Chapter 2166: Pill Assassin (1/86)

,!

According to Mr. Zanghu's original plan to expand his medicine shop, he could directly absorb all medicine shops in small and medium-sized towns in a short period of time, and acquire NPC medicine shops for himself with high-quality and low-priced elixirs.

Then, through the publicity of the medicine shop, he could attract more NPC players to join in, and he would develop and produce elixirs uniformly. As long as the secret of the elixir formula could be ensured, this would be a business that could make money without lying down.

It means that the other players joining Mr. Zanghu's medicine shop is equivalent to opening an offline channel for selling medicines, and Mr. Zanghu can earn franchise fees and share of the sales of elixirs without lying down.

As for whether the quality of the medicine is good enough, all the tricks here will be checked by Mr. Zanghu.

This is just a game, and there are usually no problems with drug safety. For the other players, as long as Mr. Zanghu can provide a stable supply of goods, this is a win-win business.

But after the demand increases, how to increase the output is also a big problem. If players are hired to participate, the formula of the elixir is likely to be leaked.

So Mr. Zanghu's idea is to hire a large number of NPCs to refine elixirs for him.

This directly solves the problem of production capacity.

Originally, everything was developing in an orderly manner according to Mr. Zanghu's plan.

Until Mr. Zanghu went to a drugstore in a medium-sized town to investigate, he was suddenly shocked to find that a level 4 pill worth 5 million silver taels was on the shelf in this medium-sized town's drugstore.

"A level 4 pill... 5 million taels?"

Mr. Zanghu frowned.

This is also a pill produced by players themselves. Generally speaking, the market price of a level 4 pill is usually sold for 1 million in the world of Sanxianer's magic circle.

Unless the materials are particularly rare, there may be a double premium.

For this level 4 pill worth 5 million, Mr. Zanghu carefully checked the information of this pill.

Name: Guixian Dragon Blood Pill

Quality: Level 4

Rarity: ★★★★

Effect: After taking it, all attributes can be temporarily increased by 25 points, which lasts for 24 hours. This temporary attribute bonus is effective for both dungeons and player pk. At the same time, you will get a special aura of "lasting light".

Note: In the special state of "lasting light", when your character encounters a fatal blow, he will not die directly, but will be locked in a state of 1 drop of blood. At the same time, when the "lasting light" state takes effect,

all abnormal states on the body will be cleared.

To be honest, the effect of the pill is not top-notch.

The effect of lasting light is also available in some of Mr. Zanghu's existing pills. Some pills will produce such special medicinal properties, but the probability of it appearing is relatively low.

So 5 million per pill is a bit too outrageous in Mr. Zanghu's opinion.

And this is what he found when he was checking out.

"Mr. Zanghu, who looks very similar to Zanghu, please ask...are you still buying it?" The clerk looked at Mr. Zanghu and said politely.

This is what Mr. Zanghu thinks is the most outrageous.

Because in order to do market research, usually after arriving at a new map, Mr. Zanghu will buy all the pills in this medicine store at one time to do a price survey.

As a result, he never expected that when choosing the elixir, the price of this 5 million Guixian Dragon Blood Pill was actually hidden!

It was not until he found the astronomical number on the bill when he paid that he realized that he had been backstabbed!

Mr. Zanghu's face was undoubtedly desperate...

He had only heard of ice cream assassins.

But he had never heard of elixir assassins.

In the real world, daily necessities such as elixirs must have strict production qualifications, and they must be strictly controlled from production to sales. Most of the elixirs that can be purchased on the market are clearly marked with prices. Even if there are price fluctuations in different places, they usually do not exceed 3 yuan of Huaxiu coins.

Oh...

This is a game.

That's fine.

I can only say that the person who can use the routine of ice cream assassins to sell elixirs in the game is indeed a talent.

And their sales model is obviously targeted at users, basically only pitting players with money or new players who don't understand at all.

The raw materials may not be genuine, and although they are rare, they are not that rare. Therefore, the value of 5 million per pill, 4 million of which comes more from the story of the pill itself.

Through content marketing, customers can get through the mindset of the buyers and make them feel that the pills they buy are worth the money.

So in essence.

This is not only buying pills, but also a touching little story...

This really makes the work of content payment clear!

Looking at the clerk in front of him with contempt in his eyes, it is obvious that this clerk has been trained to a considerable extent.

Mr. Zanghu probably knows a little about this kind of routine.

Usually when you hesitate to pay, these clerks will put on a sneering face, using micro-expressions or innocuous and sarcastic remarks to stimulate you to spend money.

But Mr. Zanghu is an old man. As a walking encyclopedia of the cultivation world, Mr. Zanghu's experience is not limited to books, but also rich social experience.

He would not be fooled by the clerk's cold stare, and finally he moved the pill assassin out of the shopping cart and left.

Although the existence of the Pill Assassin harvests the mid-to-high-end market, and there is no obvious conflict with Mr. Zanghu's current layout, if in the future, when Mr. Zanghu wants to enter the high-end market, it will be too late to enter this part of the market.

And in Mr. Zanghu's view, if you want to make pills high-end, you can never rely on simple stories.

He needs to really make the pills high-end, make this pill worthwhile, and gain the recognition of mainstream players.

In addition to using top-quality raw materials, the way of refining pills must also be updated.

Traditional alchemy uses pill furnaces. The pill furnace rooms in modern cultivation society are all combined with high-tech equipment, networked big data, and all the medicinal materials added are accurate to milligrams. Even the temperature is precisely controlled by modern technology. This makes the quality of pills stabilized and standardized.

However, under this standardized model, the pills produced are naturally standardized pills. In ancient times, the same formula of the monks made pills, and the pills made had different characteristics. This is based on the addition of natural forces, which gives the pills other additional attributes.

Take Mr. Zanghu's outdoor alchemy, for example. He used the most primitive pots and pans, and his success rate was not as good as that of regular alchemy pots, but he could stably refine some specific pills.

At this time.

Mr. Zanghu opened the game map.

He had a very bold idea in his heart.

There are thousands of ways to refine pills, but if there is a way to greatly increase the value of the pills and make the specificity of the pills reach the extreme... Mr. Zanghu's personal experience can only think of one way.

He needs to find an active volcano!

Yes!

Volcano alchemy!

He will use an active volcano as an alchemy furnace to refine pills!
