Inside the store, a billboard was hanging on the wall. On the board were pictures of all sorts of hamburgers, chicken wings, french fries and so on. Each one was tagged with its price and nutritional value.
In particular, the font size of the prices was very big.
"A yellow bun with some meat and vegetables in the middle costs five hundred thousand Spirit Stones of low quality?! This is insane!"
"The french fries are even more expensive. It is just potato, but he is selling it for the price of ten thousand Spirit Stones of low quality?! Wait a minute, each french fry costs ten thousand Spirit Stones of low quality…"
"And that 'Big Mac' is even more expensive than the french fries. Each one costs a million Spirit Stones of low quality!"
"My god! He really has no idea how to run a business! He only knows how to fight!"
…
Hearing this, Xu Que was not angry at all. He sat to the side with his legs crossed, lighting a cigarette and tapping the ash on a plate. The billboard also bore a few other words which read: 'No Smoking.'
The store was full of people, but no one dared to take a step forward and make an order, as everything was just so expensive.
"Oh, wait a moment, look over there!" a man suddenly yelled, pointing to the shop-sign.
"Look at the introduction next to the prices. The 'Grilled Chicken Burger' can help one recover immediately, and help him ascend into a higher stage… but it only works for someone who is in the Infant Transformation Stage, or at a lower stage than the Infant Transformation Stage."
"Holy sh*t! It that is true, this burger would be even more powerful than the Great Clarity Green Water Pill!"
"Nonsense! The Great Clarity Green Water Pill can help one exceed his own limits, and can be used many times. This burger can only be used once."
"And those french fries… With just one fry, you can increase the speed of your cultivation by two times in the span of one hour. That has the same function as the Soul Gathering Array."
"If this is true, then the price is actually very reasonable!"
"This cannot be true! Just think, we have never even heard about or seen this sort of food before."
"Yes, you are right. A bun with meat inside? A potato stick? It cannot have the same function as medicine does."
…
Besides, the prices were really high, so no one was willing to try anything.
But the written introductions were really alluring, especially for cultivators who were now experiencing a bottleneck in the development of their powers. They were desperate to ascend to a higher stage in a short time.
That was why the price of the Great Clarity Green Water Pill had gone up to sixty million Spirit Stones of low quality in the auction.
Now, one just needed to spend five hundred thousand Spirit Stones, and they could possibly enjoy the same effect.
"General Zhuge, what if I fail to get into a higher stage after I eat your food?" asked a middle-aged man, who was at level 2 of the Infant Transformation Stage.
"He is the master of the Liu family, a very influential family in the Imperial City. I never thought that he would come here alone."
"It is said that he has been in a bottleneck for thirty years, I think he might never enter the next stage in this life."
"I guess he would like to take this opportunity."
"Anyway, he should tell us what he will do if the food does not work."
…
All of a sudden, everyone stared at Xu Que.
Xu Que calmly put out his cigarette and took out a small plate. On the plate, there was a sentence, which read: 'We promise that if the products you buy are fake or defective, we will compensate you with ten times' the product's original value.'
Seeing this, people at present took a deep breath.
He promises that if the products we buy are fake or defective, he will compensate us with ten times' the product's original value?
Really?! If the burger which costs five hundred thousand Spirit Stones of low quality does not work, he will compensate us with five million?
"Can this burger really be that powerful?"
The master was a little hesitant. After all, five hundred million Spirit Stones of low quality was not a small amount of money. He had to think carefully before making any move.
Right at this moment, many more onlookers came.
"Do not be tricked by him! He must be lying!"
"Yes! No one would dare to ask for compensation from him if the burger does not have the effect he claims it does."
"You all know who he really is, you can do nothing about him…"
…
Hearing this, all people at present were in agreement.
Yes, even if the burger is fake, no one would dare to ask for compensation from him…
Bang!
Xu Que suddenly stood up from his chair and coldly looked at his audience. Then he changed into a shadow that darted amongst the crowd.
"Ah!"
"What are you doing?"
A few cultivators were dragged out and thrown onto the street.
Xu Que then stepped on their chests so hard that the ground beneath them broke. The next minute, they all began to spit out blood and passed out.
"You are really audacious! Do you really think I am a big softie?" Xu Que sneered.
Then he walked slowly back to his store.
Seeing this, people backed off and got out of his way.
They realized that Xu Que was still the old Xu Que, who was a cruel devil.
"Get out. You guys can't even afford a burger of five hundred million Spirit Stones. Get out of my store!" Xu Que began to push people out.
Everyone felt furious.
How dare you despise us?!
Yes, we are not rich, so what?!
We are still human beings, how dare you treat us like this?!
You can not push us out like this!
But they all knew that Xu Que was very cruel, so no one really made any complaints.
The master of the Liu Family sneered. "General Zhuge, since you are running a business, you should at least treat us equally. If you want to make money, you should not behave like this!"
Xu Que frowned. "You know nothing! This is called 'Marketing', a concept put forward by Stanislavski, the Murong Pooper Master!"
People at present were stunned.
Stanislavski? the Murong Pooper Master?
The master of the Liu Family also shook his head. "General Zhuge, as a businessman, you should always be honest! You said that if the products we buy are fake or defective, you will compensate us with ten times the product's original value, do you really mean it?"
"Of course I mean it! Buy or don't buy, it's your choice." Xu Que shrugged.
The master said loudly. "Fine! Here are five hundred thousand Spirit Stones of low quality, give me a Grilled Chicken Burger please!"
The landlord threw his money heavily on the desk.
Xu Que did not even look at him. Instead he pointed to the counter. "Go to the counter and make your order."
