"Squeeze him dry, from his wallet to his pants, not a drop left... no, not a drop left!"
Upon hearing the news of the arrival of the first sucker, almost all the mothers in Jiyue Tower came out in full force, bringing with them more than thirty top courtesans who were dressed up in flamboyant clothes, wearing thin, off-shoulder and navel-revealing clothes, and enthusiastically entered the private room where Han Mo and the others were.
"Ah, Brother Han, can we handle calling so many girls at once?"
Looking at the bunch of women standing in front of him, some of them pure, some charming, some passionate, and some gentle, Guo Mingyuan was a little dazzled.
Frankly speaking, this was not his first time to experience this kind of place of entertainment. As a veteran, what kind of girls had he not seen?
However, he only regretted that he did not have enough financial resources. He could not be as wasteful as the number one playboy in Tianhaizhou who recruited more than thirty top courtesans at one time. At most, he could only play with ordinary courtesans.
The difference between this top courtesan and ordinary courtesans lies not in her appearance, but in another factor.
To describe it in one word:
burn!
If I were to describe it in two words:
Beaker!
If I use ten words to describe it:
Why are you wearing Pinru's clothes?
Therefore, this beaker was a little bit stimulating for Guo Mingyuan.
Looking at Han Mo again, he was very calm at this moment.
These courtesans were clearly coming for him, and they did their best to flatter him in an attempt to arouse the prince's sexual interest.
There were even many people who were staring at the prince's belt with envy... cough, the bulging storage bag full of spirit stones tied to it, and secretly screaming:
When will the prince favor me? I can’t wait any longer.
But Han Mo seemed uninterested and responded casually.
Sometimes he drinks with one courtesan, sometimes he plays finger-guessing games with another courtesan, and sometimes he tells a story to yet another courtesan.
It’s no secret that this Prince Han is really good at telling stories.
The stories of the love story between Fairy Zixia and Voldemort, Alibaba's battle with Madam Rong to save Princess Xiangxiang, etc., all the courtesans were fascinated by them...
After three rounds of drinks, Han Mo finally stood up.
"Yes, yes, I have already felt your hospitality. In return..."
Just when the courtesans thought that the prince had finally come to his senses... ahem, figured it out, and were about to start discussing some life topics with them, Han Mo suddenly stopped smiling and unceremoniously pushed the two courtesans around him away:
"Humph, is this how you test your cadres? This is immoral and outrageous, Han Cheng!"
"Your Majesty, this old slave is here."
"Let the Iron Wolf Guard in!"
"As ordered."
Iron Wolf Guard, isn’t this the personal guard of Marquis Yifeng’s Mansion?
The courtesans were stunned for a moment, but before they could figure out what was going on, a righteous voice suddenly resounded throughout the fireworks area:
"I am Han Mo, the captain of the Yifeng City Inspection Department. I am here today only to...
"Crack down on pornography!!!"
Chapter 21 Sir, Please Spare Me
2023-11-10
~
What, anti-pornography?
The most dissolute playboy in Tianhai Prefecture, the biggest prodigal son in the entire southern Xinjiang, comes to our Jiyue Tower to crack down on prostitution?
Are you sure this little bastard is not joking?
Doesn't he know the background of our Jiyue Tower? Standing behind us is one of the five major holy places that even the Great Zhou Dynasty has to give some face to.
Even if we put aside the background, you little bastard, don’t you know that my brothel is a legal property of Yifeng City?
The courtesans and mothers in Jiyue Tower were all speechless. Even Guo Mingyuan who was standing by was stunned. They wondered if there was something wrong with their ears, or if this evil young man was joking and teasing them?
However, Han Mo calmly brushed off the non-existent dust on his body and said seriously:
“In addition to the crackdown on pornography, this prince also received reports from enthusiastic citizens on Chaoyang Street in Yifeng City.
It is said that your Jiyue Tower is involved in human trafficking and smuggling of banned narcotics, which is a serious crime in our Great Zhou. So please cooperate with me and let me conduct a thorough search."
Human trafficking and smuggling of illegal drugs?
Hey, how did this guy know?
The mothers in Jiyue Tower turned pale instantly.
The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty explicitly opposed the slave trade and human trafficking, considering them to be degrading, but if there is demand, a market will be created.
It's like not allowing people to gather and hold parties, so can't I just label it as a brothel or a dance house?
Industries such as brothels, no matter how legal they are, will more or less involve some gray industries.
For example, although most of the courtesans in the building sold themselves voluntarily, there were still a few who were sold into the brothel through some shady means.
Having said that, to say this is human trafficking is a bit too much of a accusation.
As for the banned drug pills, they usually refer to a certain type of hallucinogenic pill that can bring people extreme mental pleasure. In modern terms, it is opium.
According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, anyone who sells this kind of poison pill can be sentenced to a maximum penalty of being struck by five thunders.
It is said that prostitution, gambling and drugs are inseparable. Although Jiyue Tower does not sell such banned drug pills openly, it does not secretly prohibit such alchemists from selling drug pills in the tower, and instead collects some kickbacks.
So even if there is no crime of selling, there is still the crime of condoning.
But in the final analysis, these are extremely secretive gray industries within Jiyue Tower. Who in this business doesn't have some gray industries?
If we catch them one by one, can we catch them all?
Besides, this is the southernmost part of the Xian Dynasty, the emperor is far away and the sky is high. Their Jiyue Tower has a backstage background, and generally no force would be so blind as to cause trouble for them because of such a small mistake.
Therefore, the mothers of Jiyue Building quickly started to think:
What on earth is this little bastard planning to do?
However, after thinking for a long time, they still couldn't figure out why a playboy who often visited brothels would come to the brothel to mess things up. Isn't this equivalent to smashing the food that feeds him?
However, there are also some beauties like Huilan who know a lot, have many unique skills, and have unique minds, and their thoughts are completely different.
Hmm... Could it be that this evil young man wants to play some role-playing game?
In the past, many customers liked this method very much. They would let the courtesans wear the clothes of fairies from the holy land, or the official uniforms of female detectives of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and have fun while acting.
There are even quite a few customers with unique hobbies who like to have the courtesans call them "Dad", let them play the role of daughters or sisters, and the more advanced ones even have their own plots.
So, maybe this evil young man also has this plan?
Maybe, the prince of Han did this just to make us beauties kneel in a row, crying and sticking out our buttocks, while shouting "Master, please spare me!"
Thinking of this, Huilan had an idea, and wanted to call her sisters to kneel in a row and organize everything in an orderly manner on the spot.
She even found a whip from somewhere and prepared to hand it to Prince Han so that he could punish them if they begged for mercy.
Wait, what if Prince Han doesn't like using whips and prefers using big bones?
That doesn't matter, the worst that can happen is a few slaps on the face from a big bone...
"This prince doesn't like it. All officials of the Great Zhou Xian Dynasty are strict with themselves and honest in their duties. As a captain of the Xian Dynasty, this prince is incompatible with drugs and gambling.
If you dare to try to bribe me with some vulgar things while I am working, you will be guilty of an even greater crime."
Hey, how does this guy know what I want to do?
Could it be that he has the ability to predict the future?
Huilan and others were suddenly shocked.
The other courtesans who didn't know much and didn't have much experience finally came up with an answer after hearing Han Mo's confident words:
Why does this guy keep emphasizing that he is a captain of the Great Zhou Dynasty?
Although he was indeed a captain, he only got this position with the blessing of his father. They even heard that this guy has not reported for duty yet.
But why today...
Oh, is this a conspiracy of the Great Zhou Dynasty against the five holy places?
I heard that the new emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was a very ambitious emperor. Soon after he ascended the throne, he vigorously implemented the new policy of reducing the power of the vassal states, eliminating dissidents and winning over the hearts of the people.
Now, has he finally been unable to resist and is extending his hand to the five holy places?
No, we must notify the Saint as soon as possible and ask her to send someone to solve this problem.
"Prince Han, we cannot make the decision on this matter yet. We hope..."
Thinking of this, the purple-clothed woman who was the leader of the group of women put on a stiff smile, trying to ease the tense atmosphere, but she was interrupted directly by Han Mo.
"Don't think about stalling for time or calling for reinforcements. The Iron Wolf Guards of my Yifeng Marquis's Mansion have surrounded the entire Jiyue Tower. If you make the slightest movement, I will order the Iron Wolf Guards to tie you all up and torture you severely."
Eh~, how does this kid know what I’m thinking?
Being able to predict the future and understand one's thoughts, such a strange situation scared even the experienced mothers.
Han Mo naturally did not have this kind of magical ability. He was just a veteran player and had some understanding of some of the plots and characters in the game.
"So, Prince Han, what exactly are you planning to do?"
In the end, the woman in purple chose to compromise.
"It's very simple. Since you can't make the decision, then take me to see the one who can make the decision, that is, your boss behind the scenes - Shang Xiufang."
Thus, with almost no effort, thanks to Han Mo's unethical method of overturning the chessboard, he was one step ahead of Yan Xiao and met this talented woman from the imperial capital.
"Ms. Xiufang, I have long heard of your great name."
……
At the same time, the lobby on the first floor of Jiyue Tower was crowded with people watching the fun.
