Chapter 91: Chapter 91: The Whole Family Becomes Rich!
That’s right, it’s indeed the grocery delivery boss standing, and Qian Qi sitting.
When a person stands for a long time, they easily get tired, anxious, and ready to compromise, thus agreeing to the other party’s conditions.
At the entrance of the orphanage, Qian Qi crossed her legs and sat on a small stool, with her sharp tongue fiercely bargaining, pushing the price down again and again until it reached her satisfactory level.
The time she spent in supermarkets wasn’t in vain; she was well-aware of the prices of these fruits and raw meats, so she could see when the grocery delivery boss sneakily raised the prices.
"Boss, don’t give me the bottom-of-the-barrel goods because I haggled the price down," Qian Qi poked her fingers at her eyes and then at the delivery boss’s eyes, "My eyes are sharp!"
"Got it, got it, I never deliver rotten vegetables," said the delivery boss, wiping his face helplessly. He had to admit, this little sibling was a fierce bargainer, and he couldn’t out-haggle them.
However, he still tried to justify, "It’s just that I’m busy delivering in the afternoon and can’t waste time, otherwise I could have haggled with you for longer."
Talking about this, Qian Qi couldn’t help but scratch her chin and curiously asked, "Isn’t there also a fixed schedule for delivering to the war zone? Why do you sound like it was a sudden thing?"
"More or less," the delivery boss looked around and whispered to Qian Qi, "Actually, it’s not about delivering to the Awakened Warriors of the war zone, but to the businesses nearby."
"What do you mean?" Qian Qi scratched her head, not understanding.
"Oh!" The delivery boss, seeing Qian Qi being so clueless, slapped his thigh in frustration, "isn’t this common knowledge? You don’t know this?"
"The instance at that war zone was conquered yesterday! Now the property prices are skyrocketing, many Awakeners are lining up to buy houses, and some have stationed themselves there preparing to grind the new instance!"
"With more people, there’s a need to eat, isn’t there? That’s why I need to deliver groceries!" The delivery boss spread his hands.
"Wow!" Qian Qi’s eyes lit up like two little light bulbs, "After an instance is conquered, the surrounding property prices will rise?"
"Of course! Conquering an instance means the area is safe, and with a surge in Awakeners, opportunities for business pop up everywhere!"
"However, instance conquests are reported in real-time, and landlords raise prices immediately upon receiving the news, so it’s hard to snag a deal..." The delivery boss wanted to smoke but then reconsidered, "Before an instance is conquered, properties nearby are dirt cheap, no one dares to live there, but once conquered, well, it becomes insanely expensive, and those landlords get rich overnight."
"Sigh, if only I could predict which instance would be conquered with 100% certainty..." The delivery boss was filled with dreamy yearning.
Qian Qi listened in by the side, her small hands trembling slightly with excitement she couldn’t calm down.
What is this?!
What is this?!?
Isn’t this similar to getting rich like in my past life through relocation deals?!
In the past life, one person’s relocation deal could make the whole family rich, but in this life, it’s one person conquers an instance and the whole neighborhood gets rich?
If she could conquer those E-level dungeons and buy up nearby properties in advance...
Wouldn’t that be...?
[What are you thinking?]The system mercilessly shattered her fantasy: [Do you think current E-level dungeons are truly E-level dungeons?]
Qian Qi’s face instantly fell.
Oh right, nowadays many E-level dungeons have D-level or C-level Demon Beasts inside, one careless move and you could die.
However, surely the system knows which E-level dungeon is purely E-level!
Just as Qian Qi was rubbing her hands in anticipation, the system smiled and said: [Two million per hint＾＿＾]
Qian Qi: ...
Black-hearted system! Knowing full well she only has two million left!
Ha, tui~!
Due to her empty pockets, Qian Qi decided to postpone real estate dealings for now and first go conduct a market survey at the newly conquered instance to maximize profits when flipping properties in the future.
Meanwhile, she planned to earn some money by selling magic potions... After all, buying houses requires money!
"Ah, life is tough."
Heaven’s chosen child Qian Qi, equipped with a Golden Finger and even expecting a three billion payment, couldn’t help but sigh deeply at the hardship of life.
...
The next day, Qian Qi packed her bags and went to the newly conquered instance in Lins City.
By then, the area was already packed with people, with Awakeners coming in and out of the instance, and nearby shops bustling with business, calls to customers echoing continuously, creating a lively scene.
"Wow, it’s my first time seeing such a scene."
Qian Qi couldn’t help but exclaim; she usually stayed at school and even when she went out a few times she hadn’t seen an instance. Rumor had it that the instances in the city were being controlled, with special buildings set up to house them, requiring Awakeners to queue to enter.
But this... was a wild instance, its dark entrance standing openly in the middle of the square, with Awakeners jostling to get in first.
"Not bad, I’m quite satisfied with the crowd here."
Qian Qi nodded in satisfaction, she scouted the area for a while and found that all the good spots for stalls near the instance had been taken, leaving only inconspicuous corners at the edges.
"No good spots..."
Qian Qi akimboed and was not too pleased, glancing at the vendors selling weapons and barbecue at the outskirts, she turned and headed toward the inner circle.
"Today I’ll teach you a little trick to make more money; when doing business, you can’t hold onto your dignity, opportunities are for those who are shameless, like me..."
Qian Qi squeezed her way to the instance entrance, using her slim frame to push past Awakeners, finally reaching it.
She cleared her throat and started her sales pitch, "Come and take a look! One second Hemostatic Medicine, long-lasting Defense Fruit, all fresh goods!"
"Come on, uncle, make some room for me!" Qian Qi boldly pushed aside nearby jostling Awakeners, carving out a free space for herself.
Those Awakeners who were pushed aside turned to look at her in astonishment, filled with disbelief.
Who the heck is this enthusiastic seller, setting up a stall right at the instance entrance?
After creating an "ideal" stall spot out of nothing, Qian Qi untied a small stool from her waist, laid out a piece of rag on the ground, and displayed the Blood Stopping Magic Potion on it.
With her impromptu stall ready, she cleared her throat and began shouting:
"Oh~ my dear Awakeners! Come over and take a look!"
"Stop bleeding in a second, grab a bag of magic potion! Opportunities don’t come every day, seize them when you can!"
"One second Hemostatic Medicine, cures arterial bleeding, heals severed limbs, as miraculous as can be, just 998, take it home now!"
Though Qian Qi’s pitch couldn’t outmatch the clamor of the crowd, she was right at the instance entrance, and she spoke directly into people’s ears, making it hard not to hear!
"Hey buddy, buy a pack? If you get bitten by a Magic Beast and bleed heavily, sprinkle a bit for instant lifesaving blood stoppage!"
Qian Qi seized a hesitant man by the instance, aggressively pitching her product, and that, is what you call precisely capturing your target customer base!
