Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 48
Hongyafang City.

In the early morning of this day, the crisp sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded from the southeast of Fangshi.

After hearing that voice, all the experienced monks in Fangshi knew that this was the opening of a new store.

Generally speaking, only the opening of new stores in Fangshi is allowed to make such disturbances.

Otherwise, shops or individuals who make such a big noise in Fang City will have to pay a large fine or even go to jail.

As for the opening of a new store, it is reasonable to say that in order to attract popularity, the prices of things will be slightly cheaper a few days or a month ago.

So no matter whether it was watching the excitement or being greedy for cheap, many monks who were idle in the square city rushed towards the newly opened shop.

Spirit beast fast!
This is the name of the newly opened store today.

You can tell from the name that the business of this shop must be related to monsters.

At this time, outside the store door, the newly appointed shopkeeper Zhou Jiasheng was smiling and saying welcome words towards Sifang.

"Welcome all fellow Taoists to visit our store. The old man Zhou Jiasheng has won the trust of his family and is the shopkeeper of this store. Today, our store is newly opened, and all goods are sold at a [-]% discount. Don't miss it, all fellow Taoists!"

Zhou Jiasheng is sixty-two this year, his head is already graying, and there are fine wrinkles on his forehead, he doesn't look young anymore.

I saw that he had a mustache on his mouth, and he often had a smile on his face, and he was born with the appearance of a shopkeeper.

The reason why Zhou Daoyi chose him to be the shopkeeper was also because he did have relevant experience before, and he has a high level of identification of various common spiritual objects, so it is not easy to receive fake products by mistake.

The reason for choosing Zhou Chun as a buddy is that Zhou Chun must be rewarded for his recent achievements.

Secondly, I also know that Zhou Chun likes to read and study, and his theoretical knowledge has already surpassed his peers by a lot. If he can practice and study with Zhou Jiasheng in the shop for a few years, and turn theoretical knowledge into real knowledge, it will be of great use in the future. up.

At this time, many monks who came to watch the fun were moved when they heard Zhou Jiasheng say that today's goods are all [-]% off.

When someone walked into the shop, he asked loudly, "Shopkeeper Zhou, what kind of treasures do you have in your shop? Looking at the name of the shop, could it be that they sell spiritual pet mounts?"

"Fellow Daoist, you are right. Our Spirit Beast House does have spirit beast eggs for sale, and we will release some domesticated monster beast cubs for sale every once in a while."

Zhou Jiasheng nodded with a smile, confirming the matter.

Then he changed the subject and continued: "But the things we mainly sell are pills to improve the cultivation of spirit beasts, secret animal repellent medicines, secret insect repellent medicines, secret spirit animal rations, etc. Customize a breakthrough method for the spiritual pet stuck in front of the bottleneck, and no money will be charged if it fails!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his hand again, and then said: "Of course, this shop will also buy all kinds of monster eggs, monster cubs, various elixir ores, and even buy news about some monsters at a fair price." !"

After hearing what he said, many monks present immediately knew that today's bargain might not be easy to take advantage of.

Not everyone can afford this spiritual pet. Even among the monks of the cultivating family, it is difficult for two out of ten to be able to afford a spiritual pet.

Since the Zhou family's "Spiritual Beast House" is the main product for spiritual pets, what's the use of them buying it?

But now that they have come, and thinking that there are secret veterinary repellents, insect repellents and other things for sale that can be used outside the house, these monks still walked into the shop with an eye-opening mind.

Inside the store, Zhou Chun, who was wearing a blue-gray gown, was greeting each monk entering the store with a smile on his face, and providing answers to some monks who asked.

But in fact, under his suggestion, notes were posted next to the counters in the store, which clearly marked the general effect and price of the relevant goods.

Originally, the custom of opening a shop in this world is to wait and see the dishes, that is, the price of all goods is only kept in mind by the shopkeeper and the clerk. When a customer asks, they can sell at a high price and not sell at a low price, and they also give customers room for bargaining. .

However, Zhou Chun knew very well that there were advantages and disadvantages to doing so, and it would not be of much benefit to newly opened shops like "Lingshou Zhai" that needed word of mouth and reputation.

Therefore, before he actually opened the business, he successfully persuaded the patriarch Zhou Daoyi to choose to put a price on all the goods and sell the goods at the marked price without any counter-price.

This is actually opening a supermarket in the world of cultivating immortals.

Zhou Chun doesn't know if there are other shops in this world that have done this.

But at least he has never seen Hongyafang City.

In this case, even if it was not easy for the monks to accept the practice of "Spiritual Beast House" at first, it would at least impress the monks who have been here and remember this shop.

This was Zhou Chun's most practical reason for persuading Zhou Daoyi.

And the supermarket model has another advantage, that is, it reduces the customer inquiry process, which can make Zhou Chun, a guy like this, less repetitive words that are meaningless.

After all, if the price is not marked, many monks will try to inquire and bargain first, regardless of whether they can afford it or not.

At this time, many monks who entered the shop were indeed amazed by the strange sales method of "Spiritual Beast House", and some people kept expressing their opinions.

Some people think it's outrageous not to be able to bargain, while others think that as long as the price is really fair, it will save them a lot of talking.

In short, there are many people who see it, but few people buy it.

After all, the spiritual coins in anyone's hands are not blown by the strong wind, and they are not something that can be used immediately. Most monks will not easily sell them.

On the contrary, what interested these monks the most was the purchase of monster eggs and monster information by "Spiritual Beast Zhai".

Many people are asking about the purchase price, and some people are asking themselves if they know the information about a certain kind of monster, can they sell it to "Spirit Beast Zhai".

They even just want to earn spirit coins from "Spiritual Beast House"!

Fortunately, Zhou Chun was also prepared for this.

For the monks who inquired about monster eggs and monster cubs, he always gave a general reference price for a low-level monster or a mid-level monster, saying that the specific price would depend on its own quality.

Those who asked about the acquisition of monsters, Zhou Chun directly pointed to a white cardboard in the shop, on which were written several information about the monsters acquired by the monks of the Zhou family.

The first of them is the announcement by Zhou Jiapeng about the acquisition of female Iron Feather Eagles.

That's right, most of the news about monsters purchased by the Zhou family is to find monsters that can be bred.

The world of cultivating immortals is so big, and the footprints of cultivators are all over the place. Of course, it is much more convenient to find news of some monsters with the help of cultivators than by yourself.

And just providing a piece of information can earn a lot of spirit coins, which also made many monks who came to the store today have another deep impression on the "Spiritual Beast House".

Amidst the busy schedule, the first day is finally over.

In the dead of night, when most of the monks in Fangshi had already fallen asleep and rested, Zhou Chun was still accompanying Zhou Jiasheng to check the operating income and expenditure of the store today.

"Today, a total of three low-level monster firefinch eggs, one low-level monster Gale Eagle egg, three bottles of [Beast Spirit Pill], 56 secret-made animal repellent medicines, 32 secret-made insect repellent medicines, and secret-made spirit beasts were sold. 78 rations...a total of 750 six spiritual coins."

"In addition, today I bought a hundred-year-old red candle fruit plant, a piece of lightning strike spirit tree, and two low-level monster red blood snake eggs... a total of 430 nine spirit coins were spent."

In the store, after Zhou Jiasheng and Zhou Chun took stock of today's operating income and expenses, they both looked a little unhappy.

On the first day of opening, it is the time when the passenger flow is the largest, and it is normal for a day to last a month.

This kind of income did not exceed a thousand spiritual coins, which is really ugly.

But there is nothing to say about the item of expenditure, it is all reasonable expenditure.

"Nephew Zhengchun, tell me what you think of today's income."

Behind the counter, Zhou Jiasheng closed the account book and looked at Zhou Chun with a calm expression.

Although there was no intention of blaming in his words, Zhou Chun knew that his insistence on clearly marking the price before did make this elder quite unhappy.

This is actually quite normal.

The longer a person has been in a certain industry and the older he is, the easier it is for him to be limited by experience and self-righteous.

In the eyes of Zhou Jiasheng, no matter how much contribution Zhou Chun has made to the family and how smart he is, he is just a young junior who is only over 25 years old and has no experience in running a store.

Such a junior followed him to learn how to run a store, he would not have any opinions, and was even willing to have more people to help.

But such a junior stepped in to change the store's business model when he first arrived, making him lose his authority as a shopkeeper.

How could he not be angry.

If we say that Zhou Chun's clearly marked price makes today's operating income very good.

Even if Zhou Jiasheng felt uncomfortable, he would not have any opinion on it.

However, the operating income on the first day failed to meet expectations, and was even much lower than expected.

This made Zhou Jiasheng unable to hold back the anger in his heart.

The calmer his face is now, the more it shows that the anger in his heart is getting hotter and hotter, and he needs to suppress it forcibly.

But since he asked aloud, Zhou Chun still had to say what he should say.

Immediately, he cupped his hands at him, and said seriously: "Uncle Sixteen Mingjian, my nephew thinks that although today's income is somewhat below expectations, it does not mean that we have failed!"

"Uncle Sixteen, you have seen and heard it today. Even if the customers who came to our store did not buy or sell goods, they still had a heated discussion about our behavior of clearly marking prices. I believe that if you go out and walk around tomorrow, you will be able to hear it." discussion on the matter."

"Through word of mouth, even monks who are not in Fangshi today will hear about the reputation of our Spirit Beast House when they arrive in Fangshi, and come here curious to verify the authenticity."

"In this way, I believe that in the next month, our Spirit Beast Zhai will be full of people, so we don't have to worry about the source of customers."

"And as long as there are more customers, some of them will always need the goods in our store. It's normal to buy some goods along the way."

"So my nephew thinks that just looking at one day's income can't explain anything."

However, after he finished his righteous words, what he saw was a sneer on Zhou Jiasheng's face that could not be concealed.

　I'm in a hurry! I'm in a hurry!If there are no accidents, the last chapter of Tomorrow Desert should be updated!
