I agree. A story like this you take with several grains of salt, but it still makes for an interesting story and also expands your boundaries regarding negotiation with vendors

Yes, but the advice to hit someone would only make sense if vendors
had a known reaction to being hit during haggling, or if MMY had some
mystical intuition that hitting was the best thing to do in this case.

I'm somewhat doubting the story simply because MMY usually does
things out of the ordinary for some practical reason, even if I don't
agree with the reasoning OR the hoped-for outcome. Yelling at lazy
workmen is a time-honored tradition in most cultures. Hitting a
vendor doesn't seem to be, but perhaps I'm wrong.
