Tough Princess : Once Upon A Brothel Chapter 40

At this time, Pei Moning had set up a martial club in Jing City, asked friends in the Jing City to help find craftsmen, renovated the club according to the requirements he said and wrote letters to inform the warriors that he knew well from all corners of the country to come to teach.

After all the orders were completed, the only person needed was the one who could manage to pacify the martial club. If you want the martial club to expand more and more, it was necessary to find someone who was convincing. Pei Moning thought for a moment and then decided on the candidate.

This person's name was Runyu, and the t.i.tle of rivers and lakes is Ghost Immortal. He was just like his name: his face was as clear as the jade while he was like a jade tree, and he preferred the white clothes.

Pei Moning had the luck to see the ghost fairy performing a sword dance. The moves were strange, and the spirit of the sword gas sprayed was like giving life, and walked around him. His coat fluttered with the wind, and there were moves but seemed to be none. At this moment, it created a kind of illusion that there was no dust on his foot and he was light as a floating cloud. It seemed that if he performed the sword dance in this way, he would like to go back with the wind. So, there was no exaggeration to call him the ghost fairy.

At that time, Pei Moning decided to make a friend with him, and he spent much thought on figuring out that Runyu went to w.a.n.gyou Cliff for a while every day.

Pei Moning prepared a little feast next to w.a.n.gyou Cliff and invited Runyu to drink with him. In the beginning, Runyu ignored it. It took more than three months for Runyu to walk slowly to him. Pei Moning gave the monkey exactly what he wanted. Since providence did not let down a man who did his best, they became best friends.

Runyu didn't like the liveliness, and always preferred to be alone. Asking him to go out of the mountain this time would take pains again. The only thing needed was that he showed up in the martial club. Pei Moning knew that according to Runyu's temperament, he would ignore it if he saw the content of the letter. So, it seemed that he still needed to ask him in person. Then, he got up and went to w.a.n.gyou Mountain.

…

Lin Mei had not been idle these days. She set up a house and called in the craftsmen who built the Blossoming Peach before. She also learned to build the same brothel as Yang Zijin did. Taking about the girl's talents, her girl was proficient in all aspects and was by no means inferior to the Blossoming Peach ‘s girls.

Early in the morning, Lin Mei let someone release the news that Moonlight would also open a brothel like Blossoming Peach in Jing City.

On the opening day, the front door was very busy. Everyone knew that Moonlight and Spring Breeze were the opposite of each other. Now Moonlight learned to open the same kind of brothel from Spring Breeze. They all wanted to come over and join in the fun. They wanted to see which one is better and to see whether the two compet.i.tors would offend each other openly.

Lin Mei cleared her throat and said loudly to the crowd, “Be quiet and listen to me first.”

Looking at the crowd calmed down, Lin Mei continued, “Today we open Moonlight, and the food and drinks of all the guests who come in today will be on me. Please do me the honor to come.”

The crowd heard Lin Mei saying this, and someone questioned with doubt, “So we don't need to pay for food and drinks?”

“Yes, yes, today only. Please enter in order.” Lin Mei replied.

The crowd said after confirmation….

“There is such a good thing. Proprietress, I'm in.”

“Go and queue up at the back.”

“The girls of the Blossoming Peach are too serious. I wonder if the girls of the Moonlight are capable of flirting?”

Seeing a long queue, Lin Mei smiled, because this was exactly the result she wanted. To do business well, you had to first play the emotional card well, and naturally, you would not have to worry about the business in the future…

From the day of opening, Moonlight is overcrowded and all the seats are taken!

The business of the Blossoming Peach was depressing from the beginning of the rumors. And now Moonlight opened, no one came!

Looking at the girls who sighed, Yang Zijin also felt a headache. It seemed that it was time to start acting.

Yang Zijin decided to act according to the previous plan, and she called Xian.

“Young Master , what may I do for you?” Xian asked.

Yang Zijin took out two hundred banknotes and handed them to Xian. She said, “I'm going to set up a shop. Go and ask if there is any shop to sell, preferably, in a prosperous area.”

“Young Master, don't worry. I shall take full charge of this matter.” Xian said while taking the banknotes.

Xian asked again, “Young Master, is there anything else?”

After thinking for a while, she said, “Please bring me the most tailor-made tailor in Jing City.”

“Okay. If there's nothing else, I am going to withdraw,” said Xian and he was about to leave.

He heard the Young Master saying, “Go and tell the people outside that if there is nothing serious, don't bother me.”

When she finished speaking, she sat down and took out her homemade charcoal crayon. She wanted to draw the design of the underwear first.

Considering that women nowadays used mostly corsages and belly bands and the b.r.e.a.s.t.s of women who had had children will inevitably sag or shrink, I decided to design two styles first: the gathering model and the thickening model, and develop more other styles depending on how the benefit was.

It's already time for lunch. Not having seen Yang Zijin coming out yet, Wufu Lu'an stood outside the courtyard, looked inward, and dared not ask her to have the meal, since Xian had told them not to bother her unless there was something serious.

At this point, in the room, in front of Yang Zijin was a bunch of paper b.a.l.l.s. She was going to design the perfect bra. Size and dimension should all be considered until she was completely satisfied.

After the bra was designed, Yang Zijin drew several western European style party frocks of the palace. She didn't put down the charcoal crayon and went out of the room until she finally determined the style after modifying again and again.

Wufu Lu'an had been waiting at the gate of the yard. Seeing Yang Zijin came out, he hurried forward and said, “Young Master, I let the cook of the kitchen save the food for you and I am serving it for you.”

Hearing them talking about food, Yang Zijin felt hungry and nodded. Looking at Wufu Lu'an, Yang Zijin couldn't help but felt comforted.

While Yang Zijin was having her meal, Xian came back in a great hurry.

Xian came to her and said with smiles, “Young Master, I've done what you told me. Here are the remaining ninety banknotes.”

Then, Xian put the ninety banknotes on the table.

“Where is the location of the shop?” Yang Zijin asked.

Xian replied with pride, “Don't worry, Young Master. The location is absolutely good. There is a three-bay shop front and the backyard. This is an old shop. The boss is old, and he has no children. He doesn't want to do the business anymore, so he sold it at a low price.”

“So, what about the tailor?” Yang Zijin continued asking.

Xian nodded and said, “I've properly found one, and I paid two banknotes as the earnest. The tailor said that he be available at our beck and call.”

“Okay, well done. Xian's jobs are always rea.s.suring. Take the money, and there will be something else for you to do.” Yang Zijin praised Xian.

Hearing Yang Zijin said that, Xian picked up the banknotes and scratched his head shyly.

Now that there was a shop and a tailor, the next step would be to choose the fabric. Because it was underwear, the fabric must be soft and comfortable. Yang Zijin decided to choose the fabric by herself.

Noticing that it was not early, she would go there tomorrow morning. Today, she has already been exhausted by designing the drawings. She gave some instructions and returned to the mansion of Marquis early.

She found that she rarely had seen Shuo Ling these days, and had never seen him have dinner. Sometimes he was seen remotely in the mansion. But he always bypa.s.sed, as if he was hiding from her on purpose. However, it was fine and she found it was pretty quiet.

The next day, Yang Zijin got up early. When she left the house, she saw that Xian had been waiting for her outside the door. They went to the most famous cloth shop in Jing City according to Xian.

The words: Jinxiu Villa came into sight. They came into the shop and saw that the shop clerk was cleaning.

Seeing them, he quickly put down the rag in his hand and greeted with a smile, “h.e.l.lo, Young Master. What kind of fabric do you want? We have everything here!”

“Not decided yet. We're going to decide after browsing your merchandise,” replied Xian since Yang Zijin was silent.

The clerk understood and said, “Young Master, then come in please.”

They followed the clerk and came into the display room inside.

The young clerk introduced to Yang Zijin one by one that the types of fabrics stored in each house are different. There are superior silk brocades, medium printed cotton cloths, and worst cotton and linen cloths.

“So, Young Master, have you made up your mind?” The young clerk asked again after the introduction.

After thinking for a while, Yang Zijin thought that it was better to choose cotton for underwear and the cost would not be too high. So, she replied, “Let's take a look at the cotton cloths first.”

“Young Master, this way please,” he said as he pushed the door plank forward to open the door on the left side.

A rush of the smell of the cloth in the house came, and the clerk said to Yang Zijin, “These cottons are of different grades. The superior cotton cloths have a soft feel, are hygroscopic and breathable. The cloths made of it have a good elasticity and are drapery.”

Yang Zijin touched the cloth that the young clerk was talking about, and it felt really good.

Seeing Yang Zijin not speaking, the clerk walked to another row of cloth and said, “Here're the normal cotton cloths, although….”

While the clerk was talking, Yang Zijin interrupted him, “Take one each for the pink, light blue, gray, white, and black one first.”

“No problem, Young Master,” said the young clerk with a happy face when he saw Yang Zijin was so straightforward that the deal would be made successfully so fast.

Then Yang Zijin said, “Take me to see some silk brocades.”

When the young clerk heard her words, he wondered if there would be a good business today. He covered the excitement in mind, hurried forward, and said, “Young Master, follow me.”

At the moment the young clerk opened the door of the room, Yang Zijin was shocked for a while. Even if she lived in modern times and had seen lots of fantastic treasures, nothing she had seen before could shock her more than the silk brocades in this room. Then she turned to Xian and found that he froze in place. Obviously, he was shocked by this scene, too.

Again, here came the voice of the young clerk, “Young Master, here is the superior silk. Some ladies and young ladies of the family of public officials come here to buy cloth and custom-made clothes.”

Yang Zijin walked around, selected a few silk brocades whose colors were quite elegant and graceful, and took two gauzes.

The young clerk beside heard that Yang Zijin wanted to take these silk brocades, and couldn't help feeling that his ears were out of order. Even if the young ladies from the family of public officials come here, these silk brocades are too elegant for them to choose. He couldn't help wondering what the h.e.l.l was the background of this Young Master!

Seeing the dazed boy, Yang Zijin cleared his throat and said, “Do you have the products in stock now?”

“Yes… yes… Young Master, please go to the lobby for tea, and I'll call the shopkeeper.” The young clerk came to himself and nodded.

Such a big business couldn't be messed up by him, and it is better to let the shopkeeper come forward. After leading Yang Zijin and Xian to the lobby and pouring the tea for them, he trotted on his way to the backyard.

Just after the time of having a cup of tea, they heard a voice coming out from behind, “Welcome our valued customers! Please forgive me for not greeting you.”

The person who came was in his early fifties, looking astute. At this time, he bowed to Yang Zijin with his hands folded with a smile on his face. It seemed that this person should be the shopkeeper.
