Edo Traveler

　　 Shogunate orders, Yoshihara Kabukicho is naturally full of wailing. Whether it's the Howling Dechuan family kicked their legs and ascended to heaven, or howling I will not open for at least a month, it must be true to howl.

　　 Leaning on the left and right of the corridor, and the geisha with their ears outside the barriers, are even more disintegrating. The shop sitting in the Yamato room to attend the meeting borrowed the bosses to know at least a little bit of internal news, but these practitioners are all working for the boss, so how can they know in advance?

　　 If it’s an oiran, it’s okay, but under a few dozen oiran, there are thousands of practitioners such as Mizuko, Banyu, Maiko who are not geisha at all. Either they have not yet fully trained as a teacher, and can only provide services in ways such as dancing. Either it is old and declining, and can only serve as a foil for young geishas, ​​helping to pour wine or pass food. Either he is too young and Tiankui hasn’t arrived yet, so he can’t pick up customers at all...

　　 Thousands of women of all kinds gather in Kabukicho in Yoshiwara, all relying on men who come to consume every day. Once you can't participate in the reception one day, you really have to stop cooking.

　　 is like a woman who glimpsed from the corner of Chuemon's eye. She was about twenty years old. If she was famous, she would be the most beautiful age for a geisha. But they didn't have a benefactor by their side. Obviously, they didn't pick up the job last night. Two years later, they will become a maid and become a maid.

　　The geisha on the lower level is like this, but the oiran on the upper level is actually not much better. As the existence of a personal sale and purchase agreement signed with Fengyue Place, even if you become an oiran, half or more of all income must be handed over to her landlord.

　　 Oiran’s peak career is often quite short, and flowers do not become popular for a hundred days. Once the high shore is photographed by the back waves, the future may not be much better.

　　 Therefore, the goal of many geishas is not necessarily to become an oiran, but to quickly find a "dan" when they are young and beautiful. The word "Danna" can be interpreted as a husband or a master. But from the term geisha, the meaning is more clear.

　　 Supporter!

　　 is described in literary or more neutral terms, and it can be called "art supporter". The best way for a geisha is to be taken care of by a rich and identifiable man, and become his concubine or second wife. This kind of thing is quite common among the townspeople, especially among the wealthy merchants engaged in handicrafts and commerce.

　　 After all, many monopoly merchants in collusion with the shogunate knew that the shogunate officials were not allowed to stay in Yoshiwara, so they included the top oiran and a certain number of kabuki to receive those shogunate officials in private places. The matter of public relations has been a very common thing throughout the ages and in the later generations of Japan, and the form has changed.

　　 Now they will not be able to open for the next month, but they have to borrow the owner’s accommodation, food, and salaries for a day when they live in Fengyue Place. One day or two can be carried over, but one month is enough to make most of the geisha in front of them empty their homes and further become a tool for some people to make money.

　　 It is said that at the most exaggerated time, because of the oppression, even a high-level geisha like Oiran has no money. Only if you are sure that there are customers who will come and consume today, will you get up for bathing and dressing. Then asked her maid to take the change, about one or two gold, and go to the pawnshop to redeem the top jewellery she was going to use today.

　　 When the pick-up is complete, I will return these outfits to the pawnshop early the next morning. Once lost a hairpin made of tortoiseshell, the little maid who sent her head in fright dived and committed suicide.

Ugh…

　　 We are just a small shogunate temporary worker. Naturally, we can't manage these things. Generation after generation, geisha for 200 years have lived in such a painful life. According to history, they will have to live a miserable life for at least one hundred years before they can make a difference.

　　 "Since the Daigosho has been promoted, I must wait to obey the shogunate's decree!" The town of Yoshihara bowed his head first, expressing his response to the shogunate's edict.

　　 Machikata was a temporary worker in the shogunate. He ate by the shogunate. Although he was deeply tied to the interests of Yoshihara's bosses, he also knew the root of his life. It is of course impossible for a group of boss shops to resist the power of the shogunate, so they can only bow their heads one after another, expressing acceptance.

　　 Very good. I originally thought that the authority of the shogunate had declined. According to history, it was really good for the past 20 years. I didn't expect it to be a king now. Perhaps there is also a reason why this is in Edo, the base camp of the Tokugawa shogunate, and the order is really a one-sentence matter.

　　 Looking at the crying bosses in front of them, UU reading www. Uukanshu.com Heizo didn't make any long comments either. He just said that he waited until he knew it. He immediately got up and didn't stop.

　　 It was the town that stopped Heizo, and said that Shangguan came, how can he let them entertain him. Even just staying for breakfast is good, and it doesn't take much trouble. In a Jinjin Cave like Yoshihara, everything can be heard instantly, but it is just a moment of effort.

　　 After listening to Namachikata, all the bosses also meant the same, and they stepped forward to ask Heizo and Chuemon to stay for breakfast before leaving. Originally, Ping San still remembered what his brother said, if others give you something, you must never reach out. Right now is a critical period, and you must be careful when you act.

　　 But having breakfast, it shouldn’t be a big deal. It was enough to pay at most. The two of them stayed up all night, and after running again, they were really hungry and panicked. If you don't mention eating, it's fine, but now that it is mentioned, all the greedy worms are really coming up.

　　 Seeing the two of them hesitate, Namachikata took the opportunity to greet a few maids and greeted Heizo and Chuemon into a smaller Japanese room. It seems to have been prepared long ago. There are screens made of Caijuan flowers in the room, and even the barrier doors are pasted with Jingtang paper. Not only is it warm like spring, but also has a faint fragrance.

　　 Before long, seven or eight geishas came in, playing various musical instruments. Heizo and Chuemon knew that this must be a "corrosion" to the staff of the new shogunate who had just debuted, and they waved their hands quickly, saying that eating was just fine, and no female music was needed.

　　 The female music just left, and another male geisha came in. This one is not an Israeli waiter, but a slang talk before the guests wait for the drink and the geisha to arrive. There is nothing to refuse. Even if the general is in a mourning, I can't be forbidden to listen to others.

　　 "Hurry up, fast, how can you teach two adults to wait!"
