Lin Xiao and Li Muxue stood in front of the window sill in Suyu Zongtian Sucheng, Baixueju, watching the shopkeeper of Baixueju downstairs send someone away. They turned around and saw Lin Xiao, showing a bitter smile.
"Ignore them, let's wait for a while before talking"
Lin Xiao said to the shopkeeper, who cupped his hands and went back to work.
"Master, I suddenly discovered that these monks in Dongzhou are quite interesting. Do you think the people in this Five Elements Company are really stupid or fake?"
"There are not many really stupid people who can be sent out, they are just playing some small tricks, huh"
Lin Xiao sneered and said, the war in Dongzhou has been going on for almost two months, and news about Dongzhou has been coming continuously. It is said that a million monks have been killed in the battle, and the daily casualties are tens of thousands.
The knowledgeable people in Zhongzhou had actually begun to sympathize with Dongzhou and were ready to help. At this time, the Five Elements companies affiliated to Dongzhou also took action, and everyone was happy.
Unexpectedly, the result of the conversation shocked Lin Xiao and others, because they once again used the rhetoric of human beings being supreme and mutual assistance, and then lowered the price to an extremely low level.
If it were sold at their price, the profit would be so meager that it would not even cover the cost of labor. It could be said to be a complete loss. In this world, there are people who do business of beheading, but are there people who do business where they lose money?
Therefore, Lin Xiao, who was listening on the sidelines, was extremely angry. He was so angry that he laughed and asked the shopkeeper to see the guests off before finishing the conversation.
"Now I understand what Master said. He talks about doctrines but thinks about business. Does this Dongzhou monk really think that everyone in the world is a fool?"
"I don't know what they are thinking, but I think they look like fools. Since there is no shortage of resources, let's just wait and see who can survive."
Lin Xiao sneered and said that people who treat others as fools are actually the real fools. Of course, the people in Dongzhou are not stupid, because the next day, Yi Meier came to the door with a sad look.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, I'm in trouble."
"Mei'er, don't be anxious, tell me slowly what's going on."
"We were hoarding resources before. I have used up all the working capital and squeezed it into goods. If these things are not sold, my Fu Zhen Hall will not even be able to pay out monthly salary."
"The Five Elements Trading Company in Dongzhou came to see you again today, and they also slightly raised the price, right?"
"Ah, Fellow Daoist Lin, how did you know?"
"I understand, what a powerful method, I almost got deceived by them."
Lin Xiao said coldly, "It's only one day." Lin Xiao put away yesterday's contempt. The people in these Dongzhou shops are really powerful. They completely took advantage of the hoarding mentality of profiteers like them, letting them hoard goods and spend money.
Light liquidity.
Then they deliberately lowered the price to the lowest. Don't say anything else, Dongzhou can still support it for ten days and a half months or even one or two months. As long as the merchants' capital chain cannot support it, they will slightly increase the price.
, someone will definitely sell it by then, and then they can purchase a large amount of resources at the lowest price.
In Central Continent, the only ones with strong capital to withstand this kind of consumption are the businesses under the major sects. Small businesses like Fu Zhentang simply cannot sustain this. This is something they have encountered long ago.
Lin Xiao explained these principles, and Yi Meier's face suddenly turned pale. She realized that she didn't seem to have any talent in business, but she was just an ordinary person, and she fell into the trap.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, what should we do now?"
"Don't worry, originally I wanted to help them sincerely. The price is not high at all, just a normal profit. In this case, don't blame me for being cruel, shopkeeper."
"Master, I'm here"
"Inform us that the front line of Nanzhou is tight and the front line of Xizhou is urgent. The Wu Kingdom of Nanzhou is willing to work hard for Nanzhou and Xizhou, so it will purchase resources at a high price. All prices will be a premium of 50% on the basis of the market price. The acquisition will begin in three days."
"Ah, Master, this..."
“Do as I say”
"Yes, Master"
·········
The Five Elements Company is the general store in Dongzhou. It is usually controlled by five colleges and operates independently. It is a loose alliance. But when the war breaks out, the Five Elements Company will come together and form a rope to strengthen itself and compete for the right to speak in the market.
, they have done this not once or twice, and have reaped the benefits many times. It is the same this time. The five companies have unified their banner and their tone.
There is a stronghold of the Five Elements Company in Tiansu City. There are more than thirty people present at this time. The one with the highest cultivation level is a monk in the Shenxu stage. He is one of the general managers of the Five Elements Company in Zhongzhou. Tiansu City is because of the location of the Paradise Villa.
The reason is that over the past hundred years, its prosperity has surpassed that of other big cities, so he also sits here.
"Teacher, I contacted seventy-eight shops in Tiansu City today, and seven of them are willing to sell goods."
A monk walked up to the Shenxu Stage monk and said that since more than two months ago, he has been directing the Dongzhou monk's series of activities in Central Continent. After more than two months of preparation, this is his
Big move.
He deliberately asked the Dongzhou monks to publicize the plight of Dongzhou, so that the merchants would find it profitable, hoard them on a large scale, gather resources, and then deliberately lower the price to the lowest, but he would not let them really lose money, and then procrastinate.
, until the business could no longer support it, and then he would raise the price little by little.
Regarding working capital, he knew that except for the firms established by major sects, those small firms would not be able to sustain themselves and would be sold when the time came. Then he would be able to receive a large amount of money at a price far lower than expected.
resources to alleviate the crisis in Dongzhou. When these resources are used up, if the war in Dongzhou has not been resolved, you can ask for help from various major sects and trade. This is a manifestation of maximizing Dongzhou's interests.
"Okay, I'll contact you tomorrow and the price will go up by one point."
"Yes, teacher, I'm afraid all the businesses in Tiansu City will have to work for us this time. Teacher is brilliant."
"Haha, it's a trivial matter. Since these profiteers want to make war profits, then let's play with them. I want to see how powerful the monks from Central Continent are."
The Shen Xuqi sneered and said that the monks in Central Continent have always been arrogant and considered themselves orthodox. They felt that Central Continent was the supreme place of the human race and looked down on the monks from the four continents. The monks from the other three continents were willing to let Central Continent exploit them, but Dongzhou was not willing.
The disciple was flattering that Shenxu period, when suddenly another disciple from the company hurried in, came to him and said, "Teacher, it's not good, there is news that is bad for us outside."
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly"
"Baixueju is the Baixueju of Nanzhou Wu Kingdom. They have released the news that the Nanzhou front line is in a tight situation and the Xizhou front line is in urgent need of resources. Therefore, Baixueju is willing to purchase resources at 50% of the market price. There is no limit to who can come. Three
Acquisitions will begin in the future”
"What, Baixueju..."
The monks in the Divine Void Stage were immediately horrified. Their bids were not even lower than the market price, and they compressed the profits to the extreme. They improved little by little, but Bai Xueju received the goods at 50% of the market price, which completely destroyed his previous
The layout made him panic.
If Dongzhou Company does not act, then the resources will be shipped to Nanzhou. There are also resources in Zhongzhou. If Nanzhou uses them, Dongzhou will not have them. However, if he acts and purchases them at this price, it will be three times less than he expected.
Forty percent, this was a huge loss for Dongzhou, and it immediately put him in a difficult situation.
"What is the origin of this Baixue Residence?"
"Teacher, I know that the people who control Baixueju are a pair of masters and apprentices. They come from the Martial Kingdom of Nanzhou and have a great reputation in Central Continent. The master is called apprentice. In Central Continent, there is a boy who is good at making money and has the reputation of turning stones into gold. He is extremely happy.
Villa, Baixueju, Xiaoyao Villa, and the Tianyinmen tour in previous years were all created by this person.
Moreover, his martial arts are very powerful. There are rumors in the world that he only broke through the Divine Void Stage for about 200 years, but he has the experience of killing the Golden Body Stage.
His apprentice Li Muxue is also quite legendary. She is already a sixth-level high-grade alchemist at a young age. She is one of the alchemists with the highest alchemy skills in Tiansu City, and she is also a member of the Qing Emperor Li family."
“What a big deal”
The Shenxu stage monk exclaimed. From Lin Xiao's resume, he had already seen that this person was a business genius. He had seen through his plan and was sniping at him and starting a business war with him.
"Send the order to investigate Baixueju and see how much goods they have hoarded. I'll see how he ends up in three days."
The Shenxu stage monk quickly calmed down again. If you want to fight, then let's fight. He doesn't believe that a small country in Nanzhou can affect his overall situation. No matter how strong Bai Xueju is, he can't compare with the big sects.
, what's more, he dares to make dangerous moves. If he can't find the resources to buy it, it will look good. This move will be self-defeating.
Monk Dongzhou ran up and down and quickly investigated Baixueju's apparent strength. Baixueju also had over a billion in turnover and tens of millions of profits a year, but this strength was not enough. Dongzhou was now condensed.
The power of a continent and the power of tens of millions of monks are definitely not something they can match.
He was so sure that he ignored Baixueju's announcement. Three days later, he appeared at the door of Baixueju in person. At this time, there was a long queue at the door of Baixueju. Many people from small businesses were selling goods.
The monks in Baixueju were so busy that they were sweating profusely.
"Teacher, what should I do?"
"Don't be afraid, this is a trick. Have you noticed? Bai Xueju is stalling for time."
"Ah, teacher, how did they do it?"
"When you hear the voices coming from Baixueju, they are arguing. They are bargaining. Baixueju's announcement said that the price is 50% higher than the market price, but the market price is also floating. There is no standard, and the quality of the goods
The level is also uneven. He only needs to control the market price and quality. In fact, he will not pay much more at all. And he deliberately makes things difficult for small merchants in this regard, which greatly delays the transaction time. I guarantee that he
I don’t have much money at all.”
"I see, the teacher is brilliant, then it depends on how they end up, maybe they will go bankrupt because of this."
"Ha ha ha ha···"
The Shenxu stage monk laughed, but when he noticed someone behind him, something was wrong. When he looked back, his eyes suddenly widened.
