Not far from the city gate.

Jia Quan stood behind a table, his two sons Jia Zuo and Jia You stood on both sides of the table, and Pei Yun stood behind Jia Quan.

All four of them were wearing masks. The nobles from Taoyuan County were immediately curious and walked towards them.

Xue Wenju also came over.

Looking at the masks on the four people's faces, there was a hint of surprise in his eyes. These masks were very similar to their face coverings, but they felt much more advanced.

This style of mask has never been seen before.

What did the other party shout just now, mask?

This name is very appropriate.

"Manager Jia."

Zhang Kui came out and greeted Jia Quan.

Xue Wenju asked, "Do you know him?"

"My Lord, this is the shopkeeper Jia of Zuoyou Inn. These are his two sons. Who is this?"

"My last name is Wang." Pei Yun made up a last name at random.

Xue Wenju nodded and said, "Manager Jia, you just said that this mask can prevent the spread of the disease. Is that true?"

"Of course it's true. How dare I joke about this? Wearing this mask can prevent infection to the greatest extent. Of course, nothing is absolute in the world, and I dare not say that it can prevent it absolutely, but at least it can prevent most of it."

"It's already a magical item if it can defend against most of them."

A doctor who was accompanying them said that there was no solution to the plague in this era. In the past, when the plague broke out, many villages were wiped out. The most terrifying thing about the plague was that it spread very quickly, and people had no other choice but to escape.

If this mask can prevent most infections, it would be amazing.

The other doctors also nodded.

A nobleman asked, "How much do you sell this mask for?"

"Ten taels of silver each."

Hearing the price, Zhang Zeshan picked up the mask on the table and frowned slightly. "This thing is so thin, it doesn't look special, and it's no different from a mask. Ten taels of silver for one, isn't this an exorbitant price?"

Pei Yun said at this time, "The material used to make this mask is a special fabric with complicated craftsmanship. How can it be compared with a mask? Ten taels of silver can prevent infection and protect you. If you think your life is not worth ten taels, you don't have to buy it."

Zhang Zeshan's face froze slightly, and the young man in brocade clothes beside him smiled and said, "Brother Zhang, ten taels of silver is nothing to you and me. This brother is right. Since this mask can prevent infection, let alone ten taels, I will buy it even if it is a hundred taels."

Jia Quan secretly clicked his tongue, these nobles were really rich.

Other nobles had already started to pay at this time. They fled from Taoyuan County and took almost all the silver in their homes with them. Fortunately, the refugees only robbed food but not much money, otherwise they would not be able to afford it.

Seeing these nobles start buying masks, Pei Yun smiled.

I think this money is easy to make.

Soon, everyone had masks and wore them on their faces, which they found to be more comfortable and convenient than wearing face coverings.

You just need to hang it over your ears to put it on, unlike a mask which needs to be tied at the back of your head.

“Ahem.”

At this moment, an old man with a thin face, a goatee and a sickly look made a coughing sound from his throat.

The old man took off his mask, and a pretty maid beside him immediately stepped forward, slightly bent down, and opened her mouth. The old man immediately spat the phlegm in his throat into the maid's mouth. His expression looked much better, and he put on his mask again.

The maid had no expression on her face. She just moved her throat slightly and swallowed the phlegm. Then she stepped aside with her head lowered. Judging from her level of practice, she was used to it.

The other nobles were also used to this kind of thing, after all, they did it often.

Pei Yun and Jia Quan and his two sons opened their eyes wide with shock and disbelief in their eyes.

Pei Yun looked at the maid who looked normal and felt his stomach churning. He almost vomited.

He knew that women had a low status in this era, but he had never thought it would reach this point.

That was a mouthful of old phlegm. How could you swallow it? Don’t you feel disgusted?

He knew that there were beauty bowls in ancient times, but he thought it was an exaggeration. He didn't expect to see it with his own eyes now. Seeing is believing. It's too perverted!

The maid was well-behaved. In modern times, she would definitely be a goddess in the hearts of many men, but in this era she was just a tool for catching spit.

Is this a distortion of human nature or a decline in morality?

Jia Quan and the other two were also stunned. Although they had heard about the spoiled life of the gentry, they were still deeply shocked when they saw such a scene with their own eyes.

The scholars and the common people are different, and the noble and the humble are different!

This moment is perfectly reflected.

Zhang Zeshan said with a smile: "Mr. Yuan, your beauty bowl is well-behaved, but mine all died on the way, and there is no anal dog either. They are all those damned lowly people. Sooner or later, they will be punished."

The goateed old man called Yuan Lao laughed and said, "It's not difficult to want a beauty bowl and anal dog. There are so many low-class people outside the city. As long as you set a price, those low-class people will flock to you. There's no need to worry about not finding someone."

Another nobleman laughed and said, "Yes, the weather is getting colder, and the foot-warming maids, hand-warming maids, and flesh screens should come in handy. Most of my family members are dead, so we can select some from those untouchables."

Another person asked, "There was a conflict just now. Do you think these untouchables will come?"

"Haha, being able to serve our nobles is a blessing they have earned in eight lifetimes. Even though those untouchables seemed to be very stubborn just now, as long as we go out to recruit them, they will definitely come."

"These untouchables are born to serve us. They know it, and so do we. No one can change that."
