Saturday could be said to be the first day of business. Not long after, more than a dozen companies left after purchasing items. There were also many warriors in the store's hall, and at this time, there was also a line.
Because a few companies came in first, they also chose their items first, paid, and left.
The number of items they bought was also very large. At least Wangzai started with one or two thousand items. After the previous storage space was equipped, there was no shortage of items on the shelves.
Mo Tiankong was very satisfied with this. After all, it was not only the companies that bought so many items. Some families, including the imperial family, also bought a lot of items each time. If these people came on the same day, Mo Tiankong might have to restock many times.
After all, there were now many warriors in the store, and they could not leave. Fortunately, he had the foresight to trigger the side quest early on to equip the storage space. Otherwise, it would be a little troublesome.
However, it did not matter if it was not done. After the store was upgraded, it could now recruit employees. It was just that Mo Tiankong was not in a hurry to recruit.
Regarding the recruitment of employees, Mo Tiankong also thought of a few points. The first point was women. Although most stores in this world had male employees who had a certain level of cultivation, Mo Tiankong felt that it was better to have a female cashier. After all, whether it was the perception on Earth or simply because they were more pleasing to the eye, it was necessary to have a female cashier.
The grocery store did not have any requirements for the employees' cultivation. Even if the System would not protect the employees, if they caused trouble in the store, the System would not stand by and do nothing. Therefore, there was no difference.
Another point was that Mo Tiankong thought about it. Zhang Tiannan, Fatty Tang, and the others would not come to be employees. Therefore, he would do whatever he wanted. To be honest, Mo Tiankong really did not want to recruit a male employee.
Finally, it depended on the situation. He hoped that the other party had cooking skills. In that case, he would not have to cook three meals a day. However, it did not matter if he did not know how to cook. Mo Tiankong was still barely qualified for this position.
However, this week was about to end. Tomorrow was the rest day. The recruitment of employees would be next week.
Although the new authority had been released, it would only be implemented next month. Next week would be the beginning of a new month, so this Sunday was still a day off.
Everything was piled up until next week. It was the same for the props for the lottery. Mo Tiankong's plan was to be implemented next Monday. The time for the lottery was also set for Sunday.
Because of the monthly payment and his new authority, he only needed to be open for 24 days a month. Mo Tiankong decided that if he had nothing else to do, he would continue to open for business. Therefore, Sundays were also open for business. If he set it on Sundays, he could open for business four times a month. This could be considered as several more opportunities to earn spirit stones.
As for Sunday's arrangements, Mo Tiankong had already made plans. He had long wanted to go on a one-day tour of the Aquamarine Empire. After all, the furthest he had transmigrated was the Antelope Mountain Range and Yuanfang City.
Now that he had time, he could still go and take a look. Although time was a little tight, now that the teleportation array was almost set up, the return trip was much faster. He could set off now.
Moreover, he had some ability to protect himself now. With the enhancement of cigarettes, he could reach the Venerable Realm. He was not a troublemaker. As long as no one took the initiative to provoke him, Mo Tiankong just wanted to stroll around in peace.
In the evening.
Mo Tiankong was busy at the cashier's counter. Auspicious was sleeping in the courtyard. Because there were more warriors who had put up new items in the past few days, Auspicious rarely came to the hall.
Mo Tiankong was so busy that he did not have time to care about it. The new items were only put up for sale on Tuesday night, close to the end of business. It had only been three days until today, so there were still many warriors who came.
At around eight o 'clock, there were no more warriors in the store. However, Zhang Tiannan came over at this time.
"Store Manager Mo."
After greeting Mo Tiankong, Zhang Tiannan went straight to the shelves. He came with a goal in mind.
When he returned to the cashier's counter, he was holding an item in his hand. It was the Five Elements Marble.
"Store Manager Mo, one million spirit stones." Zhang Tiannan said. Then, he took out a spatial ring and placed it on the cashier's counter.
"That's right." Mo Tiankong waved his hand and the spatial ring disappeared.
Zhang Tiannan did not say much and left. Mo Tiankong was a bit stunned. Who in the Zhang Family was going to break through again?
Zhang Yun should have been among the people who broke through that night. He used a Five Elements Marble. Before that, the Zhang Family had only bought one.
Moreover, if the family head did not break through, should he give it to someone else? This did not make sense. It was impossible for the cultivation of the other higher ups to suppress Zhang Yun. Then what was the point of being the family head?
Mo Tiankong had also seen Zhang Yun's cultivation. He was a rank nine Martial King. He was the most suitable person to use the Five Elements Marble.
However, who was the second marble for? Zhang Yi was still a bit lacking. He was only a rank eight Martial King. He would not be able to use it.
There were only two direct descendants of the Zhang Family. Whether it was for public or private reasons, the Zhang Family would definitely be given priority. Furthermore, the Zhang Family was the one in power.
Even though the Zhang Family had earned a lot of spirit stones in this period of time, one million spirit stones for a Five Elements Marble was not something that could be casually purchased.
The profit of the Teleportation Formations was mainly reflected in the long term. After all, the profit from each teleportation was only a hundred and fifty spirit stones. If a portion of the profit was taken out, it would be a hundred spirit stones per teleportation. Furthermore, because the teleportation formations were only set up in ordinary cities and not in sentry towns, even if they teleported a hundred times a day, they would only earn ten thousand spirit stones.
One million spirit stones would take about three months to earn, which was not a short period of time. However, considering that the two families had six transmission arrays, each family would have three transmission arrays, which would reduce the profit by a third. It would take about a month to earn that much.
This way, the two families' annual income would be around ten million spirit stones. Mo Tiankong was a bit envious. If he had known, he would have built a few Teleportation Formations. Now, spirit stones were not a problem. He could even earn money while lying down.
Now, even if he wanted to build one, he did not have the opportunity. There were already many Teleportation Formations in sentry town. If he built a few more, the profit would not be that high. After thinking about it, he gave up.
If he really wanted to build a few Teleportation Formations, it would be easy. However, if there was no one to guard them, who would take the spirit stones? Mo Tiankong did not feel at ease letting others take the spirit stones. Who knew if they would be greedy?
Mo Tiankong suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that Zhang Tiannan came to buy it in the middle of the night for Old Master Zhang? Although he did not know what Old Master Zhang's cultivation level was, it might really be possible.
After all, judging from the development history of the big families in sentry town, Old Master Zhang had been stuck in the Martial Emperor Realm for so many years. It was possible that he had accumulated enough, but was just stuck at this bottleneck.
Mo Tiankong knew many of the Zhang family's Martial King Realm warriors. During the sea beast riot, there were two Martial King Realm warriors, the two brothers Zhang Yun and Zhang Yi, and Zhang Zhong, who had led the team to purchase the Teleportation Formation. Zhang Yun was the only one who had truly reached the peak of Level Nine. He did not know if there were others in secret.
After thinking for a while, Mo Tiankong did not care. No matter who used it, it did not have much to do with him. However, if they came to buy the Five Element Marbles, it would increase his turnover.
The System's notification sounded. Today's business hours were over. After Zhang Tiannan left, no other warriors came. Mo Tiankong got up and closed the door of the shop. Then, he walked to the backyard.
Tomorrow was a one-day tour of the Empire. Before that, he still had to make some preparations and see if he needed to bring anything.
Mo Tiankong's thinking was habitual. It was impossible not to bring anything when traveling on Earth.
However, on second thought, he did not need to stay outside for a day. He did not need to bring clothes or toiletries. In that case, he did not need to bring anything.
Naturally, he did not need to cook when he went out. He could just eat at the local restaurant wherever he went.
As for Spirit Stones, the System could automatically convert them. If he needed them, he could just withdraw them.
The Grand Xia Dragonfinch cigarettes and so on were all in the space backpack. After thinking about it, it seemed that there was nothing else he needed.
After all, it was only for a day. Mo Tiankong was excited. In the end, he realized that he did not need to bring anything except Auspicious.
It would not be appropriate to leave Auspicious in the shop when he went out. After all, there was no need to guard the door in a grocery store.
With that thought, Mo Tiankong did not want to go out. It was only for a day. Although he could go back and forth in a day because of the teleportation formation, there was no sense of ceremony.
When he was in school, many of his classmates were planning graduation trips. They would pack big and small suitcases and then go out. He was empty-handed …
He really considered waiting until next month to go out. He still had a lot of time. If he stayed outside for a few days, it would be more like a trip.
For a moment, Mo Tiankong was a little conflicted. Should he go out tomorrow? If he did not go out, it would be a little boring at home.
He did not even need to bring clothes. If he went to the Antelope Mountain Range to fight, he might need to bring a few more sets of clothes. In the city, it was even less necessary. Usually, no one would dare to fight in the city.
'Forget it. I'll stick to my original plan. There are too many things to do in the shop by the beginning of next month. Business is more important. If I want to go out again, I'll have to wait until the end of the month.'
After making up his mind, Mo Tiankong glanced at Auspicious. It was better to sit down for dinner tonight. After all, they would leave tomorrow morning and would eat out the whole day.
Turning around, Mo Tiankong went into the kitchen. He took out a pile of ingredients and started to get busy.
The efficiency of the God of Cooking Set was still very high. Not long after, Mo Tiankong came out with a few plates of dishes. He had just bought some ingredients and the portions were ample.
Of course, meat was still the main dish. Auspicious was not the only carnivore. Mo Tiankong was also a carnivore. Out of the three plates of dishes, two plates were meat, and there was also a plate of seaweed. Mo Tiankong was the only one who ate vegetables.
Therefore, every time he cooked, he only needed to cook enough for himself. He took out two big bowls and started eating.
After this supper, it was time for supper. It was 11 o 'clock. Mo Tiankong put away Auspicious and went upstairs. He had to sleep early and wake up early. He could not sleep in tomorrow.
