Home of the Brave

The arena for the election ceremony was set up in the Arena in the northeast of Sari City, and the trading market was not far from the Arena.

Dai Yang drove a carriage to the market in Saari City. Under normal circumstances, most of the bazaars are wingmen who sell fur and herbs, but due to the holding of the heavenly election ceremony, many unrelated people are also attracted. Along the way, Dai Yang saw many merchants wearing Oberstein-style costumes hawking along the market. It is estimated that they should also come from the empire to join in the fun, but they don't know if it has anything to do with the flying dragon battleship.

Because he came too late, the best position in the market has been occupied by competitors in the same industry. Dai Yang drove a wagon around the market, and finally found an open space that was not considered remote. He stopped the carriage, lifted the rain-proof canvas on the goods, spread it on the ground as a temporary stall, and then placed the goods on the carriage one by one.

Steel swords, war guns, shields, daggers... you can see that the goods placed in the booth are not cheap adventure props, but relatively expensive weapons and equipment.

What needs to be explained is that because the arms trade requires a huge cost, it was not a project that the deficit-ridden "cemetery of the brave" could get involved in. However, in the previous Iron Rock Fort incident, Dai Yang smashed the demons and ghosts who had been in trouble with the dwarves for many years, and was kind to the Iron Rock Fort, so under the guarantee of the old dwarves, he was able to purchase a batch of Iron Rocks by way of accounting. Sophisticated weapons produced by the Fort. Originally, Dai Yang planned to transport them to the black market in the royal capital of Bahala for sale after the beginning of the spring, but since there is such an excellent opportunity as the heavenly election ceremony, there is no need to wait until after the beginning of the spring.

First sell the goods to earn the principal, and then use the money to make a fortune on the dark plate of the ring game, so as to solve the problem of deficit once and for all! ——Dai Yang, who was thinking like this, had fierce fighting spirit burning in his eyes! It seems that the black-haired young man who is once again transformed into a greed demon has decided to do whatever it takes to get rid of the deficit!

"...Okay! Use that trick!"

With such a decision, Dai Yang found a signboard from the carriage, wrote a few large characters on it with a pen, and found a poorly bought dagger from the stall and inserted it on the signboard. Then just put the weird sign with the dagger in it next to the stall, and waited for the fish to get the bait.

Soon, an uncle wingman passing by noticed the weird sign here, stopped, and read the words on it.

"Those who block this sword will get three silver...Hey, brother, what does this mean?"

"Those who block this sword will get three silver coins, which means that as long as you have a way to block this sword..." Dai Yang pointed to the short sword on the signboard. "You can get three silver coins."

"...Are you kidding?" Looking at the short sword that was only an inch long, Uncle Wingman showed obvious suspicion.

"Hey, uncle, you can't judge people by their appearance!" Dai Yang shook his fingers and made a "tsk tsk" sound. "Do you think this is just an ordinary weapon? Wrong! This is a magic weapon from the Iron Rock Fort, and it also has the quality assurance of the hammersmith. It is a veritable iron-cutting mud! If you don't believe it, you can try it, it can stop it. If you come down, you can get three silver coins?"

Dai Yang, who was talking like this, took out three bright silver coins from his pocket and shook them in front of Uncle Yiren's eyes. It would have been better to use gold coins, but he has never had that kind of high-level currency.

"Really?" Uncle Yiren showed a look that he wanted to try, but he didn't carry a weapon on his body, plus Dai Yang played the name of Iron Rock Fort. Considering that Iron Rock Fort’s weapons have always been known for their excellent quality, Uncle Wingman hesitated and finally chose to give up. "Forget it, I didn't bring out the weapon, so I will leave those three silver coins to others..."

"Really? That's a pity." Dai Yang was not in a hurry, anyway, the original propaganda purpose had been achieved.

In the next time, as Dai Yang had expected, the weird sign attracted more and more people's attention.

"Those who block this sword will get three silver coins", this provocative slogan, coupled with the shabby dagger inserted on the signboard. The arrogance created by the two relative comparisons caused passing pedestrians to stop and watch, and it didn't take long for a large crowd to gather. There were adventurers and travelers in the crowd that gathered, and there were Obersteins and winged people. Looking at that dagger that didn't look good at all, and thinking about the reward of up to three hundred lien, many guys showed an eager look.

"Hey, boss, can you really get three silver coins as long as you take the next sword?"

A burly man with a big sword at his waist couldn't help but stand up first.

"Of course." Dai Yang responded with a smile. "With so many people watching, the little ones don't dare to shame..."

"Then... OK! I'll try it!" After getting Dai Yang's affirmative answer, the strong man decided to be the first person to eat crabs. He walked to the center of the field, moved his hands and feet first, then drew out the big sword around his waist, clasped it firmly with both hands, steadied his horse and put on a posture of a grid. "Come on, boss."

"Well, I have to explain the small thing first..." Dai Yang drew the short sword from the signboard, walked to the court and confronted the strong man, and declared in advance: "Those who block the next sword can get three silver coins. , This is okay. But if you can’t stop it, the small one won’t be responsible for compensating for the chopped weapon. It’s okay, right?”

His words fell in the ears of the onlookers, causing bursts of laughter.

The strong man is six feet tall and has a tiger-backed chest. The big sword in his hand is about five feet long and two inches thick. It is a powerful weapon. On the other hand, Dai Yang was a head shorter than the strong man, and he only had a short sword in his hand. Regardless of the size of the sword or the size of a person, the strong man has an overwhelming advantage, even if he thinks with his knees, he knows what the result of this competition is. Many people snickered and turned their eyes to Dai Yang, waiting to see his fate later.

"Come on! Boy, you can chop it anyway!"

The brawny man who was supported by everyone also got excited and shouted.

At this time, Dai Yang had raised the sword in the air, as if shocked by the loud shout, the short sword in his hand dropped and fell on the burly man's big sword. Hearing only a crisp sound of "clang", accompanied by two light sounds of heavy objects falling, only half of the big sword in the strong man's hand was left, and the other half fell to the ground together with the short sword. Looking closely, I saw that the fractured part of the big sword was smooth and flat, like tofu cut with a knife.

"My...My sword..." Looking at the broken sword in his hand, the burly man's chin fell to the ground, and the crowd of onlookers was also full of the sound of spectacles falling off for a while.

"Uh, sorry, my hand slipped..." Dai Yang scratched his head, picked up the dagger from the ground, and introduced it to the crowd of onlookers. "This sword is produced by the Iron Rock Fort, and the top dwarf hammersmith personally supervised the top **** soldier. Its sharpness is just as sharp as you have just seen." Said, Dai Yang pointed to the half-cut sword on the ground. "This kind of climax iron rock fort only produces a few pieces each year, and the dwarves almost never sell them to the outside world. The small ones are only able to get this batch of inventory with years of friendship, and the quantity is very limited. Please everyone. Pre-order as soon as possible."

With a beating to the onlookers, Dai Yang went up and patted the brawny man with a crying face.

"This strong man, I am embarrassed to break your weapon. If you don't dislike it, you can go to a small booth to pick a handy weapon to use... a big sword? Of course there is, and it's the best product made by the hammersmith himself. Goods! Seeing that you are the first customer to open a small store, the small one will give you a 30% discount. How about three hundred lien? Ah, there is absolutely no need to worry about quality. Come, just take a look. Knowing that it is absolutely great value!"

Dai Yang said as he pulled the strong man towards the stall, and on the way he thought of something and added something back.

"Ah, by the way, if you don't believe your eyes, please continue to try your sword."

Dai Yang left these words and returned to the booth leisurely, while the crowd behind him, who was silent because of consternation, burst into noise like a rebound. Seeing the brawny man joking and choosing weapons, and then looking at the dagger that is still inserted on the signboard and has no blade at all. Comparing the two, it is really easy to doubt whether this is the same scene. The commercial drama has already been planned.

Many of the onlookers thought this way, and some of them couldn't help but itch their hands and drew out weapons to challenge Dai Yang, and their challenge attracted more and more people to participate-for Dai Yang, This is exactly what he expects to see.

In the following dozens of minutes, the guys who tried to challenge the Tieyanbao brand lined up in the market.

With the wailing after another, no matter the adventurer who makes the sword, the winged warrior who makes the spear, and even the knight with the shield, dozens of brave warriors are in the inconspicuous short The sword sinks the boat and breaks the halberd. The crowd that attracted the onlookers exclaimed one after another, and "Products from Tieyanbao" became a sign of gold from this moment!

It's just that, helping Tieyanbao's brand promotion is just by the way. Taking advantage of the opportunity to create a group of potential customers is someone's real goal.

Those guys who had their weapons cut off and wanted to cry without tears were attracted by Dai Yang's words that "you can get a 20% discount" and became avid customers of the temporary weapon shop without resistance. Infected by their emotions, more and more bystanders have devoted themselves to the ranks of selecting weapons, especially when Dai Yang played the sign of "Limited quantity, one per person", the frenetic buying atmosphere reached its climax!

"Boss! I want this gun, how much is it?"

"Oh oh! The strong man really has vision, this gun is made of 100-refined steel, even if you...well, 480 lien is ready."

"Wait, I saw that gun first! You guys put it down for me!"

"Stop talking nonsense, pay first! Hey, five hundred lien here, no need to make up."

"Boss! How many daggers of this style are left?"

"Oh, there are three more daggers. This dagger is made of 100-refined steel, and the price is three hundred and twenty lien each..."

"I want it all for a thousand lien! Get the rest out of me soon!"

Along with conversations like this, people who fell into fanaticism almost rushed to throw silver coins into the purse of the black-haired youth, and there were also many people who fought for the same weapon. If Miranda were there, she would be shuddering at the horrible motivation of the black-haired youth, right?

First, use exaggerated advertisements to attract customers' attention, and then use small favors to attract customers to buy. Once a trend is formed, driven by the herd effect, it is easy to usher in the hot scene of frantic buying. Whether it’s the Valley of the Giants last time or Saari City this time, the black-haired youth’s marketing methods can be said to be the same, and they are all very efficient. If it weren't interrupted by an accident, this panic buying trend would probably last until the last moment, right?
