Chapter 301 Future Direction

After the proprietress left, Yu Shuangxue said with great interest, "I didn't expect Master Xia to be quite familiar with the brothel business. He even knows such trivial matters."

"I just received some advice from others." Xia Fan waved his hand indifferently.

"What you mean by being pointed out...isn't Mr. Xia promoting this matter out of his original intention?"

"No, I mean something similar happened in Jinxia City. After talking to a girl named Liu Ruyan, I got a basic understanding of the situation in the brothel."

Yu Shuangxue was slightly surprised and said, "Is this Miss Liu also -"

"Exactly." Xia Fan nodded, "But she is now a teacher in the school."

Although she could feel that the person in front of her was different from ordinary people, as a fourth-grade high-ranking official, she would actually regard a conversation with a brothel woman as "guidance", which was completely beyond her expectation.

The other party's calm and easy-going expression didn't seem to be fake, as if he didn't regard what he learned from the brothel girl as something unspeakable.

No wonder she understood it to have a completely different meaning.

Thinking of this, Yu Shuangxue was a little embarrassed and said, "Sorry, I misunderstood you."

"So Jinxia City is really short of brothels?" Sister Yu is better...she actually knows a lot, and she will have no problem teaching the little girl."

"grown ups……"

Xia Fan made a no-nonsense gesture, "The more you know, the less you should waste your talent in a brothel. As for you... aren't you a little girl? So you should also go to the school to attend classes with your peers."

"But I don't have that much savings..." Xintao pointed her finger and said, "If you attend the class, you should have to pay, right?"

Xia Fan couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded.

The girl in front of her obviously retains her innocence in some areas, but her understanding of some things is comparable to that of an adult, such as when it comes to money and money.

"Don't worry, the Secretariat will help you pay the fee."

"What is the Secretariat?"

Xia Fan smiled and said, "When you get to Jinxia, ​​you will naturally understand."

After a while, a servant came to the center of the wing carrying a bag and two documents.

The bag contained heavy amounts of silver.

"Miss Yu, all your savings are here. Wushuang Pavilion has not stolen a single coin. I hope you don't mind the misunderstanding in the past."

"These two documents are the deeds of sale for the two of you, and now they belong to Mr. Xia. Sister Hong also said that she wishes you both a happy life in Jinxia City."

This man was quite efficient in his work. Xia Fan nodded, picked up the document and checked it before passing it to Yu Shuangxue and Xintao, "In Jinxia City, this kind of thing is meaningless. You can keep it for yourself, Or burn it on fire, whatever you want to do with it."

"But we haven't arrived at Jinxia yet." Yu Shuangxue took the deed generously, and also helped Xantao, who was at a loss, to take it with him, "Aren't you afraid that we will leave halfway?"

"Can we still call freedom of movement if we restrict freedom of movement with a contract of betrayal?" Xia Fan spread his hands, "Even if you go to Jinxia, ​​you can leave at any time."

"..." Yu Shuangxue was silent for a while, "I'm a little curious now, what kind of city is there."

"It won't let you down."

"Sir...can I light a fire?"

"Of course." Xia Fan confirmed.

Yu Shuangxue stood up and left the room. When she came back, she had a small copper basin in her hand - this kind of basin is usually used to hold charcoal fire, which can be used to warm wine or heat dishes. She had undoubtedly made a decision by bringing something like this into the room.

Then she rolled the document into a strip and slowly put it into the basin. One end of the paper roll quickly turned yellow and brown, and then burned silently. She pushed the document forward until it was completely submerged in the fire.

She had imagined this scene many times.

In the image in her mind, she burned the contract, tore it into pieces, threw it into the ditch, or buried it deep in the ground, but no matter which idea, it came to an abrupt end at this point. She couldn't imagine what would happen next or where she would go from there.

It seemed that after the deed was destroyed, only darkness remained in the world.

But now, Yu Shuangxue has a clearly identifiable goal.

Although she had never been to Jinxia City, a road quietly appeared in the dark scene.

Then she helped Xantao accomplish the same thing.

"So no one can control us from now on?" she said energetically.

"what you up to?"

"I want to finish writing all those stories, and then print them into a book so that everyone can -" Xin Tao was just halfway through her words when Yu Shuangxue quickly covered her mouth.

"Story? What kind of story?" Xia Fan asked curiously.

"No...it's nothing. She is young and is just talking nonsense." Yu Shuangxue said quickly, "I wonder how you will arrange the next trip? Do we need to go with you?"

"This place is definitely not suitable for you to stay temporarily. I will rent a house in Wanjinglou for you to rest first, and a carriage will take you out of Gyeonggi tomorrow. As for me..." Xia Fan smiled, "I guess I will still have to stay here. Stay in Shangyuan City for a few more days."

…

"Is this method really feasible?" Fang Xiandao asked in the carriage on the way back to Wanjing Tower, "You stayed in Wushuang Pavilion all night, but in the end only two people were willing to go to Jinxia, ​​and the rest are probably even less likely to do so. Dare to take risks.”

As a companion, he had been staying in the inner room of the wing, so he was naturally aware of what was happening outside.

"That's it for Wushuang Pavilion. Let's try another place next." Xia Fan said easily, "This matter can't be done quickly. If you can't convince the other party with the truth, I would rather let it go."

"You're not going to visit all the brothels in Shangyuan City, are you?" Fang Xiandao looked surprised.

"Why not? This place is not like Jinxia. There are only one or two Xiangfang lofts with names. If each family can redeem two or three people, it is not a small amount." Xia Fan paused for a moment, " How much money do we have left?”

"Less than a hundred taels." Because the Fang family's money was also included, Fang Xiandao answered very quickly.

"This is the key. We have limited funds at our disposal, so it is best to take away the brothels with the strongest subjective will in the first batch. The brothel will also be more receptive to this. If we really take away dozens of people at a time , Even with the reputation of the Privy Council, I am afraid that the other party will not let go easily." Xia Fan concluded, "This is not Jinxia City after all."

"What you said makes sense," Fang Xiandao couldn't help but sigh, "So in the end, it would be good to have about ten people go to Jinxia?"

"Of course not." Xia Fan smiled confidently, "These people are all buried seeds. As long as the communication between the two places continues, the seeds will emerge sooner or later. By then, people in Gyeonggi will also see that going to Jinxia is definitely not a good idea." An adventure, but a journey to a city of dawn that begins a new era.”
