Chapter 107 Distribution
Chapter 107 Distribution (First Update)
"Yuzu, next time we go to the main plane, we have to drive quickly to the next destination. Today I noticed that there was something wrong in the eyes of several groups of people." Fang Yu moved 500 gold Dukes from the Dongfeng Tianlong to the trunk of the G, then got back on the truck and drove to Kasuga's factory.
Professor Yorz dodged twice and said, "Master, the warning you asked me to set up was triggered twice today, and the people who came were all ordinary people."
After going to Loirac so many times, Fang Yu used the spell of charm humans to figure out a lot about the situation in this world.
There are quite a few extraordinary people in this world, but their abilities seem difficult to describe.
Level 3 priests like Parson Jacques are already the backbone of the extraordinary people in this world.
Of course, there are higher levels. For example, when a priest reaches level 5, he can be promoted to parish priest. At level 7, he will be called a bishop, and at level 9, he will be promoted to cardinal.
In other words, the strong people in this world can only cast spells of level 5 or below.
And these spells are not their own.
As for the popes of various temples, it is rumored that they are humans who can ask God for power at any time and are called God's agents on earth. How powerful they are is not something that the merchants in the castle town that Fang Yu has been able to contact in the past few days can know.
Although these extraordinary beings are not as powerful as those in the Age of the Great Arcane, it is precisely because of their existence that this world does not seem to be as chaotic as imagined.
The public security is also better than Fang Yu imagined.
After charming five or six different humans and knowing almost everything he needed to know, Fang Yu started to set up a stall and do business.
But money is a powerful thing, and Fang Yu's arms business is a lucrative one, so it is inevitable that some people will be tempted.
When Fang Yu switched for the fourth time, a few local thugs came to cause trouble under the instructions of someone unknown. Fang Yu tied them up with a simple "thorn bondage" and hung them on a big tree next to the van for people to see.
Even so, as Jinduk earned more and more money, although only two days had passed in Luwak after six changes, Fang Yu already felt that he had to run away quickly.
Otherwise, the Knights of Montville might have gone out to rob.
So, after the seventh switch, Fang Yu immediately chose to drive away, leaving even the tent behind.
After running nearly 300 kilometers northwards, Fang Yu stopped when he was about to reach his next destination, Cober, and waited for the switch to end.
In the end, Fang Yu switched back to Blue Star with more than 60,000 gold dukes and more than two tons of white truffles.
Although truffles are now also produced in Dianzhou, white truffles are the most valuable product of the same volume on Blue Star that Fang Yu has been able to find in the more than three days that he has been in this world.
Especially white truffles. There are very few high-quality domestic white truffles now. Once they mature, they turn black inside and are difficult to sell at a high price.
When Fang Yu cut the white truffles here, the inside still had white patterns, which were almost exactly the same as the Alba white truffles or the Istrian white truffles from Croatia that he had eaten before, and the taste might be even stronger.
Most importantly, the truffles here are huge.
The price of white truffles is closely related to their quality and volume. High-quality white truffles weighing more than 500 grams will basically be auctioned. Eight years ago, the gambling king's family spent 33 Malaysian dollars to bid for a 1.5-kilogram white truffle.
In recent years, due to the impact of Yunnan truffles, the prices of Frangi black truffles and Apennine white truffles have declined, but high-quality large white truffles are still hard to come by.
Of course, this does not mean that the white truffles that Fang Yu brought back can be sold at this price.
High-priced rare ingredients are essentially luxury goods, and the price of luxury goods does not entirely depend on their actual quality.
The quality of Alba white truffles and Istrian white truffles is almost the same, but because of their different origins, their prices may differ by 30%.
After Fang Yu quickly froze this batch of white truffles, he still needed some methods to sell them at a good price.
White truffles are not actually meant to be eaten, but to be smelled and used to enhance the flavor of food.
Some people think that white truffles taste a bit like tadpoles.
No wonder many women like to eat it.
Fang Yu didn't like eating these stinky-smelling mushrooms, but he liked money.
There are many families raising pigs in Mercfori, and each family digs dozens of kilograms of truffles to feed their pigs every day. When they heard that someone could exchange copper pills for these stinky potatoes that only pigs eat, they rushed to tell each other and surrounded Fang Yu's camp.
Fang Yu brought back a total of two tons of white truffles this time, all of which were large pieces of white truffles weighing more than 200 grams. More than half of them weighed more than 500 grams each.
Moreover, there are even more than a dozen white truffles weighing more than one kilogram, and the largest one weighs 2.2 kilograms.
However, in the short term, these truffles are basically a one-time deal.
The truffle season in Loire Valley has come to an end this year, and if you want to dig again, you will have to wait at least ten months.
Truffles are difficult to preserve. If they are kept fresh in the refrigerator, they can only be kept for about a week, so they can only be frozen.
After Fang Yu cleaned these truffles using arcane tricks, except for the dozen or so truffles weighing more than one kilogram, all the others were sent to Chunriyou's packaging factory and quickly frozen with liquid nitrogen machines to lock in their freshness.
As for the dozen or so large white truffles, Fang Yu used a first-level spell from the school of transmutation, "Eternal Flavor", to preserve them.
The food or ingredients that are cast will be wrapped in a weak layer of magical energy, which can prevent the food from rotting, spoiling, drying up, or being attacked by common germs and insects. This spell can work on up to 50 kilograms of food.
Food affected by this spell retains its taste, texture, and nutritional value as if it were freshly prepared or harvested. In addition, this spell can stop the natural aging process of food, but it cannot restore food that has already rotted or spoiled. Before Fang Yu drove the truck to the factory, he called Wang Xiaoya and the two agreed to meet at the factory.
Unlike Fang Yu, Wang Xiaoya likes truffles very much. She wants to try them when she sees them, so she makes instant pasta in the factory’s newly built canteen.
"This white truffle is of really good quality. Where did you get so many?" Wang Xiaoya used a slicer to shave off a few slices of white truffle and dropped them on the still steaming pasta, then sniffed it.
"This batch of truffles came from Dianzhou. They are all relatively large. I think, since we are aiming to be a top luxury product, it would be a good opportunity to sell them together with Wangshu Tears." Fang Yu also picked one up with a fork and tasted it, but still couldn't accept the taste.
"Do you want to coordinate the goods?" After all, she was a distinguished Hermès member, so Wang Xiaoya reacted immediately.
"That's right." Fang Yu snapped his fingers. "Since Hermès and Rolex can do it, there's no reason why we can't do it with a killer weapon like Wangshu Tears."
With the development of the economy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, luxury goods have been very popular in recent years. Even the aunties in the street shops may have one or two LV bags.
The popularity of luxury goods has led to the inevitable existence of invisible matching of goods for some of the items that continue to be popular.
For example, for Rolex's Green Submariner, the matching ratio sometimes even reaches 1:4. The most disgusting thing is that the clerk will force you to buy Tudor.
As for the Rainbow Di that will be launched in a few years and sell for 300, haha, it must be matched with goods worth at least 180 million, otherwise you can go to the secondary market and buy a high-priced product worth 1 million. (Note )
Needless to say, Hermès is even more notorious for its product matching. It has to match the three most popular bags: Birkin, Kelly and Constance.
The 1:1 or 1.5:1 matching rate may seem more conscientious than Rolex, but these are things you don’t want to buy at all!
It's not as good as a Rolex. At least if you buy two ladies' date watches, you can pick up girls and give them as gifts.
Pony accessories worth more than three thousand are very popular, but you have to be able to match them.
As a result, I could only match it with a bunch of gloves, scarves, necklaces and other things.
"At the current price of Wangshu Tears, the domestic market for people who can afford it is only 10 billion, and the amount we can get is at most 7 million. Even if we take into account the overseas markets that will be developed in the future, the single product of Wangshu Tears can only support a revenue of 50 billion Dazhou coins at most, and it may not even reach that level."
"As long as the revenue does not exceed 100 billion Great Zhou coins, it is within my acceptable range. Therefore, we can develop several matching products and sell them together by taking advantage of the scarcity of Wangshu Tears."
Fang Yu expressed his thoughts while washing his hands.
"Truffles and skin care products don't go together, right?" Wang Xiaoya hesitated. "If you want to match them together, wouldn't it be better to choose some other cosmetics or bags and jewelry?"
Fang Yu laughed: "You are right, but that is the next step. We are just a new brand now, without any brand accumulation, and the price is completely supported by functionality."
"In this case, although Wangshulei has the attributes of a luxury product, it has not yet completed the brand anchoring of a luxury product."
“The reason why we chose to use truffles at the beginning, and the most expensive white truffles, is because truffles are essentially luxury goods.”
"Using truffles to match products can help the Wangshulei brand better anchor itself in the high-end luxury sector."
"Besides, this batch of truffles is indeed of very good quality. The ones I left behind are priced at around a dozen yuan per kilogram. You can entrust an auction company to hold an auction to heat up the truffles first and prepare for the distribution later."
Wang Xiaoya thought about it carefully and felt that it was quite feasible.
In this way, not only can the brand anchor of Wangshu Lei be strengthened, but this batch of truffles can also be sold at a good price.
Otherwise, with the impact of Dianzhou truffles, these more than two tons of truffles may not be sold out even in a year, let alone get a good price.
Even if it is sold at 3000 per kilogram, these two tons would only be worth six million.
The sales volume of Wangshu Lei is not as high as that in half a month.
But if it is auctioned, it will be different. A few pieces of Alba white truffles can be compared with these white truffles on site for bidders to taste. Then find a few people to bid for them, and sell a single white truffle over one kilogram at a high price of 50 yuan. This will create a topic and a price anchor.
The premise is that the quality of this batch of white truffles is indeed better than Alba.
With the matching of goods, 600 million can easily turn into 3000 million.
As for what to add to the purchase after buying this batch of truffles, Fang Yu has not yet figured it out.
This batch of truffles will be enough for at least three months. By then, my Wangshu Tears will have been exported overseas. Even if I still can't find items worth purchasing and distributing in Loire Valley by then, I can acquire one or two high-quality handmade studios and learn from Hermès to shamelessly sell accessories. These foreigners will have to pay for it anyway.
Learn from the strengths of the barbarians in order to control them. Although our Great Zhou has its own national conditions, we are not slow at all in learning how to make money.
"Baby, some people say that truffles taste like tadpoles. Have you heard of it?" Fang Yu's eyes rolled around on Wang Xiaoya.
"Bah! It doesn't look like that at all!" Wang Xiaoya vomited.
Fang Yu held Wang Xiaoya's head with both hands and pulled it back: "I don't believe it, try it again."
Note: The time for Rainbow Di’s book has not yet been released.
