Chapter 124: What Does it Have to do With the Population?
Lorne directly chose the brothel that he came to with Weiss the last time. This way, he would be considered familiar with the place.
Sure enough, as soon as he led the three envoys of Fusang to the front door of the brothel, the eyes of the Madam who served him the last time immediately lit up.
Then, she came up to greet him with a smile.
“Young master, if I remember correctly, you are a regular guest here.”
Lorne smiled and nodded, then pointed to the three envoys behind him.
“These three are all guests that I brought along, but unlike my brother last time, the three of them are a little more experienced.
“Take care of them, and remember to serve them well!”
The Madam immediately clapped her hands and smiled warmly.
“Young master, don’t worry. You don’t have to worry about any of this. We’ll arrange everything for you as soon as possible!”
As she spoke, the Madam gave a few instructions to the people behind her. Then, the group brought Lorne and the others to the private room upstairs.
The business of this brothel was indeed better at night, and the atmosphere was livelier.
At least, the number of customers now was several times more than the last time Lorne came.
Many of them were well-dressed and beautiful. They looked like people with money or power.
In the hall on the first floor, a song and dance troupe composed of 16 dancers completely lit up the atmosphere of the brothel.
There were also quite a number of people with average wealth who sat in the hall to watch the dances while enjoying some drinks and snacks.
As soon as the three envoys of Fusang entered the brothel, they were immediately attracted by the bustling scene and could not walk any further. Their eyes were almost fixated on the dancing girls.
Although Fusang also had places like brothels, it was not as sophisticated as in Lolan.
In terms of architectural style, the exquisiteness of the decoration, the quality of the women, and the contrast of the atmosphere, the two places were far from being comparable.
Moreover, the men’s and women’s laughter would travel across the place, which made the three of them feel like they were immersed in a dream.
Lorne looked at the three of them with a dazed look on their faces and could not help start calculating his next step.
With just these three simple-minded people, looking at their posture, they were probably already firmly under Lorne’s control.
Next, he just needed for them to catch the bait he cast out and reel these people in. That would be the time for the real harvest.
Therefore, Lorne patted Inagumi’s shoulder and pointed at the door with a smile. “Friends, you don’t have to stand there in a daze. You can watch it even if you sit inside.”
The three Fusang envoys felt a little embarrassed by their behavior, so they scratched their heads and quickly followed them into the private room.
After they sat down, they conversed for a while before the girls and dishes were served.
Seeing that there was no one else around, Inagumi pointed to the hall on the first floor.
“Sir Lorne, could it be that the reason why the empire’s population has been so prosperous since ancient times is because of the brothels that have bloomed everywhere?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lorne could not help but twitch the corner of his mouth twice. He had made everything up, but these few Fusang envoys had really taken it as the truth.
However, his eyes rolled around, and then he shook his head and spoke.
“After all, these are some unorthodox methods. How can they be the root cause of our Lolan Empire’s large population?
“The reason why our Lolan Empire’s population is so dense is because we are rich in resources. Therefore, this unique secret recipe is only suitable for a small country like Fusang.”
The few envoys from Fusang nodded. What Lorne said made sense to them.
The Lolan Empire had always been so large. Even in some extreme times of war, they could easily crush a mere country like Japan.
Therefore, there was no comparison between the two. Perhaps only Fusang could adapt to such an unorthodox method. As for whether the men and women of the Lolan Empire were open to each other, it was not that important right now.
After exchanging a few more ideas, Lorne stood up and gestured to the three Fusang people.
The three emissaries thought that Lorne was preparing to go to the toilet, so they all nodded and waved their hands.
Then Lorne left the area and went straight to the first floor, looking for the Madam who had just welcomed him.
The Madam immediately ran over with a smile on her face when Lorne sought for her.
“Young master, if you have any other desires, feel free to let me know.”
Lorne pointed upwards.
“The three people I brought just now are actually foreign visitors. They are rich and generous.
“When they come to settle the bill with you later, do what you have to do. Give the price you have to give. You must not let the girls suffer.”
The Madam was a little confused when she heard this, but after a few seconds, she instantly reacted.
She understood. So this young master Lorne was preparing to scam people.
He told her to make an offer as she should, and not to let the girl suffer. He even specifically pointed out that these three foreign visitors were generous.
Was this not asking her to be ruthless and merciless? It seemed that this young master and the three foreign visitors just now were actually not in cahoots.
It seemed that his offer was somewhat appropriate, in a way. Anyway, from the looks of these three foreigners, they did not seem to be doing business, and they were definitely not familiar with the things in Lolan City.
Moreover, this young master gave her a suggestion to milk their money, which meant that it was quite feasible.
It was a waste not to earn money. Anyway, it was not the first time that brothels did this kind of business, and they often cheated foreigners who came from afar.
Therefore, the madam signaled to Lorne and said knowingly, “I understand what you said. When they pay the bill later, we will definitely follow the rules.”
Lorne nodded in satisfaction and then turned around and walked upstairs.
He did this, of course, in secret and out of spite. He deliberately gave these three Fusang envoys the illusion that the high-end consumption of the Lolan Empire was very expensive.
In this way, it would be convenient for him to scam them more later. After all, if the price given in the brothel was not high, it would be difficult for him to do any tricks later.
When he returned to the private room, the girls in the brothel had already been arranged. The ones beside Lorne were the ones he was familiar with the last time.
The three Fusang envoys opposite him were already feeling a little smug from all of the women’s attention.
