Zhu Bao drooped his head. His eyes were red and swollen, and the grievances in his heart couldn't be confided to. There were some things that he didn't have the face to say to his aunt.
He had spent money to buy a few women. However, they were actually not famous concubines at all. They were the prostitutes raised by his family!
Why? He himself wasn't the main point about playing, the key point was that those shameless Official s he sent over loved him!
The atmosphere of the officials of late Qing was extremely bad. Eating and drinking to their hearts' content was considered small, what was the point of these people eating and drinking to their hearts' content? He had to smoke a lot, he had to fuck a woman!
On both sides of the canals were economically developed regions, and almost all the commercial towns had brothels. These brothels were like the red light districts of future generations, and were places with high consumption.
We are all government officials, shouldn't we find a woman and not a door? He had to go to the brothel at all costs to look for the red girl with status!
But in this kind of place, it was a place to sell large sums of money. Generally, GIRL would sell their goods at a price of 100 gold taels, and there would be even ones with a price of 1000 gold taels!
Sometimes, even Zhu Bao couldn't figure it out. It was just a pile of meat that was placed differently, so why was there such a large difference in price?
Half a secret door, a big dirty brick bed, eighteen years of GIRL could sleep with just a silver dollar, but in this kind of place, it would cost hundreds of thousands of silver!
It really wasn't worth it! In fact, many GIRL s who were worth a few hundred silver looked like that, they might as well be some of the country flowers downstairs. However, there were some that were exceptionally beautiful in those part-time jobs.
Unfortunately, even if it wasn't worth it, he had no way to argue because the environment was still money. This was the environment in which officials dealt with business!
The better the environment was, the more money and grains would be wasted, which would then be able to reflect the noble nature of the Guest and the sincerity of the Master!
Zhu Bao had already fallen into a deep financial crisis. He could still hold on if there were two or three hundred taels left over on the table, but drinking wine every night would consume four figures of silver. It truly pained him!
After thinking about it, I'll just buy a few plays and raise my family. Normally, I'll play and sing for myself, but when I come to Guest, I'll let this brothel girl sleep in it.
This was Zhu Bao's real intention to buy the Girl.
But her aunt Fu Hui only thought that he was lustful and lustful, and directly blamed all of the crimes on her. But there was no room for debate on this matter, was he trying to make his nephew talk to her aunt about the flowery life of women? He didn't dare to say anything!
”Aunt! Every year, I spend over a hundred thousand taels of silver just for people who like me. In the end, I can't even afford to spend that much to celebrate New Year … ”There's really no other way! That's why I extended my hand out from the riverman!”
”To tell you the truth, when I took the money, I did some calculations with Taishan Taishan …” Next year will also be a year with less rain.
”I did embezzle a little this year, but if I don't emit water tomorrow, I can use next year's river workers' silver to fill in this year's deficit! When the time comes, we will definitely fix the river bank and not drown our old people … ”
”Pui!” You must be lying to a ghost! ” Fu Hui was so angry that she even opened her window, ”Is this the reason why you embezzled five million silver taels? Even if what you said is true, you don't have enough money to spend for a year... Even then, it would not even reach five million silver! ”
”In the end, it's still your own greed and shamelessness!”
Zhu Bao said with a bitter face, ”My dear aunt! You have wronged me to death. I said there was five million in the balance sheet, and I didn't say it was all in my pocket! ”
”Of the over a hundred Official in the Jining Hall, none of them will give away this money! This five million was divided up by the officials of the prefectural city of Jining! ”
”You can't blame it all on me! ”I've only divided it up to 600,000 …” Zhu Bao said that he still had six hundred thousand yuan in his heart. He had actually divided the money two hundred thousand. The rest were split among the officials below!
