C59 Auction
Doing business required cost. With Dongfang Qingyu's current funds, he was still short of more than half of the funds needed to do the winery business. He could not do other business that required cost for the time being. He thought for a long time, but he did not expect that he would not need to invest in the business. Actually, the business he wanted to do the most was equipment and medicine. However, the investment of these two businesses was far greater than that of the winery. He couldn't afford it now.
"I'll decide later." Dongfang Qingyu walked out of Shop 8. He didn't know what business he was doing, so he naturally wouldn't foolishly upgrade the shop. The higher the level of the shop, the higher its tax rate.
Dongfang Qingyu had just walked out when he was stopped by a player.
"You are the owner of this shop?" This was a very young man, no older than 23 years old. His equipment was mainly Green-Copper, and he was very handsome. However, his condescending gaze and his unkind smile made people very uncomfortable. Behind this young man were two other players. They had flattering expressions on their faces, so they should be his followers.
"That's right." Initially, Dongfang Qingyu intended to ignore them, but he immediately realized what was going on. This should be the time for the financial situation to turn around. A man with two followers was blocking the entrance of his shop. Their intention was obvious.
Buy a shop!
"I like shop number 8. Name your price." When the young man heard Dongfang Qingyu admit it, he obviously heaved a sigh of relief. He had been waiting here for a few hours, but he hadn't even seen a ghost. If he couldn't see the shop owner, his mission wouldn't be completed. If he couldn't complete the mission, then he would be in big trouble.
"I'm not selling!" Dongfang Qingyu's voice was very soft, but it was firm.
The shops in Sky City were allowed to be sold or sold, and the buyer did not need to pay the fame. Those rich people knew that many shops were bought by Independent Player, but they were not in a hurry. It was because they didn't have the fame, but they had gold coins. According to the rules of the game, all the shops... Independent Player basically chose to sell the shops. It was enough to make a profit.
Independent Player did not have a team, nor did he have any resources. He also lacked funds. It was not easy to take care of a shop by himself. There was also the risk of losing money. Therefore, it was better to sell it to others and earn some money first.
"0.4 billion copper coin." The youth was not surprised when he heard Dongfang Qingyu say that he would not sell it. He immediately shouted the price.
"I'm sorry, I still have something to do." Dongfang Qingyu passed by the young man's side.
"0.5 billion copper coin." The young man remained unmoved.
Dongfang Qingyu did not seem to hear the young man's voice. He passed by his two followers and entered the round square.
"0.8 billion copper coin." The young man heard Dongfang Qingyu's footsteps and his eyes flashed. He turned around and looked at Dongfang Qingyu's back, "Let me introduce myself. I am here on behalf of the Jixiangfu Auction."
Dongfang Qingyu's footsteps paused for a moment, then he continued walking.
The Ji Xiangfu was the biggest auction in the country and had a great reputation. Business spread all over the world. The average daily turnover was said to exceed 100 million RMB. After a year... The net profit exceeded 30 billion, and could be considered a giant in the industry.
"100 million copper coin, if you know what's good for you, then sell the shop to me. Otherwise, we won't let you continue to live in Sky City." The pride on the young man's face faded, replaced by ruthlessness and killing intent.
Dongfang Qingyu turned around and looked at the young man. He said softly, "I'm not selling it!"
"Just you wait and see. I'll teach you a lesson!" The young man shouted loudly. The players passing by saw his murderous look and quickly left.
Dongfang Qingyu had already blended into the crowd and was heading towards the Mercenary Union. When he bought the shop number 8, the price was 1350 gold coins, which was 135 million copper coin. As the number of people increased, the price of the rooms increased rapidly. Now, the price was at least 150 million copper coin. This young man wanted to buy shop number 8 for 100 million, this was not a transaction. This was a robbery. Dongfang Qingyu could naturally tell that this young man's family background wasn't simple. If it was in the real world, Dongfang Qingyu might be afraid of this young man. But this was a game, and Dongfang Qingyu wasn't afraid of him.
In the game, the most direct and effective way to advertise was to make an announcement. However, the price of making an announcement was not something an ordinary player could afford. Secondly, the system would review the content of the advertisement. Some vulgar and sensitive topics could not be published. In order to serve low-end players, an advertisement section was specially set up in the Mercenary Union's mission column. It was used to publish advertisements.
The advertising board of the Mercenary Union was also divided into levels and the simplest ones. It was just like looking for someone to write a few words on the advertisement board. If someone passed by, they might have seen the advertisement. If no one passed by, then no one would have seen the advertisement. This type of advertisement was more passive. Intermediate's advertisement was better. Mercenary Union would send the advertisement to all players with registered mercenary accounts. The publicity immediately increased a lot. The advertisement for advanced would be sent to all the players who had left records in the Mercenary Union, including those who had registered their mercenary accounts and deleted them. The person who issued the mission and the person who was wanted by the mission, etc. All the players had accepted one or two missions. It could be said that the number of players who left contact information in Mercenary Union accounted for at least 60% of the total number of players.
The advertisement was quite strong.
The effects were different, and the price was also different. Low-level advertisements only required 500 copper coin, while advanced advertisements required 100,000 copper coin. Dongfang Qingyu very thriftily chose the 100 000 copper coin Intermediate advertisement.
Shop 8 rented out! With just these six words, he added his contact details.
This was the inspiration the young man gave him. He wasn't willing to sell Shop 8, but he could rent it out. He didn't need to invest to make a profit. Although this method's profits were relatively long-term, it could be used to buy back a sum of money in a short period of time. It was in line with his current situation.
The advertisement was released for less than five minutes before his notification began to ring. He was still in the mood to reply one by one. Very soon, he saw that the number of messages had exceeded 1,000. He directly turned off the messages and ignored them.
Usually, the big meal would be served later. Seeing so many people sending messages, he knew that there was no need to worry about the shop anymore. He would leave those people alone for a period of time.
In Sky City, other than the shop, there was also a residential area. Players could also choose to rent or buy houses. Compared to shops, the price of the residential area was much cheaper. The main point was that they didn't need to spend much fame. One person to buy a house would only need to use 5 fame. Many players chose to buy a house as a place to rest or work.
Especially for some big forces, having an independent office was a must.
"Director Cheng, we just received a level 22 Pet Egg. It can be the finale." The assistant who knocked on the door was very happy. In auctions, the finale was usually the most valuable item. This did not only refer to the price, but also the influence, uniqueness, and use of the item. It would take at least half a year for players to reach level 20 from level 10. In other words, if players had a level 22 pet, it meant that they would be ahead of the others by at least half a year. Regardless of whether it was in terms of independence, value, or use, this Pet Egg was very suitable. The finale of the previous selection was a Silver Ware medium grade long spear. It was also very valuable. However, compared to the Pet Egg, it was much weaker.
The change in equipment was faster than the update of the Pet Egg.
"What's the quantity?" Cheng Jinyi sat behind the desk with a calm expression. After he graduated from college, he went overseas to study for two years. After he returned, he started working in his family business. Since he was a young employee, he walked step by step until he became the current vice president. Although it was largely because of his identity that he was able to walk so quickly, and completed the transition from an employee to a leader in three years, however, this was also inseparable from his own efforts.
The 29-year-old Cheng Jinyi had been in charge of Ji Xiangfu for more than two years. The Ji Xiangfu's performance had increased by more than 9% for two years in a row. 7%, compared to the country's 5.1% growth rate and the Ji Xiangfu's average 6.9% growth rate before. This speed erased all doubts. Since last year, his father had not left the company anymore. The Ji Xiangfu was under Cheng Jinyi's full control.
Since Cheng Jinyi was in a high position, he would naturally develop a noble aura. Cheng Jinyi had matured a long time ago. He had a maturity that did not match his age. Basically, there were very few things that could make his expression change. It was because of this calmness that he was able to make the company's long board members submit to him. Those directors were people who had worked with his grandfather in the past. Each and every one of them relied on their seniority to not even put his father in their eyes. Because of this, the new employees of the company were all very impressed by Cheng Jinyi. Among these people, including his assistant who had followed him for two years.
"86 pieces. It's enough to start an auction. There are 21 hours left until the date you set. It won't be a problem to gather 100 pieces of items. There is a high chance that an item that is even more valuable than the Pet Egg will appear and become the finale of the auction. "
"One Pet Egg is still not enough. If a second finale item appears, then it will be even safer." Cheng Jinyi nodded his head, "We can't relax about the matter of the items, but we must also make the best use of our time to choose the shop. Otherwise, when the auction is set, there will be no place for it to be held. This will become a joke. "
" Director Cheng. " The assistant hesitated for a moment and said," Secretary Lin has handed the business of the shop to Young Master Lin. "
"Who asked him to do that?" Cheng Jinyi's expression changed and a powerful aura immediately spread out.
The assistant carefully looked outside the door and did not say anything.
"Go and call Secretary Lin over." Cheng Jinyi said lightly. The assistant went out and returned very quickly. Behind him was a beautiful woman who was dressed up beautifully.
"Director Cheng, you're looking for me?" Secretary Lin's etiquette was not a problem, but from some minute details, it could be seen that her tone was not as respectful as her assistant's.
"You have handed the business of the store to your brother?" Cheng Jinyi stared at Secretary Lin with a sharp gaze.
"My brother has nothing to do recently. I want him to take the salary from the company. I have to do something, so I let him go." Secretary Lin's eyes flickered and she said seriously, "But you can rest assured that he will definitely complete the task."
"You also believe his promise?" Cheng Jinyi was expressionless.
"I think he has changed. I believe he has learned his lesson after what happened last time. He will work hard this time." Secretary Lin whispered.
The assistant suddenly said, "Director Cheng, I just received news that Shop No. 8 has released a rental advertisement."
"Ah!" Secretary Lin's face suddenly turned pale.
