Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 387 Shopping malls are like battlefields

The third day was an exceptionally clear day, the sky generously sprinkled down from the blue sky, covering Lin Sanjiu's shoulders.After pushing the door of the Big Cat Hotel, the owner of a pancake shop next door immediately stuck out his head and greeted her enthusiastically: "... are you going out?"

"Yes," she nodded with a smile, looking very amiable under the imitation of Mike Duck: "How is business today?"

"It's really good! The pancake shops on the other roads can't do it. Without eggs, they can't sell at all." The owner of the pancake shop happily tapped the shovel in his hand, "I heard that eggs are out of stock in the market recently. It’s also unbelievably high, I was a little worried at first, but I didn’t expect that you are so powerful that you can make me a batch of eggs in advance so quickly... This time is really thanks to you.”

Lin Sanjiu smiled, put his hands in the pockets of his bathrobe, and walked towards the Yunlai Exchange.

The owner of the pancake shop just now found her yesterday and told her that there were no eggs in his shop, and the business was not going well—although he was oblique, but the meaning was quite clear: it seemed that he was afraid that Lin Sanjiu would not be able to deliver the eggs.Upon hearing this, Lin Sanjiu didn't say a word, and immediately gave him all the 50 catties of goods he had originally ordered, and said, "This is a special order for you in advance", which made the owner of the pancake shop very grateful Fan.

The eggs were given ahead of time, certainly not because she wanted to help.

The purpose of hoarding all the eggs on the market is not to let everyone have no eggs to eat, but to let a few people have eggs to eat, artificially turning it into a scarce resource-only in this way can the price go up; if If there is no egg at all, then there will definitely be egg substitutes.So just like the 50 catties of eggs sold yesterday, these 50 catties are also to stimulate the market better.

If this is a real market, McDuck's method may not be effective at all; but the market simulated by Starry Sky Amusement Park is a relatively closed environment, which not only greatly simplifies the complexity, but also has a very high Authenticity, the trick was tailor-made for this.

When Lin Sanjiu walked to the Yunlai Exchange, the door had already been opened by Xiaoer early; he was almost knocked down by her rushing into the store for two consecutive days. Obviously, he also learned his lesson and opened 5 minutes earlier. He opened the door: "Hey, the guest officer is still so punctual! I have good news for you, the price of eggs has risen again! The batch of pastries you told me to collect yesterday have also been bought, and I'm waiting for you to trade your stamina."

The fact that the egg price has risen again, of course, has long been expected by Lin Sanjiu—smiling, she glanced over the bulletin board, and saw that the current market average price of eggs has climbed to 2.8 stamina /catty.

...The market has just opened, and she still has one day to bring the price of eggs to the price she agreed with the three producers.

Turning her head, she asked Xiaoer, "What's the price of that batch of pastries yesterday?"

"There are 120 pieces in total, 20 points per piece on average," Xiaoer said with a warm smile, "Including the handling fee, the total is 2472 points of stamina."

"And what about the eggs?"

"Hey, you just asked. I don't know why, when the market opened today, the eggs released by the three manufacturers suddenly increased several times compared to yesterday-it was a full 1150 catties! When the buying operation was carried out, the price was still 2.6, so your batch of eggs has a total of 3080 physical points."

Even though he spent so much at once, when Lin Sanjiu sat in his old seat, he tapped the armrest of the chair lightly with his fingers, and a smile slowly appeared on his face.

… Just like the plan she had agreed with the three egg producers yesterday, they successfully terminated the contracts with all four large restaurants; out of the 1150 catties of eggs today, it is obvious that [-] catties of them should have been supplied to those companies restaurant.

The step of terminating the contract was thought of by Lin Sanjiu in the state of "Mike Duck" after inquiring a few important news from the manufacturer.

In such a relatively closed market environment, as she analyzed, the competition among the three egg producers is indeed very fierce-the market is only so big, there are only a few large target customers, and there are many manufacturers; plus Small merchants basically cannot digest their production surplus, and it has always been a buyer's market—that is, the original average price of eggs was 0.6, but after fierce price wars, the three producers coincidentally touched reserve price.

It is said that before Lin Sanjiu intervened, the three manufacturers had been worrying about reducing inventory and raising prices, so when she sent a message, she quickly got the answer she wanted.

The contract signed between the producer and the restaurant is an "exclusive supply contract". It stands to reason that the restaurant cannot purchase on its own outside of the supplier—in order to achieve this exclusive supply condition, the producer even had to sell eggs The price is lower than the market price.It's just that in a buyer's market, such a contract is not very binding; even if the restaurant finds someone else to purchase the goods, no manufacturer has ever been willing to terminate the contract.

...unless the manufacturers join forces under the impetus of external forces.

And Lin Sanjiu did exactly that.

The deal proposed by Kurosawaji at this time is a bait to lure them to take it, in order to let the restaurants buy eggs from him and break the contract first-but if it is just like this, it is not very sure: It is very possible that a smart person would not eat these eggs because of the situation in the market.

In order to ensure that none of these restaurants can be caught, Lin Sanjiu came up with a second method.

Under her instructions, the three manufacturers came to an "exchange" - each manufacturer sent a message to the restaurants that were not their customers, saying that the price of eggs has risen sharply, and even if they have a contract, they cannot guarantee their original price. Egg suppliers do not raise prices; however, they are different, and are still willing to continue to provide products with lower than market prices, hoping to win over the other party as a customer.

With the second supplier as a backup, these large stores really relaxed their vigilance, took the bait thrown by Kurosawa Ji one after another, and produced a batch of pastries with almost no cost for raw materials.When Kurosawaji said that he could not buy so many, it was getting late at this time and it was about to close. In order to sell this batch of pastries as soon as possible, the prices of these restaurants were correspondingly lower than before A few points of physical strength.

As soon as Lin Sanjiu's eyes fell on this batch of pastries, she gave an order to the waiter in the shop to "buy before the market closes".

There are four restaurants in total. The reason why she only sold them two hundred catties through Hei Zeji is because the small number is not easy to cause alarm; Sure enough, when each family only got a few dozen catties of eggs, they only made 120 pastries, which she could afford.

Now, Lin Sanjiu has a total of 2977 points of physical strength, 3300 catties of eggs, and 600 pieces of pastries.

"What should we do next?" Teacher Yi couldn't help asking.

"Don't worry, the market is just opening now," Lin Sanjiu narrowed her eyes, smiling like a fox—if she didn't have the ability of [Consciousness Mimicry], I'm afraid she wouldn't be able to make such an expression in her life Lai: "...Give those restaurants some time. It will take a while for them to realize that there is no supply today."

Things went even better than Lin Sanjiu expected, and after 10 minutes, the first information about buying eggs from one of the four restaurants appeared on the bulletin board.

This piece of information immediately caused the entire market to explode.

The average market price of eggs is constantly flickering, and after each flicker, the number will increase a little bit, and finally reach an astonishing 5; however, no matter how firmly the price rises, the market inventory always shows "extremely low".

In order to add another spoonful of oil to the fire, Lin Sanjiu immediately released the news of "6 stamina points to buy eggs" - and then, her private mailbox was suddenly bombarded with messages like snowflakes one after another - the shop clerk was busy I was sweating profusely, and before a message was called out, three or four more messages came in; some expressed amazement at No. 57, some condemned it, and there were even more, planning to buy some eggs from her.

Lin Sanjiu didn't reply even a single one, but told me "except for the news of the four major restaurants, don't show me the rest", and then began to wait patiently.

Finally, half an hour later, the other three restaurants also gave in.

The first person to send her a message was "Lips" who had dated several times.

"I know you don't plan to stay here for a long time, so I will let you succeed this time," the tone of this message is very strong, "...don't you just want to make a fortune and leave? Here is the egg in your hand Make an offer!"

Lin Sanjiu smiled, but didn't reply.

The news about the other two dessert shops is more polite.

"I don't know how to call you, but let me open the door. Our daily output is very large, and the main material is eggs, so I hope you can think about it and talk about this at a price that we can all accept." Business."

The Lips restaurant uses the fewest eggs, so it’s no wonder they are the toughest——Lin Sanjiu thought about it, and picked out one of the dessert shops called "Mint Leaf" at random, and responded with a non-essential question: "Do you like Strawberry Red Lips?" What do you think of the cake?"

The other party was obviously a little confused, but still quickly replied: "...This is Lips' signature dessert. Even if others get the recipe, they can't make it. It can be said that it is famous."

That's good.

Lin Sanjiu, who was in the Mike Duck mode, already had another idea in his mind.

"You have also seen that there is no store in the market that has eggs... Not only you, but no one can make anything that contains eggs."

"Yes, you mean..."

"I can provide you with 20 pieces of strawberry red lip cake, and 200 other dishes. The red lip cake is 30 stamina each, and the other desserts are 28 stamina each; in order to show my sincerity, I promise you the next four I won't sell eggs within hours. When I sell eggs, I guarantee the market price will reach 8 stamina per catty, how about it?"

Selling when all competitors are out of stock is already a great advantage - what's more, even if competitors have bought eggs, due to their dessert costs, the price will be far from being comparable to their own ;In almost 10 minutes, Lin Sanjiu sold 220 pieces of desserts to "Mint Leaf", and the other party borne the handling fee, and returned 6200 stamina points, with a total of 9177 stamina points in hand.

Judging from the daily sales simulated by the Starry Sky Amusement Park, this can only meet half of the requirements of the dessert market—however, after Lin Sanjiu teamed up with three egg producers to release a news, the impact was turbulent. .

"Player No. 57 is currently discussing the possibility of cooperation with the egg producer. It plans to acquire three producers in the market and merge them into one. The progress is going smoothly, and it is said that the contract has been signed."

This news seemed to be a spark that fell on gasoline, coupled with the various incentives she set up before, it finally detonated the crazy market - everyone is guessing what price No. 57 will set after the monopoly; And because of her aggressive style in the past few days, the market is generally bullish on the future egg price, so the current egg price has soared all the way to 7.5, which has never been so high.

And the little leftover eggs that were deliberately placed in supermarkets and pancake shops before could not resist the temptation to flow into the market, and in turn continued to blow the bubble even bigger.

Seeing that the timing was almost up, Lin Sanjiu waved his hand lightly: "It's fat enough, it's time to slaughter."

... This time, even Lips finally put down his airs.

Due to a change in the middle, Lin Sanjiu had too much stock in hand at this time, so she set a minimum purchase amount; the minimum purchase amount reported to Lips and other big restaurants was 400 catties, 8 stamina points per catty ——Except for Mint Leaf, the three large restaurants had no choice but to place orders one after another, no matter how reluctant they were.Perhaps because he was worried that the price of eggs would rise even more outrageously in the future, the three restaurants ordered a total of 1600 catties. Lin Sanjiu quickly returned 12800 points of stamina, and finally earned back the payment.

"I have to act faster," Lin Sanjiu murmured to himself, "Once those egg producers find out that I have set a minimum purchase quantity, they will know that I am cheating them.... All the eggs laid are sold."

For small merchants, she can neither sell too much nor sell too expensive; at a price of 6 stamina per catty, she finally sold another 700 catties of eggs—it turns out that everyone thought that eggs would rise in the future, so Bought larger quantities than usual.

At present, Lin Sanjiu's physical strength has reached 26177 points - the physical strength of clearing the customs has been earned, and she still has 380 dessert dishes and a thousand catties of eggs left.

The price of eggs on the back foot suddenly dropped from 7.5 to 4 after almost the end of the transaction. This kind of fluctuation shows that the three egg producers finally realized that something was wrong: No. 57 was sold at a high price at one time, which exceeded the market's digestion. Eggs with high capacity, then when these batches of eggs are digested, their own egg production will pile up again-it will still be a buyer's market, but this time, they have lost their big customers.

"It's dangerous, it's dangerous, next," Lin Sanjiu smiled, exhaled, and asked Xiao Er to delete hundreds of messages: "I will slowly sell these batches at a price far below the market price. Dessert and eggs."

Teacher Yi was already dumbfounded.

"That old duck..." she murmured, "actually fooled everyone in this market."

"Let me tell you," Lin Sanjiu laughed as if he had heard some praise, "I usually don't dare to do this in business, but now I can shoot and leave with one shot. Fun!"

With enough physical strength, the next step is simple.

Using the money to buy all the goods that should be bought, and adding 150 catties of eggs, Lin Sanjiu finally paid off the debts of the merchants on the Pumpkin Road and avoided the fate of being punished by the Starry Sky Amusement Park.And after she almost completely disrupted the market by dumping low prices, 320 desserts and 850 catties of eggs brought her a total of 2815 stamina——

Wearing a newly purchased combat vest and shorts, Lin Sanjiu sat on the pumpkin road basking in the sun.

When her eyes fell on those figures who appeared in the distance at an unknown time, she jumped up with a smile: "Let's go! I will finish this level for you!"
