    Three days later, Dalang took Xinhu to the bustling Huainan City.  Looking at the tall city gate from a distance, Xinhu became excited. There were prostitutes from far away in Kyoto, and they had the most decadent life. Xinhu came here just for these reputations.

    It was a coincidence that the two of them came during the Lotus Festival held every three years in Huainan.  Therefore, there are many people entering the city, including romantic young men from all directions and businessmen who come to take advantage of the opportunity to do business.  Dalang and Xin Hu were not conspicuous among the people lining up to enter the city.  Mainly because there were only two of them and their carry-on luggage was very simple, so no one cared about them at all.

    "Why are there so many people?" Xin Hu queued up honestly and asked Da Lang in a low voice.

    Several young men lining up in front of them heard his question and said with a smile: "Little brother, don't you know that the Lotus Festival is coming soon? Of course there are many people coming, and everyone comes here because of its reputation.  Yes. Not only are there many people today, there have been so many people in the past few days."

    "I would like to ask you brothers, what is the reason for the Lotus Festival?" Xin Hu asked.

    He always dresses as a man when he goes out, and almost no one notices that she is a woman, because even when she speaks, she can always use a falsetto.  This is because in modern times, she once imitated the singing style of a male and female duet for a period of time.  So she can say a few common words in a male voice.

    When she first performed this stunt, even Dalang was shocked.

    "What else can you do, just show off your skills." Dalang said with a smile.

    "Well, I have to let you discover this slowly. If I tell you all at once, wouldn't it be boring?" Xin Hu laughed.

    "You have to do it." Dalang looked at her proud look and shook his head with a smile.

    However, Dalang was a little curious in his heart. In fact, he had always been curious about the origin of Xinhu.  From the first meeting, he didn't believe that a country girl could have so much knowledge.  However, when he thought about his new life, he was no longer so curious about how Xin Hu had learned so much at such a young age.  With his own experience, he felt that maybe Xinhu was like him.

    But now, Xin Hu once again aroused his curiosity to trace his roots.

    Because he felt that Xinhu was becoming more and more worthy of discovery. The deeper he got to know him, the more he understood what a wonderful person Xinhu was.  Although he has interacted with very few women, even among men, he has never seen anyone like Xin Hu who knows everything.  No matter how knowledgeable people are, they usually focus on a certain point, unlike Xinhu who seems to be able to get a foot in everything.

    "Oh, you two brothers don't know about the Lotus Festival yet?" A young man laughed.

    When the people around him heard this, they all laughed, and some kind-hearted people immediately started to promote Xinhu.

    Dalang didn¡¯t expect that a lotus festival could attract so many people.  No wonder King Yan asked him to come to Huainan to see it.  This level of prosperity is comparable to that of the capital city.  If you do business here, you won't have to worry about making money.

    The so-called Lotus Festival is a day for competition among various Goulan painting gardens. The people who compete are naturally nothing more than those women who compete for beauty.  For these famous geishas, ??apart from their beauty, their talent is the most important.

    You have to be proficient in poetry, poetry, music, playing and singing, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and you have to be as beautiful as a fairy.  It costs a lot to train a girl like this. Of course, this girl becomes famous and brings a steady stream of money to the boss.

    The reputation that an oiran brings to a goulan can be passed down for a long time. A girl will start picking up guests at the age of fifteen and will not stop until she is twenty-five.  When they get older, they begin to take on the role of master and train those little girls. Generally speaking, a girl starts learning this knowledge day and night from the age of five or six, and it takes about ten years to learn it.  Moreover, we have to select and train those little girls who are smart and beautiful.  It can be said that it is not easy to train an oiran.

    The most famous Yihong Courtyard and Yicui Hall in Huainan City are the best among them. Basically every three years, these two houses will produce an oiran.  These two families have almost taken over the top beauties of the Lotus Festival over the years.  In addition, there are a few famous ones, such as Qunfang Pavilion, which will produce a beauty every few years, and has also produced an oiran.

    Because these theaters, which have been passed down for decades or even hundreds of years, are located in the most prosperous and bustling big cities, they have not been greatly affected even in the years of famine and war.  Because Huainan City has always been prosperous, emperors of all dynasties had their palaces here, and the garrison was large in number and most of them were elite soldiers and generals, so the place was well protected.

    ??The deposed emperor before King An came to the throne was because he was too addicted to women and often?Taking guests.

    "There are only two guests?" the old servant who showed them around asked carefully.

    "Yes, it's just us two brothers. Normally, as long as you provide hot tea and prepare breakfast in the morning, if we eat here at night, we will remind you in advance. In addition, our horses must be taken good care of." Dalang replied.

    The old servant breathed a sigh of relief, these two guests met the master's requirements.  He knew that his master had no choice, so he came up with this way to make money.  But he rejected several groups of guests. There were too many people and he did not dare to receive them.  I dare not accept anyone who is too messy.  Don't dare to accept guests who ask for too much.  Dalang and Xinhu only had two horses, and they looked clean and fresh, and they didn't look like rich people with weird tempers, which was exactly what the master wanted.

    Although the yard is small, it is clean and tidy. It is connected to the back door of the whole house and far away from the front yard. It will not disturb the owner's house in the front yard at all. It is convenient to enter and exit, and you don't have to crowd with other people to live here.  Dalang and Xinhu were very satisfied.  The price was not too expensive. Dalang threw out a hundred taels of silver and bought the small courtyard.

    For one hundred taels of silver, the host promised to let them stay for half a month, including preparing them hot water and tea, taking care of their horses, and ordinary breakfast.  If you eat dinner, you will have to pay extra for food.  The host is also afraid that they will eat too well and cannot afford to entertain them.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
