The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 110 Bamboo Knife
"Senior Tanabe is from Kyushu?"

"I am also looking forward to Kyushu, but unfortunately my studies are heavy now..."

On the way to dance with Tanabe Ryuko, Bai Gui also heard Tanabe Ryuko mention some customs and habits of Kyushu, so he was a little stunned.

Kyushu Island once belonged to the Satsuma domain.

The Goryeo envoy once went to Dongying and wrote a book "Dongchalu", which records: "People in Satsuma are all based on faith. People who have the beauty of wives and concubines and lovesickness will not hesitate to borrow one night to comfort their hearts. .”

Simply put, the custom of "borrowing wives" is very popular in Satsuma.

The book was set nearly 100 years ago and is extremely believable.

The Dongying women of the Satsuma domain are more open-minded than the average Dongying women, and it is normal for Ryuko Tanabe to be like this.

"I'm going home in half a month. Since you like Kyushu Island, please don't refuse when the time comes..." Gradually, Tanabe Ryuko almost snuggled into Bai Gui's arms. People are dancing with their arms around each other, their postures are ambiguous.

"sure!"

Bai Gui secretly warned himself that after returning, he would resolutely refuse any chance to meet Ryuko Tanabe.The warm air was blowing on his ears, which was warm and itchy.

In the eyes of Ryuko Tanabe, I am afraid he is the prey.

Too uncomfortable!
After a while, suddenly, the lights brightened.

But the dance music came to an end, and the dance party ended accordingly.

Ryuko Tanabe smiled, stood on tiptoe, kissed Bai Gui lightly on the cheek like a dragonfly touching water, then gathered his clothes and left the ballroom, walked to Mori Ogai, chatted and laughed a few words, Departed with an aged female servant.

"Playing play hard to get?"

Bai Gui squinted his eyes. If he was really a young man, he would probably be dazzled by Tanabe Ryuko's combination of punches. He really thought that love was coming, and then he couldn't sleep. See through everything.

He took out the handkerchief from the skirt pocket and wiped the hickey clean.

"Brother Dongping, let's go!"

Seeing that Dongping Saburo had just finished chatting and laughing with a female student in sailor uniform and waved goodbye, Bai Gui also came over and invited him to leave together.

"She is a Chinese from Kyoto. Once I marry her, she will be turned over!"

As the two walked, Dongping Saburo whispered, looking excited.

But while speaking, he didn't mention the noble lady's surname to Bai Gui, apparently as a precaution.He is a bastard, even though his father is a senior official in the county, how could he be compared with the Chinese in Kyoto.

"Then congratulate brother Dongping in advance for marrying a wealthy family."

Congratulations to Bai Gui.

It's not necessarily impossible.Saburo Dongping is the deputy minister, and he has qualifications. After entering the University of Tokyo, if he graduates, he is also an indispensable talent in Dongying. Marrying a noble girl is not wrong.

"Where, where."

"Brother Meihe is still better at it, and Ryuko Tanabe was taken down by you..."

At the gate of Bieye, there were already many carriages waiting.

The two got into the carriage.

"Find a hotel nearby."

Bai Gui said to the coachman.Shibuya District is a bit far from Hachioji City. With the speed of a carriage, it is estimated that it will be late at night, and there are not many places with street lights on the road. It is still a bit unsafe to drive late at night.

Therefore, it is best to go to a hotel to rest for one night.

"Wait a moment, gentlemen."

The coachman nodded, and with a flick of his whip, the open carriage drove away smoothly.

Not long after, when it was almost dark, they came to a hotel with two floors. The hostess of the hotel led Bai Gui and Dongping Saburo to the second floor, where there were prepared beds.

When I first went up the stairs, big raindrops fell from the sky, and waterfalls hung from the eaves.

It's raining.

Bai Gui secretly rejoiced that he and Saburo Donghei chose to live in a nearby hotel, otherwise, if they really rushed back to Tokyo, it would probably rain at least once.

Not long after, the hostess came up, and on the wooden table she was carrying, there was a small stove with charcoal burning in it, and in the flat iron pot was the very fragrant Koshu boiled.

Koshu boil is a famous dish in Japan.The so-called Koshu is the old Kai country, which is now Yamanashi Prefecture, the territory of the Takeda family during the Warring States Period.Koshu grapes are abundant here, which can be used to brew white wine, also known as Koshu wine.Food cooked with Koshu wine is called Koshu boiled.

The boiling soup exudes the aroma of wine, and there are tumbling fish, some sliced ​​beef, daikon (radish), and some side vegetables.

"Would you like to have a share, gentlemen?"

asked the hostess.

If it hadn't been served, the two of them might not have the desire to eat, and they had almost eaten enough in Bieye, but now the Koshu boiled in the flat iron pot is really exciting.

After taking out five coins, this plate of Koshu cooking was placed on the low wooden table.

"I'm gonna start now!"

After Dongping Saburo said something, he couldn't wait to eat it.It is estimated that I chatted with that noble lady, paid attention to the etiquette when eating, and did not eat more meals, which led to wolfing down now.

Bai Gui also ate together.

After half a quarter of an hour, he suddenly heard the sound of shamisen and shakuhachi zithers below the hotel. He walked out, and stopped when he saw the geisha in the living room. , and went back.

Just curious.

The young female geisha left a deep impression on him last time.

……

Thanks to the literary reviews published in newspapers by popular writers such as Mori Ogai, Futaba Tei Shimi, and Tanabe Ryuko, the sales of this issue of Min Jin Bao surged, and another thousand copies were quickly printed. share.

It's just that the good times didn't last long, and after a day or two of sharp sales, they returned to a half-dead state.After all, although the works of literary giants can attract thousands of people, but only some people will buy the works they recommend.Most people just remember the title of the work, and don't have the desire to buy it...

But Bai Gui finally gained a certain reputation in the industry.

To the point of minor fame.

At the same time, the newspaper published the second issue of "The Great Qin Empire".What is pleasing is that although the sales volume of the newspaper is not much this time, there are many people who subscribe back, which means that the work is good and the readers are sticky, but it lacks a certain reputation, and it will take a certain amount of time to ferment. Can't rush.

a few days later.

The agreed time for Bai Gui to post the tactics post has finally arrived.

At this moment, the students from the first department, the second department, and the third department of No. 400 High School have basically come out of the classroom. The crowd is crowded, shoulder to shoulder, three to four hundred people, staring at the boy in front of the Yagyu Kendo Club.

Guardrails were also built around the Kendo club.

Bai Gui is holding a bamboo sword, about three feet and eight inches. He is holding it, and it is lighter than an iron knife. But in the first competition, they are all from the same school. There is no need to use serious weapons.

He bought this bamboo sword at a grocery store in Tokyo.
