Chapter 297: Understand in Seconds
Although Diao Xinyan felt that she had already visited the place, she could not resist Mengna's insistence on taking her around again, so Diao Xinyan had no choice but to follow her.
The time was good at this time, the sun was shining on my body, it was warm, and the shops on the street were lined up and very bustling.
The hawkers’ cries could be heard one after another, and there was a wide variety of goods on display.
But for Diao Xinyan, this is not surprising at all. Where has she not seen these things?
I've seen all the rare ones, let alone the one in front of me.
She was a little lazy and obviously not very interested.
Seeing this, Mengna smiled mysteriously: "Sister Xinyan, I will take you to a place that you have never been to. The things sold there are things you have never seen outside."
"Really? Is there something in this world that I haven't seen?" From this sentence, it can be seen that Diao Xinyan doesn't believe it at all.
Mona took her straight to the "pangolin mud brick".
When Diao Xinyan saw this shop, she felt puzzled. How could these mud bricks be sold?
Can't the villagers just make this thing themselves by mixing some mud?
Can this be sold?
Now, Mona brought her to the store again. Diao Xinyan frowned slightly and looked at Mona with a puzzled look on her face: "Mona, why did you bring me here? They just sell mud bricks here, nothing special."
Mengna blinked mysteriously, took Diao Xinyan's hand and walked towards the store: "Sister Xinyan, don't underestimate this store, just go in and take a look and you will know."
As soon as I stepped into the store, a short old man with a white beard came out. He was so old, but seemed a little shy and embarrassed to see people.
Mengna knew the social phobia of the Pangolin Clan, so she said directly: "Uncle, no need to entertain us, we can just take a look ourselves."
The old man with white beard seemed relieved, a grateful smile appeared on his face, he nodded slightly, then stepped aside, sat quietly in the corner, observing them from the corner of his eyes from time to time.
"You seem to be quite familiar with him?" Diao Xinyan asked.
Mona smiled and said, "It's not that I'm familiar with the uncle, but all of their clan are like this, some of them are socially anxious."
"Social phobia? What does that mean?"
"It means that the uncle is not very good at dealing with people. When he is in a crowded place or facing strangers, he will feel nervous, uneasy, and even afraid to communicate with others."
"There are people like this?" Diao Xinyan really didn't notice it.
But it's also true that, given her status as the eldest daughter of the Diao family, those people with social phobias can't even approach her.
Feeling a little curious, I looked at her a few more times. I didn't expect that just these few glances would make her even more embarrassed and uneasy, as if she wanted to find a hole to bury herself.
Diao Xinyan was suddenly confused. Could someone like this be recruited as a store manager?
Could this be his house?
When Diao Xinyan asked, Mengna said, "No, it belongs to their tribe. It's written on the sign, pangolin mud brick."
Isn't it to take care of the minorities? Diao Xinyan thought with some doubt.
"Puchi..." Mengna burst out laughing, "Sister Xinyan, you don't think this shop sells mud bricks and look down on their mud bricks, do you? You are wrong. Let me tell you, their mud bricks are very famous in this area, and many people are scrambling to buy them. If you are not an acquaintance of mine, you can cut in line, but you may not be able to grab the order."
Diao Xinyan looked at Mengna as if she was looking at a fool.
Without explaining, Mengna took Diao Xinyan to a sample and handed it to her: "Take a closer look and see how this mud brick is different from ordinary mud bricks."
Mud bricks are mud bricks. At most they may be made with some patterns. What's the difference?
However, when Diao Xinyan's eyes fell on the mud brick, she found that the mud brick in front of her seemed a little different from the mud bricks she saw in daily life. There seemed to be a faint halo flowing on it.
Could she have seen it wrong? !
Take a closer look.
Sure enough, she was not mistaken, it really existed.
When I touched it again, I was even more shocked.
This luster, this feel... Why does it feel smoother and smoother than the best blue bricks she has ever seen? !
"Sister Xinyan, you have also learned martial arts, you can use your dagger to test its hardness."
Diao Xinyan:? ? ? ?
Diao Xinyan:! ! ! !
Diao Xinyan swiftly pulled out the dagger from her calf and stabbed it into the mud brick, leaving only a scratch on the brick.
She widened her eyes in disbelief. Wasn't this mud brick too hard? ! You know, her dagger was made of fine steel and was extremely sharp. Normally, it could cut through iron like mud. But facing this seemingly ordinary mud brick, it was so powerless.
"This...what is this mud brick made of?"
Meng Na looked at her surprised expression with a smug smile on her face: "Sister Xinyan, I told you that the mud bricks here are special. These mud bricks are not made of ordinary mud. Instead, the Pangolin Clan uses a special process to combine a variety of rare minerals with mud and refine them over a long period of time."
Of course, I can’t tell you the real recipe.
In order to sell her Pangolin brand mud bricks, she had no choice but to tell a small lie.
Diao Xinyan looked at the mud brick in her hand again and felt very fortunate that she had accompanied Mengna on the trip to give her face, otherwise she would have almost missed it.
Mengna continued, "Sister Xin, you can buy a few pieces to try first. If you think they are good, come back and place an order. Whether it is for swords and guns, or water and fire, Pangolin brand mud bricks are very famous. Ordinary blue bricks can't compare to them."
"Since you said so, I will definitely give it a try." Diao Xinyan laughed. "You are advertising for the Pangolin Tribe like this. Could it be that they gave you some kind of bribe?"
Since it was given to her, Diao Xinyan wouldn't mind. After all, she had traveled all over the country with her father, but had never encountered such magical mud bricks.
If this thing is shipped to certain places, it will make a fortune.
Mengna also laughed and said, "Then Sister Xinyan is wrong. Pangolin didn't give me any benefits, but my mother is one of the owners of Wanhuihui."
Diao Xinyan understood immediately. As the boss, it must be because the industry she invested in had developed. Only when the industry developed could she make more money in the future.
No wonder Mona was so active in writing to her and urging her to come here.
She thought the Pangolin brand mud bricks were already a treasure, but unexpectedly Mona took her to another store - Monkey Wine.
The owner of this shop has a pointed face and looks like a bad guy, but unexpectedly, Mona is quite polite to him. She smiled and asked for his "signature wine".
He said that if the deal was done, he would give them monkey wine as a gift, which would be a big deal.
"Since they are guests brought by Miss Meng, they must be honored guests. Honored guests should be entertained with the best wine!" He was beaming with joy and turned around immediately, taking a fist-sized wine jar from the top of the shiny wine cabinet behind him.
The wine jar was covered with a red cloth and a big "Fu" character was pasted on it with black characters on a red background, which looked festive.
Diao Xinyan immediately felt that this was the kind of person that a store should hire as a shopkeeper and waiter, someone who had to be smart, sweet-mouthed, and nimble.
Unlike the shop just now, if the business owner hired a socially anxious person, how could he do business in his shop?
No matter how special his products are, if others learn how to make them, his shop won’t be able to stay open for long.
"Aqiu..."
The shopkeeper of Pangolin Mud Brick sneezed, rubbed his nose, counted the number of mud bricks in the shop, and muttered to himself: The tribe leader said that he could go back after the tribe selected a smart person, but he didn't know whether he had been selected.
There are so many people here, it’s scary!
