Chapter 229: The Great Advantage
Zhang Mu stared intently at the location of the large golden pearl, and soon, a scanned list appeared in front of him.
“Shanxi Aged Vinegar, a famous specialty from Shanxi, China, can enhance the flavor of other foods. Each unit costs three gold leaf, with a remaining stock of ten units.”
“Pingyao Beef, a specialty with a good reputation since the Ming and Qing dynasties in China, made from top-quality beef. Each unit costs one gold leaf, with a remaining stock of forty-seven units.”
“Qinzhou Yellow Rice, bright yellow in color, good for digestion. Each unit costs one gold leaf, with a remaining stock of thirty-seven units.”
No. 29 Era rchant is a true food lover, known for extracting Spiritual Essence from three Shanxi delicacies. It seems he has sampled them all and obtained them from sowhere.
Zhang Mu’s mory of this place was getting fuzzy. He rembered that the profits of the three types of goods in the Era Region were all normal, neither too high nor in loss. But the purchasing price at No. 37 in Luo Yang City for any of these goods was indeed high.
Seeing that the inventory was not whole numbers, Zhang Mu was certain that an Era Sub-rchant had been there before him. At that ti, he should have still been involved in the war in Jin Zhong City. It didn’t matter much, but Zhang Mu estimated that the other person had about six to seven gold leaves in hand. This ant that with his first big discount, he only earned half the profit. Zhang Mu felt a bit sorry suddenly, no wonder No. 29 looked so frustrated.
He didn’t have much capital with him, unlike in Xi An City where he could afford the whole Era Region goods. So, it wasn’t a problem, but he needed to decide on which one specifically.
Should he choose Qinzhou Yellow Rice or Pingyao Beef?
Zhang Mu tried hard to recall his mory at that ti, but it was indeed very blurry. He gave up on the old Chen Vinegar directly because the cost was too high. With his current seven and a half gold leaf funds, including the discount, he could barely afford the amount of three units. If the price difference was the sa as the other two, Zhang Mu would lose a lot.
Zhang Mu’s mind was full of these two food items now, but he still couldn’t figure it out.
At this mont, No. 29 spoke up, “You are just starting out in the era trading and don’t have much experience. So, just pick one at random. You can’t tell the quality of my Era Region goods just by looking.”
This statent actually woke Zhang Mu up. Oh yeah, he had experience from future lives!
Based on his future life experience, if the three types of Era Region goods from Shan Xi City were profitable, in this situation, usually the profit from Qinzhou Yellow Rice would be slightly higher than the beef, usually around five to ten percent. As for Shanxi Aged Vinegar, it could either bring huge profits or big losses. It could make you bleed money or make you wealthy overnight. However, it was not the right ti now. Zhang Mu rembered a ti when the prices of Shanxi Aged Vinegar skyrocketed at one point, but sadly, that wasn’t the case now.
“I’m just checking to see which one is a good choice. This Qinzhou Yellow Rice looks like a good option with a substantial amount. I should get a 20% discount, so I should be able to purchase nine units of Qinzhou Yellow Rice.”
Substantial amount? That’s a strange reason for choosing, but No. 29 believed it because at this stage, no one could have any statistical experience with Era Region goods.
No. 29 waved his chubby hand, and the golden pearl made a chanical sound, saying, “No. 001, enjoy a 50% discount on Era trades, purchase nine units of Qinzhou Yellow Rice, totaling 7.2 gold leaf, with a remaining quantity of 0.3 gold leaf.”
“Transaction completed, happy cooperation, wishing you a safe journey.”
At that mont, Zhang Mu pulled Yuan Rui beside him and said, “No. 29, my friend is also an Era Sub-rchant, let her do the transaction next.”
“No problem.”
Era rchants value their performance in the early stages because having more trading volu from another person increases their chances of success. They settle based on the amount and type of Spiritual Essence, eager for Zhang Mu and his team to hurry up with the transaction before the end of the quarter. Zhang Mu’s efficiency is well known, even before his Era Sub-rchant completes the first task, they are almost done with the second.
“Since it’s the early stage of the Era, there’s no experience barrier between you as you are the first group of Era Sub-rchants I’m hosting.”
No. 29 lazily looked at Zhang Mu and said.
Yuan Rui did not deliver the Era rchant task in Xi An City before, but now she has shiny Yellow River Carp worth ten gold leaves, which have turned into fifteen gold leaves.
She quickly took most of the Qinzhou Yellow Rice and asked for fifteen units.
From this, you can see Zhang Mu has a big natural advantage over regular Era Sub-rchants. With an additional twenty percent profit, he may complete tasks in just one trip, while others need two.
This is the huge advantage of being No. 001 in priority.
