Chapter 4: The Celestial Music Gate, the Golden-Voiced Queen Like a Dream!
Jiang Wangzu listened to the songs for a while and found them very boring, making him want to doze off.
The dance halls of that era were nothing compared to the bars of later generations.
The female DJ covered in runes.
That hot and sexy figure.
That was really awesome!
Let's take another look at this so-called Celestial Music Gate.
That's it?
You can only glimpse her legs through the slit in her cheongsam!
"That's awful! If I could do that, I'd do it too!"
Jiang Wangzu shook his head.
However, it is only the early years of the Republic of China.
This new style of dance music had only recently been introduced from the West.
This is something you can only hear in a metropolis like Shanghai.
In other small and medium-sized cities, they probably wouldn't have even heard of it.
In other areas, traditional opera and shadow puppetry still dominate.
"This is the most popular song in Shanghai this year, do you really think it's awful?"
Just then, a clear, crisp sound rang out.
"Who the hell do you think you are? Do you even know anything about singing and dancing?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wangzu turned his head away impatiently.
He then saw a pretty woman wearing a floral short-sleeved high-slit cheongsam with long, wavy hair, smiling and talking at him.
This surprised him. His sister-in-law was already a stunning beauty, but this woman in front of him was even more beautiful than his sister-in-law!
Behind the woman stood two burly bodyguards in black suits, towering like iron towers, inspiring awe.
"Kid, watch your mouth."
"Standing before you is Miss Ru Meng, the golden-voiced queen of Xianlemen."
"But her greatest talent is singing and dancing. How can you say she doesn't understand singing and dancing?"
A bodyguard behind Ru Meng stared coldly at Jiang Wangzu and said in a deep voice.
"Judging from your tattered clothes, you don't look like you came in through the main entrance."
"Who are you, and what are you doing here?"
"If someone sneaks in, that would break the rules!"
At this moment, another bodyguard also looked Jiang Wangzu up and down and said sternly.
The entrance threshold for Xianlemen is extremely high. Apart from the high-ranking officials and dignitaries of Shanghai, even the middle class rarely comes here to broaden their horizons.
Jiang Wangzu was wearing a worn-out, dusty gray long gown; he hardly looked like a wealthy man.
"What's wrong?"
"Your Xianlemen sect is discriminating against us?"
"There is a record in 'Stories to Awaken the World' that an oil seller painstakingly saved up ten taels of silver just to go to a brothel to see the courtesan he longed for."
"Is it not allowed for Jiang Wangzu, who has painstakingly saved up a thousand silver dollars, to come to Xianlemen to see the courtesan who belongs to him?"
"You're belittling me just because I'm dressed in rags? Isn't that just judging me by my appearance?"
"Have you seen these gleaming silver notes in my hand?"
Jiang Wangzu pulled out a 100-yuan banknote from his pocket and waved it in front of them.
His gaze was calm and confident as he looked at the bodyguard who had spoken earlier.
"you!"
Upon hearing this, the bodyguard behind Ru Meng frowned, about to lash out.
"Ah Hu, don't be rude!"
Just then, Rumeng spoke up.
"Jiang Wangzu, is it? I wonder if you've seen your courtesan yet?"
Ru Meng looked Jiang Wangzu over with great interest, then smiled and said.
"I hadn't seen it before, but I have now."
Jiang Wangzu smiled slightly, exchanged a glance with Ru Meng, and spoke sincerely.
"Giggle giggle."
Ru Meng burst into silvery laughter upon hearing this.
She ignored Jiang Wangzu's rustic attire and took a closer look at him.
She discovered that Jiang Wangzu was very tall, with striking eyebrows and bright eyes, a handsome face, and a sunny disposition.
This sight actually stirred something in her heart.
Seeing Ru Meng's pure yet alluring appearance, Jiang Wangzu knew that his succubus talent must have taken effect.
The reason he was able to hook up with his sister-in-law Xu Zhenzhen while weeding and tidying up the yard at his boss Chen Tai's house more than half a month ago was largely due to his succubus talent.
However, his succubus talent is mainly effective against women, and has little effect on men.
He might even be ostracized because of his excessively handsome appearance.
"But I'm only interested in people with high talent in singing and dancing. Are you very knowledgeable about singing and dancing?"
Ru Mengmei leaned close to Jiang Wangzu, her breath sweet as orchids, and whispered in his ear.
Jiang Wangzu felt a fragrant breeze waft towards him. Gazing at Ru Meng's smooth face and delicate features so close to his, he couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.
"I know a little bit!"
Jiang Wangzu nodded upon hearing this.
"Okay, then write a song for me."
"If you write well, I can grant you one request that I am capable of making."
"If you don't write well, I'll have Ah Long and Ah Hu break your limbs, cut out your tongue, and then throw you out of the Xianle Gate."
What do you think?
Ru Meng looked at Jiang Wangzu and spoke in a calm tone.
However, Jiang Wangzu felt a chilling coldness.
This woman doesn't seem to be joking!
"OK."
"If I write well, you'll spend the night with me and give me a thousand dollars as a writing fee."
Now that things have come to this, Jiang Wangzu can't back down. He stared straight at Rumeng and spoke.
"Young man, these are two separate matters!"
Ru Meng gave Jiang Wangzu a charmingly disdainful look, then said in an annoyed tone.
She couldn't help but marvel at Jiang Wangzu's audacity.
He usually wouldn't even bother to accept a dinner invitation from the chief of the Shanghai police.
Many high-ranking officials and nobles in the upper districts fell at her feet, but none of them succeeded.
Does this little man in front of her really think he can have her?
That's wishful thinking!
"I write songs for you, and you pay me for it; that's only fair."
"As for yourself, that's the one thing you're talking about that you can do."
Jiang Wangzu spoke in a serious tone.
"it is good."
"I'd like to see just what you're capable of, you little man!"
Ru Meng's eyes grew even colder.
If it were any other man, would he dare to speak to her like that?
She had already instructed Ah Long and Ah Hu to take action.
But Jiang Wangzu is really handsome after all.
She was more patient with good-looking people.
"Give me a quiet room, and then give me paper and pen."
"I'll prove it to you!"
"Just don't try to renege on your promise later!"
Jiang Wangzu spoke calmly.
Even the song that girl on stage sang was so awful, yet it's considered one of the most popular songs in Shanghai right now.
So it seems really not difficult for him to plagiarize a few classic songs from the Republican era to impress Ru Meng.
"Okay, then go to my room and write. I'll watch you write."
"Come with me!"
Ru Meng gave Ah Long and Ah Hu behind her a wink.
"Hey hey hey!"
"What are you doing? What are you doing? What are you doing?"
"Men should not touch each other."
"I can walk by myself, so stay away from me!"
"Help! This is indecent assault!"
"..."
Ah Long and Ah Hu grabbed Jiang Wangzu, who was spouting vulgarities, and lifted him up on either side.
Then I followed Rumeng up to the third floor.
The Xianle Gate has three floors and covers an area of over 3,000 square meters.
The front hall on the first floor is a dance floor, and the kitchen is at the back.
The second floor houses a small banquet hall and a small private dance hall.
The third floor is a hotel.
Generally speaking, dancers and waitresses are not allowed to live on the third floor.
However, Ru Meng is one of the four queens of the Xianlemen dance hall, and she also has an extraordinary relationship with the owner of Xianlemen.
That's why she was able to have her own place on the third floor.
