Chapter 805: Bargain Price
As soon as Tang Bao finished speaking, not only Bai Shuxiang was shocked, but the old lady and others were even more shocked.
They naturally guessed the origin of the thing in Tang Bao's hand, but they didn't expect that it was made by Tang Bao himself.
How old is Tang Bao?
No matter how much they guessed, they would never guess that Tang Bao could make such a thing.
"How is that possible? How could you make that?" Bai Shuxiang said in shock. "It's said that Ganoderma lucidum is added to it, which has the effect of immortality!"
"My master is Dr. Hua, and those things were all developed by my master. As his apprentice, I naturally know how to make them." Tang Bao said as a matter of course: "As for the Ganoderma lucidum, it's not a rare thing."
They have a large group of them at home.
Bai Shuxiang: “…”
Not rare? Still not rare?
That is the legendary Ganoderma lucidum!
Bai Shuxiang's hands tightly grasped the handkerchief, her heart pounding, and the look in her eyes when she looked at Tang Bao changed.
In her eyes, Tang Bao is a silly little sheep with thick wool...
Pull! You must pull! Pull hard!
As for the other members of the Bai family, the way they looked at Tang Bao also changed.
Not to mention anything else, just the Ganoderma lucidum alone made them excited and their eyes burned.
Bai Shuxiang tried hard to calm her pounding heart. She raised her chin, looking condescending, and said, "Since you can make health pills and anti-aging cream, sell me a few bottles. You can name your price!"
Anyway, a little girl from the country might think that dozens of taels of silver is a lot of money!
As soon as Bai Shuxiang finished speaking, the Second Madam said anxiously, "And me! I want a few bottles too! No! I want as many as you have!"
It’s better to get this kind of good stuff first.
I have to say that the second lady's attitude is much more sincere.
Bai Shuxiang was obviously anxious and excited, but she used a condescending tone.
The people of the Bai clan looked at each other and couldn't help but speak.
"Miss Su, I want a few bottles too..."
"Little girl, auntie also wants two bottles..."
“…”
Tang Bao shook her head and said simply, "Not for sale!"
Everyone: “…”
His expression froze.
"Why?" Bai Shuxiang cried out, "I already told you, you can name your price!"
"Do you think I look like I'm short of money?" Tang Bao looked at Bai Shuxiang in confusion and asked.
Bai Shuxiang immediately said, "You're just a little girl from the countryside. I'm afraid you don't know what it means to be short of money, right? Do you think having enough food and clothes doesn't mean you're short of money? I'm afraid you've never seen anything good..."
Bai Shuxiang's voice suddenly stopped, and her eyes were fixed on the clothes on Tang Bao.
The breeze blew across Tang Bao's skirt, bringing up a hint of brilliant red glow.
Golden light flows in the red glow, winding and dazzling.
Bai Shuxiang couldn't help but take a few steps forward and reached out to touch Tang Bao's clothes.
"Could this... be brocade?" Bai Shuxiang murmured.
Then, he shouted, "Mom, look, is this Yunjin?"
The eldest lady was preoccupied with the master kneeling in the ancestral hall. After hearing her daughter's words, she said impatiently, "There are only a dozen bolts of brocade produced each year, and all of it is sent as tribute to the palace. Even the concubines in the palace don't get a share. How could a little girl like her possibly wear clothes made of brocade?"
What's more, children grow up quickly and their clothes will soon be too small to fit them.
It would be such a waste to use brocade to make clothes.
Even princesses, I heard, didn't wear clothes made of brocade when they were young.
Not to mention a little girl from the country.
Bai Shuxiang listened to the eldest lady's words and felt that they made sense.
But if this material is not brocade, then what is it?
Tang Bao said innocently: "But I heard that this material is called Yunjin."
Bai Shuxiang: “…”
Madam: “…”
The eldest lady couldn't help but take a few steps forward and take a closer look.
Other members of the Bai family also gathered around.
One touches the sleeve, the other touches the shoulder...
Tang Bao: “…”
I shouldn't have said so much.
However, aren't the ladies of wealthy families supposed to be polite and respectful at all times?
This kind of rare and surprising look is too down-to-earth, isn't it?
When I was in the village, every time I went out wearing new clothes, the aunts, grannies and young ladies would like to touch my new clothes and discuss what the material was.
Tang Bao didn't know that most of these people thought she was from the countryside and was young, so they didn't pay much attention to her and were not afraid of losing her value or face.
If it weren't for the relationship between Xuanyuan Jin and the Queen Mother, they wouldn't have taken a little girl like Tang Bao seriously at all.
"It's really Yunjin!" the eldest lady exclaimed.
Then, his brows furrowed slightly.
The Third Prince dotes on this little girl from the Su family too much!
Such a rare material was actually given to her to wear for fun.
The eldest lady was not wrong in her guess. This material was indeed given to Tang Bao by Xuanyuan Jin.
Originally, Xuanyuan Jin had ordered people in the capital to make new clothes for Tang Bao and send them to Daliushu Village.
However, the embroidery work produced by Fudexiufang in the past two years has surpassed that of the capital.
In particular, Tang Bao's embroidery skills have inherited the true tradition of ancient needlework.
Xuanyuan Jin no longer ordered people to make ready-made clothes, but every time the season changed, he would send the materials he selected to Tang Bao.
"How do you get Yunjin?" Bai Shuxiang asked without hesitation.
She had just arrived at the Bai Mansion today, so naturally she knew very little about Tang Bao's affairs.
However, she had just witnessed how Xuanyuan Jin protected Tang Bao, so she remembered this as soon as she asked.
"It was given to you by the Third Prince, right?" Bai Shuxiang asked again.
Tang Bao nodded like a little white rabbit, looking like someone who was easy to bully.
"It's true." Bai Shuxiang's sense of superiority returned.
It’s just a piece of clothing given by the Third Prince, it’s no big deal.
Although--
Bai Shuxiang's eyes stared at Tang Bao's clothes again.
If I were to wear this material... it would be as red as fire and as graceful as floating clouds. It would definitely attract my husband's attention and make that vixen at home mad...
Bai Shuxiang felt a sense of crisis when she thought of the "fox spirit".
At the same time, I became anxious again.
If I use the anti-aging cream, I will definitely be able to snatch my husband away from the "vixen"!
The name "fox spirit" was a nickname given by Bai Shuxiang to the concubine of the Yongning Marquis' son.
"You are blessed that the Third Prince treats you well, but you can't ask the Third Prince for money." Bai Shuxiang looked at Tang Bao and said proudly, "Sell me some of your health-preserving pills and anti-aging cream. I'll give you ten taels, no, thirty taels per bottle. How about that?"
Although thirty taels was only the price for one of her clothes, for a little girl from the countryside, selling ten or twenty bottles would earn her several hundred taels of silver.
I'm afraid her parents and family have never seen so much silver!
Tang Bao looked at Bai Shuxiang as if she were an idiot and said, "Do you think the health-preserving pills that the Emperor and the Empress Dowager often take are only worth the pittance of thirty taels of silver?"
Bai Shuxiang: “…”
His expression froze.
