After Yan Xiu left, Mo Tiankong continued to get busy.
"Ding! Wangzai milk sales have reached 10,000 units. You are rewarded with a 50% discount for one day. The host can decide the opening time."
Mo Tiankong was unperturbed. After the Wangzai steamed buns and Wangzai QQ candies were sold at half price, the sales of Wangzai milk had also reached 100%.
Mo Tiankong opened the mission panel and found the updated log on the right. He saw this message.
Let's put it aside for now. Although the teleportation route was now open, there were not many martial artists coming over. It would be a waste to use it now.
Although the System said that it would decide the opening time, since it set up this benefit, it definitely hoped that more martial artists would be able to enjoy it.
Furthermore, if this benefit was used well, it could increase the sales volume.
Mo Tiankong felt that it was necessary to advertise in advance. He quickly took out the advertisement board from the cabinet below the cashier counter.
"This Thursday, Wangzai milk will be sold at half price. Limited to one day. After that, it will return to the original price."
Hmm, three days later. It was simple and clear. He wrote it like that.
He walked out of the cashier counter and placed the advertisement board outside the shop. He then turned around and returned to the shop.
The half price event was a benefit and also a way to make a small profit. Previously, the two pieces of Wangzai milk were sold out.
Strictly speaking, as long as the cost was reasonable, the profit would be more than the original price. This was because the quantity was large.
With the System being such a profiteer, Mo Tiankong felt that he would not lose money even if he sold the System at a 50% discount.
"There's a half price event again. This time it's Wangzai milk."
"It's a pity that Martial Master level is useless."
"I can buy a bottle for my nephew. He's a Martial Warrior."
"Yeah, my son is a Martial Warrior too. I can buy a bottle for him. It's cheaper than half price."
"Let's not talk about it. I'll buy it in three days."
The onlookers chatted with each other.
Strictly speaking, the Wangzai milk was much more important than the other two Wangzai milk products. It was something that could build one's foundation. However, many martial artists had already passed the Martial Warrior level and could no longer use it. However, it could still be nurtured for future martial artists.
Mo Tiankong pondered for a moment. With three days to prepare, there should be quite a number of martial artists buying it on Thursday.
However, he wasn't too worried now. After the Transmission Road was set up, there would only be more and more cultivators coming to buy it.
Mo Tiankong suddenly thought of a problem. The construction of the Teleportation Portal had exceeded his expectations. The Zhang and Tang family probably couldn't resell their goods to the grocery store at a high price.
With the news circulating, no one would want it even if it was sold at a high price. How many spirit stones was the teleportation fee? If it was several times the price, they would definitely choose to buy it themselves.
Moreover, it was Monday today, and the purchasing teams from the two companies had not arrived yet. It was originally a situation where the information was not equal, so they could do it.
If Mo Tiankong had received the news in the shop, the two caravans outside must have received the news as well.
.....
In fact, it was just as Mo Tiankong had guessed. The two caravans had returned last Saturday. Naturally, they had received the news and discussed it.
"I didn't expect the royal family to react so quickly. It's impossible to sell it at a high price. It won't be long before the Teleportation Portals cover the entire Aquamarine Empire," Zhang Zhengfeng said.
Zhang Zhengfeng was Zhang Yun's father, the only Martial Emperor in the Zhang family. He had set off with the caravan last time.
"Yes, the Teleportation Portal to Sentry Town was set up in just a week," Zhang Yun said.
It was normal for the royal family to receive the news, but he didn't expect them to act so quickly.
"Uncle Zhang, before you set off, there was a half-price promotion in the store. Our two families bought a lot of goods," Tang Shen said.
"Oh, so you mean …" Zhang Zhengfeng glanced at Tang Shen and said.
"Uncle Zhang, we don't have the chance to sell it at a high price, but we can take advantage of the half-price promotion in the grocery store to buy more goods. It's slightly cheaper than in the store. I believe many people will buy it," Tang Shen said with a smile after a pause.
Zhang Zhengfeng and Zhang Yun also understood, but there was a problem. After the Teleportation Portal was set up, martial artists could reach Sentry Town in a short time. Other people could also buy it.
"But it won't be long before the Teleportation Portals cover the entire empire. As long as there's news of the half-price promotion in the grocery store, many people will still come to buy it. Who will we sell it to?" Zhang Yun asked the question.
"Even if the news spreads, it's impossible for all the martial artists in the empire to come. Moreover, many of the goods in the store are consumables. As for who we sell it to, we can sell it to Sentry Town and other cities," Tang Shen said meaningfully.
The meaning was obvious. Even if the Teleportation Portals were set up in all the cities in the empire, not many martial artists would come. Sentry Town couldn't accommodate so many martial artists.
As long as one of the martial artists they knew came over, they could buy it for them. There was no need to spend so much on the Teleportation Portal. The grocery store didn't have a limit on what they could buy.
On the other hand, some martial artists were in seclusion or on missions. If they were delayed by something, they wouldn't come over. Only a small portion of them could come.
Moreover, many of the items in the store were consumables, such as Thousand Island Lake Beer, Wangzai, and so on. The Tang Sword would also wear out. They were all consumables.
Moreover, if they bought it at half-price, which was slightly lower than the original price in the grocery store, the market in the entire empire was very big. There was no need to worry about selling it.
After selling it at a high price, this was a good choice.
"But the only difficulty is that we can't predict when the half-price promotion in the grocery store will happen," Tang Shen said in the end.
"That's not a problem. We'll definitely be the first to get the news. Besides, aren't those two guys familiar with Store Manager Mo? If they have nothing to do, let them go to the grocery store to ask." This problem wasn't a big problem for Zhang Yun.
The grocery store was in Sentry Town. If there was news, they would naturally be the first to know. Moreover, Zhang Tiannan, Fatty Tang, and Mo Tiankong had a good relationship. It wouldn't be a problem for them to ask from time to time. They probably wouldn't hide this kind of news.
After all, the grocery store was open for business. Naturally, they wanted more people to buy from them. If there was news, they wouldn't hide it.
"Moreover, our focus isn't on this. It's on the Teleportation Portals we set up before," Zhang Yun continued.
"As the Teleportation Portals become more popular, the usage rate will increase after a period of time. This is much more profitable than buying and selling items at half-price."
Buying and selling items at half-price could indeed make a lot of money. However, for the two families who had tasted the sweetness of quickly earning spirit stones before, the speed of earning spirit stones was still too slow.
However, the Teleportation Portals were different. If they were just left there, someone could use them to earn spirit stones. Although the cost of one teleportation wasn't much, it was undoubtedly a huge sum of money after a day, a week, or even a year.
The most important thing was that it saved them a lot of trouble. As long as they sent people to guard the portals, they would be able to continuously earn spirit stones.
Fortunately, the imperial family didn't interfere with the Teleportation Portals of the various cities. Thus, the caravans had set up six Teleportation Portals in the past few trips. Even if some of the profits were given to the city lords, the two families still had a lot of spirit stones.
Originally, there were more than a dozen Teleportation Portals. However, some cities directly bought the two families' Teleportation Portals and monopolized them. Even the Sovereigns couldn't do anything about it.
Another reason was that the two families didn't have that many experts to guard the portals. Every Teleportation Portal required a Martial King expert to guard it. The two families had sent out three Martial Kings each, so they simply sold the rest.
Only six Teleportation Portals were left. After all, they could provide the two families with a steady supply of spirit stones other than the spirit stone mines. In addition to the distribution of benefits, a Martial King expert was the best. It was safe.
"Buying and selling half-price items is just icing on the cake. You guys can discuss these matters. I'm going into seclusion," Zhang Zhengfeng said and left.
If the caravans normally sold some half-price items, there was no need for him to show up. Therefore, the remaining problems were left to the two of them. He was no longer the head of the family, so he let the two of them worry about these things.
After earning so many spirit stones, the Zhang family naturally bought a batch of cultivation resources for the old man to cultivate. Only when one was strong could one obtain more resources and have the right to speak.
As long as the old man could break through to the Martial Sovereign level, the Zhang family would immediately become the number one family in Sentry Town. No matter how many Martial Emperors the Yeh family had, it would be useless.
"Uncle Zhang, are you preparing to break through to the Martial Sovereign level?" Tang Shen asked after Zhang Zhengfeng left.
"Not yet," Zhang Yun said, shaking his head.
Although he had earned a lot of spirit stones and bought a lot of cultivation resources during this period of time, Zhang Zhengfeng was still far from the Martial Sovereign level. He had not even accumulated enough spirit energy.
"My old man is also in seclusion, but there's no chance," Tang Shen said bluntly. His old man's cultivation was lower than Zhang Zhengfeng's, so there was no chance for him to break through now.
"…" How could you say that about your old man in front of me? Although I know in my heart, saying it out loud …
However, the two families were very close. It was fine to say it in front of Zhang Yun, but of course, he would not say it outside.
"Also, Tang Shen, don't invite Zhang Tiannan to discuss things in a place like Hua Manlou in the future. Can't you do it in the Zhang family or the Tang family?" Zhang Yun suddenly remembered that Zhang Tiannan had cheated him of spirit stones. This time, he just happened to be here and reminded him.
"Aren't we in your Zhang family?" Tang Shen was unhappy. How could he talk in your Zhang family and frame me?
"I'm talking about the last time, the time when Zhang Tiannan saw us." How could I not know that we were in the Zhang family now? Zhang Yun facepalmed.
"Okay, okay," Tang Shen could not even remember when it had happened, so he said perfunctorily.
“....”
After discussing business, the two family heads chatted casually.
In the evening, Mo Tiankong finally had some free time. Other than the group of martial artists in the morning, many martial artists from other cities came one after another, and they bought a lot of things.
Looking at the billboard outside the door, martial artists still gathered from time to time to take a look. The effect was still there.
Now, many martial artists from other cities came to Sentry Town, so the news naturally spread. As for giving out flyers, it was a bit indecent. Mo Tiankong thought about it, but he did not do it.
Moreover, there was no need for it now. Every day, martial artists from various cities and towns in the empire came in an endless stream.
