Chapter 469: 299 Chapters Small Knife Opens Shop_2
This often requires at least several hundred years.
The chances of producing a genius are too slim.
Zhao Wushuang visited an old acquaintance.
After all, the price cut lasted only one day, leaving many people dissatisfied and reaching out.
The owner here was one of the more esteemed and flexible individuals, being at the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, and the entire clan was close to purchasing Spirit Village.
Of course, the reason Small Knife remembers him is because he bought Spirit Awakening Pills, which were one Spirit Stone cheaper, and he purchased as many as two hundred and eighty pills.
He also bought some talismans and the like.
Clearly, he had already guessed that such a price cut wouldn’t last long.
Small Knife’s visit surprised him a lot.
"Bringing warmth, no, bringing VIP."
As a major buyer, Small Knife gave him a VIP card, so future purchases would accrue points that could be exchanged for Spirit Stones and other goods.
Of course, confidentiality was a must, signing a contract.
Moreover, he could introduce friends, and based on their consumption, he’d receive some points as rewards.
Calculating, it still came to a 1% discount.
The discount wasn’t much, but it was a joy for this family head.
Moreover, when enough points were accumulated, they could be exchanged for cultivation techniques at a surprising 10% discount!
This already delighted the family head, and seeing cultivation techniques at 10% off, he could hardly believe it.
So he had some probing intentions.
Small Knife asked and then understood.
Techniques must not be passed on lightly.
Rumor has it, the four Celestial Beings mastered the Heavenly Dao, modified its rules, and established the Celestial Law.
Techniques must not be passed on lightly.
Except for the only free Qi Cultivation Formulas that could be cultivated to the Qi Cultivation Third Layer, other cultivation techniques could only be duplicated once reaching Great Perfection and taught to one person.
And the comprehension of Great Perfection would decrease to the level of Perfection, with this portion of insight being absorbed by the world and becoming its foundation.
Thus, the price of cultivation techniques was extremely high, with even the lowest-level cultivation technique of Qi Cultivation Great Perfection costing tens of thousands of Spirit Stones.
There’s no way around it.
Could it be as cheap as nine thousand? He was skeptical.
Seeing his disbelief, Small Knife directly produced a Cultivation Technique Jade Slip.
He intended to copy it, but found it impossible?
Copying a new one destroyed the old one.
Clearly, it was suppressed by World Power and its rules.
This involved the Master of the World’s authority; Small Knife was familiar with it.
Did the Celestial Beings indeed hold some of the Master of the World’s rights?
Of course, these were taken from Personal Space, prepared in abundance, and were commonplace, yielding the highest profits.
Then, on Small Knife’s side, as he was diligently cultivating in the Spirit Pool within the Purple Mansion, he opened his eyes and directly sought his Daoist Soldiers.
These early Daoist Soldiers had long settled here, and gathering information was not a problem.
Inquiring about the old place, the hometown’s situation, was also no secret.
Very soon, news arrived.
Regarding the cultivation techniques, it’s true that techniques must not be passed on lightly.
However, it didn’t affect them, as the price of the Five Elements Sword Control Sect’s techniques had always been this way.
They couldn’t be passed on externally.
And the Five Elements Sword Control Sect was no longer a second-tier sect, having ventured beyond the world, they possessed corresponding rights.
They could duplicate a batch of techniques outside the world without cost and bring them into it, naturally resulting in a profitable trade.
This was the Four Heavens World’s benefit for a first-class world, though it also came with restrictions on the number and specifications of duplicated techniques.
Specifically, ordinary disciples might not know, but it’s speculated to be hundreds of billions.
The news reached Small Knife, who understood.
Thus, it’s not too exaggerated to sell techniques, skimming some profits without being noticed.
Small Knife crafted a points exchange form and left a copy for this family head.
Believe it or not, reality proves it.
Even if points were used to exchange for Spirit Stones, they still profited.
Thus, Small Knife went to other families, those who bought early or in bulk, the cultivation clans.
Issuing them VIP cards, followed by initiating confidentiality contracts.
Believing in the benefits, they would quickly develop their friends.
All required confidentiality contracts, which was strict, leaving no worries of leaks.
These initial VIP families also became places for private transactions.
In fact, it was even easier than anticipated.
In just over ten days, over thirty thousand Spirit Awakening Pills were sold, along with numerous talismans, Spirit Pills, and others.
Even techniques, seven books were sold.
Total sales exceeded seven million Spirit Stones.
This, despite some concerns over quality.
But word-of-mouth assurance convinced them.
Many VIP customers recommended to relatives and friends.
Some even extended to other towns.
Seeing this, Small Knife immediately established new rules, considered rewards, to develop VIP customers in other towns or even cities, with additional rewards based on scale and purchasing power.
At this moment, Small Knife visited a family in this town.
This family was not insignificant, having a hundred-acre estate within the town, where just the annual rent paid to Liu Feng Town reached over a hundred Spirit Stones.
The family had two Foundation Establishment powerhouses.
Among the techniques Small Knife sold, two were purchased by this family.
10% off, were the techniques actually real?
They had never profited from such a large discount, saving a full two thousand Spirit Stones, finding it incredible and seeing a great business opportunity.
To show sincerity, Small Knife was invited into the core area of the family estate.
There, in the Spirit Field, a Second Realm Spirit Fruit Tree was surprisingly planted.
With the Spirit Fruit ripe, they invited Small Knife to taste it.
Seven Spirit Fruit.
Blooms every thirty years, fruits every thirty years, matures every thirty years.
Every nine years, seventy-seven to forty-nine Seven Spirit Fruits could be obtained.
Each worth two thousand Spirit Stones, maturing in ninety years, nearly a million in profit.
This was the foundation of their family.
Not only was there array protection, but also a Foundation Establishment powerhouse constantly guarding.
This family not only owned the estate but also over ten villages, making a significant force.
However, they always remained low-key, never planning to build a town.
A thousand years ago, when Liu Feng Town was strong enough to establish a town, they only rented the estate here, investing town-building resources into this Seven Spirit Fruit Tree, which has only reached the Second Realm in the past century.
With this Spirit Fruit Tree, they had their family foundation without fulfilling the obligations of a town’s overlord.
Thus, they could safely farm.
With the Seven Spirit Fruit ripe, they simultaneously treated Small Knife and inquired about whether Little Knife Commerce Association would purchase Seven Spirit Fruit.
And this time, the revenue from selling the Seven Spirit Fruit was naturally planned for stocking at Little Knife Commerce Association.
Small Knife tasted the Seven Spirit Fruit. Goodness, it was equivalent to a year’s hard cultivation in a Spiritual Qi-rich environment.
But that was just one effect; the other six were equally impressive.
Over two thousand Spirit Stones, not bad.
Of course, he immediately agreed to purchase all the Seven Spirit Fruits.
This greatly pleased the family head.
Small Knife didn’t need to pay; he let them convert it into the goods they needed.
However, what interested Small Knife was this Spirit Fruit Tree.
Upon inquiry, such a tree was worth tens of millions, roughly the same cost as establishing a small town.
The other party indicated that if Small Knife needed, they could help make the connection.
A First Realm Seven Spirit Fruit Tree was about five million, and mature Seven Spirit Fruit wasn’t even worth a hundred Spirit Stones, even if it matured faster.
Still, the returns weren’t high.
Cultivating to the Second Realm was no easy task, taking approximately a thousand years.
However, a Second Realm Seven Spirit Fruit Tree cost only ten million? The price only doubled, equating to two First Realm Seven Spirit Fruit Trees, yet the yield varied significantly.
Small Knife already had a guess, and upon inquiry, this was indeed the case.
Due to world rules, even with a Second Realm Seven Spirit Fruit Tree, they couldn’t grow it from a seed.
Spirit Fruit Trees and the like had prices too exorbitant, typically only available in cities for purchase.
Other towns and the like could only place orders.
Of course, only First Realm ones could be purchased, with Second Realm or higher having prices but no stock.
Small Knife bought all the Seven Spirit Fruits and then placed them into Personal Space.
Indeed, within Personal Space, Seven Spirit Fruit seeds could be planted.
The Four Celestial Great World, the upper layers truly exploit.
Nonetheless, they also offered hope to the lower layers.
Small Knife admired this immensely.
It made him feel the world’s depths were too profound.
Small Knife ensured his expansions and similar endeavors were controlled within certain boundaries, steadily and safely progressing.
A month later, Small Knife produced three cultivated Seven Spirit Fruit Tree saplings and exchanged them for the family’s Second Realm tree, cultivated for nearly a thousand years and yielding a batch every century, each valued at a million Spirit Stones.
What is this called, a stroke of genius?
