Next, Bai Xiaowen went to the warehouse of the Super Gods to store the first batch of standard blue equipment (bound after equipping) transported from the Cain Dimension.
At present, there were only two types of standard blue equipment produced by the territory and stored in the territory warehouse for Bai Xiaowen to transport. One was a "refined longsword" as a weapon, and the other was a "refined iron armor" as a defensive equipment. Bai Xiaowen knew very well that for the Awakened, only weapons and equipment were worth investing in.
It needed to be explained that the daily production capacity of the level-3 blacksmith shop of 300 points referred to the upper limit of the equipment that Bai Xiaowen could transport. It did not affect the equipment of the White Stone Region's army. It was the same for the level-2 mill. The daily production capacity of 100 points referred to the upper limit of the food that Bai Xiaowen could transport. It did not affect the purchase of food by the people of the White Stone Region.
Bai Xiaowen's transport of goods could be regarded as the "surplus" of the White Stone Region's normal operation. However, this surplus was fixed to the number of building levels and would not suddenly increase or decrease.
Even if the White Stone Region's blacksmith shop worked overtime to produce equipment, the equipment supplied to Bai Xiaowen every day was still limited to the upper limit of 300 points of production. The production capacity could only be increased by upgrading the blacksmith shop.
In the pricing of the virtual hall, Bai Xiaowen directly marked the price of 5,000 psionic points per piece of blue equipment. This price seemed very high, but it was actually a reasonable price set by Bai Xiaowen after integrating the market price.
In the various shops in the virtual hall, there were not many blue equipment, and there were even fewer shops selling them in batches like Bai Xiaowen.
How many psionic points did it cost for Bai Xiaowen to transport a piece of blue equipment from the territory?
The answer was: less than 450 points.
The rules of the spiritual realm were conservative in the evaluation of equipment. A piece of blue equipment was valued at about 1,000 points, and the highest was not more than 1,500 psionic points. On the basis of this low evaluation, the transport fee was 10 to 30%, and the lowest transport fee was only a little more than 100 points.
There was no doubt that this was a huge profit. The daily production of up to six pieces of blue equipment would bring Bai Xiaowen tens of thousands of psionic points if all of them were sold!
Of course, after a period of time, the Blue Equipment market in Jinghai City and Jianghai District would be saturated, and the price would decrease accordingly, just like the market for Rough Equipment and White Equipment. However, Bai Xiaowen could at least enjoy a few months of huge profits.
Compared to the short-term profits of the blue equipment, the new food, rye snacks, was a typical example of a long-term profit. However, Bai Xiaowen needed to stockpile some rye pastries for himself and the guild's internal needs. It was still a long time before they could be sold in bulk.
Of course, this didn't stop Bai Xiaowen from selling a batch of rye desserts to increase his popularity. As for the price, it was only 998 yuan …
Countless Awakened habitually entered the shop that had a lot of customers. When they saw the rye pastries that cost 998 Spiritual Energy Points each, they could not help but complain. Compared to the rye bread that cost 100 Spiritual Energy Points each, the price was too high.
However, after they complained and expressed that they would not buy them, there were still Awakened who secretly placed orders. One could recover 15 HP in five seconds, while the other could recover 25 HP in five seconds. The difference was still very big. The restriction of eating only one recovery food per battle made it impossible for low-grade food to win over high-quality food. This also magnified the advantage of the rye pastries.
One of the effects of this "new" product was the change in Zhang Bo's attitude.
Zhang Bo went to Bai Xiaowen, hoping to change from a temporary part-time job to an official employee.
Previously, Zhang Bo had requested to work part-time. On the one hand, he had not seen the prospects of the shop that had a lot of customers. On the other hand, he still had hope for his career as an Awakened.
However, after working for a while, Zhang Bo discovered that for an Awakened with a standard profession, if they wanted to make a name for themselves in the Spirit World and strengthen their equipment, they would never be able to make ends meet.
The food consumed in every battle was also a considerable burden. Often, after venturing into the Spirit World twice, the points of spiritual energy they accumulated were only enough to strengthen their equipment once or twice. The failure rate was really too high.
In contrast, working part-time in the shop to earn spiritual energy points was really much easier than venturing into the Spirit World. Zhang Bo gradually discovered that he was not suitable for the path of an Awakened.
There was another important reason. The short period of time when Zhang Bo logged into the virtual shop in the afternoon to record orders was the moment when he felt the most proud and respected in the Awakened world.
Those elite Awakened and even Awakened with hero professions were all high and mighty figures to a small character like Zhang Bo who had a standard beginner profession. However, in the virtual shop, when they talked to Zhang Bo, they were always polite and even respectful. This made Zhang Bo feel very comfortable.
Seeing that the shop's products had received an upgrade and that its future prospects were limitless, Zhang Bo suddenly felt that it might be a better choice for him to continue working in this shop.
What would happen to the shop that had a lot of customers develop in the future? He did not dare to think about becoming an S-rank shop. However, according to this momentum, becoming an A-rank shop would not be a problem at all. It was even possible for it to be upgraded to A1. That was already a pivotal position in the industry.
Between the manager of an A-rank shop and an unknown beginner Awakened, who was more respected? Who had a better life? Who had a stronger network of connections?
Zhang Bo did not need to think too much to have the answer.
Zhang Bo was still a little nervous when he applied to become a regular worker this time. He knew that with the shop's current development momentum, there would be a lot of Awakened who were willing to come over if he wanted to recruit a regular worker. His advantage was his friendship with Bai Xiaowen and some contributions in the early stages of the shop's development.
However, at first, Bai Xiaowen wanted him to become a regular worker, but Zhang Bo refused. Now that he applied to become a regular employee, would it cause Bai Xiaowen's disgust?
Therefore, when asked about the treatment, Zhang Bo was very cautious. His request was only a little higher than a temporary contract and a little lower than a regular hunter employment contract.
Bai Xiaowen happily agreed to Zhang Bo's request and signed a long-term employment contract with Zhang Bo in the Awakened Association. In terms of treatment, it was higher than a standard hunter's long-term contract.
Zhang Bo was grateful. Bai Xiaowen patted his hand, "Do it well. Don't learn from the store manager called Fully Armed across the street. I will give you a bonus every time the shop's credit rating is upgraded. After the shop is upgraded to A-rank, we will change the contract."
A new contract, of course, meant higher salary treatment.
Zhang Bo's enthusiasm was stimulated by a thousand percent. Except for eating and sleeping, he spent all his time in the shop, carefully reviewing the foreign goods in the display cases and enthusiastically introducing the exhibits to the customers. The sales of the shop that had a lot of customers were also steadily increasing.
