Fifty thousand commerce volume? Is that really fifty thousand commerce volume?

Upon seeing the system prompt, Song Jian revealed a puzzled expression; “Vera, what is our business volume for today?” Song Jian asked.

“Two hundred and sixty-three thousand five hundred Doomsday Coins!” Vera glanced at the sales volume and answered directly;

“But why does the system prompt me that the turnover has reached fifty thousand and the store can be upgraded to level 2?” Song Jian asked strangely. In fact, he was able to see the business volume through the system interface, but he was just skeptical about this;

“That is the total turnover; the cumulative turnover of the Spark store since it was opened! However, thanks to today, we went up by more than twenty thousand!” Vera was so excited she was practically jumping for joy: “Boss, shall we upgrade to level 2?”

“Yes, of course, by then, we could also transform more Forging rooms and Alchemy-Pharmacy rooms! Wouldn’t our chances of completing the tasks improve by so much,” Song Jian immediately said.

“Yes, boss, I was thinking the same thing too, but upgrading the shop requires a lot of Doomsday Coins, and upgrading level 1 to level 2 will require one hundred thousand Doomsday Coins!” Vera said: “We don’t have that much money in the Spark Store account!”

“Didn’t we sell more than twenty thousand today?” Song Jian asked curiously; More than twenty thousand, most of which were equipment sold that you provided. The Spark Store only gets a small consignment fee, and those potions and engineering-made items, according to the share split, we only made less than thirty thousand Doomsday Coins. Moreover, we can’t touch this money, we must hand it over to Silver Moon Commerce!” Vera replied;

“You mean to say, more than twenty thousand, it’s all mine?” Song Jian was startled, He only now realized that just the equipment he provided had sold for almost twenty thousand!

“No worries, use my twenty thousand first, upgrade the shop, the task is the priority!” Song Jian hurriedly said.

Now his chances of completing the task have increased. Eventually, the store will belong to him, so the upgrade should still go through. He can’t delay making money!

Soon, a golden light shone in the sky above the Spark Store, and in just a while, the originally single-storey store immediately transformed into a two-storey building.

“An upgrade! They dared to upgrade their store! How does Annie have the audacity to invest money in this soon-to-be-closed store!” Markara was stunned: “Impossible!”

Just then, Vera suddenly placed a sign at the door recruiting forging masters, engineering makers, and alchemy-pharmacy masters! This action thoroughly struck a nerve with Makara!

“Damn it, they’re getting ahead of themselves, even daring to recruit forging masters, unforgivable, utterly unforgivable!” Makara, gasping, immediately turned and entered the shop. He started reporting the situation to the higher- ups of the Solar Fire Commerce via the crystal.

Soon, Makara came out with a smile on his face, ordering: “Increase the treatment for the forging masters, engineering makers, and alchemy pharmacy masters by 30%. We are also recruiting. Hmph, we must not let any life occupation player step into the gate of the Spark Store!”

In this business war, Silver Moon Commerce had already recalled their forging masters sent to Annie. If the Spark Store wants to continue recruiting workers, they must recruit independently.

“Boss, the Solar Fire Commerce across the street has started to compete with us. They have increased life workers’ treatment by 30%. What should we do?” Vera glared at Makara grumpily, angrily finding Song Jian to speak: “Shall we also increase the benefits?”

A price war, I’m afraid we won’t be able to compete with them!” Song Jian said with a slightly furrowed brow;

’Why be afraid, as long as our turnover increases, we can always just make a little less!” Vera said indignantly.

“No, let me think of another way!” Song Jian shook his head.

Makara, watching as life occupation players continuously entered the shop to inquire about treatment, the smile on his face becoming brighter and brighter. If you want to grow and strengthen your store, apart from having special commodities, without life profession players backing you, it would be like a castle in the sky, shallow water with no roots.

Song Jian came to a forging room, gazing at the blazing furnace, and slowly extended his right hand. At this moment, a black flame appeared in his palm.

The moment the black flame appeared, the flames in the furnace were immediately suppressed, shrinking into a ball, flickering on and off, as if it would extinguish at any moment.

Song Jian, his forehead covered in sweat, pooled all his focus into the black flame in his palm. After a while, a fingernail cap-sized flame separated from the black fire and, under Song Jian’s mental control, slowly floated towards the furnace;

Boom!

The moment this small black flame entered the furnace, a burst of violent flame began to burn, and the temperature in the entire forge room instantly increased by ten degrees or so, even the furnace was glowing red;

“I succeeded!” A smile appeared on Song Jian’s face. Initially, this was just his speculation, after making an attempt, he didn’t expect to actually succeed;

After the store was upgraded to level 2, the three original forge rooms were converted by Song Jian into one engineering manufacturer, one pharmacy, and one forging master. Now the second floor has added five more rooms;

Song Jian separated eight small flames from the Abyssal Flame and placed one in each of the eight rooms. You should know, whether it’s potion making, engineering manufacturing, or forging, flames are indispensable.

With the bonus of third-tier magic flame, regardless of whatever item is manufactured, there is a high chance of mutation. For life occupation players, this is an absolutely deadly attraction;

Makara watched as, to date, not a single life occupation player had gone over to apply, and immediately sat back relaxed in his chair;

“Sir, we have now recruited five junior life occupation workers, plus the three sent by headquarters, we are at full capacity!” An employee respectfully said to Makara;

“Full capacity? You mean, there might be other life occupation workers applying across the street?” Makara’s brow furrowed immediately.

‘Not at all sir, many junior life occupation workers have already signed contracts with other stores, those few were attracted to us as their contracts expired. If the stores across want to recruit, they can only recruit god-devotees, or mid-level, high-level occupation workers!” The employee said with a confident smile.

“God-devotees, heh!” A look of disdain appeared on Makara’s face.

There are few players in the God-devotees who choose life occupations. The vast majority are part-timers, only choosing one or two life occupations to study in order to save Doomsday Coins. Naturally, they can’t compete with NPC life occupation workers;

As for mid-level, high-level workers, nurturing such high-profile occupants in

a small level 2 store is beneath them;
