At the worst hits, so long as in any case Hong Xiu had the trace of brothel becomes.” “计先生,我想过了,我们需要看凡人脸色？大不了打出去,反正只要红秀有个出青楼的痕迹就成了。” Actually makes Ji Yuan and the others first walk, Zhang Rui flees later, but she really does not want to treat in this. 其实让计缘等人先走,张蕊随后遁走也可以,但她真的一刻都不想在这待下去了。 Ji Yuan apology arched cupping one hand in the other across the chest toward Zhang Rui. 计缘歉意的朝着张蕊拱了拱手。 „Miss Zhang felt relieved, you just that noisy, there is an effect, can go out calmly and steadily naturally is not noisy big good, said that coarse words, in the procuress eyes, here female to a certain extent are the commodity of waiting for a better price, the price right naturally said.” “张姑娘放心,你刚刚那一闹,还是有奇效的,能安稳出去自然是不闹大的好,说句难听的话,在老鸨眼中,这里的女子某种程度上都是待价而沽的商品,价对了自然好说。” „She must want a lion's share,

pay, should be he pays!” “这钱我们糊弄着垫上,之后自然有人会付,也合该是他付！” Ji Yuan considered was saying, turned the head to arch cupping one hand in the other across the chest toward water deity Du Guangtong. 计缘思量着说了一句,才转头朝着水神杜广通拱了拱手。 „Du Shuishen, this time looked your.” “杜水神,此番看你的了。” Before Du Guangtong the body , the tea in cups drinks completely, stands to return a courtesy. 杜广通将自己身前杯盏中的茶水饮尽,站起来回礼。 „Mister Ji please feel relieved, Du decided however completed, in advance said goodbye!” “计先生请放心,杜某定然办妥,先行告辞了！” „Good, the water deity does as you please!” “好,水神请便！” Du Guangtong later also slightly cups one hand in the other across the chest toward Zhang Rui and Wang Li, does not wait for both to return a courtesy changes into the water glare to have the window to go together. 杜广通随后朝着张蕊和王立也略一拱手,不等两者回礼就化为一道水光出窗而去。 „Mister Ji, is water deity Sir this does do?” “计先生,水神大人这是去干嘛？” Zhang Rui comes back, before is not clear, they discussed anything, therefore is very curious, Wang Li coughs, by the language gas channel/angrily said of storyteller. 张蕊才回来,不清楚之前他们商量了什么,所以很好奇,王立咳嗽一声,以说书人的语气道。 „This time the water deity Sir goes, in good monster territorial waters, comes ashore to change into one team of troops, having the wealth brocade ransom money to come is the Hong Xiu miss buys freedom.” “此番水神大人一去,将领水中善妖,上岸化为一队人马,带着财锦赎金前来为红秀姑娘赎身。” The appearance must install an attire, is not definitely suitable to put out many wealth on a Ji Yuan such person. 样子还是要装一装的,就计缘这么一个人肯定也不适合拿出诸多财富来。 That night had too many matter regarding the big show building. 这一夜对于大秀楼来说发生了太多的事情。 Came an honored incomparable and mysterious incomparable guest, picked Hong Xiu to for her buy freedom. 来了一个尊贵无比又神秘无比的客人,一眼相中了红秀要替她赎身。 Afterward came a servant of brigade devils, light/only had a liking for one by them, these healthy servant turtles in big show building Duke sweat on the back. 随后来了一大队凶神恶煞的下人,光是被他们看上一眼,大秀楼里的那些健仆龟公就脊背冒汗。 But most ominous counter- actually not bystander, but is Hong Xiu miss, daughter family/home that this four arts every kind are skilled, in the evening the ominous flame is unexpectedly abundant depressed big show building all women, a person felt somewhat fears her incessantly the procuresses. 但最凶的反倒不是外人,而是红秀姑娘本人,这琴棋书画样样精通的女儿家,当晚居然凶焰盛得压下了大秀楼所有的女人,不止一人感觉连老鸨都有些怕她。 Naturally, finally the big show building has not suffered a loss, the wealth that must come makes the procuress smile reluctantly, although the next gold/metal egg chicken did not have, but resulted in not the poor wealth. 当然,最终大秀楼也没吃亏,得来的财富还是让老鸨勉强笑了笑,虽然下金蛋的鸡没了,但到底还是得了不菲的钱财。 Was near by oneself „daughter” the slap in the face of fan, making the procuress feel sore with a smile. 只是临了被自己“女儿”扇的一个耳光,让老鸨笑着都觉得疼。 A gold of casket, a small box heavy pearl, the gold has 520 fully, naturally is not the small number, what is especially precious is these pearls, grains greatly perfectly round, richly is simply difficult to buy, can make most women crazy. 一小箱的黄金,一小箱子沉甸甸的珍珠,黄金足有五百两,自然不是小数目,但尤其珍贵的还是那些珍珠,一个个粒大浑圆,简直是有钱难买,能令绝大多数女人疯狂。 The female who on the big show ship in big show building, also many colorful broadcast, does not depend on Hong Xiu one person to support, was short of Hong Xiu is also insufficient to have a fracture, they who have formed one mature practice-oriented talent, will hold some rookie immediately vigorously. 大秀楼内的大秀船上,同样还有不少艳名远播的女子,不是靠着红秀一人撑起来的,少了一个红秀还不至于伤筋动骨,早已形成一套成熟培养模式的他们,也立刻会大力捧起某个新人。 The 2nd day daytime, outside to become Sufu the prefectural city on dozens li (0.5 km) Solemn River, the small boat is going forward, Ji Yuan and Du Guangtong, Zhang Rui and Wang Li stand above. 第二日白天,成肃府府城外数十里的肃水上,有一艘小舟正在前进,计缘、杜广通、张蕊和王立都站在上头。 When this ship some shapes the early spring wash in the river has sat that sits 78 people a cinch, but rows a boat is Ji Yuan. 这船有些像当初春沐江上坐过的那种,坐个七八人不在话下,而划船的则是计缘。 „Passes off fake articles for the real thing, last night was experiences.” “正所谓鱼目混珠,昨晚算是见识到了。” Ji Yuan stood with respectful with a smile in nearby Du Guangtong is chatting last night matter, this water deity worked is very meticulous, back Ji Yuan has not acted. 计缘笑着同恭立在边上的杜广通聊着昨晚的事,这水神做事还挺缜密,后边计缘都没怎么出手。 „Hey, the Mister Ji erroneous approved, among me looks for the person of austere mansion nether world, has checked these year of big show building several chiefs among flowers buying freedom prices, several hundred two gold are the sky-high prices, if the old person are less, the gold that our gives has not made that big show building owe.” “嘿,计先生谬赞了,我中间去找寻成肃府阴司之人,查过这些年大秀楼几个花魁的赎身价格,几百两黄金已算是天价,若是年老色衰之人则更少,我们这给的金子可没让那大秀楼亏了。” The given gold is the real gold, the pearl is not. 给的黄金是真黄金,珍珠则不全是。 A box gold is Du Guangtong „taking advantage of” came from some to become Sufu big money shop cave, Ji Yuan will naturally find the person who really Hong Xiu hides makes up. 一箱子黄金是杜广通从成肃府某个大钱庄地窖里“借”来的,计缘自然会去找把真红秀藏起来的人补上。 But that box of pearl, is not the big show building earned, Du broad will go „with” to return through several days personally. 但那箱珍珠嘛,本来就不是大秀楼应得的,杜广通过几天就会亲自去“拿”回。 Du Guangtong hopes the person who actually found cannot draw cash, then he helps Mister Ji help people overcome their difficulties well, finding the way properly to solve this matter, like this he and Mister Ji good reason can be steadier. 杜广通倒是希望找到的人拿不出钱,然后他就好帮计先生排忧解难,想办法妥善解决这件事,这样他和计先生的善缘就能更稳一些。 Although Solemn River does not have direct connectivity Connecting Heavens River, but under actually several classes wind to link Connecting Heavens River, Ji Yuan is not irritable, the plan rows a boat to go to the national capital mansion, at his speed of rowing a boat, does not need to arrive in Capital for half a month. 肃水虽然没有直接连通通天江,但却有几条之流蜿蜒之下连着通天江,计缘也不急躁,就打算这么划船去京畿府,以他的划船的速度,不需要半个月就能到京。 Chatted several with the water, the opposite party said goodbye to depart finally, Ji Yuan had a look at Wang Li that in the cabin is dozing off, thinks to say. 同水神聊了几句,对方最终还是告辞离去,计缘看看船舱内打着瞌睡的王立,想了想才道。 „Mister Wang, a night had not rested yesterday, please first rest, when you wake up, the Ji also a little story said with you, or may compile the book.” “王先生,昨天一夜未睡,请先休息吧,等你醒来,计某还有一点故事同你说道说道,或可编撰正书。” Wang Li blurry „after yeah”, depends continues to doze off in the cabin, no will sleep soundly. 王立迷迷糊糊的“哎”一声后靠在舱内继续打瞌睡,没一会就睡熟了。
