Luo Hai could not agree to this price.
But his father, Soul Breaking Saber Luo Wu, personally came to the Broken Star Club.
When Luo Wu, who was at the peak of Heaven Realm, saw more than one hundred of the newest cultivation cabins in the Broken Star Club's cultivation center, he could not help but suck in a sharp breath. He praised Meng Chao for being rich and being able to create such a huge situation.
Meng Chao told him the truth. The one hundred cultivation cabins were donated anonymously by a mysterious person, and Qin Hu was in charge of the actual operations of the Broken Star Club. Meng Chao was just a middleman and did some insignificant work.
Luo Wu thought about it for a while before he agreed to Meng Chao's price readily.
As for the problem of disrupting the end market, it was simple. He just had to change the cheap special edition sabers into simpler packaging. The scabbards were also made in the most inconspicuous style so that only the members of the Broken Star Club could buy them. That would be enough.
As for whether the Broken Star Club members would sell the scabbards on second-hand websites after they bought them, that was another matter.
Aside from that, Luo Wu also generously donated twenty of the newest cultivation cabins to the Broken Star Club.
In his words, "Meng Chao, before the Ultimate Style was born, the hundreds of thousands of broken-star superhumans in Dragon City were a dormant force. Now, you've awakened this force."
The first batch of this special edition Surging Thunder saber was eight thousand.
With a price that surpassed the bottom line and a stable quality, along with Meng Chao personally practicing and teaching the Future One Hundred Saber Techniques, the saber shot to fame in the Broken Star Club.
In less than half an hour, the eight thousand sabers were all sold. Later on, they ordered another fifteen thousand sabers.
With the increase in the number of sabers, the cost was naturally reduced. When it was spread over the total cost of the sabers, Meng Chao did not suffer a lot of losses, but he managed to gain the trust of a large number of broken-star superhumans. He also promoted the Surging Lightning brand. It was a win-win situation.
Later, Meng Chao did the same thing and organized a few group purchases that he had carefully selected.
He was not an expert when it came to appraising cultivation machines and gene medicine.
But he had his own ultimate moves.
Meng Chao asked Qin Hu to search for a catalog of cultivation machines and gene medicine that were suitable for middle-grade and low-grade superhumans in the market. He wanted to see the manufacturers and awaken the memories from his previous life in the depths of his brain.
He specifically looked for manufacturers that were not well-known at the moment, so their products were not too expensive, and it was easier to negotiate group discounts.
Of course, these factories were all established brands in Dragon City that existed more than ten years later or even decades later in his previous life.
In Meng Chao's eyes, since these factories could stand tall in the coming decades and not fall, the quality of their products had to be outstanding.
Just as Meng Chao expected, the products he brought into the Broken Star Club were all good and cheap, and they greatly increased the members' cultivation.
Besides, the group purchases helped the manufacturers earn back their funds and build up their fame. They even helped a few manufacturers who were supposed to be in a difficult position for a long time to step onto the stage of glory ahead of schedule. They contributed quite a lot to the increase of Dragon City's overall fighting strength.
This was a pleasant surprise that Meng Chao did not expect.
Speaking of which, the group purchase was just a method to gather popularity. Meng Chao still hoped that once the Broken Star Club became stronger, it could make Dragon City's gloomy future a little brighter.
Hence, no matter how difficult his training in the university and the training center of the abnormal beast research department was, he tried his best to find time to come to the Broken Star Club and teach the broken-star superhumans the essence of future martial arts, fighting techniques, and gun techniques without holding back.
At the same time, he also got to know the various situations in Dragon City through the broken-star superhumans, especially the various aspects of the people at the bottom of society.
In his previous life, Meng Chao was also one of the citizens at the bottom of society during the Monster War.
But at that time, he was worried about his parents' safety and was filled with self-pity. He did not have the time to care about how the normal citizens lived their lives.
In this life, in just a few short months, he came into contact with more than ten thousand broken-star superhumans. Through their mouths, he learned about countless lifestyles and industries he had never heard of before. He also learned about the requests in the hearts of the millions of normal citizens who were unknown to the public. He also noticed all sorts of subtle conflicts hidden under Dragon City's flourishing appearance.
"There are more than ten people in a family, and they're all squeezed into dark and narrow shacks. Since the soil around them attracts pests, they often destroy the sewers, so they don't even have flush toilets. They can only use normal toilets, and the stench is horrible.
"The schools attached to the communities aren't good. There are only two broken-star superhumans among the teaching staff. They don't even have a single one-star superhuman. The enrollment rate can't go up.
"Lads in their twenties can't find jobs. Now, only superhumans can take up jobs that pay slightly higher wages and can pay enough for insurance.
"If they can't find a wife, the girls nowadays would rather be the mistresses of superhumans than marry normal people. Of course, what they say makes sense. There are plenty of monsters outside, and only superhumans can protect their wives and children. Besides, space is scarce in Dragon City, and the average living space is small. If they marry a normal person, they won't even have the privacy of a married couple. How are they supposed to get married then?"
"In fact, there are people who say that monogamy is a bad habit from Earth, because at that time, people were all the same, and it was the same no matter who they married. But now that we've transmigrated to the Other World, the superhumans are really powerful, so their genes are definitely really strong. Of course, we have to plant more seeds so that our powerful genes can be passed down. That's the only way for human civilization to become stronger and eventually conquer all of the Other World."
"It's a waste of resources to pass down the weak genes of normal people. It's better if we don't pass down this kind of burden."
These were the information the broken-star superhumans gave Meng Chao when they chatted during their free time.
It did not sound like it was a matter of national importance.
But Meng Chao felt that even a dam of one thousand kilometers could be destroyed by an ant's nest. Who knew whether these small conflicts would become an important reason for Dragon City's failure after accumulating for a long time?
"Most of the broken-star superhumans come from the bottom of society, but we've stepped onto the path of superhumans, so we're naturally the bridge between superhumans and normal people.
Once Meng Chao seized the chance, he told the broken-star superhumans, "If Dragon City really wants to be united and is unbreakable, we'll be the most important glue that binds them together.
"Over the past few months, everyone's cultivation realms and fighting strength have increased. Next, we won't be satisfied with our current status, income, and status in society.
"Indeed. I believe that broken-star superhumans will be even more important in the future Dragon City, but individual strength is still weak. No matter what sort of trouble we run into, as long as all broken-star superhumans are united, we'll definitely be able to solve it!"
Meng Chao did not know whether the broken-star superhumans listened to his words.
But soon, something happened that made him and quite a number of veteran fighters in the superhuman circle realize that the Broken Star Club was not just a public welfare organization that ate, boasted, and did group purchases.
This matter was related to a bad habit in Dragon City.
The people in Dragon City were fierce, and when they ran into a dispute, they were used to using their fists to do the talking.
In the end, the fights for benefits in the business world would usually turn into an open fight.
This was a bad habit that had been around since the zombie crisis.
In that lawless apocalyptic world, fists and weapons were the only laws.
After the Survival Committee, the Supernatural Tower, and the Red Dragon Army were formed, they naturally wanted to establish the authority of the law and forbid private fights among the people.
But the normal citizens of Dragon City had the strength of the sprinting champions and boxing champions on Earth. All of them were martial artists.
Superhumans were also the amalgamation of mobile ammunition depots and self-propelled artillery.
Heroes used their martial arts to break the law.
With sharp weapons in hand, killing intent rose in their hearts.
Superhumans were wild and untamed people. They were not willing to obey the restraints of any disciplinary organization. The stronger they were, the more they could fight against one hundred people and an entire city on their own.
The Survival Committee could not use forceful measures against all superhumans.
After all, the peerless fighters who formed the Survival Committee and the nine great mega corporations behind them were the first ones who did not want to be restrained.
Besides, the cost of restraining superhumans was really high, and when they faced monster invasions, superhumans were the main fighting force. If they were too harsh on superhumans, it was inevitable that their comrades would be disappointed.
In resignation, the Survival Committee could only compromise. As long as they did not go overboard, they would let the citizens solve their own conflicts.
They only set the most basic rule. As long as their lives were not in danger, superhumans were not allowed to attack normal people.
As for the fights between superhumans, they were considered sparring. As long as no one died, it was fine for them to stay in medical cabins for a few more days.
Because of it, the normal people had protection, but the broken-star superhumans suffered.
Theoretically speaking, broken-star superhumans were still superhumans. Naturally, they had to "spar" with other superhumans every few days.
But broken-star superhumans were at the bottom of the superhuman circle, and they were also the weakest. Who could they "cut" against?!
Because of this rule, they had to suffer a lot. The anger of the broken-star superhumans had long since turned into magma, but they did not know how to release it.
It was the same this time.
Two members of the Broken Star Club worked together to open a small construction material company.
They were just in time for the development of the northern frontlines, so they went to bid for a medium-sized construction project.
Everything had been settled, but who knew that a competitor would appear out of nowhere.
The boss of that company was an elite at the peak of Earth Realm.
Both parties talked for a while, but they could not see eye to eye. The boss glared at them and slammed his palm on the table. "Then let's use the superhumans' method to solve this problem. Come, let's bring out our people and spar!"
The reason was good.
The development of the northern frontlines might run into the monsters' counterattack at any moment. Without great fighting strength, how could they ensure that the construction materials could be sent up and that the project could be carried out smoothly?
Hence, the level of fighting strength was an important factor in determining who the project belonged to.
In the past, when they ran into this sort of thing, the broken-star superhumans could only pinch their noses and bear with it.
What else could they do if they could not bear with it? There was a huge difference in cultivation realms between broken-star superhumans and those at the peak of Earth Realm!
This time, two broken-star superhumans could not bear with it anymore. When they went to the Broken Star Club to train, they casually grumbled a little, and it instantly stirred up a lot of broken-star superhumans who were bound by a common hatred.
In the end, it was time for them to spar.
It was a working day.
There were still more than five hundred broken-star superhumans who rushed to the scene to watch.
