Jin Zhenghao said: "I said, Lao Yan, don't talk about those big principles. Other people's children can't die. What's the matter with the peace of the Three Kingdoms closing our Shuikou City? Qin Guogong, my surname is Jin, I want to tell you something from the bottom of my heart, you Saved the lives of tens of thousands of people of our Maojindao family, such a great kindness, it is hard for us Maojindao family to repay their lives. Qin Guogong, you are the Buddha of Wanjia in our Shuikou City."
Mao Shaohong said: "What you said is nothing. What I admire the most is that Qin Guogong does not expect to repay his kindness. He has helped us so much, but he himself does not take any money. This kind of character is Even the ancient sages can't compare."
Every time they met, the three old city lords always talked like flattering cars, and Guo Ye could hear cocoons in his ears, that is to say, Mao Shaohong's words were somewhat new.But the problem is... what this old guy said is not true!
Guo Ye blushed and said, "Master Mao, are you praising me or scolding me? I have a lot of gifts from you, and I have accepted them all. Could it be that you are always mocking me, Guo Ye, for being greedy for money?" ?”
"Where, where. Qin Guogong, don't get me wrong, the little old man definitely didn't mean that. We gave you those things, yes, you accepted them. However, the little old man has lived for so many years, it depends on the person. You still have your eyesight. You have no interest in those things at all, and you reluctantly accepted them because of the little old man's thin face, am I right?"
Jin Zhenghao then said: "So, Qin Guogong accepted our gift not because of greed for money, but because we have a place for our three old faces. But then again, Qin Guogong, you will make us old The brothers have trouble sleeping and eating."
"How do you say this?"
"Isn't this obvious? What you pay attention to is that you don't expect to repay your kindness. We people with three surnames pay attention to the fact that a drop of water needs to be repaid by a spring. This great man who saved hundreds of thousands of lives Well, we didn't repay you well, can you feel better?"
"This... the three old city lords are really too polite."
Dao Yanlang said: "It's not to be polite, but our heart in Shuikou City. Let me tell you clearly, today our brothers came to you and wanted to give you a big gift."
Guo Ye is a person from today's society. All kinds of rare treasures in ancient times are far away from the high technology of modern society.As for all kinds of delicious and fun things that the three city lords have painstakingly collected, they are not as good as the extravagant enjoyment of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty.As for direct discounting... Guo Ye is not that thick-skinned.
Therefore, Guo Ye was not at all interested in repaying the favor of the three old city lords.
He said: "As the saying goes, goose feathers are sent from thousands of miles away, and the gift is light and the affection is heavy. The friendship between friends is the most important thing. The three old city lords expressed their affection for Guo Ye, and someone Guo took it. As for the matter of repaying the favor... don't worry. , don’t worry, let’s owe it first. Maybe one day I, Guo Ye, will go to memorize words, and if I encounter something embarrassing, I will ask the three elder brothers.”
Dao Yanlang said: "Mr. Qin was just joking. With your great talent, there is nothing in the world that can stop you. Even if you take ten thousand steps back, you really encountered some big trouble that can't be solved. The three of us The old guy is even more free. According to what you said, we in Shuikou City have no chance to repay your great kindness."
After a pause, Dao Yanlang smiled slightly, and continued: "Mr. Qin, do you think that we in Shuikou City can't show you anything good to honor you? In order to save some face for us three old guys, we deliberately made excuses. "
After hearing this, Guo Ye became a little unhappy.A great figure once said that the highest principle of dealing with people is to make a fortune in silence.You Dao Yanlang made everything clear, can you play happily together in the future?
He said: "Mr. Guo is in a high position at a young age. He is rich like a country. He has a beautiful wife and concubines in his family, and he is surrounded by children. With such a life, what can a husband ask for? Doesn't it mean that Shuikou City can't come up with anything that can do it?" There are not many things that can tempt someone Guo, even in Chang'an City."
"That's not likely!" Jin Bochao said: "After the three of us thought hard, we really thought of something, which will definitely satisfy Qin Guogong."
Dao Yanlang said: "This kind of thing is something that thousands of people want to have, but it can only be enjoyed by Qin Guogong alone. I really envy others."
Mao Shaohong said: "It's not that the old man is boasting. In order to find this thing, our Shuikou City spent a lot of money. The manpower, material resources and even money invested in it are unprecedented."
Seeing the expressions of satisfaction on the faces of the three old city lords, Guo Ye was really interested in the gift they were going to give, and said, "What exactly is it?"
Dao Yanlang said: "Duke Qin, in order to celebrate the Three Kingdoms' oath that they will never attack each other, in order to celebrate our Maojindao three surnames gathered in Shuikou City. Our Shuikou City decided to hold an oiran contest. Women or women from good families can participate. Qin Guogong, do you understand what this old man means?"
Of course Guo Ye understood what Jin Bochao meant. No wonder Guo Ye was not allowed to bring Yang Fengyi today. I dare say that these three old men were planning to pimp themselves today.
He said, "You mean to choose a stunning beauty for me?"
Dao Yanlang stretched out four fingers, and said: "Not one, but four! In this oiran competition, one official and three mates will be selected, four oirans."
Guo Ye was puzzled, and said: "Oiran, as the name suggests, is the leader of the flowers. Can this thing have a positive and a negative?"
Chapter 1626 Oiran (2)
Wen has no first, Wu has no second.
Even so, when it came time to take the imperial examination, he still scored the No. [-] Scholar, No. [-], and Tan Hua.I haven't heard of it, it should be divided into one regular champion and several deputy champions.
In the same way, no matter how big the oiran contest is, there can only be one oiran. In the oiran contest in Shuikou City, there are one official, three mates, and four oirans, which is really nondescript.
Dao Yanlang explained: "This time, there are four oiran competitions, such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, each of which will produce an oiran, so a total of four oirans will be produced. Then, one of the four oirans will be selected. They are real oirans, so it is said that there are four oirans, one principal, three mates."
Guo Ye shook his head and said: "Even if what you said is reasonable, the so-called four oirans are just a gimmick. How can women from good families participate in any oiran competition? Don't guess, the oiran contest must be women from brothels. Even if everyone is a Qing Dynasty official, Mr. Guo is not very interested."
"You can't say that." Jin Zhenghao smiled slyly, and said: "In the land of Sanhan, except for us Han people, people of other ethnic groups do not prevent women from showing their faces. Even Han people are influenced by barbarians. It’s very serious, men and women have a big problem, and it’s not as serious as the Central Plains people. Our Shuikou City has promised a lot of rewards, so we don’t have to worry about these people not being tempted.”
"Big reward?"
"That's right, the main oiran is 3 taels of gold, and the three vice oirans are each 1 taels of gold. The remaining top ten get 1000 taels of gold each. The remaining top 500 get [-] taels of gold each. This The price, not to mention just the bonus, even if you buy someone, you will be rich and blessed."
In Pingkang Lane in Chang'an City, it would cost no more than 100 taels of gold to redeem a well-known kabuki.The commercial level of the land of Sanhan is far lower than that of Chang'an City. The price offered by Dao Yanlang is indeed a sky-high price.
Guo Yedao: "The price offered by the three city lords is indeed not low. But there is a saying that the reason why people are human is to pay attention to etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame. For a little money, competing with a group of women from brothels, wouldn't it embarrass parents , the ancestors were ashamed?"
He paused for a moment, and then continued: "What's more, as far as I know, the people in the Three Koreas are simple and honest. When the people talk about marriage, in order to avoid being said to be selling girls, even the dowry They don’t charge very much. The public sentiment is like this, and the high reward alone may not attract many people.”
Dao Yanlang smiled slightly and said: "Qin Guogong, you only know one thing, not the other. Participating in our oiran contest is not for your beauty pageant in name. Participating in this oiran contest is not only beneficial, but also famous. .Not just famous, but famous."
"Then Guo would like to hear more about it."
"Duke Qin, have you ever heard of the Merry Sect?"
"The Merry Sect is widely spread in the Three Koreas, how could someone like Guo not know about it? But what does the Merry Sect have to do with this oiran contest?"
"The relationship is very important. Our oiran contest is in the name of the Merry Sect. The Merry Sect has been developed to the present, and it has long been controlled by the courts of the Three Kingdoms. Who is Yuanhua and who is not, is determined by the lord of the country .In fact, this is seriously inconsistent with the teachings of the Merry Sect.”
Jin Bochao continued: "Last year, there was a meeting of immortals. There was a lot of thunder and little rain. In the end, there was a coup d'état about who would get the total flower of the Three Kingdoms. Silla, Goguryeo, and Baekje. Stick to one word. In the end, the Merry Sect of the Three Kingdoms itself is also ashamed."
Mao Shaohong said: "The root cause of this situation is that the three countries all favor the source flowers of their own countries. They are happy when they win, and shake their heads when they lose. Our Oiran Contest is different. Our Shuikou City does not belong to anyone. In a country, the selection is fair and just, whoever can be the oiran is the real Yuanhua."
This theory is really a bit of nonsense!
Even if the selection of the original flowers of the Three Kingdoms Merry School does not conform to the teachings of the Merry School, then Shuikou City will hold an oiran competition, and the oiran selected will be the total source flower of the Three Kingdoms. This procedure is even more inconsistent with the teachings of the Merry School.
Besides, even if what Shuikou City did was in line with the teachings of the Merry Sect, so what?Without the guarantee of force, how can the top management of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms be subdued?
All in all, this oiran competition is a self-entertainment competition in Shuikou City, which is difficult to be elegant.As for the fact that the oiran is the source flower of the Three Kingdoms, it is even more of a gimmick, meaningless.
There are countless flaws in the words of the three old city lords. Guo Ye can think of [-] sentences to refute, but, as the saying goes, there are flaws all over, but there are no flaws.
He opened his mouth, but still didn't know where to start.In the end, thousands of words merged into one sentence, saying: "Three old city owners, do you believe what you said?"
Dao Yanlang didn't blush, and said: "We don't believe it when we talk about it. The Oiran Contest was conceived by the three of us old brothers. I don't know what it is for? But... Qin Guogong, do you think we The words are full of loopholes, because you are well-informed. Do you think there is any problem in deceiving ordinary people with our words?"
Guo Ye thought about it carefully, and there was really no problem!There are actually two core theories of the three old city lords. The first one is that the Yuanhua selected by the court of the Three Kingdoms does not conform to the teachings of the Fengliu Sect.This is a fact, irrefutable.Second, foreign monks like to chant scriptures, and Shuikou City is not under the jurisdiction of the Three Kingdoms, which naturally represents fairness and justice.
Even if you think about it carefully, you will know that this second theory is really unreliable.However, throughout the ages, even in modern society, most people still believe this, consciously or unconsciously.It doesn't make sense, the people of the land of Sanhan are an exception.
As for whether the oiran selected by Shuikou City can be recognized by the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and whether he can exercise the power of the total source flower of the Three Kingdoms, most people really can't think about it in the long run.
Of course, there is a more important point, the high reward offered by the three old city lords.
Not only do you get 3 taels of gold for being an oiran, but as long as you are in the top 500, you can get 1 taels of gold.This bounty is really attractive. Any pretty woman will lack self-knowledge and won't be able to get No.[-]. Could it be that she can't make it out of a hundred?
As long as you come to Shuikou City to show your face, you will have money that will last a lifetime, and you will have the opportunity to become the source flower of the Three Kingdoms. Such a thing of fame and fortune, why not try it?
Various talent contests in later generations can drive countless people crazy, and the gold content of this oiran contest is much higher than those of the so-called '××female voices'.People of all colors are flocking to her, it's a sure thing.
Guo Ye nodded, and said: "These words are indeed enough to deceive ordinary people. But in that case, how can you ensure that the courtesans who have been selected from thousands of people are willing to..."
