Mo Tiankong naturally didn't know that the Zhang family was having a meeting because of the store. However, if he knew, he would probably be secretly happy. After all, it was a business. It was naturally better to have business.
Although the number of Tang Sword sales and Spirit Stones were not included in the store's experience and turnover, the reward was very tempting. A random lottery was much better than those. After all, as long as he kept operating the store, he would be able to improve his martial arts cultivation sooner or later. There was no need to rush.
However, whether he could complete the mission or not would depend on the situation in the next three days. The current sales were still very poor. He just asked the System and it said that only 51000 Tang Swords had been completed. The data was very bad. Although some people wanted to buy because of the billboard, there were only five transactions. Some martial artists couldn't afford it.
From what he saw in the Wild Lion Mercenary Group, even a Martial Master would find it difficult to gather five hundred spirit stones. Maybe they would be able to earn this much in a year, but most of it would be used to cultivate, buy weapons, and so on. When doing missions or hunting demon beasts, weapons would be used up. If one's luck was bad, their weapons would be damaged at a very high rate. Being able to keep one's life was already good enough.
Also, if they were injured in battle, they would need to spend money to buy healing medicine. It was fine if they were slightly injured, but if they were seriously injured, most martial artists could not save money.
Other than that, there were also families or big sects. Families and sects could help a little, and the expenses would be lower.
Many martial artists could not even join mercenary groups, and it was even more difficult for independent martial artists. Coincidentally, there were many such martial artists. Therefore, it was relatively difficult to sell. Even if a peak Mystique Tang Sword was given to a martial artist, it would only be a slightly sharper weapon. It would not be able to display its full power.
Mo Tiankong was still a little worried. The day was almost over. With the current sales volume, it was definitely impossible to complete the side mission in three days. Zhang Tiannan had just run home, and there was no news from him. It had been so long, and he still hadn't come back. This group of little radishes had already finished buying and gone back.
Thinking about it, there was nothing he could do. There was no television on Earth, so there were no advertisements. Otherwise, the publicity would definitely be very strong. But this was the Other World, so there was no internet.
Although people kept coming in, Mo Tiankong sensed a few times and realized that most of them were martial artists and masters who had been attracted by the advertisements.
These people were probably just here to watch the show. Even if they really wanted to buy, they wouldn't be able to afford it.
It's a pity that today isn't Monday. Otherwise, there would be a few rich people here who would help me complete some of the tasks.
After the martial artist at the counter paid, Mo Tiankong looked up and saw that the sky had already darkened. It was already evening.
Although the sales of the Tang Sword were not high, it still drove the sales of other items in the shop. The Wangzai three-piece set was the best-selling item.
Some martial artists and masters couldn't afford the Tang Sword, but Wangzai could. Although the price was relatively expensive, it was still affordable. Moreover, it wasn't like when it had just opened. Everyone didn't believe it. Seeing so many people buying it in the shop, they didn't suspect it was fake. From the introduction, the effect was very good. Naturally, there were many people buying it.
Mo Tiankong was busy all afternoon. The number of transactions was more than last week, but the turnover was not high. The reason was that most of the transactions were for the Wangzai three-piece set, so the turnover was low.
However, Mo Tiankong didn't mind. Even a mosquito's leg was meat. Besides, it had to be accumulated slowly. There were people who wanted to make a deal that went straight to heaven. Even if there were, no one could afford it. It was estimated that in Sentry Town, other than Qian Yuzhu from the Bountiful Treasures Pavilion, it would be difficult.
Besides, there were many treasures in the Bountiful Treasures Pavilion. If they wanted something, it had to be something that didn't exist on the mainland. Otherwise, they wouldn't be interested.
Looking at the sky, it was dark. Although there were lights on both sides of the street, it was still a bit dark. Other people might not notice. After thinking about it, Mo Tiankong walked out of the shop and brought it back. He placed it at the entrance of the shop. Anyway, the light in the shop was very good. Putting it at the entrance was convenient for customers who came in at night to see it.
The practice of martial arts was very time-consuming. The practice of martial arts also took many years. Therefore, there were usually fewer customers at night. This was the experience of opening the shop for so long. Unless there was something to do, or if they had just returned from a trip, they generally didn't walk outside.
Those who really wanted to relax basically went to places like Hua Man Lou. However, there were fewer commoners in Sentry Town. Most of them were warriors, and there was a large population. Sentry Town wasn't big, so it seemed more lively.
Looking at the streets, there were still many warriors coming and going. Mo Tiankong also returned to the cashier's counter and waited. There were no customers in the shop at the moment.
He thought to himself that even if Zhang Tiannan went back and told him, it would be useless. It was already night time, and he still hadn't come. He probably wouldn't come. After all, in Mo Tiankong's memory, Zhang Tiannan didn't seem to have come at night.
However, regarding the question of whether the Zhang family would buy it or not, Mo Tiankong still believed that they would buy it. The head of the family, Zhang Yun, was quite bold and had good foresight. Otherwise, he wouldn't only use the snacks in the shop to cultivate the younger generation of warriors. This would greatly increase the burden of the Zhang family.
The cost of cultivating the younger generation of the large Zhang family was actually only a small part. The majority of the cost was in the upper echelons of the family. Being willing to spend money on this group of younger warriors was worthy of Mo Tiankong's evaluation of him.
Just as Mo Tiankong was thinking about this, a group of people walked in through the entrance of the shop. When he turned his head and saw Mo Tiankong, he smiled. The people from the Zhang family had come.
However, it wasn't Zhang Tiannan. Instead, it was Zhang Yun who had come in person. Behind him was a group of the Zhang family's upper echelons. Mo Tiankong used his Appraisal skill to check them one by one.
"Zhang family head, did you come in person this late for the shop's event?" Mo Tiankong immediately became alert. The list had arrived, and he immediately asked.
As soon as they walked into the shop, they were attracted by the billboard. They all first looked at the words on the billboard. When he heard Mo Tiankong's question, Zhang Yun walked over.
"Store Manager Mo. Tiannan said that the shop had an event, so I came to take a look," Zhang Yun replied.
"Zhang family head, you've seen the shop's event, right? The sea beast riot should happen within a week. The grocery store is also a part of Sentry Town, so it launched this event to give some benefits to the warriors of Sentry Town. It can be considered as contributing to Sentry Town."
Zhang Yun and the other four families definitely knew the specific time of the sea beast riot, so Mo Tiankong casually mentioned it. Mo Tiankong guessed that the System had issued such a Side Quest at this time to increase the sales of the Tang Sword. After all, the worst selling Tang Sword in the shop was the Tang Sword. On the other hand, it might have the intention of giving some benefits to the warriors of Sentry Town.
After all, since the shop was opened here, it could be considered a part of Sentry Town. Now that this event was launched, it could be considered as contributing to the sea beast riot. However, these were all Mo Tiankong's guesses. There was no need to ask the System about this kind of question. It would be pointless to ask.
Zhang Yun was also stunned. He did not expect Mo Tiankong to know the specific time of the sea beast riot. However, when he thought about the mysterious background of the shop, he felt relieved. He then said in a flattering tone, "Store Manager Mo is so righteous. The warriors who open a grocery store in Sentry Town are blessed."
Mo Tiankong went straight to the point and asked, "I've seen the event rules. Zhang family head, how many Tang Sword do you need?"
However, Zhang Yun did not answer. Instead, it was an old man beside him who spoke.
"Store Manager Mo, I wonder if it can be cheaper if we buy in bulk?"
As soon as the old man spoke, Mo Tiankong saw that Zhang Yun did not speak and naturally understood what he meant. Zhang Yun still wanted to lower the price. No wonder he brought people here. It was probably not good for him to open his mouth. The head of the Zhang family wanted to bargain. He did not want to lose face.
However, bargaining did not exist. Not to mention that the price was set by the System, Mo Tiankong could not do anything about it. Even if he could bargain, Mo Tiankong would not lower the price. There was no other reason. The price was really like what the System said. It was not like the shop could not sell the items. There was no need to bargain.
Moreover, as a transmigrator, he still needed to maintain his dignity. If he bargained just because someone asked him to, he would not lose face. Moreover, the price was set by the System now. Mo Tiankong could not change it.
"This shop does not bargain," Mo Tiankong said faintly as he pointed at the small blackboard on the wall at the entrance of the shop.
When the old man and the rest heard this, they all looked at the shop rules on the small blackboard.
"Store Manager Mo, I'm sorry. We didn't know the shop rules before," Zhang Yun said. He was very humble because he did not want to offend the grocery store.
"It's nothing. Head of the Zhang family, how many do you want to buy?" Mo Tiankong was now only concerned about the sale of the Tang Sword. He did not care about these things. After all, he had sold five Tang Sword today.
As for how many Tang Swords Zhang Yun wanted to buy, it should have been discussed in the Zhang family. Otherwise, these people would not have followed him. On one hand, they wanted to lower the price. On the other hand, they were afraid that the number of Tang Swords Zhang Yun wanted to buy was not small. They were worried that Zhang Yun would buy alone, so they followed him to take a look.
Although the head of the Zhang family was Zhang Yun and most of the higher-ups supported him, Zhang Yi, who had failed to compete for the position of the head of the Zhang family, also had many people supporting him. Now, the higher-ups of the Zhang family still supported Zhang Yi. This old man was one of them. Naturally, he would keep an eye on Zhang Yun. As long as he made a mistake, he would have a chance to criticize him.
"Store Manager Mo, the Zhang family wants to buy two hundred Tang Swords. Is that okay?" Zhang Yun paused for a moment and then said.
Mo Tiankong was suddenly happy. This Zhang family was quite generous. Two hundred Tang Swords at once, which was one-fifth of the mission's quantity. Even if they were sold at half price, it would still be as high as 100,000 Spirit Stones. They were really rich.
"Of course, starting from today, there will be no limit to the purchase for three days. Two hundred Tang Swords is naturally okay," Mo Tiankong said. In any case, they had completed one-fifth of the mission's quantity. He said with some joy.
After hearing Mo Tiankong's confirmation, Zhang Yun began to take out a few storage bags from his space ring and put them on the cashier's counter.
Seeing this, Mo Tiankong waved his hand and the storage bags disappeared. He waited for the System to check.
"That's right," Mo Tiankong said after the System checked and confirmed that there was no mistake.
Looking at Zhang Yun and the others looking at him with a smile, he patted his head after a while. It seemed that he had forgotten to give the Tang Swords. However, during this period of time, the payment method was the supermarket's method of payment, unlike before the store was renovated. Mo Tiankong really forgot about this.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhang. You can go to the container and get the Tang Swords yourself." After saying that, he ignored the stiff faces of Zhang Yun and the others and looked at the status of the side mission.
When he clicked on the side mission, he found that the value above was already 2051000. Mo Tiankong was secretly happy. There were still two more days. If he worked harder, there would still be a chance to complete the side mission.
As for Zhang Yun and the others, when they heard Mo Tiankong's words, their faces stiffened. Generally, when a shop sold something, shouldn't they prepare the things for the customer? Only when it came to Mo Tiankong did they need to go and get the swords themselves.
They had no choice but to go to the shelves and do it themselves. As for taking more, they wouldn't do it. Putting aside their pride, if the powerful person behind the store noticed that they took more, it would be awkward.
"Store Manager Mo, then we'll take our leave." After taking the 200 Tang Swords, Zhang Yun and the others also walked over and said goodbye.
"Mr. Zhang, take care," Mo Tiankong replied without raising his head.
Their faces stiffened again. If they didn't know that there was a powerful person behind the store, they might have beaten Mo Tiankong up.
