When the elf beauty was praised by Merlin, her fair cheeks instantly flushed, just like the peach blossoms blooming in spring, delicate and charming.
She lowered her head slightly and pursed her lips a little embarrassedly.
Seeing this, Merlin quickly struck while the iron was hot, reached out and skillfully pulled out a large basket from under the stall, and introduced it with a beaming face: "We sell good things here. The first thing I recommend is these beautiful hairbands!"
As he spoke, he placed a large basket of colorful and exquisite hairbands in the most conspicuous position of the stall with a "clatter".
Those hairbands sparkled with charming luster under the sunlight, and each one looked like a carefully carved work of art.
The female elves around were originally full of expectations, but now they were a little dazed. They exchanged glances with each other and thought to themselves: After all this time, all we have is to sell hair ties?
There was a flash of disappointment in their eyes, and they subconsciously took a step back.
Merlin was so smart that he saw through their thoughts at a glance. He waved his hand and explained, "Sisters, don't underestimate these hair ties. We don't just sell hair ties here. What we sell are all cheap and good things developed by the Arcane Academy after countless days and nights. They are easy to use, economical and affordable."
As he spoke, he picked up a hair tie and flexibly twisted it around his fingers a few times, showing its flexibility. "Take this first item, the hair tie made by a master craftsman, for example. The craftsmanship is very particular!"
When the elves heard what he said, their curiosity was aroused again and they all came forward.
When they came closer to take a look, their eyes lit up. You know what, you really have to say, they had never seen such a hairband before.
Each hairband is woven with special silk thread, which is not only brightly colored, but also soft and smooth, and feels extremely comfortable to the touch. It is also dotted with some small and exquisite crystal beads, shells or exotic feathers, which looks very beautiful.
Little did people know that these hair ties were carefully improved by Merlin by referring to the wholesale hair tie production techniques of Pinduoduo and Yiwu Small Commodities in his previous life, and combining them with the material characteristics of this world. They are completely new things that have never appeared in this world before.
Elves are born with a love of beauty. When these female elves saw this unprecedented beautiful hairband, they were instantly like being cast under a spell and could not move. Their eyes were full of desire and love. They gathered around and asked Merlin how to buy it.
Merlin cleared his throat and introduced with a confident smile: "Each of these hairbands is only two gold coins!" His voice was crisp and loud, and was particularly clear in the noisy market.
Two gold coins! When the price was spoken, the elves were stunned at first.
For elves who are wealthy and never short of gold coins, two gold coins are not outrageously expensive, but it is definitely not cheap to buy a small hairband.
The elves secretly calculated in their hearts that spending two gold coins to buy a hairband would be a crazy thing, because in their previous understanding, ordinary accessories could not reach this price.
"This is too expensive!" A female elf in a pink miniskirt spoke first. She frowned and her tone was full of dissatisfaction.
"It's simply a black marketeer!" another elf echoed, crossing his arms and looking at him with contempt.
"What kind of hairband costs two gold coins? This thing is just a little bit prettier, but it's sold at such a high price!"
"The materials here are all the most common. You human, do you really think we are fools?" The elves gathered around the stall, pointing angrily and talking one after another. The scene was a little chaotic for a while.
But Merlin was not angry at all, he knew very well that the purchasing power of two gold coins was almost equivalent to 200 RMB on Blue Star. If it were on Blue Star, 200 RMB to buy an ordinary hairband would indeed be a bit too much.
His eyes rolled, and a plan came to his mind. He quickly said, "Two gold coins are enough to buy a hairband, but! They are also enough to participate in the game!"
"Game? What game?" The elves present were all stunned. Their curiosity was instantly aroused. They stopped complaining and cast inquiring glances at Merlin.
Merlin chuckled, and like a magician, he pulled out a nine-square grid from under the stall and placed it in front of the group of female elves, explaining, "This game is called Hairband Matching. As long as you buy a hairband, I will grab the other eight hairbands from the box and put them in the nine-square grid. As long as there are a pair of identical hairbands, the whole pair will be given to you for free! And if the number of matches exceeds ten, there will be extra rewards!"
As he spoke, he picked up the hairband and gestured, with excitement on his face as if this game was the most interesting thing in the world.
Merlin's words instantly aroused the interest of the female elves present.
They looked at each other and discussed among themselves, their eyes flickering with eagerness, as if they thought this was interesting.
At this time, a beautiful female elf with outstanding appearance and wearing a light blue dress came forward. She turned her wrist and two gold coins sparkled in her palm. She handed them to Merlin without hesitation and said, "It sounds interesting. Let me try it!"
As she spoke, the female elf glanced around the stall, carefully selected a shell hairband and handed it over.
In the Elf Forest, because it is very far away from the ocean, accessories with marine elements such as shells and pearls are particularly popular, appearing novel and unique.
Merlin took the shell hairband and placed it in the center of the nine-square grid with a smile on his face. Then he pretended to casually reach into the box and grabbed a handful of hairbands and put them in his hand. After fiddling with them for a few times, he quickly filled up the nine-square grid.
The female elf widened her eyes in surprise, pointed at the nine-square grid, and said excitedly, "Oh my, there are three pairs of the same ones! Does this mean that I can take these six free hairbands?"
Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, and her eyes were full of anticipation.
When the female elves around heard this, their eyes lit up and they thought to themselves: This probability is quite high, two gold coins for six hairbands, which seems quite good.
However, Merlin shook his head and said, "No."
When the female elves heard Merlin say this, they thought he was going to go back on his word. Their faces immediately turned red with anger and they loudly accused him, "Boss, this is immoral. We just agreed on something. Are you trying to cheat?"
Merlin quickly waved his hands and explained with a smile: "It's not that I regret it. There is one more rule I didn't tell you. Look, there are three identical pairs of hair ties in the nine-square grid. You can take all the identical hair ties. I will continue to take out hair ties from the box in the empty squares. If there are identical ones, I will give them away for free! Until there is no more matching ones!"
