Chapter 184 I'm Rich!
The news of obtaining the precious grain seeds kept Zuo Shan awake at night.
That night, unable to sleep, she tossed and turned in bed. She thought she might as well log on to the Ninth Forum to join in the fun and check for the latest information about the legendary underground seed bank.
When she logged in, she found that her post selling sausages was still on the homepage.
After carefully reading the reason, I realized that the kind-hearted guy nicknamed "The Ninth Forum Know-It-All" had already received the sausages and, following the instructions in the private message she sent to all her customers, steamed the sausages, sliced them, and ate them.
As a result, after taking a bite, my taste buds were completely won over, and I left ten comments on her post, each one praising its deliciousness in various ways.
If Zuo Shan had seen this post, he would have definitely thought he was a shill hired by the original poster. But surprisingly, the users on the Ninth Forum all believed him.
As a result, the post on Zuo Shan selling sausages received countless comments, all urging her to restock quickly. They were even willing to pay a deposit in advance to reserve the next batch of goods.
Below her post, she even received a hidden reply that was automatically pinned to the top, asking to be the first to pre-order her next batch of goods, and to order 40 portions, or 100 kilograms of sausages at once.
According to the rules of the Ninth Forum, only members of level A or above are entitled to post anonymous replies and have their replies pinned to the top, so that the original poster can see the reply first.
Well, privilege is everywhere.
Someone who can have a membership level of A or above must be a hidden big shot, and Zuo Shan can't afford to offend such a person.
Zuo Shan thought that this hidden big shot might have bought the sausages to feed his pets, just like how Earthlings buy ham sausages to feed their cats and dogs. Otherwise, who could eat so many sausages by themselves?
"Achoo!" In a spacious mansion in District 48, Red Fox was stroking a mutated fox with fiery red fur when he suddenly sneezed.
"Who's talking badly about me behind my back? Ah Lie, should we go and kill him?" the red fox asked the mutated fire fox.
The mutated fire fox, A Lie, rolled its eyes at him, its amber eyes gleaming with a captivating light in the night.
The owner often has eccentricities and likes to run around the world.
This time, the draw was exceptionally generous, even venturing to a remote and impoverished area like District 48. He even took over the position of the district's hurricane messenger and personally went to a member's home to collect the goods. I really don't know what he's after.
"Of course you don't understand what I'm after. Even though you've broken through to the fifth rank, Ah Lie, you're still just a mutated fox. How could you possibly understand human thought?" The man flicked Ah Lie's forehead with his finger.
Ah Lie got angry and disappeared from his arms, teleporting to the next room.
Suddenly feeling empty in his arms, the man chuckled lazily, "Heh! Ah Lie's temper is growing just as much as his superpowers!"
Ah Lie ignored him and curled up his tail to go to sleep. In the middle of the night, what normal person would kill someone who was talking badly about him because of a sneeze?
Seriously, how can you possibly know who's talking badly about you behind your back? That's just plain stupid.
The brain-dead Firefox tapped on his wristwatch, and a newly sent message appeared before his eyes as a holographic projection.
"Anonymous Mr.: Due to the high demand for my sausages made with my exclusive secret spices, my stock of raw materials has run out. The price of the raw materials that I urgently purchased has increased several times over, so the price of the sausages has also doubled."
So, would you like to order 10 more?
Firefox couldn't help but smile; he could almost picture the sly smile on the woman's face as she wrote that message.
That day, when he disguised himself as a hurricane messenger and went to pick up the goods in person, the woman took out the goods with a calm and composed demeanor, and it didn't look like the goods were sold out at all.
The reason she did this was simply because she saw that there were too many people making reservations, so she took the opportunity to raise prices.
However, this is how things always are in the commodity trade: when supply falls short of demand, prices will rise. It's not surprising at all that she's gone to the trouble of finding a reasonable excuse.
Thinking of this, he quickly typed three words on the virtual screen in front of him: "I'm rich!"
After clicking send, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Actually, he didn't want to eat any sausages at all; he just wanted to join in the fun. Why should others be able to buy them on his forum while he, the forum owner, could only watch from afar?
Upon receiving the reply, Zuo Shan felt that this hidden big shot in the forum was perfectly described with one phrase—"foolish and rich!"
Okay, if someone is willing to pay a high price, she'll have to go through the trouble of making another batch of sausages.
It's still a mix of wolf meat and pork; the pure pork version is reserved for Xiaobai and the others.
Zuo Shan did the math and realized that if the price of sausages doubled, it would be more cost-effective for her to just buy wolf meat to cook.
Why wouldn't she take advantage of a business that could make money?
Thinking of this, she pinned a reply from the original poster to the post where she was selling sausages:
"In order to allow everyone to enjoy delicious sausages, I have decided to purchase a batch of raw materials at a high price and rush to produce a batch of high-quality and delicious sausages as soon as possible. They can be shipped out in three days."
However, due to the doubling of raw material prices, the price of sausages has also doubled. Please forgive us!
This batch consists of 50 units, and 10 have already been pre-ordered by eager members. There are 40 units remaining, so act fast!
While posting, she first sent the reservation link to the anonymous person, who replied instantly and sent her a screenshot of the successful payment for 10 orders.
Members who saw the link in the post quickly placed orders, and within just half an hour, the remaining 40 sausages were all sold out.
