Chapter 429: East Village
Obviously, we sold the soup so expensive, and we have earned dozens of gold from them in the past few days, and their eyes were still like they were going to kill in the first two days, why did they change so quickly? ”
He Yue's face was full of doubts, I smiled, took a chair and asked her to sit down first, and then explained:
"Sister Yue, people's hearts are complicated. Not to mention elsewhere, just the hundreds of people in our Sanniu Village can make a lot of trouble every year, which makes Guo Ye very busy.
Disgust and favor are opposites, and it is true that we are disgusted when we sell fish soup very expensively, but from the first time the villagers paid for it, they recognized in their hearts that our fish soup was worth the price.
So even if the villagers gritted their teeth and looked at us, as long as the fish soup was still delicious, they would still pay for it obediently. ”
He Yue tilted her head, she actually knew what I said, so I continued:
"Because the villagers accepted the price in their hearts, when we lowered the price, they would have a feeling that they would finally take advantage of it, and their disgust with us would be greatly reduced.
Like Mr. Yi, who only gives them benefits, it may take ten days and a half months to improve their favor, but first a slap and then a sweet date, the villagers have a contrast in their hearts, and the favor will of course come faster. ”
He Yue nodded knowingly and said:
"It's true, some merchants often discount and have a good reputation, which should be the reason."
In the next two days, He Yue and I boiled more fish soup, and adjusted the price of fish soup to three bowls of gold for one piece of gold, and the supply was unlimited.
Finally, three days later, in the early morning, the two messengers came to the village again, and at this time the villagers were gathered in front of the soup pot waiting to buy fish soup.
The messenger sniffled, slightly surprised by what was before me, but instead of offering them soup, I said to the villagers:
"Big brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts, there are many disturbances in the village during this time, everyone should know what the price reduction of fish soup is for in the past few days, and I hope everyone will say a few more kind words in front of the messenger, so that there will be many discounts in the future of fish soup price reduction."
"Come on, don't squeeze, there's a lot of fish soup today, everyone has a share!"
After the villagers had finished drinking the fish soup, the two messengers beckoned the villagers over, and each of them said a few words to the messengers, pointing at me as they spoke.
After speaking to all the villagers, the messenger came to the soup pot and brought me two small pieces of gold:
"Soup."
I answered, and quickly filled two bowls of soup with the largest coconut shell, specially added a few more pieces of fish, and handed them to the two messengers.
The envoy drank the fish soup and nodded with satisfaction, and at this time, the effect of the spiritual food technique happened to disappear, and the two messengers also put down the coconut shell bowl.
"You, come with me."
"You can only bring one at a time."
I had already discussed with He Yue that no matter what, I had to leave one person behind, first, to continue to boil soup to improve the goodwill of the villagers, and secondly, the gold earned would have to be handed over to Tian Yingying, Wang Dazhuang and Nie Yiyuan, who would come over soon.
I pulled He Yue aside and explained to her that in the future, the fish soup will be sold for one gold, two bowls and three bowls, and when you need to brush your favorability, you can even give it away for free, after all, we have made enough money, and we also have a stable way to brush the villagers' favorability.
He Yue nodded, then suddenly threw herself into my arms, put her head on my chest, and whispered:
"Be careful this time, I'll wait for Yingying and them to come over in the village first, and then I'll go over to find you."
I hugged He Yue hard, and then followed the two messengers out of the village.
The village has been surrounded by a thick fog, and I've tried to explore it these days but to no avail, and I can't get out of it.
But there was a messenger leading the way, and it didn't take long to get out of the area blocked by the dense fog, and in front of it was a larger village, unlike the fishing village when I went to the island, and the buildings in the east village were mostly made of stone.
There is also a high altar in the center of the East Village, and although there is nothing on it, many people wearing fishskin clothes are worshipping it.
The two messengers took me to a stone house, did not make any stay, and then ran to worship the altar as well.
I frowned at the slightly gloomy waters above, and at the huge incense burners that could be found everywhere in the village, and the strange spices burning in them, which made me feel very uncomfortable here.
"What the hell is this place......
Walking around the village, the villagers here are all dressed in the same fishskin clothes, and there are few pedestrians on the street, either kneeling under the altar or running away.
Judging from the number of houses, there should be a thousand people in this village, and at most 200 people kneeling down to worship the altar, but the remaining seven or eight hundred people are not at home.
Most of the people in the village don't know where to go, and there must be a secret behind this village.
I got some food from the villagers' houses, and as soon as I returned to the stone house, I saw Mr. Yi coming out of the stone house next to me.
He seemed a little surprised to see me, but only a little, and said:
"I didn't expect you to come so soon, did you come to this island not only for the Yin Beast, but also for that thing?"
Speaking of the Yin Beast, it seems that this is the island where 'Anger' and 'Greed' are located, and it turns out that they have to go through a storm to get here.
And he just said "that thing" and compared "that thing" to the Yin Beast, what is that? Is it also one of the purposes of the Black Robe's meeting on the island?
I suppressed the doubts in my heart and smiled:
"That's right, I'm going to take the Yin Beast away, and 'that thing' is also mine, you black robes won't have a chance!"
Mr. Yi stared into my eyes, and after a while, he suddenly smiled:
"Looks like you don't know."
With that, he went to the village, not knowing what to do.
I thought about it, put the food back in the stone house, and followed.
Mr. Yi soon spotted me, he turned around and smiled at me, went into some villagers' stone houses to get some daily necessities, and then went back.
For the next two days, I kept secretly observing, Mr. Ke Yi never left the stone house except for looking for daily necessities, and occasionally stood at the door to look at the village, but he would go back soon, and I didn't know what he was doing inside.
I had a feeling that he was waiting for something, and that he was waiting for something mysterious and weird.
Because the direction that Mr. Yi was looking at when he stood at the door was the altar in the middle of the village.
In the past few days, the villagers have lit fires on each level of the altar, and as they kneel, the color of the flames slowly changes.
From the normal red at first, to bright yellow to miserable white, and finally to the current emerald green, and the flames jumped three feet high.
The top of the altar was originally empty, but at some point there was a three-legged copper tripod, which was full of strange incense.
Judging by the villagers' past actions, it seems that they have decided to set it on fire tonight.
