Chapter 113 – Open three large stores in a row With Leng Feiyan's involvement, the negotiations went incredibly smoothly. Elder Tianqing and Elder Tianque both agreed readily. From now on, any surplus elixirs and weapons would be handed over to Lin Jichen for sale, with profits split fifty-fifty after deducting costs. This commission rate was already very generous. For a bottle of elixir worth ten Spirit Stones, after deducting costs, Lin Jichen would get three Spirit Stones. Lin Jichen had originally thought he'd be satisfied with a twenty percent cut, but he never expected to get fifty percent. Even if he didn't hire an Alchemy Master and just acted as a distributor, he could still make a fortune. On the way back, Lin Jichen smiled like a husband whose wife had just allowed him to visit a high-class brothel—he was that happy. He knew that this generous split was entirely due to Leng Feiyan's influence; otherwise, getting even twenty percent would have been a blessing, and he might not have even secured the distribution rights. The sect didn't lack distributors like Lin Jichen; Tianyan Sword Sect's elixirs and weapons sold extremely well. Why would they give such a high commission to a mere disciple unless the Sect Master was backing him and the two Elders had to give face? Thinking of this, Lin Jichen looked at Leng Feiyan beside him and found her even more charming. Leng Feiyan, however, seemed uninterested and a bit tired. She said, "It's getting late. I'll head back first. Disciple, make sure you finish everything early, understood?" "Yes, Master. I'll work overtime to get it done." "Good." Satisfied, Leng Feiyan gracefully flew away. Lin Jichen wasted no time and hurried down the mountain, returning to Fengqu City. Without delay, he decided to open a new store immediately! He first went to the Third Prince's two-story shop. The first floor would be an equipment store, named Friendly Equipment Store. The second floor would be an auction house, named Honest Auction House. Simple and clear, with obvious meanings. He praised himself for being a naming genius. After finalizing the store layout, Lin Jichen started hiring staff, recruiting twenty beautiful young ladies in one go. It wasn't for his personal desires, of course. This was called beauty marketing, effective anywhere. Ten employees for each floor, managing the two stores for him. Next, Lin Jichen took out the large pile of equipment Jiang Luoyu had given him. After all these preparations, Lin Jichen had spent almost all his Spirit Stones, including those he had just taken from Shenbao Pharmacy. Lin Jichen was like a bottomless pit; his spending could support two or three large guilds. But the initial investment was worth it. Once the sect's elixirs and equipment arrived tomorrow, his three large stores could officially open. Before that, Lin Jichen advertised in the global chat channel. Advertising in this channel wasn't cheap, costing a thousand Spirit Stones per message, with no discounts even during holidays. Moreover, the price increased every month. Currently, few guilds were willing to spend this money, as it was just a chat channel, not a global game announcement. Unless you opened the chat channel, you wouldn't see the ads. So even guild leaders rarely spent a thousand Spirit Stones to say a word there. At most, they used it once to recruit members. But Lin Jichen was different. He spent twenty thousand Spirit Stones in one go, buying 20 global megaphones, and scheduled them to post every hour. He even made it anonymous. [Anonymous Player: I am operating three large stores in the center of Fengqu City—Harmony Pharmacy, Friendly Equipment Store, and Honest Auction House. They will officially open tomorrow. Three days later, the auction house will hold its first global auction, featuring a Mysterious Grade weapon as the finale. All Tale of Immortal players are invited to attend!] Shortly after this message was posted, many players who liked to browse the chat channel saw it. It caused a huge stir! Other global megaphones were just recruiting for guilds. This was the first store advertisement. And unbelievably, it was for three stores! Since the Commoner's Pharmacy became well-known, many guild leaders and wealthy players wanted to invest in stores. But they had money without reputation, so they couldn't buy stores in the city. They could only watch enviously and try to gather reputation. But now, someone had opened three stores. How was this possible? Damn! And they were city stores. Impossible! Many players didn't believe it and went to the center of Fengqu City to check. Sure enough, they found three modern-named stores that hadn't opened yet. Each store had a sign: [Grand Opening Tomorrow at Noon, All Items 10% Off!] With such store names and common promotional tactics, it was definitely player-operated.
