Red Gold City is famous for the fact that there are many immortal red gold veins nearby. However, the output of red gold is limited and the price remains high. Therefore, many merchants come here to buy red gold and then sell it at high prices to places far away from here to make a lot of money.
Of course, the risk is 'colliding merchants'. According to Zhuangshan, people who are also selling red gold are in the same place. If there is more red gold, the supply exceeds the demand, the price may be lowered, and the same is true for other materials. Therefore, you can make money through red gold
They are all talented people with broad connections and keen insights.
The eastern district of Chijin City is a commercial district, bustling with traffic and crowded with people. There is a piece of hard flat land in the center, and nearly ten teleportation arrays have been built, corresponding to neighboring fairy cities tens of thousands of miles away in all directions.
The teleportation array lit up intermittently, the silver patterns twisted, and the beam of light shot up into the sky and penetrated into the void behind. After the light beam dispersed, seven people emerged, filling the space on the teleportation array. After the seven people came down, the light pillar emerged again, and another group of seven people teleported.
Come here, we are busy all day long and only stop at night.
Once, another group of seven people teleported over, and Xue Chen was among them. He covered his head with a black hat, only revealing a pair of bright eyes. He glanced around, and in an instant he could clearly see the scenes for several miles around, and then immediately locked on to the west.
wholesale market.
Entering the wholesale market, what you see immediately is the bright golden light. Red gold is placed everywhere, with different colors and purity.
Then, he conducted market research and collected various information data, mainly from Chijin.
In the end, he did not leave immediately, but stopped in front of a stall. The signboard erected had the word "red gold" engraved on it. Half of the other stalls were engaged in red gold trading.
"My dear fellow immortal, what percentage of pure gold do you want to buy?" The stall owner at the Peak of Immortal Soul, an old man, asked Xue Chen with a gentle smile.
Xue Chen's eyes were calm and he said in a low voice: "The ordinary 60% purity is enough!"
Xue Chen just conducted an investigation and found that the minimum purity of raw ore is 50%, but it is relatively small. The most common purity is 60%. After different refining, different purity corresponds to different prices.
But when he heard that the purity was only 60%, the stall owner's enthusiasm was greatly reduced. It was obvious that he would not make much money, so he casually said: "The uniform price for 60% purity is one hundred catties of immortal stone. How much does it cost, immortal friend?"
Don't just look at how much money you can make from a piece of fairy stone that weighs a hundred kilograms. In fact, red gold contains the secret of the law. A grain as big as your thumb weighs a hundred kilograms. If you want to refine a fairy sword, it needs to be purified with a purity of 60%. At least three hundred grains are needed.
, and three hundred fairy stones are equivalent to an ordinary fairy sword, so Xue Chen can't make any profit at all.
The stall owner can only earn some by selling a lot.
But the next moment, the stall owner's expression suddenly changed, because Xue Chen sent him a message: "The more, the better, give me all the inventory."
Seeing that the stall owner didn't move, Xue Chen said directly: "If the boss doesn't sell, I will find another seller. I believe there will be many people willing to cooperate with me."
As soon as he saw it, he was about to turn around and leave. The stall owner immediately stretched out his hand to stop him. He regained his smile and said more enthusiastically, "Fellow Immortal has misunderstood. How can I not sell it? I can provide you with any amount you want."
"Okay! Then let's make a deal." Xue Chen nodded.
…
Four days later, Xue Chen appeared in the Cold Mist Fairy City. He was sitting in the side hall of a Liebao Pavilion store, sitting on a soft chair made of cloud silk, smelling the fine musk, and having sex with two middle-aged men.
Ming talked and laughed.
"Fellow Daoist Xue, I heard that you have some red gold with a purity of 99%. This pavilion specializes in refining fire-type immortal weapons. We just need it. I am willing to buy it at 10% higher than the market price. Can you?" One of the rich immortals in gold robes said,
There is an immortal realm. Judging from his tone, he should be the master of Liebao Pavilion.
call out!
Xue Chen took a long sip of fragrant tea, and then said carefully: "I do have some red gold, but I want to sell it at 15% higher than the market price."
But he was decisively rejected by another red-haired old man: "No, ninety-nine percent of red gold is already very precious. One hundred kilograms is worth fifty immortal stones. If it increases by another 15%, even if it is refined into an immortal weapon, it will not be enough."
Make money, fellow Taoist, are you joking!"
"Haha! This fellow Taoist should be Master Liezhu, the chief weapon refiner of your pavilion. I heard that the master created a unique method of making immortal weapons, which can perfectly exert the effect of red gold and restrain the surroundings of Hanmist City to a certain extent.
The cold mist makes it easier to search for rare materials such as water mist flowers, so it is welcomed by many immortals. The price is very high, even if I raise it to 15%, you can still make a lot." Xue Chen responded lightly, but the two of them were shocked.
His face changed. He didn't expect that Xue Chen, who was new to Hanmist City, would find out so quickly.
"So, fellow Taoist came here specifically for this pavilion, and want to kill this pavilion in an honest and fair manner." The master of Liebao Pavilion narrowed his eyes slightly, showing a question.
But Xue Chen waved his hand and said with a chuckle: "What the Pavilion Master said is serious, there is no such thing as 'killing'. I do business in a fair and voluntary manner. It's okay if the Pavilion Master doesn't want to trade, but it's a pity...my six hundred thousand
The pure gold will only rot in your own hands."
When they heard the word "six hundred thousand", Liebao Pavilion and Master Liezhu were shocked in vain. Master Liezhu asked hurriedly: "There are really as many as six hundred thousand Taoists?"
"Hehe! Of course it's true. If your pavilion has so many reserves, you won't have to worry about raw materials for a long time. If the pavilion master works harder, it shouldn't be difficult to defeat several other opponents." Xue Chen smiled slyly.
And this also hit the life gate of Liebao Pavilion, with a ruthless look on his face, he raised his head and looked at Xue Chen deeply: "Fellow Taoist's methods are really high, naked conspiracy, this is unbeatable in business.
It is a magic weapon, but few people can master this, and no one can refuse, so I agreed."
"Okay, happy cooperation." Xue Chen immediately stretched out his hand and smiled, showing the confidence of winning.
Half a day later, he settled into an inn and placed dozens of large jade slips on the table. A ball of golden light protruded from his forehead, and then his ten fingers moved rapidly, and a phantom appeared on the entire table. His fingertips seemed like
Keep touching the jade slip.
At the same time, the information in the jade slips flickered and communicated with each other. Some streamer inscriptions were missing, and were either deleted or moved to another jade slip. The streamers flickered, the inscriptions danced, and the desktop became the only light source in the room.
His face was extremely solemn. In one eye, there were countless symbols rolling around, and there were fifty-six miniature vortices. In the other eye, traces of traces were outlined, winding, and finally fixed into a more tortuous line, with nodes one after another.
After a while, he suddenly stopped his hand, and after waiting for three breaths, the afterimages of his fingers on the table finally disappeared, his eyes closed, and the sweat on his temples evaporated.
"Shh!"
After a long time, he opened his eyes and took a deep breath, and said with a smile: "Twenty-five kinds of ores including red gold, thirty-one kinds of immortal grass, plus the specialty water mist flower of Hanmist City, are most suitable for refining a first-grade invisible immortal weapon.
The God-Breaking Needle is in constant demand. They are some precious materials among the first- and second-grade products. After being purified and refined by our divine pool, the value will be increased. Then we will modify the route to the Central Region according to the demand for the materials. If we sell all these things, we will definitely be able to make a big profit.
Make a fortune."
It turns out that Xue Chen purchased red gold and then sold 99% pure gold just to make money, and there was more than one kind of material, a total of fifty-six kinds of materials so far.
These materials are not suitable for sale in every fairy city, and we must try to avoid "collision with business." The more materials there are due to various factors, the more difficult it is to sell them in a given direction, which requires ultra-high computing and deduction capabilities.
And Xue Chen has the Wuxiang Divine Heart, which can exactly accomplish this, and fifty-six types is not his limit. He will continue to acquire other useful materials in the next journey.
Stopping for buying and selling materials, changing routes, and delaying going to the public mall are all for the sake of making money. Because in the public mall, nothing can be done without money.
The prerequisite for all this is the divine pond. Without the divine pond, materials cannot be refined, the gap between cost and market price cannot be widened, and there is no room for huge profits to operate.
After setting a new route, he took out the immortal stones he earned this time. Liebao Pavilion used second-grade immortal stones to deliver them. One stone is equal to ten first-grade stones, and the secrets are more profound.
He opened his mouth and inhaled, the divine chakra in his chest rotated, and the five-color divine light brushed through a pile of fairy stones. The pure white glow passed away, leaving only gray and useless stones.
"open!"
He shouted low, and the acupoints in his body were opened with a crisp sound, and the magic patterns were completely combed. More than three thousand light spots on the body surface could be seen flashing, arranged in a wonderful formation, and the communication with the mysteries of heaven and earth was getting closer and closer, which meant that he could use
The divine power of heaven and earth is stronger, and some strength has been restored.
"The second-grade Immortal Stone is rich in mysteries. It has replenished many incomplete magic patterns at once, and opened more than five hundred ways." Xue Chen was overjoyed, and then took out piles of Immortal Stones to practice.
…
Two days later, Xue Chen arrived at Blue Scale Fairy City. There were many lakes nearby, where a special kind of fairy fish was bred. The scales were blue crystal-colored and extremely tough. It was a good material for refining shield-like defensive fairy weapons.
.
He researched the market as planned and then purchased the fish scales.
“Boss, can your fish scales be cheaper?”
"Fellow Daoist, my price is already an affordable price, and everyone is the same. I don't dare to make it cheap." Like other places, the market price of fish scales is fixed, and most suppliers dare not cut prices and sell more to break the unspoken rules.
But after these days of investigation, Xue Chen has long seen the trading standards of these raw materials - if you can buy more, secret discounts are okay, and the same is true for other suppliers. It depends on who has the lower psychological price. That's the only way
In order to attract more customers.
So, Xue Chen sent a message: "No need to beat around the bush, I can buy more. How much discount can you give me?"
The store owner narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately replied: "Then it depends on how many you need, fellow Taoist? The minimum quantity we want to discount is one thousand pieces of first-grade fish scales, which can be calculated as nine hundred and fifty pieces, for every additional thousand
This is true for all movies.”
"What if there are more than 10,000 pieces?" Xue Chen asked again.
"Uh!" The merchant was shocked, "Ten thousand pieces. Each piece of first-grade fish scales requires at least fifty first-grade immortal stones. Ten thousand pieces is half a million. Fellow Taoist, are you sure you have that much money?"
Xue Chen said nothing and looked at the other party calmly.
"If it's ten thousand tablets, how about I give you seven hundred tablets less?"
"No, a thousand pieces."
"Too many, then I will lose money on the business!"
"A thousand pieces." Xue Chen did not let go.
"Fellow Taoist, you have to be considerate of us. The fisherman of my sect also has to pay a certain cost to purchase it. Let's buy eight hundred pieces. You must know that each fish scale is worth fifty fairy stones. It is not easy to buy so many."
"Then I'll be considerate, nine hundred tablets." Xue Chen remained calm and bargained for a price in an indifferent tone, which made the store owner grit his teeth in anger: "The maximum is eight hundred and fifty tablets. This is the lowest price. Once others know,
I will be ostracized."
"Nine hundred pieces, fixed price. If you don't want to sell them, I'll find someone else." Xue Chen used his last resort, and almost always succeeded.
Seeing Xue Chen turn and leave, the merchant did not immediately try to persuade him to stay, but used intensifying tactics: "Even if you find someone else, it won't be as bad as mine. But if you try and come back again, it will hurt your harmony, but you may not be able to do it."
What’s the price now?”
"Then make a bet," Xue Chen remained unmoved, counting silently in his mind: "One, two, three, four...nine"
"Fellow Taoist, please stay!"
When he heard this sentence, Xue Chen smiled.
——In response to the suggestions of book friends, this chapter strengthens the description of the characteristics of "merchants". In order to complete the plot, it is a longer version of 3,400 words. It will be frequently embellished later to include "merchants" throughout the text to make up for the shortcomings of the first volume.
