During
the Song Dynasty, there lived a man named Wang Po. He was confused because his
melons did not sell.
“These
melons are from Western Xia. The people here are ignorant and do not want them.
What shall I do?”
Hence,
with his glib tongue, Wang Po praised his melons to passers-by.
“Come
look at my melons! My melons are fragrant and sweet, guaranteed to make you
come back for more! Free tasting!”
After
tasting Wang Po’s melons, everyone loved them and word soon spread. The emperor
Shen Zong was out on his inspection one day and tasted Wang Po’s melons.
“Mmm.
This melon is really good!” said Shen Zong with his thumb up.
“The
melons are good! Why do you still need to promote them? Are you afraid that
they won’t sell?” asked Shen Zong.
“This
melon is a variety from Western Xia. The people here do not know about it. I
only managed to sell after praising them myself,” replied Wang Po.
“Sellers
should be like Wang Po, who gives due praise to his products,” said Shen Zong
to everyone.
