Fantastic Life Tycoon - Chapter 14

Brian looked at the rows of products feeling a pain in his heart. Then, he came to the section with robots.

There was only one type which was affordable for him right now. Brian clicked on the virtual interface inside his mind and config option appearrd where Brian could choose certain outer characteristics.

There’s even an option for gender. Brian thought Ajit it and decided against it at the moment. It would be a problem to get a female robot when he didn’t have a place to stay besides the factory.

Brian bought 2 bots and two black summoning balls appeeard in his system space.

Brian used them up and told them their names. Rob two and Rob Three. They had different names on their documents made by the system but Brian didn’t bother learning those names.

Rob Two was assigned at the store and 3 at the factory. One would follow Brian around.

With only 50k in balance, Brian didn’t want to spend any more money till his pillows got popular.

There was only some work left to do. A sign which looked attractive enough was needed.

Brian had no experience and the bots weren’t designed to be creative. Brian decided to get a simple hoarding with Magic Technology writtenin a standard sans serif font.

The next thing was a take some pics and register as a seller on Amazon. Brian decided to make website for his company later. He didn’t want to risk big onto his own coding skills. When engineering bots could be bought, there would be time to publicize his own website. Brian still wanted to hire a female staff who could provide demos for the pillows.

After setting up the online store, Brian decided to get some hoardings about 5 mins or free pillow. This way people would atleast come and try the pillow.

It would take a day for all the design upgrades so Brian left the store with two bots. He would buy guns and tasers for the new bots and then drop one at the factory. It needed someone to look after it.

It felt really weird going in a arms shop. Rob was like a fish in water there. He had bought one earlier as well.

Brian finally went back to his dorm room to complete the Amazon seller registrations. Brian also bought the domain name for MagicTech. It was good to be prepared.

The company couldn’t go on like this. It was about time to hire an employee who could work for him but there was still no office space. It would take loads of money to rent an office floor.

Let’s just sell some pillows first. I can expand aftrr I sell some pillows. Should have waited a bit more for the casino trick. I wouldn’t be struggling so much.

Brian decided to call to look for a store manager after the initial phase was over. He would be managing the store himself.

——————————————-

It took two days to get the decorations and hoardings to come. With the two bots, Brian was at the store. He had hired a temporary person to distribute pamphlets outside the store to attract the attention to the store.

Various benefits of the pillow were listed like deep sleep is reached faster while also helping people suffering from problems of insomnia.

There were some people who had shown up at the store. Most of them were skeptical about the sleeping pillow.

One of the guys volunteered to try it. He came into the glass chamber where the bot instructed him about the usage.

A clock was kept outside the glass window. A person would go in and try the pillow since it was free anyway. There’s no harm in trying. The bed looked cosy to sleep on.

The People outside saw how the person fell asleep in just 2 minutes.

“He must be with the store owner. Is this some scam going on. Let me try, I will end this farce.” A big man protested after seeing the first person falling asleep.

There was similar wave of distrust going in the crowd.

The man who was comfortably sleeping was woken up by the bot.

The man looked unbelievably at the room and was a little suspicious at how he had fallen asleep in front of so many people.

Is the room having some gases that makes one feel sleepy, he couldn’t believe that their could be a magical pillow. Magic Tech, I haven’t heard about this company. Is it a new thing. What’s the price. This feels good to sleep anyway.

The man went to the counter with an embarrased face and asked, “How much is the pillow?”

“It’s one nine nine.”

“20 dollars is too cheap for it. It’s so much better than am ordinary pillow.”

Brian had a black line when he heard the six dollar comment.

“It’s one ninety nine.”

“What, Isn’t it ripping people off. It’s just a pillow at the end of the day.”

“Sir, Our companies pillows works on principle of brain waves to advance the REM cycle closer. You will feel like you slept for a longer time with this pillow. Better sleep is also good from children, we have thinner version just for growing children at 199 as well.”

“What a load of crap. How can we believe this brain wave bullshit.”

Rob Two came forward and asked the man to leave if he wasn’t interested in buying. There were plenty of people who wanted to give it a try.

The man really wanted the pillow but it was too expensive. He didn’t want to be the first one to try. What if it didn’t work after going home. It could be an elaborate scam.
