Chapter 117 Hand Warmers and Beast Taming 2
Elina and her group set off.
"It's late at night. Doing this will really drain your energy, don't you know?"
Shirley muttered in the dark night, which seemed particularly empty in the quiet night.
Just as she was about to ask her friend the mage to cast a [Fire Spell] to illuminate the night ahead, she was blocked by Elena.
Elena raised her eyebrows and picked up the light, "Look carefully."
She quietly grasped the Electricity Magic Stone. With a click, the lights came on. The lights were bright, and the system alerted:
[Because this light is closest to daylight, your spirit value is slowly rising.]
She looked proudly at the stunned crowd and threw the Philosopher's Stone under the base of the lamp with a smooth and seamless movement.
"Let's go."
She took the lead and walked quickly in front.
The others were so shocked that they immediately followed, chattering one after another: "Oh my God, Alina, when did you become a mage?"
"Could it be the effect of the magic stone? That's not right. Even if it's an electric magic stone, it can't emit such a bright light as a fire magic stone. What on earth is this?"
"This thing is even more powerful than forbidden techniques. How did you do it? If you learn black magic, be careful of the backlash!"
The audience chattered like sparrows, surrounding her in the center, and she was very satisfied.
She thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention, so she casually waved her hands, feigning indifference. "Well, it's just Ankang Town merchandise. I was one of the first customers, so it's normal you didn't know. This isn't black magic, nor is it because I'm a wizard. It's science."
Then, Alina began to explain in detail. Several people surrounded her and moved her to the center, listening with great interest:
"So Ankang Town does have some real skills."
"Yeah, that's good. At least it won't be a wasted trip. Even if we're not satisfied with the clothes, we can still pick out some lamps and hand warmers, so it's worth the trip."
"What you said makes me want to travel to Ankang Town in person to see if the town is really as prosperous as you said!"
“…”
Looking at her companions sighing, Elena secretly raised the corners of her lips.
A hundred fake moves, just to lure them into the trap.
Only Shirley took in the whole scene, frowning slightly, as if lost in thought.
Elena is not a studious person, so how does she know so much about this?

Inside the clothing store.
Nicole was sitting at the front desk, personally counting sales and purchasing matters, preparing to send them to Lin Muqiu.
Seeing Elena coming over, she raised her eyebrows and they gave each other a knowing look.
It turns out that publicity through acquaintances is the most effective.
Although she had to pay Alina an additional 30% of her income.
But once people come, the success rate can reach at least 90%. It is better to open than not to open.
Apart from anything else, the lighting was specially designed, and it looked particularly soft and beautiful on people. The full-length mirror was also fine-tuned to make people look thinner and taller. No woman could resist this temptation.
These were all the "big gift packages" that Lin Muqiu personally delivered yesterday.
These people are blessed.
Nicole thought silently in her heart.
Sure enough, those ladies were immediately shocked by the luxurious atmosphere of the store.
The luxurious Baroque store design is so exquisite that even the overhead lights are inlaid with diamonds and sparkle brightly, not to mention the dazzling array of styles and well-equipped rest and service areas.
They were madly praising in their hearts:
“It’s amazing, this store has such a great aesthetic!”
"70% off? Really 70% off? I'm making a killing."
"I have a feeling this store will be a trendsetter. It's tailor-made for me!"
“…”
Nicole secretly observed all this and smiled.
It’s tailor-made for you. After all, it was carefully designed by Lin Muqiu and her mother, just for your money.
But she just smiled silently and said nothing.
So she gave her men a look.
The subordinate understood immediately and stepped forward to greet Elena and her group, speaking succinctly: "Whether it's custom-made down jackets or limited edition down jackets, they are all of excellent quality! You can try this one. Your petite and cute figure is just right for this apricot short dress. It's made of high-quality cashmere, which is super warm. Absolutely amazing! And this one is also good, it's even lighter, you can try it..."
Once you try, you can't escape.
Sure enough, those ladies tried on one piece of clothing after another, and kept observing themselves in front of the full-length mirror, their eyes shining.
Women all like beauty, especially in mainland China, where slender waists are considered beautiful.
They worked so hard to lose that little bit of weight, but it turns out that cool-toned dresses are warm and fashionable, making them look 20 pounds thinner!
The diamonds on the edge are sparkling.
They kept changing their postures, with indescribable joy in their eyes.
The shop assistant next to her praised her crazily, "Madam, you are so beautiful, and your charm is still there!"
The ladies were moved.
Her husband had said that they were old and their skin was not in good condition. Humph, this dress made her feel that her husband was simply blind!
Look at the beautiful girls! It's as if they have returned to their youth.
Beautiful, intellectual, and graceful.
They couldn't help but stare in amazement.
Nicole watched secretly, clenching her fists.
Sure enough, everything went as planned.
She thought of what Lin Muqiu said to her:
"Since cotton-padded jackets in the north are mainly for warmth and are quite popular among regular customers, it may also mean a lack of innovation and old-fashioned styles. Moreover, cotton-padded jackets are bulky and tiring. Ankang Town should find a new way."
"So we don't sell warmth, but rather affordable luxury, ideas, and design. Keeping warm is what you should do, but beauty is priceless."
"We want to pride ourselves on offering a wide variety of styles, ease and convenience, and deep discounts, so that our customers can feel the greatest sense of value."
Sure enough, after hesitating for a moment, the ladies walked towards her and said, "Are you the owner? I really like these two light blue dresses. Can you make them cheaper?"
Nicole was ecstatic in her heart, but she remained calm on the surface. "We don't accept bargaining. Madam, your beauty is priceless! Besides, this is already a very low discount."
The ladies were very moved.
Yes, youth is priceless!
The subordinate immediately started playing the good cop, "Yes, buy it now while it's cheap! You're one of the first customers so you get a discount. When the price goes up later, who knows how much more expensive it will be!"
When they heard the words “take advantage of the bargain now”, their originally wavering hearts were completely moved.
Their hands smoothed the clothes over and over again, as if they were caressing a newborn baby, reluctant to let go.
Even though we know we shouldn’t engage in revenge consumption, why do we feel so comfortable and happy when we put on clothes?
There must be something magical about this shop, they thought.
The subordinate added at the right moment: "Ladies, if you spend 1,000 copper coins or more in our store, you will receive a beautiful diamond lamp as a gift."
As for the battery (electric magic stone), you naturally have to buy it yourself.
Well, that will be another income then.
But the subordinate did not say it out loud, but just smiled and said: "Opportunity is fleeting, and once lost, it will never come back."
At this moment, the ladies are already itching to buy, buy!
Such a magical magic, of course we have to support it!
It was not until their subordinates' hands were stuffed full of hoodies, earmuffs and warm mini-dresses, which were about to overflow like a flood, that they woke up from their dream.
Oh, I really bought a lot.
Only Shirley had nothing in her hands. Seeing this scene, she closed her eyes silently.
Silence, too silent.
Is this store toxic? The more I look at it, the more it looks like a scammer who specializes in the industry and is specifically targeting them!

In the north, the down jacket business is developing in full swing, and in Ankang Town, a new round of animal husbandry driven by Lin Muqiu is also developing rapidly.
In the wild, a group of hunters looked at Lin Muqiu with envy as he harvested the wild animals that fell into the trap one after another, feeling indescribable envy.
At this moment, Lord Lin's hunting results are almost catching up with a company. He has a weakened version of the fire-breathing turkey, a weakened version of the ice-frozen horse, a weakened version of the night-hunting crow... everything you can think of.
Look at these ones, so strong and cute, and they are all cubs, they must be worth a lot of money!
They blew their numb noses hard and dug up the trap they had set, feeling embarrassed.
Damn, how did you catch a mouse?
The team members encouraged themselves:
"You can't rush it. You have to take your time hunting and it depends on luck."
"Winter also has its advantages. The attributes of animals are all weakened, so there's no need to worry about danger, and there's no need to kill wild animals on the spot to prevent them from attacking. This way, the animal survival rate is high, and some of the cubs can be used as companion pets and sold to Lord Lin. You can get a lot of money then."
"As long as we can catch prey, it's a profit! Hang in there!"
These people are like calves, full of energy and hope for the future.
Then, they looked at their companions and their minds collapsed.
While one's own failure is bearable, a friend's success is more heartbreaking.
How come my friend caught so many? Isn't he a novice hunter?
Comparing yourself to others will make you feel thief!
At this moment, Elizabeth's husband was holding a half-dead bouncing rabbit in his left hand and half of a struggling and howling wolf in his right hand, and he was ecstatic.
I heard rabbits have a strong reproductive capacity, and wolves can be tamed into companion pets. The most important thing is the wife* and the animal taming skills...
Maybe they can also open domestication shops or breeding shops, so that they don’t have to worry about wild animals hurting people in winter, it is very safe.
This is an opportunity.
What's more, he and his wife started their business by selling beef jerky. It would be better if they could achieve self-sufficiency in raw materials. Otherwise, the soaring meat prices would be unbearable.
This is also the purpose of his hunting, isn't it?
Once you are moved, your thoughts will come flooding in like a tide.
He no longer hesitated and ran home quickly.
