Greetings, Mister Principal: Market research
Sanderson was walking on the street, wearing a fancy dress, followed by a burly man. This was his bodyguard Parker, who was not smart but strong and could punch through a wooden board with one punch.
His swaggering movements attracted the attention of many people. Sanderson did not restrain himself, but became more arrogant. He enjoyed this kind of treatment very much.
When he was a child, he was often beaten severely by his drunk father. Then one day, the **** old man fell into the river and drowned because of his drunkenness. When Sanderson became an orphan, he also gained what he had expected. long-lasting freedom.
He did not go to the orphanage, but started petty theft on the street, and gradually became a well-known gangster. Later, Sanderson met Piram who came to Prest to start a business.
It has to be said that Sanderson's dirty tricks are sometimes quite effective. After he helped Piram settle a stubborn small workshop, Sanderson became Piram's number one henchman. Be prosperous and prosperous.
This time, he came to investigate the sales of Piram Cola in the market.
Sanderson turned the corner and walked into a pharmacy store. This was an ordinary store that had cooperative relationships with several alchemy workshops.
"Boss, give me two bottles of Coke, from Piram's."
As he walked into the pharmacy store, Sanderson shouted, making the store owner frown.
The boss wanted to say something, but when he saw the tall and burly Parker behind Sanderson, he suppressed it. He took the three copper coins thrown by Sanderson and took them out of the freezer on the side. Two bottles of Coke.
During this process, Sanderson glanced around the store. He found that most of the freezers were Piram's Coke, and he felt a little happy. It seemed that the price strategy was still as effective as ever.
Sanderson threw one of the bottles of Coke to Parker, opened the bottle cap himself, and took a sip. To be honest, Piram Coke did taste a little different, but who cares?
Just when Sanderson was about to ask the boss about the sales status of Coke, three more men walked into the store. They loosened their collars. Apparently, they felt a little uncomfortable with the recent warmer temperature.
"Hey, boss, do you have a Coke?"
The leading man glanced at Sanderson and went straight to the counter without commenting on his appearance.
"Only Piram Cola."
The boss replied and knocked on the freezer door. Inside the transparent cabinet door, there were Piram Cokes neatly arranged.
This made Sanderson secretly happy. It was obvious that Piram Cola had quickly taken over the entire market. Those humble ants really couldn't compete with the Piram Empire!
"No, we have already visited three stores, but there is nothing here."
One of the men complained, looked at his companion, and sighed helplessly.
"Looks like I won't be able to drink Coke today."
"Why is Crescent Coke so out of stock? Can't we increase production?"
"Sorry, the new batch may not arrive until noon."
The boss smiled apologetically and said that it seemed that the reason why there was all Piram Cola here was simply because Crescent Cola had been sold out.
"Wait, why are you staring at Crescent Coke? Isn't Piram Coke also great? It's also cheap."
Sanderson suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a relatively relaxed tone.
"Piram Cola? That kind of thing can also be considered cola. Does it deserve it?"
Hearing Sanderson's words, one of the three people's voice suddenly rose several degrees, as if questioning.
"The Piram family has always liked to make low-quality imitations. The previous one was barely usable, but the taste of this Coke is so different that it simply insults the name of Coke!"
A few of them seemed a little irritable because of the sweltering weather and the fact that they had not bought a Coke after running for a long time, which made Sanderson stunned for a while.
"Sorry, I'm just a little irritated."
The man quickly apologized to Sanderson, and while he was speaking, the store door was opened again, this time by a guy dressed as a clerk carrying a wooden box.
"Boss, I heard that Crescent Coke released a new product this morning, so I immediately ran to get the product."
The clerk put the wooden box down and opened the lid. It contained the same drink as the Coke bottle, but the color was different.
The three men immediately approached, like pirates who had finally found the legendary secret treasure.
They each held a bottle in their hands, containing drinks with three different liquids: turquoise, transparent, and orange.
"Antoine said this is a new drink of the same type as Coke but with a different taste and the same price."
"I'll try it."
One member of the trio took out three copper coins and handed them to the boss. Then he picked up the bottle opener and opened the bottle cap, taking a gulp of the transparent drink in his hand.
Because the wooden box itself is equipped with a short-acting low-temperature spell, the drink in the bottle is still cold.
A hint of coolness flows into the throat, dispelling the heat caused by the sultry weather. Unlike the soft sweetness of Coke, this transparent drink has a slightly fresh lemon flavor~IndoMTL.com~The slight sourness is more prominent. It replaces the original sweetness and makes the taste more layered, giving it a sense of transparency that sweeps away any irritability.
"This is great!"
While talking, the man's other two partners also paid and opened their own drinks.
As soon as the orange drink is opened, a burst of citrus fragrance is revealed. After drinking it in one sip, the special fructose sweetness fills the entire mouth, forming a wonderful symphony with the continuously released gas. It is better than ordinary oranges. I don’t know how high the juice is.
The green drink is accompanied by the freshness of the apple, the faint sweetness and the impact of the gas are intertwined, just like the crisp taste of the apple, instantly capturing people's hearts.
The expressions on the faces of the three people are so intoxicating. These three new drinks are no less inferior to Coca-Cola. Each has a strong personality, making people unable to put it down.
"Is this a new drink too?"
Sanderson threw out three copper coins and picked up a bottle of Coke with slightly different packaging but the same black liquid. The label showed that this drink was called Coke Zero, and it also specifically stated that it contained extremely high sugar content. Low.
“What’s the point of unsweetened Coke?”
Sanderson said to himself, opened the bottle cap and took a sip.
A strange taste suddenly filled his mouth. This sweetness that was different from ordinary Coke had some amazing charm. Although he kept warning himself in his heart that he should not be so addicted, Sanderson still couldn't bear it. He took another sip.
“Oh my god, I thought Coke was good enough, but I didn’t expect that there are four other drinks that are as good as Coke. Praise the King, I was born in this era.”
One of the men in the trio exclaimed, waking Sanderson up.
It's time for him to steal Antoine's alchemy circle.
