Chapter 28: Wisdom is Mistaken by Wisdom (1)
Chapter 28: Smartness is wronged by cleverness (Part 1)
There is an old Chinese saying that intelligence is mistaken by intelligence. Once the decision of the Autonomous Chamber of Commerce was announced, it seemed that it was indeed a slap on the forehead of the Four Dadiancheng, which made these forces not come back to their senses for several days. Until later, Du Lengning, the manager of the flagship store of Luoshi Shangqingtian Department Store, came forward and selected the president of the Autonomous Chamber of Commerce. Everyone came back to the scene: Isn’t this president the local emperor of Shangqingtian? The relationship took a circle and threw a piece of meat out. Let’s see whoever has the ability will rob it.
So many evil dogs rushed up and looked for their agents in Shangqing Heaven. Which of the four major forces has no industry in Shangqing Heaven? It is too simple to find an agent. I didn’t know what this autonomous chamber of commerce is for, so among the merchants who seemed a little timid, seven or eight people came out to run for president. Du Lengning thought that this matter was just a formality, but he didn’t expect that there were so many people competing, and he felt a little embarrassed.
These people are all local snakes. The flagship store of Luoshi Department Store has not opened yet. So why compete with these people? Luo Qian also patted his forehead and felt that he had miscalculated this time. Fortunately, he never thought that he really wanted to be the president. I was lucky that I could not live, so I didn't care.
But things often don't develop in the direction he imagined. The four major forces are aggressive and even force Luo to force him out of the sky. Although Luo Qian's "big crocodile" has no intention of hurting people, those forces are also guarding against him. Almost every candidate regards Du Lengning as his first competitor, uses all his best in the election, and tries to attack Du Lengning. Soon rumors and scandals fly all over the world. Du Lengning, who was originally a good person, became a liar, a thief, a shameless person, an ungrateful person, and a person with indecent lifestyle...
Du Lengning smiled bitterly: "You think of a way to help me hold Li Xuexiao. She will come to visit me the day after tomorrow. If she hears these rumors, she will eat me!" Luo Qian did not expect that the matter would be so troubled. The sky was covered with big-character posters everywhere, denying the shame of immortals, and the traitor of society - Du Lengning. The crimes ranged from stealing chickens and dogs to stealing fragrance and jade.
Master Du is not a clay figure and is not angry. He has given up his strength to grab the president. Luo Qian also saw that the four major forces were very worried about his "big crocodile" lying in the lake water of Shangqingtian, and tried every means to drive him away. Luo's Department Store has not opened yet and has not yet determined what to do to operate, and has been established as the number one enemy.
This president must be taken down, otherwise all the hard work Luo has devoted to Shangqing Heaven will be wasted.
First, speed up the project progress. Construction in the fairy world is not like that in the lower world. As long as you are willing to invest, you can build a skyscraper overnight. Originally, Luo Qian wanted to wait until the ownership of Shangqingtian was settled, buy several ownerless shops next to him and build them together, but now he can't wait.
Two days later, a majestic building stood on the former site of the Hero Building. The building was in the shape of a T-shaped structure, with avant-garde design and comparable to Luo's Genting. The exterior walls were all wrapped in cheap and inferior fairy jade. The whole building was like a huge jade bamboo shoot inserted into Shangqingtian.
Although it is a low-quality fairy jade, it costs a lot of money for such a large surface area. However, the Luo Family Fairy Jade Mine produces fairy jade. This kind of low-quality fairy jade mine was originally useless and was disposable at a low price. Now it is used by Luo Qian for waste use, which is a good idea.
The warm jade reflects the sun's light, shining a soft glow on the surrounding buildings, and even these low-rise stores seem unusual. Luoche Department Store officially opened, but because of the haste, it cannot be as lively as the last time Luoche Genting opened. Although there are not many people coming, the scene is still lively. On the first day of opening, Luoche's advertisement on all billboards in the fairy world: 20% off for guests.
There is no marketing method of discount promotion in the merchants in the fairy world. Yuqingtian’s shopping mall often uses this trick, and now it is as effective as Shangqingtian.
This flagship store is almost a collection of Luoche: Luoche Pharmaceutical Store's elixir, Luoche Communication's communication conch, Luoche Jewelry's treasures and antiques, Luoche Bookstore's immortal books, Luoche Mining's top immortal jade... There are all kinds of goods, in addition to these, Du Lengning also stuffed their clothes in the ready-to-wear store, and then some of the aunts and aunts who have some relationships put some products in and sold. Anyway, this flagship store is extremely huge, and only selling Luoche's things is definitely a waste.
Luo Qian gave everyone a "certificate" to prove that these people are the agents of these products. Master Du became the agent of Luo's shopping mall in Yuanyitang. If something went wrong, he would just look for an agent and was too lazy to negotiate with the manufacturer. This would save trouble.
The 20% off promotion is very popular. People who came from all directions of the fairy world almost squeezed the door. Not to mention other things, the elixirs at Luoshi Pharmaceutical Store are all used daily and consumes a lot of money. Although 20% off sales perseverance may not cost much, buying hundreds of pills at one time will save more than one or two pieces of immortal jade.
In Shangqingtian, the merchants who originally operated small funds saw the demeanor of "big crocodile" for the first time. What a good guy, because of the last incident, Shangqingtian, which had been very deserted, almost overnight, and even surpassed it. These merchants were also mixed with joy and sorrow: the happy thing was that Shangqingtian finally returned to its previous prosperity, and the worried thing was that Luo Qian, the big crocodile, was there, and I wonder if there was still room for these little fish and shrimps to survive.
Luo Qian was not worried about this. His product grade was completely different from the grades of the small merchants below, and they were also different in types, and they did not conflict with each other. He didn't need to explain it. In a few days, these merchants could see from the turnover.
Shangqingtian, which became deserted due to the killing, seemed to have regained vitality overnight.
Bang bang bang bang...
A sound of gong came, Luo Qian heard it, Du Lengning also heard it, and the two rubbed their temples together: "Who is going to participate in the election?" As long as it is Shangqingtian Shang, they are qualified to participate in the president's election. Luo's Shangqingtian Shopping Mall has been open for several days, and this election is becoming more and more like a farce. At the beginning, there were some powerful merchants, at least there were people behind it, but in the past few days, I don't know what happened to everyone. Anyone can jump out and yell the gong on the street to announce that he is going to participate in the president's election. In three days, the number of candidates has increased from the original six to the seventeen!
Du Lengning said angrily: "Send someone out to see, which guy is going to join in the fun." A guy went out soon, and the gongs below were still banging. After a while, he brought the guy back with a strange smile: "Boss, the boss, the first female candidate appeared." Luo Qian and Du Lengning smiled and said, "Oh, which girl is it?" This tone did not seem to be asking the candidate, but it seemed to be caring about the lifelong affairs of their children and nephews.
"It's the boss of Fengchao Huangxiuzhuang Village behind us, but it is said that this female boss still has a lot of origin..." The guy didn't notice that Luo Qian's face had changed, and he was still talking proudly. Du Lengning's face darkened: "It's nothing for you, go out." The guy wondered, looked at the two of them, didn't dare to say more, and quit obediently.
Luo Qian suddenly smiled bitterly: "Which is this acting?... Alas!" Du Lengning patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, I came forward this time, you won't meet them. Otherwise, you go back to Genting first and leave it to me." Luo Qian thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "Okay, be careful about everything yourself."
On the way, his communication conch suddenly rang. As soon as he picked it up, he heard the loud voice of the rough man: "I said Xiao Luo, you can't tease us both like this, right?" Luo Qian was stunned: "Big old man, what's the matter? Why did I tease you two?" "You come to the underground palace for a trip." After the rough man said, he cut off the call. Luo Qian could hear that the old man was really angry, turned the front of the car and headed towards the mountain.
Xiao Baoer slept soundly in the car, not knowing that he had changed direction.
In the mountain underground palace, Xiao Baoer sat on Luo Qian's shoulder, and Luo Qian sat in front of the rough man. Xin Yezi and the rough man looked very bad, and there were materials the size of rice grains on the table. A grain was also lying in the thick palm of the rough man: "We thought you were the precious materials you brought, so we took a lot of effort to identify them. At first, I thought we had made a mistake, and repeated the experiments several times before we confirmed that we were right. This thing..."
Xin Yezi smiled bitterly and said, "Little Luo, you really don't know what this is?" Luo Qian shook his head, and Xiao Baoer shook his head with him.
"This is the wind-female iron that is often used in our fairy world making tools. Although it is not expensive, it is definitely not a valuable material. There are dozens of mines in the fairy world that are produced."
Luo Qian was surprised: "Are you kidding?" The old man with rough work was furious: "You don't believe in our level!" Luo Qian waved his hand quickly and said happily: "No, no, I'm not saying it, hahaha, that's great, hahaha..." The old man with rough work and Xin Yezi had a puzzled moment: What's wrong? I'm still so happy to identify such a waste?
