There is no doubt that Sanqila's rumored phonograph is effective, but we also have to consider that the ghost world is full of dangers and transportation is inconvenient.
The first group to arrive at the Burning Mall was the official merchant team of the Blazing Oasis, and Cang Yan was among them, in the form of an avatar doll.
"arrive!"
"This is indeed the oasis we sold."
In the distance, there was a lighthouse flashing with golden light in the gray fog, like a beacon guiding the way ahead - this was a special building inspired by the Dawn Lighthouse, and it had only one effect, which was to serve as a guide. The flashing golden light could be seen from afar even through the thick gray fog.
This ability is actually useless.
Oases try to hide themselves as much as possible. Who would hang a big light bulb that can be seen from kilometers away?
But it must be said that with the guidance of the glittering golden light, the merchants of the Burning Oasis saved a lot of time in finding the way. As they continued to move forward along the beacon, the thick gray fog that enveloped the surroundings quickly dissipated, the sun shone on the earth, and a not very large oasis appeared in front of the team.
The ground is smooth, and a wide road leads straight ahead, with some landscape flowers planted on both sides of the road.
Further away is a small town surrounded by city walls, flashing neon lights.
...
...
——Ranhuo Mall.
Although the original appearance of the oasis could no longer be seen, Cang Yan was very sure after comparing the coordinates.
"It's only been over two months, and it's already been built?"
"No, excluding the time spent on the road, the oasis was only built for a little over a month at most."
It doesn't look like it has just been built. Could it be that this is really a super chamber of commerce that spans a large domain?
Cang Yan didn't quite believe Qianmian's words at that time.
It's not that there are no chambers of commerce that cross domains, but when they cross domains, they cross to prosperous domains. Their Falling Star Cave domain is a relatively new domain. Not to mention that foreign forces have built and operated here, even caravans from outside the domain have only been seen a few times in a hundred years.
He had never heard of the name of the Burning Chamber of Commerce.
"Let's go in and take a look."
The interior of the mall was a bit deserted. Apart from the occasional patrolman in fiery red uniforms, there were almost no outsiders to be seen.
There weren't many patrol officers, and even fewer scattered throughout the oasis. At a glance, there were hardly any people in sight.
If it weren't for the exquisite and new buildings around it, this would almost be a dilapidated oasis.
The doors of the shops on both sides of the road were closed, with words "Available for Rent" marked on them. As they continued along the main road, they saw a magnificent building shrouded in colorful lights.
Burning supermarket!
The door was open, and through the crystal glass one could see some of the merchandise hanging on display cabinets, all of which exuded a faint treasure-like glow, and looked quite extraordinary at first glance.
"This is an epic weapon! A war blade with powerful cutting ability!"
An elderly man with a goatee took a few steps forward, looking a little excited.
He is the president of the official chamber of commerce of the Burning Oasis, 'Mo Yan'. He is over a hundred years old and his own strength is not strong. He is only at the fourth awakening inhuman level. Due to his age, the old man has no hope of making any further progress.
But to be able to serve as the president of the Zhuoyan Chamber of Commerce, he must have something extraordinary.
The old man is extremely knowledgeable and has a unique awakening ability. He can recognize most of the strange weapons, potions, props, and materials at a glance. Even if he cannot recognize them, he can judge the approximate effect of their abilities.
At this moment, he recognized this epic war blade, and there was more than one...
The dazzling array of treasures in the display cabinets dazzled the eyes of the people from the Burning Oasis. It’s not like they haven’t seen epic treasures before, but when so many treasures are placed together, the visual impact is still too strong.
I can't help but admire the boldness of the Burning Chamber of Commerce.
"With so many treasures displayed openly, aren't they afraid of encountering robbers?"
A powerful member of the Chamber of Commerce muttered.
In his opinion, this oasis was small and sparsely guarded, so he could just smash the display case, put the treasure into the storage device, and then run out of the oasis as fast as possible...
By the time the Burning Chamber of Commerce came to their senses, the robbers had already disappeared into the gray fog. Taking advantage of the strange environment, even though the Chamber of Commerce was powerful, it would be difficult to catch up with the robbers.
"Perhaps, the Burning Mall is confident enough?"
"Didn't Lord Yan say that this is most likely an external force? A force that can do business across large domains cannot be weak."
"Well, I heard that this Burning Mall also sells legendary treasures?"
"Yes, guest."
Bai Yansi came over.
She was wearing a dress similar to a cheongsam, embroidered with a pattern that looked like a fire phoenix, which made her look elegant and noble.
She is the main person in charge of this hypermarket. Although she is also the vice president of the Witch Sisterhood, there is nothing major happening on Blue Star anymore. A talent like Bai Yansi naturally cannot stay in the sisterhood and waste time.
(Ilohi: Bare teeth!)
So I was transferred here.
So does Elohi, who is the head of Oasis' security department.
White Goose Silk Road,
"The legendary treasures here include the Origin Water that can enhance potential, the Pure Divine Light that can increase the probability of advancing to a mythical level, a variety of legendary materials, and legendary tricks. These legendary treasures can also be visited, but reservations must be made in advance. As for the price..."
The price is naturally high, and it cannot be purchased with just Ghost Crystals.
There are also many restrictions, such as the need to reach a certain membership level in the Ranhuo Mall, etc.!
As the person in charge of the store, Bai Yansi naturally knew the reason.
The first reason is that legendary treasures are rare and expensive, the second is that the organization's supply is limited, especially treasures like the Water of Origin, which are subject to purchase restrictions.
However, being good at observing people's expressions, she soon realized that although these people swallowed their saliva, they did not have much desire to buy.
Don't you believe it?
no.
Her mind raced and she soon understood the reason: this group of people came from the Burning Oasis!
However, treasures like the Water of Origin and Pure Divine Light are mainly for super powers. Only from super powers can one make enough money.
Facing the big oasis...
She paused and continued,
"We don't just have high-end treasures. We sell all kinds of goods in our Burning Supermarket, including strange weapons, potions, props, materials, etc. We have everything from high-end to low-end."
"The first floor you see is the display cabinet area, which is designed to display various commodities; the second floor is the daily necessities area, which has basically everything you can think of; the third floor is the food area, which has ingredients, cooked food, snacks, etc. The ingredients range from ordinary grains to epic ingredients, and there are discounts for bulk transactions, dear~"
"The fourth floor is the equipment and medicine sales area, the fifth floor is the props, materials, and other types of items sales area, and the sixth floor is the top sales area that requires reservations."
After touring the exhibition area on the first floor, Cang Yan and his group headed to the second floor.
This is the area for daily necessities, including toiletries, household items, cooking supplies, decorative items, cosmetics, health products, etc. The categories are similar to those on Blue Star, but the goods shipped here for sale are all specially customized.
The packaging is exquisite and the materials are of high quality. There is no indication of product batch number, production date, or materials used on it.
Just simple names and usage effects.
To ensure the simplicity of packaging.
What stands out is that it is an expensive...noble item.
"Rose scented tissue, this tissue has a rose pattern printed on it, and you can smell a faint rose scent when you wipe it. What an elegant tissue!"
Cang Yan and his group were somewhat excited.
Although they at Oasis can also produce paper towels, they are limited by raw materials, technology, equipment and other issues. The paper towels they produce are very rough. They are usable but not comfortable. As nobles, they are not willing to use the same low-quality products as a group of common people.
Can only be purchased from the City of Falling Stars.
But there is no rose-scented tissue paper in the City of Falling Stars!
"It's not just rose scent, there are also tulip, potpourri and other scents. And look at how soft this tissue is, and the delicate patterns on it. This is simply a work of art!"
Mo Yan's eyes widened.
He has traveled all over the country for many years, but he has never seen such exquisite tissue paper. How many processes does it take? !
Isn’t it such a waste!
The paper towels from Falling Star City are far inferior to those here. Of course, Mo Yan believes that Falling Star City is also capable of producing such paper towels, but it would be meaningless if the cost was too high.
The products in the Ranhuo Mall are so exquisitely made, but what comes with it is a high price, right?
Before the thought came to an end, a low cry was heard beside him.
“So cheap?!”
Mo Yan was stunned for a moment, and his eyes gradually moved downwards.
[Rose scented tissue: 1 crystal/pack, a bundle of 10 packs only costs 8.8 crystals.]
Not 888, not 88, just 8.8.
8.8 ghost crystals, you can earn that much by just going out and hunting a few ghosts and digging for materials, and you can buy enough paper towels to last for half a year or a year.
This, this is much cheaper than the Falling Star City! And it is more exquisite and softer than the Falling Star!
So does Cang Yan.
He thought for a while and said, "Just order 1,000 bundles."
Just as he finished speaking, Mo Yan pulled him aside and whispered, "Lord Cang Yan, we are traveling light this time, and the carriage can only carry a limited amount of stuff. We still have to buy other things later, so we can't just take all the tissues back, right?"
"Well, you're right. Let's see."
Paper towels are so affordable and good quality, what if other daily necessities are the same?
Wouldn't that save a considerable amount of money? Besides, the Burning Mall is closer to their Blazing Oasis, and it is much easier to travel back and forth than to the Star Fortress!
He became serious, looked at Mo Yan and said,
"Investigate the prices of goods here immediately and compare them to see how much they are cheaper than those bought in the Falling Star City."
"Yes, sir!"
Greeting other people in the Chamber of Commerce, Mo Yan immediately dispersed into the various sales areas.
Try, compare and summarize.
After half a day, Mo Yan wiped the sweat off his face, with an excited look on his face.
"Master Cang Yan, the daily necessities here are more complete than those in Falling Star City! Moreover, they are all very cheap!"
Cang Yan also showed a look of joy.
These daily necessities were just ordinary items that were not of high quality. The price of each item was extremely cheap. In his eyes, there was no difference whether they were several times or even dozens of times cheaper.
Just like ten cents, one dollar, ten dollars, that's all.
But if you want to conduct large transactions, the gap will be huge.
Can save a lot of money!
Of course, the best way to save money is not to buy, but this is not impossible. In this case, cost-effectiveness becomes very important. What's more, the Ranhuo Mall is both cheap and high-end.
"I'll leave these to you. Also, don't forget to negotiate a price with the Burning Mall."
"Master Cang Yan, please rest assured. Cheap is cheap, and bargaining is bargaining. These are two different things. I know."
"Well, when more merchants come here, the inventory of the Burning Mall may be insufficient. You can order a few more batches now. Don't worry about the transportation problem. I will arrange a few more teams to come."
After saying that, he waved his hand, and the Chamber of Commerce President Mo Yan made arrangements.
Cang Yan continued to stroll around, walking into the women's clothing exhibition area, which was even more dazzling. There were so many styles that he could hardly imagine that his eyes were dazzled.
He stopped in front of a gorgeous pale blue dress with wavy patterns.
[Pearl of the Sea]
[Description: It is mainly made of second-level material Minglu silk, and is carefully made by the Chamber of Commerce's textile master 'Canghai'. When worn, it has a wave-like brilliance, making the wearer the most dazzling pearl in the party.]
[Price: 888 Weird Crystals]
This is still a non-grade fashion item, not a green-level equipment.
For the sake of beauty and special effects, a lot of defensive power has been sacrificed, and at most it is more resilient than ordinary clothing.
But Cang Yan was very satisfied.
Is it expensive? No, it's super cheap!
"I'll give this piece to the Second Madam, but the price is too cheap and doesn't reflect my heart... Maybe the Burning Mall is still relatively conservative at the beginning. In the future, there will be more high-end fashions with more high-end materials, right?"
He looked at Bai Yansi.
Bai Yansi was stunned for a moment. A useless piece of clothing that cost several or even dozens of times the price of green-level equipment was actually so cheap?
In her heart, she called him a fat sheep.
With a bright smile on his face, he said, "Don't worry, sir. I will report your suggestions to the higher-ups."
After saying that, she led this noble and wealthy fat sheep... the Lord of the Burning Oasis, to continue shopping in the high-end area of the fashion sales district.
Watching Cang Yan start his shopping journey.
"This one is suitable for my third wife."
"This one is suitable for my Sixth Madam."
"These three pieces are all packed up, suitable for my eleventh lady."
Cang Yan was in a very happy mood after spending the whole day shopping in the mall.
This is an experience that you don’t have in Xinghui Fortress.
Ranhuo Mall, what a great place.
…
…
“The service at the Burning Mall is very good and the prices are very affordable, especially their daily necessities and food sections.”
"That's right. The price of daily necessities here is 40% cheaper than in Falling Star City. The quality is also higher. You can also buy a lot of items that are not available in Falling Star City!"
"It's too cheap. I think the Burning Fire Mall is losing money. Maybe they just arrived at the Falling Star Cave and are trying to increase sales."
"Maybe, but the loss is also suffered by the Burning Chamber of Commerce. We are making a huge profit no matter what!"
"Will this cause dissatisfaction in Falling Star City?"
"If there is any dissatisfaction, it should be directed at the Burning Mall. What does it have to do with us?"
"That's right. All we need to do is keep a low profile. Keep a low profile and make money. Keep a low profile and make a lot of money."
More than a month later, several heads of chambers of commerce from various oases were having a chat and agreed on their respective trading areas.
The goods they purchased from the Ranhuo Mall were not only shipped back to their own large oasis, but some were also prepared to be shipped to various small oases for sale to make another profit.
At this time, we should make an agreement in advance, agree on the scope of trade, unify the price, and make money together.
It's a win-win!
They won twice!
The only worry is that one day the Ranhuo Mall will raise prices or run out of stock.
…
"Price increase? Out of stock?"
"Are these guys so well-mannered?"
He didn't know how much profit Falling Star City made from selling these ordinary supplies and food, but for him, the profit was at least 60%. The main costs were still in transportation and the salaries of the mall employees.
The manufacturing costs are just the price of materials, electricity, and Blue Star’s labor costs.
Not worth mentioning.
As for out of stock, that is even more impossible.
How many people are there in a big oasis? Moreover, the positioning of daily necessities is luxury goods, and the target audience is only the nobles and quasi-nobles of the big oasis, which narrows the scope several times.
Blue Star can support billions of people, so how can it not support a few nobles?
This is the advantage of owning a world.
"I didn't expect that the best-selling items are these luxury goods. These are the ones with the highest profits. It's a huge profit!"
Everyone is making huge profits, so the question is, who is losing money?
