Chapter Fifteen Sales Preheating

  Du Le pulled out five tangerines from a cloth bag and handed them to Zhao Shi, saying: "My name is Du Le, don't call me Master of the House, it doesn't sound good. Since I've taken you in, I won't let you go hungry. Here are five tangerines, take them and eat first."

  Mr. Zhao's face was filled with gratitude as he declined, saying: "Sir, it's too expensive."

  "Yes!" Zhao Quan also had a terrified look on his face. "These fruits, one of them costs five cents in gold coins."

  Du Le heard this and his mind moved, asking: "Zhao Quan, do you still have any one-yuan, five-fen, or one-fen gold coins on you? Let me take a look."

  Du Le hasn't touched a single gold coin today, he always has to verify whether the gold coins here are pure gold or not. Otherwise, the gold coins earned wouldn't be useful even if brought back home. Du Le still hasn't found any goods suitable for him to bring back and sell, but directly bringing back gold coins would be a more straightforward method.

  Zhao Quan's face showed a hint of hesitation, and he glanced at the orange before firmly pulling out another gold coin from his pocket and presenting it with both hands. Du Le saw the hesitation on Zhao Quan's face and somewhat understood what he was thinking, but didn't mind, smiling slightly, after all, trust takes time to build.

  Du Le didn't say much, took the gold coins and examined them carefully. As for his understanding of gold, Du Le couldn't claim to be very clear about it. The only thing he had ever seen was a gold ring that his mother had carefully kept, and his other knowledge was limited to descriptions on TV and in newspapers.

  Du Le couldn't see any problem, his intuition told him that this should be real gold, but he didn't know the content of gold. He weighed it with his hand and estimated that the weight of this one-yuan gold coin was about two grams. It's better to take some coins back and find a gold shop that can recycle gold for testing.

  Du Le returned the gold coins to Zhao Quan and said, "Zhao Quan, I have something that needs your help right now. Let's go together and find a place for you and your family to live."

  "Please instruct, Your Majesty." Zhao Quan said with a slight bow.

  Du Le didn't hide anything, and directly took out two boxes of oranges from the space, put them on the ground, and said: "Help me move these two boxes of oranges, and come with me to a fruit store in Jinyang City."

  Zhao Quan and his family saw Du Le pull out two boxes of oranges out of thin air, and after their initial shock, they couldn't help but reveal a hint of delight on their faces.

  "Your Majesty... are you an immortal?" Zhao Quan asked excitedly as he knelt down again.

  Du Le neither acknowledged nor denied. In this world, Du Le had no power at all and no means to restrain Zhao Quan's hands. It was necessary to reveal some divine powers and maintain a bit of mystery. So, Du Le showed off in front of them. Of course, this was also to make the Zhao family more loyal and trusting towards him as their master.

  Du Le slightly shook his head and said: "It's none of your business, don't ask, and don't say anything." He pointed to the box and asked: "Can you move two boxes?"

  Zhao Quan stood up and effortlessly lifted two boxes of oranges, saying: "Thank you for your concern, Zhao Quan has been working hard all year round, I have a lot of strength."

  "Uh, okay." Du Le nodded and turned to face the Zhao family, saying: "Please wait for a moment, I'll take Zhao Quan to handle some things, it won't be too long." After finishing speaking, Du Le took out five oranges from the two boxes he had just taken out and handed them to the two children, "If you're hungry, eat an orange first."

  "The adults are benevolent, and the old lady is humbly grateful." Zhao's face was filled with excitement. Du Le's immortal methods, in their eyes, only felt extremely honored. One person attains the Tao, and even chickens and dogs ascend to heaven!

  Du Le carried Zhao Quan and moved two boxes of oranges, which were quickly placed in front of the fruit shop couple.

  The couple in the fruit shop looked surprised to see Du Le coming, and without wasting any time, the thin man immediately took out a document and placed it in front of Du Le.

  Du Le took a glance, and the top was full of familiar texts, somewhat like Chinese characters, but he didn't recognize most of them. Fortunately, it was a business document, so Du Le could still rely on guessing to read slowly. Suddenly, there was some misunderstanding, indeed, he lacked consideration, originally this world may not be related to Earth, and the similarity in language was already difficult to come by, the texts were not necessarily the same.

  It's okay, Zhao Quan took the initiative to take a step forward and helped Du Le solve the problem. Zhao Quan actually recognized the words, which gave Du Le a small surprise.

  Zhao Quan didn't know that Du Le couldn't read, he just thought the fruit shop couple weren't noble people. His master was an immortal, and dealing with them directly would be beneath him, not fitting for his status. So Zhao Quan very naturally did what a servant should do.

  Zhao Quan read the document to Du Le once, and the content was not much different from the agreement they had previously discussed. Du Le nodded in agreement with the contents of the document. However, finally, Du Le asked Zhao Quan to sign his name and draw a picture.

  Zhao Quan was stunned for a moment, unsure what Du Le meant, but as the master's servant, he couldn't show any doubts in front of outsiders. Maybe Du Le had his own considerations.

  Following Du Le's instructions, the documents were quickly completed, and finally, Zhao Quan also ran to the government office with the thin man to officially confirm the validity of the documents.

  After handing over two boxes of oranges to the fruit shop, Du Le still thought that the couple who ran the fruit shop would need some time to sell out these two boxes with more than a hundred oranges.

  To his surprise, over a hundred oranges were sold out in less than half an hour after the fruit shop couple took over. And they were sold for one gold coin each. It turned out that after Du Le left, they had already spread the word that a batch of fresh fruits was about to arrive. What Jincheng City lacked least was rich people, and outside the fruit shop, there were already some people who had sent someone to wait specifically for new fresh fruits to hit the market.

  High efficiency! High returns! Talented people! Du Le secretly sighed in his heart, if this couple wasn't in a hurry to leave Jinyang City, he would have let them take some benefits and package the deal for them.

  "Thank you! Young brother, this fruit shop will be yours from now on. If today wasn't the only time Fuwei Escort Agency is escorting goods to the south recently, we wouldn't have been in such a hurry. We'll meet again someday." The thin man bowed with his fist and smiled, and at the door, a horse carriage had already been loaded with luggage.

  Du Le said with some strangeness, returning a fist bump: "We'll meet again someday."

  "Be careful, little brother, take care of yourself!" The thin man said seriously as he stepped onto the horse carriage.

  "Take care." Du Le nodded and said. If he didn't have a positioning transmitter, he might also have the same idea as the fruit shop owner. Seeking good fortune and avoiding evil is human nature.

  The Golden City was very large, with many high-ranking officials and nobles. The two boxes of oranges were like a drop of honey placed in front of a swarm of bees, not enough to satiate the swarm, but instead attracting even more bees. Before long, even more people from the city came upon hearing the news.

  Du Le took advantage of the situation and didn't let go of this free advertisement, telling Zhao Quan to hurry back and bring his family over. He promised the inquiring people that another batch of fresh fruit would arrive by late afternoon.
