Chapter 357. The reason A/S is scary (2)
After-sales service.
In Korea, A/S is an act of quality control called Konglish of unknown nationality.
It was not a service that only existed when selling large items such as cars, refrigerators and TVs.
What if you expand the scope?
Financial insurance, even a local cafe or sundae gukbap restaurant.
It was a reality that after-sales service was provided for almost all commercial activities.
‘of course. Because customer satisfaction is the key to sales. That’s why when you attract guests, act kindly as if you’re going to remove all the liver and gallbladder. After selling things like that? While providing A/S in moderation, it prevents customers from depressing them so that they do not go out to other competitors.’
A carrot to deter the depressurization of customers.
With that, they lock customers in the fishery.
Switch to cage farming mode (?).
It is used as a driving force to draw and eat honeydew over and over again from customer farms.
That was the core of A/S, the light and salt of existence, the alpha and omega, and a concept like ramen soup in ramen.
‘That’s it. If you drink 10 cups of coffee, you get a free cup at a local cafe, right? Sundaegukbap restaurants also prepare mint candies and free mixed coffee at the checkout counter. If you look at it broadly, it’s all A/S. It’s the same here and now.’
Lloyd turned his head, continuing his thoughts.
Beside him, he saw King Venetogna, her bald forehead shining.
The old man with a white beard was no longer trembling with anxiety and fear as before.
Experience flight on Yongyong’s palm.
Unlike before, I was enjoying the thrill.
How bright are those eyes.
The glittering eyes almost faded the luster of his bald forehead.
‘Well, they seem to be satisfied with the initial service.’
He had cleared up the misunderstanding by showing the railroad tracks he had just built in the Pantara Mountains.
It was a yard that relieved much of the antipathy of King Venetogna with a sincere apology and sincere attitude.
So it was a service.
‘of course. What if you just clear up the misunderstanding and end it with less resentment? It’s a pity. I have more to pick up. It’s too wasteful to just pass it on.’
Misunderstanding solved.
I wanted to go one step further and buy a good impression.
Thus, the ‘Yongyongi flight experience’ service was provided.
As for service, this side had nothing to lose.
I’ll have to go back to the capital of Veneto anyway.
I have to take the kidnapped King Venetogna there.
the way to fly from the beginning.
Like providing a rare service.
Packed in a plausible way and made a lot of splashes.
That was the reality of the service Lloyd was providing to King Venetogna.
But his service did not end there.
“Hey, worthy ruler of the kingdom of Veneto, do you like the flying experience?”
“Heh heh heh. good good I didn’t know that Gwa-in would have such an experience in his old age. It is also a new feeling to look at the home of my people in my territory at a glance like this.”
“If so, may I ask you a favor?”
“You mean a favor?”
“It’s nothing grand. I just wanted to know what it would be like to go back to the capital and directly tell the people there about the trade routes of the Pantara Mountains.”
“…Heh heh heh?”
A smile appeared on King Venetogna’s lips, asking, ‘Look at this guy?’
“Can Gwain do that?”
“Because he is the King of the Veneto Kingdom.”
Lloyd shrugs.
He said it as if it were very natural.
“The opening of the trade route in the Pantara Mountains will be a great starting point that will change the future of the Kingdom of Veneto and the game. But how dare an outsider like me inform about such a thing? I think that it would be the most natural thing for a worthy ruler of the kingdom of Veneto to inform the people.”
“In addition, can I inform the people of Gwain of the will of the Magentano royal family who sent you?”
“If you do so, I will be honored.”
Lloyd grinned.
King Venetogna looked at Lloyd with meaningful eyes.
“Are you quite a crafty person?”
“I will not deny it.”
“okay. Thank you for being so honest with me. This is meant to establish the prestige of the guain in the capital and at the same time to bind the guain to his own words. Is it right?”
“You saw right through.”
“okay. I guess so. What in the world is free?”
“But you will surely be satisfied.”
“I hope so.”
King Venetogna and Lloyd.
A similar bitter smile bloomed on both of their lips.
Lloyd stuck out his tongue.
‘Whoa. Even the king here is very attentive.’
Also, the ruler of a country is the ruler.
Thinking so, I glanced at the king’s profile.
‘Ride the Yongyong back to the capital. In addition to such an overwhelming return, the king directly announced the opening of the Pantara Mountains trade route in front of the people of the capital and declared that cooperation with the Magentano royal family would begin…At the same time as providing such a prestige-building service, I tried to make the choice of the Kingdom of Veneto tied to the king’s remarks. I figured it out right away.’
The king is the ruler of a country.
A declaration made by such a king in front of the people of his capital city.
It is no different from a strong public declaration.
So what about the kingdom of Veneto after that?
You will not be able to choose against that proclamation.
What if you make a choice against it?
‘Because the king’s remarks will lose all credibility and authority. That would mean that Veneto Kingdom’s diplomatic credibility will be lost in the international arena in the future.’
Direct trade with Magentano through the Pantara Mountains.
You will never be able to reject that trade relationship.
In order to maintain public confidence, we will consider ourselves as an active trading partner of Magentano.
‘Anyway, this kind of relationship itself would be mutually beneficial.’
It certainly wouldn’t be a loss to the Veneto Kingdom.
while thinking so.
Soon the capital was approaching.
Lloyd grabbed King Venetogna by the shoulder.
“I will descend from now on. The airflow will be strong, so please be careful.”
Whoa! Whoo!
Yongyongyi finished downhill mode (?) and switched to descent mode.
That is, it started flapping its wings.
The air broke with a mighty sound.
The massive body slowed down and lowered its altitude.
The capital, which was the size of a pea, soon grew closer to the size of a ping pong ball, a watermelon, a roundabout, and a baseball stadium.
And finally like Bill Gates singing Microsoft.
It landed lightly in the square.
Aaaaaaaaaaaang-!
A thunderous roar swept through the square.
The flower bed, which had been crushed when I first landed earlier, has now become a soft powder. The flower garden manager’s blood, sweat and tears flow…Whatever it was, Lloyd didn’t care.
“ruler? Now tell me.”
“I will.”
He supported the king on top of Yongyong’s palm.
The king took a step forward, and he stepped back.
On the other hand, he glanced at Yongyong.
‘Hey, put it up.’
Creeping!
Upon receiving Lloyd’s signal, Yongyong gently raised his palm.
Naturally, he occupied the center of the plaza and raised his palms in a dignified posture.
King Venetogna stood tall on the palm of his hand.
The service did not end there.
‘Hey, it’s your turn this time.’
Lloyd’s eyes turned to Xaviel.
Realizing the intent of the wink, Xaviel quietly stepped out.
He approached King Venetogna’s side and put a hand on his shoulder.
The moment Venetogna was about to startle, he spoke first as if to reassure him.
“Speak and I will turn the volume up.”
“Is that possible?”
“Yes, a little.”
It’s not difficult if you use the dark simbeop.
Nodding his head, Xaviel injected some mana into King Venetogna’s body.
The injected mana covered vocal cords and vocal organs.
It formed a passage through which the sound could be amplified.
It was thanks to that.
“Kuhm-hmm.”
…Big hum! Hmmm! hmm!
“…!”
The king’s unintentional clearing of his throat was amplified into a tremendous sound and galloped around the plaza.
The king himself, who had cleared his throat, was even more startled.
“it’s okay. Please continue.”
The king felt relieved and confident at Xaviel’s words.
Finally, I looked down at the square with slightly calmed eyes.
“….”
It was quiet around the square.
People surprised by the reappearance of the bone dragon.
The soldiers seem to have been dispatched in their own way to save the kidnapped (?).
Most of them were paying attention this way with tense eyes.
King Venetogna opened his mouth as if to appease them.
“As you can see now, the wine is safe and the bone dragon respects it, so please everyone be at ease.”
…Be serious! do it! la!
The king’s calm request was amplified and spread widely around the square.
It was from then.
His calm words continued.
The bone dragon did not come to invade this place today.
The Magentano family is a strong ally of our Veneto.
In fact, a trade route was built in the Pantara Mountains without anyone noticing. He said that only he and Magentano’s top leadership were aware of the construction.
It is said that the construction was carried out while maintaining strict secrecy, fearing that if the information leaked out, neighboring countries would interfere with the construction.
As such, he skillfully mixed truth and lies and declared it as if he were reading it.
“Therefore, as of today, our Veneto royal family will reestablish itself on the international stage as a direct trade partner with the Magentano royal family, which will bring even greater prosperity to wine and the royal family of wine.”
…This is it! Rhoda! all!
The proud declaration of King Venetogna knocked on everyone’s ears.
Soon, the people of the capital who realized the meaning were amazed.
The Bone Dragon in a state of majesty.
Their king stood tall above the bone dragon.
As such, everyone knelt down at the declaration and the appearance of the heart becoming grand just by looking at it. Obedience, respect and gratitude were expressed.
Thanks to this, even King Venetogna’s heart thumped.
‘Whoa.’
I never thought that I would give a speech on top of the dragon’s palm.
I didn’t even know that today would be so diverse.
Of course, I felt much more refreshed.
‘Bond Dragon really covets this. Guain has ruled the kingdom for 19 years and has never given a speech that makes everyone obey so naturally.’
One bone dragon seemed to be much more effective than a grand parade mobilizing thousands of soldiers.
King Venetogna was very satisfied with the reaction of the people of the capital.
Lloyd felt the same feeling of great satisfaction.
‘Hmm good. It’s perfect.’
His gaze scanned the people of the capital.
The result came out exactly as intended from the beginning.
Lend the power of the bone dragon to King Venetogna.
Thanks to that, King Venetogna is very satisfied with the service.
Then what about himself?
‘We have to put straws in based on customer satisfaction.’
This is the yard where King Venetogna was satisfied with the service.
In addition, because of self-proclaiming, it became impossible to escape(?) from the swamp of this service.
So, the time to put the straw in should be right now.
Recalling that fact, Lloyd moved.
I made Xaviel back with a wink.
The vacancy was quickly filled.
After occupying the side position of King Venetogna.
He wore a smile like an excellent salesperson of the year.
He spoke quietly in a voice full of the motto of customer satisfaction, trust, and honesty.
“You are wonderful. It was a truly moving speech.”
“…Khumm Hmm! is it?”
“yes. Seeing how my hands are shaking like this without even realizing it.”
“Heh heh heh. The wine was just walking on the carpet you laid.”
“no. I dare to think that using the laid board is a true skill.”
“Hmm, I can smell flattery.”
“…Did you catch it?”
“of course. It looks like I have something else to ask of you.”
“…Did you catch that?”
“Don’t go around and talk. After all, the wine is in the palm of your hand.”
King Venetogna laughed bitterly.
In fact, he was well aware of his situation.
A direct trade route with Magentano.
That could be an invasion route for troops to move.
So, the one holding the hilt now is the Magentano royal family.
In particular, it is Lloyd Frontera who conveys Magentano’s will in front of him.
“Hani Gain and his royal family should thank you and the Magentano royal family. It’s because you guys reached out the hand of friendship like this first. Hana and wine are not stupid. I also know that a favor like this won’t come cheap. so you say What is the value of this favor you showed me today?”
Again, that’s the law.
Nothing is free in this world.
Thinking so, King Venetogna asked.
Likewise, Lloyd also thought the same and answered deftly.
“yes. If you dare to answer that question, here it is.”
Sharak!
Answering, Lloyd pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket.
They were two contracts written in advance before coming here today.
“All the details I’m asking for are listed here. Please take a look.”
“….”
King Venetogna was at a loss for words.
As soon as I saw it, I knew it was a contract.
Thanks to this, I was able to realize that this guy had been determined from the beginning to drink sweet water today.
‘Tsk.’
Venetogna opened the contract, feeling the feelings of a bee caught in a spider’s web.
and after a few seconds.
On the one hand, indignant.
On the one hand, I had to be relieved.
