C94 (1/2)
The trio arrived at the brothel at the third fragment of the night. It was already quite late, but for a business like brothel, it was the best time.
The entire brothel had been cooled down for an entire day, and it just so happened that it was the hottest time of the day. If the people who came were not Tuoba Jing and Su Moyun, the old procuress would probably not have had the spare time to look after them.
However, it just so happened to be these two great buddhas.
Even if she had to pay the night's worth of silver taels, she would have to serve these two great buddhas well, wouldn't she?
”You're quite open-minded this time. You aren't going to lock us up?” Su Moyun held her cheek, and looked at the old procuress quietly. Her mouth had a hint of cruelty, and a sense of anger could be seen.
The old procuress didn't know what she had done to offend Su Moyun, but she could only laugh foolishly, fawning on him while trying to curry favor with him. She kept peeking at Tuoba Jing, fearing that Tuoba Jing would kill her with one move of his hands, ”How could that be possible! Last time, this servant was blind enough to not recognize Mount Tai and offended esteemed wangfei, I hope that esteemed wangfei can forgive me.”
”Forgive me!” ”What a good 'having eyes but not understanding Mount Tai'!” The wine cup in Su Moyun's hand shattered, exploding at the old procuress's feet.
The old procuress was scared to the point that her whole body was covered in cold sweat, trembling and afraid to speak.
”Even now, you still feel that I'm just a pushover, showing off my status as a Seventh Prince here?” Su Moyun coldly snorted, and poured a cup of wine for Tuoba Jing who was watching the show.
Tuoba Jing caught the alcohol with a smile on his face. Seeing this, Su Moyun almost wanted to beat him up too.
Seeing the rich brocade was bullied by the people of this brothel cast a shadow in their hearts.
”The servant did not mean it that way, the servant only …” The old procuress mumbled. Under Su Moyun's glare, she trembled and was unable to speak clearly.
Su Moyun let out a cold snort and shook the paper contract on her body. She could not hide the sneer on her face in the slightest: ”Tell me, can I sell all of you?”
”You can't do that!” The old procuress exploded her hair and looked at Su Moyun in fear.
Su Moyun flung the contract in her hand, and her tone was not very good, ”Why can't I? I am the master of your brothel now, even if you were to beg Tuoba Jing now, do you think he will ignore you? ”
”Miss Su is a smart person, she should know the value of this brothel. This brothel was originally the biggest place in the entire Imperial City, and the information about the money inside is not something an ordinary place can compare to. Miss Su should also know, if —”
The old procuress chattered nonstop. Her fear of being displaced overcame the fear of Tuoba Jing who was standing in front of her.
She wasn't the only person in this brothel. There were also some homeless girls that had followed her from the start.
She couldn't ignore the girls.
”I'm a smart person, so I know that I can't control you, and I can't control the people in this brothel, right?” Su Moyun asked with eyes full of contempt and displeasure.
The old procuress shivered and finally understood where the problem was and kneeled down. ”Miss Su must be joking, how could I not listen to Miss? Miss is the servant girl's heaven, Miss is the servant girl's land, Miss said that Servant Dong doesn't dare to go west!”
Right now, she understood that this Seventh Prince was really planning to dump everything on his own hands and did not plan to care about the brothels anymore, so she gave up on the brothels in reality.
”Very good.” Su Moyun raised his cup and placed it in the bawd's hands: ”As expected, you still have some brains. How about this, tell me, who other people did you hand the brocade to?”
At that time, the bawd's attitude towards him was not bad, so it would be unrealistic to say that the bawd deliberately beat up the brocade.
In all likelihood, it was the group's own decision.
