Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2595 Anchor Point

For a stall owner who sells antiques, talking to people and talking to ghosts is the most basic skill, so when you show interest in something, even if he knows that it was only sold last week, When it comes off the assembly line of a certain factory, it will be regarded as a good treasure from hundreds of years ago, or even thousands of years ago. There is no other unique product in the world, so now I can sell it to you for tens of thousands of dollars. Suffer.

Therefore, knowledgeable people will definitely not suffer this kind of loss, so they will start their own performance after discovering the target, that is, they will hide their goals and use other items to establish a price. Anchor point so that the net can be closed.

In this process, the establishment of the price anchor point can be said to be the most critical link, because it is related to the success or failure of your plan. After all, only when a suitable price anchor point is established can you buy it at a suitable price. Just what you want and a bunch of matching stylish new antiques.

As for what the price anchor is, to put it bluntly, after you walk into a restaurant and look at the price of the hot and sour potato shreds on the menu, you can roughly determine the price of other dishes and the level of the restaurant.

So this so-called price anchor point is a benchmark used to evaluate the prices of a series of commodities. In other words, it is a weight. This is also a very classic psychological knowledge point, because when people are exposed to something new, , but they will subconsciously compare with things they already know, so when buying things You will only shop around when you are shopping. For example, if you have been getting your hair cut somewhere before, and then one day you go to a newly opened barber salon to try the water, you will subconsciously make a decision based on the decoration level of the barber salon and the quality of the barber salon you have frequented before. Compare it with the barber shop, and then calculate the price of this barber salon.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the price anchor point is inferred by the buyer based on some information, but some sellers will do the opposite and use the prices of some common commodities to reversely anchor the buyer's price anchor point. This will give buyers the illusion that although this thing is a bit expensive, it is not unacceptable.

For example, the price of food in a new restaurant is ridiculously high, especially the white porridge or white rice that costs several hundred yuan. This makes people think that the remaining vegetables are reasonably priced for hundreds or even thousands. Especially when you use sea cucumber, abalone and other good things that are called "delicacies of mountains and seas" in everyone's eyes, and sell them for 888 when they are made into dishes, it is simply giving away welfare!

In this way, the price anchor in the minds of the guests has been quietly changed by the sky-high price of white porridge or rice, and they begin to think that other sky-high price dishes are not unacceptable. Of course, the white porridge and rice here can also be replaced with common shredded potatoes or rice. Tomato scrambled eggs, in short, just add this gimmick to increase the price. Anyway, I don't expect anyone to buy it. . . If so, shouldn't such a scapegoat be squeezed out of him?

Therefore, for the so-called antique stalls on the roadside, the things they sell are generally not clearly marked with prices. Of course, it is indeed difficult to clearly mark the prices of these things. After all, the price of this thing is difficult to evaluate, because at the same time A thing will be judged according to its own quality and whether it has A suitable background story will comprehensively determine its price. For example, even if two inkstones of the same model are exactly the same in appearance, if one of them can be traced back to the inkstone once used by a certain historical figure, then its price will be Another inkstone is more than a hundred times larger.

And antiques are also a matter of taste. In addition to professional second-hand dealers and gamblers who want to take advantage of opportunities, most people who buy antiques are related enthusiasts. Their biggest characteristic is that they are very interested in a certain category of antiques. For example, it is common to collect all kinds of porcelain with calligraphy and painting. It is rarer to collect small objects such as snuff bottles and finger rings. As for the rare collection, it is interested in ancient wares.

So if it is the right medicine, the price can definitely be sold at a higher price. After all, there is a saying that "a lot of money can't buy me happy", so as long as you see the right thing, there is no problem even if you spend a little more money.

Therefore, experienced antique store owners will place an antique in a prominent position in their store that opens the door at first glance, and then arrange a suitable price for it as the price anchor of their store to attract new buyers who come in. You can have a basic understanding of your own store and know the approximate prices of other antiques.

The same is true for street stall owners. They will also prepare some common antiques as price anchors, such as those antique coins with huge stocks. There is no need to fake these things. The real ones are only a few yuan anyway, and there are no more in between. Mixing in a few dozen or hundreds of copper coins can add a lot of genuine goods to your street stall, and you will become a conscientious businessman in the eyes of buyers.

Of course, the Cthulhu Running Game Hall often sets such "price anchors" to fool players. For example, the novice module at the beginning sets the tone of the Cthulhu Running Game Hall, letting players know that Cthulhu Running Game Hall How difficult is the module in the Sulu Running Game Hall? . . As a matter of fact, as a senior player in the Cthulhu Running Game Hall, Liu Xing feels that the difficulty of the novice modules and formal modules prepared for new players in the Cthulhu Running Game Hall is actually disproportionate.

The reason is very simple. As long as you are brave and careful, you can basically pass the level without any damage in the novice module. However, after reaching the official module, you will start to need a certain amount of luck. After all, in the novice module, you can pass any judgment even if you fail. It is definitely impossible to pass the level, but still think about the judgment after reaching the official module.

Therefore, the first "price anchor" implanted in the Cthulhu Run game lobby for players is, to put it bluntly, a scam, because many players will have a feeling of "this is it" after clearing the novice module, and feel that they As long as you think calmly and explore carefully, you can easily pass the level. As a result, after entering the official module, you only need to pass one or two judgments to be honest, and you can also realize that you have discovered something in the module. The truth is, if a certain judgment fails, all previous efforts will be wasted.

Therefore, Liu Xing feels that the Cthulhu Run Game Hall is not only screening suitable players through the novice module, but also trying to make these players numb, so that they can be caught off guard in the subsequent official module. Later, you can filter out a group of players who are more suitable for the Cthulhu Run Game Hall.

In subsequent modules, the Cthulhu Running Game Hall is also constantly preparing various anchor points for players, but when players advance to new areas, they will find that these anchor points are all plotting against themselves, because these The anchor point will cause you to have some wrong perceptions, which will lead to various unexpected situations.

Therefore, Liu Xing is a little suspicious that this event is also a special anchor point prepared for the martial arts module in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, because this event is similar to the main storyline of the martial arts module, and can be regarded as A mini version of the martial arts module. For example, each city lord is in the martial arts module. There are nine princes, and the New Emperor naturally corresponds to the New Dragon Emperor. As for the various scenes in the grid array, it can also be regarded as various battlefield environments in the future. After all, on the real battlefield, although there will be troops from both sides forming There are grand battles that start later, but there are also encounters that start right after meeting.

The biggest problem in encounters is the unpredictability of the battlefield environment. You may fight the enemy in the mountains and forests, or you may encounter the enemy near the farmland on the outskirts of the city, or even meet the enemy on a narrow road in a river, so you If the people here have not received special training, it is easy for them to have problems on these non-mainstream battlefields, and they will definitely not be able to exert their strength 100%. But how to put it, Liu Xing can confirm that the NPCs in this event are still a little too weak, and they are still weak overall. Compared with their counterparts in the martial arts module, the number is not only much smaller, but also the quality of the individuals There is a big difference, and the most important thing is that it is even more different in terms of high-end combat power. After all, the crocodile can be said to be an enemy of ten thousand people in this event, and it is also one of the best in combat power, but if he is put back In the martial arts module, that would be a third-rate general at best.

However, for Tianshui Town, a third-rate military general like Crocodile is quite good, because he can at least lead troops to fight, but no one in Tianshui Town at this time can do this, not even the personal bodyguard arranged by the third prince for Young Master Ying. The leader, he can barely bring a few dozen people with him as a personal guard. If he really wants to serve as a real general, I don’t know what could go wrong.

It's like being a team leader when you were studying. You could build a good relationship with your classmates and collect your homework. If there was anything, you could ask a taller class representative to take over. After you become a class representative, you have to collect the homework of the entire class, and there are really senior ones at the top and junior ones at the bottom. You are very passive when you are caught in the middle, and occasionally you have to take the blame from both sides.

Therefore, Liu Xing planned to break the rules at the beginning to see if any of the players wanted to recommend themselves to become the first general of Tianshui Town and lead hundreds of soldiers in Tianshui Town. . . Said to be soldiers and horses, in fact there are few real war horses in Tianshui Town, and these war horses also have owners.

As for the horses in the Bai family ranch, they can only be used for pulling carts and daily riding. It would be a bit difficult to expect them to go to the battlefield. After all, real war horses must not only have high bloodlines, but also undergo special training. Otherwise, this kind of horse will be out of control on the battlefield, and may even hit its own friendly troops.

Ten horses and horses are used, and the merit lies in not giving up.

This famous sentence comes from "Xunzi Encouraging Learning". The crosses here definitely do not refer to ten cars, but each "frame" represents a certain distance. In other words, this rogue horse can travel such a long distance. It means perseverance, so just let the horse haul goods without any problems. Letting him go to the battlefield is just causing trouble for himself.

However, Liu Xing had discussed with Baihe City before, that is, after the main plot of the martial arts module is started, the Bai Family Ranch will provide Tianshui Town with all animals, whether they are chickens, ducks, geese, cattle, sheep, and horses. Of course, Liu Xing Xing would also use the gold, silver and jewelry given to him by the third prince to pay off his debt.

Although Liu Xing can make a strong purchase and sale at this time, after all, the matter is urgent, but it will more or less affect the reputation of himself and the third prince, so he still has to let the new head of the Bai family like Baihe City make the decision. Only in this way can you complete the transaction with confidence and boldness. . . Although this is somewhat of an act, it is necessary to show that you are on the right path.

This is just like in recent years, many people have been complaining about Liu Bei's hypocrisy. The so-called benevolence and virtue are all performed by him. But the problem is that even if Liu Bei fully performed the hypocrisy, he has been performing it for his whole life, so gentleman's theory Regardless of his intentions, even if Liu Bei really played the role of a benevolent and righteous king all his life, then in the end he would be the embodiment of benevolence and righteousness during the Three Kingdoms period.

Just like Guan Yu has a lot of faults, that doesn't prevent him from becoming the Martial Saint in everyone's mind now, right?

At this time, Liu Xing wanted to imitate his compatriot Liu Bei to play a benevolent and righteous person, because Liu Xing felt that this should be a rewarding achievement, not to mention that he only needed to act for a few months, so he tried Just try it.

As for the poultry and livestock obtained from the Baijia Ranch, Liu Xing must temporarily store them at the Baijia Ranch for feeding, because feeding the poultry and livestock seems to be a very simple matter, just feed and add water on time. , the most I can do is clean up every now and then.

But in this era before antibiotics and veterinary drugs, once livestock and poultry get sick, it is a big problem, so rashly changing the living environment of these poultry and livestock can easily cause them to get sick. If they can't be cured by then, there will be no cure. have eaten.

Therefore, Baihe City specially introduced an NPC to Liu Xing, his cousin in this martial arts module - Bai Fei.

Bai Fei can now be said to be the chief breeder of the Bai Family Ranch. Almost all the feed is distributed through his hands, so he is also an important figure in the Bai Family Ranch. He also has the best relationship with Baihe City. of peers.

Therefore, with Bai Fei's support, Liu Xing does not need to worry about the fire in the backyard of Bai's ranch. By then, he will also be able to have fresh meat to eat, instead of only eating sausages with no spicy flavor.

As a native of Shu, Liu Xing must eat spicy sausages, but the problem is that although peppers have appeared in the Xinlong Empire, the number is too small, because these peppers are still ornamental plants, so if you want Using them to make sausage seasonings is not only far from enough, but also a little too luxurious.
