Chapter 364 Merchant Means
Chapter 364 Merchant Methods
The matter was left to Chen Yihan, and the three of us put it behind for the time being. It was getting late, so the three of us found a small restaurant for dinner.
I looked at the time and called Qian Lan.
Qian Lan was still late to answer the phone, but she spoke as enthusiastically as ever.
"Kobayashi, why did you call here at this time? Is there anything wrong with the demolition side? You just want us to fill in something and submit the materials."
I replied, "Aunt Qian, it's not about demolition. I just want to ask, how was the soul yesterday? Is there any progress?"
Qian Lan paused for a few seconds before hesitating and said: "The progress has not been seen yet. The master also said that this matter did not have a result so quickly. He specialized in this and helped many people call the soul. My mother's situation is a bit complicated..."
"Oh, that's it." I was a little confused.
In addition to the divisions of monks, Taoists, and witches, this supernatural expert also has such a small branch that is specifically responsible for calling the soul?
Qian Lan said: "What's the matter? Auntie will definitely tell you. Thank you for your concern."
"Where, I'm disturbing you."
"It's okay, it's okay. Oh, you're not much younger than you, it's great. Have you eaten?"
"Just eaten."
"Oh. Are you still busy in the afternoon?"
"Yeah, I'm going to go to two."
"Then I won't disturb you anymore. You guys work hard."
"Well..." As soon as I finished speaking, the phone hung up there.
"What's wrong?" asked the fat man.
"I always feel that something is strange." I said with some confusion.
I didn't have much contact with Qian Lan. My only impression of her is that she is an enthusiastic aunt. If you want to add a label, she is a filial daughter. Qian Lan doesn't seem to want to talk about the soul, but I think it might not go well.
The thin man said, "Can it be that the way it is wrong?"
I was stunned, "What?"
"It's called the soul, generally speaking, it's just a few shouts. It's very particular. Isn't it just to consider the right time, place, and people, calculate the time and place, and choose a person called the soul. What's there to hide? Isn't this the same as someone doing business and offering the God of Wealth in the office? If it's a normal offering to the God of Wealth, it's open and open, but what if it's used something like witchcraft?" The thin man touched his chin, "Brother Qi, you told us that Qingye people will also use that kind of improper means. People like them will do it, right?"
I frowned.
The fat man asked, "Can you still get a blood sacrifice? Just like in the fairy tale film, killing ten thousand people to create a big formation to resurrect people?"
"If we have this ability, we should be covered in dark clouds and lightning on our heads now." The thin man smiled.
"Are we going to see it?" I interrupted the two of them.
Yesterday, Qian Lan didn't say let us go and see it. In other words, hinted, and explicitly, they all said that it was not convenient for the family to receive people recently, and they also promised that the person invited was very reliable. I felt relieved at that time. It would be better to ask Qian Lan to solve it himself. But today I called and asked, but this result made me uneasy.
"When I go, will it have any impact? Didn't it mean that it was very particular?" The fat man disagreed.
I felt it made sense when I heard it. This kind of scene of killing people after rushing around is also very common in films and TV series. I am a little mentally prepared for being a pig teammate, but I am still doubtful about being a pig teammate.
"I can't go now. It's almost time to leave." said the thin man.
The appointment with another property owner was almost the same time, and the three of us set out and started a long and tedious work again.
Looking at the old and slow-moving property owner, I occasionally think that if everyone wants to make money, our job will be much easier. But the reality is that there is only one who makes money, and we have to explain some policies for demolition to the elderly loudly and slowly, only two companies a day, which is also a dry mouth.
After returning to the car, the thin man drank several sips of water and asked, "How many households are there to run?"
"There are more than a dozen households. It's pretty good." I drew a check on the list of names and methods, indicating that I had completed another item.
"Do you want to go to Qianlan's community? Just take a look at the entrance of the community." said the fat man.
"Yeah." I nodded.
The thin man twisted the cap, put down the water bottle, folded his hands together, and prayed rumblingly: "Don't see anything bad."
His pretentious behavior, both the fat man and I ignored it.
"Brother Qi, can I leave early the day after tomorrow?" the fat man asked while driving.
"What?" I asked subconsciously.
"The day after tomorrow, the 100th anniversary of the festival?" The thin man reacted very quickly and slapped the fat man on the shoulder, "Okay, you guy, have you deal with Xue Jingyue?"
"Hehe." The fat man smirked.
I was a little confused, "What is the Centennial Festival? The ** Festival is not the day after tomorrow, right?"
"Brother Qi, don't you know? It's something that an unscrupulous merchant started to sautify the past year!" The thin man was very excited. "I made up a story about some ancient celebrities getting married on this day and died on this day. They got married for exactly one hundred years. It's so romantic! Then he got married that day, and his store was in activities. It's a romance! Last year, I found a random restaurant to have dinner at night, and I found that the price had doubled after paying the bill!"
The thin man obviously has a deep resentment about this.
I heard it a little familiar, "I seem to have heard of it..."
The thin man kept chattering, "Brother Qi, haven't you read the news in the past two years? Half of the media were bought and hyped, and the other half were criticizing it. This is a marketing strategy, price kidnapping, a monopoly, but it's useless. In the first year of the previous year, everyone was gossiping news, and last year someone applied for unscrupulous merchants, so everyone celebrated happily this year."
The thin man said, pointing out the window.
Only then did I realize that the stores along the way had been decorated with new decorations. I thought it was winter and I had changed the windows and scenery, but I didn’t expect it to be a century-old festival. This marketing was done very well.
"I remember, the leader of Longfei Group, right?" I gradually recalled the lively media wars in the past two years. "Longfei Mall has all started promotional activities. At the beginning was to celebrate their boss's wedding?"
"President Long Fei got married that day." said the thin man. He remembered this clearly.
This kind of thing is actually not the first time in the world. Many festivals, concepts, and common sense that are familiar to people now are all things that merchants seek profit and instill in consumers through marketing methods. They spend huge costs, and once and for all, they will make a profit of hundreds or thousands of times. If consumers are victims, it will not be possible.
"Have you decided to go for a date?" I asked the fat man with a smile.
"Well, I bought the movie tickets and ordered dinner. I wanted to leave early and go to the flower shop to get flowers." The fat man smiled silly.
"Okay. Then you can leave early the day after tomorrow." I nodded.
"Volume." The thin man complained.
"There is nothing to do with vulgarity. Don't everyone do this?" The fat man's face shook, "The most important thing is that it's so expensive. Movie tickets have tripled, hotels have five times, and roses have more than ten times."
"You rich second generation pretend to be poor at all." The thin man didn't take this opportunity.
"The rich second generation can't stand the price increase like this. It's the happiest for merchants." said the fat man.
"You can brainwash Xue Jingyue. What's the fun of such activities that are created by the family?" The thin man strongly resisted this. It seemed that the meal he was cheated of was very expensive.
"I've just been in love, so you asked me to do such a dying thing?" The fat man glanced at the thin man, "What's your concern?"
The thin man smiled and pretended to be deep, "I am teaching you experience. When I pursue it, I should show off my best performance when I first started dating and please the girls, which is not reliable. Teach the lessons of blood and tears! Look at me, when I started, and then I visited the media endlessly."
Fatty and I both laughed.
"You don't have to buy gifts, and you don't have to worry about how to arrange a date. Isn't that good?" I teased.
"hehe."
"How is Xue Jingyue? Have you encountered any unlucky things recently?" I changed the topic.
