"Come, take a look! These are exquisite pieces of jewelry, freshly forged in the furnace, made by truly high-precision instruments!!"
"Everyone come and check me out! This is a top-tier necklace crafted using ancient techniques, truly made by master craftsmen who have dedicated themselves to its creation!"
"You won't lose out, you won't be cheated, come and take a look!!"
"If you don't like jewelry, we also have other mineral-based products."
Chapter 086 The Ore of Spicy Mountain! Encountering the Twelve Earthly Branches Again!! A Serious Man in Black and White!!
On the street, a small vendor wearing a white towel on his head had a fawning smile on his face.
He rubbed his hands together and looked at Mog, who was standing in front of his stall.
"Are these products made from the minerals of Spicy Mountain?"
Mog's gaze swept over the glittering, exquisitely beautiful merchandise on the stall.
Each piece seems to possess an inexplicable attraction, drawing people in unconsciously.
Judging from its appearance, it is indeed a very exquisite work of art, which makes people unconsciously feel fond of it.
As a result, handicrafts from Laxiangshan are very popular.
Whether it's jewelry or other products, they are very famous all over the world.
Moreover, most people feel a sense of goodwill after seeing it for the first time, and they subconsciously think that such a product is really well made and is a work of art.
Or perhaps it just happens to fit one's aesthetic preferences, making one fall in love with it.
In reality, they were all deceived by this sense.
"The ore from Spicy Mountain, after being refined, exudes an alluring and decadent aroma."
"Once you try it, you'll be hooked and crave it like crazy, even if it means going bankrupt."
Recalling the information about Spicy Mountain in his mind, Mog also knew what kind of harm these small, shiny white objects could cause.
If you think about this principle and the harm of such severe addiction carefully, you'll know exactly what it's targeting.
"Any vendors selling this kind of thing in this area..."
Mog gave the shop owner in front of him one last calm look. "Every single one of them is absolutely innocent."
"Even if they were all lined up together and shot, not a single one would be wronged."
"In fact, they deserved to die."
Those who set up stalls here to sell their wares are all utterly despicable.
You should know that once you try this spicy mountain mineral, you'll immediately fall in love with it.
Therefore, any vendors selling here undoubtedly know the nature and harmfulness of this mineral.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be so clear-headed as to be selling here.
But they all tacitly concealed this fact, instead warmly greeting the unsuspecting outsiders.
"Uh, this Mr. Gu..."
The vendor wanted to say something, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Mog turned and left.
This, on the contrary, left him somewhat puzzled.
But in the blink of an eye, he forgot about it.
Forget it, guys like this who suddenly arrive in this city and whose identities are hard to fathom.
There will naturally be corresponding solutions and measures.
This is not something he needs to care about.
He immediately patted his face and turned to greet the other new outsider who followed him in.
"Excuse me, customer, take a look at these products; they are all made with the finest craftsmanship..."
The boss was about to give an enthusiastic introduction, but before he could finish, the newcomer interrupted him:
"Are these all made from ore mined from Spicy Mountain?"
The newcomer's voice was very deep, yet it seemed to be full of magnetism.
"Um?!"
The vendor was slightly taken aback and immediately became wary.
"What do you mean, sir/madam...?"
He couldn't help but squint his eyes and scrutinize the other person closely.
The person in front of me had a very serious expression, was tall, and stood straight in place.
Especially when you see that the other person's clothes are only black and white, a very clean and neat outfit.
And the aura that emanates from them, making them clearly not to be trifled with...
"I suppose you're a big shot in some kind of mafia, aren't you?!"
The vendor's eyes darted around, his rich experience flashing through his mind, and he immediately matched it with his preconceived notions.
He immediately asked with absolute certainty.
Well, it was said to be a question, but it was actually phrased as an affirmative statement, and the tone was extremely confident.
The arriving, serious-looking man in black and white: "..."
"Ahem, yes~"
He coughed slightly, somewhat awkwardly, "You guessed right."
"really!!"
The stall owner, with a look of "I knew this would happen," became even more enthusiastic.
"That's right, these are all ores from Spicy Mountain..."
Knowing that some things couldn't be said openly, the stall owner lowered his voice:
“I know that distinguished guests like you from the underworld come here to buy a lot of goods each time.”
"So if you order from me, I can't guarantee how much discount I can offer, but..."
He chuckled and, quite discreetly, made a hand gesture towards the serious-looking man in black and white:
"I can offer you this much in rebates!!"
Well, the way he gestured so skillfully in front of the purchasing staff clearly meant this wasn't the first time he'd done something like this.
The serious-looking man in black and white: "..."
His eye twitched slightly, then, as if suppressing some emotion, he asked in a deep voice:
Can you guarantee that these ores are genuine?
"It's really true!!"
The stall owner patted his chest and swore an oath:
"The goods I supply are even more genuine than real gold and silver!!"
"If you only want the raw materials, I can guarantee you that the goods you receive will be fresh ore that has just been mined from that spicy and fragrant mine!"
"oh?!!"
The stern-faced man in black and white raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "You have such channels?!"
"Look at what you're saying!!"
The stall owner was immediately displeased when he saw the suspicious and disbelieving look on the serious-looking man in black and white.
"I can say with certainty that other people in our line of work may not be able to reach my level or degree."
"But if it were me~~~"
A smug look appeared on the vendor's face:
"My brother-in-law is the largest shareholder and owner in the Spicy Mountain mining industry!!"
"If I wanted to, I could secretly take some raw materials from him."
Upon hearing this, the serious-looking man in black and white looked at the stall owner in front of him with slight surprise and astonishment.
"I never knew you had this kind of background~~~"
The stern-faced man in black and white seemed to soften his tone somewhat: "So he agreed to you secretly getting goods from him, right?"
"How is that possible?!"
The vendor waved his hand dismissively, saying:
“My brother-in-law is very cautious, so of course he would never agree to me doing such a thing. That’s why I went to pick up the goods secretly.”
"He clearly owns such a large business, yet his work style is so cowardly..."
The stall owner chuckled as he spoke, seemingly disapproving of his brother-in-law's cowardly manner.
"He clearly had such a great opportunity to make money, but he squandered it. He really doesn't know how to utilize resources."
He sighed deeply, looking extremely regretful.
Then, immediately afterward, he straightened his back and said proudly:
"So, I need to help him expand his sales channels and boost sales!"
"So, in that case..."
The serious-looking man in black and white remained noncommittal.
"You did all of this secretly, without your brother-in-law knowing?"
"Of course!"
The vendor said casually, "My brother-in-law now stays at home all day with my little niece."
“If it weren’t for necessary business and unavoidable work that required him to go out, he would probably want to stay by my little niece’s side 24 hours a day.”
"Therefore, my brother-in-law is either out doing business or at home taking care of my little niece."
The stall owner winked at the serious-looking man in black and white: "So, these opportunities of mine have come, haven't they?"
