Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 93 Hamster Theory
Late at night, Mingyue Pavilion closed its shops and set up a banquet in the spacious hall in the backyard. This time it was Xu Wen who took the initiative to propose a banquet, saying that he wanted to entertain several people from the Hunyuan Sect.

Previously, Song Xian proposed to treat several people from Mingyue Pavilion to a banquet, but she politely declined. But now she took the initiative to invite them, which was enough to show that her psychological changes towards several people from Hunyuan Sect had taken place in just over a month.

Xu Wen's inner perception of Hunyuan Sect did undergo a drastic change. At the beginning, when Song Xian approached her to discuss cooperation, she thought it would be profitable, so she agreed. In her heart, she actually did not look down on Hunyuan Sect.

As a dignified sect, they cannot even open an independent shop in the market, and have to sell goods in their own shop in this way.

So when Song Xian proposed to invite her to a banquet, she refused, because deep down she didn't want to have too many personal connections with such a poor sect. Business is business, and there is no need to promote personal relationships.

But these days, she discovered that her previous judgment was seriously wrong. The people in Hunyuan Sect were not simple. They all had ideas and talents.

Feng Yan's sales ability was the first to be recognized and appreciated by her. Hunyuan Sect moved into Mingyue Pavilion and opened several counters to sell Yuxiang Dan. Just a few days later, she heard people below talking about how capable this woman was.

Almost everyone in the shop praised her unanimously, saying that she was kind, good-tempered, smart, and very eloquent.

Out of curiosity, she observed him several times in person, and found that he was indeed amiable to customers, had a very good sense of propriety, was very good at observing people's expressions, and spoke in a very coherent manner. His abilities were obviously much better than those in her own shop, which made her feel ashamed of herself.

If it were just that, it would be fine. However, not long after Hunyuan Sect moved in, the number of customers coming and going in the shop increased visibly. In the past, there were only an average of sixty to seventy customers a day, but later the number increased day by day.

At first she didn't take it too seriously, until she heard that these people were all here for Yuxiangdan. She was surprised, and after asking around, she found out that these people had seen the Yuxiangdan brand in various places and came here out of curiosity.

All of this came from Song Xian's idea. He personally went to all the large and small gathering places of cultivators in Bianxia City and put up signs for Yuxiangdan.

Only then did she begin to look at Hunyuan Sect differently.

Seeing that the flow of people to Mingyue Pavilion is getting bigger and bigger day by day, now, there are more than a hundred people visiting every day, which is twice as many as before. Although most of them come for Yuxiang Pill, there are always people who are not satisfied with the price of Yuxiang Pill and are interested in other cultivation items of Mingyue Pavilion. As a result, the sales of Mingyue Pavilion have increased significantly compared with before.

Today happened to be the end of the month, so Song Xian calculated the accounts and gave her 20% of the profits from the Yuxiang Pill as agreed, a total of 187 spirit stones.

Xu Wen didn't expect that she would get so much spirit stones in just over a month. In addition, the traffic to Mingyue Pavilion increased greatly and sales soared. All this was due to the entry of Hunyuan Sect. She was very happy and suggested that they close the shop at night and invite several people from Hunyuan Sect to a banquet.

At this time, she had completely put away her previous contempt for them, and even secretly regarded them as gods of wealth. She hoped that they would stay so that they would not take away the popularity of Mingyue Pavilion after they left.

"Master Song is very resourceful. He actually thought of this method. I am deeply impressed. The number of people visiting my shop has increased dramatically these days. Nearly 150 people come every day, and we sell a lot of goods. I would like to offer this glass of wine to Master Song, Sister Feng, and Fellow Daoist Jiang. I hope our cooperation will get better and better in the future." After everyone was seated, Xu Wen raised her glass and said.

After drinking the whole thing in one gulp, Song Xian smiled and said, "This isn't a brilliant move. It's just that others are proud of their status and don't want to do something that would humiliate them. My sect is weak, and my cultivation is low, so I don't care about this little bit of face."

"And it's not just because I've been posting banners everywhere advertising the Jade Fragrance Pills, but many people also come here for your reputation. They trust your reputation, and many believe the Jade Fragrance Pills are yours, so they buy them with confidence. In a sense, this is all thanks to your kindness."

This is not exactly flattery. Many people do believe that this is a new type of elixir produced by the Mingyue Sect. Although the Mingyue Sect is not as famous as the Beast Taming Sect and the Luoyun Sect in Bianxi City, it is also a big sect in Humen City. Bianxi City is adjacent to Humen City, so there are still many people who know about this sect.

Most people always have a natural sense of trust in famous large sects, which has indirectly affected the psychology of many people. They feel that although the newly developed elixirs of well-known sects are a little more expensive, they are still acceptable.

If it was the elixir refined by the Hunyuan Sect, others would have never heard of this sect and would naturally not trust things refined by such an unknown small sect. Moreover, the price was so expensive that most people would feel like they were being cheated.

This is also one of the reasons why Yuxiangdan cannot be sold in the Nanyuan Valley Market in Bianxia Town.

For this reason, Song Xian specifically instructed Feng Yan that as long as the guests did not specifically ask which sect the elixir came from, she should try not to mention the name of Hunyuan Sect, so that they would mistakenly think that it was a new type of elixir refined by Mingyue Sect.

It can be said that the cooperation between Hunyuan Sect and Mingyue Pavilion achieved a win-win situation.

The Hunyuan Sect used the Mingyue Pavilion to squeeze the Yuxiang Pill into the large market of Bianxi City, and used the name of the Mingyue Sect to cover up the origin of the Yuxiang Pill, so that the guests who came and went had more trust in the pill.

Mingyue Pavilion also gained a wave of customers thanks to Song Xian's publicity. Not only did it sell many more cultivation items than usual, it also reaped 20% of the profits from Yuxiang Dan.

……

Both of them were very satisfied with this cooperation. They drank and chatted, and everyone was having a great time.

The next day, Song Xian left Qingfengfang and returned to the market shop in Bianxia Town to share his progress with Zhang Ningyuan. Hearing that over a hundred Jade Fragrance Pills had been sold in just over a month, with sales reaching 935 spirit stones, Zhang Ningyuan was both surprised and delighted. As long as they could maintain this sales volume, it would mean that the Hunyuan Sect would have a firm foothold in Bianxi City.

The Yuxiang Pill alone is enough to cover all the sect's expenses, and there is even some left over.

In the past few months, he has regarded this matter as his mission and career. Now that things are finally showing signs of improvement, he is even more excited than Song Xian.

"Master, I want to go to Qingfengfang shop to sell Yuxiangdan. Is that possible?" Zhang Ningyuan made the request without hesitation, feeling happy.

"Um... Senior Brother Ning Yuan is still in charge of the shop for the time being. If you are transferred there, there will be no one to take care of this place. Let Junior Sister Feng and Junior Brother Jiang take care of that place. This shop is our base camp."

Song Xian naturally would not agree to transfer him there. If he was transferred to Qingfengfang, who would be in charge of the sale of Yuxiangdan there, him or Feng Yan?

He is an elder of Hunyuan Sect who followed from Qingyun Sect. He has been in charge of the affairs of Hunyuan Shop before. His cultivation is also higher than Feng Yan. If the two of them are together, he will definitely be the dominant one. However, in terms of sales ability, he cannot compare with Feng Yan.

If he were to take the lead, Feng Yan might become dissatisfied. If there were friction between the two, the Yuxiangdan, which had just started to show some improvement, might end up back to square one.

Of course, it's also possible that the two of them could work together in unity and live in peace. But there's still a risk of conflict, so there's no need to risk that possibility. The best solution is for each of them to manage their own affairs.

Although the sales of Yuxiangdan at Hunyuan Pavilion in Nanyuan Valley Market are not ideal, it does not prevent it from being used as the base for wholesale of Yuxiangdan in the future.

Entering the Bianxi City market is only the first step in Song Xian's plan. His ultimate goal is to spread Yuxiangdan throughout the Qin State's cultivation world, so that most of the Qin State's female cultivators will know the Yuxiangdan brand and use it.

This requires a complete sales channel and a stable base. If you want to sell an item to every corner, you need to have your own store in every city. This is an astronomical expense, and you need a strong sect to guarantee it. For example, a large sect like the Qianqing Sect has its own store in the largest market in every city.

It is almost harder than climbing to the sky for Hunyuan Sect to achieve this. Not to mention becoming a behemoth like Qianqing Sect, even developing into a sect like Luoyun Sect is not something that can be achieved overnight. It requires at least a hundred years of heritage, and Hunyuan Sect has only been established for less than a year.

But Song Xian had his own ideas and plans. There was no need for the Hunyuan Sect to open shops in every city. It only needed to find a powerful sect to cooperate with, just like cooperating with the Mingyue Pavilion. As long as the goods could be put in other people's shops for sale, wouldn't it be equivalent to opening a shop of its own?

This is much simpler than opening a shop, which requires a lot of costs, while this costs almost nothing.

As long as they are famous enough and find a powerful sect to cooperate with, they can put the Jade Fragrance Pills on the shelves of shops in various cities and markets in a short period of time.

This is certainly not easy, but compared to developing into a giant sect like the Qianqing Sect, there is a huge difference.

The former may still be possible, but the latter is simply impossible.

The main ingredient of Yuxiangdan, Panlongxiang, needs to be transported from Muhe Grassland. Bianxia Town is located right between the Far East City of Muhe Grassland and the Bianxi City of Qin State, so at this stage it is most appropriate to use Bianxia Town Market as the base camp.

Zhang Ningyuan was in high spirits, and when he heard him say that, he didn't think much about it and felt a little regretful.

Song Xian didn't want to get entangled with him on this matter, so he ordered him to find Qi Xiaobai.

Not long after, Qi Xiaobai and Carissa arrived at the shop, and the three of them went into the house in the back courtyard.

"Master, why did you call us here? What instructions do you have?" Qi Xiaobai asked after sitting down.

Song Xian then recounted the sales situation of Yuxiangdan in Bianxi City, and both of them were delighted after hearing it.

"Are there really so many people buying it?" Qi Xiaobai was still a little bit unbelievable. Although all the Yuxiang Pills were made by him personally, he never thought that it was something great. It was just a toy, and he was always skeptical about the high price.

Just because this was Song Xian's decision, he carried it out to the letter, but in his heart he felt that this thing had no future.

Even though more than 130 pieces were sold last time, they were bought by one person. He was just lucky and met a sucker.

However, this time when the Yuxiang Pill was sold at Qingfengfang, it was bought by so many people in just over a month. It was not just luck. It showed that this thing was indeed loved and favored by many people, which made him both surprised and happy.
