Chapter 653 Top Appointment
Master Hongde, who had been treating Deacon Guan, wanted to ask about the situation, but was even driven out by Guan Wei with a gloomy face, which made Hongde very angry at the time.
Now, after the Xuanguang Pavilion is opened, the momentum caused immediately makes the Gudan Tower feel a huge crisis.
As expected, in just a few days after Xuanguang Pavilion opened, the elixir business of Gudan Tower instantly dropped by about 30%, and this proportion has continued to increase over time.
Originally, Gudan Tower had already leased the original Baotang Pavilion due to business needs and was about to open it soon.
But now that Xuanguang Pavilion is making such a fuss, Gudan Tower has begun to lose confidence in the opening of Baotang Pavilion branch.
Even their head office began to sluggish under the storm of Xuanguang Pavilion. If they opened another branch, let alone the business.
"Have you ever investigated where the seventh-grade elixirs in Xuanguang Pavilion came from? As far as I know, there is only one seventh-grade alchemist in Xuanguang Pavilion, right?"
Qi Liming, the owner of the Gudan Tower, said with a gloomy face, his eyes extremely terrifying.
Xi Yichun was also puzzled: "We have investigated. There is indeed only one new seventh-grade alchemist in Xuanguang Pavilion. According to the truth, no matter how powerful a seventh-grade alchemist is, it is impossible for him to refine so many seventh-grade alchemist in such a short time."
Master Hongde and another gray-bearded old man were frowning.
The two of them are two medicine kings in the ancient dan building, so they naturally know that it is difficult to refine the seventh-grade elixir. Even if they refine the elixir, the rate of elixir production will be only 30%, and the ones they refine must be the elixirs they are familiar with.
With an eighth-level elixir and three seventh-level materials, if they were the price of Xuanguang Pavilion, they would not make much profit at all, and they would even lose money if they were not lucky.
This is just an analysis from the materials. If the rent of Xuanguang Pavilion and the energy spent on refining medicines are added, it is unceremonious that Hongde and others will definitely lose money at this price.
They didn't understand how Xuanguang Pavilion persisted.
Qi Liming said in a deep voice: "What do you mean is there other powerful alchemists behind the other party?"
"This..." Xi Yichun smiled bitterly: "I don't know."
"I don't know? Then what do you know." Qi Liming looked at him coldly, looking angry.
"Owner." At this moment, Master Hongde suddenly spoke: "I have an idea, but I don't know whether it is feasible."
"Speak up?"
"The price of elixirs in Xuanguang Pavilion is very cheap, which is at least about 20% lower than the normal seventh-grade elixirs on the market. This price is probably the cost price, or even the loss price. I have reason to believe that this is a big promotion held by the other party in the early stage of opening, and the purpose is to attract more passenger flow."
Speaking of this, Master Hongde couldn't help but smile: "Since that's the case, why don't we pretend to be customers and buy all the cheap elixirs from Xuanguang Pavilion?"
Qi Liming frowned and said, "What are you doing when I buy it? Even if the elixirs from Xuanguang Pavilion are cheaper, we don't need them, right?"
Master Hongde smiled and said, "Owner, we bought it, so we didn't take it ourselves. Their pills are so cheap, and we will definitely raise the price in the future. We only need to buy them and hoard them for a while, and wait until the price recovers before selling them. In this way, we can make a profit of almost 10% by turning around. Why not do it?"
"Hey, this idea is good." Another old man next to him lit up.
"Master Zhen Li, do you think it is feasible?" Qi Liming said in a calm voice.
"How do you say it?" Master Zhen Li frowned and said, "This method is theoretically feasible, because the price of elixirs in Xuanguang Pavilion is indeed far lower than that of the normal seventh-grade elixirs in Tiandu Mansion. Of course, there are some uncertainties."
"First of all, the seventh-grade elixirs in Xuanguang Pavilion must be exchanged with eighth-level materials, and cannot be purchased with Xuanshi. In this way, the large-scale acquisition will seriously consume the inventory of high-level elixirs in our ancient elixirs."
"Secondly, and the most critical point, Xuanguang Pavilion must increase the price of elixirs within a certain period of time. If their prices are always so low, then our Gu Dan Tower will suffer a great loss. Not only will it stockpile a large amount of unnecessary elixirs, but its own spiritual medicine will also be consumed."
"Of course, according to my analysis and Hongde, the current price of seventh-grade elixirs in Xuanguang Pavilion is not profitable, so they still have a great probability that the price of elixirs will increase in the future. If this is the case, our Gudan Tower will still make sure to make a profit."
Zhen Li's words also made Qi Liming make up his mind instantly.
"Okay, that's it." His eyes were cold, "You secretly bought all the seventh-grade elixirs from Xuanguang Pavilion. At the same time, Xi Yichun, you can find out the origin of the people around Su Xiuyi. His Xuanguang Pavilion can expand in various fields at the same time. The origin of the people around him is definitely not simple, and they will not be unknown people."
"yes."
Xi Yichun and others said coldly.
"This Xuanguang Pavilion dares to block my husband's words. I will make him lose all his money, lose all his money, and die without a place to bury him."
A cold light shot out from Qi Li's eyes, with murderous intent.
In the next few days, the seventh-grade elixirs from Xuanguang Pavilion were secretly snapped up by the Gudan Tower.
Almost one was purchased, and the popularity caused a huge sensation.
"Mr. Ye, there seems to be something wrong with buying these seventh-grade pills."
As the president of the Shenxing Chamber of Commerce, Dongfang Xuan was also in charge of the Xuanguang Pavilion, and soon discovered something was wrong.
Every day, as soon as the seventh-grade pill is released, a group of people dressed in casual cultivators will appear quietly and buy them in large quantities.
Two days ago, Dongfang Xuan didn't care, but after a long time, he immediately attracted his attention.
He secretly called Su Xiuyi, but Su Xiuyi knew almost no one of these people.
As an old man who has lived in Xicheng District, Tiandu Prefecture for decades, Su Xiuyi still knows most of the well-known casual cultivators in Xicheng District, but he doesn't know any of the casual cultivators who have been buying seventh-grade elixirs in the past two days, which is a bit strange.
Therefore, this matter was quickly reported to Ye Xuan.
In addition, Dongfang Xuan also found that there were more powerful people in the Tianxuanguang Pavilion. Moreover, from the expressions and actions of these strong people, they all seemed to come from some background forces, and they were a little unkind when examining Xuanguang Pavilion.
This forced Dongfang Xuan to be alert.
"It is obvious that these casual cultivators were sent by a certain organization on purpose, so we don't have to worry about this."
Ye Xuan smiled coldly. How smart he was. When he changed his mind, he knew what the other party was thinking.
It would be ridiculous if the other party thought that this would make him lose money in Xuanguang Pavilion.
"We have to consider these powerful people who suddenly appear."
Ye Xuan knew that over the past period of time, the extremely popular Xuanguang Pavilion has gradually attracted the attention of some major forces.
Especially some alchemy giants and top families in other urban areas have begun to invade their markets in terms of elixirs.
This will naturally arouse hostility from this group of people.
But when you go out to do business, you can’t be afraid that others will not open the door if you think about it.
But Ye Xuan and the others also knew that the current strength of Xuanguang Pavilion was not enough to be unscrupulous in the Tiandu Mansion. It would be a loss to really arouse public outrage from the alchemy forces.
After all, elixirs are only part of Xuanguang Pavilion's business, and the profits are also very high in terms of weapon refining, formations, and soul refining.
Ye Xuan and the others did not need to offend the entire Tiandu Mansion because of the elixir.
"In this way, starting from tomorrow, the exchange of seventh-grade elixirs will begin to be restricted."
Ye Xuan made a decision.
In fact, he made this decision not just because of previous reasons.
There are also other considerations.
Because the exchange of elixirs these days is so popular that it is almost impossible to supply.
In exchange for more materials, Ye Xuan and Yao Lao were refining almost every moment, without even time to practice and rest.
This is obviously unrealistic.
Once the seventh-grade elixir is supplied in limited quantities, he and Yao Lao only need to spend a little time every day on refining, and most of the other time can be used to practice.
After all, making money is only a part of life, and what Ye Xuan and the others need to do is to improve their own strength.
As soon as I decided to do it, the sales of Xuanguang Pavilion were restricted soon from the next day.
For example, there are only ten pills a day. Once ten pills are sold, they are gone and you must buy them again the next day.
Similar to the formation plate, Xuanbing, etc., there are also the same policies, and there will be supply restrictions every day.
But what Ye Xuan and the others did not expect was that their original purpose was to not attract joint exclusion from other regional forces, but precisely because of their hunger sales, Xuanguang Pavilion became even more popular.
Every morning, before the Xuanguang Pavilion opened, the door was crowded with people. In order to exchange for the seventh grade elixir, some warriors even lined up at the door when the door closed yesterday and waited overnight.
This enthusiasm made Ye Xuan and the others dumbfounded and shouted that they couldn't bear it.
Ye Xuan keenly realized that the market demand in Tiandu Mansion was even larger than he imagined.
There are so many strong people in Tiandu Mansion. How can such a small amount of seventh-grade elixir be enough to digest?
It is a fool to have money but not make money. Seeing such a hot scene, Ye Xuan's mind started to move again, wondering if there is any other way to make money.
It is not possible to open sales like before, as it will definitely cause the exclusion of several top forces in Tiandu Mansion again.
Dongfang Xuan could clearly notice that since the sales restrictions, the number of strong people who come to Xuanguang Pavilion every day has decreased a lot.
So Ye Xuan's mind changed and a good idea came out.
Early the next morning, people discovered that there was a plaque erected at the door of Xuanguang Pavilion.
