Chapter 21 Step by step into the abyss
Although Shen Yuequn himself didn't understand why he had to fabricate a Kaka master like this, the effectiveness of this countermeasure was still excellent.
First of all, consignment and the 10 yuan deposit ensure that customers will not mess around with shoe sizes, making it difficult for him to operate with peace of mind. At the same time, most of the shoes are also marked with JN, so they are basically sold on consignment.
The prices are all below 50 yuan, and they can be sold that year. Customers can get the consignment cash in up to three days. This is still a profit, and it completely solves the problem of wrong shoe sizes.
At the same time, Shen Yuequn discovered that there are so many repaid shoes on consignment here, which greatly increases the chance of repeat purchases, because these people discovered that if leather shoes are sold, they can not only wear them themselves, but also take them for consignment.
It might turn into 50 yuan in cash.
Although there is only a one-tenth chance of getting leather shoes, as long as you are rich enough, you will definitely make money!
Especially the pair of 500 yuan shoes placed in the consignment area... As time goes by, and Shen Yuequn explains the two letters KK whenever he has something to do, the first thing everyone does after buying leather shoes is to look at themselves
Are there any non-JN marks on the soles of the leather shoes? It’s a pity that several days have passed and no second pair of such leather shoes has appeared.
Of course, many people have expressed doubts about Shen Yuequn's words. The story of this Italian master seems a bit unreliable, and the style and appearance of this pair of leather shoes seem to be similar to other leather shoes sold!
On the sixth day, the situation finally changed.
On this day, Shen Yuequn was selling blind boxes at the same place as usual, and there were also many people gathered around him. However, many of them came here specially. They all saw their friends changing their wallets and heard about them.
Ten yuan can open at least one wallet, and you can also get leather shoes, belts and other things. After that, I took the bus and came here to try my luck. Anyway, I just have such idle people who are not short of time.
"Why did you still miss it?" A young man threw the blind box in his hand helplessly into the trash can next to him, saying in great pain and depression.
He bought three blind boxes in one go, and ended up with three wallets and not a pair of leather shoes. He came here just for the leather shoes.
"Young man, you only came up with leather shoes after only three blind boxes? Don't you know that on average there is only one pair of leather shoes in more than ten blind boxes? It's really normal that you didn't win in three boxes!" Shen Yuequn was not the one who spoke.
He was busy collecting money now and had no time to care about this unfortunate child. He was talking to a few regular customers nearby.
In addition to many new people here every day, there are also many old customers gathering here.
Most of these people are unemployed or retired people. They have nothing to do and just wander around for fun all day long. Then they discover that there is a lot of fun here, and they can see many people ecstatic every day.
, many people feel pain in their balls.
These people have become their best fun. For example, the young man in front of them is the new fun they discovered.
"That's it!" The young man felt a lot better. It turned out that I only got one out of ten, so my luck was not too bad.
"Young man, you can buy two more. Anyway, you can sell them on consignment for basically 50 yuan. You only need two blind boxes except for the leather shoes, so it's not a loss!" A little old man said with a smile.
"That makes sense!" The young man's head got hot, so he paid another 20 yuan and bought two blind boxes. When he opened them, he saw two more wallets.
"Damn!" The young man's face became even more depressed.
"Hey, young man, don't be discouraged. A pair of leather shoes now costs at least 100 yuan. If you wear them yourself, even if you buy ten boxes, if you can get a blind box, it's not a loss. You can also pick up 5 wallets for free, right?
?" The person next to him continued to encourage.
"Yeah!" Perhaps he was encouraged by others, or perhaps he was a little unwilling, so the young man bought five more blind boxes in one go and opened them one by one.
It's just that every time I opened one, my face became darker. After opening all five, my face became completely sad, because there were still five wallets and not a pair of leather shoes.
Because I bought ten blind boxes, many people were paying attention to this young man at this time, including naturally those who encouraged him before.
"Ahem, I'm actually pretty lucky. None of these five wallets are the same!" someone said with relief.
"Why don't you buy five more and give it a try!" someone continued to encourage!
"Young man, forget it, don't buy it. You're not lucky today, so don't buy it!" Someone also came to dissuade him.
"How can that be done? If I leave, won't all the 100 yuan I spent before be wasted?" Unexpectedly, the young man actually directly refuted the person who persuaded him to leave, and then took out ten yuan and said to Shen Yuequn, "
Boss, give me another one!"
Shen Yuequn also paid attention to this young man at this time, so he immediately gave him a blind box. When he opened it, it was still a wallet.
"Here comes another boss!"
"another one!!"
…
Five more blind boxes came down one after another, and they were all still leather wallets, with no leather shoes at all. This time, even Shen Yuequn felt a little embarrassed and said proactively, "Young man, forget it, you are no longer in good condition today, and your luck is not good either."
, let’s talk about it after a while!”
"No, I have already lost fifteen coins this time. If I retreat now and come back tomorrow and start from scratch, then won't all the fifteen coins I lost today be wasted?" the young man shouted.
Well, what I said was messy, my mentality was messed up, and I didn't learn probability well. If the math teacher saw it, I'm afraid he would be pissed to death.
But it is obvious that the young man has fallen into it. Even if the people around him are trying to persuade him to give up, he completely ignores it. He only has one thought, that is, if he gives up now, all the money he has paid before will be lost.
It's all wasted.
This is the sunk cost in economic theory, also known as the gambler's mentality.
Ever since, this young man continued to buy blind boxes. Although he only sold one at a time, he did not stop at all. As long as the wallet was opened, he would definitely buy another one.
Obviously, this kid won't give up unless he comes up with a pair of leather shoes.
In this way, the child continued to buy nearly 50 blind boxes. He had already spent nearly 500 yuan, but he still didn’t have a pair of leather shoes. At this time, everyone around him also gathered around the child, and he became everyone’s attention.
Focus.
To be fair, if there weren't other people around who kept selling leather shoes one after another, proving that there were indeed a lot of leather shoes in the blind box, people would probably have begun to question whether Shen Yuequn was trying to trick people.
But this is the most hurtful thing for the young man, because he bought 50 blind boxes and missed one, but watched other people around him win the leather shoes after just buying one. You can imagine how bad this mentality is.
