I Cultivate Immortality With Scientific Thinking

Chapter 92: Hierarchical Requirements

The Lin Yue Tower is located by the Ying Yue Lake, built against the lake, with seven floors and a height of over nine zhang. Its structure is ingeniously designed, and from the top floor, one can take in the beautiful scenery of the entire Ying Yue Lake, which is refreshing and delightful.

At this moment, in a private room on the upper floor, Lin Chen sat upright, facing Xu Mengyun and Liu Qiqiang who were sitting next to each other.

"Who is this..." Xu Mengyun's beautiful eyes turned and fell on the somewhat restrained Liu Qiqiang.

"A good disciple. I find him quite pleasing, so I decided to support him." Lin Chen poured a cup of spiritual tea, took a sip, and smiled.

"Since he is recognized by Junior Brother, he must have some skills. I will arrange a task for him." Xu Mengyun hinted.

Lin Chen nodded with a light smile, glanced at Liu Qiqiang, and the latter immediately understood, quickly expressing his gratitude, "Thank you, Senior Sister, for your guidance!"

"Don't thank me so quickly. Whether you can handle it or not depends on your abilities." Xu Mengyun nodded, then looked at Lin Chen with a hint of resentment, "By the way, you really need to learn from Senior Brother Lin. Not only did you deceive people, but you also deceived my money."

"Senior Sister, what are you talking about?! Junior Sister and I have been through thick and thin together, we are sworn brothers and sisters. How can there be any talk of deception?!" Lin Chen was shocked to hear this and quickly said with righteousness.

"Enough, don't act in front of me. There are no outsiders here!" Xu Mengyun's face turned black.

Liu Qiqiang, who was on the side, shrank in the corner, not daring to make a sound, trying to lower his presence.

After all, when the big shots were joking around, they didn't want their subordinates to take it seriously.

"Alright, I won't argue with you anymore. The platform you proposed sounds good, but there have been quite a few problems in its execution." Xu Mengyun said straightforwardly, "What kind of problems? Piracy?" Lin Chen leaned back in his chair calmly and asked.

"I have already dealt with those who were involved in piracy, so that's not the problem." Xu Mengyun responded calmly.

Although her tone was calm, everyone present knew what "dealing with" meant in this world.

Although the sect prohibits attacking and harming each other, if any disciple encounters an accident, it will be thoroughly investigated.

But the sect is so big, this rule can only be implemented on true disciples and outstanding disciples of the inner and outer sects. It is normal for accidents to happen to lower-level disciples.

"Oh? What other problems are there?" Lin Chen raised an eyebrow and asked.

"The number of books sold did not reach the expected effect." Xu Mengyun's voice became somewhat low.

"Why? Were you suppressed by your peers?"

"That's not the main issue. The main problem is that the number of paying customers is far below expectations."

"Hmm?" Lin Chen's eyes flickered, "Show me your account book for this period."

"Here." Xu Mengyun seemed prepared and took out an account book from her storage bag, handing it over.

Lin Chen flipped through a few pages and found that the records on it were quite comprehensive.

Using "收" (income), "付" (expenses), "存" (assets), and "该" (capital and liabilities) as accounting symbols, the economic transactions were divided into "进" (income), "缴" (expenses), "存" (assets), and "该" (capital and liabilities).

It can be seen at a glance.

Lin Chen carefully looked through it, pondered for a while, and then asked, "Did you take out all these books to sell? Are they not categorized?"

"Categorized? What kind of categories?" Xu Mengyao asked in confusion.

"Different customers have different needs for books. We can't generalize," Lin Chen put down the account book and said lightly.

"If we divide the consuming cultivators into four levels, then the corresponding books should also be divided into four categories.

"The first level is the cultivators who struggle for a living. For them, reading books is not about logic, but about enjoying themselves as much as possible. The books we sell to them must be as light and enjoyable as possible.

"But even so, we can't make much profit from them because they don't have spirit stones. They can only pool their resources to buy one book and then share it with others."

"If that's the case, why..." Xu Mengyun frowned.

"Isn't that too much of a loss?"

Lin Chen interrupted her and said, "Let me finish."

"The second level is the cultivators who have just enough resources for their own cultivation but not enough spirit stones to spend at places like the Yichun Tower or the Honglin District. They are under pressure in their lives and want to find a way to relieve that pressure.

"So, we sell light novels to them, allowing them to release the pressure that is difficult to relieve in their lives. This way, they won't be burdened too much. Since they have already satisfied their basic needs for cultivation and life, they don't mind spending a little money."

"The third level consists of cultivators who have abundant cultivation resources and a good cultivation environment. For them, reading books is not just about enjoyment.

"They hope to travel through a real fantasy world, meet heroes, witness magnificent and strange scenes, explore the profound mysteries of the Great Dao, appreciate the charm of humanity, and experience delicate emotions. They have higher-level spiritual needs.

"These two levels are our main paying customers."

"What about the fourth level?" Xu Mengyun couldn't help but ask.

"The fourth level is the cultivators who are solely focused on seeking the Dao. They are the true elites of the sect. For them, these books are just goals to pursue, so they don't have much appeal."

"So we need to cater to their preferences and provide interesting cultivation knowledge, such as introducing the abilities of spiritual fire or the spiritual objects for Foundation Building. Only then will we attract them."

"I see..." Xu Mengyun pondered, "It's actually similar to selling goods in the mortal world. For the common people, sell necessities; for the wealthy, sell luxurious clothing; for high-ranking officials and nobles, sell classical artifacts."

"In short, it's about selling to different people," Xu Mengyun summarized.

"That's right. Finding the right positioning and selling to the right people is what we need to distinguish and pay attention to," Lin Chen said lightly.

"In that case, we don't need to sell to the first and fourth levels of consuming cultivators. After all, they can't bring us greater benefits," Xu Mengyun thought for a moment and spoke up.

"Who said they can't?" Lin Chen couldn't help but laugh. "We can still benefit from cultivators in these two levels, but in different ways."

"Oh? Please explain, Junior Brother," Xu Mengyun's eyes lit up, seeking advice.

"Of course, through advertising and investment," Lin Chen said.
