Chapter 77 The Art of Language

Yue Feng walked to the hawk stand and introduced it in detail: “This is a big blue kite, it’s big and works hard. If you want a good hawk, this is my first choice!

The one next to it is an eagle with a purple heart-shaped chest. This little eagle was caught very cleverly and very quickly.

The kite next to it has mixed hair on its chest. It is also very hardworking and courageous, and dares to take on big animals.

But I have to say one thing in advance, this eagle has a small flaw. Look at the side claw of its claw, it is missing a nail, which sometimes has a little impact on catching prey!

The last two are kites that were bred and raised in our local pine forests. Judging from the color of their feathers, they are slightly different from the other ones.

The eyes of these two eagles are light in color, which means they have been out of the nest for a short time. They are the easiest to train. The first time they went out, they recognized Shabanji and Feilong and worked very efficiently!
Overall, the five eagles in my house have all been carefully selected and trained by me, and they can all be considered good eagles!

No matter which one you choose, I can take it to the back mountain to try it out!”

After listening to Yue Feng’s introduction, Zhou Jianjun frowned slightly and looked at the Green Harrier again and again. After a few seconds, he asked in a deep voice: “Why is this Green Harrier so different in appearance and size from the other eagles?”

Yue Feng explained with a smile: “This is a two-year-old hawk, and its feathers have changed once. Other kites are young hawks of that year, and their breast stripes are vertical, while this one has horizontal stripes. The difference is very obvious, even those who don’t know much about hawks can tell the difference at a glance!”

“Is there a big difference between the one from that year and the one from two years ago?”

Yue Feng shook his head: “It’s not that different. In terms of work, this big blue kite is definitely the best!”

Hearing Yue Feng praising the Great Blue Harrier, Zhou Jianjun, who was suspicious by nature, directly passed this eagle from the selection list.

Although Yue Feng had been very polite since the three of them entered the room, Zhou Jianjun didn’t think Yue Feng would give him the best eagle.

The two families did not have a very deep relationship, but they had an old account of paying for a job introduction. Even if Yue Feng was kind, he had no reason to sell the best eagle in his family to himself, unless he was a fool.

“This big blue kite does look more beautiful!” Zhou Rui also echoed at this time.

Zhou Jianjun glanced at his son and asked, “What about this Purple Eagle?”

Yue Feng: “The purple eagle is very skillful in catching birds. He can do all kinds of tricks, such as bending, flipping, and air-holding. Apart from the big blue kite, he is the most skillful one among all the eagles! The only flaw is that he is a little smaller.”

“Is it bad to be small?”

“It doesn’t have much impact, it’s just that its physical strength is slightly worse than others, so you’ll catch a few fewer birds in a day. If you release them well, it won’t have much impact! If you don’t like the big blue kite, I also recommend the purple kite!” Yue Feng continued to add a few more words indifferently.

After listening to this, Zhou Jianjun nodded and his eyes fell on the two Earth Harriers at the back.

“You said these two are eagles bred locally? What are their characteristics?”

“These two are average, with no weaknesses and no obvious advantages. They are naturally good at recognizing Sand Chicken and Flying Dragon, so it’s easy to worry about them when they first start working in the fields!

This kind of native kite can be found in the pine forests of our mountains. Our local eagles breed later than those distributed further north from their breeding grounds, so these two eagles left the nest later than the previous two and are slightly less wild! Look at their eyes, the color is lighter than that of other eagles!” Yue Feng’s choice of words and sentences were very standard when introducing a row of eagles one by one. Even if an expert who knew how to identify eagles came, he could hardly find any loopholes in his words. From beginning to end, Yue Feng said that the big blue kite was a two-year-old eagle and lied, and there was almost no water in his words.

But the art of language is sometimes like this. What I tell you are all facts, but through conscious adjustment of the word order and emphasis, the person who listens to it will have different ideas in his heart. Especially if the buyer is someone like Zhou Jianjun who is extremely thoughtful and suspicious by nature, the effect will be even more obvious.

Zhou Jianjun, the old fox, never expected Yue Feng to be so accomplished. He only regarded him as a young man in his twenties who was a little smart, greedy for money, and did not listen to his parents’ advice or consider long-term development.

“I’ll discuss it with them!” Zhou Jianjun greeted Yue Feng, pulled his son, pointed his chin to the south wall, and the three of them walked to the south wall and whispered.

After discussing for a few minutes, the group came back and Zhou Jianjun pointed at the two worst kites on the shelf and said, “We’ve made an agreement! We want these two local eagles!”

Hearing this, Yue Feng’s actor-level acting skills instantly came online. He was seen panicking for a moment, and then he said in a low voice with some reluctance: “These two eagles have no outstanding advantages except for their small temperaments. Uncle Zhou, are you sure you want this one?

I personally don’t really recommend it… Otherwise, I’d like to give those Eagles a discount of twenty bucks each, would you consider it?”

Seeing Yue Feng’s micro-expressions and tone of voice, Zhou Jianjun felt more and more that his judgment was correct. He waved his hand and said, “Needless to say, a mild temper is the biggest advantage! I’ll leave those eagles that work well to you. I want these two!”

Yue Feng hesitated after hearing this. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth with some pain: “Let’s make it clear first. If you want these two Eagles, the price cannot be negotiated at all. 400 each!”

Originally, Zhou Jianjun expected that after selecting the eagle, he would have to bargain for the price. He couldn’t just give 400 yuan for free. Even if the price was ten yuan cheaper, saving twenty yuan would be a considerable amount.

But unexpectedly, after selecting Yue Feng’s two best eagles, Yue Feng took the initiative.

Zhou Jianjun was in a hurry to get to the point. He gritted his teeth and said, “If you don’t want to talk, then don’t talk. These are the two eagles. Come in and get some money!”

Yue Feng’s expression was still very ugly: “Let’s go inside!”

Soon, Zhou Jianjun came into the house and took out a thick stack of big unity bills from his arms.

There were eighty bills, all of which cost ten yuan each, and they gave off a special scent of ink.

Yue Feng took the money, carefully counted it twice to make sure there was no problem, and then said: “The money is fine, but buying an eagle is a big deal after all, and the money is not a small amount. Let’s be humble first and then gentlemen. We need to sign a sales agreement to avoid any problems in the future!”

Zhou Jianjun was also thinking the same thing, and nodded: “Okay, you write the agreement, do you want to find a witness?”

“There’s no need for witnesses. Both parties have to sign and put their fingerprints on it anyway, so there’s no need to worry about them denying it!”

“Okay! Listen to you!”

Soon, Yue Feng found the pen and white paper he had prepared in advance from the cupboard and began to write very neatly.

The time for the new book to be put into storage has come, and the ranking of the list has dropped immediately, but the good news is that the follow-up reading in the background has been pulled up again after a small fluctuation. I continue to ask for votes and support! Thank you all!
