It is not easy to open a shop in Shenyue Continent. It is impossible for Shen Yanxiao to do it by herself, because the preliminary preparation work is too cumbersome, and renting a shop and hiring elves to sell will require a lot of money. She will deduct it from Yue. Xi and Suzaku don't have a few crystal coins left. They can only feed and drink for a few days at most, and forget about the rest.
In addition to opening their own shops, Shenyue Continent also has other methods of trading.
It is somewhat similar to the auction house in Guangming Continent, but instead of conducting auctions, it conducts price sales.
Rather than saying it is an auction house, it is more appropriate to say it is a trading house.
Elves who have something to sell can list their items in the trading house, and the elves in the trading house will be responsible for selling them. After the transaction is completed, the trading house will take a part of the profit.
This kind of trading house cannot be opened by ordinary elves, because it requires too many manpower and enough shops. Only tribes can create a real trading house.
The trading houses of Emerald City are all on South Street, and they are packed with people at first glance.
The emblems of each tribe hang on the door of every trading house.
Shen Yanxiao looked at several trading houses and found that there were many items for sale, and the prices of some items really made Shen Yanxiao greedy.
Many bows and arrows worth thousands of gold in Guangming Continent only cost a few hundred or even dozens of gold coins in the trading houses of Shenyue Continent, and the price difference is dozens of times.
Because the Shenyue Continent is the origin of high-quality trees and there are countless blacksmiths who make bows and arrows, the prices of bows and arrows here are staggeringly low.
In addition to bows and arrows, there is another thing that makes Shen Yanxiao very coveted.
That's the potion!
Elves have a talent for potions that surpasses all races, but there is no elf who can't prepare potions, and there are all kinds of herbs all over the Shenyue Continent, and the cost is not much at all, so the price of potions here is already cheap. No different than rotten cabbage.
A bottle of awakening potion worth several hundred gold coins in Guangming Continent only costs a dozen crystal coins in Shenyue Continent.
A bottle of master-level potion worth tens of thousands of gold coins only costs a few hundred crystal coins in Shenyue Continent.
So much so that when Shen Yanxiao, a senior pharmacist, saw these cheap medicines that made people vomit blood, he almost rushed over and bought them all.
Needless to say, just by bringing these potions back to Guangming Continent for secondary sales, you can easily earn dozens of times the price difference.
This is simply a huge profit!
If Shen Yanxiao hadn't been so strapped for money now, she would have bought back all the bows, arrows and potions right away.
Once these things are transported to Guangming Continent, they will be mountains of gold!
Shen Yanxiao finally understood why so many businessmen were willing to take risks and cross the ocean to do business in Shenyue Continent. There was simply gold everywhere, and there was so much gold to pick up.
The finished bows, arrows and potions are so cheap, let alone the raw materials?
The fire of making money in Shen Yanxiao's heart is burning brightly.
You must know that humans have great restrictions when trading with elves. There are limits on the quantity of things they can buy, and finished products like potions and bows and arrows will never be sold to humans.
In the minds of the elves, the things they make are not worthy of human beings, and humans can only buy some raw materials in Shenyue Continent.
Compared with purchasing finished products, the profit from raw materials is slightly smaller, but there is still a tenfold price difference.
