BXBX NOVEL Chapter 181 - Grand Opening!
Chapter 181: Grand Opening!
In the beginning, Lorne had other plans, but now that he had a shop, he naturally would not ignore this money making machine.
It just so happened that he had a plan to repair the Cold Desolate Dragon City. Therefore, he needed a large amount of funds recently in order to rebuild the Cold Desolate Dragon City in the near future.
Lorne first took out the antidotes he had obtained from the Alchemist Association.
Then, he looked at the manager, Rona, and asked, “How do you want to price these potions?”
“Yes.” Rona counted the number of supplies and said, “According to the price of the antidote in Iron Skull City, it should be set at 1 silver coin. However, our shop has just opened. The price will be 50 bronze coins and we will sell 2,000 bottles. At noon, we will price it at 70 bronze coins and sell 3,000 bottles. At night, we will price it at 90 bronze coins and sell 5,000 bottles.”
“This way, the shop can obtain enough popularity immediately.”
“Master, is this arrangement okay?”
As expected of an Epic NPC, her management plan was very reasonable.
“Let’s do as you think.”
Lorne nodded, but quickly fell into thought.
If he wanted to attract the players from the NPC shops, only the antidote would work.
The antidote that Lorne had obtained was only 10,000 bottles, and this was only after he had taken the initiative to ask Doge to help raise the quantity. Otherwise, there were only 5,000 bottles per day.
But even with 10,000 antidotes, it could not become a mainstream commodity in the shop.
He had to add more items.
Lorne took out a pile of Bronze and Silver equipment from his bag.
“You can arrange to sell these equipment as well.”
“In addition, there are a few Gold items here. You can use the auction to attract people.”
The antidote was only the appetizer. Equipment was the main commodity for the business in this shop, especially Silver-grade and Gold-grade equipment. These high-grade equipment would definitely cause a commotion among the players.
“Yes, Master.”
Rona had a strong operational ability. She could sell the goods on her own.
Of course, all her operations had to be reported to Lorne in advance. The plan could only be carried out after obtaining his approval.
After arranging all of this, Lorne had to take the most important step.
That was publicity!
Publicity was a very necessary part. It was not enough to recruit the first batch of customers.
However, this was a game. There was no need to advertise everywhere. With Lorne’s own fame, he only needed to shout in the chat channel to achieve all his expectations.
Soon, shouts sounded in Iron Skull City.
Ding!
“Regional Announcement (Sent by Player Tyrant): The first player shop in Iron Skull City, Dragon One, is offering a huge reward for its opening ceremony. The antidotes will cost 50 bronze coins each, and there are also a large number of Silver-grade and Gold-grade items for sale. Those who are interested, hurry up. The quantity is limited, buy it immediately!”
“Ding!”
“Ding!”
The regional announcement of Iron Skull City was very expensive. Lorne shouted three times before giving up.
However, these three sentences made all the players in Iron Skull City boil.
“Gosh! There are player shops already?!”
“Am I playing a fake game?”
“50 bronze coins for an antidote? Is this true?”
“How can what Tyrant said be false? Brothers, let’s hurry up. If we’re late, we won’t be able to buy anything!”
“Crazy, this is really crazy. He’s even selling Gold-grade equipment!”
All the players in Iron Skull City were in an uproar.
In a few minutes, the entrance of the shop ‘Dragon One’ was filled with countless players.
They had all come because of the slogan of 50 bronze coins per antidote, but after coming here, they realized that it was only selling 2000 bottles.
If they wanted to buy more, they had to wait until noon and night.
“Indeed, capitalists are all shrewd.”
“After today, the price of the antidote will probably rise to a few silver coins. I know Tyrant too well.”
“It has been proven that monopolies really harm people. We strongly request that the officials of Iron Skull City punish the immoral business practices of Tyrant!”
“Fortunately, us solo players are not interested in the ruins of the war. Otherwise, we’ll lose our minds from being exploited like this.”
The surrounding players cursed, especially the players who had been exploited once in the ruins of the war. At this moment, they were even tearing up in grief.
In the end, they were still wrung dry in the hands of Tyrant. They were not given a chance to profit. It was too detestable!
They were all indignant and protested, but in the next second, these people rushed into the shop.
This was because the Shop Manager Rona had already begun the Silver-grade auction.
Silver-grade equipment was considered top-notch at this moment and was the standard equipment for elite players. Of course, they were not willing to miss it.
…
“Damn, this Tyrant is way ahead in the game. He can earn money like this!”
Speck had always thought that he should be the one doing this, but now, all of it was achieved by his enemies. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
However, despite his anger, he still had to buy the equipment.
The Silver-grade equipment was an important resource for the guild to compete for the progress of the game. They had to snatch it!
“Inform our people to auction it now. No matter how much it costs, these high-level equipment are ours!”
Speck immediately issued the order.
To large guilds, the early stages were the time to compete for the game’s progress. Whoever had the greatest advantage would have the greatest gap in the future, which would expand infinitely until they suppressed all their opponents!
Therefore, even if he had a grudge against Tyrant, he had to buy these equipment!
Soon, the lackeys who squeezed into the shop received the order from above to obtain high-grade equipment.
With Boss’s order, they naturally responded without hesitation.
However, just as they piled up the price to the highest and no one wanted to snatch it anymore, suddenly, a rule appeared on the display screen in the shop.
————
[Attention!]
[For all products in this shop, members of the World Destruction Guild and the Domination Guild will have to pay triple the price!]
————
Pfft—
The underling of the World Destruction Guild, who was about to obtain the Silver equipment, spat out blood. This was too obvious. Even if Tyrant wanted to take revenge, he had to hide it in front of everyone, right?
How could he announce his revenge like this!!!
The players from the World Destruction Guild cried in their hearts, and the other players at the scene laughed until their tears fell.
“I’m dying of laughter. Tyrant really humiliated the other party.”
“Hahaha, it’s their fault for making such a high offer, the World Destruction Guild is going to suffer now!”
“The people from World Destruction are too disgusting. We should teach them a lesson.”
“This World Destruction Guild that has hundreds of thousands of members is nothing in the eyes of Tyrant. Boss Tyrant is so awesome!!!”
“Serves them right! How dare they bully us everyday!”
The surrounding players mocked.
The people from the World Destruction Guild had always been domineering. In the eyes of most players, this was the most detestable evil gang. Now that they saw the other party ‘in trouble’, they naturally did not mind adding insult to injury.
