说在战乱之中，浩城这座大都城已经萧条，想起何曾几时，这还是那天下闻名的大都会，客商云集，与皇城之近，北靠戴河，交通往来方便，北方的毛皮，马匹等等许多物资，都是从浩城经转皇城。这里的繁华，大有与皇城一争之势。
而这里的繁华，就如同一夜春梦般，被这无情的战争所淹没。如今剩下的，只有空荡荡的街道，一缕凉风吹过的荒凉。
而在这荒凉之中，却依然存在着这浩城的奢华火苗，那就是翠云台。翠云台，在战事未起之时，便已是浩城之中数一数二的豪门聚地。能到这里消遣的无一不是达官显贵巨富商贾。俗语有云，纵有金山败不垮，千金散尽翠云台，说的就是这里的消费，只要你有钱，不管你多有钱，这里总归能有地方让你花光。
战事之后的翠云台，虽然没有之前的繁花似锦，却依然热闹。因为这个时候，四方军队云集，高职将领一波多过一波。而这翠云台似乎也不惧这战事之危，依然开门迎客，似比战前更为热闹。
而这一天，翠云台客人络绎不绝，三三两两的高官将领来往。平日里还有其它地方可去，现在也只有这翠云台。
小雨过后，路上已经显得有些湿沽，这依然不减众多权势的消费热情。一座三层来高的雄伟建筑，屋檐上琉璃镇镇神兽落在四角，门口珠光宝气。
这翠云台是整个帝国都有的酒楼。听说在被占领的北方地区，这翠云台在巴图帝国的占领下都依然开放。这说的也没错，这样的消费场所，巴图帝国也有众多的高级将领需要地方消遣。据说这翠云台后面的老板的背景之深，就连巴图帝国方面的关系也可以搞定。
“吁！”
一声喝停，一辆马车停在翠云台门口，门口的侍童立即应声而来。
马车上，袁文华将军与他的属下傅小蛙跳下马车。见这时的袁文华少将军一身精心的打扮，身着文金青狮祥云衫，脚踏青云步藕履。而傅小蛙一顶小青帽。身着伴读小书童的灰布便装。站在袁文华少将军旁边好是神气。
见这翠云台门口，比人还大的灯笼高挂，这里的热闹让人一点也见不着战事将近的影子。浩城未破，家业在浩城的富商尚未撤去。结识官家找寻靠山的人皆有之。
夜幕将至。华灯初上。傅小蛙整整头上的小帽儿，深呼一口新鲜空气。望望四周，他也是想不到这浩城还有这么一块喧哗地方。
各种声音不绝与耳。见那主子从马车上来下，小心翼翼地避过路上水洼，生怕脏了他那双挑选了无数次的鞋子。
袁文华没少来这样的场所，处之泰然，珊珊移步向门口走去。门童见那马车豪华，来者也是光鲜，满脸笑迎过来道：“这位公子，您几位？”
袁文华打开折扇，潇洒翩翩地道：“预四五个人的位置罢，给我最好的位子！”
傅小蛙望着下雨天，门口依然红毯辅垫，实在是奢侈之极，让客商满是泥污的鞋子踩上去也不觉心痛。
袁文华满心高兴，今天这事，花再多的钱都不觉心痛，多少也要撑个场面。而且他袁家也是小户人家，掌管整个南方军权的袁家，家中也是不缺钱花。
“实在是抱歉，最好的位子已经被人预定，不如这样，您选地字号的厢阁，这也绝不掉了档次！”
袁文华皱皱眉道：“你是怕我出不起这钱么？”
那门童说是门童，也有二三十岁的年纪，忙着解释道：“不是不是，因为我家翠云台的大东家今日特别到临，所以这天子号的厢阁，自然是留给我们大东家！”
见这门童这样说来，袁文华虽然扫兴，却也不得不应下来：“好罢，地字号就地字号，你们翠云台在南方也开不少家，你们的东西我也知道，东西只管往最好的上！”
“是是！”
