The most troublesome thing was that at that time Zhou Ying was very arrogant and wanted to express himself, so he directly signed a three-year contract with the supplier.
Spiritual rice is one of the best foods for warriors to practice. Long-term consumption can not only promote the growth of true energy, but also slightly improve physical fitness.
Semi-spiritual rice is a plant between spiritual rice and ordinary rice, but its price is much cheaper than spiritual rice.
"How different is the effect of this semi-spiritual rice from ordinary spiritual rice?" After hearing this, Chen Longxuan had an idea.
"Although this semi-spiritual rice is not famous enough in Nanjun, its effect can reach 70% of that of ordinary spiritual rice! I am talking about the lowest effect! The family who planted this semi-spiritual rice migrated to Nanjun from other places, so no one knows about it.
The price given to me is not high." Zhou Ying explained.
"The best semi-spiritual rice in Nan County is sold for seven taels of silver per catty, and its effect is only 60% of that of ordinary spiritual rice! I sell it for six taels of silver per catty, which is already very cheap."
Chen Longxuan calculated silently in his heart, and then said: "I have a plan here. Do you want to do something big?"
"Do you have any idea? I have 50,000 kilograms and a half of spiritual rice on hand right now. This is all my funds." Zhou Ying said hurriedly.
"Yes! I can guarantee that your half-spiritual rice will be sold at a price of no less than six taels per catty, and I will share half of the excess profit!" Chen Longxuan said calmly.
He is in urgent need of money now.
"If that's the case, I won't take any of the extra profits!" Zhou Ying said immediately.
He paid four taels of silver for a pound and a half of rice. If he could sell all of it for six taels, he would have made a huge profit.
"That won't work. Without your family's industry and resources, I can't do anything by myself!" Chen Longxuan shook his head.
After all, he is a modern person and has certain principles in how he behaves and does things.
Then he asked Zhou Ying to get pen and paper to sign the contract.
In Zhou's grain shop, both the shopkeeper and the waiters seemed a little listless at this time.
Chen's Grain Shop in the next street was crowded with people, but there were only a few customers from the grain shop on our side.
"Master, you are finally back. The Chen's Grain Store bought half-spiritual rice and gave gifts, which drove away many of our old customers." Seeing Zhou Ying come back, the shopkeeper immediately came to complain.
"It doesn't matter, you do this first!" Zhou Ying said a few words in the shopkeeper's ear, and the latter nodded doubtfully, and then immediately arranged the manpower.
"Chen Xuan, will it be effective if you do this?" Zhou Ying asked, still a little uneasy.
"The effect of your semi-spiritual rice is second only to ordinary spiritual rice. The so-called aroma of wine is also afraid of the depth of the alley, so what we need now is to build momentum!" Chen Longxuan tapped his fingers on the counter, confident.
In this Xuanyu Continent, businesses mostly rely on word-of-mouth for their promotion, and then they offer some discounts when they open their doors and then disappear.
In Chen Longxuan's opinion, this is extremely crude. Any marketing plan on the planet can completely destroy the top merchants here.
"The shopkeeper is going to arrange some people. We need a lot of support to build momentum. In addition, you also need to go to the college to find some people with good connections to support you." Chen Longxuan continued.
"Second, your current price for half-spiritual rice is still too low! Ordinary spiritual rice costs at least fifteen taels of silver per catty, but our half-spiritual rice can be sold for fifteen taels of silver per catty." Chen Longxuan continued.
"How can this be done? Now we can't sell even seven taels and one catty, and ten taels and one catty will be completely ruined in our hands." The shopkeeper said hurriedly.
The young master seems to be a very stable classmate, but why is he so unreliable? If the young master loses everything, he will not be able to survive in the Zhou family.
"Haha, don't worry, we have a trump card next!" Chen Longxuan laughed.
"Then we will also launch an event where you will draw a grand prize if you buy half a kilogram of spiritual rice! Anyone who buys two kilograms of spiritual rice in our store will be eligible for a lottery. The highest reward is five thousand taels of silver."
"Five thousand taels? Is that okay?" Zhou Ying and the shopkeeper were immediately stunned.
I have never heard of it in Beiyu Country. You can win a grand prize when you buy something, and the grand prize is directly worth 5,000 taels of silver. Doesn’t this mean you will go bankrupt?
"This is called gambling psychology." Chen Longxuan added the finishing touch.
"Wonderful!" The shopkeeper was Lao Jianghu after all, and he immediately realized the key point.
The grain store now has 50,000 kilograms of half-spiritual rice in stock, and Chen Longxuan has directly raised the price by three taels of silver per kilogram. Once all of this is sold, it will be an extra 150,000 taels of silver.
As for the grand prize of 5,000 taels of silver, there is one, but it cannot be much. If you use 50,000 taels as the total reward, you can still earn an additional 100,000 taels.
"Shopkeeper, is this possible?" Zhou Ying felt a little dizzy.
"Master, Master Chen is a peerless talent!" the shopkeeper said excitedly! Although this activity of drawing big prizes can easily be imitated, but so what.
Once this semi-spiritual rice is promoted on a large scale, those warriors will taste the benefits and sales will be endless.
The so-called lottery draw is just a sales method, but it can open up long-term market channels.
"Sir, that Zhou Ying has returned from school!" At this time, at Chen's grain store, the shopkeeper and a young warrior reported.
"Come back as soon as you come back, what's all the fuss about! I, Chen Feng, am also a student at Canghai Academy. How can that useless Zhou Ying come back and reverse the current one-sided situation?" the young warrior said disdainfully.
"It is said that in a small town in Nan County, a young man aspired to martial arts, but his family was poor, so he ate several kilograms of Xuanling rice every day..." As night fell, the storyteller in Longsheng Restaurant was shocked.
Mu, then began to tell a story about a young warrior.
Chen Longxuan and Zhou Ying sat by the window, eating food, drinking wine and listening to stories.
This story was actually written by Chen Longxuan. When the storyteller talks about the key point, the three words "Xuan Lingmi" will appear.
The power of advertising communication has been proven on earth and is extremely effective.
At this time, among the other five major restaurants in Canghai County, different stories were also told from the mouths of storytellers, and Xuanling Rice was the point that easily attracted people's attention.
"Ah, I've heard of this Mysterious Spirit Rice in Nan County. Although it's half Spirit Rice, it's 80% as effective as Spirit Rice!" Suddenly a warrior at the peak of the Mysterious Level spoke up.
"Is the effect so good? Moreover, even teenagers from poor families can buy some to eat occasionally. It should not be expensive."
"This Xuanling rice is not worth fifteen taels of silver per catty, but it's a pity that we don't seem to have it in Canghai County!"
"Hey, I seemed to have seen the Xuanling Rice brand when I passed by Zhou's Grain Shop earlier. I wonder if I was just blinded."
"It's a pity that Zhou's Grain Shop is closed now, otherwise it wouldn't take much time to go and have a look."
At this time, the people arranged by Zhou Ying spoke one after another in the restaurant, which immediately aroused the interest of many people.
