Princess, please respect yourself!

Chapter 393

For others, handling such a large amount of physical gold is a bit troublesome, but for Luo Xing, it is very simple.

Whether it is the Dragon Scale Ring or the Chilong Secret Realm, they can be easily taken away.

It's the same wherever you put it.

But wealth comes to those who see it, and people can't be too stingy. The helpers present were given a gold brick each, and those who couldn't be taken away were turned into gold or silver notes and given to them.

This made Fang Tianfu and the others from the Tianlan Sect full of emotion. If it had been anyone else, they probably wouldn't have given him a penny. The garden had been bought by Luo Xing, and every plant and tree in it belonged to him.

What's more, they were guilty of meritorious deeds when they followed, which was also beneficial. No wonder the Liuli True Successor trusted him so much.

This is the style of those who do great things.

Keep digging.

Xiao Hui worked even harder, and later found some quite large hidden objects. The places where things were hidden were also all kinds of strange.

It is no longer possible to test who specifically hid it.

They also found several white bones in a sealed dry well. The oldest one turned into ashes when touched...

I also found a stack of gold tickets in a wall. The materials of gold tickets are very sophisticated and cannot be copied by ordinary people, and they can be kept for a long time. However, these gold tickets are no longer the ones in circulation. Can they be exchanged? I do not know.

Anyway, it's a lot of money, but the store that inherited the gold ticket is still there, but if the other party doesn't admit it, this thing can only be regarded as a collection.

It's such a shame to hide so much money for nothing.

I found some bits and pieces, which must be worth tens of thousands of taels of silver in total.

"Aru, use the money to buy some things tomorrow. We have to stay here for a while." Luo Xing ordered.

"Ok."

"Afu."

"Sir." Fang Tianfu bowed slightly.

"Choose your own room and settle down first, but don't go too far away from us. This garden is too big. I don't want to be without anyone when I look for you."

"clear."

After settling down, the first step is to establish contact with Qin Zhong. To contact you, you must have a letter eagle. However, the letter eagle in Yangzhou City needs to be registered. You can't just use it if you want. Once the private letter eagle is discovered, , it is very likely to be shot down directly.

There is no fear that the content of the communication will be known to Nanchu, but this may alarm the Jinyiwei of Nanchu’s intelligence department and cause unnecessary trouble to the subsequent work.

I can only borrow the Faith Eagle from Tianlan Sect.

The Xinying of Tianlan Sect has been registered with the Nanchu Intelligence Department, so even if he is stopped, there will be no problem.

The content of their communication must be encrypted, and it is impossible for Jin Yiwei to decipher it.

However, the release of Xinying must be at a registered fixed location, so the cooperation of the local Tianlan Sect stronghold in Yangzhou is required.

The Tianlan Sect is obviously willing. After all, they have suffered a lot from Nanchu, and now that they are being used by their own family, there is no need to refuse.

As for keeping secrets, someone in the Tianlan Sect really leaked the secret to Nanchu. Without Luo Xing taking action, the Tianlan Sect would deal with the person cleanly. Any large sect hates traitors who try to steal others.

After the contact issue is resolved.

The next step is to contact the person in charge of Nanya's lurking force in Yangzhou.

The meeting place is on a boat on Slender West Lake.

The owner of this painting boat, the Rou family, is the captain of Nanya who is lurking in Yangzhou. He is now the general, Ning Yurou.

Ning Yurou is Luo Xing's senior sister. Of course, Ning Yurou's master is not Meng Yi, but they both came from the secret camp.

Ning Yurou is three years older than Luo Xing, which means she is only 24 years old this year.

She didn't stay in the secret camp for long, only about five years, and had little interaction with Luo Xing. Later, she was specially trained and sent to Yangzhou. How she entered the Tuberose training base, there is no relevant record in this Nanya.

She became a full-time official very early and became the captain of the Yangzhou Intelligence Branch at the age of 22. Her abilities and methods are naturally extraordinary.

It can be seen that her talent is extremely high, and Nanya spent a lot of effort to train her. After the fall of Yangzhou, she was the only remaining member of her team who lurked.

Because she has extremely high authority and is directly under Nan Ya, this can be regarded as a backup.

Generally, the intelligence department in important areas will arrange a replacement team, and there is also one in Jinling City. Otherwise, how could the Nanya intelligence organization in Jinling City be rebuilt quickly after it was destroyed?

Ning Yurou runs a painting boat in Yangzhou, the land of fireworks, and she herself is well-known far and wide.

Ning Yurou is good at dancing, especially sword dancing. The local first-grade sect in Yangzhou once wanted to recruit her as a disciple, but she rejected them all.

The reason is simple, she can't stand the restraint.

Her martial arts skills were average, but her dancing talent was extremely high. In addition, she debuted very early. She quickly saved enough money to regain her freedom. Then she recruited some little sisters, bought a boat, and sailed on the Slender West Lake. Started a business.

Not to mention making money every day, but there is no problem in supporting myself and my sisters.

Luo Xing has never been to Yangzhou, but the two brothers Xiong Da and Xiong Er have traveled extensively, so they have naturally been to Yangzhou City many times.

This place of fireworks is what many people yearn for.

At night, the embankment of Slender West Lake is crowded with people. It is still in the first month of the year. Although it is not as lively as in previous years, it is indeed quite lively.

On the third night of his arrival in Yangzhou, Luo Xing left his beautiful wife at home and took his two brothers to visit Slender West Lake.

The temperature here is much higher than that in Luojing. The lake water is cold, but not below the freezing point. Therefore, the lights reflect this, sparkling and colorful. The lake water gently laps the embankment, making bursts of waves, just like a lover in the ear. Singing quietly.

The weeping willows on the shore hang upside down, with small green buds already sprouting out.

Spring in Yangzhou seems to have arrived.

Even this wind is as sharp as scissors, causing people's faces to hurt. By the lake, piers extend into the lake, and exquisite boats are docked on the side, some with three floors, some with five floors, and the highest. It has seven or eight floors. It is really like a moving castle on the water.

Ning Yurou's boat can only be ranked in the middle among the dozens of boats on the Slender West Lake. It is a three-story boat with everything you need to eat, drink and play.

Ning Yurou gave the painting a name: "Misty Rain Tower".

Very artistic and beautiful.

Some of the painted boats on Slender West Lake can be moved, while others are fixed in a certain place and cannot be moved. They may completely fall apart if they are moved. The bottom of the cabin is fixed to the bottom of the lake with thick wooden piles.

The ship Yanyulou can be moved, and it needs to be repaired every year at a huge cost.In addition to Ning Yurou, there are more than twenty sisters in the Yanyu Building, and not all of them are affiliated with Nanya.

But it's more or less related.

After all, they were on the same boat. If they were not one of her own, Ning Yurou would not let them on the boat. In addition, there were hundreds of maids, cooks, boatmen, etc. who relied on her for food on the boat.

These people all belong to Nanya and are all her subordinates.

The Yanyu Tower only entertains literati, unless they are familiar guests, and new guests need to be tested before they are qualified to board the ship.

In fact, many Huafang restaurants will use various means to reject customers who do not suit them. This is a big way of cheating customers.

However, some people are really not suitable to spend money in these boats, because the prices on the boats are not low, and some have a minimum price every night.

A little less than ten taels of silver to start, a little better than a hundred taels.

Yanyu Tower also has a minimum consumption, which starts at 30 taels of silver, and the women in Yanyu Tower are not prostitutes, unless they take the initiative to stay overnight.

In fact, it's just raising one's own value. This is what everyone does. Some have clearly marked prices, and some depend on their mood. They have the right to choose. If they don't want to, naturally they can't force it.

For a three-story boat, the first floor is usually a large space for singing and dancing performances. The middle part of the second and third floors is hollowed out, and there are seven or eight suites on both sides. The decoration depends on the financial resources of the owner.

Some boats with a large number of people have more compartments, while those with fewer people have fewer compartments.

Luo Xing took Xiong Da and Xiong Er onto the bow deck, but was stopped by someone: "Do you have the Yanyu building sign, sir?"

"There is no sign of Yanyu Building, what is that?" Luo Xing doesn't quite understand the rules. He is here to see Ning Yurou, not for fun, but if he wants to see Ning Yurou, he naturally has to enter Yanyu Building. .

"Every guest of my Yanyu Building will be given a sign as a proof of entering the building in the future. If the young master comes here for the first time, he needs to get a Yanyu Building sign, but certain conditions are required." The boy explained politely.

"What conditions?"

"You must show a talent, which can be leaving a poem, a calligraphy and painting, or playing a piece of music, and get the approval of any girl in Yanyu Tower before you can get it."

"Interesting, your access mechanism is very interesting, so that you can filter out some guests who do not meet your requirements." Luo Xing chuckled, "What if someone writes for you?"

"Poetry can be ghostwritten, but calligraphy can tell a person's talent and learning, so you can't ghostwrite it, right?" The boy chuckled.

"Yes, well, I'm not good at music, and poetry is not my strong point, so I'll just draw a picture." Luo Xing said, "But I don't have a reference. Otherwise, you can invite one of your girls to come over, and I will draw a picture." How about drawing a picture of her?"

"Master, wait a minute, let me go ask?"

After a while, the boy came out, followed by a young woman with slim feet, like a walking elf.

"Miss Ling'er, this young man wants to draw, but he lacks a reference."

"Young Master is polite."

"Hello, Miss Ling'er. My surname is Shen, and I have the same name as Hong. I am the seventh in the family." Luo Xing smiled slightly and introduced himself.

"Hello, Master Shen Qi."

"Miss Ling'er, can you find a place? It doesn't seem suitable for painting here?" Luo Xing spread his hands and said.

"Master Shen Qi, follow me." Miss Ling'er nodded slightly and led Luo Xing inside.

There were already many guests in the boat at this time, but the song and dance performance had not officially started yet, only some musicians were playing some cheerful tunes.

On the stage, the lights are overflowing with colors, illuminating the entire space beautifully.

Good guy, this night, just the fuel used for lighting is a huge expense. Therefore, it is necessary to set a minimum consumption standard, otherwise, it will be really difficult to maintain.

Not to mention that the monthly expenses for maintaining this team of musicians are not small, as well as maids, cooks, and guards.

Jealousy often happens on the boat. Without strong guards to control the situation, it is obviously impossible.

The guards of the town may be of the fourth or fifth grade, but that won't work if the guard leader's cultivation level is low. He must be a third-grade martial artist at least.

The annual salary of a third-grade martial artist is less than 3000 taels of silver. The price in this place is better, maybe several times higher.

But ordinary people who want to do this job are really not able to do it. Some Huafangs are related to certain big forces or gangs or sects in the city, so they can continue to do it here.

No background, no need to talk.

Luo Xing didn't have time to elaborate, but after his sketch came out, he was still shocked by Miss Ling'er. The sketch looked exactly like herself, exactly like the person in the mirror.

With such painting skills, he is naturally qualified to enter the Yanyu Tower.

Luo Xing was accompanied by two bodyguards. They looked like they were no ordinary warriors. They were dressed in simple and unpretentious clothes, but they showed nobility. They obviously had money to spend.

Such guests are the high-quality guests of Yanyu Tower. Naturally, Miss Ling'er started to treat them politely but suddenly became enthusiastic.

He took his Yanyu Tower sign and handed it to Luo Xing personally. There are two types of Yanyu Tower signs. One is ordinary, which can be obtained by passing the test. You can also enter the Yanyu Tower for consumption, but can you enter the girl's? It depends on your luck.

There is also one given by the girl herself, which has its own special mark. For example, Miss Ling'er's building sign has the word "ling" on it, which means that the sign is issued by her. If the guest shows it, unless She has guests to entertain, otherwise she has to go through her first. If it is inconvenient for her, other girls will take their turn.

The competition for customer resources has always been fierce. If she hadn't happened to have no customers today and came over to take a look at the waiter's suggestion, she really wouldn't have had such a good thing.

The person Luo Xing really wanted to see was Ning Yurou, but if he wanted to meet Ning Yurou directly, he would definitely not be able to do it. In this case, he could not reveal his identity directly.

After all, it was not easy for Ning Yurou to hide her identity from being discovered, and he did not want his identity to be known to others in the boat.

Miss Ling'er's room is the fifth room on the left after entering. After entering, there is a hollow lady screen, which just blocks the real scene inside.

"Master Shen, please!"

Luo Xing nodded slightly and followed Miss Ling'er into the room.

There is a round table made of huanghuali, surrounded by four round stools, each with a soft cushion. The exquisite pattern has a hint of the hazy beauty of the misty rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

The carved gums are somewhat different from the beds in the north. The shape is more exquisite and the workmanship is more meticulous.

Jiangnan's exquisite life is fully reflected in the decoration of this house. Every decoration and appliance reveals the owner's meticulousness and pickiness in life.

Women are too normal, especially women in this romantic place.

"Master Shen, please sit down."

"Thank you." Luo Xing sat sideways on a round stool near the screen at the door.
