Chapter 140 Countermeasures
Such things also happened in various places in Youling City.
But because the scope of dissemination was not large, it only caused a stir in their area.
Since a competition was being held in Hong'an Street, many monks came, and naturally many monks knew about the grocery store's measure.
One person tells ten people, ten people tell a hundred people.
Soon, the third floor of the grocery store was also occupied.
But there are still many monks coming into the store to inquire.
"What should we do with Qiu Qian? We won't be able to do business if this continues!"
Xu Qiuqian looked at the people crowded outside the grocery store.
This really can't go on like this.
They still mainly sell alchemy array instruments and talismans, but she had just asked Chen Wu to open up and renovate other stores yesterday, so it was impossible for it to be done so quickly.
"It's okay. I already have a solution. Shi Qian, go out and talk to the elders of the other major families and ask them to send someone to call the leaders of the major families and tell them that I have something to discuss with them."
The competitions were held smoothly these days, so the major families sent an elder and other disciples to preside over and maintain order.
As for the others, they naturally went about doing other things.
But when I have nothing to do, I will definitely come and take a look, after all, this competition is very novel.
Li Shiqian responded.
After going out, he came back in half an hour.
"Qiu Qian, do you want to tell this to the other major families as well?"
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
"Will they affect us?" Although she could understand Xu Qiuqian's intention, after all, one person could not swallow it all alone, and as things developed, the other major families would sooner or later know about it.
Maybe he already knew it.
So it is better to mention it proactively, and you can also sell one to a few major families.
But she was worried that the intervention of several big families would make their business worse. After all, they were just a grocery store, and the stores of several big families were spread all over Youling City and even Xuanyun Continent.
"No, don't worry, I have my own solution."
Hearing this, Li Shiqian was no longer worried.
An hour later, people from several major families arrived one after another.
Seeing the people from several major families, everyone's attention was drawn over again.
But now, they don’t think that it is the major families who are promoting Xu Qiuqian.
Through the previous two days' competitions and the incident with the Soul Summoning Formation, Xu Qiuqian has shown everyone with her own strength that the reason why she is treated differently by several major families is not because of flattery, but because she is qualified! Seeing the cultivators practicing in the Soul Summoning Formation in the store, Xie Manqing asked curiously: "Manager Xu, it would be fine if you didn't drive them away when they were practicing in your store, but you actually set up a Soul Summoning Formation for them?"
No matter how kind you are, you shouldn't be like this, right?
Chen Zhuozheng had heard of it.
"I called you all here because of this matter. Please follow me to the second floor."
"What about the third floor?"
"The third floor is also full of people."
Go up to the second floor.
Everyone couldn't help but look at the things placed on the cylinders.
"Every time I see it, I can't help but wonder where Manager Xu got all these good things from."
“Yeah, I really want to buy everything!”
Upon hearing this, Xu Qiuqian looked at Xiao Jueshan who spoke, and her eyes lit up.
"So do you want to buy it?"
Not to mention all of them, even just buying one or two is fine.
Xiao Jueshan was extremely embarrassed: "I was just talking... hehe..."
Xu Qiuqian curled her lips in disappointment.
"Tsk, if you don't have that many spirit stones to buy, don't talk big. Aren't you afraid of sticking your tongue out?" Xie Manqing said to Xiao Jueshan unceremoniously.
No matter how dissatisfied Xiao Jueshan was, he did not retort.
This Xie Manqing is a notoriously crazy woman. If he dares to retort her with one word, she will retort him with a hundred different words, or even resort to violence.
It’s not that he can’t beat him.
A good man doesn't fight with a woman.
Everyone looked at Xu Qiuqian.
"I believe everyone has heard about the spirit-summoning formation in my store."
Everyone nodded.
After all, many cultivators suddenly poured into Xu Qiuqian's shop and stayed there all day, so naturally someone noticed them.
Only Xie Manqing was really busy these two days, and the inner clan disciples did not have time to tell her.
She asked in confusion: "The matter of the spirit-summoning formation? What is it?"
Xu Qiuqian then told the whole story from beginning to end.
When Xie Manqing heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Manager Xu, this is a great idea!"
The others nodded.
It’s good indeed.
When they heard about it, they couldn't help but sigh that Xu Qiuqian could actually come up with this idea.
I don’t know whether Xu Qiuqian’s ideas are too novel or their ideas are too rigid.
Anyway, they never thought of using this method.
Xu Qiuqian smiled slightly.
"I called you here today to tell you that if you want to do the same, you should act as soon as possible."
Everyone was stunned when they heard this.
There was silence.
Then, Xiao Jueshan asked her cautiously.
"You won't take our spirit stones?"
Xu Qiuqian shook her head.
Everyone was even more shocked.
Not only because she didn't accept their spirit stones, but also because Xu Qiuqian had reminded them to act early! Because they thought Xu Qiuqian was warning them not to learn from her.
After all, it goes without saying that this is definitely a profitable business.
And for such a profitable business, Xu Qiuqian not only did not stop them, but even specifically reminded them! "Why?"
"We have been working together for such a long time, so of course I have to think of you first when there are benefits." Xu Qiuqian explained with a smile.
Xiao Jueshan was silent.
After a long while, he was moved and said, "Manager Xu, I was very prejudiced against you in the past. I apologize to you. From today on, I will never have any prejudice against you again. You have great love in your heart!"
“……”It wouldn’t have risen to such a high level.
Although others also felt that Xiao Jueshan had gone a bit too far, they did feel so in their hearts.
Who would have such a good and profitable business and not keep it secret?
Even if they don't hide it, they must be warned to prevent them from following suit.
Of course, even if they agree on the surface, they won’t really stop learning.
If you have spirit stones but don't make money, you're a bastard! Even though she knew that Xu Qiuqian did this because she knew that this matter could not be kept secret, she could say it so casually without any grudges and even reminded them to act as soon as possible.
This carefree attitude alone is enough to make them like her very much!
"However, I have a small reminder, or suggestion." Xu Qiuqian spoke again.
"What is it?"
"I suggest that you do this in Hong'an Street. It's not that other stores can't do it, but it's better to focus on Hong'an Street."
"Why?"
Chen Zhuozheng thought for a moment and said, "Do you have any follow-up plans?"
Xu Qiuqian nodded.
"In any case, it won't do you any harm to concentrate on Hong'an Street."
Of course it won't do her any harm.
The others accepted it after hearing it, but——
"Our shops have already been arranged. Even if one or two are vacant, only one or two shops can be used for other cultivators to practice."
But this is not concentration at all!
Xu Qiuqian smiled again and took out a stack of land deeds from his arms.
"I have the deeds to ten shops here. Are you interested in buying them?"
“…”
She sold the title deed they gave her for free to them at a high price, right?!
