Chapter 1194 298. Cheap Rune Board
The magic caravan went to the alley of the rune board workshop in the seventh block. The road in the alley was full of magic caravans, leaving only a narrow passage for a magic caravan. The driver parked the magic caravan in the rune At the gate of the board workshop, Katerina and I got out of the car.

A group of magic shop owners were waiting in front of the gate of the Rune Plate Workshop. Seeing that Katerina and I also came up, and seeing me wearing an ordinary Mithril magic long-distance running, they thought we were also here to participate in the purchase The owner of the magic shop at the price-negotiating meeting, no one cares about the two of us at all.

More than a dozen owners of magic shops gathered together, chatting on their own.

Although the other magic shop owners didn't participate, some of them leaned against the wall and waited quietly for the pricing meeting to start, while some listened around the chatting magic shop owners, and some anxiously gathered at the door. looked into the workshop.

The door of the workshop was closed tightly, and there was a notice board hanging on the gray wall at the door, on which it was written crookedly with a lime pen. The tall clock tower not far from the seventh block, it was just one o'clock at this time, so many magic shop bosses were waiting here so early, probably all of them came for the 'Fire Gathering' rune board.

I went straight to the steps in front of the workshop gate, and Katerina took a step forward and patted the closed wooden door of the workshop with her hand.

After a while, the wooden door of the workshop creaked, and a gap opened from the inside. Murray poked his head out from the inside and saw Katerina and I standing at the door, and quickly turned sideways to let Katerina and me in. When the magic shop owners reacted, the arched wooden door made of pine slats was quickly closed by Murray again.

When Katerina and I walked into the courtyard of the Rune Plate Workshop, we found that except for the piles of thin copper plates, almost all the passages and open spaces in the entire courtyard were filled with copper hot pots. Several workers are bringing in the copper hot pot from the back door, and the two female workers in the yard here quickly put the magic-weave 'focus' rune plate in the magic-sealing box into the copper hot pot.

"Why do you start preparing these copper hot pots now?" I looked at the mess in the workshop and there was almost no place to settle, and asked Murray.

Murray wiped the sweat from his forehead, and complained to me with a mournful face: "The grocery store that ordered the copper hot pot shells before told me, and gave the goods of my order to others. I took the truck to go to the store in the morning. I was notified before the delivery, and the copper hot pot I ordered had to wait for another half a month to be delivered, so I will go to his grandma."

"Fortunately, I also know that there are several copper ware shops in the seventh block that also make this kind of copper hot pot. I collected these copper hot pots from the copper ware shop in the seventh block this morning. The specifications are slightly different, and the bases are different. is a standard, and it's no problem installing our 'Focus' rune plates."

"It's almost time. We can't keep the bosses of the magic shops waiting outside the workshop and invite them in."

"Okay, I'll open the door right away." Murray promised, walked to the door and opened the door of the workshop.

The owners of the magic shop outside the gate of the workshop immediately surrounded Murray, and everyone began to complain to Murray: "Murray, what are you doing, tell us to come this afternoon, we rushed over here , but let us blow the cold wind at the door for a long time."

A magic shop owner standing behind was full of resentment and yelled from behind: "That's right, now the magic market is full of copper hot pots with 'Fighting Fire' rune plates, although the price is a bit higher , but there is always something to sell!"

The magic shop owners who surrounded Murray in front also said: "Murray, we all know the situation of your rune board workshop. If you have goods, you can tell me. It doesn't matter if you don't have them. You always have to give everyone an explanation for buying copper hot pots in your rune plate workshop."

"That's right! That's right!" The magic merchants next to him echoed.

The dozen or so magic merchants who gathered together before became the main force at once, and one of them stopped Murray and said, "The city of San Carlos is not only making Mithril rune tablets now, but I also started to process some cheap red copper rune plates. It is said that those silver-plated 'Fire Concentration' rune plates in the past were more than three times more expensive than your magic pattern 'Concentration Fire' rune plates. Your Murray Copper Hot Pot It’s cheap, and everyone is willing to buy it.”

The magic businessman paused for a moment, his tone was a little more serious, and he said to Murray: "But now, those low-end red copper 'focusing fire' rune plates are only as good as your magic pattern 'focusing fire' runes. The rune board is less than [-]% more expensive, how can you Murray, a new type of rune board, have the ability to occupy the copper hot pot market?"

Then the voice of the magic businessman was like a warm spring breeze, and he whispered to Murray: "I heard from Goss, the manager of North Duisburg, that you ordered a large amount of thin copper plates from them. Isn't it a bit big?"

Murray cleared his throat, and said tactfully to the magic dealers around him: "This time we are preparing for the price meeting of the copper hot pot, and we also want to negotiate a reasonable price with you, and we also intend to take the issue of the sales limit."

"I'm sorry, because the workshop is really a bit chaotic, and everyone has been waiting for a long time..." Murray said with a smile.

After speaking, he turned around and took the magic merchant through the front corridor into the yard of the magic workshop.

The afternoon sun shines on the courtyard, and thousands of copper hot pots are placed all over the courtyard, reflecting the dazzling light under the sunlight.

The magic merchants looked at the copper hot pots spread all over the corridor in surprise, and held their breath, looking at the copper hot pots in front of them in surprise.

Murray took these magic merchants to the meeting room on the second floor. Due to time constraints, the preparations were a bit hasty. The chairs placed in the meeting room were improvised. The first two rows of chairs looked okay, and the last few rows The chairs were improvised with some planks.

The magic merchants seemed to have been stimulated in the yard, and they didn't recover until they went upstairs. They didn't care how shabby the benches in the conference room were. They whispered and talked in the conference room. sit down.

Probably because of the large amount of copper hot pots piled up in the courtyard, the magic businessman, who was a bit arrogant before, now looks a little worried.

You don't need to think about it, you can know that these worried magic merchants probably bought other types of copper hot pots. Now seeing the piles of copper hot pots in the workshop, they are worried that those copper hot pots with slightly higher prices will be backlogged at once. Here, it would be a disaster.

Murray stood on the temporary podium in the conference room, and there was a copper hot pot on the table in front of him. He pressed one hand on the cylindrical chimney of the copper hot pot, and said to everyone: "Everyone here, you may Everyone knows me, my name is Murray, and I am currently the person in charge of this workshop."

He surreptitiously glanced my way, and Katerina and I stood in the corner, like a young magic merchant with a retinue.

I heard Murray continue to say: "I sincerely thank you all for coming here in your busy schedule to participate in the pricing meeting of the 'Fighting Fire' rune board held in our workshop."

There was sparse applause from the audience, and it seemed that no one was willing to buy Murray's account just based on a few words from Murray.

Murray didn't care, and then said to everyone: "I believe that you have seen it in the yard before going upstairs. For this pricing meeting, our workshop has prepared a total of four thousand magic pattern 'concentrating fire' talismans." Writing board."

Although these magic merchants had some visual understanding before, when Murray said the specific number, the magic merchants who sat quietly in their seats were still in an uproar. Everyone did not expect that Murray would suddenly Take out so many copper hot pots.

Seeing the reactions of the magic merchants, Murray frowned a little, and became extremely fluent in Imperial language: "As we all know, the magic pattern copper hot pot produced by our rune workshop has three major characteristics: energy saving, stable flame core, high quality and low price. "

He touched his chin, as if a little ashamed of his brashness.

But then he said to those magic merchants: "Our magic workshop has been committed to the production and research of low-end magic items. In order to gradually popularize these magic items among the poor, we will make magic rune boards In the meantime, we will still continue to adjust the price of the magic rune board."

Hearing that Murray said that the price would continue to drop, many magic merchants in the audience couldn't sit still. They began to discuss in whispers, and there was a lot of noise in the conference room.

Murray continued: "However, every time we adjust the price of the magic pattern rune board, we will hold a pricing meeting like today."

Hearing that Murray said that every time the price was adjusted, a pricing meeting would be held, and the magic merchants in the meeting room were slightly relieved.

Everyone listened intently as Murray continued: "Now the retail price of our copper hot pot in the magic market in the imperial capital is about one gold coin, but the price of each magic store is more or less slightly different. The price of similar magic rune board copper hot pots on the market fluctuates around three gold coins, even though there are also low-end rune boards on the market, our copper hot pot is still 30.00% cheaper than similar products.”

Murray stopped entertaining these magic merchants, and stood on the stage and said loudly: "I now announce that the retail price of the copper hotpot set by this workshop is [-] silver coins a piece."

The magic merchants in the audience looked at Murray dumbfounded, as if they never thought that Murray would drop so much from the original price.

For a while, some people were happy and some were worried. Once the copper hot pot from the rune plate workshop flooded into the magic market of the imperial capital, it would destroy all other workshops that processed copper hot pot.

Murray didn't have time to pay attention to the complicated moods of the magic merchants in the audience. He then said to the magic merchants in the audience: "The magic shops in the imperial capital must use this price as the standard. If we have found that someone has adjusted the price indiscriminately, Disturb the order of the magic market, then my workshop will disqualify your magic store as a seller. Next, let’s discuss the ex-factory price of the copper hot pot, and we will give you ten profit margins.”

At this time, a magic merchant stood up and asked Murray a question: "Murray, I'm worried that once the price comes down, it will detonate a sales boom in the imperial capital. Four thousand copper hot pots are far away. Can’t meet the demand of the imperial capital market, I want to know if the production capacity of your workshop’s magic pattern rune board can keep up, will it still be sold in limited quantities like this winter?”

Murray thought about it for a while before saying: "If the demand for copper hot pot in the magic market is greater than our current production capacity, our workshop will consider expanding."

He glanced at the young magic businessman with his eyes, and said: "In addition to the copper hot pot, this time our workshop will also launch a magic item that has been out of production for nearly half a year-exhaust fan, this exhaust fan is made of a metal casing. Assembled, the shape is more beautiful and light. These exhaust fans are still in the process of assembly. If anyone wants to order, you can come to me and pay some advance payment. After a week, these exhaust fans will enter the Magic Market of the Imperial Capital. .”

A magic merchant stood up from the bench and said to Murray, "Murray, you know, we are more concerned about the selling price of these exhaust fans."

Murray rubbed his forehead vigorously, and replied: "The price of the exhaust fan will also be 30.00% lower than that of similar products on the market."

The magic businessman heard the answer, but he didn't sit down, but continued to ask Murray: "Mr. Murray, as we all know, the prices of exhaust fans in the market have become transparent. I would like to know the price of exhaust fans in your workshop. The price is so low, is there any profit for the workshop?"

Murray stood on the stage and replied without hesitation: "Of course, in the days to come, our workshop will not only sell the assembled exhaust fans, but also launch magic pattern-style 'miniature tornado' symbols one after another. In addition to the Glyph Board and the 'Fire Gathering' rune board, there will also be new rune boards and life-like magic items, so stay tuned."

Hearing Murray talking about launching these two most distinctive magic rune boards on the magic market, the reactions of the magic merchants became even stronger. Someone immediately stood up and said to Murray: "Murray, can you reveal How about the price of the upcoming 'Focus Fire' rune plate?"

"The price of each piece will not be higher than fifty silver coins." Murray said.

The entire pricing meeting ended in just one hour, and the magic merchants came out of the meeting room, still discussing in low voices.

Then the magic merchants began to line up in the yard of the Rune Plate Workshop to buy copper hot pots.

Unexpectedly, in just one afternoon, all four thousand copper hot pots were emptied by this group of magic merchants.

Although four thousand copper hot pots were prepared, four magic merchants failed to buy them in the end.

The remaining four magic merchants who did not get the goods refused to leave the rune plate workshop. Murray patted his chest and assured them that the goods would be picked up tomorrow morning. left the workshop.

Murray, who was standing at the door, heaved a long sigh of relief, and wiped the fine sweat from his forehead, as if the last bit of strength had been taken away from his body, he leaned weakly against the door frame, and faced the exhausted man behind him. The unbearable workers said: "Everyone is working hard tonight, and we will put out another thousand copper hot pots, and everyone will call it a day!"
