Chapter 143 Privilege Tickets
Chapter 143 Privilege Tickets
While Mary was laughing silently at how much money they managed to gain, the other customers that failed to purchase one weren’t quite happy.
In fact, they were all displeased and somewhat agitated, seeing how the others managed to obtain this modified Claymore Mine and not them.
The reason why those who couldn’t purchase one were unhappy, was the fact that some people didn’t purchase just one Claymore Mine.
Most of them purchased three at the same time, with one even being brazen enough to purchase 10 in total.
Given that there wasn’t a limit on how much they could purchase, these people bought the maximum number possible within their budget.
“This is totally unfair to us.”
“I know right, we all lined up patiently, but these unscrupulous people stocked up so many. How can this happen?”
“Young Lady, I don’t wish to offend you, but we have money here too that can afford it. We don’t ask for any discount, but at least let us have the chance to purchase them.”
The crowd soon began running forward and asking Mary for some fairness.
And although they were all somewhat demanding, their tone was soft and wasn’t the same kind of tone as the previous brave person.
They were dissatisfied with the other people that had bought more than one Claymore Mine, but not dissatisfied with Mary.
After all, none of them wished to be banned from being able to purchase one when their goal was to buy one for themselves.
Seeing that the crowd was clearly trying to be reasonable and used a soft approach toward her, Mary came to realize her mistake.
She had been blinded by the success of how many customers Shi Tian was able to attract but failed to acknowledge that their stocks aren’t infinite.
Originally, she would have been happy if they managed to sell even 10 of these Claymore Mines, given that Claymore Mines aren’t some new traps and people might be skeptical at first for their high demanding price.
However, thanks to Shi Tian’s outright demonstration of their Claymore Mines’ prowess, allowing these people to know that their products are different from the normal market, they started flocking in like flies.
‘Damn it, how could I have made such a blunder.’ Mary blamed herself for the current predicament and needed to come up with a solution fast that could satisfy these people.
These people were their potential customers- no, they should be considered customers already because they were all willing to pay right here and now.
Thus, she can’t just offend them or ban them like the brave person previously.
Just when Mary was struggling to figure out a solution, she felt a hand placed on her shoulder.
And with her natural reflex, she was about to grab the hand and throw him 180 degrees to the ground. Luckily, she managed to pause in time and realized it was Shi Tian.
“What are you doing?” She turned around and asked confusingly.
“Saving your ass.” Shi Tian rolled his eyes, subtly pushing her aside and taking the front.
Once Shi Tian was back in public view, the agitating customers that failed to purchase a Claymore Mine for themselves temporarily stopped.
Who knows if this crazy maniac was going to outrageously kill another person again?
Killing someone isn’t something to be afraid of, given that they had seen and faced death multiple times.
What truly made them afraid was the fact that Shi Tian plotted such an event to his advantage.
Within this safe hold, infighting or killing are absolutely prohibited, so why hadn’t Shi Tian been persecuted for killing someone for a demonstration?
The answer was extremely simple.
The person that died in Shi Tian’s demonstration was the first one to have made a move against him, which was equivalent to giving Shi Tian an excuse for self-defense.
Of course, it could have been said that Shi Tian asked to be killed, but who would believe that kind of reasoning if they actually attempted to bring this up to others?
And seeing the crowd’s somewhat fearful yet respectful expressions toward him, Shi Tian was pleased about it.
‘Heh, so what if I’m weaker than you all in terms of strength. Not everything is decided by the amount of power you wield, but how you control your power and manipulate the situation.’ Shi Tian sneered inwardly.
Faking a cough, Shi Tian spread his arms out, garnering all attention. It was as if he was some kind of bigshot and everyone was here to listen to his speech.
“My assistant here was excited and disappointed you all for those who are eager to purchase our new product.” Shi Tian quickly apologized on behalf of Mary’s blunder.
Meanwhile, Mary was astonished at being called an assistant by Shi Tian. She stared at him with disbelief and confusion.
Nevertheless, Shi Tian didn’t have the time to worry about her reaction as he continued his speech.
“For that blunder, I hereby announce that anyone who failed to purchase our Claymore Mine can put a deposit of 500 Eons here to get a Privilege Ticket.” He announced loudly.
And before the crowd could even respond, Shi Tian continued with his explanation.
“Now you might ask what is a Privilege Ticket? The Privilege Ticket is something exclusive of our Optic Mech, where not only will you receive the eligibility to be the first to buy the new Claymore Mine when we have new stocks available, but also on our upcoming new products.”
When the crowd first heard about having to pay 500 Eons for naught, they were distraught and nearly cursed.
However, once Shi Tian continued with his explanation, the people who originally failed to purchase the Claymore Mine were cheering and even began to clap.
While these groups of people were now satisfied and even gloating at those who managed to purchase the first batch. 𝙗𝙚𝒅𝒏𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝙜
As for Mary, she quickly tugged on his arm and asked in a low tone, “When did we have something like a Privilege Ticket for sale?”
