What is the idiom "I don't want a treasure chest"?
Buy bamboo slips and return pearls: from Han Feizi, the original intention is to buy jewelry leaving only beautiful boxes and no real high-value jewelry. It is often used to describe that it is not worthwhile to choose the wrong one without vision, and it is not worthwhile to lose the watermelon and pick up the sesame seeds. "Bamboo slips" means boxes.
