Chapter 403: The Little Imperial Prince Is Very Clever

~8 min read 1,548 words

Qin Bi was startled: "I didn't ask you to eat them."

The Little Imperial Prince said: "No one is buying them."

"No one is buying them..." Qin Bi pondered and said: "We'll eat them ourselves, or use them to raise soldiers. The Heir Apparent gave me and Rong Yang soldiers."

The Little Imperial Prince was curious: "Twenty soldiers, or thirty soldiers?"

Qin Bi: "...... Forgot."

The Little Imperial Prince: "......"

"No one is buying the radish greens," the Little Imperial Prince continued to mutter. "It would be better to give them away. If you included the radish greens as a gift, my maternal grandfather would buy your spiritual vegetables. Otherwise, calculating the price one radish green at a time, plus the spiritual vegetables, the civil and military officials would laugh at my grandfather for being a fool. Who buys broken radish greens? People who don't know would think he's dim-witted, buying even vegetable leaves."

Qin Bi was speechless; the Little Imperial Prince had quite a lot to say.

However, this did make the Imperial family seem a bit more approachable. Qin Bi had always felt that the children of the Emperor were high and mighty. Even though the Great Yan Emperor treated the Rong Wang Fu like brothers, Qin Bi couldn't trust the Emperor.

"I have a use for them," Qin Bi said.

"What use?" the Little Imperial Prince said. "People aren't even buying the broken radish greens."

The child kept saying "broken radish greens" over and over. Qin Bi didn't like hearing it. What kind of way was that to talk? Weren't the children of the Imperial family supposed to be eloquent and refreshing like a spring breeze?

Saying "broken radish greens" once was enough. If he said it too much, who would want to listen? These were spiritual vegetables grown by Qin Bi! Ever since her lifespan was damaged, Qin Bi had become very indifferent and didn't like to argue with people, but hearing "broken radish greens" too many times, Qin Bi didn't like it either.

Qin Bi ignored the Little Imperial Prince, so the Little Imperial Prince went to find Rong Yang.

Rong Yang was not far away, waiting for the cabbage heart. The Little Imperial Prince said to Qin Shizi, who was walking over: "Your family's daughter is a bit too indulgent with the child. Spiritual vegetables are so rare, yet she actually picks the cabbage heart to eat."

Qin Yan glanced at the selling circle. Rong Yang was holding two cabbage hearts; they weren't big. The child was holding the spiritual vegetables, and some crisp leaves had broken off and fallen to the ground shortly after.

"It's nothing for a child to eat something refined," Qin Yan said. "If it weren't for the fact that the Rong Wang Fu's foundation has been depleted these past two years, perhaps Rong Yang and Rong Chi would have been eating rare spiritual vegetables since they were small."

The Little Imperial Prince sighed: "Sigh."

Qin Yan: "......"

Why did it feel like the Little Imperial Prince had endless worries? Qin Yan looked down. The Little Imperial Prince was small in stature because he couldn't eat anything good, but his eyes were bright and spirited.

Qin Yan and the Little Imperial Prince mentioned Qin Bi's damaged lifespan and the depletion of the Rong Wang Fu's foundation, and both stopped talking. It was very complicated. If He Shizi hadn't married a secondary wife at the same time he got engaged, there wouldn't have been so many issues.

But whether it was Qin Yan or the Little Imperial Prince, both felt that this was actually quite good. The Great Yan's 20 plus 20 fortune and luck values were at least flickering from time to time. It was probably because Rong Yang and Rong Chi were small that it wasn't obvious, but everyone knew that this 40 existed.

The Little Imperial Prince walked up to Rong Yang and nagged: "Rong Yang, your mother is selling broken radish greens, and people aren't buying them."

Rong Yang was confused, so Rong Shizi went to ask Qin Bi.

The Little Imperial Prince followed behind: "The Xue Shizi's wife knows how to open a shop and do business, but your Rong Shizi's wife doesn't understand these things. Tell her, no one is buying the broken radish greens."

Rong Shizi stopped and turned to ask the Little Imperial Prince: "Can Qin He compare to my Shizifei?"

The Little Imperial Prince also stopped and was very clever: "No, she can't compare to your Shizifei."

Rong Shizi continued walking, and the Little Imperial Prince kept muttering: "Different trades are like mountains apart; when it comes to opening a shop and doing business, it has to be the Xue Shizi's wife." Worried that Rong Shizi wouldn't like to hear it, and since the Little Imperial Prince had a good relationship with Rong Yang, he said: "The Rong Shizi's wife is dignified and grand; merchants can't compare."

Qin He was a merchant, of low status, but Qin Bi had a noble status. The Little Imperial Prince was very clever.

Rong Shizi came to Qin Bi, and Qin Bi turned to look at the man.

Rong Shizi said: "No one is buying the vegetable leaves."

"If no one buys them, we'll keep them." Qin Bi saw Rong Shizi's confusion and, thinking that there was a transmigrator named Qin He in this world and that Rong Shizi probably knew she was a transmigrator, she explained: "I want to raise spiritual chickens. If no one buys the vegetable leaves, I'll feed them to the chickens."

The Little Imperial Prince: "......"

Picking up vegetable leaves was so difficult, yet she had a use for them.

Although the spiritual vegetables sold by the Immortal Sects were a bit expensive, they came with vegetable leaves. But the Rong Wang Fu was different; they cut off the vegetable leaves. If they were raising spiritual chickens, the vegetable leaves wouldn't be wasted.

Rong Shizi knew what Qin Bi was planning, so he didn't care. Qin Bi had suffered a damaged lifespan, and Rong Juan didn't mind indulging Qin Bi in everything, not letting her have the slightest worry. Rong Shizi planned to spend his whole life with Qin Bi.

The Little Imperial Prince ran to find the Minister of War: "They want to use the broken radish greens to raise spiritual chickens."

"Raise spiritual chickens?" The Minister of War's mouth twitched. Vegetable leaves could be eaten too.

They were actually feeding them to spiritual chickens??????

Su Er Young Master on the side: "What??????!!"

The Little Imperial Prince said it again: "Feeding them to spiritual chickens."

Well, Su Shizi and his brothers discussed it and bought two big cabbages. They originally wanted to buy green onions, tomatoes, and the like, but once they asked the price, they went silent.

After pooling their money, they bought a dozen tomatoes.

The Minister of War calculated that it was cheaper than the Immortal Sects, so he simply bought six big cabbages. Once he asked and found out the green peppers weren't spicy, he bought a few too. Qin Bi saw this and knew that the cultivation families were wealthy.

Unlike the Qin Yan Marquis Manor, which had just become a cultivation family and had no cultivation foundation.

Harvesting the spiritual vegetables lasted until noon. Rong Shizi said to Qin Bi: "I'm going back for a trip to take Rong Chi to the Immortal Sect to get you some small spiritual chicken seedlings. Lin Yao, Qin Yan, and Qin Tang are at the fief; let them handle the harvesting of the spiritual vegetables."

Qin Bi nodded, and Rong Shizi looked for Rong Yang: "Rong Yang, are you going to the Immortal Sect?"

Rong Yang was excited by the harvest; the child was very happy and nodded: "Going."

The Little Imperial Prince was about to follow, but Rong Shizi said: "You stay with the Shizifei."

"Alright," the Little Imperial Prince agreed.

Thinking of something, the Little Imperial Prince asked: "Is there food?"

Rong Shizi ignored him, opened the teleportation array, and left with Rong Yang.

Qin Lang took some flour cakes from a basket and came back to share them with Qin Bi and the Little Imperial Prince. Lin Yao and the others didn't have time to eat, but Qin Lang and the Little Imperial Prince had time. Qin Bi went to the chili pepper field, looked around, and picked a few chili peppers.

There were also cucumbers, which she cut into shreds and mixed with the chili peppers, salt, and some seasoning.

She cut the flour cakes open and put the cold cucumber and chili pepper salad inside.

The Little Imperial Prince held a flour cake: "Can this be delicious?"

He took a bite and was amazed. The Little Imperial Prince: "So delicious."

Qin Lang was spicy: "Hiss, hiss, so spicy."

The people of the Qin Yan Marquis Manor couldn't eat spicy food, but it was delicious. Qin Lang was in pain from the spice but still ate happily. Qin Bi took a bite of the cake and was spicy enough to doubt her life, breaking into a sweat.

When Qin Lang heard that Qin Bi was sweating, he stopped eating and put the hood of her cape on her. ===== CHAPTER 404 =====
