[Comprehensive] I am not Michael

If we talk about the oldest occupations in the world, there is no doubt that they are the same in both the West and the East - assassins and prostitutes.

Assassins walk in the shadows, but J prostitutes, in the past hundred years, the whole of China was enslaved by the Manchus and many ethnic groups became slaves of the Manchus, which led to the rampant thinking of "laughing at the poor but not laughing at prostitutes", which also made Although almost all the j prostitutes did not end well, they are the ones who are the most open-minded and know how to enjoy themselves in time.

While the ladies of the family were still hesitating whether to step out of the house, these women in the mud had already changed into Han family dresses and took to the streets.

They are also the oriental women who are closest to fashion in this era.

They let go of their little feet, put on skirts and shirts with large sleeves, and went to the temple to burn incense in groups of three or four, or went to the shops near Huadeng Lane to buy themselves some new clothes and jewelry. .There are also those who take the talent route, they will go to the bookstore and buy some books to enrich themselves.

They seem to be flying freely, but in fact they are as cautious as small animals. They can tell at a glance whether the other party is a Song person or a Han person who has restored the Eguanbo belt of the Han and Tang Dynasties:

Men must be the best to distinguish, because people in the Song Dynasty don’t shave their hair, so if you look at the bareness under the square scarf, it must be a Han Chinese—who let Manchu’s hair shaving order make most men in the world stand up to it? What about the money rat tail that is a test of appearance?

If it is a woman, it will be a lot of trouble.

However, most of the time, you just need to look at the other person's way of walking first. The swaying one must be a Han woman with bound feet. spirit.

Most of the time, this judgment is basically accurate.

Of course, it is not ruled out that some Han men use the hair cut off by the women at home as their own wigs.At this time, you need to be careful to distinguish.

No, Hua Nongying, the oiran of Peony Building, met such a young man in the bookstore.

She looks very young, wearing a sky-blue robe, and looks ordinary in style, but if you look closely, you can vaguely distinguish the unique reflection of dark pattern Kesi on the hem of the other party's clothes.

More importantly, the noble temperament between the other party's brows.

Hua Nongying knew very well that the so-called noble temperament cannot be cultivated easily.Before the Manchu court fled westward, she also stayed in Luoyang, and Hua Nongying also came into contact with those Manchu aristocratic children.

The Niu Gulu family, the Jue Luo family, and Hua Nongying have all been in contact, so it can be said that they are those Manchu people who grew up in rich clothes and rich food, but the servility has been engraved in their bones!

But what about this young man?

Across the bookshelf, Hua Nongying carefully observed the other party, making sure again and again, and finally was sure that the other party was definitely from Song Dynasty.

——I just don’t know what to do.

——I don’t know what rules Song people have for us people!

As an oiran, Hua Nongying grew up in a place like Guijiayuaner since she was a child. She has learned to read and write, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and accounting and abacus. She will not stay in Peony Building until now!

But Hua Nongying also knows that before the change of dynasty, it is the most miserable time for these women and the only time for these women to change their own destiny!

Apart from other things, isn't that how Qinhuai Bayan from the previous dynasty came here?

If you seize the opportunity, you will be able to jump out of the pit of fire just like Liu Rushi.

If you don't seize the opportunity, you will be gathered together by those officials, and either be offered to the head or enjoyed by those officials.

I don't know where my fate is, and now almost every flower girl in Luoyang City is muddling along.Hua Nongying thought she was beautiful and talented, and she didn't want to fall into that miserable place, so she had to seize every opportunity.

Just when Hua Nongying was thinking about how to strike up a conversation with the other party, she saw the young man suddenly took out a snail and quickly scribbled on the book, and then the bookstore manager hurried over:

"This gentleman~! Small shop with a small capital! Please, please, please be merciful."

Seeing that the other party was obviously taken aback, Hua Nongying had a self-deprecating smile on his face, knowing that his chance had come.

Unexpectedly, the other party actually took out a thin gold leaf from his sleeve and handed it to the shopkeeper:

"Sorry, I made a mistake. I bought the book."

The shopkeeper also breathed a sigh of relief.

Those who can make a living on the street have developed a pair of piercing eyes.Hua Nongying could tell that the other party was from the Song Dynasty, and the shopkeeper of this bookstore was the same.

He also saw that this young man was from Song Dynasty.Now that the people of Song Dynasty are powerful, ordinary people like him, who can only be obedient citizens, are also afraid of conflicts with the other party.

The shopkeeper of the bookstore said: "I'm sorry, sir, this is the third book you have painted in our store."

The young man said "ah": "The shopkeeper means that it is not enough."

"Yes, yes, the book in your hand is the second volume of "Yongle Dadian" in the official engraved edition. The official engraved editions of the previous dynasty are rare now. Counting Cai Cai's Yulan and "Zizhi Tongjian" ", this, this gold leaf is only three taels, which is equivalent to 30 taels of silver, which is not enough at all."

Because the other party was from Song Dynasty, the shopkeeper didn't dare to stand up.But the other party has put their hands on the treasure of the store, "Yongle Dadian", and the shopkeeper will not be able to stand up.

The young man suddenly realized.

"I see! However, if it's about ready-made gold and silver, I really don't have enough on me. This is five hundred guan, you can go to the yamen gate department to exchange for cash now. During this period, I will always stay here."

This is true.

In fact, gold and silver are too heavy, as are copper coins, so most of the time, Song people would not bring too much cash with them when they went to the streets, even if they took their servants with them.One or two hundred copper coins, plus a few silver curly seeds, a few gold melon seeds and a few gold leaves, and that's it.

If the transaction is of a higher amount, it is either bookkeeping or handover.

The shopkeeper whispered: "800 taels, and the official engraved version of "Yongle Dadian" by the former court costs 800 taels."

Hua Nongying thought that the other party would be angry, but she didn't want the other party to really show another card.

The shopkeeper was very happy, and exchanged voices with the waiter to clear out the table next to him, and served some refreshments, while he went out with two sheets.

He wants to exchange the silver as soon as possible.

Although it is said that dots are indispensable, the shopkeeper optimistically estimates that for the 800 taels of Jiaozi, he can get back almost 640 taels after deducting the dotted money.

That's enough.

At least the capital is saved.
