Survival Game: Call Me an Honest Businessman

Before Ying could recover from Li Zhi's shocking speech, she heard her ask her for information on all the portraits in the Starry Moon Corridor.

"all?"

"All of them, but please mark the ones you can still communicate with or have a history of communication with. The library should have their histories, right? Do you have any unofficial histories? For example, what they like, what they dislike, who are their friends, who are their enemies, and whether they have any descendants."

Shadow: "I do have readily available records of the portraits in the Starry Moon Corridor, but why do you need to know the likes and dislikes of those portraits? Some of them are almost a thousand years old."

Li Zhi: "It's useful."

Time was of the essence, so she turned and picked up a planet, mentally inquiring about the history of all the portraits in the Starry Moon Gallery.

Sure enough, there is a star system that specifically records these powerful individuals.

And all the planets together make exactly 122...5?

As Li Zhi was surprised, her consciousness moved, and a shimmering blue planet flew in front of her.

When it unfolds like a book, it turns out to be truly one's own history.

The 1225th Possessor of the Heart of a Strongman: Human Li Zhi

Li Zhi subconsciously opened the first page.

It says on it:

[Li Zhi, a merchant who pioneered the commercial history of the Tianqi Continent, selling the "Heart of the Strong" strategy in a unique way, and naming it "How to Break Through the Racial Limit and Become the 14th Person in Tianqi's 900th Year"]

Li Zhi was very satisfied.

I gave up on her strategy guide on the very first page.

What a fine descendant!

She really wanted to meet the author of this book.

Li Zhi turned to the last page, wanting to see the author's name, but could only see "a professor from the History Department of Saint Shadow University who dreams of becoming a businessman."

Forget it, time is of the essence. It's more important to look at the histories of other strongmen.

Li Zhi photographed the cover and first page of the book, put them back into the galaxy, retrieved another planet, turned it into a book, and quickly began to examine and record it.

After finding all the information, Ying saw Li Zhi holding a strange board and tapping it rapidly, his hand movements so fast that you could almost see afterimages.

Shadow: "What are you doing?"

Li Zhi: "I'm typing, taking notes."

Shadow: "Typing? With this? Can't your beta panel use telepathy?"

Li Zhi: "Do you know what I do on Earth?"

Shadow: "Businessman."

Li Zhi: "Yes, but to be more precise, I am a salesperson."

This is a new term.

Ying asked with great interest, "What is sales?"

"It's about recommending the products I'm selling to others."

What are you selling?

"What I sell is not important; what is important is that no matter what I sell, I can always get my target customers to buy what I sell."

"That's why I keep records."

"Finding customers, recording their information and details, thinking about what they need, and preparing for it in advance—when I first started my business, I sold software for data collection and summarization. As a small company just starting out in a mature market, I needed to spend more time getting customers to know me and trust me. So, I needed to understand my customers first and become their friend..."

"Moreover, when we sell our company's first software, I record the client's company or store address, size, and business direction."

"I not only know the business situation of her company or store, but also her family members and hobbies. Therefore, I can not only predict the future upgrade direction of their company or store, but also predict whether they need a new software or a software upgrade when they need an overall upgrade."

"I can also discuss and guide their conversations before making a sales pitch, so that they can trust me and feel close to me first."

"Although it won't always be successful, when they don't need it, I can ask their partners or friends who have just started a business if they need it, and in most cases, they will introduce me to their friends who really need it."

"Because few people can resist the sincerity of genuine understanding."

"But such sincerity can be completely shattered by just one detail that causes a misunderstanding."

"So even though my memory is better than most people's, I always remind myself not to blindly trust my memory. My goal is to not miss any potential customers. Recording is more effective than memorizing in achieving my goal."

Ying, "We've been discussing other people a lot before, and you rarely reveal your own information. Or rather, every time you do, you want to add a secret mark to feel at ease. But now you can say so much. I feel that you prefer selling your identity to being a businessman."

"Of course, every successful businessman is also a successful salesperson."

"In the early stages of my career, I preferred to introduce myself as a salesperson for a certain company rather than as the owner of that company."

"What about later?"

Li Zhi: "The people I met later on had increasingly higher positions, so I had to be the boss."

Ying asked curiously, "Why?"

Li Zhi shrugged: "When you're just starting out in your career, you'll often meet people with the same or slightly higher social status as you. When dealing with these people, being humble or slightly flattering them may give you more opportunities. But if you want to deal with people who are already in a very high position, being on equal footing is the only way to get to know them."

Shadow: "Although I don't understand why you've been so generous in sharing so much information about yourself today, I will record every word you said so that I can better understand you and the world you came from."

Li Zhi smiled slyly: "Don't be confused. I'm saying all this so that you can understand me better. If you understand what I'm going to do, you can introduce potential clients to me."

"I don't have any of your clients here."

"Everyone is a potential customer of mine, including you and everyone you know."

Li Zhi waved his hand: "I still have dozens of books to read, and the 8 hours are almost up. I'll start writing now. Oh, and tell Sister Mingchun that my design draft is finished. I'll go see her after I finish writing."

Just before the 8-hour deadline, Li Zhi used a precise search method to meticulously record the important information of these 1224 seniors with the heart of a strong person, categorizing them into different levels.

After handing over the design draft sent by Bai Ge to Ming Chun, Li Zhi rushed back to Bu Wang Wei without stopping.

It was already dark.

As Li Zhigang walked down the mountain, he saw several customers lingering in front of the general store, talking to Bai Ge and the others.

She opened her ears:

"We know Samsung is very busy, but we've come many times already. We just want a chance to see her. Could you please pass on our message?"

"Or, considering our sincerity in coming so many times, how about we stay at the grocery store and wait for her? Just for one night. If she doesn't return tonight, we won't ask to stay any more nights."

"Yes, we came here because we heard that Samsung Wufei invested in merchants of other races. I believe that if she sees our products, she will definitely be willing to invest in us, as long as you give us a chance to meet her."

They turned out to be a group of businessmen.

This was exactly what she wanted.

Li Zhi emerged from the darkness.

"Everyone, bring your plans by 8 a.m. I'll be waiting for you at Buwangwei."
