Chapter 51: Successful Development! Online Auction!
Today was the first day of the Great Mystery Sacred Lands Ulitmate Storage Rings market debut. The managers of the Great Mystery Shops all over the Great Yan Province are brimming with joy.
Across the street from the Great Mystery Shop
In front of the Heavenly Origin Pavilion
Several well-dressed cultivators, with their bodies shining with precious auras, wore a look of disappointment and regret.
Were late again!
The shop just opened, and the Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator rings are already sold out?
The Heavenly Origin Sacred Land really looks down on people. Cant you produce more Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator rings every day? What, are you afraid we cant afford it?
Im also a refiner. If it comes to it, Heavenly Origin Pavilion, sell me the raw materials. Ill still give you a top-quality spirit stone, but I will refine it myself.
I didnt get one again. Today, the Fairy of Melody invited the Heavens Chosen for a discussion. If I am the only one without a Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator ring, how embarrassing would that be!
These complaints made the cultivators who came to buy the regular Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator rings silent.
Rushing to buy the expensive Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator was one thing.
But now someone wanted to buy the raw materials at the original price and refine it themselves!
This
Isnt this a bit too arrogant?
Did your spirit stones really come from a strong wind?
The world of the rich, we really dont understand!
Seeing this, the manager of the Great Mystery Shop smiled even wider.
The customers demand for the Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator was so great.
But the Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands production was completely insufficient, unable to satisfy the customers.
Their own Ulitmate Storage Rings would undoubtedly make a huge impact.
They would let the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land be arrogant.
They would let the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land not expand production.
Their customers would soon become theirs, the Great Mystery Shops.
At this moment, the customers who failed to buy the Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator were already leaving one after another.
One of them walked towards the Great Mystery Shop.
He was an old customer of the Great Mystery Shop.
So as soon as he entered the Great Mystery Shop, he immediately made his request.
Manager, give me two bottles of Great Mystery Pills, and a Clear Heart Jade Pendant!
But just as the words fell, his gaze was attracted by the display stand in the middle of the shop.
Transparent glass display stand.
The cushion inside it was made from the fur of a Nascent Soul Realm demonic beast.
And on top of the beast fur, theres a very familiar silver ring.
Dragon Blood Colored Silver, Space Stone exposed.
Isnt this the Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator?
The customer immediately lit up, Manager, your shop has also started selling Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicators? Did you start cooperating with the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land?
In the world of cultivation, its quite common for ones shop to sell other peoples goods.
Most shops sell whatever made money and was popular.
But the shops of the Four Sacred Lands had always been too arrogant to sell others products.
Hearing this, the manager immediately laughed, standing next to the display stand and proudly said, Fellow Daoist Zhang, this is not a Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator!
This is a new product from our Great Mystery Sacred Land, the Ulitmate Storage Ring.
It looks exactly the same as the Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator, except for the Little Spirit Communicator function, everything else is the same.
The quality of our Space Stones is even better than that of the Ulitmate Little Spirit Communicator.
The Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands Premium Little Spirit Communicator is in short supply, and its hard to buy, the shopkeeper said. Why doesnt friend Zhang buy one of our Great Mystery Sacred Lands Premium Storage Rings? It looks exactly the same when worn.
The customer surnamed Zhang frowned slightly.
So, it wasnt a Premium Little Spirit Communicator, but a knock-off product from the Great Mystery Sacred Land?
Upon hearing this, Zhang lost interest and waved his hand in refusal. No need for now, just give me the items I asked for earlier.
The shopkeeper had anticipated his surprise and was taken aback by such a reaction. He quickly added, Our Premium Storage Ring is only one-third of the price of the Premium Little Spirit Communicator, costing only thirty mid-grade spirit stones. Both products are identical in terms of material and appearance. The only difference is the Little Spirit Communicator feature. However, you can buy a regular Little Spirit Communicator for just one mid-grade spirit stone, which is much more cost-effective than the Premium Little Spirit Communicator.
The shopkeeper emphasized the price advantage of his product. However, after his explanation, Zhang seemed even less interested.
What the hell? I frequently dine at high-class restaurants in the Huanhuan Sect, and every time, I have to spend one or two top-grade spirit stones to explore the mysteries of cultivation with several sisters from the Huanhuan Sect. Am I someone who lacks a single top-grade spirit stone? Should I buy a cheap knock-off? I cant afford to lose face like that.
Zhang declined again, took his medicine and purifying jade pendant, paid, and left immediately, leaving the shopkeeper with a frown.
It wasnt supposed to happen like this. The customer clearly wanted to buy the Premium Little Spirit Communicator. Why was he not interested in their ring at all?
As a day passed, the shopkeeper of the Great Mystery Shop in Great Seal City, who had been full of anticipation and joy in the morning, was now feeling devastated!
An entire day had passed, and they had only sold one ring. This was completely different from what he had imagined.
Meanwhile, at the Great Mystery Sacred Land, the Saint Master and other elders were waiting eagerly for the first days sales data. The Premium Little Spirit Communicator was currently in high demand, and their high-quality, low-cost knock-off product was sure to attract customers. They wondered if the fifty thousand rings they had prepared would be enough.
In the midst of everyones anticipation, the elder in charge of external affairs arrived. Before he could even steady himself, an elder couldnt help but ask, How many were sold?
Hearing the question, the external affairs elders mouth twitched slightly as he held up three fingers. Everyones eyes lit up instantly.
The Great Mystery Saint Master even showed a smile, Thirty thousand pieces? Thats not bad at all.
Although we didnt sell out, its only the first day on the market. It will surely sell better in the future.
The elders all nodded in agreement.
However, the external affairs elder quickly shook his head, Saint Master, its not thirty thousand pieces! Its only three pieces!
Our supreme storage rings only sold three pieces throughout the entire Great Yan Province today!
What?
The face of the Great Mystery Saint Master froze in an instant
Three pieces?
In one whole day, only three pieces were sold?
How is that possible!
The great hall fell into silence.
Everyones expressions were extremely complicated.
The expression of the Great Mystery Saint Master was the most complex.
However, at this moment, the external affairs elder stepped up to ease the situation, Everyone, this is normal. After all, its just the first day on the market, and few people know about it.
Do you remember when Heavenly Origins Little Spirit Communicator rings first came on the market? No one was interested, right?
When more people know about it, it will naturally become popular.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
It seemed like there was hope again!
However, on the second day: two pieces were sold.
On the third day: only one piece was sold.
On the fourth day: not a single piece was sold.
On the fifth day
The mood of the higher-ups of Great Mystery Sacred Land fell to rock bottom along with the sales.
Outside world
As one of the four major sacred lands, the actions of Great Mystery Sacred Land were always in the spotlight.
The news of their storage rings, which looked exactly like the Little Spirit Communicator rings, spread far and wide.
Same appearance, same material, and cheaper price.
This aroused the envy of many forces.
They felt that Great Mystery Sacred Land was sure to make a big profit from this.
They also wanted to do the same, but they could only bully the small forces.
Dare to blatantly steal the business of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land? Isnt that seeking death?
However, the knockoff that was being watched by everyone was not selling.
This contrast aroused everyones curiosity!
Why isnt anyone buying the supreme storage rings?
It shouldnt be like this!
People were discussing, guessing all kinds of possibilities.
Some believed it was due to the lack of the Little Spirit Communicator function.
Others believed that the price was still too high, it should be set at twenty medium-grade spirit stones.
It wa not until in the Heavenly Origin Pavilions shopkeeper casually chatting with a friend revealed the Saint Masters opinion on the knockoffs.
Great Mystery Sacred Land has taken the wrong path
Simply put, the rich look down on it, and the poor wont buy it.
Great Mystery Sacred Land chose the most foolish method, direct copying.
I dont know which big brain made this decision, its simply beyond stupid!
The words of the Saint Master of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land spread like wildfire throughout the entire Great Yan Province.
All the curious people suddenly understood why the knockoff of Great Mystery Sacred Land failed.
Indeed.
The rich found it embarrassing.
The poor would only buy the most common storage rings. Only a madman would spend thirty medium-grade spirit stones to buy something more expensive.
What the Saint Master of Heavenly Origin Sacred Land said made perfect sense.
But what amused everyone the most was the Saint Master of Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands last sentence: I dont know which big brain made this decision, its simply beyond stupid!.
Many people knew that the one who suggested the idea of copying was the lofty Saint Master of Great Mystery Sacred Land.
Big brain, which was supposed to be a compliment, had a different flavor once spoken.
Especially when it referred to a Saint Master of a Sacred Land, it caused those who enjoyed gossip to secretly snicker behind their backs!
The term big brain suddenly caught fire!
Now, when teachers in the Great Yan Province scold their disciples for being foolish, they would say, You really are a big brain.
Great Mystery Sacred Land
Their much-anticipated supreme storage rings were not selling at all, which had greatly annoyed the Great Mystery Saint Master.
And when he heard what Ye Chen had said, especially the last sentence, his face turned pale in an instant, and he was trembling with anger.
Presumptuous! Absolutely presumptuous!
When he learned that these words had spread widely, and that virtually all cultivators in the Great Yan Province knew about it, he nearly spat out a mouthful of blood!
Grinding his teeth, he roared in anger, Ye Chen, you and I are irreconcilable!
Dare to insult me like this, I will make you pay the price in the future!
Ye Chen didnt expect that his words to the external affairs elder would spread so widely and have such a big impact.
But even if he knew, Ye Chen wouldnt care.
Because
The full functionality of the online auction platform has officially been successfully developed!
His internet project was officially underway
However, before he could celebrate, there was yet another commotion.
The Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator rings, which originally werent selling well, began to fly off the shelves!
In the blink of an eye, sales skyrocketed!
The Great Mystery Sacred Land, which had been struggling to sell their supreme storage rings, was left in shock.
What had happened?
Why did the Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator rings suddenly become so popular?
Just as they were pondering over this, the news spread throughout the Great Yan Province like wildfire.
The Heavenly Origin Sacred Land had launched an online platform for auctions, and it was the Little Spirit Communicator rings that served as the access key to this platform!
Whoever had a Little Spirit Communicator ring could participate in the online auctions, bid on various treasures, and even put their own items up for auction!
This news set off a frenzy!
The Little Spirit Communicator rings, which had been unpopular, suddenly became the hottest item in the Great Yan Province!
Everyone wanted to get their hands on one!
Meanwhile, the Great Mystery Sacred Lands supreme storage rings, despite their similar appearance and lower price, were completely ignored.
People were no longer interested in just storage capability or price, but the additional value that the Little Spirit Communicator rings could provide.
In the face of this sudden turn of events, the Great Mystery Saint Master could only watch helplessly as their sales plummeted, while the Heavenly Origin Sacred Lands Little Spirit Communicator rings soared in popularity.
The Great Mystery Saint Master was left in a state of utter frustration and resentment
But the most dramatic part was yet to come.
The term big brain, which had been widely used to mock the Great Mystery Saint Master, had now become a popular catchphrase in the Great Yan Province!
And every time someone used it, they couldnt help but think of the Great Mystery Sacred Land and its Saint Master
In the blink of an eye, the Great Mystery Saint Master had become the laughingstock of the Great Yan Province.
And all this was just the beginning. The real storm was yet to come
