Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 83 The Arcane Stargate of Strike

The next day, Payne stepped into the store.

"Hey, boss, who did you invite to decorate yesterday? It's all done so quickly!"

As soon as Payne walked in, he looked at the decoration of the store in amazement.

"It's all done by myself, you should familiarize yourself with the layout first." Ahao said proudly.

Payne gave him a thumbs up.Then he curiously opened every cabinet in the store to see what was stuffed inside.

"By the way, boss, you were doing renovations in the store yesterday, didn't you miss that good show?"

"What fun?" Ahao looked at Payne suspiciously.He was feeling here and there in the store.

"Hey boss, your news is really not well-informed.

"That's the one. A bunch of people went on strike under the Arcane Stargate to protest. The Arcane Stargate was out of service last night! The upper city was in a mess because of it."

"Strike? What's going on, tell me."

As soon as he heard about the strike, Ah Hao immediately thought of the parade yesterday.

At this time, Payne had almost turned over the cabinet, and walked to the long table in the middle of the store.He grabbed a bottle of perfume from the perfume spaced on the long table.

"Wow, boss, is this a perfume bottle? It's so exquisitely made, it looks like a fresh orange. I guess some customers will have the idea of ​​collecting it when they see the bottle."

"Yes, appearance is also an important factor in selling, and that is a blood orange, not an orange!

"Ahem, don't talk nonsense, talk about the strike." Ah Hao couldn't stand others teasing him.

Payne put down the perfume, leaned half against the wall, and said emotionally:

"It is said that the Austrian Stargate recently carried out overnight maintenance, which extended the working hours and caused a worker to die of exhaustion."

"Well, I probably know that."

Although he has changed from an arcanist to a worker, Ahao is sure it should be the same thing.

"So, the workers went on strike. If they don't go on strike, they can only be oppressed by those black-hearted capitalists."

Payne suddenly reacted, "Ah boss, I didn't mean what you said. Boss, you have a good conscience!"

Ahao waved his hand, indicating that he didn't care.

"But... if the Offa Stargate is out of service, the impact will be quite big. Will the Agadi government agree? I saw people marching yesterday, and the sheriff was behind the team. This strike is also followed by the sheriff?"

"How is that possible." Payne waved his hand, "Boss, the parade is a cover. The strike is the killer weapon. The parade attracts attention, and the strikers are easy to operate."

He continued: "Yesterday, when the sun was about to set, I just came out of the market. When I passed by the gate of the Austrian star, I saw a group of people pouring out from other places and smashed the Austrian star. The door to the departure hall is tightly packed.

"They sent out a lot of leaflets, preaching how bad the Alpha Stargate Association is.

"The staff there are also on strike. The airships in the sky are spinning around like headless chickens, and they can't fly no matter what.

"By the way, I also got a few leaflets, take a look."

Ah Hao took the flyer and looked at it. The biggest black letter on the top read:

[Alpha Stargate has recently shut down! 】

The smaller words below are some appeals and propositions:

[We don't need a city that never sleeps, what we need is rest! 】

【Stop overloading! 】

【Life is not for sale!Refuse to work during non-working hours! 】

It has to be said that the super bold font combined with the short and punchy copy makes this flyer convey a clear and strong emotion.

"Then what happened afterwards?" After flipping through the leaflet, Ahao asked curiously.

"I don't know what happened afterwards. There were many people whose flights were delayed, and they were all yelling. It was too noisy. I watched the show for a while and then left."

Payne spread his palms: "But before I went back, I saw a few people from the government talking to the strikers in a hurry.

And this morning, I also saw the light of the flying star light up again.There must be some kind of agreement. "

"Well, I did miss a good show." Ahao said with a little regret, he was quite concerned about this matter.

He always felt that the incident between Ms. Jasmine and her husband was not that simple.

If he followed the parade yesterday, he might still be able to catch up.

"Agadi hasn't been peaceful recently." Payne sighed.

"If it's too peaceful, we can't control it. Now it's better to pack up the shop and prepare to open for business."

Payne was taken aback, showing a flustered expression:

"What, opening today? Boss, I'm not ready yet!"

"What to prepare, wait for the customer to come, quote the price, and then collect the money, wouldn't it be enough?"

Ah Hao smiled lightly.

"Is it that simple?" Payne was full of doubts. "By the way, boss, I don't know how much the perfume in the store costs."

"A bottle of [-] Canadian dollars, all the perfumes in the store are priced at the same price."

“So expensive!!!”

Payne was still playing with a bottle of perfume on the table, but when he heard the price, he gently put down the perfume with trembling hands.

"Boss, is this price appropriate? Why don't you lower it a bit? We're in the lower city here, and there aren't as many rich people as in the upper city."

Payne was submissive, persuading him in the most tactful tone.He didn't want the new boss he just found to be "disappeared" immediately.

Ah Hao nodded: "It can indeed be lowered a little.

"Then it's 460 Canadian dollars a bottle. 2468 is relatively scattered, and you have room for tipping."

As for the pricing, Ah Hao has also thought about it carefully.The lack of 32 Canadian dollars is not a problem at all, and this amount of money should be regarded as a commission for Payne.

According to Agadi's ethos, most people who are willing to spend more than 2000 yuan to buy perfume will not ask for change.

Compared with this little money, they care more about "face".

Then the perfume in his own store is a little cheaper than the ones sold by Julie and Wende, which can be regarded as an attraction.

"The price is good, I think the price is very reasonable."

Payne's eyes lit up when he heard the tip.He didn't care whether it was expensive or not, and praised him several times.

"That's it, you look at the store. The perfumes on the long table are all available for trial use. If a customer comes, you can help spray a little perfume on the paper in front and let the customer smell it.

"Then if the customer wants to buy it, you just bring him a new one from the cabinet. Each perfume is placed in a different cabinet, and you'll get to know you better later. The front hall is left to you, and I'm in the back In my studio, if you need to ask me for something important, just knock on the door."

"Okay okay."

After briefly explaining a few precautions, Ah Hao turned around and opened the two shop doors wide open.

This is considered open for business.

Then he picked up a bottle of [Pinazza Coconut] from the table, and sprayed it at the door of the store twice.

The scent of sea breeze and coconut gradually wafts out.

"It smells so good." Payne smelled Ahao's perfume for the first time, and he sucked in the moist and fresh air vigorously.

"Come on! Sell your goods well!"

Ah Hao patted Payne on the shoulder and walked to the back studio.
