In any case, Barbie now agrees with her suggestion, but she alone will definitely not be able to make such a big decision, so the two discussed, first do a pilot, build a medium-sized shopping mall, only let the people of the World Chamber of Commerce see the effect, and then can it go on more smoothly.

As for where this pilot will be built, Barbie proposed to build it in the central city, on the grounds that the consumption level there is relatively high and it is easy to produce results. However, Shelley strongly demanded that it be built in Yongle City.

This makes Barbie very puzzled, the first population of Yongle City is not as large as that of the central city, and the second consumption capacity is not as high as that of the central city. I can't think of a reason to build it here.

"Barbie, it's not that I'm selfish, even if you've never seen this business model with your own eyes, after listening to my story, you can think that it can bring a lot of profits. Just imagine, how can it not produce results in that place in Canterlot? Now that everyone understands in their hearts, is there still a need to do a pilot? ”

"But Her Royal Highness the Princess, the consumption level of Yongle City really can't support it."

"That's the second point I'm going to tell you, that your World Chamber of Commerce used to focus on consumers who were more skewed towards families with assets, which is wrong. It's not the ability to sell good goods to the rich, but it's the ability to make the people who don't have the same spending power. ”

"But we've never closed the door to low-cost people, aren't they just the same? The key is that there is no money. ”

"Business has never been just a businessman's business, and money must not just go to the hands of the rich and powerful. Barbie, you haven't thought about what will happen if one day only the rich and powerful people in the world are rich, and the people below have no penny? ”

"What can happen?"

Seeing her puzzled look, Nika on the side shook her head helplessly, and saw that Barbie was unhappy for a while.

"What are you shaking your head for? You're not a businessman. ”

"I'm not a businessman, but I know that. If all the money in the market ends up flowing only to the upper classes, then money will no longer be meaningful to those below, and at that time, the class society will begin to collapse and revolts will take place. Therefore, Her Royal Highness the Princess has been committed to bringing wealth back so that money can flow in a circular way in the market. ”

Barbie is not stupid, after Nika mentioned this, he could immediately realize the stakes, but when he saw Nika's proud appearance, he was angry in his heart: "What's great, you know it's also because you've been following Her Royal Highness the princess, and you didn't come up with it yourself!" ”

"Oh, let you see, I've been following Her Royal Highness the Princess, how about it? Angry or not? ”

"Okay~~" Shelley pulled away the two women who were about to quarrel with each other with a headache, this is the first time, can you still talk properly.

"Humph!" Both turned their heads away.

"Alas~ In short, what we want to do is not only to redefine the business model, but also to redefine the meaning of business. It's just that if you can make money, it can only be called doing business, and that's the case with your entire World Chamber of Commerce. Barbie, since you choose to learn from me, then I hope you can become the first existence in the world that can be called an entrepreneur. ”

"Entrepreneurs?" It's a new word, and Barbie is still a little confused about these three.

"Yes, an entrepreneur is a person who understands the social responsibility of a businessman, acts on it, and ultimately succeeds."

"The social responsibility of businessmen...... What is it? ”

"There are a lot of them, not only to earn their own money, but also to create a convenient way for the whole society to progress, to provide a large number of jobs for the society, and so on. Barbie, if you do that, become an entrepreneur. Then I promise that you will be awarded the Medal of Honor at the national level at that time. ”

"You give honors to businessmen? But we are ......."

Barbie was embarrassed to continue. Yes, businessmen have money, and businessmen can get closer to the powerful, but businessmen have no status. Because merchants are not good at production, they are just porters, and this is the definition of merchants in this world at the moment.

Regarding her doubts, Shelley did not shy away from saying: "First of all, I do not agree with the status of businessmen being lowered, and I do not think that the meaning of the existence of businessmen is only to accumulate money. I have always believed that you are an important part of the promotion of social progress. Even if your current level is not up to the word entrepreneur, I still give you great respect. At least with me, your status will not be any lowered. Secondly, as I said, this honor is awarded to entrepreneurs, and it is not enough to be just a businessman. ”

No one had ever recognized the status of these merchants like Shelley, and Barbie was so excited that she saluted Shelley, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Royal Highness Princess Shelley, I will do my best for this honor." ”

"Well, I'm optimistic about you."

Nika pouted, and said with a little resentment in her heart, "You have to come on, maybe someone got this honor before you." ”

“……”

Shelley escaped from the quarrel between the two daughters, and happened to meet the scarlet moon who was looking for him, and it seemed that she had been waiting at the door for a while.

"You haven't healed yet, why did you get out of bed? Come on, why don't you just go in? ”

Shelley held the slightly pale Crimson Moon and asked in a somewhat reproachful tone.

"I don't understand you when I hear you talking to a guest about something important, and I'm afraid of disturbing you when I go in. Don't worry about injuries, I'm much better, and the physical abilities of the superpowers are still very powerful. Now it's just a little bit of a void. ”

"How can there be so many important things to say, no, there is a quarrel inside." Shelley smiled helplessly.

"I heard you, you're still as attractive as ever, even I want to join in and quarrel with them."

"Don't don't~" Shelley confessed, "Don't tease me." Let's get down to business, what's the matter with running around here? ”

"Naturally, I'm coming to you."

"Then there's no need for you to come over in person, why don't you just ask someone to call me over directly?"

"......" Scarlet Moon was silent for a moment and smiled, "You, you can't be a little conscious of your identity. Where is Her Royal Highness the Princess doing so much for a subordinate. But then again, if that's not the case, we won't dump it for you either. ”

Shelley slapped her forehead angrily: "What is it good to sensationalize?" Say, what's going on? ”

"I want you to show me what I'm capable of."

"Ability? What's the hurry? Didn't I say that I would choose a day to check the abilities of your superpowers? ”

"Originally, it was no problem, but since I came back from my last injury in the cave, I've been lying in bed these days, and I've made new discoveries in my abilities, and if nothing else, I should have officially entered the second stage like White Smoke."

"Yes!" Shelley looked surprised, "Isn't that a good thing, since it's here, wouldn't it be nice to let everyone see and see it together later?" ”

Scarlet Moon shook her head and said with a serious face: "No, this ability of mine can only let you know, I'm worried that something will happen if more people find out." "School bag

"That said, your current preciousness can't be known to more people, after all, you have all my knowledge in your hands."

"Well, but this new ability of mine is even more powerful than that. It's easier for you to understand than for me to explain. ”

Shelley didn't think much of it, and took Scarlet Moon to his resting room.

"It's rude." Crimson Moon pressed her hands on Shelley's temples and activated the ability, and then said to Shelley, who was confused, "Okay, Your Highness Princess." ”

"Okay? What's good? Shelley looked back at Crimson, "Has anything changed?" What about illusions? ”

Scarlet Moon looked at her quietly and said, "You will know when you stand up." ”

Shelley stood up with a puzzled expression, but at that moment she found a shocked image of her altered self, or rather herself sitting there.

"This ...... What's going on? ”

"Rest assured, you are on both sides, this is your essence on this side, and the conscious you are now an illusion."

Shelley understood that emotion was projecting his consciousness into an illusion.

"Huh? No, since it's an illusion, then I shouldn't feel the pain and temperature, you see I can even touch the cup on the table. ”

Scarlet Moon nodded: "This is what I want to tell you next, this new ability of mine seems to not only turn people's consciousness into illusions, but also make this illusion a reality." To use a word you said earlier, this phenomenon should be explained. ”

"Illusion of substance!?"

"Uh-huh, that's it."

After all, I have watched so many anime in my previous life, and there are many powerful characters in it who can use illusions and can achieve illusions to the level of substance, so after Shelley first learned about Scarlet Moon's ability, he asked her if she could do it, and the answer at that time was no.

"Awesome, the illusion projected by the consciousness of real life can become a real illusion, isn't it true that in this state, even if I am injured and dies, it is not real?"

"Well, yes, it's just going to go back to the original." Seeing Shelley's look of wanting to try it, Scarlet Moon hurriedly persuaded, "But the feeling of injury and death is very real, so it is not recommended to experience it." ”

"It's a shame, I'd like to experience what it's like to die. Oh, you should be able to enter this state yourself, right? ”

Scarlet Moon shook her head: "It's a pity that I don't have superpowers in the illusion state, so I judge that after disillusioning the consciousness of other superpowers, they can't use superpowers in the illusion. ”

Shelley nodded, this still makes some sense, if she can continue to use her superpowers in the illusion state, at least for Scarlet Moon herself, she only needs to hide her body, can't she have infinite life? That's too buggy.

"Well, a very good new ability, in a sense, is equivalent to having two lives, and sometimes being able to launch surprise attacks. Belch...... However, this ability is not so bad that others can't know about it, as you said? ”

"Yes, just like that, I wouldn't have looked for you in private." As she spoke, Scarlet Moon's hands moved slightly, and the illusion of a long sword appeared out of thin air, she reached out and touched it, but pierced through, "You see, I still can't touch the illusion in my true state, but it's not the same to directly put people into the illusion state." ”

Seeing that Scarlet Moon sent this illusion sword, Shelley subconsciously touched this illusion sword, and sure enough, he caught it steadily: "What's so strange about this, I'm also an illusion now, the illusion touches the illusion, it's not very ......."

As she spoke, Shelley was stunned, and Scarlet Moon also knew that she was aware, and said slowly: "You have noticed it, after the consciousness of real life becomes an illusion, in addition to touching the illusion, you can also contact reality, and from the time you touch the illusion sword, it is no longer an illusion." At this time, you are the bridge between reality and illusion. ”

Shelley didn't speak, he looked at the sword in his hand in a daze, and then split the table open, and the corner of the table was cut off smoothly.

"Crimson Moon...... Is it possible that I in this state can also use your ability to visualize what is in my mind? ”

"Yes."

Shelley let go of the sword, and it became a pure illusion again. Then she raised her hand, and a thought came to her mind, and a smartphone appeared in her hand, and it worked normally except that there was no signal.

Another thought, the phone turned into a pistol, and the texture was no different from the real pistol.

"Shh~~~" Shelley gasped, and his expression finally became serious, "You did the right thing, this matter must not be known to the second person, at least not now...... Let me recover. ”

Crimson Moon nodded, pulling Shelley's consciousness back from the illusion back into her body.

After doing all this, Scarlet Moon's face turned even paler than before, and Shelley helped her to her bed.

"You've been weak for the past two days because you've been secretly experimenting with this ability, right?"

"Well, I'm worried about you."

Shelley was a little distressed, and couldn't help but teach: "You forgot what Bai Yan said, the use of the second stage of ability will consume a lot of energy, your injuries are not completely healed, and you can't eat too violently, the energy is not enough, and you are still so strong." ”

In the face of Shelley's reprimand, Scarlet Moon smiled: "For you, it's worth it." ”

Shelley's scalp exploded, and the monster that had been sacrificed in Canterlot to save himself came back to his mind.

"You...... Worth ......"

Thinking of this, Shelley's face darkened: "Scarlet Moon, I want to create a world without discrimination, not to let you superpowers die for me. Remember, your life is your own, don't live for others, if you really do it for my good, then the only thing to abide by is to let yourself live healthy and safe. ”

“……”

The other party didn't react, Shelley looked down and saw that the girl was actually asleep in his arms, and smiled bitterly: "That's it, let's talk about it later." ”

After speaking, he covered the quilt for Scarlet Moon.

"Phase 2 capability...... I've always wanted them to develop the true value of their abilities, but since abilities can be evolved, there's nothing wrong with appropriately increasing their combat effectiveness. Well, there are a few people, and it's time to officially pull the functions of the Super Knights up. ”
