Chapter 29 Price war?

"Boy, you are looking for death!" Howard's eyes turned red. He raised his hand and swept the spear across.

Chris quickly held the green sword in front of him, fighting spirit spurting out.

With a crisp sound of "clang", the two weapons touched together, sparks flew out, and the storm of fighting spirit spread, forcing the people around them to take more than ten steps back.

Just as Howard was preparing for the second wave of attacks, he felt an extremely powerful storm appear under him, and before he could react, he was blown away.

"Bang!" Howard flew dozens of meters away and fell heavily to the ground, where he was chewed up in the mud.

"Who?" He quickly got up from the ground and looked around.

Howard was certain that the attack just now was definitely not from Chris, and it was not the power of a first-order demon warrior at all.

Tina walked out of the shop, her red lips lightly opened: "Get out!"

A short word, but it seemed to have unparalleled power, making Howard feel like he was at the center of the storm.

And when his eyes fell on Tina and saw the four-star magic badge she was wearing, his scalp went numb.

Fourth level magician!

That Chris, how did he hire a fourth-level magician?

In just a short period of time, Howard received too many shocks. Looking at Tina's angry look, he rolled away and ran away.

"Huh!" Tina flicked her sleeves and walked back into the shop.

After a brief silence, customers lined up again.

Chris put the green sword and wand back into the space ring and continued selling ice cream.

If he wasn't worried that the fight would affect these innocent customers, he would really like to have a fight with the opponent to test his current strength.

······

After Howard completed his tour of the city, he came to his own red date cake shop.

This shop is on the same street as the ice cream shop, but one is at the east end and the other is at the west.

"Stephen, how many red date cakes did we sell today?" Howard asked the store manager.

Stephen was a forty-year-old middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair. He bowed and said, "Sir, sell three."

Hearing this, Howard slapped the steward on the head and said angrily: "Others sold dozens of ice cream cakes for two silver coins, but you only sold three of your red date cakes for twenty copper coins?

Why should I feed you?"

Stephen looked aggrieved. Even before the appearance of snowflake cake, only seven or eight red date cakes were sold now.

Their snowflake cake is delicious, can our red date cake compare with theirs?

However, these were just Stephen's inner thoughts. He never dared to speak out and could only bear Howard's anger silently.

"If you can't sell it, why don't you know how to lower the price?" Howard looked like he hated iron and steel. "If you lower the price of red date cake to ten copper coins, I won't believe it. The recipe I have been making for decades is better than

But that’s just ice cream.”

"Yes, sir." Stephen bowed again. As a manager, he was not qualified to reduce the price of red date cakes.

But now, Lord Howard has spoken.

"By the way, sir, I asked them to buy a piece of ice cream cake. Do you want to try it?"

"I don't want to taste that thing." Howard said angrily, then frowned, "Forget it, bring it over and give it to me to try."

Stephen clapped his hands, and a young man carefully brought a bowl of ice cream to Howard.

The pure white pastry that looks like snowflakes is really lovable.

Howard looked impatient and took a mouthful with a spoon and ate it into his mouth. His eyes suddenly lit up, followed by a second and third bite.

In a short time, he ate all the ice cream in front of him.

When Howard reacted, he couldn't help but blush.

······

Reputation from Howard 1

Chris looked at the golden font floating in front of his eyes, his mind filled with questions.

Do you think you have masochistic tendencies?

If you suffer a lot from me, will you gain reputation from me?

It seems that I should stay away from this pervert in the future.

Chris continued to sell ice cream, and he even sent someone to make a plaque with the words "Hope Town" and "Ice Cream" written on it.

The reason why he added "Hope Town" to the logo was mainly because Chris wanted to make his territory famous, so that free people could be attracted to come and become territorial citizens.

Then, reputation points can be generated.

At this time, Knight Hilo hurried over and said: "Sir, it's not good, Howard has reduced the price of red date cake by half, and now it only sells for ten copper coins."

Chris looked at the long queue in front of him and said: "Whatever, let's sell ours."

My own customers, who have recognized the taste of snowflake cake, will naturally not buy red date cake just because Howard has lowered the price.

This is indeed the case. The customers in front of the snowflake cake stall have no intention of leaving.

······

"Pah!" Howard slapped the table and shouted angrily, "Stephen, didn't I ask you to lower the price? Why are there still no customers?"

"Sir, I have asked my employees to go out and spread the news about the price reduction, but..." Stephen's face was also very ugly.

Unexpectedly, the red date cake was already discounted in half, but it still failed to attract customers.

"I don't care, you have to think of a way to snatch customers away from me!" Howard punched the table hard with his fist, making a "bounce" sound.

Stephen smiled bitterly, "Even you like to eat that ice cream cake, what can I do?"

Howard frowned, thought hard for a long time, and said: "Reduced by half, five copper coins and a piece of red date cake."

"Sir, you must not do this. We will lose money if we sell it at this price." Stephen was shocked.

"Customers are the most important!" Howard said bitterly, "Losing money in a short period of time is for long-term interests. I don't believe it. I, a huge viscount family, can't compete with a little baron from the countryside."

"Yes, sir." Stephen could only say helplessly.

······

"Excuse me, the price of the Hughes family's red date cake has been greatly reduced. The original price was twenty copper coins, but now it only costs five copper coins!" A teenage boy shouted on the street, running past the ice cream shop.

The customers lined up in front of the snowflake cake stall just looked up and remained unmoved, showing no intention of leaving.

Chris sneered and thought to himself: "You want to use price reduction to hit the delicious food of the 21st century? Howard, you are a bit immature."
