Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

Chapter 309 The Race Begins



The competition has officially begun, with both people going to purchase two batches of medicinal ingredients.

How to sell? It's entirely up to their discretion, but they still need to abide by the competition rules.

Wang Sheng might have not said before that it wasn't allowed to ask others for help, so he brought a whole bunch of bodyguards to help him buy.

"Don't think I'm bullying you. I never said we couldn't ask others for help. You could ask your friends to help you too, but since we've already started, it might be too late for them to come and help you, right? We have a total of three hours to sell, let's see who sells more."

Wang Sheng looked at the man with a smug expression, couldn't be more arrogant; he wanted exactly this effect.

How could Lin Yi not have thought of asking others to help him?

But probably only Wang Sheng himself could think of such a foolish method.

Lin Yi ignored Wang Sheng's provocation.

Even if Wang Sheng brought 100 people to help him, so what? If he couldn't sell them, they couldn't leave his hands; he certainly couldn't force sales, right?

Lin Yi first carefully examined the herbs.

These herbs were relatively easy to sell, mostly herbs that could be used at home.

For example, there were herbal ingredients for sour plum drinks, as well as some herbs that could be applied externally, and others for treating common ailments.

Of course, buying here would definitely be much cheaper than in those herbal medicine shops outside, so Lin Yi felt it was quite easy to sell.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look. All of the herbs we're selling here come from famous sources and are licensed by legitimate manufacturers, guaranteed to be without any issues. Everyone is welcome to take a look. I can assure you that our prices are definitely much cheaper than the average herbal medicine shop, and this opportunity is available only today."

Indeed, because of Lin Yi's last sentence, "only today," everyone immediately crowded around.

They believed that if it's only sold once, it must be a loss-making sale.

After all, if they sold too much later, they would not be able to make a profit. Wang Sheng was instantly dumbfounded.

What's going on?

Just now, there was no one at Lin Yi's, but now so many elderly ladies and gentlemen surged over, and even some young people.

No, he couldn't lose, he absolutely couldn't lose!

This was a matter of his dignity; how could he lose to Lin Yi?

Wang Sheng was extremely anxious; he further reduced his prices.

It didn't matter, although the unit price was lower than Lin Yi's, winning in volume in the end was also fine!

"Come and buy, folks, we're selling at a loss, our prices are definitely lower than those across the way. Don't miss out as you pass by!"

Wang Sheng, this guy, really doesn't get it, does he?

Setting the price so low on the spot, it'll disrupt the market.

Lin Yi watched him silently.

And the customers who had been buying from Lin Yi, without a single exception, all ran over to Wang Sheng's side.

"Are your prices really lower than the ones across the way? How do you sell? Tell us about it, don't just shout. If the goods we buy aren't right, we will come looking for you!"

After the customers arrived, they started asking all kinds of questions.

Wang Sheng was not adept at dealing with these people; he immediately stepped to the side and handed these matters over to his bodyguards.

All he had to do was sit beside and collect the profits. That was one way to do it.

But when these customers saw the guy who had just been shouting walk over to rest, they were also very annoyed.

What did this guy mean? Did he not take them, the customers, seriously? Handing them off to someone else, what was that all about?

"What's the deal with you, the owner? We've already come over to buy stuff, and what's with your attitude? Why aren't you coming over to serve us? Why do you need to rest over there? Handing us over to your employees, huh? Do you think we're not even worth talking to?"

One person voiced this concern, and the others began to shout out one after another.

They really disliked the owner's attitude towards them.

It seemed that the owner across the way had a better temper, and he took matters into his own hands.

This guy, it was clear he was just messing around, not taking them, the customers, seriously at all.

"What do you mean by my attitude? I've already dropped the prices so low. So what if I take a break for a while? Can't you just buy what you want? Why waste so much breath, what's it to me!"

Wang Sheng also disliked the way these common folk spoke to him.

What right did they have to yell at him like this, to not take him seriously at all?

He had already dropped the prices so low, why were they still making a fuss?

The customers, seeing the owner still acting arrogantly, decided to teach him a lesson.

It was only a few dollars difference; they could forgo that small advantage in search of better service.

Even though Lin Yi was a bit slower, he provided excellent service.

And just like that, the customers he had just started to gather instantly flocked to Lin Yi's side, something Lin Yi had already anticipated.

He wasn't acting like an owner now but as a service attendant on the outside.

How could one treat customers this way? Of course, they would be extremely dissatisfied.

Watching his shop that had been bustling just moments ago empty as the customers scurried over to Lin Yi's side, Wang Sheng froze, mouth agape.

What was going on? Why had this happened?

"Why are you running over there? Haven't I already dropped the prices so low? Why are you still leaving? Come back here, I can lower the prices even more."

Hearing the arrogant owner shouting, the customers were delighted; that's exactly what they wanted—to see him upset and regretful!

Who asked him to treat his customers like that just now?

Doesn't he know that the customer is always right? And yet he was so arrogant, not taking them into account.

Now he's had it, right? Tasted his own medicine?

The customers, as if they hadn't heard Wang Sheng speak at all, left him to dejectedly sit down on the ground. Wasn't he going to lose now? Why were these people so hard to please?

He had already made the prices so low, what was there to be dissatisfied with?

"Boss, they probably left because you were too arrogant just now, and they prefer Lin Yi's hands-on, much more amicable way of treating customers," said an attendant from behind, identifying Wang Sheng's problem. Wang Sheng gave him a glance.

What right did these commoners have, demanding he stoop to speak to them?

It was already quite something that he could sell them goods so cheaply, wasn't it?
