Chapter 222 Controlling Public Opinion
Throwing Xiyu to the first member of the women's guards she met at the door, Ye Anlan sent a few more people out to inquire about Xiyu.
Although Xiyu is just a little white rabbit in her opinion, for the sake of prudence, she still can't leave any chance for others to take advantage of the loopholes.
It wasn't until the intelligence personnel in charge of inquiring about the news came back and reported that Xiyu had indeed not lied to her, that Ye Anlan had someone bring Xiyu back to her.
Xiyu has been staying with the members of the female guards who are in charge of guarding her for the past few days. The other party did not forget to take Xiyu with her when she was practicing martial arts. A member of the Women's Guard at ease.
There is no constant beating and persecution by the bustard, no envy and jealousy from other flower girls, and no ruthless man who makes her sad ask her for money. In the middle of the day, there was an illusion of quiet time in a trance.
Seeing Ye Anlan again, Xiyu immediately knelt down towards Ye Anlan.
She knew that the bustard and her ex-lover would definitely not let her go, and that she could live in such a stable life must be because Ye Anlan protected her.
Xiyu's temperament seems weak but in fact she is strong, otherwise she would have preferred to die rather than compromise when desperate. Now that Ye Anlan has given her a chance to regain her life, she is naturally extremely grateful to Ye Anlan.
"Get up." Ye Anlan was not used to being kowtowed to her by others, she raised her hand to signal Xiyu to get up, and at the same time gave a look to the member of the female guard who was in charge of supervising Xiyu.
The other party understood, took a step forward, and reached out to pull Xiyu up.
Xiyu had no power to resist, and could only obediently stand up with the strength of the opponent.
Seeing her standing still, Ye Anlan put down the pen in her hand and asked Xiyu, "What are your plans for your future?"
Xiyu wanted to kneel down again when she heard that, but the member of the female guard lifted her arm, making it impossible for her to kneel down.
Xiyu had no choice but to stand upright again, "Please also ask Miss Ye to save me, I don't want to go back to Hualou again."
Ye Anlan nodded, "Then I will give you two ways out, one is to join my women's guard team, practice martial arts and kill enemies with them, and the other is to use the skills you already have, either performing or teaching , Slowly make money to redeem yourself. Of course, no matter which path you choose, I will never let people belittle you or bully you because of your status."
The old bustard is certainly not a positive role, but in ancient times, the business of the Qinlou Chuguan was not illegal. Even if Ye Anlan was the leader of a rebel army, or it should be said that because she was the leader of a rebel army, she couldn't directly buy from the old bustard. Cut off people.
Not giving money means that she has benefited from the other party, and then the other party will definitely use her name to make profits for herself in the future, which is not what Ye Anlan wants to see.
Don't say that she is a little girl, and she can't get involved in a place like Hualou. Even if the other party runs a restaurant and teahouse in a serious manner, she, Ye Anlan, can't do it because she can get a favor fee of three melons and two dates from the other party. Put yourself on the other side's platform.
Ye Anlan, who is poor but very principled, had already sent someone to discuss with the procuress about redeeming Xiyu's life as early as the day she brought Xiyu back.
The old bustard wanted to give it away for free, but was ruthlessly rejected by the other party, but she didn't dare to ask Ye Anlan, a subordinate of the new owner of Yanzhou, how much money she wanted. She originally thought it would be a bad business that would make her lose money to her grandma's family, but Unexpectedly, the people sent by Ye Anlan actually gave her three thousand taels of silver as Xiyu's ransom according to the current general price of redeeming people in Qinlou Chuguan.
This sum of money cannot be considered too much, after all, if she can catch a bully to redeem Xiyu's life, then it is not impossible for her to earn 10,000 or even 20,000 taels.
But this amount of money is definitely not small. The average price of the popular flower girls who were redeemed last year and this year was only 16,700 taels of silver.
Xiyu is a noble woman, so the price is of course more expensive than other flower girls. The old man guessed that the man who came to buy someone should have considered this, so he gave her nearly double the three thousand taels of silver. .
The bustard is very regretful, one is that he can't use the money tree he carefully cultivated to climb up to Ye Anlan or Ye Anlan's confidants, and the other is that Xiyu can't help her make a lot of money.
But she didn't dare to express her true emotions, worrying that she and her Hualou would be begging for food under Ye Anlan's hands for a long time in the future. Yi'er sent away Boss Peng who was sent by Ye Anlan to buy someone.
After Boss Peng took back Xiyu's body deed, Ye Anlan kept keeping the paper that determined Xiyu's fate with Wen Liuniang.
Now that Xiyu has been investigated from beginning to end, Ye Anlan decided to give her a chance to get back her deed.
And Xiyu is indeed as Ye Anlan expected, she is extremely eager to get her body contract back and become a free person again.
She chose the second path given by Ye Anlan, using what she had learned in the past to earn money to redeem herself.
Ye Anlan agreed, "Your ransom money is three thousand taels. On the premise of ensuring your health and safety, I will try my best to arrange work for you."
Xiyu made up her mind, "Thank you for taking care of me, Miss."
To be honest, she was actually very afraid that Ye Anlan would let her go because she was of no use. Now that Ye Anlan was willing to continue to **** her, her hanging heart suddenly fell back into her stomach.
How did she know that the decision she made now actually fit Ye Anlan's wishes.
Ye Anlan now has a big family and a great career, and seems to have a bright future, but in fact, more and more literati have provoked her to criticize her status as a woman.
There are no less than a hundred articles and poems criticizing her just because the subordinates reported it by the way. These are only written by the literati in the prefectures and counties under her rule. Ye Anlan can't even count those that are not under her jurisdiction.
She is not someone who would sit still and wait for death. Taking advantage of the end of the war, Ye Anlan decided to use her innate advantages in two lifetimes to strike hard, and firmly control the direction of public opinion in her own hands.
To this end, she plans to set up a special group of words, storytelling, opera, singing and dancing, and nursery rhymes, and then rely on the power of entertainment to quickly sweep and occupy the public opinion market before others react.
She played a big game of chess in her heart. People who didn't know saw that she was listening to music, listening to books, watching operas, enjoying singing and dancing every day, or squatting with the little beggars in the city and chatting nonsense. , but they all thought that she was planning to indulge in pleasure and not think about making progress.
