As the day passed and midnight approached, there weren't many people left, so Ye Feng ordered the doors to be closed to visitors.
With the exception of a few, most of the shop assistants were female cultivators in the early stage of Qi Refining, and none of them had particularly good aptitude.
After a busy day, I didn't even have time to eat a bite of food.
"Boss, that's a total of 45,807,308 pieces! Including high-grade spirit stones..."
Ye Feng nodded, checked the panel, and silently calculated that the profit was about ten million, a little over 20%.
Generally, what people buy from stores are varieties from extremely distant places that are difficult to obtain.
After all, local specialties sold to shops at the purchase price are usually only 50-60% of the original price. Local monks can easily buy them cheaper nearby, and they normally wouldn't go to shops to buy large quantities of goods at an 80% discount.
As for small-scale purchases, there's no way around it; we can only lose money to gain publicity.
Of the ten million, Ye Feng's costs were only a little over ten thousand for shop rent, plus a little over ten thousand for array formation expenses.
As for these people's wages, when calculated over a month, they are simply negligible.
But as the boss, Ye Feng naturally couldn't be so stingy as to only pay wages...
"You've all worked hard today! Chen Ying, take out this 7,300 yuan and distribute it to everyone according to their performance. You should consider both their professional skills and their service attitude!"
"Yes, boss!"
Hearing Ye Feng's words, everyone below was overjoyed, and the day's fatigue didn't seem so tiring anymore.
"Thank you, boss!"
"Thank you, boss!"
...
Seeing that everyone was quite grateful, Ye Feng said a few more words.
"Keep up the good work, everyone. I won't let you down. Although I'm only running this promotion for three months, it doesn't mean the shop will close down. I'll select a group of people as long-term employees. Once you reach the Foundation Establishment stage, your salaries will naturally be higher!"
Foundation building!
Most of them couldn't even reach the mid-stage of Qi Refining, and couldn't even get a job as a tour guide. As for Foundation Establishment, they wouldn't even dare to dream of it.
The boss is giving out so many red envelopes from just one day's earnings; things I never dared to imagine before now seem so close...
After speaking, Ye Feng turned his gaze to Ma Yun.
"And this big client we have today, whoever brought him here, make sure the reward is delivered to him."
Ma Yun nodded upon hearing this.
But actually, the seven or eight girls around her had some other thoughts in their hearts.
After all, they used to be tour guides, earning two or three hundred yuan a day. Now they're on the same level as these girls who aren't tour guides, so they always feel a bit resentful.
However, Ye Feng didn't say much; they had come with the goal of obtaining the Foundation Establishment Pill.
If the attitude remains good, Ye Feng certainly won't be stingy.
However, if Ye Feng were arrogant and unable to focus, he wouldn't have become a philanthropist.
In the past few days, Ye Feng had already dismissed several people.
However, at the time, they were only asked to hand out flyers, which did not affect their work as tour guides.
But things are different now. Ye Feng no longer needs to hire someone to distribute flyers; the tens of thousands of flyers he already has are enough to achieve the desired effect.
No one is needed outside.
Moreover, given today's customer growth rate, a huge surge is definitely expected tomorrow.
What's needed now is more staff inside the store, as well as staff to guide customers outside.
"Here's what you'd like to do: see if you can find me another fifty people during the evening hours, on the same terms!"
Ma Yun looked troubled.
Ye Feng's requirements weren't particularly high or low, but the most important thing to catch his eye was attitude.
All the tour guides she knows are here, so finding another fifty people would be quite a challenge.
Just then, Chen Ying, who was standing nearby, spoke up.
"Boss, is it okay if I'm a mortal?"
"mortal?...."
Ye Feng pondered for only a moment before nodding.
"Okay, but the requirements remain the same: good looks, good figure, and good attitude!"
"no problem!"
After Chen Ying finished speaking, many people below said they had suitable candidates.
Despite such stringent conditions, everyone remained confident, which reassured Ye Feng.
After offering further encouragement, he announced the meeting was adjourned, and before leaving, he told everyone to take three spirit fruits with them.
In addition, Chen Ying was given a red envelope.
This Chen Ying was recruited by Ma Yun from outside. She used to be a tour guide, but she was too old to have achieved the Foundation Establishment stage and had to leave the island.
Her cultivation level was also the highest, at the tenth level of Qi Refining.
Hearing about the reward of Foundation Establishment Pills, he quit his job without hesitation and came to apply.
Because of his highest cultivation level, Ye Feng appointed him as the store manager and errand runner.
Since she was over twenty and had no place to stay on the island, Ye Feng let her stay at the inn.
However, she needs to go find someone tonight, so she can't stay at the shop. After Ye Feng leaves, all the formations in the shop will be activated, and no one can enter or leave.
Back in his room, after giving Xiao Xuan some instructions, Ye Feng hurriedly began his seclusion again.
I had arranged with Yang Dan and the others a few days ago to hold the initiation ceremony for the Yunxia Sect tonight.
That is, everyone buys the same type of pill at a different price.
Ye Feng wasn't disappointed that he could only buy out the Concealed Spirit Technique partially; saving nine hundred million spirit stones was even better.
Without the Five Elements Technique, and unless one is an absolute genius, cultivating the Hidden Spirit Technique offers virtually no benefit other than a slight increase in magical power.
When the time came, a series of intermittent notification sounds appeared in Ye Feng's mind.
"Trading points +3"
"Trading points +16"
"Trading Points +21"
...
To his surprise, there were only twenty-two notification sounds.
It's worth noting that Yang Dan's last report mentioned a total of one hundred people.
So, seventy-eight people passed the test?
How did they do it?
In fact, Ye Feng underestimated the influence of sects and cultivation techniques, especially for these rogue cultivators with extremely low cultivation aptitude. It was already a rare privilege for a sect to take them in and provide them with a safe cultivation environment, let alone let them join a sect and be given cultivation techniques!
Women of low aptitude were often used as breeding tools by their families and given to high-ranking cultivators.
Or perhaps they offer a one-night stand in the hope of conceiving better offspring.
They had no choice before.
But now, as long as they can escape to Yunxia Mountain, it means they are safe.
Neither their families nor Foundation Establishment cultivators could take them away.
This was true before, but now that they belong to the Qingyun Sect's subordinate sects, the status of these female cultivators has become even more unshakeable.
...
Ye Feng sent the results back, then retrieved and stored Yang Dan and the others' jade slips, planning to send them back next time.
Only after doing all this did they leave the secret room.
Xiao Xuan outside wasn't cultivating; instead, she was lying in bed sleeping.
Ye Feng felt a pang of guilt; the shop still needed him for the time being, and he simply couldn't spare the time to stay with him.
Not only that, he would also frequently send her telepathic messages asking her to help with purchases, thus disturbing his cultivation.
Ye Feng gently got into bed and stroked Xiao Xuan's shoulder.
Xiao Xuan, who was in a light sleep, turned around and threw herself into his arms. Just as Ye Feng was about to make a move, Xiao Xuan grabbed his hand.
"Don't move!"
Xiao Xuan's beautiful eyes shone with joy as she spoke softly.
"I think I'm pregnant!"
