The madam also smiled, knowing that Qin Feng was a good friend of Li Young Master, and did not dare to neglect him. She sent someone to urge the establishment to serve him well! She also sent a young man to take Qin Sir upstairs, who should be the brothel's keeper.
The man looked young but had a slick demeanor, with a somewhat lecherous expression on his face. He nodded and bowed as he led Qin Sir upstairs. The business at Yanhua Tower was truly thriving; it was all because their beauties were all Great Beauties. Even at this early hour, most of the rooms were already filled, and there was just one vacant room left on the second floor for Qin Sir.
The man led the way, looking somewhat monkey-like with pointed ears and a long face, constantly addressing him as Qin Sir, which pleased him greatly. The madam glanced at Qin Fu beside her, noting that he was dressed far too plainly. No wonder he was just Qin Feng's steward; he looked almost like a merchant, which made her feel a bit disdainful.
In fact, she didn't take Qin Feng seriously at all; he was merely a Third-Rank Official. There were countless High Officials in the court above him, with hundreds more including royal relatives and wealthy merchants. He was truly insignificant.
Moreover, he was a clean official with hardly any Silver to his name; he couldn't even afford to sleep with an ordinary beauty, let alone one of her Four Great Beauties! If it weren't for Li Young Master's money, she wouldn't even bother to acknowledge that fellow.
Just then, a beautiful woman in a blue dress passed by. Her clothing was very thin; for some reason, Yanhua Tower felt particularly warm, so even in such light clothing, one wouldn't feel cold. She stood about five feet tall and wore blue shoes that made her look even more enchanting. Her figure was very slender, and her skin was fair and smooth. She appeared soft and delicate, with curves that were enticingly accentuated.
Her upper body was ample and rounded, while her hips were high and perky, exuding an irresistible charm that was truly captivating. The madam called out, "Lan, come over and accompany this gentleman. Take him to an empty room and you know what to do."
The woman in the blue dress initially seemed indifferent but upon hearing this, a smile appeared on her cold face as if she were quite pleased. She took Qin Fu's hand and headed over.
Qin Fu was naturally very happy; the women here were all Great Beauties, far superior to those outside. He intended to enjoy himself thoroughly.
Soon enough, Qin Feng arrived at the only vacant room on the second floor. The room appeared quite spacious and was adorned with paintings of men embracing beautiful women that made one blush.
He sat down at the table while the man smiled and left without closing the door; soon enough, a City Courtesan would come to accompany Qin Sir.
Qin Feng felt somewhat nervous facing such openly seductive beauties; it was still a bit unfamiliar for him. Their proactive demeanor made him feel shy, causing his body to tremble slightly.
Suddenly, he heard bursts of women's laughter from the adjacent room. Their voices were so open that it stirred something within him. He stood up from his chair and walked over to the wall to listen in.
A man slammed his cup down on the table loudly and said, "You beauties can leave! You've drunk enough wine already; we don't need you to accompany us anymore. It's time for us to discuss business."
The women were confused; did they come here just to drink? That seemed unreasonable.
"Two gentlemen, why don't we drink together while you discuss business? Wouldn't that be better? Are you really willing to send us away?"
Suddenly, a man's hand slammed down on the table hard enough to rattle the cups—he was clearly furious!
"I told you to leave! Didn't you hear me? A bunch of painted ladies thinking they can stay here with me? Get out now! If you don't leave soon, I might just hit someone!"
The women seemed startled by his anger; they understood what he meant and quickly ran out while shutting the door behind them.
The man in front looked to be in his fifties and appeared quite shrewd—he must be a wealthy merchant.
"Wang Xiang, why are you so angry? These women are just here for drinks; if you send them away now, how will we enjoy ourselves?"
Wang Xiang had thick eyebrows and big eyes with plenty of muscles; he was a soldier—a General—who naturally exuded an air of authority despite being somewhat mediocre in skill.
"These painted ladies bore me; I've been wandering around Tokyo City for years now and can't stand their kind anymore. Didn't you say Li Shishi would come tonight to keep me company?"
The businessman laughed heartily; he was Zhou Li, Tokyo's second-largest merchant—true to his name! Of course, profit came first for him.
"General Wang need not worry; I've already arranged everything. Li Shishi will be dancing downstairs tonight and will throw Hydrangeas. The person who catches her will definitely be yours!"
"However, General Wang," he continued with a sly smile that revealed his cunning nature—being a businessman meant never making unprofitable deals!
Wang Xiang snorted lightly; he had just returned from war in the north and reported battle conditions to the emperor earlier that afternoon—this information was highly confidential! However, since the emperor already knew about it, it didn't matter much anymore.
"That's right; those damned Jin people are attacking again with great ferocity—they've already taken several border cities and are charging forward with an army of over one hundred thousand! Zhou Li is going to make a fortune off this!"
"I estimate that this war will last for several months or more. When that happens, prices in Tokyo City will surely skyrocket! If you buy up these supplies now, you'll make several times your investment—even tens of times—and possibly surpass even Tokyo's richest family—the Li Family—in one night! Don't forget your brother Wang!"
Zhou Li laughed heartily; his amiable expression turned into one of sinister glee as he realized this could indeed lead him to great wealth—perhaps even make him Tokyo's wealthiest man!
He had received news that the Jin people were coming again with many troops but hadn't expected the war would last for months. When food ran out in the city, he could sell it at prices dozens of times higher than usual—people would still scramble for it or risk starving!
He had hurried back on horseback after receiving this information along with his general's analysis—it was accurate indeed.
He quickly raised his white porcelain wine cup filled with wine towards Wang Xiang. "Brother Wang provided me with such crucial information this time! If I become Tokyo's wealthiest man because of it, I won't forget you! You can enjoy whatever you want at my establishments—all expenses will be on me!"
"Also," he added with a grin as he raised his cup again, "the five thousand taels of Silver will be sent directly to your residence! Li Shishi will also be lying in your arms tonight for your pleasure—congratulations on winning such beauty!"
Wang Xiang lifted his cup as well and drank it all down; as a northern soldier, this wine tasted far too weak!
Going to Zhou Li's establishments felt distant since he hadn't been in Tokyo City much lately.
This white Silver and beauty were readily available—especially Li Shishi—who had been tempting him for years!
She was Tokyo City's top courtesan—not only skilled in music and arts but also able to dance gracefully; her movements were mesmerizingly alluring—her body as supple as wind—it was simply breathtaking!
He had wanted to spend a wonderful night with her several times but she never agreed due to her close ties with various nobles—it wouldn't do to act recklessly!
This time though—with the backing of Tokyo's second-richest merchant—he managed to bribe the madam so perhaps he'd finally get his chance! His heart couldn't help but bloom with joy at the thought of her enchanting figure.
