Vol 4 Chapter 24: Cause and effect

You can do whatever you want with money.

Long ago, Zhou Ming firmly believed that this was a truth.

Because no matter what problem, as long as it can be solved with money, it is basically not a problem.

So no matter what copy he is in, whether he is strong or weak, he knows the importance of money.

Will find ways to make more money.

Because in most cases, money is also a strength.

For example, in this duel with Martin, if Zhou Ming did n’t get so many magic items, he would fight against Martin with his own strength alone, even if he had a way to beat Martin through some skills, but still has certain risks .

When he got a large number of magic props to put on his body, this risk was almost reduced to zero.

It's just that many people are puzzled. The top staff in Zhou Ming's hands, hundreds of magic scrolls, magic potions ... the total value is nearly ten million gold coins. Is his net worth so high now?

He really bought all these things?

of course not.

He has so much money at hand.

How did he get so many things?

The method is similar to the method of getting the potion formula in the hands of Hall manager.

Zhou Ming "mortgaged" himself and bought these things by credit and payment.

He didn't pay first, and within three years, even with profit, he repaid the 8.51 million gold coins he owed on credit, with an annual interest rate of 5%, for a total of 9 million.

Saying that with Zhou Ming's credibility, those old guys are willing to sell things to him on credit, and believe that he will not run away if he repays the money?

Believe.

More than one believes.

It can be said that most of the old bones in the Magic Association have been brainwashed by him (this analogy is not appropriate, but those old guys do believe him).

One, believe his ability to make money.

Within 1,000 days, 1,000 bottles of "perfect" quality [Sedative Potion] were prepared. This is something a senior pharmacist cannot do. He did it.

A thousand bottles of tranquilizers, if sold at a price of 1,000 gold coins per bottle, it is 1 million gold coins ... Most of them are profits.

In other words, for 9 million gold coins, he can earn it as long as he prepares the [Sedative Potion] for about 50 days.

Secondly, believe his theory.

Believe his theory of "no consumption market without advance consumption".

Take the example of Skanf's "Boom Staff" store. He has been established for hundreds of years. How many Boom Staffs are sold each year?

11 roots.

On average, 11 are sold each year, and most of them are staffs priced below 100,000 gold coins, with an average annual sales not exceeding 500,000.

Those staffs with a price of 300,000 or more than 500,000 gold coins hang on that wall for thirty, fifty, and one hundred years. It is very normal. In the Kingdom of Abdul, few people can afford it.

With only 500,000 sales a year, and hundreds of thousands of profits left after eliminating costs, Zhou Ming asked Shi Ganfu: Can this money expand the store? Can you delve into a more powerful staff? Can you buy a lot of advanced magic materials?

No.

Of course not.

These problems are not unique to Skanf's Staff Shop.

Carlos' "Magic Bookstore".

Mr. Basimbu's "Magic Scroll Shop".

And Mr. Hall's "Gannis Pharmacy" has more or less this problem.

The main performance is the research of less customers, less turnover, and no more resources to invest in higher fields.

After all, it's not much money.

The root cause is that the market in the Kingdom of Yaduk is too small.

But in Zhou Ming's eyes, the small market does not mean that there is no room for profit growth.

There are many ways to enlarge the market.

For example, installment payment, re-sale to rent, price reduction promotion, increase the number of customers ... to achieve the effect of artificially nurturing the market.

At the beginning of Zhou Ming's set, few old men listened, but instead felt ridiculous.

Only Carlos, the manager of the Page Magic Bookstore, listened to Zhou Ming's theory and moved his heart. Based on some of his suggestions, he made some attempts.

Three services were launched.

They are "Member Card Rental Service", "Instalment Book Purchase Service" and "Book Exchange Service".

Book rental service means that the customer pays a deposit, and then charges by the hour, reads in the store, allows a small amount of notes, if the customer damages the book, you need to compensate.

The instalment book refers to a magic book that a customer cannot afford at one time, and can be paid in multiple installments. After the money is paid in full, he can buy the book of the magic book.

Book-for-book exchanges are some magic books or materials from the folk. If they have a certain value, they can be exchanged in a bookstore and exchanged for books. In this way, individuals and bookstore owners have added a book to enrich The respective collections.

The three services, more or less, have some defects, but after its launch, but within two months, the profit of the Page Magic Bookstore has increased by as much as 80%.

With hundreds of regular customers, more than 30 new books have been added.

Manager Carlos can be said to have tasted great sweetness.

Other shops saw it in their eyes and acted one after another. According to Zhou Ming ’s suggestion, they have successively launched some promotional systems or means, such as limited-time specials and discount activities. The effects are quite obvious.

Naturally, in the eyes of these store managers, Zhou Ming became a genius with "flexible mind" and "many ideas".

In addition, before the duel with Martin, Zhou Ming called several old shop managers together and talked to them about the importance of "advertising."

To increase the sales of magic items in the shop, the advertisement must be well played.

For example, the Gauntlet Staff, the magic-core-staffed staff, although expensive, can release the magic without consuming mana. This is very useful when the mana is exhausted. No one cares about the staff, some people don't even know that the staff with the magic core has such a function.

If someone holds this type of staff and uses it in a situation where there are many magicians (such as a ring), it will definitely play a good role.

There are also magic scrolls, which are not expensive, but belong to disposable magic scrolls. Zhou Ming feels that Mr. Basimbu, who opened the "Magic Scroll Shop", is really miserable. The total sales volume is less than 100 rolls, and the annual sales volume is less than 100,000. Many people bought it just to get a fresh look and want to play with it.

In response, Zhou Ming took Mr. Basingb's hand:

"Advertisement, Mr. Basinbu, the reels in your shop must be advertised! You must pass an ad to let those who just want to buy a few magic scrolls to play and learn the real magic scrolls value!"

"Magic Scroll is not for playing, it is a rich magician, which can be used to crush the best weapon of talented magician!"

"It can smooth the gap in strength, it can make the genius' diligence in vain, and it is a necessary life-saving under various dangerous situations."

"The weak only need to buy 10 pieces, and in front of the strong, he can recover his dignity."

"The importance of the magic scroll must be valued by everyone!"

Zhou Ming's remarks, Mr. Basimbu was so touched that he was deeply impressed, and took him as his confidant, and then gave him hundreds of magic scrolls at a very favorable price.

Still insist on no interest.

Shi Ganfu also credited him with the best top staff in the store, on the one hand for advertising.

On the other hand, according to Shi Ganfu: "This staff has been hanging in the store for hundreds of years. It is my favorite work. I don't want to wait for my death before anyone uses it."

After all, there is no opportunity for a product to be used by others. Why do you make it out?

As a producer, I definitely want users to buy his products, and then feedback a good evaluation.

In this way, what appeared in front of Martin and hundreds of teachers and students on the ring was naturally a "super-local version" Zhou Ming with bright eyes.

After the end of this competition, the advertising effect was also clearly achieved.

In just three days, the sales of reels in Mr. Basinbu ’s Magic Scroll Shop exceeded the sum of three years.

The business of Boom Staff has also improved significantly.

Obviously, the "masters" who have a little money in the family and are not bad in strength, don't want to step into Martin's footsteps, get rich by a cheap outburst, and smash them with money.

Another thing is that Zhou Ming agreed to Winnie's duel application to him.

The same is the sign of life and death.

Do your best, regardless of life or death.

As for the duel time, it is set at three months ... Zhou Ming will be busy next, and there will be time to duel after three months.

Yes, Winnie intends to take action in person. Martin's waste is useless. To end this increasingly arrogant Lei Lin, she can only do it in person!

It's just that Leilin's scheming ~ www.readwn.com ~ is luxuriously equipped, she is not afraid to be like Martin, and accidentally plant a fight in front of him?

Ha ha sneer.

Compared to strength, Winnie broke through to an intermediate magician at the age of sixteen. At the age of nineteen, she is quite close to the rank of senior magician.

Compared with financial resources, Gannis Pharmacy has operated for more than three hundred years, and has accumulated a lot of money and rich heritage.

She's afraid to compare the boy with money?

It's hard for her to buy a more luxurious outfit than Leilin's?

To be honest, than to smash money, at least in the Kingdom of Yaduk, she will not be afraid of anyone!

"Lei Lin, hurry to die in my hand, this breath in my heart, I want to keep me there!"

"This time, I will do my best to send you to hell!"

In Winnie's eyes, it was all cold and murderous!

...

Zhou Ming didn't feel very surprised that Winnie wanted to kill herself.

This is the character of some people. They are arrogant, uncomfortable, and a little wronged.

Facing such an opponent, Zhou Ming has no choice but to prepare for the challenge.

Shortly after the duel in the ring, a new Brno Chamber of Medicine was established in the coming month. With the help of various channels, the problem of supplying the 23-flavored pharmaceutical ingredients of [Ningshen Elixir] was successfully solved.

The school's pharmacy laboratory was also successfully established.

With enough herbs and a larger laboratory, Zhou Ming quickly resumed the preparation of [Sedative Elixir].

And he came up with a good way to make the preparation efficiency of the "sedative agent" five times higher on the basis of his personal maximum of 200 bottles per day.

Reached a maximum daily output of 1,000 bottles.

How did he achieve this exaggerated improvement in preparation efficiency?
