magicChapter 149 : Competitor (1)
“Are you playing dumb with me? Master Tang, the martial world has its own methods and the business circle has its own rules.
There’s a limit to how much a mid – grade sword is worth.
You see, you’re selling it so cheaply, can’t you just let my Xuan Bao Pavilion live?” Fan Dong Feng sneered.
“I have the freedom to buy and sell.
I’ve always made small profits but quick sales.
Besides, you see, I’m only selling mid – grade swords, which is only a small part of your Xuan Bao Pavilion.
The other products of sumei supermarket don’t seem to have much interaction with you.
Even if you don’t do the business of mid – grade swords, you won’t lose money.
” Tang Wen said.
“What a joke! If there’s money, everyone will earn it.
If there’s clothing, everyone will wear it.
Master Tang, if you continue like this, perhaps the sumei supermarket will disappear at some point.
” Van Nistelrooy said with a long face.
“Who wants to destroy sumei supermarket? You’ll have to ask me, tu qianqiu, if I’m willing?” At this moment, tu qianqiu came in from behind, holding a pig trotter with soy sauce.
“Senior tu, we’re not talking about you.” Fan Dongfeng quickly cupped his fists and said.
“You’re not talking about me, you’re talking about me.
I live in cloud clothing square, and you want to destroy the supermarket.
What do you want to do?” Tu qianqiu snorted.
“Senior, my Xuan Bao Pavilion is not the only one doing business in Xuanwu city.
If you break the rules of the underworld, I’m afraid no one can stop everyone when they come.
” Fan Dong Feng sneered.
“Just call them over.
If they dare to act recklessly, I’ll poison your house tomorrow.
I’d like to see who can cure my poison.
” Tu qianqiu flicked his sleeve and sneered.
“Senior ...
You’re making things difficult for me,” Fan Dong Feng’s face suddenly became quite ugly.
“Senior, are you going to stay in sumei supermarket forever?” Van Nistelrooy snorted.
“Fan Shaodong, it’s a win – win situation when doing business.
Tang’s sumei supermarket is in the middle – grade sword business.
In fact, I’m also preparing to buy a few hundred high – grade swords from Xuan Bao Pavilion.
If you put it that way, I’ll have to think about it.
” Tang Wen said.
“You already have a sword, so why would you need to buy it from us? Tang Wen, even a three – year – old kid wouldn’t believe you.
You’re treating us like fools, so don’t go too far!” Van Nistelrooy suddenly stared at Tang Wen with a murderous look.
“Hehe, whoever wants to cause trouble at sumei supermarket, I, Redbeard, can play with you.” At this moment, Redbeard walked in with a smile on his face.
“Senior, we’re only here to take a look.
However, there were rules in the underworld.
You can’t disobey the rules.
” Fan Dongfeng quickly cupped his fists and said.
After all, this red beard was a martial artist in the element gathering tier, and it was not good to offend him.
“What rules? you can make money, but others can ‘t, right? You want to monopolize the mid – grade sword business, so this is the rule you set.
When someone else sold it, you said that you didn’t follow the rules.
What kind of logic is that?” Redbeard sneered.
“We can do whatever we want.
It’s just 30% cheaper, we’ll go back and sell it at half price.
I’d like to see who can withstand it.
Tang Wen, you’ve lit the fire, so just wait to suffer the wrath of the business circle of my Xuanwu city.
” Van Nistelrooy’s face was overbearing.
” 50% is 50%.
You guys get 50% and I get 30%.” Tang Wen sneered.
Do you think I’m afraid of you? The mid – grade sword was custom – made in Yunhai city for 150000 Yuan, which was 15 taels of gold.
One spiritual stone was worth ten taels of gold, and the cost of one and a half spiritual stones was a 10% discount.
“Let’s wait and see!” Van Nistelrooy flicked his sleeves and was about to leave.
“By the way, Master Tang, didn’t you say you wanted to buy a few hundred high grade swords from our Xuan Bao Pavilion? If it’s true, then we’re friends, so there’s no need to fall out.
” Fan Dongfeng was more open – minded than fan ni and was able to keep his composure.
“Fine.
If he wants to buy 500 swords from us, we’ll let you have the mid – grade sword business and we’ll sell less,” Van Nistelrooy said.
After all, the profit of an upper grade sword was higher, while a middle grade sword was only worth seven or eight lower spiritual stones.
The 500 high – grade swords had already earned back the money they had spent on the mid – grade swords.
In business, there were no eternal friends, only eternal interests.
“Deal!” Tang Wen nodded.
After all, Xuan Bao Pavilion’s aura was too strong, and it was not convenient for him to have a conflict with them.
By then, if these guys were to do anything, sumei supermarket would be finished.
Tang Wen still wanted to make money, so he naturally didn’t want to fight to the death.
He could only pinch his nose and accept it.
“Our upper grade swords are not cheap.
I’ll give you the best upper grade sword, fifty lower grade spirit stones each.” Fan Dongfeng said.
“An ordinary upper grade sword costs about ten spirit stones each, and a sword that costs fifty spirit stones is close to an excellent grade sword, which is also the peak price of an upper grade sword.
I don’t care about your business, but you must give Tang kid the real deal.
Otherwise, I, tu qianqiu, won’t agree to it.
” Tu qianqiu said.
“Don’t worry, senior.
It’s definitely a top – notch upper grade sword.
” Fan Dongfeng said.
“Sure.” Tang Wen endured it and admitted it.
25,000 low – grade spiritual stones, he could afford it.
He had to give a portion of the profits to the Xuan Bao Pavilion.
Otherwise, this business would not be able to continue.
“What a bully! 50 for one upper grade sword! This is cannibalism!” Van Nistelrooy and the others left with the spiritual stones in satisfaction.
Wu Zi was so angry that he almost exploded.
“If you’re a bully, then they’ll bully you.
What can you do? If it wasn’t for the two of us, your sumei supermarket would have been smashed.
Kid, business is not good.
If you want to do business, you have to have the strength.
Otherwise, we won’t be able to protect you all the time.
” Redbeard said.
“Thank you, seniors.
I will work hard.” Tang Wen nodded.
“The Xuan treasure Pavilion is just the beginning.
In the future, there will probably be a second Zhang treasure Pavilion, and the Li family’s shop will come to find trouble with you.
So, kid, hurry up and strengthen yourself.
Otherwise, your supermarket will be destroyed soon.
I might even lose my life.
” Tu qianqiu also said.
“But it’s useless even if I jump to my death.
I can’t jump up in one go.” Tang Wen said.
“First of all, you have to improve your strength.
Second, you have to hire more people with money, especially experts who can hold the fort.
We’re not suitable for each other, because we’ll be leaving in a few days.
” Tu qianqiu said.
“Don’t tell me it’s not open anymore?” Wu Zi’s face darkened.
“I’ll help you one last time, Tang kid.
Brother tu, I’m sure you have something good.
” Redbeard said.
“Why do you keep staring at me?” Tu qianqiu said in an unpleasant tone.
“Hehe, it’s said that you have a high grade ‘blended Qi pill’.” Redbeard said.
“Of course, do you want it?” Tu qianqiu snorted.
“I heard from Tang Wen that Zhuge Ziliang once used a fusion spell formation to guide dozens of internal energy into that Tang brat’s body.
It would probably take a sixty – year – cycle of cultivation, but it would be difficult for him to absorb this cultivation at once.
If he had the blended Qi elixir, then it would be fine.
With the two of us guiding him, he should be able to step into the advanced stage of the fourth stage.
” Redbeard said.
“Blended Qi pills, especially high grade ones, are rare in this world.
In this world, there are very few alchemy Masters who can refine it, and I only got it with three bottles of muscle revitalization pills.
Do you know how much three bottles of muscle revitalization pills cost?” Tu qianqiu said.
“That must be very expensive.” Redbeard said.
“Very expensive, it’s too expensive.
It’s frighteningly expensive.
A bottle of my muscle revitalization pills costs 100 upper – grade spirit stones.” Tu qianqiu said.
“Then wouldn’t the blended Qi pellet cost three hundred top rank spirit stones?” Redbeard was also shocked.
“What do you think?” Tu qianqiu snorted.
“Forget it, I didn’t say anything.
I was rude.” Redbeard cupped his fists.
After all, it was unrealistic to ask Tang Wen to give him the blended Qi pill that was worth 300 high – grade spirit stones.
“Can I use spirit stones to exchange with you?” Tang Wen asked.
After all, he had recently earned more than 1000 high – grade spirit stones and spent 300 of them to reach the late stage of the fourth stage.
