Chapter 1005: Chapter 547: An Unprecedented Exchange Craze!_2
Elijah Hastings could see it right away. That bald guy hadn’t taken enough advantage yet!
Obviously, the price here was the cheapest, and he had certainly inquired about it, but now he still wanted others to lower their prices. They’ve already said they have a clearly marked price and won’t reduce it. What a bluff...
The bald man had no way to back down, and then he saw Oscar Knight and Elijah Hastings entering. His eyes darted around, and his voice immediately grew louder, with anger and grievance in his tone:
"You can’t do business like this! The agreed price won’t drop! By doing this, you’re bullying the customer! That’s dishonest. Who will dare to do business with you in the future?"
Upon seeing this, Elijah Hastings thought, this guy’s acting is quite good!
Looks like he has done plenty of such filthy things before!
When the salesperson heard this, he started to get nervous. He had never encountered such a situation before. This person was directly slandering the Firm’s credibility, and that was a big problem!
The bald man’s voice was loud, instantly attracting the attention of the other customers.
"You guys go ahead and look around, I’ll handle this!" Oscar Knight said to Elijah Hastings and the others before walking over.
"Why are you like this?" A girl who was planning to buy a lapis lazuli bracelet couldn’t help but snap at the bald man. "Aren’t you talking nonsense?"
"What’s it to you? Mind your own business, and be careful—hmmph!" The bald man turned and glared at the girl, startling her into quickly stepping aside.
"Sir, what seems to be the problem? If it’s an issue with our store, then I offer my apologies. If it’s a misunderstanding, then let’s just clear it up."
Oscar Knight had already walked up to the bald man and said.
At this point, people had already started to gather around.
Seeing Oscar Knight approach, with so many people crowding around, the bald man’s eyes darted about, planning to fabricate more stories. However, Oscar Knight preemptively pointed upwards and said:
"Sir, I must inform you in advance that we have Cameras installed in our store. The latest kind that can capture both sound and images.
Additionally, the goods in our store have a clearly marked price, and are not up for negotiation... It’s better to think it over before you speak!"
Although his tone was still very calm, and Oscar Knight even had a smile on his face, the implication contained in that tone was quite clear!
The bald man instantly felt the "threat"!
He was still reluctant, but thinking it over, he didn’t dare take the risk!
If the other party’s Cameras could really record audio and video, then it would backfire on him, and that would be a big trouble!
The Police Affairs Station was not far away!
His face stiff with pretense, he said:
"No problem, no problem, it’s a misunderstanding... I just wanted to buy your Rough stone... can this Rough stone be a bit cheaper?"
"Clearly marked price, no negotiating!" Oscar Knight’s smile faded, "Since it’s a misunderstanding, it’s all good once it’s cleared up. I just want to reiterate, our Firm may be new, but we base ourselves on credibility and won’t do anything to cheat consumers. So in the future, please think before you speak..."
The bald man’s face looked a bit embarrassed.
Oscar Knight ignored him and walked up to the girl, smiling and saying:
"Thank you, thank you for speaking up for us just now. Here’s a Small gift for you."
As he spoke, he took a lapis lazuli bracelet from the counter and handed it to Luna Smith, who gave it to the girl.
The girl’s face turned red and she hastily waved her hands:
"No no no, I didn’t do much..."
With that, the "Misunderstanding" was resolved, and Everyone dispersed to browse their desired items.
One group had not completely left when a new group made their way over.
Hearing snippets like "I’ve heard this place has Genuine American Military Supplies" and "The items here are authentic and really cheap," Elijah Hastings knew that the Firm’s reputation was established.
"Business is good!" Elijah Hastings said to Oscar Knight, who had just resolved the situation. "It’s clear, you’ve changed quite a bit!"
"With you guys out there fighting and risking your lives, leaving the business to me, if I don’t manage it properly, I won’t be able to save face!"
After bidding farewell to Oscar Knight and the others, Elijah Hastings and his party took a connecting flight to Japan.
In the Morning, Zena Fitzgerald brought Water to assist Sean Knight with his morning routine—Sean Knight had already grown accustomed to her presence. It was indeed easier to adapt from frugality to luxury, and he was a bit worried in his heart about how he would manage when he left here. Of course, this was just a joke.
After being served breakfast by Zena Fitzgerald—due to Elijah Hastings and the others having left, and Elder Hassan being extremely busy of late, Sean Knight was the only one left in the large courtyard with normal routines (referring to those with authority).
Therefore, Sean Knight was now having his meals in his own house, with Zena Fitzgerald tending to him. If Sean Knight didn’t allow it, Zena Fitzgerald’s big eyes would look at him with such a pitiful expression that even without speaking, it could soften anyone’s heart.
Oh well, might as well indulge a bit.
After having breakfast, Sean Knight rested for a while to digest his food, then would ride the Humvee to the Base, accompanied by Zena Fitzgerald. The Base was not only the posting spot for the security personnel but had also become a distribution center for Four Corners Supplies.
Ever since Bagel brought his people over and signed an agreement to transfer the Base to the trade company Sean Knight belonged to as their garrison, the tribal residents not only received Supplies but were also informed that they could bring some Local Specialties to the Base, where they could exchange them for living goods depending on the situation.
Of course, not everything was exchangeable, the notice specifically stated that the main items that could be exchanged included Rough gemstones, precious metals like gold, items like Antiques, and Local Specialties like carpets and Pine Nuts, etc.
