on their bright and beautiful spring outfits. Every year at this time, something new would always happen in the capital. It was as if they had to endure the cold winter and struggle to cater to this long-lost and precious spring color. And this year, there were a few strange brothel boat parked by the most prosperous river in the capital. The people who passed by all stopped there to watch the commotion.
The brothel boat s were not small, and their decorations were exquisite, with early spring apricot flowers on them. It seemed to imply that the beautiful spring lady was living on the boat.
Although the boat suddenly appeared on the river overnight, the people who had seen the world were no strangers to this sort of scene. The boat was filled with flowers and the workmanship was extremely exquisite. The ship was divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower. The first floor appeared to be a small winery, while the second and third floors were surrounded by flowers, seemingly divided into many small rooms. This was the brothel boat in the capital. Actually, the brothel on the ship …
This was not the first time such a brothel boat had appeared in the capital, so everyone was naturally aware of it. Although the brothel’s reputation didn’t sound good, it was still able to attract many citizens to watch it. And there are all kinds of people. He was a young scholar, a carefree scoundrel, a simple passerby, a child with soy sauce, and even an old man selling vegetables … In short, any man who passed by would be willing to stand there foolishly. He hoped to see the makeup of the boat in the brothel boat Tower before it opened.
Therefore, there was a song in Beijing about how the capital’s spring brothel boat opened, making it difficult for a son to find a home. The family was troubled. and go to the river and look for… It meant that starting from spring, the brothel boat would come at this time, making all the men stop to watch and forget to go home. So countless women with feather dusters went to the river to catch their husbands or children…
The sight of the banner also became a grand occasion in the capital. It’s even more lively than a market…
But it was not the fault of the men who stopped to watch the fun, it was the flower boat that got more and more eye-catching every year. The original owner of the flower boat was only a bawd in the capital. He had lost his business and his brothel had been mortgaged to the bank. But she refused to give up. In the second year, she actually bought a small boat and let her daughter stay in it to attract guests. In order to attract the men who passed by, the girls suddenly had the idea of tying the spring flowers on the boat, but they didn’t expect the business to be so good … The old procuress received quite a bit of silver and quickly redeemed the brothel she had already mortgaged …
And this actually became a model that other brothels followed one after the other. After all, the scenery on the river was better. Using the light of the mountains and rivers to get the girl to sing poems and urge the guests to drink on the lake, the effect was surprisingly good … The customer was also very straightforward about paying …
Gradually, it became a tradition. Almost every brothel had their own boat. In the spring. Summer is easy to flood, autumn flowers have almost withered, winter river surface ice. So this spring is a good time for the pleasure boat to do business. and through years of experience. The more carefully the brothel boat worked, the more flowers piled up on top of it. It was as if they could continue the good times of spring…
The brothels were also secretly competing with each other. He secretly compared whose boat was the prettiest and had the most customers this year. The sweet taste in the girl’s mouth…
Therefore, every spring, brothel boat that had been resting for nearly a year would carry all kinds of famous flowers and girls, and would unsteadily float to the bustling river bank of the capital. There were many cases where several brothel boats happened to be gathered together. Now there was going to be a good show to watch …
The girls who were usually smeared with makeup would fight over each other’s guests on their brothel boat s. If one was lucky, one would be able to see them bickering in a soft voice. The people who watched were so serious that they fell into the river…
Although there were a lot of people watching, the people entering the ship were either nobles or rich and powerful nobles. There is only one reason… brothel boat was a boat after all, and they stood out amongst all the brothel boat for the sake of being able to compete for glory. The bawd and the girls did their best to … He piled all kinds of nice looking items on the boat. Seats are exquisite and precious. Add all kinds of small thoughts and small decorations, a boat will be tossed like a floating in the river like a building. and piled up so many flowers… Make the ship too heavy to carry too many people.
And how could he make a brothel boat that he had spent a lot of money to create achieve her greatest benefit?
The answer was obvious. Price Filter Customer…
Some old men sighed. One boat, ten buildings. It described the outrageous prices of the brothel boat s’ wine and food. The price of eating a meal on a brothel boat could be 10 meals in an ordinary restaurant. After the prices had been filtered out, naturally only the young masters of wealthy families or wealthy families could enjoy themselves in the brothel boat s.
Therefore, although there were a lot of people watching the show every year when the brothel boat sailed, the majority of them were just watching. After all, the boat maiden was the leader of every brothel. In order to reap the rewards from the brothel boat, he had to do his best to dress himself properly.
There’s no one who doesn’t love beauties…
And every year, the brothel boat would set sail and it would be as lively as a festival. The principle of the brothel boat was to lure guests onto the boat, and then arrange the girls to accompany the wine according to the customer’s preference. It was similar to the business in the brothels, but there were some differences.
The girls in the brothel were always standing on Lou Lan, greeting the guests below. They were all dressed beautifully, hoping that more people would enter the brothel after seeing their beauty.
On the other hand, the brothel boat was different. Since the guest being targeted was only a rich guest, the girl was naturally also extremely expensive. If a brothel could be said to recruit guests with a lady, then the brothel boat would be known to use flowers to recruit guests.
The lady lived in the building day in and day out, but she didn’t easily show her face. Only after the guest had entered the boat did the door open to welcome the guest. Thus, before the guest entered the boat, he did not know the appearance of the girl in the boat. It was as if he knew that there was a beauty in the building, but had to enter the building to be able to see her. That feeling was naturally extremely wonderful and made one’s heart itch with jealousy.
The surrounding onlookers naturally wouldn’t see the lady coming out to recruit guests. Only when the beauty opened the small window in the boat and drank with the guests would they be able to see which lady it was. The business model of carrying the lute in such a way was extremely successful. Not only were the guests in the building satisfied, but they also attracted more spectators.
The more mysterious it was, the more attractive it was.
There were three brothel boat s parked on the busiest bronze bridge by the river this year. They were Spring Brothel, Fragrant Storey, and the Na Hong Yuan Family’s three boats. The two boats were not much different from previous years. From the deck to the upper floors, all the open spaces were filled with flowers. Various colors. The flowers that can be found in the spring are all piled up here.
The first floor and second floor were not much different from the Fragrant Storey and the Na Hong Yuan School. They were all piled together in a variety of colors, such as welcoming flowers, primrose flowers, fragrant incense, camellia, magnolia, jasmine, cuckoo, peony, cloves, tulips, and cyclamen … All kinds of things happened, leaving everyone dazzled. However, the third layer on top was special. It was filled with pink apricot flowers. Some of the apricot flowers were planted in pots on the boat, while others were plucked from tree branches and leaves. The boat was densely packed with apricot flowers, giving off a beautiful pink glow. It made people wonder if she had collected half of the apricot flowers in the capital …
“Why are there so many apricots? This boat is dressed so prettily, what is it going to do? ” He could not be considered good-looking, but he had a bit of a delicate and pretty appearance.
The people beside him looked at him as if they were looking at a ghost, unable to believe that there was actually such an idiot who didn’t even know about the annual Spring brothel boat … However, seeing his worn out appearance, he seemed to have traveled a long way. His clothes were not the usual attire of the people in the capital. Furthermore, carrying a bamboo frame on his back, it seemed like this was the first time he had come to the capital to take the Imperial Examinations. It was enough to understand why he didn’t even know this.
Someone at the side immediately teased him, “You don’t know, right? Let me tell you, the person staying there is Fairy Apricot Flower!”
That person had only been teasing them, but when the surrounding people heard his words, they also began to discuss amongst themselves.
“Isn’t that so? It’s all a hundred flowers fighting, but it’s an almond flower fighting, that’s all.”
“But no one has ever heard of a girl in Spring Brothel who likes apricot flowers?”
“Probably new. Letting the old procuress spend such a huge sum of money is definitely not an ordinary beauty. I wonder if someone like me would be fortunate enough to see it. ”
“It’s not necessarily true that she is as beautiful as an immortal. Maybe it’s just a gimmick. The old procuress just wants to make a surprise victory …”
“Yeah, yeah. Last year, there was a bawd from the Immortal-Painting Hall. She said that the girls on her boat were all goddesses that had descended to the mortal world, and not ordinary people … This made Young Master Li, who was not very wealthy at the edge of the city, envious. “He clearly can’t even compare to a normal street girl …”
“Tsk tsk, but taking this step is also dangerous. Once I ruin my reputation, it will be difficult for me to do business in the future …” Look at that painting of the Immortal Tower this year, you know that they offended guests last year, and it seems that no brothel boat appeared this year! ”
Everyone’s discussion was especially lively. The young man who had initially come to watch the show did not understand. However, that brothel boat was tied up very nicely, and although everyone was talking about a lady or fairy, he did not see a single one …
His name was Yin Ci, and before entering the capital, his father had said that he wanted to see more and speak less. Ever since he was young, his father had scolded him for his stupidity, so he could only be more obedient. He told his father not to be angry. Thus, although he was the stupidest amongst the brothers, he was the most obedient and also the one who read the best books.
He muttered softly to himself. He had only heard that fairies lived in the heavens. So it turned out that the fairies from the capital lived on boats. This was quite a rare sight …
As the crowd surged, his little doubts were drowned in the crowd as soon as they left his mouth …
