Chapter 10

Yaru here is struggling desperately for her own future.On the other side, fourth master and thirteenth master bid farewell to their busy lives.After more than a month of unannounced inspections and unannounced visits, Yinzhen finally found out the fact that the governor of Jiangnan had illicit connections with salt merchants. The governor of Jiangnan's house was raided with only evidence. something.What's more, there is the richest man in Jiangnan waiting behind.Yinzhen also thought that Huang Ama's secret decree had also come, and asked him to do everything cheaply.

On this day, in the back garden of the governor of Jiangnan, He Zhizhang, the governor of Jiangnan, filled the cup of the thirteenth master with green bamboo leaves with a smile on his face, and said to the fourth master with a smile, "Master Baylor, the accounts have been cleared, and I don't know what the next step is." What are you going to do, Lord?"

The fourth master smiled and said nothing, while the thirteenth master said happily from the side, "Huang Ama sympathizes with our brother's hard work, and specially gave us a vacation to take a good stroll in Yangzhou city. I don't know if Mr. He has any recommendations?"

He Zhizhang smiled brightly, "Master Thirteen is asking the right person, I really have a proposal." As he spoke, he glanced at Fourth Master pointedly.

Fourth Master put down his wine glass, paused for a moment and said with a smile, "If you have anything to say, just say it, don't be a fool, Thirteenth Brother is famous for his hard work Thirteenth Lang, be careful that he makes trouble with you."

He Zhizhang smiled, and stroked the delicate beard he had groomed on his chin.After considering the words and sentences, he said slowly, "In a few days, the annual oiran competition in Yangzhou City will be held. The top eight famous buildings in Yangzhou City will participate. The top three talented women will be selected and named according to the names of the imperial examinations. For the No. [-] Oiran Scholar, No. [-] Oiran No. [-], and No. [-] Oiran No. [-], the three women won the rights to a few beauties through bidding after the Oiran Competition. This is a major event here.”

Looking at Fourth Master's still cold expression, he threw down the bait and said, "At that time, I can introduce some friends to Fourth Master and Thirteenth Master."

"Oh? Friend? What kind of friend can give you an introduction from Mr. He?" Thirteenth Master asked curiously.

"Hehe~ These few friends are amazing, you two masters must have made this trip worthwhile!" He Zhizhang smiled and said nothing.

Fourth Master and Thirteenth Master looked at each other and smiled, the snake was finally willing to move.After acting with He Zhizhang for more than a month, I finally gained something.

He Zhizhang looked at the two nobles who were smiling silently, but thought in his heart with disdain, they are just two noble sons who don't eat the fireworks of the world, you can find a ghost just by looking at the account book.Waiting for a while to drag you into this gold-selling cave, you are still pawns in our hands, and those governors who are thinking about walking like horses, don’t they all become obedient after cleaning up like this!This Jiangnan is not the territory of me and several general merchants.Thinking of the pride in my heart is unstoppable.

There are six competitions in the Oiran Competition including calligraphy, Danqing, musical instruments, poetry recitation, dance, chess and singing.Mother Li fully supported Yaru's preparations. Based on these items, Yaru made use of her strengths and avoided her weaknesses to prepare several programs.

With intense preparations, the annual Oiran Competition organized by local salt merchants kicked off.Mother Li resolutely gave up the four girls except Yaru, and only reported Yaru and another famous girl in the building.The registration fee was 1000 taels of silver per person, and the distressed mother Li scolded the girl in the building.Only the top three girls get bonuses, and all the money paid by other participating girls is in vain.This is not a small sum!It hurts to think about it.

The night before, Yaru and the girl named Baozhu were called into the room by Mama Li. After sitting down, Mama Li didn’t say a word, and sighed while holding the teacup. He cleared his throat and said, "Our building has registered the two of you to participate in the Oiran Competition. I asked someone to inquire about it. There are a total of fifteen people participating this time. Except for one person from Manchunyuan, the rest are two people. Among them There are seven new entrants who are just like Yaju, and the rest are old people. By the way, Yaju, are you sure you don’t want to change your name?” Mother Li asked Yaju this question again. Why do you need such a ladylike name?

But Yaru thought of her friends and fans in her previous life who kindly called her "Yaju... Yaru..." and couldn't help but stand there for a while.The past is like the scenery on the side of the road, one page after another is quickly turned in front of you.But in the bottom of my heart, I understand that the past is the past, even if I look back, what I see is not the same as before.

From then on, there was really no one to trust, nothing to fall in love with, only this struggle without gunpowder left.However, I can still live a good life. I believe that God must have his intentions in bringing me to this strange place. I can live a good life!Yaru cheered for herself silently in her heart.

Seeing that Yaru was in a daze again, Li's mother couldn't help sighing, and felt confused about getting the prize money back again, so she changed her mind and continued to introduce, "I won't say much about the primary election. Tomorrow, I will draw lots to choose the event, and you all go down." Take a good rest, the first round is full of crooked melons and dates, don't worry, after the first round I will help you find out about your opponents, go on down."

"Mom rested earlier, and the servants will leave first." After saluting, the two said and exited the room.Standing at the door, neither of them spoke, nor did they intend to leave. Yaru waited to meet with Baozhu and did not speak, and planned to leave after a salute. You may not be able to survive the first round, you have to work hard, only when you get the ranking, you have the opportunity to choose the guests, not the guests pick you." After speaking, he took a deep look at Yaru, which contained thousands of things. Unspeakable bitterness.

Yaru looked at Baozhu's eyes with deep meaning, opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word.
