Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

The courtesans at Wutao Pavilion have their reasons, and the young lady’s thoughts followed Yuchi’s fingers. When Yuchi’s fingers stopped, her brows instantly became much more cautious, secretly praying, ”Brother, please don’t choose her. She just arrived, and her entire personality is extremely explosive. If you choose her, a single disagreement might lead to you getting thrashed by her. Someone was beaten up and had to be sent to the medical clinic because of her!”

There is an assessment for courtesans, and each establishment has different requirements. However, the basic requirement is to know about various industries. For example, if someone is into animal husbandry, then at least one should be able to engage in a conversation. Similarly, if someone is in the salt trade, it requires having the ability to compare prices. For instance, Yuchi is in the garment business, so courtesans must know the process of making clothes. These are rigid requirements, which are vastly different from those of brothel girls.

Don’t look down on courtesans, as they are elite individuals with considerable knowledge. Some take up this business due to family issues or a lack of security. Essentially, they are people with wide perspectives, and not every woman can become a courtesan.

Of course, not every man can acquire a title akin to courtesan either. Such a title is quite honorable, with many considering it a matter of pride to marry a courtesan. After all, marrying a courtesan is genuinely helpful; she has great insights into business and understands men’s minds, making her an ideal spouse. However, many wish to redeem a courtesan, driving market prices so high that they are often unattainable.

The girl Yuchi picked is also a courtesan, so her knowledge is undoubtedly not questionable. The essential requirement for a courtesan is knowledge alone, and there are no demands on personality. Once the rigid requirements are met, no matter how poor the personality is, they can enter a place like Wutao Pavilion.

Judging by the frightened look of the young lady, the girl Yuchi chose likely has quite a fiery temper...

”Let it be her!”

Yuchi, without knowing the specifics, though it was random, actually wanted the young lady to recommend someone to him. Therefore, he was sensing the young lady’s breathing. Previously, her breath was calm when he chose randomly, but when his finger landed on this bamboo card, her breathing halted, and her whole body trembled. Hence his choice must be correct!

The young lady released the fingers covering Yuchi’s eyes while sobbing, ”Good brother, are you really choosing her?”

Well, do you seem a bit reluctant? Yuchi was surprised, ”Why? Is she not good?”

Looking down at the card’s content, the stage name is ”Yi Jun.”

The name Yi Jun sounds quite nice, with a touch of classical elegance. So, even if one doesn’t know her real name, there’s nothing repulsive about the name Yi Jun.

”She’s quite good, it’s just her personality might be a bit straightforward. It depends on whether you, good brother, like a straightforward personality,” the young lady said timidly.

In fact, she was afraid Yuchi might get badly beaten.

”Straightforward personality...”

A straightforward personality is good, as he came here to ask about the Great Tang Prison. With a straightforward personality, his conversation with her would have no roundabout way, perfect for gaining information. So, ignoring the young lady’s gentle dissuasion, Yuchi smiled and said, ”Let it be her then.”

After that, he directly flipped Yi Jun’s bamboo card, revealing the price on the back: ten taels of silver per hour.

”Equivalent to ten thousand yuan for two hours, five thousand yuan per hour, hmm... that can’t be helped, so indeed five thousand per hour is somewhat expensive, but if it can lead to information regarding the Great Tang Prison, then I would be compelled to pay not just five thousand, but fifty thousand.”

”After all, neither the Ascension Gate nor the merchants have anyone who fully understands the Great Tang Prison, not even Song the Belle can completely comprehend it. So, I should find Yi Jun to see what’s going on. Even if I obtain a tiny bit of a clue, that would be sufficient.”

Seeing that Yuchi had made up his mind, the young lady couldn’t do anything more. After all, the client’s wish is the ultimate requirement, how could she stop her client now? If the client complains, she’d be in big trouble. Seeing Yuchi had already flipped the card, she took Yuchi upstairs:

”Dear brother, follow me; I’ll take you there, and there are things I need to tell you in advance. The courtesans at Wutao Pavilion are protected, so unless courtesans approach actively, you cannot touch them.”

”Moreover, no matter what happens, you mustn’t harm the courtesans, nor should you engage in fighting; otherwise, Wutao Pavilion will hold you accountable, leading to very unpleasant outcomes. This is certainly not a result that we wish to see.”
