Chapter 518 - 518: Business Plan
“Brother Smiling Buddha!”
“You say that every time 1 pass by, but I’ve profited every time. Am 1 helping your business, or are you helping me?” Wang Mang said helplessly.
Even Wang Mang felt that it was a little strange, and found the whole situation doubtful.
Hearing this, the Smiling Buddha’s mouth twitched, and the smile on his face was a little stiff.
He wished he could use his shoes to slap Wang Mang’s mouth!
Those words were the truth, but he wished that they were not!
Honestly, he found it hard to believe as well, which is why he kept calling out to Wang Mang. He wanted to see how long this fellow’s winning streak would last.
Thinking this, Smiling Buddha chuckled and said, “Come on! Junior, play a few more rounds?”
Hearing this, Wang Mang did not hesitate. He took out 1,000 immortal stones and said, “Same old arrangement! Pick a random stone for me!”
Smiling Buddha picked up a random stone and handed it to Wang Mang. “This one is actually 1,100 immortal stones.”
Wang Mang did not waste any time. After receiving the stone, he slapped it with his palm.
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out, and the stone did not shatter!
Then, Wang Mang struck again, and the stone finally cracked.
A fist-sized black and white iron block appeared in front of him.
Wang Mang had never seen this stone before, but he knew that it was a Tier 5 material.
Similarly, Wang Mang smiled and said, “Brother, take a look at it! I’ll sell it for the right price.”
“Yin-Yang Iron! I’ll give you 11,000 immortal stones for it,” Smiling Buddha’s expression stiffened as he said gloomily.
After saying that, Smiling Buddha took out 11,000 Immortal Stones and handed them over to Wang Mang.
After deducting the cost of the immortal source stone, Wang Mang had earned another 10,000 immortal stones!
How strange!
At this moment, Wang Mang, who was about to leave, suddenly asked, “Brother Smiling Buddha, do I need to register if I purchased a stall here?”
Smiling Buddha was slightly taken aback. He looked at Wang Mang in surprise and asked, “You can afford the stall here?”
“Do you know the price of the stalls here? The price of my stall is around 9 million immortal stones.”
“Moreover, there’s a price, but no market. Even if you give the owners immortal stones, they won’t sell!”
“This is because the stalls here have no time limit. The price will only keep rising and not falling!”
“I bought this stall early and spent 6 million immortal stones, but I won’t sell it even if someone offers me 10 million.”
Smiling Buddha looked very proud of himself.
After hearing Smiling Buddha’s introduction, Wang Mang gasped.
F*ck! This was worth way more than a million!
Thinking this, Wang Mang became excited. He hurriedly asked, “What about renting one?”
Smiling Buddha was speechless. If one could have a stall here, why would they rent it out? It made more sense to run their own business to earn more immortal stones.
“The rental price is not easy to calculate. For example, when my stall’s business is good, I could easily earn a few million immortal stones a year.”
“Even when business isn’t good, I earn about 100,000 immortal stones a month.”
“Do you think you would be willing to rent out a stall with such numbers?”
“Instead of renting, it’s better to just find a junior to help you take care of your business. You can just pay them a percentage commission, and most of them will be more than happy to work hard.”
Hearing the Smiling Buddha’s words, Wang Mang was enlightened. That was indeed a better method!
He quickly followed up, “Brother Smiling Buddha, if 1 really bought a stall, what should I pay attention to?”
“F*ck! Did you really buy a stall?” Smiley Buddha looked at Wang Mang in shock.
Wang Mang nodded slightly and pointed at the stall next to Smiling Buddha.
“This is the one 1 bought.”
After staring at Wang Wang Mang for a while, Smiling Buddha sighed and said, “Awesome! It looks like you have a very rich family!”
“Actually, there’s nothing much that you need to do. Just inform the academy’s administrators.”
“Show them proof of ownership, then you can just set up a stall.”
“I see.”
At this moment, the system’s voice rang out.
[Warm Reminder: The host can proceed with setting up the stall immediately. The host’s information has already been communicated to the academy’s administrators.]
Ooh! The system was awesome!
He began to think about what he should sell at the stall.
Wang Mang was more interested in selling pills, which would earn him the greatest profit. However, he could only refine Tier 1 pills now, which were not exactly hot on the market.
That was because he looked at the surrounding stalls, there were quite a few selling pills. In that sense, there was competition.
In the end though, Wang Mang still decided to sell pills. He hoped to find an alchemist to cooperate with him to supply pills, and then undersell the competition.
He was sure that there were definitely alchemists out there who wanted to earn money, but had no avenue to do so. Furthermore, if the cooperation was on a commission basis, he would not have to worry about being ripped off in terms of the price of the goods.
After all, if the stuff did not sell, both parties would lose out. As for manpower, he could just find some juniors to man the stall.
Thinking this, Wang Mang could not help but feel proud. Perhaps he was a business genius!
“Brother Smiling Buddha, I’ll go get busy first!”
“We’ll be neighbors in the future.”
With that, Wang Mang ran into the academy without turning back, and went straight to the alchemy area to find potential collaborators.
If he could make his business work, he would be able to earn big, and since immortal stones could be converted to energy points, his strength would skyrocket!
