Chapter 69 Chapter 69
The 1,298 little golden dragons were like a small tacit understanding between Ning Su and the monster next door. After the gifts were given, Ning Su felt relieved.
Therefore, when Lu Cao came to Ning Su to clarify things with a wronged look on his face, Ning Su just said "Oh".
Ning Su realized that it was Lu Cao who made the mistake and that he himself was misled. He was depressed for a long time and did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Being in the game, one is indeed not as clear-headed as an outsider.
"In that case, why don't you go out?"
Even if you understand the reason, the same problem still exists.
After updating its cognition, Lucao also gained a new understanding of the ecology of its entire demon country. Hearing this, it thought for a moment and said, "Perhaps, it's because we have been away from the outside world for too long."
Over the past thousands of years, traces of the demons have gradually disappeared, while humans have continued to build skyscrapers. The environment outside the forest has changed with each passing day, but they are living the same life.
The demon country is both a protection and a hindrance to them.
It turns out that what has been preventing them from leaving this area is not the Dragon King who used it as an excuse, but themselves.
The more Lu Cao thought about it, the more crazy he became, to the point that the evil spirit in his body started to run rampant. In human terms, this was a sign of going astray.
Ning Su: “…”
What is this little demon thinking about?
How could I let myself get depressed?
Fortunately, although Ning Su was somewhat unfamiliar with the situation of Lu Cao, he had learned a lot of knowledge from She Ji and Jin in order to transform from his original form to a human form.
Seeing this, and facing the changes in the deer grass, he quickly helped to protect the law.
As if feeling the protection of Ning Su's demonic power, Lu Cao quickly stabilized from the collapse of the demonic power, and then entered a state of meditation and cultivation.
Ning Su was shocked again.
No, does this little demon trust him so much?
You have to know that in scenes like the cultivation of the demon clan, one can only enter a state of meditation in front of a demon that is very close to him in his subconscious mind.
But he and Lucao had only met twice!
After practicing for about a whole day, when Lu Cao woke up, he felt refreshed all over and the bottleneck that had been bothering him for a long time was broken.
When he woke up, Ning Su was sitting beside him reading a book, obviously protecting it.
Deer Grass's eyes were filled with tears: It turns out that Dragon King still loves it.
However, just when Lu Cao was about to give Ning Su a hug, Ning Su checked the time and said, "I'm glad you're awake. I have to get off work."
In order to accompany Lu Cao, Ning Su has worked overtime for three hours.
Lucao: “Ah?”
This time, it was really tearful.
After clarifying the misunderstanding about the neighboring demon country with Lucao, both sides turned a disaster into a blessing and temporarily reached a friendly agreement through communication.
After all, the other party is the ancient dragon demon country, and they have a special connection with each other, so Ning Su put more thought into it.
But as to how the Demon Country will develop next, whether it will continue to be closed or willing to come out, the relationship between the two sides has not reached that point, so Ning Su is not in a position to interfere.
In short, we need to think carefully about how to get along with the neighboring demon country in the future.
Fortunately, as long as there is a foundation of positive, harmonious and friendly communication, the rest is just a matter of time.
Putting aside the affairs of the neighboring demon country for the time being, Ning Su took advantage of his free time to inspect the situation of the Xiaojinlong Company.
In addition, he also needs to pay the balance for his little golden dragon pillow -
Yes, as a competent idol, Ning Su once again spent money to work.
Although the monster next door set a very high price to order the little golden dragon, Ning Su stopped him and only told the Little Golden Dragon Company to charge the cost price.
Ning Su plans to make up the rest himself.
After all, this is Ning Su’s gift to the monster next door.
But who would have thought that when he arrived at Xiaojinlong Company with the intention of making up the balance, the manager in charge of these businesses did not want his money.
"Ahem, Lord Ning, there were some unexpected events."
There must be a reason why he didn't want Ning Su's money.
The demon in charge had an evasive look and looked very suspicious.
"What happened?" Ning Su's heart skipped a beat when he saw this.
"…Well, we produced a few extra pillows due to some coincidences a while ago."
Ning Su: “So?”
"We made a lot of money." When saying this, the head demon blinked guiltily.
This demon in charge apparently made a lot of money, so much so that he did not hesitate to act first and report later.
It turns out that Xiaojinlong Company has found its own path, and there have been some "accidents" along the way.
Xiaojinlong Company was originally positioned as an agricultural company. In the beginning, after taking the order from the neighboring company, it did not know how to do it.
But considering that doing business is not easy, I can't waste this opportunity without trying it, so I found a few clever little demons to try it together.
There are bound to be failures in attempts. In addition to the pillow that looked nothing like it in the first place, there were also some imperfect products with stitching flaws and a small number of wrong colors.
These defective products also have costs, but because they have not undergone the final quality inspection, they can only be put aside.
The little demon in the sales department suddenly had an idea and said, "Why not give it away?"
Since there is no way to sell it, it’s okay to give it as a gift, which is better than leaving it aside waiting to be recycled.
"Okay." This is also a good way to maintain customer relationships.
Therefore, in the remaining orders from Xiaojinlong Company, in addition to the agricultural products carefully prepared by the little demons, a fresh pillow was also included.
Customers have different reactions to this gift. Some think it is free and they can just keep it; others think it is unnecessary.
"Just focus on your main business. As long as the fruit tastes good, I will still buy it."
These customers felt that Xiao Jinlong's actions were an act of unnecessary flattery.
There are not many defective products, probably only a few dozen, and the effect after sending them out is minimal.
Just when the Xiaojinlong Company didn't care and was still hesitating about what to do next after finishing this batch of goods, suddenly, this Xiaojinlong pillow went viral on the Internet.
The popularity of the pillow is due to the experience shared by an internet celebrity.
It turned out that this internet celebrity had been recommended by Xiaojinlong Agricultural Products Company and ordered a large batch of fruits online.
Because the other party's purchase volume was large and the sales volume was sufficient, Xiaojinlong Company did not hesitate to include a Xiaojinlong pillow as a free item when shipping.
The young lady didn’t care much about this extra gift, as she had so many pillows at home that she had no place to put them.
But because the little golden dragon pillow was really cute, the other party put it on the back seat of the car.
The next day, Sunday, the young lady took a long trip and picked up a friend of a friend. The friend was a little strange that day and didn't say a word when he got on the car.
After seeing the little golden dragon pillow, I was shocked, as if my soul had been scared out of my body.
The other party trembled for a long time, and finally asked cautiously: "Why do you have this pillow? Do you recognize it?"
The young lady was confused by the question and casually said, "A friend gave it to me." Then the friend of the friend remained silent.
After she dropped the person off at the destination, it was only after a while that she realized something was wrong.
Her friend obviously doesn't look like that.
Then how come she let the other person get in the car without any suspicion?
The mysterious incident at night scared the girl to death. After returning home, she checked with her friends and found out that she had been scammed!
The person her friend asked her to give a ride to never waited for her!
After reviewing the situation like this, the young lady was really scared to death - what if the other party had bad intentions, wouldn't her safety be at risk?
In any case, it was her luck that she escaped. After thinking about it carefully, the young lady noticed the key point.
The suspicious person left after seeing the little golden dragon pillow.
Moreover, the other party seemed to be a little afraid of this thing.
Since there was no evidence of the "suspected distress" throughout the whole process and most of the plot was just her own guesswork, the young lady could only post it online as a joke after complaining about it with her friends.
"Family, who would believe this! I was actually saved by a pillow!"
Since the plot was too bizarre, netizens naturally didn't believe it. Even her fans thought it was a bit too outrageous and tactfully advised her:
"Bao, are you too tired from work? How about taking a rest?"
Why is a nice girl talking nonsense?
Passersby laughed at her, fans were puzzled, she was questioned repeatedly, and even the young lady herself was confused.
As time passed, her memory of the shock that night became blurred, and she couldn't help but ask herself: Did she remember it wrong?
Just when she was doubting herself and was about to delete the post, a new reply appeared under the post.
"Shit! It's Master Ning's pillow!"
Lord Ning? Lord Ning what?
Is this some famous person?
Just when the young lady was about to search online to find out what was going on, the person who replied deleted his reply and added a more serious version.
"You are in danger most likely because you met a hitchhiker. Luckily you are lucky to have this pillow. Although you don't understand what I am talking about, I suggest you keep it well. This thing can be a family heirloom."
Is it that magical?
But because the other party's reply was very serious and it was a rare answer that showed trust in what she said, the young lady thought about it again and again and decided to leave the post.
At the same time, on a forum belonging to monsters, this reposted diary became a hot topic.
"House demons, don't say I didn't give you a chance. Don't you want to have a little golden dragon pillow that looks just like Lord Ning's original form?"
In almost a moment, the replies came pouring in.
"Damn, they were made by that Little Golden Dragon Company! It's said that the W City Monster Bureau is in charge of them."
"In other words... this is what Master Ning allowed?"
"I'm not buying this!"
"Original poster, I give you a reward. You didn't keep such a good thing for yourself, but posted it here. You have a conscience."
Soon, the number of shares of this post increased rapidly.
In several Xiaoyao groups, everyone is discussing this newly released pillow——
This is the version approved by Lord Ning himself! Just think about it, many years later, when their cubs encounter problems and need to exchange money, this pillow will be hard currency.
"No, why mention money? This pillow is already very cute - it's a dragon cub!"
In addition to the pragmatists, there are naturally also Ning Su's crazy fans.
But no matter what kind of faction it was, they all found the ordering link of Xiaojinlong Company given by the OP and placed an order.
Xiao Jinlong Company originally wanted to temporarily close down and did not even purchase any more raw materials. Suddenly, it found that it had a surge of orders and was stunned for a moment.
If the order from the monster next door is just an introduction, then what these orders represent is all money!
Time waits for no monster, and we also know that human manufacturing’s ability to copy is unique. If human merchants discover this business opportunity, they will probably miss it.
Therefore, between the two options of "discussing with Mr. Ning first" or "direct production", the managers of Xiaojinlong Company decisively chose the latter.
"I'll be responsible if anything goes wrong!"
If Lord Ning was angry, it would hug Lord Ning's legs and cry.
Thanks to the decisiveness of the managers, Xiaojinlong Company took over these orders and worked overtime to produce them, successfully completing most of the orders before humans discovered the business opportunities.
Of course, at this time, human manufacturers also noticed the hot sales of the little golden dragon pillow.
But at this time, Xiaojinlong Company had completed the iteration of its products - they added some simple magical herbs into the pillow core.
This is something that human manufacturers would like to imitate but cannot easily obtain.
Similarly, this is also the "core competitiveness" that Mr. Ning once mentioned.
With the addition of these spiritual herbs that can calm the mind and soothe the spirit, their little golden dragon pillows are also easy to sell in the human world.
Although there is no marketing or promotion, there are people who bought this pillow by chance and found it useful and spontaneously recommended it to others.
"This pillow is very useful. I had an argument with a client and was so angry that I wanted to quit. After hugging this pillow for a while, I calmed down."
"Why would I quit my job for a client? They don't pay me any salary or five insurances or one housing fund."
There are so many similar posts that some people mistakenly believe that Xiaojinlong Company is buying marketing.
In short, due to the fact that sales have also been opened up in the human world, the Little Golden Dragon Pillow ranked first in the "baby's favorite pillow" ranking during the past hot selling season.
Xiaojinlong Company was even officially invited by a certain platform to participate in the Double Eleven event in the near future.
Ning Su: “…”
My neck is itchy and my head is about to grow out.
After spending some time sorting out the logic behind the hot sales of Little Golden Dragon, Ning Su's first reaction was not to worry about his ugly appearance being publicized everywhere, but to be pleased and even amazed at the skills of the managers of Little Golden Dragon.
This series of decisions was unexpected.
Especially the act of adding dried spiritual herbs into the pillow was something Ning Su had never expected.
"What should customers do if the spiritual herbs lose their effects?"
When confessing to Ning Su, the management demon of Xiaojinlong Company was a little worried, but who knew that the feedback he got was beyond his expectations.
"We got replacement cores for a third of the price."
The Little Golden Dragon sells for 199 yuan, while the pillow core only costs 60 yuan, which is of course the cost of the spiritual herbs.
"Not bad." Ning Su nodded - he even thought of a way to obtain sustainable profits.
The management monster clearly felt the appreciation in Ning Su's tone and was a little stunned.
"Do a good job." For some reason, Ning Su felt happy.
The hot sales of the little golden dragons naturally made him very happy, but what seemed to make him happier than making money was the abilities displayed by the little demons in this series of events.
This undoubtedly confirms what he has always thought - the reason why the little demons have a hard time is not because of poor qualifications, but because of the lack of opportunities and platforms.
When they have a direction and a path, they will spontaneously live their lives well.
The management demon of the Little Golden Dragon Company didn't know what this noble demon was thinking, but when he saw that the other party was happy, he couldn't help but laugh.
In order to catch up with the work, I really forced myself to think of solutions every minute and every second during this period of time.
Fortunately, the results were good.
What's even more wonderful is that all their efforts were seen and recognized by Lord Ning, which is something they never dared to imagine.
Due to the refusal of the management demon, Ning Su's final payment was never paid. On the contrary, he received a large amount of endorsement fees.
However, although he was sure not to pursue Xiaojinlong Company's decision to act without prior approval, he also made a request.
Add style.
"I think it's a bit boring to have only a little golden dragon pillow, isn't it?"
Soon, consumers discovered that Xiaojinlong Company soon came up with a new style - a black turtle.
Unlike the little golden dragon pillow, this black tortoise doll focuses on comfort and companionship.
It is natural that there is a process of opening up the market for new products, but Xiaojinlong Company found that soon, the orders for black tortoise dolls also increased, and most of the consumers who bought these dolls came from City X.
The monsters of the ancient Xiliang Monster Kingdom: This is their monster king, how can they not support him?
Some time ago, the Monster Bureau of City X happened to have some friction with the old monsters of the ancient Xiliang Monster Kingdom. Seeing that the situation was not going well, suddenly, with the hot sales of black tortoise dolls, the situation suddenly stabilized.
Deputy Director Lin of City X didn't know the reason at first, but after some analysis, he realized what had happened.
After further investigation, I found out that this small Jinlong company originally sold Jinlong pillows, and I soon realized that it was closely related to Ning Su.
“As expected of him!”
Come to think of it, when Ning Su came to City X, he was just a newcomer in the unit, but now he is a director on equal footing with himself.
Thinking of this, Deputy Director Lin couldn't help but sigh.
As a small episode in this matter, Tang Erbao called angrily: "Aren't we the best in the world?"
Why do you only sell black turtles and not foxes?
Ning Su: “…”
OK.
Considering that the office APP in W City still relies on Tang Erbao’s company for research and development, Ning Su notified Xiaojinlong Company to add another style.
When the fox dolls came out, Tang Songzhi generously placed a large order, and then gave one to every employee, partner, relative and friend in the company.
This move naturally caused a lot of discussion in the business community.
At this time, Tang Songzhi was worried that Ning Su would think too much, so he called him specifically.
It’s not that he didn’t support the Little Golden Dragon pillow before, but it was really out of stock and couldn’t be bought.
He definitely had no intention of favoring either of his two younger brothers, Tang Erbao and Ning Su.
Ning Su: “…”
Thank you so much.
No one expected that Xiaojinlong Company found its own track by accident and earned enough money to continue the company's development.
As the profits of Xiaojinlong Company increased, the Monster Bureau also received feedback from Xiaojinlong Company——
A considerable sum of money was deposited into the account.
With the arrival of this money, the long-stalled student loans can finally be disbursed. At the same time, the long-delayed Xiaoyao School will also begin construction.
However, when discussing the details of the construction of the monster school, new obstacles arose.
Compared with many factors such as enrollment, teachers, and curriculum, site selection is a problem that needs to be solved urgently but is difficult to solve.
There is no other reason. It is because although the economy of W City is not at the forefront, it has a large population and an old urban area. Even in the suburbs, there are traces of human beings.
It is better for the little demons to expose themselves less when they go to school.
The Yao Bureau selected several locations, but none of them were satisfactory. Either there were too many people or the land was too expensive. Moreover, it involved the approval of relevant departments.
"I have an idea, but I don't know if it will work." Ning Su said after thinking for a moment.
Director Lu raised his eyebrows: "Hurry up and tell me."
"I want to put the school on the boundary between the city and the neighboring demon country." It was where they put the bulletin board not long ago.
When Ning Su said this, the eyes of the other monsters in the monster bureau lit up.
What a great place to think about!
First, the terrain there is flat and the roads are wide, which is convenient for construction. Second, it is well concealed. For the people and monsters in W City, the forest is a restricted area and they usually don't go there.
Finally, even though this place is a little remote, since it is a boarding school, it will not affect the little demons’ classes.
The only thing that worries the monster the most is the attitude of the neighboring monster country.
Will they agree?
After all, building a demon country on the border is a signal, and I don’t know if the other party will be angry.
"Let me ask." Ning Su said.
Then he took out his cell phone and started writing a message.
Other demons: “?”
Although it is true that this is a new era, is it okay to use this method to contact the neighboring demon country?
As if aware of his colleagues' curiosity, Ning Su explained, "I added a monster next door on WeChat."
Not long ago, Ning Su sent a gift to the monster next door, and one of the monsters wrote back a long letter. Because the letter was a bit corny, Ning Su didn't finish reading it, but added the other party's contact information.
In the letter, according to this fan, it is considered an elder of the Demon Country and can take care of some of the affairs of the Demon Country.
Therefore, Ning Su asked it this time.
After sending the message, Ning Su thought he would have to wait for a while before getting a reply, but who would have thought that the other party would reply to his message immediately.
It’s as if the other person carries his cell phone with him everywhere.
"Of course! We're more than welcome to do so."
"May I ask when Lord Longjun will send people to do the construction? We can help as well."
At first, Ning Su thought that this was just a simple courtesy, but he didn't expect that when he arrived at the designated location the next day, not only had the ground been leveled, but the surrounding vegetation that was difficult to clean had also been cleaned up.
In addition, the other party also put up a banner that read: "Good luck to the opening of W City No. 1 Middle School!"
Even the existence of the monster must not be exposed.
Secretary Du, who came with Ning Su to investigate: "?"
Aren’t these monsters next door difficult to deal with?
You weren't like this before!
This flattering look is really chilling!
With the cooperation of the monsters next door and no one to disturb them, the construction team hired by the Monster Bureau started work quickly.
At the same time, Jackal accidentally exposed his identity and got rid of his pursuers like a stray dog. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became.
It was clearly doing bad things, so why did it end up in such a situation?
When it thought of the pretentious and extremely annoying Lucao and the elders of the tribe, it felt so angry that its teeth itched.
No, it wants revenge.
Even though the higher-ups don't allow it to reveal its whereabouts, simple revenge is a must.
How can I achieve the goal of revenge without having to show up myself?
Jackal Jilang remembered the tactics he learned from humans some time ago - public opinion warfare.
Thinking that the reason the Demon Kingdom continued to live a good life was because there was no human disturbance, Jackal Erlang suddenly had an idea.
A moment later, a post was published in the forum with the highest traffic in human history.
"The undeveloped miracle forest in W City, 90% of the locals have never been there"
Although Jackal Erlang has an average IQ, he has a talent for taking photos. Before, he used his mobile phone to take pictures of the Demon Kingdom. Due to his abundant spiritual energy, the pictures he took were first-rate.
The plants are lush and green, and the mist is thick, just like a fairyland.
Sure enough, as soon as Chai Erlang’s post was published, it attracted a lot of attention.
"Forest of Miracles? I'm from W City too, how come I've never heard of it?"
"The original poster took really beautiful photos. Tomorrow is the weekend, so I will take my family to see it."
There are skeptics, and of course there are believers. Short-distance tours around the local area are very popular nowadays, and many people are jealous.
Jackal Jiro saw the human's enthusiastic response and smiled smugly.
With these humans outing in the autumn, it doesn't believe that the monsters in the Monster Kingdom can sit still.
If any monsters harm humans, I’m afraid even the Monster Bureau won’t be able to protect them.
Jackal Erlang's plan was vicious and unexpected, and he himself was obviously very satisfied with it. After posting the message, he turned off his phone and waited quietly for good news from the front.
However, after waiting for one day and two days, there was still no news.
Chai Erlang was so shocked that he bought a phone card with data before he could log into the forum.
Unexpectedly, its post has been blocked——
The reason given by the moderator is that the recommendation does not match the reality.
Jackal Erlang: "?"
No, this photo was taken by it itself, and it has also been to the Demon Country itself, so how can it be inconsistent with reality?
Furious and trying to find his post back, he began to climb the ladder.
It turned out that on the second day after it posted the message, some humans went to investigate.
However, the information he obtained was completely different from what he knew.
"The author of this post is an idiot. There's no such thing as a mysterious forest. They're building a school nearby! I just spread out the picnic mat and heard this clanging noise."
This feeling is amazing.
In order to show that what he said was correct, the host also uploaded a picture.
In the picture, there is a bright red banner: "Congratulations on the opening of W City No. 1 Middle School!"
