"Oh, sir, will it damage your image if you go to those places? I'm really worried about you." Little Willie still looked like he couldn't bear to drag people into trouble.

"Boy, stop pretending here. A man is not a romantic, a hero is not greedy. Haven't you heard of this classic saying?" Wu Feng said proudly.

"But sir, have you heard the saying that Wenrou Township is a Tomb of Heroes?" Little Willie asked cautiously.

"Nonsense, that's just the lament of a coward who fell under a woman's skirt and couldn't get up. Could it be that I would make a stupid mistake in this area?" Wu Feng dismissed it, "Do you still want to do it?!"

"Well, sir, since you ask me to tell you, I have to do it reluctantly." Little Willy secretly chuckled in his heart, but pretended to be reluctant on the surface, coughed twice and said: "This imperial capital Zhongzhou is ours. The center of the Tanghe Empire is also the central city of the Eastern Continent. Its prosperity is one of the best in the entire continent, and of course it is no exception in terms of entertainment."

"As for the most prosperous and prosperous entertainment areas in the Imperial Capital, most of them are gathered in the Eastern District of the Imperial Capital, which can be roughly divided into two central areas. One area is centered on Liujin Street and includes the newly emerged Shuiyue Street. This place is now divided into two parts. One is the time-honored brands headed by Pinhualou and Zuixinyuan. They have long-term and stable customer sources and often introduce new service methods. They have long been famous in the imperial capital. The owners of the fourth building of Pinhualou, The four small building owners and the three beauties of Zuixin Courtyard are all beautiful and fragrant, and have different styles; the other one is the emerging forces led by Tianya Haijiao Building and Lanfangju gathered on Shuiyue Street. They are surprisingly successful, combining singing and dancing. There are various business methods such as entertainment, performances, etc., and the women there even include women from various ethnic groups that were relatively rare in the past, such as Japan, Nanyang, Tengger Grassland, etc., attracting many customers who like the new and dislike the old, and the business is quite prosperous." Xiaowei Leigh knew this aspect well.

"Well, I've been to the Pinhua Building on Liujin Street once. It's really good. I didn't expect that there are so many houses that are comparable to it." Wu Feng thought of Di Leina, who was still far away in the northwest. The sight of the plump body moaning softly under him appeared in front of his eyes. He couldn't help but feel a little angry. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and then said, "What else?"

"There is another area on the Wangyou River located in the middle of the East District. There are hundreds of large boats of various sizes gathered there. The locals call them Huafangs. It is also an enviable place. Every Huafang has its own characteristics. Each has its own name, especially the most famous ones. Each has its own popular pillars and is full of beauty and art. The idle people can't afford it, but the wealthy people also have the opportunity. It is said that there are piles of posts all year round. , it all depends on the girls' pleasure, and most of the girls there are not prostitutes, but celebrities and elegant people can go there from time to time." Little Willy's tone was full of envy.

The Wangyou River is actually a branch of the Fan River that flows outside the north gate of the imperial capital. In the early days of the empire's capital establishment, in order to speed up the construction and development of the imperial capital, the empire used 800,000 slaves to cut a hole in the Shan River and excavate it manually. A small canal passed through the center of the imperial capital from west to east, and then merged into the Fan River twenty miles after exiting the East City. Later, this small canal was called the Wangyou River and became the main waterway connecting the city and other places. The eastern section of the city later gradually developed into an area where pornographic venues gathered.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? Isn't it possible to spend money to go there?" Wu Feng was very interested.

"There are so many places that you can't spend money to play, and not just on the Wangyou River? Isn't it the same with the Pinhua Building that you have been to, my lord?" Little Willy looked at Wu Feng as if he were looking at a country bumpkin.

"That's true. It seems they want some kind of VIP card, but I don't need it." Wu Feng explained awkwardly and quickly changed the subject, "Then are there any famous incense boats on the Wangyou River?"

Glancing at Wu Feng, Little Willie said sternly: "If you want to go there, you must take me with you, otherwise you will be taken as an easy target and beheaded without even knowing it. The most famous ones are the Blue Bird Boat and the Fire Rose Boat. Shuang Yue Boat and Black Mermaid Sister Boat are also quite famous, but the boarding fees for these boats are quite expensive, and you have to wait in line after submitting a ticket. They usually only open once a day, and sometimes they only open for two or three days. When doing business once, it’s difficult to serve.”

"Hey, this is the mentality of taking advantage of these customers. The harder it is to get it, the more precious it is. If anyone can easily get it, it is worthless." Wu Feng nodded with deep feeling.

"There is another place to go, have you heard of it?" Little Willy said with a mysterious smile on his face.

"Where are you going?" Wu Feng was still thinking carefully about Little Willy's introduction just now.

"It's at the Sihai Club on Jiaoyang Avenue in the South Eighth District." Little Willy's expression became more and more mysterious.

"Sihai Club? I think I've heard of it. It's probably a private club-like gathering place." Wu Feng couldn't figure out why Little Willie suddenly mentioned this place.

"Oh, sir, you don't know this. The Sihai Club was built on the private residence of Xishan, the second master of the Xi family, one of the five major families in the empire. It covers an area of several hundred acres, and the eastern half is built in the style of the Chinese mainland. , the western half is the Gothic architecture of the Western Continent, and the middle one is the Tang style architecture. It is the best place for the empire’s upper class to gather secretly. I heard these things from one person, and I don’t know the real situation. It’s clear, because even I haven’t been in there.” There was a longing look on Little Willy’s face.

"Since it's a private gathering place, why are you bringing it up? Is there any weird things running here?" Wu Feng responded quickly.

"Sir, you are really powerful. Even if you don't hit the mark, you are not far off. The Sihai Club itself is just a private gathering place, but most of the people who like to gather here are the highest-ranking people in the empire. It is said that if you don't have the title of earl or above, you will not be able to join the family. No one can get in. Even a lady must be brought in by someone with a count or above. If she is a single woman, she must have someone of a certain status as a guarantee before she can enter. Ordinary civilian women want to sneak in, hoping that some noble will see it. It happens here many times that you can climb a branch and become a phoenix. The most exciting thing is that many actresses and artists from foreign performing arts groups who come to the imperial capital often come here. I heard that there are also people who specialize in performing arts. To connect these women with those top figures." Little Willy's words were quite provocative.

"Is such a thing really possible? It's really unbelievable." Wu Feng gently pressed his lips to reveal a longing look.

"Sir, in fact, in addition to these aspects, there are many places worth mentioning in the imperial capital, such as the Lingyun Ancient Temple in the western suburbs, which has a quiet environment, many relics of the previous dynasties, and many calligraphy treasures left by literati; and the Lingyun Ancient Temple in the northern suburbs The Twin Towers, with their wonderful conception and simple shapes, are truly unique in imperial architectural art; there are also Canghai Study and Haitian Pavilion located on Fuxing Avenue in the South District. The collections of these two books are second to none in the entire empire, and there are even many imperial libraries. All rare collections of ancient books can be found here. If adults like reading, you can visit these two houses." Little Willy suggested kindly.

"Well, I know, but I'm more interested in what you said earlier." Wu Feng replied with a smile.

"Sir, we have agreed that I will not introduce you to those places." Little Willy quickly spoke up.

"Really? It depends on the situation you introduced. If it is not to my liking, then I think your sister and several other ladies will know that you strongly recommended me to go. I am a gentleman and have never been there before. Those places." Wu Feng smiled evilly.

"Sir, how could you do this?" Little Willy couldn't help but became anxious. That's okay. If they knew about it, wouldn't he really become Zhu Bajie and look in the mirror and no longer a human being.

"Hehe, it all depends on your performance." Wu Feng cocked his legs proudly, "But as long as you perform well, they shouldn't know."

"Then thank you, sir." Little Willy was mute at the moment and couldn't express the pain of eating Huanglian.

"Okay, it's time to talk about business. You said you have many friends who are familiar with the situation in the Imperial Capital?" Wu Feng put away his smile and said solemnly.

"Yes, sir, they all live near my original home, and some live in the North District. Like me, they all make a living by guiding people or running errands for others, and their families are also very poor." Little Willie also He consciously stood up straight.

"Well, you can contact them in the next two days. Mr. Song will explain the specific situation to you in a while. In a word, from now on, you will be the person in my Northwest County Military and Government Jiedushi Mansion and the North Luzon Region Governor's Mansion. "Yeah, I hope you won't live up to my expectations of you!" Wu Feng stood up and patted Little Willy heavily on the shoulder, with an encouraging look on his face.

Little Willy felt his blood surge up, and his nose couldn't help but feel sore. He saluted solemnly and said, "Sir, please don't worry, Little Willy will never let you down!"

"Okay, let's go." Wu Feng nodded with satisfaction, indicating that he could leave. Little Willie bit his lips and nodded, leaving with understanding.

After Little Willy left, Wu Feng fell into deep thought again. Through his own investigation, he found that Little Willy's observation and problem-solving abilities should be capable of the job he planned to assign him, but his age was indeed a bit too high. Young, but then again, if he were older, I'm afraid he wouldn't be so inconspicuous in some situations. If there is an advantage, there will be a disadvantage. This old saying is true at all.

It's time to write a letter to Xiao Tang and the others. The development funds for Northern Luzon have not been revealed yet, but Situ Mingyue has become suspicious of herself again. It seems that her work report trip is really not going well. Apart from Situ Biao, it's okay. He was so loyal that he let himself know in advance. If he hadn't been kept in the dark by His Majesty's appearance, he would have been kept in the dark.

It seems that I still despise these ministers in the court too much. I didn't expect that Qiu Ping could not see anything, but he dared to stab himself down at the critical moment. I wonder how many copies of His Majesty the Emperor's Imperial Case that Situ Biao mentioned Whose memorial is this that attacks him? Ning Yuanwang and Xidun are definitely there, and the Minister of Ceremony Liu Wenqing is probably there, but I am not sure about the others. But since He Zhiqiu, who even I did not expect, can make an impassioned speech to attack me in front of His Majesty the Emperor, Then who else wouldn’t dare? There seem to be quite a few enemies hiding in the dark.

"Sir, please have dinner." Charlotte's soft voice sounded outside the door.

"I know, where are Miss Qin and Miss Gu?" Wu Feng shook his head, as if he wanted to throw away all his worries.

"The two of them have already passed. It's just you." The voice is still so gentle and soft, as if it is a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world.

"Okay, I'll be over right away, and you and Little Willie can come too." Wu Feng's words were full of domineering power and there was no doubt about it.

The man at the door hesitated for a moment before replying: "Okay then."
