Since guan zhong founded it that year"
Women's Lu Pavilion
After that, this industry has been accompanied by several dynastic changes, until the Republic of China period.
Guan Zhong's intention to set up the "Women's Lu Pavilion" was very clear, that is, to "
Just bad money
”。 During the Spring and Autumn Period, the monarchs of the princely states never lacked women, and the number of female officials in various positions reached several hundred at a slight reckoning.
In addition to the monarch, there are not a few such women in the family of high-ranking officials and doctors. But when they went on business trips to other princely states, they could not enjoy the convenience of this aspect, and at that time, there was no mobile phone and network, and there was no electricity at night, which was very boring.
So Guan Zhong's spirit moved and opened"
This greatly boosted the economy of the State of Qi, and the envoys of other princely states released themselves here, even if they threw thousands of dollars.
As a result, other princely states followed suit, and the industry began to explode during that period.
Nu Lu transformed into a Green House
With the development of the times, the "Women's LuGuan" is no longer official, and has evolved into a high, medium, and low grade, opened for different social groups.
During the Tang Dynasty, the Qinglou, which originally represented the high-rise compound of the rich and noble, became synonymous with the land of fireworks. Many poets also went to the Qinglou to release themselves, and Du Mu of the Tang Dynasty wrote:
Spring breeze ten miles Yangzhou Road, rolling up the bead curtain is always better.
This classic verse was written by Du Mu to the girl in the Qinglou when he was in Yangzhou, and who knows that it has become a classic known to the world. Later, it evolved into "Spring Wind Ten Miles Is Not as Good as You", which was used as a confessional word, which is really outrageous.
In the Song Dynasty period, there were not a few people who had nothing to go to the Qinglou to spend money to buy drunks, liu Yong was a typical representative of it, and he bid farewell to the girls of the Qinglou and also made a song "Raining Bells", in which he and the Girls of the Qinglou "held hands and looked at each other with tears, and they were so excited that they could not speak."
These are some girls in high-end places, in addition to dressing up beautifully, they must also be proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, in addition to those small skills that win the hearts of guests, but also have some real talents, only those who can resonate with the hearts of guests can be fire.
The old bustard in this kind of place basically plays the role of a "lobby manager", coordinating guests and girls, after all, the resources in hand are highly matched, and many girls are willing to engage in this industry, which is the most relaxed type of old bustard.
The high-end is called the Qinglou, and the low-end can only be called the secret door
At first, this industry was mainly aimed at the families of officials and eunuchs, and later with the development of society, it began to move closer to the civilian class, and then produced a high-end, high-end, low-end, and able to face different customer groups.
The high-end one is called the Qinglou, and the low-end one can only be called "kiln" or "secret door". Most of the girls in it are from a bitter background, because the family is poor and cannot eat and is sold to the "secret door".
The training system of "secret door sub", compared with the Qinglou, is simply a heaven and an underground, and most of them take the old with the new as the main model.
In this way, the work intensity of the old duck is much greater than that of the "leading mother" in the Qinglou, and due to their own standards, they will use violent training methods for girls in the store.
If the new girl resists, the old bustard will first shut her up, and then provide only water but no food. In this way, they force good families to obey, and the presence of water increases hunger but reduces the risk of starvation.
Ordinary girls will obey when they are too hungry to bear it, and even if they are not, they will provide food and start beating them instead.
Severe beatings are not random beatings, the girls' faces cannot be beaten, even if they are beaten, they will not be beaten to the skin, which will affect the girls' future "money path".
They often use the way of twisting the flesh on the inner thighs, or using needles, which is both painful and easy to recover, and it is not easy to leave scars.
In an old newspaper during the Republic of China period, the brutal side of the old ducks in the old society was recorded.
A report in the Old Republic of China Newspaper confirmed the ruthlessness of the old bustard
The Republic of China period coincided with a period of alternation between the old and the new, with both the remnants of ancient dross and fresh ideas. At that time, the society was in chaos, and many people even had a luxury to eat.
So many people ran to the countryside to flee, and in that social background at that time, there were far fewer job opportunities than now, especially women, most of whom still had to rely on the male labor of the family to eat.
A woman named Yang Erma fled to Bozhou with her two young "daughters", and her livelihood became a problem, so she started the business of "secret door".
Bozhou Tiancang Street and Porcelain Street are the two most prosperous streets there, and the famous flower street Liu Lane is comparable to the eight hutongs in Beijing.
In the small courtyard on the street side, as long as a small red card is hung, you can do the business of "secret door".
The two young women in the hands of Yang Erma, one of whom was her own daughter, the other was adopted by the way in exile, relying on this skin and meat business, several people can also be regarded as their first bucket of gold.
Therefore, Yang Erma thought of getting her daughter Congliang, and then spent money to buy a new woman to take her place.
But contrary to her wishes, the new girls could not adapt to this kind of life for a long time, and even burned "smoke cannons" for the guests could not learn, and Yang Erma's mother was angry and frustrated, so she used a burning red cigarette stick to stick on her body.
Later, Second Mother Yang simply beat her directly, did not buy her cotton clothes in winter, and after beating her, she also threw cold water on her.
In this way, after this girl was tortured by Yang Erma for half a year, she cried out for her life.
Murder offense? This kind of thinking did not form in the minds of the old bustards at all, and they simply thought that what they had bought with their own money, even if they were tortured to death, would not break the law, which seemed like a joke now.
After Yang Erma tortured people to death, she ordered people to throw the body to the mass burial site, but later Yang Erma actually offended a customer who came to the store to consume because of her mouth.
After the guest learned of Yang Erma's "previous crime", he went directly to the county court to complain about her, and this guest also hyped up, so that the county magistrate could not care.
In the end, the staff of the county court found the body of the dead girl in the mass burial post, and after forensic identification, the evidence of Yang Erma's murder was conclusive and sentenced to death, and this evil old bustard finally paid the price of his life.
postscript
In the old society, especially in the secret door, the means of torturing people were unimaginable. Fortunately, it's all history.
In this way, the ban on the Qinglou industry has great progressive significance, which has saved tens of thousands of young girls and avoided countless evil old ducks from being born.
In the midst of the chaos, these things on the dark side of society are fortunately a thing of the past.
