The ancient Qinglou is completely different from what people imagine today, and there are not only beautiful and moving women in it, but also countless secrets hidden by no one. Well, a historic green house,Why do you need to hire bodyguards with strong martial arts?
This green building is called "Splendid Building".Opened in the middle of the Ming Dynasty 500 years ago, it has been passed down all the way to this day, and it has not changed through wind and rain。Large-scale, extensive and densely populated, it is divided into three floors: the first floor is a dance hall, the second floor is a private room, and the top floor is a women's residence. Despite the vicissitudes of life, the splendid building still maintains exquisite decoration and exudes an atmosphere of elegance and luxury.

Today, there are about 100 peerless women living in the Qinglou, they are either charming and moving, or gentle and lovely, with beautiful facial features, ** graceful, and are favored by dignitaries. The key to the Splendid Building's ability to stand, lies in the shrewdness and ability of the current bustard Xiaoyu. Xiaoyu is over forty years old and used to be the top brand of the Qinglou. Born in poverty, she once sold herself to make a living, and with her beauty and intelligence, she found a place in the Qinglou. Now he has bid farewell to the world of flowers and has become the new bustard.

So, why does this Qinglou with a long history need such a large number of bodyguards with high martial arts
Tang and Song dynasties: literati and sensual carnivals
Going back 500 years, it was the middle of the Ming Dynasty, which was an era when literati and elegant guests were intoxicated by the carnival of sounds. They advocate a free and casual lifestyle and chase the trend of Qinglou culture. Literary giants such as Li Bai and Su Dongpo openly admitted that they often went to Qinglou. These literati were obsessed with fine wine and beautiful women, but they were not morally condemned. This has brought a large number of high-spending customers to Qinglou, and business is booming.
At that time, there were many noble civil officials who visited the Fairview BuildingThey are in officialdom and earn a good income. Entering the Qinglou, they spent money like dirt and were generous. These literati often indulged in drinks and carnivals for days before leaving, not only spending a lot, but also valuing morality, and never leaving without paying the bills.
However, behind all this glamour, there is endless suffering. Most women are forced to enter this profession out of desperation, and they have no choice but to be at the mercy of the bustard. In the face of unreasonable demands from guests, they are powerless to resist. Xiaoyu is one of them, and she feels the pain of her colleagues, so she is determined to change the industry.
Qing Dynasty: Commoner prostitutes and the phenomenon of "overlord meals".
After 300 years of development, during the Qing Dynasty, the business of Jinxiulou became more prosperous, and the main source of customers changed to ordinary people. Most of them are not wealthy in their pockets, but they aspire to live a high-end life. As a result, the phenomenon of "overlord meals" began to spread, and guests sneaked away after eating and drinking, without paying the fee.
There is a hooligan named Wang Mazi who visits Jinxiu Building almost every day, and when he is drunk, he takes a lot of action against the girls. The bustard was angry and demanded that he pay for it. Unexpectedly, Wang Mazi actually took out a knife and wanted to **. Fortunately, several strong men stopped him in time and beat him half to death. This incident made the bustard deeply realize that it is crucial to hire bodyguards to deal with these scoundrels.
In addition, the competition between green buildings is also becoming increasingly fierce. Other old bustards often send people to smash the field and fight. Once, more than 20 thugs smashed the dance hall of Jinxiu Building with ** in their hands。The bustard suffered huge losses, which strengthened her determination to hire powerful bodyguards.
An accident: the importance of bodyguards is completely highlighted
One day, Jinxiu Lou welcomed a beautiful girl named Lotus, who was only 16 years old, and was bought by the old bustard from a dealer with a lot of money. Due to Lotus's arrogant personality and reluctance to accompany the guests, the bustard was furious and asked several bodyguards to punish her. However, Lotus took the opportunity to climb onto the roof and try to escape, but she fell from the third floor and was injured.
This accident made the bustard deeply realizedThe role of bodyguards is not only to suppress women, but more importantly to protect their safety。Subsequently, the bustard formulated a series of rules and regulations to ensure the personal safety of the woman. At the same time, she reflects on her own way of doing business and is determined to guide women with love and no longer use violent means.
Guarding the ** years: the mysterious mission of the martial arts bodyguards of the Splendid Building
The responsibilities of the bodyguards are by no means limited to the safety of the green building. Here, they also have a vital mission - to escort huge amounts of silver。As an ancient time-honored brand, Jinxiulou has a thriving business, and its monthly income is enough to fill several carts. Such a large amount of gold was in danger of being stolen at all times in ancient times.
Therefore, the old bustard will secretly send several strong bodyguards to deliver the gold and silver safely to the silver number. These bodyguards are all skilled, good at all kinds of weapons, and have the ability to fight gangsters。They keep a low profile, transceiving before going out, and often leaving quietly late at night to avoid attracting the attention of others. This group of bodyguards is well versed in ingenious tactics, and believes that even if they encounter hundreds of bandits, they can get away with their whole body.
It can be said that without these strong bodyguards, it would be difficult for Jinxiulou to maintain its daily operations. Thanks to their solid support, this 500-year-old store has been able to stand. himWe not only guard the safety of the Splendid Building, but also silently guard those unknown secrets.
