My harem is a bit big

"He wants to buy this robotic arm, will you pay for it?"

Chen Duoyu did not deny it, smiled and nodded:

"That's right, but before that, I have a few questions I'd like to ask."

Eve hesitated for a moment and felt that this request was reasonable:

"Hmm, tell me."

Chen Duoyu first asked a simple question to lower the foreign girl's vigilance:

"First, how much does this robotic arm cost?"

Eve had never sold a robotic arm before and tentatively stretched out her finger:

"50 taels?!"

Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't answer, she changed her words:

"If you think it's too expensive, the price can be negotiated."

Quote first and then negotiate the price yourself. How can anyone do this kind of business?

Chen Duoyu held back his smile and further explored the truth:

"As far as I know, in order to prevent technology leaks, foreigners are prohibited from selling sophisticated steam equipment. I'm curious, why do you bring it here to sell it? You can't just buy it home for a few days and then be forced to take it back. Who will do it? How about compensation for my losses?”

Eve bit her lip, looking a little struggling.

But the shopkeeper's concerns were very reasonable and there was no way to refute them.

She thought over and over again and finally revealed the truth:

"Let me tell the truth, this robotic arm was made by my master. Although it does not use steam, it has better performance than steam equipment. The guys from Yuebuluo Heavy Industry wanted to buy my master's core technology. They were met with failure. After refusing, he used dirty tricks, smashed up the machine shop, and set a fire. I sent the robotic arm to replace parts that day, and was lucky enough to save it. This thing cannot be used in the south of the city, it is easy to be detected, and only I came here to try my luck. I want to sell it at a good price and buy medicine for Master to cure his illness."

When Chen Duoyu heard this, his eyes lit up.

This kind of talent with skills but no money is exactly what investment companies need.

His expression flickered and his attitude was very sincere:

"Girl, I have seen steam equipment and know how powerful it is. If what I said is true, your master has epoch-making inventions and creativity. It is a pity that it is left in the south of the city like this. The world is so vast, and the stage for the future is still very small. Big. If you don't mind it, you can secretly bring your master here, and I'll cover all the money for the treatment."

Facing the foreign girl's suspicious gaze, Chen Duoyu smiled:

"Don't worry, I am not the same as those heavy industry guys. Geniuses are destined to be lonely and not understood by the world. The main reason for letting your master come to me is to cure the disease first. I will not ask him to provide any technology. , and I won’t ask him to make anything. I simply appreciate this person and don’t want him to be buried by the world.”

This rhetoric is a very common commercial deception technique.

Just like a roadside beauty salon, you first try to coax people into the door by talking nicely.

As for whether you can squeeze out residual value in the future, it all depends on your ability.

Eve was hesitant, influenced by [sugar-coated bullets], and agreed:

"Okay, I'll talk to Master when I get back and see if she's willing to come over. Then...shopkeeper, what about this?"

She raised her robotic arm and said with some confidence:

"If you think it's expensive, you can consider it cheaper."

"Well, it's not expensive, it's not expensive at all. Look at the smooth lines and curved surface design. It's simply a work of art. Selling it at this price means I'm taking a big advantage."

From the description of the foreign girl, it can be analyzed that her master is an aloof person.

Others spend money to buy core technology, only to be rejected.

It means that this person values ​​art and identity more than money.

If you want to win over, you must start from these two aspects.

Furthermore, Monk Vacuum had previously handed over 200 taels of silver, so why not deduct 50 taels now?

Anyway, Chen Duoyu didn’t spend any money and wasted nothing.

"Hey, is it?"

Eve smiled, very happily.

This recognition of technology gave her the illusion of a thousand-mile horse meeting Bole.

019 The Weakest Inner Disciple

Chen Duoyu's harmless smile made Eve feel like a spring breeze:

"Of course, noble and generous lady. Even if you know very little about me, you should believe in my pursuit of art."

He took out 50 taels of silver notes from his arms and considered the other party's position very much:

"If you are inconvenient to exchange due to your status, I can make a trip and exchange it for 50 taels of cash. Or I can go to the south of the city and exchange it for your currency."

Eve bowed slightly, feeling very embarrassed:

"Shopkeeper, could you please change it to cash? Thank you."

"Well, then please stay here and don't move around."

Chen Duoyu turned around and left without delay.

In order to earn more impression points, you cannot ask someone to do this kind of thing for you.

The emphasis on art can only be seen in person.

In the empty store, a man and a woman were silent.

Eve felt at a loss and took the initiative to start the topic:

"Your shopkeeper seems to be a nice person."

"Almsgiver, what you hear is false, but what you see is true."

"what?!"

The sudden answer startled her:

"Is the shopkeeper a bad person? This... doesn't look like it."

"No, no, outsiders' judgments will always be biased. This should be observed by oneself and cannot be explained in words. The Buddha said, as I said..."

Eve felt dizzy after hearing this, and quickly stopped her:

"Stop, stop! Stop talking, let's just keep quiet, okay?"

She would rather be embarrassed than listen to the obscure truth.

After more than ten minutes, Chen Duoyu returned to the store.

He packed the silver in a small cloth bag and gave it to Eve.

The latter thanked him and carefully explained the precautions for installing and using the robotic arm.

"Shopkeeper, I'm going back first. As for the master, I'll help you ask after I get back."

"Okay, it's work."

Chen Duoyu sent the blond foreign girl out of the shop and stood on the steps to watch.

Because, it has been planted.

I don’t know, what kind of results will it bear?

After a while, he turned around and prepared to go back to the office.

But he found that Vacuum put his hands together and meditated on the spot.

It is indeed a bit reluctant to let a monk look after the store.

Chen Duoyu found wooden boards and charcoal, wrote a recruitment notice and placed it at the door.

In this era, there is no concept of front desk positions.

Even if it were written, passers-by would not be able to understand it.

He simply left a message on the board asking the applicants to be smarter.

For other positions, wait until people ask about them before introducing them.

Time flies so fast, and the sun is going to set in a blink of an eye.

Neighbors were watching outside, mostly to watch the excitement.

There are only a few people who dare to come in for consultation.

Chen Duoyu was bored and yawned.

Seeing the setting sun in the sky like blood, I was ready to close the store and go home.

At this moment, a Taoist priest with a handsome face knocked on the door:

"Hello, are there any recruits here?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he noticed the monk sitting cross-legged and meditating, looking slightly surprised:

"Hey, why are you here?"

Open your eyes in a vacuum, see the other person, and bow your hands politely:

"Master Zhang, you are fine."

Buddhism and Taoism, as major local sects, often intersect.

When a Taoist priest sees a monk, he calls him Master or Great Monk.

When a monk meets a Taoist priest, he calls him a mage, a Taoist friend, or a Taoist master.

When Chen Duoyu saw that the two knew each other, he became interested:

"Vacuum, this is..."

Without waiting for his reply, the Taoist priest bowed his hands and introduced him actively:

"The young master has a handsome appearance. He must be the shopkeeper here. Have you ever heard of Lingshan Temple and Qingyun Temple?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"
