Chapter 799: Purchasing Canned Knowledge (3)
Chapter 799: Purchasing Canned Knowledge (3)
Finally, Iya stopped selecting canned knowledge, slowly raised his head, moved his gaze away from the dazzling shelves, looked gently at Ying and Paimon, shook his head slightly, with a hint of imperceptible depth in his expression.
Paimon immediately understood and said crisply, "Okay, let's buy these this time!"
Dolly's eyes suddenly lit up, and she almost jumped up with excitement, her tone full of surprise and admiration:
"Oh my, oh my~ Not only are these three guests discerning and knowledgeable, but they're also generous and magnanimous. They're truly soulmates you only meet once in ten years... no, no, a century!"
In her mind, such a client is simply the perfect existence she dreams of.
Knowing the goods means there will be endless trading opportunities in the future; having money means that every order can bring considerable profits.
Customers like this who have both good taste and are not bad at Mora are simply walking gold mines for long-term cooperation and a stable and sustainable source of income.
Ying and Paimon smiled at each other and fell silent in tacit understanding, but a glimmer of cunning flashed in their eyes.
Where is the "sharp vision"?
It was clearly Iyana's incredible luck that was at work, allowing him to always accurately identify the optimal solution among thousands of choices.
[Is there a next time? 】
[I couldn't understand Dolly's emotional fluctuations before, but at this moment, I could truly feel her genuine joy.]
[The market value of a high-quality canned knowledge piece is approximately two million Mora... We've truly spent a fortune on this trip.]
[Heh, what a joke! In the game, Mora is always short of money, but in the plot, we compete to see who's richer—with the backing of two towering gold mountains, Bai Ge and Zhongli, we're really not afraid of anyone.]
[Don't forget, the acting manager's salary for Fengdeng Tower alone is a full one million Mora. Think about it, think about the value of this.]
[Honestly, even if I can't pay the bill someday, I can just send a copy to Brother Bai... For Yiya's sake, can he really refuse to accept it?]
After seeing off the three "heavyweight" customers, Dolly's gaze fell on the row of canned knowledge that Yiya finally gave up. Her eyes flashed slightly, and a shrewd arc quietly rose at the corner of her mouth. A clever plan instantly emerged in her mind.
Ordinary sales methods don't work on them, so why not... come up with an open and aboveboard strategy?
Thinking of this, she immediately put on an expression of great surprise, and her voice was so sweet that it seemed as if honey could drip out: "Three distinguished guests, wait a minute! I have great news for you——"
"Now, if you add another 100,000 Mora, you can choose any can of knowledge worth 1 million Mora!"
"Limited time offer, rare opportunity!"
The greedy elf Paimon's eyes lit up instantly, like a lit lantern, and blurted out: "Really?!"
She turned to look at Ying and added quickly, "Did you hear that? Just spend another hundred thousand and you can get a piece of knowledge of your choice worth a million! That's a steal!"
(Player perspective dialogue options:)
(1. Paimon, calm down.)
(2. Don’t fall into the trap set by merchants.)
"Paimeng, calm down," Ying sighed helplessly, her tone filled with a hint of pampering and sobriety, "Don't fall easily into the consumer traps carefully designed by merchants."
This child is so naive that it makes people feel sad.
"This... this is a trap..." Iya also echoed weakly. Although his voice was small, it revealed a hint of rationality.
Paimon was still unwilling to give up, pouting, his eyes longingly scanning the row of glittering knowledge jars: "But...the ones we just bought cost at least 500,000.
"Now, if I only add a little more, I can get a million-level model of my choice. Isn't this a sure win?"
【Classic marketing routine, textbook level.】
[A typical overt scheme—knowing it's a scam, yet the high cost-performance ratio makes it irresistible. Whether it will be useful in the future is another matter.]
[Dolly Big Sale! The lowest discount ever!]
[It is in stark contrast to Li Ben's work.]
[Paimon - a floating spirit with a simple mind and an honest wallet.]
Welcome to the special episode of "Deer Talks Scams." Today's topic: How to legally make money with sincerity.
[Little Deer's Friendly Reminder: Dear viewers, do ghost beetles fall from the sky? Do Mora fall from the sky? If the answer is no—then do you still dare to believe this "super value offer" right in front of you?]
"Canned knowledge is said to allow people to master a skill instantly. Haven't you experienced its magic yourself?"
"Aren't you at all tempted by this kind of black technology that has immediate and amazing effects? Don't you want to use it to master a brand new skill?" Paimon's eyes flashed with a fiery light, and his tone was full of excitement of being eager to try. It was obvious that he had been completely captured by Dolly's extremely tempting "super value offer".
She had long forgotten Caesar's earnest warnings - those advices about the risks and costs behind canned knowledge seemed to be completely overshadowed by Mora's brilliance.
Ying and Yiya exchanged a look of helplessness and worry. However, facing Paimon's determination, they were powerless to dissuade her. They could only watch as she generously shelled out 100,000 Mora to purchase the knowledge package, which was said to be "lifelong and priceless."
Dolly's lips curled up slightly, her smile was gentle but hidden with shrewdness. She displayed the dazzling array of canned knowledge worth millions of Mora one by one, like the most experienced merchant in the market, skillfully displaying her treasures and letting customers choose.
Facing Paimon's expectant and eager gaze, Yiya sighed softly, stretched out her delicate little hand, and slowly reached for the row of knowledge containers that shimmered faintly under the light. She pulled out a can at random, and with a flick of her wrist, the small metal tube landed precisely in Ying's palm, as if drawn by fate.
Ying caught it steadily, her fingertips brushing across the cool body of the jar, her eyes falling on a line of almost imperceptible tiny inscriptions at the bottom - "Introduction to Bow and Arrow Combat Skills - Part 1".
She frowned slightly, a trace of confusion flashed across her eyes, and looked at Yiya in confusion: She was clearly a wandering swordsman who used a one-handed sword as a weapon, why would the other party choose such a completely mismatched skill to instill in her?
Yiya blinked, her clear pupils reflected a soft light, and she responded silently with her eyes: I just picked it up casually. If you think it is not suitable, you can change it.
Ying nodded, then looked intently at the row of knowledge tanks in front of her that were labeled "worth a million."
I saw labels of various colors arranged in order, which caught my eye: "Introduction to Xumi Traditional Brewing", "Essence of Spice Planting Technology", "Summary and Interpretation of Ancient Runes", "One-Handed Sword Combat Techniques 8"...
Each one is practical and profound, containing a vast system of knowledge, but without exception, they deviate from what they need on their wandering journey.
After all, Ying had never intended to settle down in one place for a long time. Even if she was proficient in brewing and planting, it would be difficult for her to put their knowledge to use. As for the study of ancient runes... they were not archaeologists. If they really had any questions, they could just ask Zhongli or Guizhong, who were living witnesses of history. Why should they waste Mora in exchange for fragments of memory?
Only "One-Handed Sword Combat Techniques·VIII" still has some value - after all, it is her main weapon, and perhaps it can make up for some untouched technical blind spots and improve her swordsmanship.
However, thinking of Yiya's almost mystical talent of "good luck", which always guides her to make the best choice, Ying couldn't help but feel doubts in her heart: If this is the best option guided by fate, then why isn't it more in line with the skills needed at the moment?
Instantly, a forgotten memory flashed back like lightning—deep within the Order House, Caesar had personally demonstrated the use of canned knowledge. At that moment, she felt as if countless sharp sword intentions pierced her mind, stirring a turbulent wave within her consciousness. In an instant, she mastered a vast array of one-handed sword techniques, her moves flowing as smoothly as her own fingers.
Could it be that... by then Caesar had already instilled the entire set of "One-Handed Sword Combat Techniques" from one to eight into the depths of her consciousness, turning it into an instinct hidden in her soul?
Only in this way can we explain the scene before our eyes: why "Beginners in Archery" has become the best option under the guidance of Iya's strong luck—
Because of the truly useful advanced knowledge on one-handed swords in this can of knowledge, she had already mastered it without realizing it and had it deeply embedded in her mind.
"As expected of Caesar," Ying's lips curled up slightly, a relieved smile quietly appearing on her face as she murmured softly, "He is truly generous, offering such valuable knowledge as a reward."
She no longer hesitated, her eyes as firm as stars, and her tone calm and powerful, she announced: "This is what we want."
Dolly nodded with a smile, her eyes gleaming with cunning and enthusiasm. "Okay, okay, I'll have a new batch of goods arriving in the next two days. It's a dazzling array of goods, with everything you need. You three must come back to patronize us!"
"And it's not just canned knowledge," she lowered her voice, a touch of mystery and confidence. "As long as you ask, no matter how bizarre the gadgets are, or what rare and obscure items from small shops they are, I, Dolly, will do my best to find a way to get them for you!"
Ying and her group took the packaged cans of knowledge, tied with a pale blue ribbon that shimmered in the setting sun. They said goodbye to Dolly's stall and merged into the bustling crowd.
Two days later, Ying and her group arrived at the corner of the market as scheduled. Dolly's stall was busier than ever, with colorful flags flying and a wide variety of goods on display.
"Hey, here, here!"
Dolly recognized them immediately and immediately leaned forward, waving her hands high in the air, her smile as bright as a blooming sunflower:
"My three dear customers, I'm so happy to see you! Please come over here. Do you need my help with the product you're looking for?"
She patted her chest and said with a bold and confident tone, "Whether it's mysterious canned knowledge or a rare item that's hard to find in the world, as long as you open your mouth and the mora sounds, I, Dolly, will make sure it appears before you!"
Dolly spoke with great joy, as if she had already seen the joyful scene of the deal being concluded, welcoming these three big customers who brought good luck.
