The businessman listens aptly, his attention focused on every word out of my mouth.
"So, these beans... you say that they're magic?"
"Yes."
"Well how do I know that?"
"Look at them. Aren't they spectacular!?"
"I mean... they're ok...."
"You know... If you're not interested, I have people lined up for these around the corner."
"No! Wait! I'm very very serious about this opportunity! Yes! Um...What am I looking for exactly?"
"Observe the shine. Look at the natural texture. Can't you just feel their power? Ignore the tangible 'bean', concentrate on the intangible magical properties."
"They're amazing. I'll take five hundred."
"I only have three left. Don't worry. We can work something out."
God bless this wonderful economic circumstance we find ourselves in.
