Chapter 1231 Flower Boat
The waterways along the way are well developed, the terrain is flat, and the agriculture is even better than that in the north. However, the north has not experienced war for so many years, while the south of the Yangtze River...
It seems that Jiangnan did not suffer much from the war and was relatively stable compared to other places.
There were so many people that it seemed as if the land was full of people.
Even in the county town, there are quite a lot of people.
When they arrived in Jinling, the group was truly eye-opening.
There is a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps. The streets are crowded with stalls and vendors, and the shouts of hawkers are heard one after another. Men and women of all ages on the streets are dressed in red and green, and all look very beautiful.
All the women have good skin, and their eyes and eyebrows reveal the unique gentleness of Jiangnan women.
Even Zhou Guo, a modern soul, was stunned and muttered, "This is Jiangnan. How can it compare to those commercialized streets in later generations?"
Xiaoshu looked around and said, "Master, there are so many people in Jiangnan. If we open our dim sum shop and duck food shop here, I wonder how much we can sell every day."
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Don't underestimate these places. There is no shortage of snacks and food here. If they don't suit the tastes of the locals, I'm afraid they won't sell. Okay, let's find a place to eat."
The more than one thousand bodyguards that were brought with them had been divided into various prefectures and counties along the way.
More than a hundred personal soldiers also split up into small groups and followed not far away from him. This way, their group would not be noticeable and they could do whatever they wanted.
There are so many delicious foods in Jiangnan.
They found a large restaurant with a lot of people, ordered a large table of dishes, and also ordered a lot of desserts before and after the meal.
There were about ten people in the group, sitting at one table.
Zhou Guo sat by the window, looking at the various boats on the lake, and said, "Shall we charter a boat tonight and go out for some fun?"
Xiaoshu nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, actually, as soon as I came in, I fell in love with that boat. It's so beautiful. Master, who do you think is on that boat?"
How would Zhou Guo know? She had never been there. "I haven't been there either, but I heard, just heard, that the boat is called a flower boat, and it carries singing girls. We can go there to have some fun at night and pick some pretty girls to sing and dance for us."
Go and experience the life of this romantic young man.
The waiter was serving the dishes. He smiled and said, "Young Master, do you want to order the flower boat? I see you are not an ordinary person. Let me tell you, the most famous flower boat here is the green bamboo boat. There is a prostitute on the boat, called Miss Xianglian. She is good-looking. The most important thing is her dancing. She has a slender waist and twists her body. If she dances a song, I guarantee you will never forget it."
You look unhappy during the Great Heat and Lesser Heat. What kind of place is that? How can you go to such a place?
"Oh?" Zhou Guo was very interested. "Where can I rent this green bamboo boat?"
The second brother smiled and said, "Sir, you asked the right question..."
Pilibala finished speaking.
Zhou Guo gave Xiaoshu a look, and Xiaoshu took out a silver ingot. The second brother's eyes lit up. Such a big ingot? ?
Zhou Guo said, "I hate it most when someone cheats me. If that person is as good as you say, you can take the money with confidence. But if I find out that you cheated me, I will find you even if you run to the ends of the earth. Do you understand?"
The second brother smiled and said, "Who am I? How dare I lie to you, sir? Everything I said is true!"
This is Jinling. He has seen all kinds of guests. Even though Zhou Guo spoke harshly, he was not afraid. He was used to it. Anyway, what he said was true and he was not lying.
Xiaoshu threw the silver ingot to him.
The waiter took the silver and went down happily. This guest was so generous! He hadn't met such a generous guest in many years!
Dashu said, "Master, do you really want to go?"
It costs five taels of silver to get on board, and if you charter a boat, it will cost three hundred taels of silver for one night.
"Of course!" Zhou Guo nodded without hesitation. She couldn't do anything, so couldn't she just go and listen to the music and watch the dance?
It's just that three hundred taels a night is too expensive!
But she's an oiran, so that's understandable.
Now that I have finally come to Jiangnan, I must experience it all.
Finally it was night. The streets were even more lively at night, with bright lights, crowded people, and noisy streets. She was a little dazed for a moment. How could this be a chaotic world? It was clearly a prosperous era!
Just looking at this place, it’s hard to imagine that the world outside is already in tatters. The world has been in chaos for so many years, but the lives of the people here seem to have not changed much.
There were more than a dozen cruise ships and pleasure boats on the lake, and the largest and most luxurious one was heading towards the shore.
Zhou Guo and his group boarded the boat in full view of everyone and amid everyone's envy.
"I wonder which family this young man is from, he is so wasteful, Miss Qinglian wants three hundred taels a night!"
Zhou Guo boarded the boat with his people. As soon as he raised his feet, he saw a woman in front of him and seven or eight women behind him walking in lotus steps. When they came to Zhou Guo, the woman didn't even dare to raise her head. She saluted gracefully and said softly, "Greetings, young master."
The voice is like that of an oriole, pleasant to the ears.
Zhou Guo looked at her. It was such a cold day, and she was only wearing two layers of gauze. Her graceful figure was looming, outlining her beautiful curves.
She nodded, "Get up, I heard your dancing is the best in the world, I came here tonight just for this."
The girl looked up at her in surprise, then immediately lowered her head and said, "Yes."
Zhou Guo saw her face, which was like a water lily after the rain, fresh and elegant, beautiful and otherworldly. No wonder she could be the most beautiful courtesan, this face was indeed beautiful.
The pleasure boat drifted slowly towards the center of the lake.
Zhou Guo sat down in the main seat, listening to the sound of the piano gradually rising. The blue lotus in the middle slowly unfolded its body, its light body swaying like a willow branch, its footsteps light, like a butterfly flying into the flowers...
Every step, every raise of hand and every turn was perfectly in rhythm.
Zhou Guo stared at it intently and didn't even take a sip of his tea even though it had gone cold.
At the end of the song, the veil slowly fell down like a curtain.
Zhou Guo couldn't help but clap his hands, "Good, looks good!"
The people behind him had never seen such a scene before, and their hands were all red from clapping. Although these several hundred taels were expensive, they seemed to be worth it.
Zhou Guo smiled and said, "Sister, can you sing another song?"
Qinglian had no choice but to stand up again.
Zhou Guo looked at it happily. No wonder those young masters like to watch these. She likes it too. It's really beautiful! !
Two hours passed, and it was midnight, and Qinglian was still dancing one song after another.
Later, when they were tired of dancing, they changed to singing a song, which they sang quite well.
Zhou Guo felt sleepy after listening to a few songs. Tears came out of his eyes. He yawned and asked Xiaoshu to pay the money and let the boat dock. "It's getting late. Go back to sleep. Pay the money."
Xiaoshu asked: "How much do you give?"
Zhou Guo originally wanted to say ten taels, after all, she had already paid three hundred taels, but when she saw the people behind her, she changed her mind and said, "Twenty taels, let them divide it."
Now he is stingy again.
