The prince is more stable

Chapter 39: The Heir of a Famous General
If someone hands you a purse, you must reach out and take it.

This is the most basic respect for money.

It doesn't matter who hands over the money, whether it's a man or a woman.

Money is money. Whether it is a man or a woman, the money handed over is sparkling. Who can refuse a sparkling little cutie?

Zhao Xiaoqian calmly put Di Ying's purse into his arms and looked past her: "Next!"

Di Ying stood there with a shocked expression. At this moment, she finally realized that she had been fooled!

"You, you you..." Di Ying was furious.

"Please move aside and don't block my way to wealth, thank you." Zhao Xiaoqian said politely.

Di Ying turned her head and looked at the strange looks of the playboys behind her. Her pretty face turned red and she stomped her feet in anger.

Although he no longer stood in front of Zhao Xiaoqian, he refused to leave. He stood silently behind him and glared at him angrily.

Zhao Xiaoqian didn't care, he was still in a good mood.

I made a lot of money today, and most of the wishes I made when I first came here will come true.

Sure enough, making quick money can really make people lose their way. Now Zhao Xiaoqian no longer cares about the sales of snow salt.

It would be great to just rob the money directly, it’s fast and fun.

Not long after, the playboys finally paid the money and said goodbye one by one honestly.

Of course, Zhao Xiaoqian also said that he would let bygones be bygones. You bullied and laughed at me in the past, and I took your money, so we are even now.

The dandies left, and the money bags on the table were piled up like a mountain.

The next task is to pour out the money in the purse and sort it out, separating the copper coins into copper coins and the silver into silver.

Of course, there are also some cute little ones who are smart and have Jiaozi in their wallets.

This is the first currency in Chinese history.

Different from what is written in history books, although Jiaozi had appeared in the Song Dynasty, its credibility was not high and its face value was not high, basically ranging from 500 Wen to one or two Guan.

Moreover, Jiaozi was mostly circulated among merchants in Shu. Outside Shu, almost no one recognized Jiaozi.

Now Zhao Xiaoqian had a few Jiaozi notes between his fingers, and he didn't know how some clever trick had gotten in. After thinking about it, he decided to put them away.

What if I go traveling to Sichuan?

Besides, if it is not used, it can be left as an antique to future generations. After a thousand years, toilet paper can become a cultural relic, let alone Jiaozi, which has such archaeological value.

I gained a lot and I’m in a very good mood.

After sorting the copper coins and silver, I roughly calculated that today's income was about four or five hundred strings of cash.

The money is not much, but it is income that he has earned without any effort. Thinking of this, the corners of Zhao Xiaoqian's mouth suddenly became harder than AK.

His arms were bulging, and Zhao Xiaoqian suddenly remembered that there were several purses in his arms that had not been sorted out. Just as he took them out, a slender hand stretched out from behind his shoulder like lightning and grabbed the red embroidered purse.

When it comes to money, Zhao Xiaoqian has always been quick-eyed and quick-handed, especially when it comes to property that already belongs to him. Anyone who dares to lay their hands on it will be caught.

As expected, the slender hand failed to grab the purse. Zhao Xiaoqian's hand was faster than lightning and grabbed her wrist in a flash.

Turning their heads, the two looked at each other.

Di Ying's angry look suddenly changed, becoming aggrieved and weak.

"That's my money..." Di Ying said with a pout.

"I know, but you just used it to buy peace, did you forget?" Zhao Xiaoqian reminded patiently.

Di Ying paused, then blurted out, "Where's Ping'an?" Zhao Xiaoqian looked at her in shock. "Are you crazy? 'Ping'an' is invisible and intangible, but it definitely belongs to you and accompanies you. Go home and experience it for yourself."

Di Ying's pupils trembled. How could he have the nerve to say such a shameless reason so confidently?
At this moment, Di Ying really felt wronged.

Who told her to be so curious and like to join in the fun?

Seeing a group of family acquaintances queuing up, she followed them without thinking, and then... her money was inexplicably robbed.

Women like shopping, especially in crowded stores, and they prefer to sneak in and take a look.

Today, Di Ying suffered a great loss and was harmed by her nature.

Who would have thought that a group of lawless dandies who were rampant in Bian Jing would be so honest and obedient today in paying protection fees... and even lined up in an orderly manner to pay the money.

Did Zhao Xiaoqian have any evidence against them?
"I don't want Ping An anymore. Give me back my money." Di Ying said dissatisfiedly.

Zhao Xiaoqian picked up the silver on the table and said calmly, "The refund window is in Afghanistan..."

The money was kept, the silver was carried by Zhao Xiaoqian, and the copper coins were sent to the Prince of Chu's Palace by Cai You on the request of Zhao Xiaoqian.

Then Zhao Xiaoqian got up and left.

After leaving the teahouse and walking on the Imperial Street of Bianjing, Zhao Xiaoqian was in a particularly happy mood, and he walked with a confident and high-spirited momentum.

Sure enough, money is the courage of heroes.

Cai You followed Zhao Xiaoqian, still very attentive, and tested him cautiously as he walked.

His father Cai Jing had just been transferred back to Beijing to serve as the Minister of Revenue. They were all members of the New Party. Cai You tentatively asked whether the King of Chu and his son would be willing to attend the banquet held by the Cai family to entertain guests.

In fact, there was no need to test it. Zhao Xiaoqian had always ignored the social interactions with such court figures, so he told Cai You that he was not interested in this matter, and his father, the King of Chu, was not interested either.

Don't ask, the answer is that clan members are not allowed to make friends with outsiders.

Last time, Zhao Hao was caught with this crime by the censor and was disgraced. How could he possibly make the same mistake again?

As he walked, Zhao Xiaoqian suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He turned around suddenly and found that Di Ying was still following him slowly, glaring at his back angrily.

When Zhao Xiaoqian turned around, Di Ying instantly put on a pitiful expression. She was so weak that she would fall down if the wind blew. Her autumn-water eyes were filled with grievances of being bullied. She bit her lower lip with her pearly teeth, making her look even more pitiful.

Zhao Xiaoqian sighed and said, "Stop pretending. Aren't you tired?"

This woman...why does she feel a bit tea-like?
Cai You, who was standing nearby, also noticed Di Ying behind him. After a moment's hesitation, he whispered, "Prince, why don't you return the Di family girl's money to her?"

"What?"

Cai You smiled awkwardly: "Today, the Di family girl is innocent. Besides... she is the granddaughter of the late General Di Qing. Considering General Di's outstanding military achievements..."

Zhao Xiaoqian was surprised, and then he suddenly remembered that the woman's surname was Di, and the most famous general in the Northern Song Dynasty was Di Qing.

It turns out that she is Di Qing’s granddaughter!

Zhao Xiaoqian has always admired famous generals, especially those who have made great contributions to the country. No matter which dynasty, they are worthy of admiration.

In this case, Di Ying's money could not be accepted, as it would be suspected of bullying a meritorious official.

Zhao Xiaoqian stopped, turned around and walked in front of Di Ying.

Di Ying still looked weak and aggrieved, standing tall and silent.

Zhao Xiaoqian took out her red embroidered coin purse from his arms and handed it to her: "Here I return it to you. It was a misunderstanding just now. You should have said that you were the descendant of General Di. Why didn't you say so earlier? Why didn't you say so earlier? You should have said so earlier..."

Di Ying was both surprised and confused after getting the purse back. She took it blankly, then looked at him blankly and muttered to herself.
