Song Mingyue

Chapter 128 Zongzhenghui ([-]rd watch arrives)
Within a few days, "Heaven and Earth" has caused a sensation in the entire Bianliang City.

The brothel, which integrates literature and art, health care, and general health care, undoubtedly leads the fashion and trend of brothel culture in this era, making those who love health care flock to it.

The cheongsam, silk stockings and high-heeled shoes created by Zhao Hao led the trend of brothel clothing.

Even the seventh son of the Cai family was full of praise, lingering and forgetting to leave, undoubtedly gave Zhao Hao a big publicity, and made countless rich sons come here admiringly.

For a time, there was a constant flow of traffic in front of the gate of "Heaven and Earth".

Especially in the first half month of opening, there were queues for general health care almost every day.

In the beginning, it was just some rich sons, playboys, rich businessmen, and some officials below the fifth rank who came to visit, and later even a lot of high-ranking officials above the third rank came.

Even a super scholar like Zhou Bangyan secretly came to experience the joys of "heaven and earth" after hearing about them.

Zhou Bangyan was already 62 years old, and as a member of the Dasheng Mansion, he could no longer wield a big sword. However, the melody and dance performance of the lady in the cheongsam amazed him greatly. The technique of massage makes him feel refreshed and energetic.

That night, Zhou Bangyan, who had passed his sixtieth year, stayed in the "heaven and earth" for the night, not for love and moon, but for health care. Although he didn't take off his clothes, he slept peacefully until dawn and couldn't bear to get up.

That night was the most peaceful and solid sleep that Zhou Bangyan had ever slept in half his life...

During the Song Dynasty, sex with prostitutes was neither advocated nor prohibited.With Zhou Bangyan's propaganda, those officials who love sex and moon also disguised themselves and secretly went to the "heaven and earth" to have a good time.

The booming business made Zhao Hao a lot of money.The daily turnover is more than [-] guan. Excluding various expenses, the net income is also more than [-] guan.It has to be said that healthcare is indeed a hugely profitable industry, as it has been in ancient and modern times, so it is like a wild fire that never burns out, and spring wind blows and regenerates.

If this trend continues, it will only take one month for Zhao Hao to return his capital and make a slight surplus. After a year, it will not be a problem to earn 30 to [-] yuan. He can live a happy life without the support of Jiangnan's parents at all. .As for the generous salary of the imperial court, it is almost negligible.

But Zhao Hao's purpose is obviously not here. Opening a brothel to make a lot of money doesn't mean much to him. Everything is just to lure a snake out of the hole... It can be regarded as leading a dragon out of the hole.

He didn't know which day Zhao Ji would visit "Heaven and Earth", but he knew that unless Zhao Ji changed his gender, he would definitely come to "Heaven and Earth".And his rule that each person is limited to one domestic slave is definitely not suitable for Zhao Ji, the Ninth Five-Year Supreme.

The dignified emperor, even if he came to the health care department, he had to search in advance, and he had to bring a few big insiders and a few personal servants with him, otherwise, if the assassin wanted to assassinate him, wouldn't it be easy?Therefore, if Zhao Ji came to "Heaven and Earth", there must be rumors first, so that he would not be caught off guard.

However, what frustrates him is that "Heaven and Earth" has been open for half a month. Not only did Zhao Ji not visit his brothel, he even seldom came to Yanglou Street. Miss Shi secretly entered the palace.

Zhao Hao waited on the couch for half a month, but he finally got bored and didn't want to go to "Heaven and Earth" to check in every day, leaving Liang Hongyu alone to guard against chaos.

As the children of Zhao Hao's clan, ordinary people would not dare to make trouble. After all, although the clan's children cannot hold the real power in the court, they have many privileges.Ordinary yamen can't question the clan's crimes at all, even if it is a big chief minister, he has to ask the emperor to ask for a crime, so the general scumbags, dandies, etc., who dare to provoke the clan's children, are simply courting death, even if you are killed on the spot, you You can only admit that you are unlucky.

However, under the Son of Heaven, there are not only powerful figures in the clan, but Zhao Hao is also not the only one in the clan.There are thousands of people like him who have been related to the official family for seven times.

Nowadays, the business is booming, the money is making money every day, and I am not familiar with the place where I live, so it is inevitable that people will be jealous and make trouble.Leaving Liang Hongyu, the heroine of the female high school, guarding, I felt a lot more at ease.

"Liang Hongyu, strength 88, intelligence 84, leadership 92, politics 52, host favorability 75, host loyalty 78."

A generation of heroines, if not a daughter, is a He Heliang general, but because of his time travel, he missed Han Shizhong, and now he is only reduced to guarding a brothel for him, but after all, he is much better than being a camp prostitute. People look at it now.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Hao had just finished his breakfast, and was about to take Fang Baihua and the others out for a stroll, by the way, to see if there was any movement on the side of "Heaven and Earth", when the old butler hurried over and handed him a post.

Zhao Hao took the post and read it hastily, with a look of suspicion on his face.

Zhao Yue, son of the clan, has a banquet in Fanlou tonight.

Since Zhao Zhongshu left Bianliang that year, the branch they left behind in the south of the Yangtze River has seldom interacted with the clan. They only send [-] birthday outlines to the officials as a rule before their birthdays every year.If it weren't for the generous birthday schedule, the officials would have almost forgotten that there is such a clan, and as for the children of other clans, there is almost no contact... Anyway, this is the first time for Zhao Hao.

Since Zhao Hao entered Bianliang, after registering under the Zhongshumen, and later registering at the Zongzheng Temple, he has never contacted the clan again.

Even if he was in Zongzheng Temple that day, he came out in less than a stick of incense. He didn't even finish a bowl of tea. The man in charge of registration didn't seem to be interested in him. There are already over a thousand disciples of Qifu's clan in Bianliang City, which is extremely common.

Unexpectedly, suddenly, someone invited him to drink tea, and he went to Fanlou, one of the most prestigious buildings in Bianliang, which surprised Zhao Hao.

After some inquiries, Zhao Hao found out the details of Zhao Yue.

Zhao Guangyi gave birth to Zhao Yuanyan, Zhao Yuanyan gave birth to Zhao Yunliang, and Zhao Yunliang gave birth to Zhao Zongjiang.Zhao Zongjiang gave birth to Zhao Zhongyi, Zhao Zhongyi gave birth to Zhao Xiaoliang, and Zhao Xiaoliang gave birth to Zhao Yue.

Going around, this Zhao Yue, like Zhao Hao, is also a son of the clan who has been with the official family in Qifu, and now he has just passed the weak crown year, and is currently the presiding officer of the Dazong Zhengsi.

Dazong Zhengsi is the highest institution that manages the affairs of the imperial clan, and the rank of the chief priest of Daizong Zhengsi is naturally different from that of ordinary chief ministers, which is the rank of the seventh rank.The descendants of the clan who were in the same year as Zhao Yue, and those who were not in the third service with the official family, most of them served as the records of the eighth rank, the military, the soldiers, the cavalry and other sanitation officers. Zhao Yue can also be regarded as the clan outside the three clothes The best of the sons.

As for the sudden meeting with Zhao Hao tonight, whether it is because of sympathy or for other purposes, it is not important to Zhao Hao.

If you can make friends, make friends.If the other party's intentions are wrong... For a man who wants to become the emperor of the Song Dynasty, it is like an ant to him.

Among the 72 main stores in Tokyo, Fanlou is the most famous. Many love stories recorded in Song Dynasty scripts happened in Fanlou.Fanlou is also called Fenglelou and Baifanlou. On the top floor, you can "look down into the forbidden area" and see inside the palace.This is probably unprecedented.

Fan Lou is also very large. According to Zhou Mi's "Qi Dong Ye Yu", Fan Lou "is the best wine shop in the capital, and there are often more than 1000 drinkers" and can receive more than [-] guests.A Song poem said: "I remember the joys of youth, and I went to Fanlou with lights late at night." It is also known that Fanlou is open all night long.

In front of the restaurant, square wood and various patterns are tied to form a tall and beautiful colorful building.The red and green decoration on the edge of the window near the facade is called Huanmen.In addition, there are decorative fences called branches and several gardenia lamps pasted with gold and red gauze in front of the gate.

Under the guard of Fang Baihua and Zhao Dian, Zhao Hao walked in proudly.

Entering the gate, there are more than a hundred steps to the main corridor. The two corridors of the north and south patios are small pavilions (boxes).There are also hundreds of beautiful women with light and heavy makeup gathered on the main corridor, waiting for the drinkers to call them, looking like gods, just like the KTV of later generations, as long as you pay, you can flirt with you , have a good drink.

Like hotels in later generations, each pavilion (box) has a name, and under the guidance of others, Zhao Hao came to a big pavilion named "Yuanfengyuan".

There are not many such large pavilions in Fanlou, and the area is about twice the size of ordinary small pavilions, but they are divided into two rooms, the inside and the outside, separated by beaded curtains and screens in the middle.

When Zhao Hao saw Zhao Yue, Zhao Yue was sitting in front of the main table in the outer cabinet, with two house slaves standing behind him, and two good-looking wine prostitutes sitting next to him, their hands were restless. Walking around, Zhao Hao couldn't help frowning slightly.

This kind of person is not worth making friends with, nor can he be considered a character...

That Zhao Yue's face is handsome, but a little more frivolous and worldly.

The children of the clan, starting from the generation of the great ancestor, the concubines, wives and concubines must be quite beautiful. After the genetic modification brought by generations of beautiful mothers, starting from the generation of their fathers, they all have extraordinary looks and handsome faces. The children of the Song clan are really not handsome.

When Zhao Yue saw Zhao Hao coming, she was very enthusiastic. After exchanging pleasantries, she pushed a drunk prostitute beside her towards Zhao Hao, but Zhao Hao gently pushed him away. Zhao Yue didn't care, and simply embraced hug.

After serving the food and wine, the two drank three rounds, and chatted for a while, Zhao Hao finally couldn't help it, and asked: "I don't know if my brother is inviting me, but do you have something important to talk about?"

Zhao Yue froze for a moment.He said with a smile: "Your brother is really impatient... I heard that my brother opened a brothel on Yanglou Street, is there such a thing?"

Zhao Hao's eyes flashed sternly, he already knew the general idea, and said with a light smile, "It's true."

Zhao Yue smiled, very strangely, motioned for the two drinking prostitutes to back out, moved his body over, and said in a low voice: "My dear brother, you know that within the capital, there are only three kinds of brothels, gambling halls, and pawnshops. Zongzheng will take care of the business?"

"Oh? Zongzhenghui belongs to Zongzheng Temple or Dazong Zhengsi?" Zhao Hao asked coldly.

In the Song Dynasty, there were two institutions that managed the clan: Zongzheng Temple managed genealogy, population statistics and other document and statistical work; the real management of clan affairs was Dazong Zhengsi.

Zhao Yue said with a smile: "Zongzheng Temple and Dazong Zhengsi are both in the open, but Zongzhenghui is in the dark, and they don't belong to each other."

Zhao Hao frowned slightly and said, "Then such as Yihonglou, Qingyuelou, etc., are Zongzheng able to take care of them?"

Zhao Yuedao: "Qingyue Tower, pay [-]% of the profit every month, Yihonglou... also had to pay it before, and the rest of the brothels also have to pay at least [-]% of the profit, so..."

Zhao Yue looked at Zhao Hao, smiled and did not continue.

Zhao Hao's expression remained unchanged, and he still asked calmly: "How much do I have to pay?"

Zhao Yue looked at Zhao Hao, gritted his teeth, and finally said in a deep voice: "Originally, [-]% is enough, but because the branch of the virtuous brother lives in the south of the Yangtze River and contributes very little to the Zongzheng Society, Jinkang County King and Tongzhi are big businessmen. , I hope my virtuous brother can hand over [-]% of the profit."

Zhao Hao smiled brightly, and said in a deep voice, "Forty percent, is it too little?"
