Chapter 186 The Most Profitable Business
There are five Yichun Towers in the capital.
The largest one is located on a lively section of the road, with about a hundred staff members, and the prices range from ten taels of silver to five hundred taels.
Although this one is the largest, it is not the best one.
Anyone who often goes there knows that the best Yichun Building was converted from the original Jiading Bo Mansion.
Liu Rushi is the supervisor of this Yichun Building. Chen Yuanyuan is currently the top player here. He captured the best beauties from the Mongolian Yuan and Dongkai, and almost all of them are here.
It can be said that whether it is the traitor of the country, the merchants who collude with the East, etc., as long as the house is searched, the most beautiful women in their house will be gathered here.
The prices are all very high, and all the guests here are people with extremely high status, otherwise they would not be able to afford it.
The money is calculated by day. As long as you choose it, she will be yours on this day. The lowest price is 200 taels of silver, and the most expensive one thousand taels of silver.
The vassal kings only heard guests talking about this on the third day.
They lack everything, but they don’t lack money. Things that can be done with money are not a big deal for them.
So the vassal kings soon gathered in Jiading Bo Mansion (Yichun Building)
It was indeed different. Even the guards in front of the door were wearing official uniforms. They were actually the sons of Jinyiwei, East Factory and West Factory, standing guard for this Yichun Building.
They didn't care who came to consume. They were mainly responsible for public security and protection of this Yichun Building. When the vassal kings came in, they seemed to have not seen it.
Entering the gate, there is a big garden inside. There are rockery, small rivers, birds singing and flowers blooming, and beauties travel through it from time to time.
The environment is very good, and the beauty is even more beautiful, like a paradise. After passing through a small bridge over the water, we will arrive at a place where we really need to consume.
At a round gate, two beautiful foreign beauties sat next to the door. When they saw someone coming, they stretched out their jade hands to the princes:
"Welcome, the ticket is five taels of silver."
The Fu Wang who was walking in the front was stunned:
"Tickets? You need tickets here. Do you know who we are?"
"Sorry, we don't ask who the person is. If we want to have fun, we need to abide by the rules. Even if the emperor arrives today, we must abide by the rules here."
The rules were originally set by Zhu Youjian. As long as you have money, no matter who you are, of course those corrupt people dare not come here to spend. Nowadays, most of them are merchants from all over the world.
Throughout history, no matter who comes here, he will be unspeakable to the place of romance and moon. Of course, these vassal kings will not care about the five-liang silver tickets.
It just feels strange. As the most luxurious existence in the legend, Yichun Tower does not even have a welcome guest, and it starts to collect tickets before entering the door.
The vassal kings wanted to say something. At this time, a gorgeously dressed young man came to the door, reached out to give the two foreign beauties ten taels of silver, and then squeezed them on their pretty faces and entered the round door.
No longer hesitation or speaking, the vassal kings immediately paid the money, and then pinched the beauty of the alien race. Then they wanted to enter the round door, but were stopped again.
"Sorry, haven't you seen that he just paid ten taels of silver?"
King Fu shook his head:
"This place is indeed unique. This beautiful woman's pretty face is so valuable. She can only pay five taels of silver if you touch it."
After paying the money, I entered the lobby. A row of images of beautiful women were hung in the lobby, with their names and birthplaces below, and why I entered Yichun Tower.
The princes actually found the daughter of Wei Zaode, the former chief minister of the cabinet, as well as Wu Sangui's concubine Chen Yuanyuan, Meng Yuan and other princesses from the east.
When they looked at their price, they were all worth 1,000 liang. The princes were all secretly shocked. This was the price of one day.
In front of a room in the lobby, there are two beauties standing next to the table, and behind the table is a beautiful woman with a charming charm.
When they saw this person, the princes were all moved, so beautiful.
King Fu walked quickly to the beauty:
“Where is your price tag?”
The beauty smiled:
"I am Liu Rushi, the manager of Yichun Building. I don't need to place a price. If I want to accompany you, I need to approve it."
"you……"
When King Fu heard the emperor, he immediately retreated, obviously not serving the outside world.
Zhu Youjian could handle the water dropping without hesitation Qian Qianyi, but Liu Rushi was a loyal and strange woman, and she could be said to be loyal to the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Youjian could not implicate such a woman, so he handed over the Yichun Building to Liu Rushi for management, which was also considered a recognition of her.
Don’t underestimate the boss of Yichunlou. That’s the emperor’s state-owned enterprise, and no one in the court dares to offend her.
When the vassal kings handed over a thousand taels of silver, they were immediately taken to the backyard.
After entering the backyard, they found that this place was another world, and a thousand taels of silver was not a loss...
Qianqing Palace
"Your Majesty, Zhuque is asking for a visit."
"Let him in."
Zhu Youjian was checking the memorials of tax collection and land reform when suddenly the eunuch came to report, and then Zhuque walked into the imperial study room.
"Surpriser Bird Meet the Emperor."
"No gift"
Zhu Youjian nodded.
"What's the matter?"
Zhuque bowed again and replied:
"Emperor, the princes all went to Jiading Bo Mansion. Everyone reserved a time of five to seven days. Liu Rushi asked the emperor for advice whether to allow it."
Zhu Youjian smiled slightly:
"Approval, of course, they want to play all over Yichun Tower. All the money will be rewarded to the soldiers fighting on the front line in the future."
"Abide by the order"
After Zhuque left, Zhu Youjian picked up the memorial again. He was quite satisfied with the current progress of the reform, and the reforms in the entire area north of the Yangtze River were basically completed.
But I encountered some resistance in Fengyang Prefecture. Fengyang is the hometown of Taizu, and there is also a person who is very controversial in history, that is, the current governor of Fengyang Zhu Dadian.
The Ming Dynasty actually began to decline from the Wanli period. By the Chongzhen period, the "dike" could not be blocked at all.
So even though Chongzhen looked at the entire Ming Dynasty, even if he looked good, he was unable to make up for the situation and ended up hanging from the coal mountain.
The Ming Dynasty was closed down at this point. Objectively speaking, the demise of the Ming Dynasty was certainly due to the reasons that later generations said that "the energy has been exhausted."
But the factors themselves cannot be ignored. For example, the corruption of officials and the corruption of officials are all the ant holes in the dam.
Many people may not know that even in the last few years of the Ming Dynasty, when many ordinary people were unable to eat, a huge borer appeared in the Ming Dynasty.
This person's name is Zhu Dadian. His ancestral home is Jinhua, Zhejiang. With his extraordinary skills, he was in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Finally, he became one of the best corrupt officials in the late Ming dynasty with greed methods.
The Ming Dynasty military general Kong Youde launched a coup in Shandong and killed several Ming Dynasty officials. In the end, Zhu Dadian, who was a civil servant, stepped forward and put down the rebellion, and he himself was promoted.
