Chapter 428: Chapter 428: Won’t Miss You
“Selling apples?” Lin Yuanyuan couldn’t quite understand. Was this so-called transformation really about selling fruit?
Li Xiaoyao knew her confusion and countered, “What’s wrong with selling fruit? Can’t we sell them?”
Lin Yuanyuan’s Xiubrow slightly furrowed, “But…”
Li Xiaoyao interrupted her, “Let ask you, if an apple sold for a hundred Xuan Country Currency apiece, would you think that’s expensive?”
“A hundred for one?” Lin Yuanyuan thought for a few seconds, then nodded, “I can accept that, but that price is still too expensive for ordinary people.”
“These apples are not ant to cater to the masses. If your goal is to dominate the common market, I can tell you now, it won’t work.” Li Xiaoyao plucked an apple casually and said, “My initial thought is to price these apples at five hundred apiece. Don’t look at like that. Five hundred each is cheap, not expensive.”
...
“The soil beneath our feet is infused with Spiritual Energy, a Spirit Soil. This mountaintop has been enhanced with a Spirit Gathering Array by . Even if it were just a clump of foxtail grass planted here, it could be used in dicine.”
“The fruits borne by this tree contain rich Spiritual Energy. Mortals who eat them can strengthen their bodies and ward off disease and pain. For Cultivators and Martial Artists, it can enhance their Cultivation Level. Of course, one fruit alone won’t achieve this effect, but if consud in large quantities, it can absolutely serve as a low-grade substitute for Spirit Stones.”
“Now, do you still think five hundred per apple is expensive?”
If it really had these effects, then five hundred indeed wasn’t expensive, it was actually very cheap. After all, fruit containing Spiritual Energy would likely be snatched up by Cultivators and Martial Artists if put on the market.
It’s impossible for any product to dominate an entire market. In such a vast market, owning just a part of it is more than enough.
Li Xiaoyao choosing fruits imbued with Spiritual Energy specifically targeted the market of Martial Artists and Cultivators.
None of the Martial Artists and Cultivators were poor; forget about five hundred per apple, even if it were five thousand per apple, there would still be buyers.
Such a large market remained untapped until now. Of course, there’s a reason for that.
Even if the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country joined forces, they couldn’t possibly supply Spirit Fruits in unlimited quantities. But Li Xiaoyao could.
Spirit Fruits were just the first step; next, Li Xiaoyao planned to cultivate dicinal herbs, refine Pill dicines, weaponry, and even Formation runes.
This was an extrely extensive industrial chain; if monopolized completely, Li Xiaoyao could potentially stand on equal footing with the Eight Great Sects of Xuan Country by his own strength.
However, Li Xiaoyao understood that achieving such a status would be extrely difficult.
Despite having exceptional resources, it’s inevitable to encounter rough sailing during developnt.
Such huge profits would certainly attract covetous eyes from all directions. The imdiate priority was to quickly beco stronger, which was the right path to take.
Moreover, Li Xiaoyao’s aspirations did not lie there.
Money is external; what use is wealth if you possess it abundantly?
Li Xiaoyao only wished to beco stronger, to protect the won and friends around him from harm, and then to venture into the Cultivation World in search of Zhuo Yi.
The world that Li Xiaoyao could currently see was very, very small. The appearance of the Northern Shadow Immortal Venerable made him realize that the world he lived in was but one extrely small plane.
Beyond the human world, there lay a vast expanse as wide as the mist-filled skies.
If what the Buddhist Law says is true, then the existence of the three thousand great thousand worlds should be a fact.
“Little Peach Garden Mountain is my gift to you. I believe that with this mountain, it shouldn’t be too much of a problem for the Lin family to successfully transition,” Li Xiaoyao looked at Lin Yuanyuan, his eyes full of tenderness.
“Don’t talk about the secrets here to anyone for the ti being. As for planting and harvesting here, arrange for a few trustworthy people to do it.”
“You must do a good job in keeping it confidential at the initial stage. Once the Spirit Fruits are on the shelves and introduced in various high-end shopping malls, they must be priced high, and you should not care about what others think. Trust , if you do this well, the Lin family will beco one of the top family businesses in Ling City, and even in the entire Lu Province.”
“These two will assist you. In the future, sales channels for the Spirit Fruits will be limited to the three of you. If soone seeks cooperation, don’t be too quick to refuse; wait for to handle it.”
Li Xiaoyao was like a nanny, attentive and responsible, making Lin Yuanyuan feel that as long as Li Xiaoyao was around, there was no trouble that couldn’t be solved.
Lin Yuanyuan did not leave with Li Xiaoyao; she stayed in Muze City.
The scene she saw on Little Peach Garden Mountain greatly boosted Lin Yuanyuan’s confidence, and she could feel Li Xiaoyao’s care for her. However, what troubled her was that this damned man seed to really have no such thoughts about her.
“That shouldn’t be the case, right?” In the hotel, wearing only underwear, Lin Yuanyuan stood in front of the mirror, admiring her near-perfect figure and face, and murmured with a pout, “Could it be that he prefers n? Or is he unable in that respect?”
Li Xiaoyao had already driven into the city when he suddenly sneezed without any warning: “Achoo!”
Rubbing his nose, he muttered, “Who’s thinking of ?”
…
These days, Tang Tiantian and the girls were incredibly busy; the establishnt of the Dream Charity Foundation brought good news to the children in the impoverished mountain areas.
In the beginning, the dia mocked and ridiculed, thinking that the Dream Charity Foundation was just a front for making money in the na of charity, but the girls proved through their actions that they were serious about doing charity work.
They posted the donations received on the internet. The destination of each sum of money was recorded in elaborate detail.
They would have to be busy at the beginning, to the point that they had very little ti left for cultivation.
Li Xiaoyao said nothing; in life, what’s most important is to have a goal and a belief. If one doesn’t even have that, what’s the difference from a walking corpse?
He supported the girls in their charity work, but he felt sorry for them running around all over the country. Thankfully, they now all had cultivation levels, so ordinary people couldn’t threaten them. This also gave Li Xiaoyao so peace of mind.
Jiuyin was like a country dog that had never seen the world, running around with the girls all day, playing the role of a cold-faced bodyguard. As a result of attending so many events, it was expected that the girls beca popular, but even he, as a bodyguard, beca a sensation on the internet because of his cold, handso face.
One day, Li Xiaoyao woke up from his cultivation and looked at the ti before getting out of bed and leaving the room.
Now there was only Xiaoqing at ho, since the girls were rarely in Ling City, leading Xiaoqing to often skip classes every other day. As for what she did with the ti she skipped classes, Li Xiaoyao could guess without even using his toes.
Aside from eating, what else could this girl do?
“I’m leaving. If they ask when they co back, just say I’ve gone to the military. This ti it might be a while, and they needn’t worry about ,” Li Xiaoyao instructed before leaving.
Xiaoqing’s eyes were on the TV, and without turning back, she said, “Hmm, I won’t miss you.”
Li Xiaoyao: “…”
