Chapter 78 Help the Marquis to move
Ivory Island at the end of December is destined to be noisy and chaotic!
After the unfortunate incident of pirate attacks, when people are still immersed in anger and grief, the Ivory Evening News, which is released on time every three days, has once again created a series of hot spots, attracting everyone's attention.
Within just two weeks, as the influence of the evening newspapers expands, a fresh promotional method called advertising has become popular throughout Ivory Island. Whether in the streets and alleys, or in taverns and banquets, you can hear people discussing advertisements at any time. Even children playing on the street can occasionally appear an advertisement slogan.
"Not all red wine is called Porturan, the king of wine, the noble-like graceful enjoyment!"
"Just come to the bowl, you'll get into the bowl. Rainbow brand cheese produced from high-quality ranches is pollution-free and has no additives, and it will accompany you every day of your growth!"
"Diamonds are eternal, and one is everlasting. With precious jewelry from Philenese Jewelry Store, you will find that the world can be more beautiful..."
"This year, you don't accept gifts. If you accept gifts, you can accept Garcem. Not all beers are called Garcem. This may be the best beer in the world!"
In this way, when these advertisements appear in a fatigue bombardment, ordinary readers who have just come into contact with the evening newspapers and advertisements are almost completely conquered without any immunity... Well, from a certain perspective, a world lacking media is simply a paradise for unscrupulous advertising practitioners.
In this case, the merchants who spent a lot of money to advertise suddenly found that the effect of advertising was much better than they expected. It is no exaggeration to say that almost every store that just finished advertising would have a hot business within a few days, and the guests waiting at the door even lined up from the street to the end of the street.
Take Mr. Anderson as an example. After seeing the first advertisement, the cheese merchant who was about to go bankrupt, he made up his mind to sell his property and raise funds. He hurried to the Evening News to book an advertisement. This crazy behavior of gambling was ridiculed by many people at the time, and even his wife was clamoring for divorce.
What’s even more speechless is that the investment of two thousand gold coins was only exchanged for a picture in the evening newspaper, plus a simple advertising slogan written by Lin Taiping casually - "The fragrance of milk is strong and the enjoyment is like silk..."
Crazy, this guy must be crazy! All the colleagues who learned about this news were gloating, and even Mr. Anderson himself began to feel regretful. Perhaps this was the stupidest mistake in his business history?
But, just a week later, when Mr. Anderson looked back at the matter, he raised his head proudly, saying that this was the wisest decision he had ever made in his life.
The cheese shop, which originally had only a few orders every day, was suddenly filled with customers, and the warehouse full of stock was swept away. The workers in charge of production worked overtime day and night, but still could not resist the orders flying like snowflakes. In the end, even the merchants who arrived at the outside island came to pick up the goods with the evening newspaper...
Then, Mr. Anderson, who was about to go bankrupt, suddenly turned into the largest cheese merchant on Ivory Island. The various cheese products under his name, even the cheap cheese that he could not sell a few months ago, became the most popular best-sellers. This time it was the turn of those customers to queue up to ask him to ship the goods.
Who are you responsible for all this?
There is no doubt that Mr. Anderson was a good person who knew how to be grateful, so on the second day after his development, he immediately rushed to the evening newspaper with his jewel-like wife, booked the advertising rights for the next three periods in one go, and brought a whole cart of high-quality cheese to Vivian and the others as snacks after meals.
He was so happy that he was about to faint. Christine pulled a dozen little loli. Looking at a lot of cheese that drowns his ankles, she didn't know what to say. In short, even Vivian and the others used cheese as a meal every day. They could eat it until they grew up.
Damn it, why is this guy the only one taking advantage? Seeing this jealous scene, other businessmen were envious and jealous, and almost rushed up like a swarm. In this situation of supply and demand, an opportunity to advertise was speculated to be in short supply, so that people on the black market were selling the next advertising page.
So Lin Taiping could only rest in a closed door and could not bear it. In this way, Christine, who was close to him, and the others were injured and immediately became the main targets of the merchants. Christine received a pile of milk powder and diapers, and Ye Ge received jewelry calculated in pounds, and these things were sent in the name of trial, and they couldn't even be collected.
The worst thing is Tulu. This taurus who didn't know how to refuse accepted the food received sixteen banquets within a week. The merchants gave them almost whatever they wanted. They bent over and flattered them desperately, hoping that the other party could help say a few good words.
In the end, Tulu, who was known as a foodie, also fell down before the big meal. He touched his swelling belly. He rushed into the study with tears in his face, hugging Lin Taiping's thighs and never letting go: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
"Anla, Anla, I'm not much better than you." Lin Taiping patted its shoulder and sighed in agreement. "Yesterday morning, I told Mr. Jin Kedo that I prefer cigars, but the result..."
As a result, Mr. Jin Kedo obviously thought too much, so he did not send cigars, but sent a whole ten cigar pipes, all of which were pure gold!
Well, in this era of extremely underdeveloped media, the influence of advertising has indeed exceeded expectations, so Lin Taiping now has to rub his forehead and begins to worry about whether to shorten the interval between evening newspapers and change the original three-day period to two-day period, so that more advertisements may be arranged.
But the problem is that the newspapers are not enough staff, so it is easy to deal with reporters, but there is really a shortage of printing workers who master letterpress printing. Dozens of taurens are already busy and are about to jump into the sea to protest. If they increase their workload, they will really become Foxconn.
"No, never!" In fact, when Tulu heard that he was going to work overtime to print, he immediately picked up the fruit knife and put it on his neck in grief. "Lin, I swear with my favorite horns. If you dare to let us work overtime, our entire tribe will run away from home collectively, and even Leah will go together, so that you can't marry her even if you beat her to death."
"Uh, when will I marry her?" Lin Taiping wiped his cold sweat. Looking at the most beautiful girl of the Taurus who leaned into the door, he couldn't help but burst into tears. "Okay, okay, maybe I should think about where to find some dark creatures to join, and they want to be as easy as you... No, I mean. Just as loyal and honest."
This is a big problem. Tulu touched the horns in distress and began to think about whether there were any rumors about dark creatures nearby, maybe it was a vampire, maybe it was a dark orc, maybe it was a skeleton, the dark knight and the lich...
Unfortunately, due to the hatred of dark creatures in the Contans world, there are fewer and fewer dark races that still exist today, and most of them are hidden traces distributed on desolate islands. In this case, it is impossible to find them in a short time and persuade them to cooperate.
"Take it slowly, tell me when you have clues." Lin Taiping patted Tulu's shoulder to express comfort, paused, but slowly turned his head and looked out the window.
In the cold night, clouds had already covered the entire sky, and a lightning flashed across the clouds from time to time, accompanied by a low thunder roar. Perhaps soon, a rare winter thunderstorm will come.
"In winter, there will be thunderstorms?" Lin Taiping touched his chin with a strange face. After a moment, he suddenly turned around and patted his hands happily, "Okay. It's a good weather. Get ready, we're going to set off."
"Get out... set off?" Tulu yawned and slapped in half, and suddenly opened his mouth in surprise.
Almost at the same time, accompanied by a charming laughter, Ye Ge suddenly appeared behind him, stretching out his pink tongue like a snake, and exhaling with temptation like orchid: "Dear, I just came back from that manor, as we expected, it was the secret stronghold of Marquis Grandet."
"Manor?" Tulu became even more confused, but for a few seconds, it was so excited that its eyes were red and sprayed white, "So, are we going to rob now? Moo, I like this idea, I want to snatch that bastard Grandet so that he doesn't even have his pants left!"
"Nonsense, am I the kind of person who likes to rob?" Lin Taiping condemned righteously. "I just think that since Marquis Grandet specially sent pirates to visit some time ago, we should also go back to visit politely and help him clean the manor, clean the room, etc.."
"That's right." Ye Ge raised his hand desperately in agreement, saying that he had a lot of experience in cleaning the room, especially at organizing valuables, such as secret documents, jewelry heads, flash gold coins, and house deeds...
Do it as soon as you say it, the two unscrupulous guys were full of excitement and rushed out of the room immediately with murderous intent. In the manor hall outside, a large group of taurens and dark elves were ready to go, arming them from their teeth to their heels, just waiting to have a big fight tonight.
In fact, after this period of hard practice, coupled with Lin Taiping scattering gold coins to provide various resources, the dark creatures today have made great progress. Ordinary taurens and dark elves have reached the middle level of bronze, while Tulu and Ye Ge have broken through the bottleneck and promoted to high-level bronze berserkers and shadow assassins, which are enough to defeat the bloody eyes of the queen who transformed into an octopus siren.
"Very good, it seems everyone is ready." Lin Taiping stood on the balcony and looked at the dark creatures below, "Guys, I won't say much, there are only two requirements - first, help Christine find a way to relieve the curse; second, help Marquis Grandet move the house, gold, silver, house, table, chair, pot, all of them are removed... Are there any problems?"
It's strange if there is any problem. A large group of dark creatures looked at each other and suddenly howled to the sky excitedly. Dozens of taurens beat their chests hard, and the dense totem stone pillars were raised high. Even the calmest dark elves couldn't wait to pull out their daggers and let out a sharp roar.
Get it done, start work!
In an instant, with Lin Taiping's big hand waved, dozens of taurens carried the totem stone pillars, their eyes were red and their faces were full of excitement, and they rushed out of the wine manor with a scream like a surging black torrent.
Behind them were the dark elves holding poisonous daggers in their mouths. The miserable green light shone in the night, and their slender figures were like ghosts, appearing in the black fog.
Behind these vicious guys, Lin Taiping put Tulu and Ye Ge's shoulders and followed with satisfaction. But the next moment, he suddenly turned his head in surprise, "Wait, where is Christine?"
Let’s say Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive!
In the dim lights in the distance, Christine crushed over with a passionate face, carrying a pitch-black magic crystal naval cannon on her left shoulder, a small siege siege in her right hand, and a rumbling siege hammer behind her...
My God! Lin Taiping was creepy and the thunder was rolling, and he felt cold sweat flowing down like a waterfall: "I'm so mad, let me put those things down. We are going to rob, not to help people demolish them!"
What can you say? A long time later, in the cold wind in the middle of the night, Ye Ge suddenly shivered and sighed with sympathy-
"The God of Darkness is here, I suddenly feel that Grandet is in trouble!"
