�His name is Seo Mun-pyeong, and he is called the Little Boxer4 in Jianghu. He is from Zhengzhou city in Henan Province, and is rumored to enjoy the wind with strong martial arts in the area. He came to Chengdu because of a meeting with his close friends. They would all be in Chengdu within a few days. I�ll tell you as soon as I find out their identities.�
As Soo-hyang spoke, she gently brushed up Pyo-wol�s tangled hair.
Soo-hyang was originally a prostitute who lived on a small hill in Ziyang, about a hundred li away from Chengdu.
Her family was originally famous for being well-educated. Soo-hyang�s father was also a famous scholar. But gambling was a problem.
He accidentally fell into gambling and ended up in debt.
The family was torn apart, and she went to the brothel to repay the debt. But no matter how much she sold her laughter, the debt did not diminish at all, and she died day by day in despair.
It was Pyo-wol who saved her at that time.
Pyo-wol, who had stopped by Ziyang for business, paid off all her debts and brought her back to Chengdu.
Soo-hyang built the Divine Fragrance Pavilion, and she willingly let Pyo-wol become her master. Soo-hyang secretly collected and reported the trends and information of guests who came to the Divine Fragrance Pavilion for Pyo-wol.
Most of the courtesans in Divine Fragrance Pavilion were those who were forcibly held in another brothel because of debt like Soo-hyang.
Pyo-wol gave Soo-hyang a large sum of money, and Soo-hyang bought them with the money she received from Pyo-wol and built the Divine Fragrance Pavilion.�
They were free to work anytime. No one would say anything if they stopped working, but the courtesans were more eager than anyone else.
Seo Mun-pyeong thought that he was collecting information, but in truth, his information was being transmitted to Pyo-wol through the mouths of the high-class courtesans.
At least, there was nothing that Pyo-wol did not know about what was happening in Chengdu.
Soo-hyang and the courtesans became Pyo-wol�s eyes and ears and delivered all the news within the city.
�Seo Mun-pyeong��
Pyo-wol muttered his name and got up. Then, Soo-hyang looked at Pyo-wol with a sad expression on her face.
�Are you going already?�
�There are many places for me to look around.�
�When are you coming back?�
�Soon.�
At Pyo-wol�s short answer, Soo-hyang�s face brightened quickly.
A crafty rabbit has three burrows.
Having checked the first den, it was time to explore the next one.
There have been many changes in Chengdu over the winter.
One of them is that new houses have been built in the slums.�
Since the slum suffered one great fire last year, many houses were burned to ashes. The poor could not afford to rebuild their homes so they sold their house at a cheap price and left.
As they left, the rich men of Chengsu quickly entered the place they abandoned. They swept away the ashes of the ghetto and built a large mansion. The large mansions, which increased one by one, quickly encroached upon the slums and were reborn as high-end residential areas.
People were envious of the newly built high-end residential area, called the Xintian Road.1 JrNovels.com
