Then, Yi Manman suddenly asked: "I am a famous prostitute, but you are painting a chivalrous woman."
Lan Ling said: "What I am painting is your inner self."
Yi Manman's heart trembled. She was once the descendant of a high level warrior. She had an outstanding talent for dragon blood. When she was eight years old, she had already completed her martial arts initiation. When she was ten years old, she was already famous in the entire county. If nothing unexpected happened, her family would have a dragon warrior in thirty years. Moreover, it would be a female dragon warrior.
However, when she was ten years old, the mutiny king began to settle accounts with those who stood on the wrong side in the fight for the crown prince.
Yi Manman's father's monarch was settled, and Yi Manman's family was implicated. Her father was executed. Although she had an outstanding talent for martial arts, no one dared to take her in. When she was only ten years old, she was sold to a brothel and raised to be a money tree.
More than ten years later, she became one of the top brothels in Royal City. As for martial arts and swordsmanship, she had long forgotten them. But in her heart, there was always the dream of being a dragon warrior.
At night, she didn't know how many times she would wake up from her sweet dreams. Then, she would bury herself in the pillow and cry bitterly about the unfairness of fate.
Moreover, she didn't dare to forget her dream of being a dragon warrior. She was afraid that once she forgot this dream, she would really sink into this brothel and be unable to extricate herself. Although her body was depraved, she hoped that her soul was noble.
However, too much time had passed. She had been in despair for too long. She almost forgot her dream. She couldn't even imagine herself holding a sword and practicing swordsmanship.
At this moment, Lan Ling's painting directly pierced the most beautiful dream in her heart.
In an instant, the image of herself in her dream suddenly became clear.
After a long while, Yi Manman said: "You have pierced the most beautiful and soft part of my heart."
Then, Yi Manman rolled her eyes at him and said: "You are a playboy who deceives women. I have fallen for your trick. I will give you five hundred gold coins and lend you three hundred gold coins. Remember, you have to pay me back!"
After saying that, she stood up and went to get the money.
Lan Ling pulled her back, and she took the opportunity to sit in Lan Ling's arms, causing his heart to skip a beat. He looked like a Casanova on the outside, but he was a virgin on the inside.
"I said I don't want your money. I want to earn money by selling paintings," said Lan Ling.
"Alright, take it as me begging you to accept my money." Yi Manman said, "Just take it as the overnight fee for sleeping with me previously."
After saying that, she pouted her fragrant lips and kissed Lan Ling's lips. He simply did not believe that a painting could be sold for dozens of gold coins.
Lan Ling asked, "Listen to my plan first. In your Ascension Pavilion, do you have any girls who are extremely beautiful but not popular?"
"Yes, there are plenty of them." Yi Manman said, "What do we need to be famous in this industry? It was all because of people pushing and supporting him. In terms of appearance, there are plenty of beauties. "
It was the same in this world. Was Guo Meimei beautiful? There were plenty of girls prettier than her in the street salons, but those beauties were selling for a few hundred yuan a night, while Guo Meimei was selling for tens of thousands of yuan a night. The key was the hype and popularity.
"Alright, then go and find such a girl. She is beautiful and unique, but not popular." Lan Ling said.
Yi Manman looked at Lan Ling suspiciously, then nodded and shouted towards the outside, "Go and get Ye Xiaoxian."
About a moment later, the girl called Ye Xiaoxian came in. After coming in, she first tried to please Yi Manman, then kept flirting and winking at Lan Ling.
Lan Ling could see that she was indeed very beautiful and unique. Her temperament was a bit similar to the female celebrity called Qiu Shuzhen on Earth, a girl who looked like a cat.
However, her stage name and dressing were completely different from her personality. Her current price was only five silver coins.
Lan Ling pointed at her and said, "It's you. Next, you will be my agent. Use fifty gold coins to buy one of my paintings, Man Man will pay for it."
Ye Xiaoxian was confused, but she nodded and said, "Yes, young master Søren."
Then, Lan Ling said to Yi Manman, "Man Man, please send invitations to all the girls in the brothel and invite them to Ascension Pavilion. The prettiest ones, the ones who used to be popular, invite them all. The girls who are popular now, don't invite them."
Yi Manman said, "There are at least a few hundred of them."
There were at least tens of thousands of girls in this industry in King City, and there were more than a hundred who stood at the top.
Yi Manman was puzzled, but still nodded and agreed.
… …
It was almost midnight, other than the brothel patrons, there were no other customers in the entire Ascension Pavilion. Usually, at this time, it would be almost closed.
But at this time, the Ascension Pavilion was brightly lit, full of voices, and the sound of women's voices.
Yi Manman originally only wanted to invite the girls who used to be popular in King City, especially the girls who were very beautiful, but not popular.
But the competitive atmosphere in this industry was very heavy, the girls from the same courtyard, seeing that other girls were invited, but they were not invited, they were very indignant, so they also came.
Therefore, the entire Ascension Pavilion had no less than a few hundred girls from the brothel, all the beautiful girls in King City were all here.
Where there were many women, there would be a lot of people. One woman was like five hundred ducks, then there were hundreds of women present, the situation was completely imaginable.
"Young master Søren and Yi Manman, why did you call us here, why haven't you shown yourself?"
"Exactly, if not for young master Søren's face, I wouldn't have come."
"Yes, yes, yes, what right does Yi Manman have to call all of us here, we are all popular, she is not much more popular than us."
Ye Manman only sent invitations to the red girls, but didn't say anything, just that there was an extra name at the end of the invitation, that was Søren.
He was indeed the ancestor of the brothel, a superstar in the world of brothels, his face was boundless. With just his invitation, everyone came, even those who weren't invited came.
Under the gaze of tens of thousands of people, Lan Ling and Ye Manman walked out, appearing at the staircase of the second floor.
Immediately, hundreds of pairs of beautiful eyes looked at Søren, all of them acting coquettishly.
"Young master Søren, I missed you so much."
"Young master Søren, you are so cruel, you came back to King City for a few months, but you didn't come to see us."
"At least you have a conscience, calling everyone over for a drink."
The hall of the Ascension Pavilion was packed to the brim with a few hundred girls. It was Lan Ling's first time seeing so many beautiful girls, he was completely dazzled.
According to Yi Manman, a quarter of the girls below had been slept with by Søren. Immediately, Lan Ling shivered. If he let this bastard Søren live, he would definitely kill a thousand people, he would challenge the record of all the playboys on Earth.
"Alright, the people below won't wait any longer, close the door," Yi Manman said.
Thereupon, a few employees stepped forward and closed the door.
Yi Manman looked at the people below and said, "Everyone must be very curious, why did Young Master Søren and I invite everyone here?"
As soon as this was said, many of the girls were instantly curious. Even though many of them were only here to watch, they seemed to understand what was going on.
"Today, we are not treating anyone to a meal, and secondly, we are not treating anyone to a drink, just to let everyone see a painting," Yi Manman said.
"Tch …" many of the girls immediately expressed their disappointment. What's so good about a painting, they've seen too many of them.
Yi Manman said, "This painting was made by Young Master Søren, it is not a painting at all, it is a masterpiece of the heavens, it can completely steal anyone's heart and soul."
As soon as this was said, everyone was in disbelief. Even though they loved Søren, many of them knew that Søren's painting skills were not bad, but not enough to steal anyone's heart and soul.
"Xiao Man, even though we all love Young Master Søren, when it comes to painting skills, Mr. Lang is the best," one of the girls said, "even the royal portrait was made by him."
"I know you don't believe me," Yi Manman said. "But after seeing it, if you don't scream out loud, I will leave the brothel world and give up my position as the top courtesan. This is not a painting at all, but an epoch-making art treasure. It is a revolution in the art of painting. With this painting, all the portraits in the future can all be burned. "
As soon as this was said, all the girls were filled with curiosity.
Yi Manman opened the scroll and said, "Everyone, take a good look."
All the girls widened their eyes and stared at the painting in Yi Manman's hand.
Yi Manman did not open the scroll inch by inch, instead, he opened the entire scroll without warning.
"Swoosh …"
In an instant, a two-foot tall painting was displayed in front of everyone's eyes.
At that moment, all the girls' eyes brightened. Then, their little mouths opened wide, unable to close.
This portrait was simply way too breathtaking! It was practically the exact same as the real person! In fact, it was even prettier!
How is this possible?
There's actually such a technique in this world, one that can paint a painting exactly like the real person, every strand of hair, the light in the eyes, the gloss in the lips, everything is perfectly displayed.
How, how did he do it?
I've never seen or heard of anything like this before.
It's a godly technique, a revolution in painting.
Yi Manman was right, once this painting is out, all the other artists can get lost, and all other portraits can be burned.
First, there was complete silence, then the girls' exclamations could be heard.
They looked at Lan Ling with disbelief. Was this really painted by Young Master Søren? Although he knew that his painting skills were very high, it was not to such a superb and uncanny level of craftsmanship.
Yi Manman asked, "Sisters, what do we women fear the most?"
"Losing our youth, of course."
"Passing away our youth."
"Aging and losing our beauty."
The girls below shouted.
That's right, for women in this line of work, what they fear the most is not death, but losing their beauty and being ignored.
Yi Manman said, "That's right, to sum it up, we'd rather die than be beautiful!"
These words directly hit the hearts of all the girls. That's right, we'd rather die than be beautiful.
Yi Manman said, "However, we will grow old and die in the end. But this painting can let your beauty exist forever in this world. When you grow old, you can reminisce in front of the painting. When you die, your descendants will be able to admire your beautiful appearance. "
These words made the hearts of all the women feel sorrowful. Towards a painting that looked like a real person, they were instantly filled with longing.
When they grow old, even when they die, their looks can be preserved forever in this way.
Yi Manman pointed at the painting and said, "This painting is a revolution in painting, it's unprecedented, it's called Soul Reflection."
This name, it's really cool, it's really appropriate.
Many of the girls agreed with this name, it's too realistic, as if the person was imprinted on it.
Yi Manman said, "For a painting like this, how much are you willing to pay for it?"
"One gold coin!"
"Two gold coins!"
"Three gold coins."
The highest bid from the girls was three gold coins. They were very enthusiastic, almost everyone wanted one, but most of them were only willing to pay one or two gold coins, which was already a very high price.
Yi Manman looked at Lan Ling, as if to say, "See, I wasn't wrong."
This kind of photo-realistic character sketch, although the impact was very strong, but just selling a painting, two gold coins for a painting was the most.
Therefore, just by selling paintings, it was impossible to earn three thousand nine hundred gold coins in two days.
… …
Lan Ling took a deep breath, took a step forward. Immediately, all the girls' gazes were focused on him.
He took a deep breath, whether or not he could earn three thousand nine hundred gold coins, it would depend on his performance.
"Ladies, among you, there are those who are popular, and those who are not. Red girls have to pay two gold coins to accompany a customer, and still arrogantly wait for a man to kneel and lick their boots. And those who are not popular, only charge a few silver coins, and desperately try to please those disgusting men. " At this time, Lan Ling was in the spirit of Amway, loudly asked, "Excuse me, girls who are not popular, is it because your looks are not as good as others?"
"No." Many pretty but not popular girls below shouted loudly.
In this industry, to be able to rank in the top few hundred, which one of them was not a great beauty in a thousand?
"Then why are you not popular?" Lan Ling shouted.
The girls below shouted one after another.
"No one pushed us!"
"No one flattered us!"
"No one hyped us!"
Lan Ling said loudly, "That's right, because no one pushed you, no one hyped you up. In this industry, what is the most important thing? It's popularity, only with popularity can one's net worth. In the world of brothels, the most important thing is eyeball economy. "
Lan Ling looked at the girls and said, "And who am I, Søren? I am the ancestor of brothels, the leader of brothels. I understand the psychology of these men the best, and I know best how to make a girl popular. Next, I will start the biggest courtesan event in the history of Royal City, Royal City's Nineteen Beauties! "
Royal City's Nineteen Beauties?
Lan Ling said, "I will choose nineteen girls from among you, and I will use new methods, styles that you have never seen before, clothes that you have never seen before, to package each one of you in a way that you have never seen before. I guarantee that it will have an unprecedented impact on the men of Royal City."
"No matter what your previous value was, I can guarantee that as long as you enter my Nineteen Beauties, no matter how low your previous value was, I can guarantee that after my packaging and hype, your value will at least increase by more than ten times."
