Chapter 224: Advising Jiao Xiuyuan

Chapter 223 – Offering Advice to Jiao Xiuyuan

“How many honors?” Li Fan’s detached gaze flickered.

“Hehe, it’s hard to believe that you, Dao Friend, have emptied out the entire ruins of the Pill King Sect?”

Jiao Xiuyuan said cheerfully, “That’s not true, it’s just that I was lucky and happened to dig up the remains of the workshop. Although the vast majority of them are abandoned and unusable remnants, but I also picked up a full twenty-eight intact small tripods.”

“Twenty-eight honors?” Li Fan was slightly shocked in his heart, not realizing that the number of this Small Pill King Tripods, was actually so many?
This quantity was greatly out of his expectation.

Recalling the scene in his twelfth life when he was chased because of the two Small Pill King Tripods in his storage ring, Li Fan fell into deep thought.

That YuanYing cultivator had directly locked onto his location. It was obviously through some method that he was able to sense the existence of the Small Pill King Tripods.

It could be some sort of secret method, or it could be because he was also carrying the Small Pill King Ding.

The reason why they were fighting over the Small Pill King’s Cauldron was obviously because of the return of the true Pill King’s Cauldron.

“The chances in the Pill King’s Cauldron must have nothing to do with these small cauldrons that also belong to the Pill King Sect.”

“I was being chased and killed at the time, I’m afraid that it was just a scene in the tragic scramble drama.”

“However, in this life for me, the more the better the number of these Small Pill King Tripods!”

Thoughts turned sharply, Li Fan had finalized his plan in a split second.

Only then did he follow up on Jiao Xiuyuan’s words and replied, “Hehe, Fellow Daoist Jiao’s luck is really good.”

“But I don’t need so many small tripods ah, two are enough for regular planting. Two more for backup, that’s more than enough!”

Jiao Xiuyuan hurriedly said, “Fellow Daoist is wrong, I’ve appraised this Small Pill King Tripod. It’s worthy of being an ancient sect artifact, and it’s very effective. The effect of cultivating spiritual plants is far from what these crude magic artifacts of today can compare to. Not to mention that they already have a long history with ……”

Li Fan smiled and interrupted Jiao Xiuyuan’s words, “Hehe, I’ve shared a difficult time with you, Taoist. The bright people don’t speak in the dark, you, Taoist friend, are worried that the price of herbs is too low nowadays, and it’s difficult to sell these small Pill King Tripods, so that’s why you strongly persuaded me to buy more, right?”

Jiao Xiuyuan didn’t expect Li Fan to be so direct and snorted to hide his embarrassment.

When he was about to speak to explain, he heard Li Fan add, “Fellow Daoist, don’t worry, since I asked you to look for this Small Pill King Tripod, I will naturally not let you lose money.”

“In my opinion, it is not difficult to sell these small tripods at a hundred, or even a thousand times the price!”

The tone was arrogant, yet very certain.

Jiao Xiuyuan couldn’t help but have curiosity at his words, “I wish to hear your high opinion.”

Li Fan smiled faintly, “Fellow Daoist must know that the price of a commodity, in fact, has little to do with its own value.”

“How much a commodity can ultimately be sold for only depends on how much the person who buys it, is willing to pay.”

“Take these Small Pill King Tripods for example. If it is simply a magic artifact used to cultivate spirit plants, then no matter how much you, Dao Friend, brag and exaggerate its benefits, the price of more than a thousand contribution points has already come to an end.”

“Does fellow Daoist think so?”

Jiao Xiuyuan slowly nodded, “Not bad. More than a thousand contribution points is still an overestimation by fellow Daoist. With the collective collapse of the herb market, it would be considered lucky to be able to sell five or six hundred contribution points a pop.”

“So, if you want to sell the Small Pill King Tripods at a high price, you have to tap into the other values on them ……,” Li Fan said slowly in a ghostly tone.

“Other values?” Jiao Xiuyuan froze, “These small tripods don’t have any other uses ah?”

“Hehe, there is no value, then create value for them.” Li Fan threw his voice. “Do you know the past incident when Liu Ruchen of the Pill King Sect used a tripod as a boat and led all the Pill King Sect personnel to break through the air?” Li Fan asked.

Jiao Xiu Yuan nodded farther, “I naturally know about this matter ……”

He then reacted with a very surprised tone, “What do you mean, fellow Daoist ……”

Li Fan smiled, “If the Pill King’s True Cauldron has been wandering in the outside world for thousands of years, it is about to return to the Xuan Huang Realm. Only those who are carrying the Small Pill King Tripod will be able to enter it ……”

“What do you think, Fellow Daoist, about the price of this Small Pill King Tripod?”

Jiao Xiuyuan thought for a moment, and his tone suddenly became a bit excited, “If it’s true, it involves the secrets of the ancient sects before the Great Calamity came.”

“The price of the Small Pill King Tripod, it’s really hard to estimate. With an opening price of 100,000 contribution degrees a piece, I’m sure there are a large number of cultivators willing to buy it.”

Li Fan immediately said, “That’s it!”

Jiao Xiuyuan thought about it and then felt that something was wrong, “Isn’t this a rip-off? This is not in line with my business path ah?!”

“Moreover, these cultivators are all shrewd and ruthless. It’s also impossible that they believe whatever I say?”

Li Fan laughed softly and said slowly, “It depends on how fellow Daoist operates. As the saying goes, three people make a tiger, and when a lie is repeated thousands of times, there will be people who will take it as truth.”

“At that time, we will then use heavy money to bribe a few Diffusion Powers to release the news.”

“It’s not up to others to disbelieve it.”

“As for lying to people, huh ……,” Li Fan suddenly laughed coldly.

“The so-called buying and selling, isn’t it that you buy me and you sell me, you love me. Furthermore, this Pill King’s True Cauldron will return, it’s not necessarily fake news!”

“The Pill King’s True Cauldron that flew away in the past did have a slight probability that it would return to the Xuan Huang Realm. Even if this probability is infinitely close to zero, as long as it’s not zero, then on an infinite time scale, this matter will definitely happen.”

“As for how many small amount of robberies later that would be, will the Xuan Huang Realm still be there at that time ……”

“That would be another matter.”

Li Fan’s words caused Jiao Xiuyuan’s heart and mind to shake dramatically.

The thoughts and values in the words were very different from the [Way of Doing Business] that he had always believed in.

Heavenly Father as proof, he Jiao Xiuyuan business, although occasionally greedy a little cheap. But it has never been so loud and bright to carry out false propaganda.

Thousand Miles Hall, has always been based on honesty.

But Jiao Xiuyuan heart and vaguely feel, Li Fan these words, said extremely reasonable.

Over the years, the business scale of Thousand Miles Hall had long been limited and reached a bottleneck. His [Thousand Puppet Dao] was also slow to break through.

“To cite one, this tactic can be used not only on the Small Pill King’s Cauldron. All commodities in the world can be operated in this way. When the time comes ……” Jiao Xiuyuan thought about it a little, and was so excited that it was as if his soul was going to tremble.

He heard Li Fan speak again at great length, “In order to maintain the heat of the Small Pill King Tripod, you can even hold an auction every once in a while. Use the auction to sell a few of these small tripods.”

“Not only can we maximize our profits, but we can also advertise the business of the Thousand Mile Hall, it’s a one-two punch.”
