Don't call me evil god

Chapter 723: A New Experience in Ceylon
Looking at the bustling flow of people in Ceylon city.

Pete and others were confused.

The city is a familiar one;

The streets were familiar streets;

People...seem to be the same people as before.

But what happened just now?!
Dolan's voice was full of disbelief: "Damn it, I didn't expect these guys to come to Ceylon City. When I left, they were still active in Dawn City."

"What are you doing?" Prince Fradin asked curiously.

"Attracting clients," Dolan said helplessly with his hands spread out, "Ray Wayne and the other designers have designed the plans for Dawn City two hundred years from now, and their business is getting bigger and bigger."

"Walking alone is too slow, so there are now several car companies in Ceylon that provide short-distance and medium-distance transportation services."

"The Countess, under the guidance of the God of Knowledge, issued a new decree prohibiting malicious competition, monopolistic operations, false propaganda, exaggeration, and the substitution of concepts."

"In short, businesses are only allowed to use normal business methods, and if they violate the rules, their business licenses will be revoked."

"In order to compete for new customers, they would look for newcomers in Dawn City and promote their car dealership business to them."

"After all, people usually only choose one car dealership for long-term use. This is related to their reputation and professionalism. If you are late in attracting customers, they may be snatched away by their peers."

"But they never came to Ceylon City before, and even... blocked the airship dock to solicit customers!"

Prince Fradin suddenly realized.

"I see!"

"There is only one car dealership in the capital called Fengwo that is responsible for most of the carriage and fleet rental business. All other car dealerships have been completely acquired by them. No one can do the car dealership business anymore."

"Who said the eastern border is barbaric, rude and stupid? Your idea is obviously very good! I think I can ask my father to promote it in the capital after I go back!"

The corner of Dolan's mouth twitched.

Pete and others couldn't help but hold their foreheads.

Fradin had never been to the border before, but now he felt that everything he saw was the "border feature" of Ceylon.

I don't know.

Many things are completely new to locals like Pete!
For example, the so-called "business license certificate"!
It was common for car dealerships and taverns to advertise in crowded areas to attract new customers.

But there was no difference between "licensed" and "unlicensed" operations before.

As a result, black shops and fake stores are rampant. If you are not an experienced person who knows the business, you may be deceived by the sweet talk of the promotion.

Strictly speaking.

The "Dwarf Seiko" that half-dwarf, the goblin Hugo Xiwei's friend in Ceylon City, Maren, would never pass the "Business License Certificate" review if it were to be opened today.

Because he was involved in obvious false propaganda and substitution of concepts.

Walking in the city of Ceylon, people can clearly feel the gap between the shops on both sides of the streets in the city.

All businesses that have obtained a business license issued by the Countess have affixed the corresponding "S" logo in the most conspicuous and eye-catching place on their door sign.

This thing is almost equivalent to the Countess's Selection, or even the "Noven's Selection", representing the quality and service that must be qualified. It is definitely not worth it to lose the qualification for the short-term profit brought by cheating people after passing the review with great difficulty.

Stores with certificates are obviously more popular than their peers.

When passing by a grocery store selling all kinds of dried fruits and nuts, Prince Fladin couldn't help but be curious and went in for a look.

There were quite a few customers inside who looked like ordinary people in their attire.

When selecting goods, they were very familiar with directly expressing their requests to the grocery store clerk, such as a few pounds of dried apples, or two handfuls of raisins, and then waited for the clerk to pack the corresponding items into the cloth bags they brought.

A coin was handed over and a smooth transaction was completed.

Seeing this process, both Pete and Gail's eyes widened in surprise.

This is completely different from the transactions they had previously imagined!
In the past, buyers and sellers were like mortal enemies. Buyers would pick and choose every grain, while sellers would try every possible means to do tricks, such as selling inferior goods as good ones and shortchanging each other in weight.

Especially the most common daily necessities.

For example, flour and bran.

It has almost become an explicit rule for merchants to mix some sand, sawdust and the like into the mixture.

After a purchase, a lot of time is spent on intrigues with merchants.

For people like Pete and Gail who are of noble birth, their manors usually have butlers who are responsible for purchasing daily necessities.

Each purchase they make usually takes anywhere from several days to half a month, and is laborious and time-consuming.

How to buy the best things with the least money is a science. Only people with many years of purchasing experience can do this job. Otherwise, you may be cheated no matter how much you buy.

What now?
Anyone, even a child who has just learned to speak, can easily buy goods that meet the quality standards and can even be called high-quality goods!
There is no need to worry about being cheated by unscrupulous businessmen.

Fradin grew up in the royal capital and had never seen the tricks of "passing off inferior goods as good ones" played on the eastern border. He was amazed at the considerate and thoughtful service attitude in Ceylon City.

To locals like Pete and Gail, it is incredible that businessmen are willing to compete honestly on quality and service!
The saying "All businessmen are dishonest" seems to have disappeared in Ceylon!
Pete and Gale looked at each other.

Both of them saw incredible expressions in each other's eyes.

Because they knew very well how bad the situation in Ceylon was before!
The eastern border is looked down upon by the people of the royal capital. In addition to the stereotype, it is also an objective fact that the conditions here are poor.

How could the situation change so drastically after they had only been away for more than two months?!

"Is this still Ceylon Territory?!"

Similar thoughts came to both of their minds.

The current Ceylon City gives them the same feeling as the royal capital Starosh, or even... better than Starosh!
Over in the royal capital, perhaps the business in the trade zone was so brisk that the merchants were getting a little impatient. After all, they would never lack buyers.

Sometimes when I could tell from their accents that Pete and his friends were from other places, they would put on an arrogant look that said, "It's your choice, don't buy it."

In Ceylon City, the situation is completely the opposite.

Just like those guys at the car dealership at the airship dock who are soliciting new customers, the farther from the city they are from, the more welcome they will be in Ceylon City!
