nChapter 95: Monopoly of the Magical Equipment Market

nTranslator: Daoist6fubtiW

nAfter attending Ancestor Yang’s Purple Mansion Banquet, Chen Daoxuan didn’t choose to return to Twin Lake Island. Instead, he went straight to Spirit Shell Island.

nIn fact, it wasn’t just Chen Daoxuan. Along the way, many cultivators who had attended Ancestor Yang’s Purple Mansion Banquet were sailing in the direction of the Spirit Shell Island.

nBecause the Zhou Clan’s auction was about to begin.

nThis auction would only be held once every few years in Guang ‘an Prefecture.

nMoreover, as the frequency of resource carriers visiting Guang ‘an Prefecture decreased, it would be a few years before an auction of this scale was held again.

nNaturally, no one wanted to miss this event.

nGuang ‘an Prefecture, wandering cultivator market.

nRainbow Sound Flying Sword Shop.

nChen Daoxuan sized up Chen Daichuan, whom he hadn’t seen for more than half a year, and asked in surprise, “”Did you just say that the chief went to the branch in the West Street?”

n“Reporting to young clan leader, yes.”

nChen Daochuan was already thirteen years old. After more than half a year of experience, he had clearly matured. He nodded.

nAfter listening to Chen Daochuan’s narration.

nChen Daoxuan admired Chen Xianhe’s management skills even more.

nThirteenth Uncle actually chose to open a branch in the west street of the wandering cultivator market.

nThis was because the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop under Chen Daoxuan’s feet was located on the east side of the wandering cultivator market, the furthest from the west street.

nThe entire wandering cultivator market.

nNow, only a few magic tool shops on West Street were struggling to survive, unwilling to close their doors.

nThis was something that the Chens, who viewed the magical equipment market as their exclusive property, could not tolerate.

nHence, he decided to do it.

nChen Xianhe chose to open a branch store next to the magic tool stores on the west street to fight against the other party.

nThis time.

nHowever, it disgusted the remaining magic tool shops.

nIf he wanted to play hard, the Mo clan’s extermination was a lesson right in front of him.

nEven if they had the guts, they wouldn’t dare to kill the Chen Clan cultivators halfway.

nSince he couldn’t force it, he could only solve it through normal business channels.

nAs for normal operations.

nHow could these second-hand magic tool shops compete with the Chen family’s magic tool shop?

nNot to mention the difference in quality between these second-hand magic tool shops and the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword shop.

nLet’s talk about the cost of both.

nThese magic tool shops were no match for him at all.

nThe second-hand magic tools in these magic tool shops were all purchased from the disciples of various families through special channels.

nThe price was usually higher than the cost of refining a new magic tool.

nAnd how low was the cost of refining the Chen family’s flying swords?

nThe red shadow flying swords refined by the Chen family used red copper ore, almost all of which came from transactions with the merfolk clan.

nThe Chen family used the merfolk clan’s magical equipment to sell at a high price and Chen Daoxuan’s financial means. In fact, the price of the spirit ores they obtained from the merfolk clan was so low that it made one’s hair stand on end.

nCoupled with the streamlined production of the flying sword factory on Shuanghu Island.

nIt was fine if the other party operated normally, but if they wanted to fight a price war with the Rainbow Sound magic tool shop, they would probably suffer such a loss that they would vomit blood.

nAnd even if they suffered losses to the point of vomiting blood.

nThe Chen family could still earn the spirit stones that they should earn. It was just a matter of how much they earned.

nAs for losses, they didn’t exist.

nShe chatted with Chen Daochuan for a while and asked him about his cultivation progress.

nAfter learning that Chen Daochuan hadn’t slacked off on his cultivation just because he followed Chen Xianhe to run the shop, he nodded in relief.

nIt seemed that even after leaving Shuanghu Island, Chen Daochuan had not forgotten the cultivation habits he had developed in his family.

nThis undoubtedly made Chen Daoxuan very satisfied.

nCultivation was something that required constant perseverance.

nSome people clearly did not have good spiritual roots, and their resources were not as good as other cultivators. However, under the persistence of time and time, they actually went further than cultivators with good spiritual roots.

nThis was the qualitative change brought about by long-term persistence.

nIf a cultivator relied on his superior spiritual roots and cultivated for three days and two days, then even if he was a heavenly spiritual root cultivator, his final achievements would be extremely limited.

nChen Daoxuan had repeatedly emphasized these experiences when he was enlightening Chen Daichuan and the others on the path of cultivation.

nShe encouraged Chen Daochuan.

nAfter finding out the exact location of the branch, Chen Daoxuan took the Cloud Treading Beast Carriage and rushed to the branch in the West Street.

nAfter the time it took for an incense stick to burn.

nChen Daoxuan got out of the car.

nLooking at the store that was even more luxurious than the East Street store, he found it unbelievable.

nAll along.

nChen Xianhe was always cautious and low-key.

nHowever, this time, he changed his style and became high-profile.

nHowever, thinking about it carefully, the more high-profile the Chen family was, the more these small families did not dare to provoke the Chen family.

nSpeaking of which, this could be considered a bluff.

nOf course, it was not entirely a bluff. After all, Zhou Mucheng was the Chen family’s true backer.

nDuring this period of time.

nThe person Chen Xianhe had the closest contact with in the wandering cultivator market was the deacon of the Zhou Clan’s patrol fleet.

nIt was also because of Zhou Mucheng’s intimidation that some of the small families who were ready to make a move did not dare to overstep their boundaries.

nHe walked into the branch.

nChen Xianhe, who was busy with his business, did not notice Chen Daoxuan’s arrival.

nCompared to East Street.

nThe Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword shop on the west street seemed to have better business.

nHe only found out after asking around.

nThe price of the flying swords here was actually five spirit stones cheaper than before. In other words, a Scarlet Shadow Flying Sword could be bought for only 45 spirit stones.

nCompared to the previous price of 50 spirit stones, it had dropped by 10%.

nThis price drop was not a small figure.

nIt was only because the Chen family relied on the industrial production method and the merfolk race’s cheap raw materials that they dared to play like this.

nOtherwise, the cost of refining an ordinary Crimson Shadow Flying Sword alone would have reached 31 spirit stones. If the labor cost, transportation cost, shop expenses, and Guang ‘an Prefecture tax were included, it would definitely be a loss.

nJust as Chen Daoxuan was feeling astonished, a black-robed itinerant cultivator rushed in from outside the shop.

nAs he walked, he kept laughing loudly,” Shopkeeper Chen, good news. The Wang Clan’s magic tool shop has just closed. This is the last magic tool shop in the wandering cultivator market other than our Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword shop.”

nHearing this.

nThe crowd immediately became restless.

n” The last magic tool shop has closed. It seems that the magic tool market in the wandering cultivator market has completely belonged to the Chen family.”

n” Yeah, but it’s no wonder. The Chen family’s flying swords are of high quality and cheap. Who wouldn’t be willing to buy them from them?”

n“I’m just afraid that the Chen family will take the opportunity to raise the price when he’s the only magic tool shop in the future.”

nAfter hearing this question, everyone agreed.

nAlthough there was no concept of monopoly in the Infinite Star Sea, everyone knew that when the Chens were the only ones selling low-level spiritual artifacts in the market, they had the power to set the price.

nOnce this item was in the hands of the Chen family, they could sell it for 45 spirit stones today and raise the price to 65 spirit stones tomorrow.

nAs for the freelance martial artists, other than breaking their teeth and swallowing it, they had no other good ideas.

nAs if hearing the doubts of the crowd, Chen Xianhe quickly comforted them, “”Everyone, please rest assured. Our Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop has already said before that the reason why the flying swords have dropped in price is because the price of the red copper ore has dropped after the arrival of the front-line resource transport ship.

nIn the future, if the price of red copper ores rises back up, we will at most restore it to the original 50 spirit stones. We will definitely not take the opportunity to raise the price!”

nHearing Chen Xianhe’s promise.

nEveryone gradually calmed down..
