Chapter 38 A plan to make money
Chapter 38 A plan to make money
Flanders sounded very sad when he said this, his Shrek Academy had been established for decades, but it couldn't even compare to others who had only been established for a few years, and it was not even worthy of carrying shoes for others, which was really discouraging.
But there was nothing they could do, because they were rich! Even Titled Douluo were scrambling to become a branch dean at the Sun Moon Academy, which showed how rich the Sun Moon Chamber of Commerce was.
After hearing Flanders' explanation, Leng Xiyao didn't know what to say.
She always felt that there was a huge conspiracy here. Based on her understanding of the Sun-Moon Empire, it was a group of invaders led by the royal family. As soon as the two continents collided, a world war broke out. It can be seen that the Sun-Moon Chamber of Commerce is by no means a good thing.
But what can she do? Her power is still too weak now. She needs more money and more resources to create more insect swarms.
Thinking about making money, looking at Flanders beside her and the pile of garbage on his stall, she suddenly had a bold idea.
"Dean, do you want to make money?" Leng Xiyao approached Flanders and said slyly.
"Oh?" Flanders immediately became excited when he heard about making money: "What do you think, Miss?"
After what happened yesterday, it was hard for Flanders to treat her as an ordinary student. After all, she was a ruthless person who even refused Tang Hao's request to be his disciple. What qualifications did he have to educate her?
As for Leng Xiyao's words, Flanders also took them very seriously, completely forgetting that she was only a twelve-year-old child.
Leng Xiyao did not respond directly to Flanders' words. She just picked up a worthless statue ornament from the stall and passed a trace of spiritual energy into it.
In Douluo Continent, it is extremely difficult to release the soul power in the body, so soul guides came into being because they can help soul masters easily release their soul power. They are extremely practical whether as a tool or as a weapon.
However, Leng Xiyao does not need to worry about these things at all, because her spiritual energy can be released at will, unlike soul power which has a lot of usage restrictions.
When learning to fly with a sword yesterday, Leng Xiyao realized that her spiritual energy could not only be used to attack people, but also to strengthen certain objects!
There is a huge difference between items enhanced by psychic energy and soul guides, because powerful soul guides are too complicated to use, and soul masters who have not undergone systematic training cannot operate them at all. Only civilian soul guides can be used without learning.
And items made with psychic energy can be used even by ordinary people!
Just like the statue in front of him, Leng Xiyao didn't know what to transform something like this into, so she just made it into something similar to a grenade.
"This is..." Feeling the energy fluctuations, Flanders could no longer sit still. He stood up, took the modified statue, and examined it over and over again.
After playing with it for a while, Flanders couldn't help but smack his lips and said, "Tsk tsk, this small statue actually contains energy fluctuations that can kill a great soul master in seconds. How did they do that?"
As he spoke, Flanders looked at Leng Xiyao with longing.
He had collected this broken statue, so he knew very well that it was only worth about two copper coins. However, after Leng Xiyao fiddled with it, it turned out that the value contained in it was no less than fifty gold soul coins!
"It doesn't matter how you did it. What matters is do you think this thing can make money?" Leng Xiyao looked at Flanders with a smile. It was simple to say. This statue was a product of the simplest application of psychic energy, that is, it simply stored psychic energy and released it at the critical moment to fight the enemy.
If she wants to make money, she can use more complex techniques, such as making an item look old, making it look more like an "antique" and selling it for a high price.
"You can make money, but it's hard work." Flanders didn't know this, and just looked at Leng Xiyao with difficulty. It was true that the value of this statue had increased hundreds of times, but it was only worth dozens of gold coins after all. If Leng Xiyao didn't want to teach the manufacturing method, then there was no way to make a lot of money.
Leng Xiyao picked up another vase and tried to modify it using the same method as before, making the vase look old and more refined.
This time it was not as easy as before, but became a more delicate job. Therefore, it took her five minutes to finish the vase.
Flanders on the side was stunned. The value of this broken bottle was slightly less than the statue just now. How come it has now become an antique that even he couldn't tell the authenticity of?
It was the first time for Leng Xiyao to control the flow of spiritual energy so delicately. Although it was only five minutes, beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
After casually wiping it with her sleeve, Leng Xiyao continued to ask, "Can this make money?"
"You can make money. You can make a lot of money." As an extremely professional treasure appraiser, Flanders could naturally tell that this broken bottle was now worth more than three thousand gold coins. Even a level 78 Soul Saint like himself couldn't tell the authenticity, so as long as he sold it to someone with lower strength than himself, there was no reason why he couldn't sell it!
Nowadays, the world is stable and there is no war. People with some assets like to make something like this to show off their status and don’t have to worry about sales at all!
Leng Xiyao picked up the statue again and asked, "So, can we make money with this and this?"
Flanders lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then he suddenly realized that the functions of these two things might not be so important. What was important was that one was crudely made and the other was finely polished.
One is high-profit and difficult to manufacture, while the other is low-profit and inexpensive. If they are mixed together and sold as a bundle, wouldn’t it be possible to make a lot of money?
"Gao Ming, the young lady is really smart. After chatting for a few minutes, I really feel like I have been living a dog's life for the past few decades." After figuring out the connection, Flanders immediately turned into a dog and praised Leng Xiyao heavily.
In fact, Leng Xiyao didn't know how to sell this thing at a high price, but she thought that Flanders must know, so she discussed it with him.
But looking at him, it is obvious that he has found a way.
"Hehehe, I'm glad you understand. I'll make you a batch these days. You sell them first, and we'll split the profit in half." Thinking that it had not been easy for Flanders over the years, Leng Xiyao suggested.
"Why should I take 50%? 19, 1 for me and 9 for you, no more!" Flanders said righteously. Although he was greedy for money, he was never vague on key issues. In this business with zero investment and huge profits, he was just an errand boy. He felt that 10% was a bit too much.
Leng Xiyao said she wanted to make a lot of money, so each sale would probably be at least tens of thousands of gold soul coins. He could earn a few thousand just by running errands and contacting people to sell goods, which was like picking up money for free.
After all, there are so many chambers of commerce that can help sell goods, and they are very efficient. Why would they choose you, an amateur, to cooperate with?
Leng Xiyao was quite helpless. She wanted to sponsor Shrek Academy in this way, but Flanders was a very principled person.
A gentleman loves money but gets it in a proper way, that's probably what it means.
