The heroine Bai Xianchen and four girlfriends

Seventeen:

As night falls, in the brightly lit Wu Village, located in the southwest corner of the village, there is a deserted tavern. The proprietress of the tavern is a woman over forty years old. People are generally generous and polite, dressed in blue silk and satin, wearing two gold rings on their fingers, and a gold earring on each ear, looking extremely wealthy.

Four figures walked slowly on the road, and soon saw two sons leading two servants to the tavern, the waiter at the entrance of the tavern hurriedly bowed his hands to the four, and warmly invited the four to enter the tavern.

This tavern is not big at all, it only has a small front hall with several tables and chairs, the area is not as big as the hall of Chen Xiaobaa Inn.

There is a counter for the shopkeeper at the entrance, and the waiter leads the four guests into the inn. Standing behind the counter, a woman who looks very wealthy just nods and smiles at the four of them, neither greets nor speaks to the four of them. The woman should be the proprietress of this shop.

Xiaoer invited four guests to sit down, but saw one of them, a handsome young man in green clothes, stopped in front of the counter, and the other three followed him after seeing this, only to hear the young man smiled and said: "Boss, do you have any questions?" White cloth, red cloth for sale?"

The originally indifferent proprietress's eyes lit up when she heard this, she glanced at the four people, and smiled knowingly: "So it's the four girls! Please follow me..."

Saying that, the proprietress turned around and lifted the door cloth, and entered a room through a small door.

Xiao Er made a "please" gesture, the young man in green followed him unceremoniously, and the other three followed closely behind the young man in green.

Behind the small door is a narrow storage room, which looks ordinary and contains nothing.

I saw that the proprietress bent down and opened a square wooden board from the ground, revealing a small square hole with a side length of one meter. A narrow stone ladder leads directly from the hole to the underground. It seems that the underground should be a wine cellar, but why is the wine cellar? There is fire, why can there be noisy voices, and the place is hidden so hidden, it is like an underground casino, it is extremely suspicious!

The proprietress went down first, and the young man in green followed. The other young man in purple saw that the young man in green had gone down, and followed without hesitation, saving two men in gray and rags. , The servant wearing a cloth cap seemed to be a little worried, he hesitated for a while before quickly following.

The tunnel was much longer than expected. The proprietress led the four of them up three flights of stairs before arriving at the destination. Suddenly, there was an uproar of voices, and a hot breath came over their faces. Except for the young man in green, the other three were all surprised. I opened my eyes wide, and I didn't expect that the underground of a small inn was three times larger than the above ground, and it was full of people!

The proprietress nodded and smiled at the young man in green, then turned to the other three and said, "It's your first time, you can tell that you are new fans and that handsome lady is an old fan - I'll go upstairs first I hope you can buy good things and have fun.”

The four nodded and smiled at the proprietress, and after the proprietress left, a servant said: "There is such a place in this Wu village, I didn't know it!"

Undoubtedly, these four people are Bai Xianchen, Liu Hongyan, Jun Yiran, and Chen Xiaobaa. The "old fan" green-clothed boy is naturally Jun Yiran, and the purple-clothed boy is Liu Hongyan. The "disgraced face" dressed alone is Bai Xianchen with heavy makeup.

The three of them looked around curiously, and saw a huge "mouth"-shaped counter set in the center of the space, dozens of braziers, some hung in the air with iron chains, and some placed on the wall with iron frames. The space is bright.

In the counter, there are many uniformly dressed women in pink clothes who are shop assistants, and outside the counter are all kinds of customers. Groups of people move around the big counter, with serious expressions as if they are picking out some expensive products. The customers were screaming and asking the price with the clerk, and the scene was extremely lively.

Jun Yiran led the three of them into the front of the counter, and immediately, a female shop assistant about 20 years old greeted her with a smile on her face, and asked: "The four guests must be ladies dressed as sons, may I ask?" what do you need?"

Now Bai Xianchen was depressed, the four of them were dressed as men with her own hands, although they didn't change their appearance carefully, they shouldn't be recognized by others casually, so she lowered her voice so as not to reveal her true colors voice, asked: "How do you know we are women?"

The female clerk covered her mouth with a chuckle and said: "This lady is really fun. We have very rare male customers here. Most of the people who support and love 'Miss Xiaohong' are also sisters, so I dare to guess the four It should be a woman, there may be some concerns to dress up like this."

The so-called "Miss Xiaohong" is the pet name of "white fans" for Bai Xiaohong, and this underground exchange is where "white fans" buy and sell items related to Bai Xianchen, or verify the authenticity of the items!

As for why the four of them came here, it involves the "making money" that Jun Yiran said——

At that time, Chen Xiaobaa wanted to get back the money, so Jun Yiran proposed to go to the "white powder trading market" and sell Bai Xianchen's signature and objects, and he would definitely make a lot of money!

Liu Hongyan thinks this plan is very good, after all, Bai Xianchen is in "their hands", and if they strip off Bai Xianchen's body and sell them, they can probably earn a hundred dollars, even paying back "the red flowers, the willow greens" !

Bai Xianchen didn't have any voting rights. Once Jun and Liu agreed, he began to prepare for signing and make up for the four of them.

The men's clothes worn by Jun Yiran and Liu Hongyan were bought by Bai Xianchen for him, but he didn't want to wear them to look more heroic than himself.

As for Chen Xiaobaa, Bai Xianchen originally thought that she didn't have to follow, but she insisted on opening her eyes, so Bai Xianchen followed her wish and dressed up for her.

After everything was finished, it was almost dark, and the four of them found a place to settle their dinner, and followed Jun Yiran to this place...

After reminiscing about the past, Bai Xianchen pulled back his thoughts and returned to reality. Seeing that Jun Yiran was talking with the clerk, he looked around boredly, and was disappointed to find that the place was really full of women, and the counters were full of women. , and they were all objects that Bai Xianchen had used, such as broken wooden combs, broken pianos, worn clothes, etc.

At this time, an old woman not far away shouted at the clerk with an angry face: "What! You say my 'Xiaohong's signature' is fake!?"

The clerk nodded, and took out a real one mounted on a scroll, pointed out some differences, and said professionally: "Look, aunt, the writing written by Miss Xiaohong is immature and cute, it is by no means like yours. It's just pretending, look at this scribble, it's clearly the handwriting of Miss Xiaohong forged by a calligrapher, specially to deceive "fans" who don't "join the group" like you, so ah, if you want to buy the real thing, download it It’s safer to come back to our shop!”

As soon as the signature on the scroll was unfolded, many people flocked to it immediately, asking for the price with silver in their hands, shouting that they were willing to buy at a high price.

Jun Yiran smiled slightly at the female shop assistant in front of him, took out a signature from his pocket, and said, "I'm here to sell things, do you think this signature is true or false?"

The female clerk took the simple white paper, and saw the words "Bai Xiaohong" impressively signed on the white paper. The handwriting of the words must have been written by Bai Xianchen, but...

The female clerk frowned slightly, with weird eyes, held the white paper in the air, looked through the firelight, then shook her head, and asked Jun Yiran: "Dare to ask this girl, where did you get the word?" of?"

Chen Xiaobai originally followed with the idea of ​​making a fortune, but seeing the suspicion in the eyes of the female shop assistant, she guessed that the transaction was not as simple as she imagined, and couldn't help asking knowingly, "Why, isn't this real?"

The female clerk shook her head again, hesitated for a moment, and said, "This is Miss Xiaohong's handwriting, but the handwriting is so new, and it's not made of 'flowers, willows and green' paper, it's really strange."

When Bai Xianchen and Chen Xiaobaa heard this, their eyes widened in surprise, secretly admiring that these shop assistants were all experts in appraisal, and they were really good at observing the subtleties.

"It's inconvenient for me to say more about the origin of the item, but I originally wanted to take it back as a treasure and keep it for myself, but when I encountered an urgent need for money, I had no choice but to sell it here. Make an offer."

Hearing Jun Yiran's words, the clerk shook his head and sighed: "Originally we bought a signature for four taels of silver, but your signature is genuine, but its origin is unknown, so we can only sell it for one tael." silver."

Jun Yiran frowned, took back the paper full of displeasure, thought for a while and took out a small square box from his bosom, handed it carefully to the clerk, asking her to have a look.

The clerk opened the box, and saw a bundle of hair tied with red string inside. Suddenly, the clerk's face changed slightly, and he took the box to his nose with trembling hands and sniffed it. He was surprised and overjoyed!

"You are... this is..."

Seeing that the clerk was so excited that he couldn't even speak clearly, Jun Yiran smiled confidently: "This is the hair of 'Miss Xiaohong', you are a discerning person, why don't you compare it with the real one."

The clerk trembled slightly, nodded to Jun Yiran, and waved to other clerks, then took out a small wooden box with "little red hair" from under the counter, opened it and surrounded by three or four clerks Compare them together, and looking at their expressions, it is undoubtedly a look of discovering a treasure.

Bai Xianchen looked weird, and leaned into Jun Yiran's ear and whispered, "Why do you have my hair?"

Jun Yiran smiled embarrassedly, and replied in a low voice: "In the afternoon, I secretly cut it on Xianchen's back, and I wanted to take it back for collection..."

Seeing several shop assistants gathered together to appreciate things, the customers were curious, so they all gathered around to watch the excitement.

Finally, the appreciation was over, the shop assistants suppressed the excitement in their hearts, and said calmly: "It's true, I can exchange ten taels of silver with you!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone around was in an uproar, and immediately someone said to Jun Yiran first: "Girl, the store is very stingy, they only pay ten taels of silver, I will give you eleven taels, you are satisfied!"

Suddenly, someone raised the price again, and then, the price went from 11 taels to 12 taels, from 12 taels to 13 taels... until it reached 17 taels!

Seeing this, the clerk discussed it, gritted his teeth, and raised the price: "20 taels of silver, no more!"

20 taels of silver! —It even doubled!

When everyone heard the price, they had to give up one after another, and Jun Yiran also nodded in satisfaction, trading and selling the hair.

Seeing that a bundle of hair can be sold for such a high price, Chen Xiaobaa couldn't help but look at Bai Xianchen up and down.

Getting 20 taels was a great thing, but even so, it was only half of 40 taels—the four looked at each other, squeezed out from the crowd, and gathered in a corner to discuss in low voices.

"What should I do with the 20 taels left?" Bai Xianchen asked in distress.

"It's not easy." Chen Xiaobaa thought in her heart to ask Bai Xianchen for some more hair after she went back, and then blurted out, "Just another haircut."

After Jun Yiran heard this, he shook his head and said, "It's best not to, it's easy to get suspicious if you take the same thing twice."

"Then let's sell those autographs. It's only a tael of silver, and you can make a little money." Bai Xianchen waved his hand and said nonchalantly.

Jun Yiran hurriedly shook his head in protest and said, "It's a pity that those signatures were sold for a tael of silver, why don't you let me take them back and frame them!"

Bai Xianchen smiled "puchi" and said, "I'll sell it if I sell it, and I'll just write you a few more when I get back."

"But it's only seven or eight taels of silver if they're all sold. It's not even 40 taels."

"It's a pity, I don't have any old things with me, otherwise I can exchange money..."

Listening to the discussion of the three, Liu Hongyan, who had been standing aside without speaking, suddenly said, "How difficult is it to sell at a high price?"

The eyes of the three of them immediately turned to Liu Hongyan. Liu Hongyan reached out to ask for an autograph, and then took out a flat, round porcelain plate from the hidden pocket of her clothes. After opening it, she saw that the inside was bright red Rouge!

Jun Yiran suddenly realized, and couldn't help but admire Liu Hongyan's flexible thinking and sheer intelligence! ——The signing price is very low, but if Bai Xianchen puts another kiss on the signature, why worry that the signature will not be sold?

Chen Xiaobaa woke up, just like Jun Yiran, his eyes were filled with confidence and spirit, only Bai Xianchen protested desperately with his face flushed: "No way! How can this be possible! If it is bought by some pervert, every day If you kiss and kiss my lips, then I won't be able to get married!"

Liu Hongyan pursed her lips and smirked, took Bai Xianchen's hand, and without Bai Xianchen's resistance, pulled her up the stairs in big strides. The two of them walked up to the second floor of the stairs together, and the stairs turned a corner. No one can see them, but they can be seen clearly in the dim light.

"You guys are going too far... I'm going to be defiled..." Bai Xianchen was crying, struggling to escape, with a very playful expression.

Liu Hongyan firmly held Bai Xianchen's wrist, ignored Bai Xianchen's protest, opened the porcelain plate with one hand, dipped her finger in the bright red rouge, and stretched it towards Bai Xianchen's face.

Bai Xianchen couldn't escape, so he had to turn his head to dodge to show his reluctance.

Liu Hongyan frowned impatiently, but seeing Bai Xianchen's pouting grievance, she couldn't help laughing, her eyes rolled, as if she had come up with some idea, she withdrew her finger and wiped the rouge on her face on the lips.

Seeing this, Bai Xianchen felt surprised and puzzled, "Hey—" before he could react, Liu Hongyan's lips were kissed fiercely...
