Chapter 40 The big flicker that comes when you open your mouth!
Chapter 40: A huge lie!
The four fungi in the large and small caravans were amazed, which was in sharp contrast to the previous carelessness. This contrast made Yao Yun very happy to see it.
Let you underestimate me, Xiguo. You have never seen this kind of snowflake-like well salt, and you are ignorant.
The guards of Xidu's palace were also full of pride. Although the caravans were friendly in their words, their contempt for Xidu's behavior could not be hidden from everyone's sharp eyes. Just now, the guards were secretly holding back their anger.
This will make you feel completely comfortable.
Of course, this situation only lasted for a while, and soon the fungi stopped praising the well salt.
They are in business, and even if they like it in their hearts, they won't say it out loud. They were just surprised before, but when they regain their senses, they return to normal.
According to the general process, merchants will find faults with the goods in order to lower the price.
Fungus 38: "King Xi, your white salt is indeed white, but it doesn't seem to have any effect. What effect does eating this salt have?"
Yao Yun shook his head.
"Hey, this is a pity. I thought I found some precious treasure, but it turned out to be just some clean salt. It doesn't seem to be anything special!"
"Yes, we have encountered good salt before, but the quality is just a little lower than this. Hey, it's not a rare thing."
The fungi were so arrogant that in just a few words, they suddenly fell from a highly praised treasure to a worthless existence.
The palace guards were very angry after hearing this. They felt that their fine well salt was a real treasure, and it was unreasonable for the other party to say that it was so disgusting.
Hu Yi: "What do you know? Our salt is the best salt in the world, unique in the world!"
The fungi shook their heads.
Yao Yun was unmoved. He didn't take the fungi's words of disparaging fine salt to heart at all.
"Leader 38, your caravans have traveled all over the country and seen countless rare things. To be fair, have you ever seen salt that is of higher quality than ours?"
The fungi looked at each other. Although the nature of businessmen makes them very cunning and lying is commonplace, they also have the side of doing business with integrity.
The fungus Sanba thought about it for a while and said: "This... is indeed not the case. Salt is useless even if it is white. It is for eating, not gold, jade and gems. It can be used for collection. It is not that beautiful and useful.
big!"
Yao Yun nodded and said with a smile: "Sanba, you are so knowledgeable. It is true. I can bear the pain and ask you to dip it in some salt and taste it."
Junren Sanba has had this idea for a long time. Before, without the owner's permission, he couldn't do it. Now after hearing Yao Yun's words, he immediately dipped his little hand into it and tasted it.
"Well, it's so salty. It tastes very authentic. There's no other taste. Hey, there's no bitterness at all. This white salt is indeed very pure." Junren Sanba told the truth, his eyes were very satisfied. It was obvious that he liked it very much.
Salty.
Yao Yun: "This is the beauty of pure salt. Ordinary coarse salt is actually full of impurities, which makes it unhealthy to eat. But it's not good for everyone if they don't eat salt. As a result, most people are taking chronic poisons.
The accumulation of such trace amounts of impurities in the body is very bad, and the lifespan of ordinary people is shortened as a result. The extra impurities in the body of Qi refiners need to be eliminated in time, which affects their practice..."
Yao Yun added some nonsense and made all the fungi stunned.
If it is said that King Xi is talking nonsense, and the people think that King Xi is right, eating too much coarse salt is indeed bad and has many disadvantages, but if they believe King Xi, they always feel that something is wrong.
The fungus Sanba thinks too much and is sweating.
"King Xi, that's not what you said. What you said makes sense to a certain extent, but you have exaggerated the effect of fine well salt. In any case, it is just ordinary salt, not a magical treasure."
"Leader 38, I think your business thinking is limited." Yao Yun showed a holy and kind smile like a preacher.
"What advice does King Xi have?" Sanba frowned. They travel all over the world to do business. When it comes to doing business, they are very proud. It is not their turn to have a lord from a small country town to tell them what to do.
Yao Yun shook his head: "I don't take it as advice, but the business experience I mentioned can really open up a new world for you."
"All ears."
"Hahaha, Sanba, do you think rare goods are more valuable?"
"Of course, this is the purpose of our caravans' business."
"Well, that's good. The iron-eating beasts, three-legged turtles, Zhu Yucao, etc. you showed are all rare things, but they are not enough. They are not unique. If you go to the Zhuxia Dynasty, these things will be considered rare.
It is not allowed to be an extremely rare item, but if it is my fine salt, it would still be a rarity even in the prosperous capitals of the various Xia emperors!"
Fungus Man Sanba frowned: "You are sophistry. No matter how rare salt is, its practicality is not high."
"Wrong, very wrong!"
"Hungry, why did King Xi mean this?"
"The most expensive things in the world are never practical things. Practical objects have a price, and the truly priceless ones are truly rare. Only if I have it and you don't have it can I sell it at a high price."
Think about it, what would it be like if you sold high-quality salt to the noble children of the imperial capital. The princes and princes of the imperial capital never lacked ordinary treasures. What they lacked was treasures that no one else had. And my high-quality salt
It’s just such an object.”
The fungus people were not fools, but shrewd businessmen. They immediately understood the meaning of Yao Yun's words, and their eyes suddenly lit up.
Yao Yun continued to lie: "I regard this kind of goods as luxury goods. Luxury goods do not value practicality. Think about it, a big noble in the imperial capital got this high-quality salt, and then held a banquet with snowflake white salt to entertain other nobles.
What happens next?”
The fungus Sanba said without hesitation: "Other nobles must be amazed!"
"That's right, what's next?"
"The next step is definitely envy. If others have it but you don't have it, then you will lose face."
"Then what?"
"Then, they who are so extravagant will follow the trend and ask around about the origin of snowflake salt, and then, hey hey hey hey..."
Come on!
Yao Yun didn't even say anything. Sanba, the fungus man, had already finished the next scene in his mind and let out a lewd chuckle.
"Then, we can sell high-quality table salt at a sky-high price! This is crazy. King Xi, you are so farsighted!"
For a time, the large and small caravans, who were always known for their business skills, looked at Yao Yun with extremely reverent eyes, as if they had found a life mentor, and they were extremely pious.
"The fungus people in the large and small caravans are so knowledgeable! They suddenly understood Gu Shenwu's business experience for many years. It's amazing. Now do you think Gu's fine well salt is a treasure?"
