Zhenguan Xiaoxian Wang Li Shen Li Shimin

The big man called Third Brother patted Xiaoliu on the shoulder and said, seeing Xiaoliu's envious look:

"Isn't it our turn now?

I heard that they made hundreds of coins in the past few months. What does that count for?

We can probably sell these three blankets in our car for at least twenty or thirty strings of cash.

I heard that this thing is worth several hundred strings of cash when it is new.

"Hundreds of strings of cash? No way, how can a blanket be so expensive?"

When he heard the number of several hundred strings of coins, Xiaoliu opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened in surprise, and his voice naturally became louder.

"Look at your useless appearance. We are servants of Prince Ji's mansion. Although we are just slaves and have no right to go to the backyard,

But we have seen a lot of good things.”

The third brother looked at Xiaoliu with disdain when he saw his expression.

"Third brother, it's not that I'm useless, I heard that the best blankets in the Western Regions are only worth about 100 strings of cash.

The lowest quality one costs twenty strings of cash, how can it be so expensive as several hundred strings of cash? "

Xiaoliu was a little unconvinced.

The third brother looked at Xiaoliu with disdain and said:

"You are talking about what others use. How can our Prince Ji use the same blankets as others? I heard that these blankets are of top quality.

Why would His Royal Highness Prince Ji use the same thing as others?"

"I see. It's a pity that these blankets worth several hundred kan are so hot."

Xiaoliu suddenly realized.

"You know nothing. Our Prince Ji is very wealthy. Didn't you see that the blanket is dirty?"

"Third brother, if it's dirty, just wash it. It's a shame to throw it away."

Looking at Xiaoliu’s expression, you can tell that he really wants to say that he is a spendthrift.

"Nonsense, if we don't throw it away, how can it be a good deal for you and me? Besides, His Royal Highness Prince Ji said that the quality of this blanket is average, and it is far inferior to the top-quality blankets in the Tang Dynasty.

It’s not worth cleaning. It takes too long to clean and wastes manpower. It’s better to just throw it away.”

The conversation between the two was heard word for word by the people around them, and many people took a few more glances at the blanket on the garbage truck.

Not only was there a layer of dust on it, there were also several marks and much of it was covered in mud, so the pattern couldn't be discerned.

But even so, when I heard that Prince Ji's Mansion was going to throw away these blankets worth hundreds of coins, and that they were going to throw away three of them,

Most people secretly cursed Li Shen for being a spendthrift.

"We'll find a stream to brush the blankets later. I've brought all the tools.

Even if it is not cleaned well, it can still be sold for a good price. It should not be too much to sell it for twenty or thirty guan for something worth hundreds of guan, right?"

When it comes to money, Third Brother and Xiaoliu both have smiles on their faces, because the garbage in Prince Ji's mansion is so valuable.

"Excuse me, gentlemen."

Just then a businessman came over. He had just heard the conversation between the two people.

"My dear, you are so polite. What is the matter?"

The two of them returned the greeting and asked, as servants of Prince Ji's Mansion, they cannot be lacking in etiquette, and they were all trained by special people sent by the Ministry of Rites.

"My apologies, gentlemen. I just overheard your conversation and came here to discuss something with you.

Oh, my surname is Qi, my name is Qi Baijin, and I’m from Mengzhou.”

Qi Baijin first introduced himself.

"Well...I wonder what Mr. Qi wants to discuss?"

The third brother asked cautiously.

"Don't be nervous, you two. You are from Prince Ji's Mansion. Even if I have a hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to provoke you.

I just listened to your conversation and would like to buy these three blankets. What do you think? "

Qi Baijin said bluntly.

The third brother frowned, looked around, and then shook his head.

"Mr. Qi, we are just servants sent out of the city to deal with waste for Prince Ji's mansion. How can we sell our master's things privately?

Even if Mr. Qi wanted to buy it, he would have to go to Prince Ji's mansion to discuss it.

We have no say in this.”

When the people nearby heard what the Third Brother said, they all sneered in their hearts. He just said that he had washed it and sold it in the city, but now he pretended to say that it was the owner's property.

This is because he is afraid that someone in the city will find out and tell Prince Ji’s Mansion.

"Hahahaha, Qi understands, I understand. You two are dealing with the waste, but it's ok for Qi to wait in the back to pick it up. It's all waste anyway."

When Qi Baijin saw the look his third brother gave him, he immediately understood and laughed.

"We can't control this. Prince Ji's Mansion didn't say that others can't pick it up."

The third brother nodded.

"Thank you very much, gentlemen."

"You are Welcome."

The two reached an agreement, and Qi Baijin seemed to be in a good mood afterwards. Many people understood the secret between them.

Everyone was extremely jealous that Qi Baijin was able to stand out and take advantage of such a big advantage.

Why didn’t I think of this just now?

Qi Baijin stood next to the third brother and Xiaoliu and started chatting.

"By the way, my dear, I am very curious, even though this blanket is a little dirty, why did King Ji not want it?"

"Didn't you hear what I said just now?" the third brother asked back.

"Yes, I heard it, but just now my husband said that Prince Ji disliked the quality of the Western Region blankets. This is hard to imagine."

Qi Baijin looked a little unconvinced.

"Humph, don't disbelieve what I said. Do you know why this blanket is so dirty?"

The third brother asked with a cold snort.

Qi Baijin shook his head, and the people nearby pricked up their ears, wanting to hear the reason.

Zhang San saw that Qi Baijin didn't know, and said arrogantly:

"It's okay to tell you that although this blanket from the Western Regions is a top-grade product for you, it is only a low-grade product in my Prince Ji's Palace.

Prince Ji spread it on the ground outside and used it as a footstool for the young men and women in the family to play with.

Afraid they’d hurt themselves.

The blankets from the Western Regions are not even worthy of entering the bedroom of Prince Ji’s mansion, and are only used by servants like us.

Look at the filth on it, it is the mark left by the little masters' feces and urine.

Change it once a day, and you need several blankets each time.

These three days were used by our little masters yesterday, so we will throw them away today."

"What? It's actually used as a cushion for children."

"This is too extravagant, laying it outside."

"Your Highness Prince Ji is indeed very wealthy."

"It's just a defensive item, for servants to use."

After hearing this, everyone talked about it. Qi Baijin also looked shocked. He carefully examined the blanket and even smelled it.

"My dear, you are right. It still smells like urine, but this is a top-quality blanket from the Western Regions.

Why did Prince Ji say it was something to resist?"

"Mr. Qi, you think these are high-end things, but because of your status here, your vision is not broad enough.

There are some nobles who like this, but if you ask carefully, they are all minor nobles. How could a great noble like our Prince Ji be interested in this kind of thing?

Although they are servants, they have seen the world. This kind of blanket is not only not allowed in the backyard of Prince Ji's mansion,

Even the front yard steward is not needed. The steward uses the finest blankets in the Tang Dynasty given by His Royal Highness Prince Ji.

This kind of blanket is given by His Royal Highness Prince Ji and the Princess to reward us servants in Prince Ji’s mansion.”
