"The weather is really too hot. Although we have a lot of ice, unfortunately, a lot of it melts."
"According to the rules and our profits, we roughly estimate that the price will have to increase at least ten times to break even. But..."
Ten times. Now after a round of buying and selling in the morning, the price has continued to rise to ten amethysts per pound of ice. If it were to increase ten times, it would be a full hundred amethysts.
But how long can a pound of ice last in this environment?!
I'm afraid I won't be able to last even half an hour.
How is this possible?!
Someone has calculated that if you just want to spend a quiet day today, you will need at least dozens of kilograms of ice. If the price is increased ten times, it is estimated that many people will have their wallets emptied.
"However, we also know that if we sell it at ten times the price, everyone may be able to afford it today, but what about tomorrow? What about the day after tomorrow?!"
"I heard Han Sanqian say that this weather will last at least a whole week."
A week?!
A group of people were even more annoyed. After all, this week has really made people feel dark.
You must know that today's consumption is almost all the money everyone earns, and the price of ice is still rising. As time goes by, it is not as simple as making all their money. This
It can simply make most of them die directly.
"So, we adjusted our strategy."
"We can make money, after all, we are in business, but we can't make money from everyone's evil intentions, let alone their lives."
"However, we are still discussing the strategy, so you may still need to wait."
Someone hurriedly said: "How long do we have to wait?"
"We can't tell you this for the time being, because we need several people to discuss this with each other. As you all know, we can't be one boss. After all, buying ice costs such a big sum, so the result needs to be discussed by several bosses. There are
It may be discussed in a while, but it may be difficult for everyone to unify their opinions, and the delay will be longer..."
】
"However, everyone can rest assured that we will do our best to give everyone a reply and a satisfactory answer as soon as possible."
After saying that, the man put the wooden sign indicating the suspension of business on the table, got up and went back.
At this moment, the crowd exploded.
It's such a damn hot day and they suddenly can't buy ice. Isn't this equivalent to killing them?
How is this possible?!
"This...why is it happening so suddenly?"
"Yes, we still need to discuss it. If the discussion time is too long, then...then don't we have to wait forever? It doesn't matter if we wait, but the problem is that this damn heat will not stop just because we wait.
Come down."
"Yes, think about it. We will have to be directly exposed to this sweltering heat for the next few hours or even longer. This... isn't this going to kill us?"
Grief spread across the land, and many people wanted to cry without tears.
"Shall we go to the city lord and let him think of a solution? Otherwise, if we really wait like this, many of us will die on the spot before they can finish discussing it."
"What's the use of looking for the city lord? It's reasonable for people to sell ice. When the city lord comes, he can only do it in the heat."
Yes, if you are a little more rational, it is actually very clear that whether the merchant deliberately delays the sale of ice or not, the reason is very sufficient and legitimate.
Regardless of this point, people still hold the absolute truth.
At this moment, with a loud shout, the city lord arrived...
