There is a village where people don't like to eat mangoes. Now you have a lot of mangoes to sell to them. What will you do?
The merchants go to the village every day and shout, "Who has mangoes? I want to buy a lot." The merchants deliberately create demand.
In business thinking, this is called creating something out of nothing. The merchant went to buy mangoes every day. The purchase price was different every day. On the first day, he bought 10 yuan. The villagers didn't know whether it was true or not, so they tried to give a mango. The merchant really gave 10 yuan, so the whole village began to look for mangoes. The merchant raised the price to 1 yuan every day, 11 yuan on the second day, 13 yuan on the third day, and 14 yuan on the fourth day, with a daily increase of only 1 yuan.
In business thinking, this is called inertial thinking. On the fifth day, the villagers will have inertial thinking, and then someone will rush to buy all the mangoes at 14 yuan before you, hoping to sell them to you at 15 yuan on the sixth day to earn a difference of one yuan. In a market economy, you want such people, and you must let such people make money. Because once someone in the village makes money by reselling mangoes, a lot of people will follow suit.
In business thinking, this is called throwing a brick to attract jade. The merchant went back to the city for something one day, and his assistant said to the villagers, I will secretly sell all of the boss’s mangoes to you at the price of ten yuan. When the merchant comes back, you can sell them to him at the price of fifteen yuan, and you will get rich. The villagers went crazy and sold all their belongings to raise enough money to buy all the mangoes back. The assistant left with the money, and the merchant never came back. The villagers waited for a long time, they firmly believed that the merchant would come back and buy their mangoes for fifteen yuan. Finally, someone couldn’t wait any longer. After all, mangoes would go bad if they were not eaten, so he sold them to the merchant in the next town for three yuan. In fact, the merchant in the next town was also the insidious merchant. So now he has a cheaper bargaining chip,
Merchants are the dealers, mangoes are the currency, assistants are the insider information, and villagers are the retail investors.
