32 -31: Great Success, The Miracle Hand

After being packaged and promoted by Suo Lun, their value increased tenfold or more?

This statement was met with expressions of disbelief among the girls.

In the entire royal city, brothel women worth more than a Gold Coin, including the cleaning staff, numbered no more than a few dozen, and they were all built up over many years with vast sums of money.

Yet Suo Lun was planning to launch nineteen all at once—how could this be possible?

“Young Master Suo Lun, may I ask by what means you can double our value?” one of the women asked, “Is it just because of that painting behind you?”

“Yes,” Lanling said, “This painting is an important medium, and there’s also an entirely new, unprecedented style, unprecedented clothing, and my unprecedented promotional methods.”

Despite not showing it, many of the women were still skeptical.

The painting was magical, but the idea it could double their value seemed far-fetched.

And what exactly was this entirely new style Suo Lun spoke of?

In the royal city’s brothel industry, what style hadn’t been tried?

What kind of dress hadn’t been tried—even standing naked in the street to attract customers had been done.

A style that could double someone’s value?

They just couldn’t believe it.

Lanling said, “Now, we will start the auction for the precious spots of the Royal City’s Top Nineteen.

The bidding starts at fifty Gold Coins.

Who wishes to be the first, to undergo my unprecedented packaging and promotion?”

Fifty Gold Coins?

The girls on-site all adored Young Master Suo Lun, so supporting him with one or two Gold Coins was feasible, but several dozen Gold Coins was out of the question.

These women had been alone all their lives, with their only reliable assets being the Gold Coins in their chests, which they depended on for their entire lives.

While the income of brothel women was very high, their youth was too short, leaving them just a few years to earn money.

Among the girls present, some, like Yi Manman, had managed to save up a thousand Gold Coins.

However, most of the women could only accumulate a hundred or so Gold Coins in their lifetime.

Moreover, the few hundred women present were already the highest earners in the royal city’s brothel industry.

To gamble fifty Gold Coins on an elusive title like the Royal City’s Top Nineteen, they were unwilling to do that.

Moreover, they simply did not believe that a painting, a so-called new style, could double their value in a short period of time.

Thus the whole scene fell into an awkward silence.

Especially those who had been promoted by Suo Lun in the past—they were willing to support him but reluctant to part with so much money.

Just then, a plant arranged by Lanling appeared.

Ye Xiaoxian, in a white dress, raised her hand and said, “Young Master Suo Lun… I, I am willing to be the first of your Royal City’s Top Nineteen.”

She then brought up a chest and handed it to Yi Manman, inside which were exactly fifty Gold Coins.

Of course, this money was actually provided by Yi Manman herself.

Ye Xiaoxian, although she had that much money, truly couldn’t bear to part with it as she had saved it up one silver coin at a time.

Lanling said, “Good, we have our first bidder.

Now I will conduct my review.

It’s not just about paying to become one of the Royal City’s Top Nineteen.

One must have their own distinct personality and characteristics to qualify.”

After scrutinizing Ye Xiaoxian carefully for a few minutes, Lanling nodded and said, “You can be one of the Royal City’s Top Nineteen.

Now, is there anyone willing to be the second?”

The scene was plunged into an awkward silence once again.

After a long while, no one responded.

The atmosphere was truly awkward.

Were it aligned with Lanling’s own personality, he would have been blushing with embarrassment by now, wishing he could run away.

However, he was performing as Suo Lun, perfectly capable of staying composed.

“Fine, since no one is willing to be the second, I will begin the new packaging for Yi Manman.

Tonight, everyone will see the results.

Will Ye Xiaoxian’s value double, will customers flock to her?

If not, I will give her a hundred Gold Coins,” Lanling said.

An audible gasp followed, leaving Ye Xiaoxian stunned, as were many of the other women present.

Lanling continued, “Since there is no second bidder, today’s event comes to an end.

Ladies, please go back and rest.

Lack of sleep is the biggest enemy of a woman’s beauty.

As for the results of my packaging, you will see them tonight.

I need to start on Ye Xiaoxian’s transformation, excusing myself.”

Then, Lanling, taking Ye Xiaoxian with him, left the hall and headed to the back courtyard.

The many women left, filled with immense anticipation for the night.

But deep down, they remained skeptical about Suo Lun’s ability to multiply Ye Xiaoxian’s value several times over.

…

Within Yi Manman’s courtyard.

“See, not a single person was willing to pay fifty Gold Coins,” Yi Manman said.

“You’ve made your grand claims; let’s see how you live up to them.

Otherwise, shall we spend more money on plants to hype up Ye Xiaoxian tonight?”

“No, that would be really scamming people for money.

Besides, these women are all cunning; they’ve already figured out that Ye Xiaoxian is a plant.

If we even find plants to act as customers, they’ll be even more suspicious.

I’d completely lose credibility,” Lanling replied.

“I assure you, Ye Xiaoxian will have customers lining up, and her value will double.”

Then, Lanling began the process of packaging Ye Xiaoxian.

“First, you can’t keep the stage name Ye Xiaoxian; change it to Xiao Mao!”

“Your route should be sexy, fiery, and willful, not just throwing coquettish glances and endlessly flattering men.

You should look down on them from above.”

“And this flowing long dress doesn’t suit you at all.

You should wear fierce, sexy, and unprecedented clothing, which, of course, I will design for you.”

Lanling picked up his paintbrushes, and this time, it wasn’t just charcoal but colorful ones, dozens of them.

Furthermore, it wasn’t just a two-foot portrait this time, but a two to three-meter large poster.

He even had to stand on a chair to paint.

“Xiao Mao, take off your skirt, leaving only your undergarments.

Lie on top of the brocade stool with your upper body, fully showing off your body contours, and display a wild, willful expression,” Lanling instructed.

While speaking, he also helped Ye Xiaoxian pose and adjust her expression, aiming for the most provocative look.

Then, he began to paint on the large white board.

This was the first piece of his “Nineteen Hairpins of the Royal City”, success was the only option, failure was not.

It was still a nude portrait, but this time it was in color, yes, color, making it even more impactful.

But there was no need to be as realistic as Yi Manman’s, achieving 80% likeness to a photo would suffice.

Under Lanling’s brush, Ye Xiaoxian had completely transformed her style and attire.

She was only wearing a tight-fitting black top and a wrapped mini skirt.

Her long legs were dressed in black fishnet stockings, and her feet were in unprecedented high-heeled leather shoes.

And her hair, it was completely wavy, topped off with cat ears styling.

In short, Ye Xiaoxian had been thoroughly changed from head to toe.

From an ancient woman from another world, she had turned into a modern girl, a fiery, sexy cat woman.

Whether it was the bra, the super-tight mini skirt, the black fishnets, or the high heels, they were all modern elements.

In women’s attire, the aesthetic standpoint of humanity is always changing rapidly, constantly progressing.

In terms of attracting hormones, the style of modern women utterly defeats that of women from a thousand years ago.

A mini skirt is surely more sensual than an ancient long dress.

A bikini is without a doubt hotter than wide ancient silk trousers, right?

This portrait took Lanling nearly ten hours to complete.

By that time, Ye Xiaoxian and Yi Manman had long since succumbed to sleep.

…

After a full ten hours, Lanling was almost exhausted to collapse, but finally, it was done.

On the nearly three-meter-tall poster, a modern sexy lady like none before, a woman as sultry as a cat, came to life, immensely hot and sensual.

Lanling woke up Yi Manman and Ye Xiaoxian, saying, “Alright, I’ve finished the painting.

Now you can use the poster as a reference to make your new clothes, new shoes, and the fishnet stockings.

Remember, weave the stockings from shrinking animal tendons and dye them black.”

Ye Xiaoxian and Yi Manman groggily opened their eyes and saw the huge poster for the first time.

Instantly, they were jolted awake.

Especially Ye Xiaoxian, she could hardly believe the image of herself on the poster.

“Ah…” Then, she let out a piercing scream.

“Is, is that really me?

How can it be so beautiful, so…

captivating?”

Yi Manman, too, couldn’t believe what she saw, and she had a feeling that Suo Lun was really going to be successful, that he was going to create a miracle.

…

Half an hour later, more than a dozen employees of Yuhua Pavilion carried out the three-meter-high poster, parading it through the streets of the Royal City while shouting.

“The Zhi Du Art Committee presents: ‘Nineteen Hairpins of the Royal City’s Ye Xiaomao from Yuhua Pavilion!’ ” They chanted while banging gongs and drums.

Of course, the so-called Zhi Du Art Committee consisted only of Lanling.

The streets of the Royal City were bustling at every moment of every day, for it was a super metropolis with a population of over a million.

The moment the giant poster was carried out, it caused an unprecedented sensation.

Could there really be such portraits?

Exactly like real people?

This was completely sorcery!

People of this world, without photographs, had never seen such lifelike portraits, and now, in full color, everyone was utterly shocked.

Moreover, this poster was so sexy, so explosive.

Unlike the painting of Yi Manman, Ye Xiaomao’s (Ye Xiaoxian’s) portrait was all about being as sexy as possible, as soul-enticing as possible, with the sole purpose of eliciting men’s hormones.

In short, the portrait had to be even more fiery and beautiful than the real person.

This was all too common on Earth.

Some women, who were at best a seven in terms of looks, could, with the right angle, curves shown, lighting effects, and Photoshop, soar to a charm value of nine when their photo shoot pictures came out.

Looking at those models’ photos could almost make blood rush to one’s head.

At this moment, Lanling used all these techniques.

Ye Xiaomao was already extremely beautiful, and with modern styling by Lanling and the explosive poses showcased on the poster, she immediately captured all male onlookers’ attention.

“This woman, how can she be so heart-stopping?

Just one look and it feels like fire is about to burst out of my body.”

“Heaven, I’ve never seen clothes like these before, but they’re so enticing.”

“Yes, right, and these stockings, and these shoes…

I can’t take it anymore, I’m all on fire, I need to go put out the flames.”

In less than half an hour, the team carrying Ye Xiaomao’s poster from Yuhua Pavilion caused an immense sensation.

Thousands upon thousands of people went wild over the three-meter poster with its unprecedented realism, unprecedented styling, and unprecedented sexiness.

The situation was like suddenly displaying a Playboy swimsuit model poster on the streets of the Ming Dynasty.

The impact and sensation it caused were beyond imagination.

Just two hours later, the entire Royal City was completely astir.
