Why didn't you tell me earlier that my little sister is still waiting for me?

Looking at Sang Biao's smug face, Yang Mi was stunned. How could she forget about this bastard?

However, Yang Mi was only stunned for a moment. After she came to her senses, she quickly squatted down with a flattering smile on her face: "Brother Biao, you are the best, right? Look at how wonderful my performance was just now, shouldn't you vote for me?"

Sang Biao took two steps back in disgust, typing away with his paws: [Stop it! I won't fall for it!]

Yang Mi naturally wouldn't give up easily, and continued to flatter him, "Brother Biao, I'll treat you to a big meal after the show is recorded! Just order whatever you want!"

Sang Biao rolled his eyes: [Is your meal missing? ]

"Then...then let me introduce you to a beautiful little bitch?" Yang Mi blinked with an expression that said "you know what I mean."

Sang Biao glanced at Yang Mi with disdain: [I am different from Lin Gou, don't use the same tactics you used against Lin Gou against me.]

Lin Bufan didn't expect that he would be the one to suffer the consequences while he was just watching the show. He immediately flew into a rage: "You bastard! Are you itching for trouble again? I must loosen your bones today!" As he said that, he was about to rush over to beat Sang Biao, but he was held back by the quick-eyed and quick-handed teachers He and Huang on his left and right.

"Afan, calm down! Calm down! There are cameras nearby!"

"Don't be impulsive, Afan! Brother Biao just said a few truths, there's no need to get angry!"

Lin Bufan looked at Teacher Huang who was trying to dissuade him anxiously, and couldn't help but question his character!

Just as everyone was trying to dissuade Lin Bufan, Sang Biao quickly typed: [I vote for Yang Mi.]

Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned and didn't understand why Sang Biao suddenly changed his mind.

However, Sang Biao's next words left everyone completely speechless!

[Remember what you said. If you dare to lie to me, I will let my fans cyberbully you!]

Everyone:...

You are not much better than Lin Gou... bah, not much better than Lin Bufan!

Sure enough, like person, like dog!

Yang Mi didn't care about that and happily took a bottle of Reverse Clock from Lin Bufan: "Thank you, Brother Biao! I keep my word!"

Next came the voting for second place, and Lin Bufan was still the first to raise his hand: "I vote for Sister Zifeng!"

……

Without Sang Biao's disruption, the final ranking was quickly announced: Yang Mi first, Zifeng's sister second, Teacher He third, Teacher Huang fourth, and Song Qian fifth.

In fact, the third place should have belonged to Sang Biao, but because he was afraid of being beaten by Lin Bufan, he said he didn’t want the prize, so he was removed from the list!

After receiving the reversal clock, Mr. Huang looked at the small bottle in his hand with a look of doubt on his face: "Afan, is such a small thing really worth ten million?"

Lin Bufan exchanged glances with Zifeng's sister while saying without turning his head, "I'm selling it for 1000 million, so the cost is definitely not 1000 million. I should make some profit, right?"

Teacher Huang nodded, thinking that what Lin Bufan said made sense: "That's true. So how much does this thing cost?"

"1000."

Peng Peng thought Lin Bufan was talking about 1000 million, scratched his head and said, "Then Master, you didn't make any money either, right?"

Lin Bufan couldn't help but look at Peng Peng in surprise. How could someone so young have such low intelligence at such an early age? What was he going to do in the future?

"I earned it!"

Peng Peng was still confused. "The cost was 1000 million, and you sold it for 1000 million. How can you make money? If you add in all the other expenses, you're even losing money!"

Lin Bufan finally understood that Peng Peng's IQ was not only not bad, but he was also very clever. He even knew that if the cost and the selling price were the same, he would lose money. It was just that his ears might not be working well!

"I said the cost is 1000 yuan, not 1000 million!"

"what?!"

Upon hearing this, everyone exclaimed in unison, and the yard instantly exploded.

"The cost is 1000 yuan and you sell it for 1000 million? Afan, you still say you are not robbing people?" Teacher Huang's eyes widened and the reverse clock in his hand almost fell to the ground.

Teacher He couldn't help but shake his head: "Afan, your profit margin is too exaggerated, isn't it?"

"The prices are clearly marked, and we are honest and fair. How can this be considered robbery?" Lin Bufan spread his hands, looking innocent. "At most, this is considered monopoly sales."

Yang Mi, who had just been gloating over her first-place finish, was immediately furious when she heard the cost was 1000 yuan: "Junior Lin! Aren't you trying to rip us off? We fought so hard for a 1000 yuan item!"

"Sister Mi, what you said is not true!" Lin Bufan spread his hands like a little bear: "When giving something as a gift, you must state the selling price. Who said the cost price? If you say the cost price, then are those luxury goods still luxury goods?"

Hearing this, everyone was speechless for a moment.

Just as everyone was silent, the quick-witted Peng Peng found a breakthrough: "But Master, can you really sell this thing for 1000 million? It's only worth that price if it can be sold, right?"

Lin Bufan sighed, his expression suddenly becoming heavy: "The price is so high, there's nothing I can do about it!"

Seeing Lin Bufan's pretentious expression, everyone couldn't help but complain in their hearts: You have no choice?! As if this price wasn't set by you?

Lin Bufan seemed to see through everyone's thoughts and shook his head with a wry smile: "I know what you are thinking. But do you know? When I developed this product, my first reaction was not joy, but pain."

Lin Bufan stood up and looked off into the distance, leaving only a proud back to the crowd. "Can you imagine? How many people in this world have lost their jobs and dignity due to aging? How many families have fallen into hardship due to the illness of their elders? I originally thought, how wonderful it would be if everyone could use this product..."

At this point, Lin Bufan's voice choked a little, but he quickly regained his composure. "But the reality is, although 1000 yuan a month may not seem like much, it's still an unbearable burden for many families. I want to kill the thief, but I'm powerless... Ugh, I'm wrong, wrong. What I meant was that although I wanted to make it free for everyone, my financial situation didn't allow it!"

The crowd, who were originally somewhat moved by Lin Bufan's concern for the people of the world, couldn't help but roll their eyes when they heard his words!

Lin Bufan didn't have time to pay attention to the people's rolling eyes. He turned around suddenly, his eyes flashing with excitement, and his voice trembled slightly: "I've been thinking hard for months, and finally came up with a perfect solution - product classification!"

Lin Bufan walked quickly to the center of the yard, gesturing with his hands as if to describe a grand blueprint: "We divide our products into several grades based on their effectiveness! The most common one is priced at 100 yuan! If you are a low-income person or a person with a disability, you can enjoy an additional % discount!"

Teacher He exclaimed in surprise, "100 yuan?! Then Afan, you're going to lose money, right?"

Lin Bufan took a deep breath and his expression became serious again: "Teacher He is right, this will indeed lose money.

And everyone should know that the cost of any product is not just the material cost. It also includes massive R&D costs. From the laboratory to clinical trials, from approval to production, each link consumes countless manpower and resources. Not to mention the subsequent expenses such as transportation, warehousing, and management.

This is why I need to do product grading, otherwise I really can’t afford the high cost! ”

Teacher Huang frowned and asked in confusion, "Ah Fan, what do you mean by product classification? Can you explain it to us in detail?"

Lin Bufan snapped his fingers and said, "Teacher Huang, you've hit the nail on the head now. I'll explain it to you all!

We've divided our products into four tiers based on their effectiveness. First up is the top-tier "Supreme Invincible Class," priced at 1000 million yuan, and this is the one I'm giving you. I've already explained the effects of this version: it can reverse physiological aging, allowing a 60-year-old to have the physical functions of a 40-year-old or younger, while also increasing the body's maximum lifespan by 15-20 years.

What a name, you really came up with it!

"Next is the 'Invincible Klass Model'. Its effect is 5% lower than the 'Supreme Invincible Klass Model', but its price is only one tenth of the 'Supreme Invincible Klass Model', which is 100 million. It's quite a bargain!"

You call 100 million a good deal?! Don’t you even know how to spell the word “good deal”?

"Next is the 'Awesome Klass Model'. Its effect is also 5% lower than the 'Invincible Awesome Klass Model', but its price is only % of the 'Invincible Awesome Klass Model', only yuan. It can be said that buying it is a great deal!"

Damn, so the way you named each model is to lack an adjective?

"As for the last one, it is naturally what I mentioned before, the ordinary version, but I prefer to call it the "Awesome Version". Its effect is the same as the "Awesome Class Version", but it is reduced by 5%, and its price is only 100 yuan, which can be said to be no different from giving it away for free!

The reason why I..."

At this moment, Teacher He suddenly raised his hand to interrupt Lin Bufan's chatter: "Wait! Ah Fan, what did you call the ordinary version?"

Lin Bufan said in confusion: "It's an awesome item, what's wrong?"

"No, no!" Teacher He waved his hands repeatedly. "According to your naming convention, the Supreme Invincible Awesome Klass Model, the Invincible Awesome Klass Model, and the Awesome Klass Model, then the most basic one should be called the Klass Model! Did you say that wrong?"

Lin Bufan spread his hands and said, "You're right, it's called the Awesome Style."

Teacher He was a little anxious: "But your rules are not like this!"

"so?"

"So you have to call it Kraskuan!"

"I won't! I want to call it the awesome one!"

"No, you have to change!"

"I'm not!"

"Ah ...

Seeing that Teacher He was about to lose his temper, Teacher Huang and Peng Peng quickly supported Teacher He from both sides: "Teacher He, calm down! Calm down!"

"Let me go! I have to teach this brat a lesson today! How can you give him a name like that?! Isn't this just to annoy me?!"

Although Teacher He tried his best, unfortunately, he still failed!

Seeing that Teacher He was held down, Lin Bufan continued his previous introduction: "Think about it, if I price all my products at 1000 million, will ordinary people never be able to afford them? But if I set a unified price of 100 yuan, the company will soon go bankrupt, and no one will be able to use them.

That’s why I came up with this tiered pricing approach.

Rich people spend 1000 million to buy the best effect, and they enjoy the best service;

The middle class can get good results by spending 100 million or 1;

Ordinary people only need 100 yuan to enjoy the basic version of anti-aging products.

I do this for one purpose: to make technology truly beneficial to everyone. Even if there's an imbalance between income and expenditure, or even if I have to plug holes myself, I have no regrets!

As Lin Bufan declared, the courtyard suddenly fell silent. The dazzling sunlight shone upon him, casting a golden halo around him. A gentle breeze blew past, causing Lin Bufan's hair to flutter gently, and he seemed enveloped in a sacred atmosphere.

Teacher He stopped struggling, feeling guilty. "Afan cares so much about the people, and I'm arguing with him over a name. Damn it..."

Peng Peng lowered his head, not daring to look directly at Lin Bufan: "Master, for the sake of everyone, would rather pay for it himself... I actually thought he was making money in a dishonest way before, damn me!"

Zheng Yan bit his lip, feeling inexplicably guilty: "I don't know why, but I also feel that I deserve to die..."

……

The reason why everyone felt this way was naturally not because of how well Lin Bufan spoke, but because Lin Bufan secretly activated his emotion rendering skills that had not been used for a long time!

Lin Bufan did this not for the people present, but to try whether it would have any effect on the audience in front of the screen after the show was broadcast!

……

After the talent show, everyone started their day's work. According to the arrangement of the program team, they went to the fields to pick radishes in exchange for food. Teacher Huang used these radishes and the food he exchanged to make a table full of dishes, and everyone ate to their heart's content.

After dinner, the Mushroom House gradually quieted down. Moonlight streamed across the courtyard, casting a silvery glow over everything. Everyone retired to their rooms, leaving only the gentle chirping of insects echoing through the night.

Sister Zifeng tiptoed to Lin Bufan's door and knocked gently. The door opened quickly. Lin Bufan seemed to have expected her to come and smiled as he let her in.

A single dim light illuminated the two people's faces. Zifeng diligently studied martial arts and singing techniques with Lin Bufan. Time slipped by quietly, and moonlight streamed through the window, casting mottled shadows on the floor.

A few hours later, as they were about to part, Zifeng's sister pursed her lips and whispered, "Brother Bufan, I also want to do my part for the common people. If your income is insufficient to cover your expenses and no one wants to buy high-end models, I am willing to use some of my savings to make up for your shortfall."

Lin Bufan was stunned for a moment, then tapped Zifeng's head lightly in annoyance: "What are you thinking about? How could I lose money?"

Zifeng rubbed the area that had been knocked and analyzed it carefully, "But... the effect of the Awesome model and the Supreme Invincible Awesome Class model only differs by 14.26%, but the price difference is a full double. People are not stupid, they will definitely not buy the most expensive one, and then you will definitely lose money."

Lin Bufan touched his chin, revealing a thoughtful expression: "Sister Zifeng, your analysis is very reasonable. It is true that there are not many people like this who are stupid and rich. But have you ever thought about, what if, I mean what if..."

Lin Bufan paused for a moment, giving Zifeng enough time to think, and then he said quietly, "Even if I sell them all for 100 yuan, I can still make some money."

Sister Zifeng: ...
