Chapter 13002
"The greater the reputation of the master craftsman, the higher the quality of the master craftsman's products, the higher the market recognition, and the higher the price will naturally be."
"On the other hand, your Tianjun doesn't even have a single renowned divine equipment synthesizer. Who will endorse these intermediate divine equipment? How can the quality be guaranteed?"
"The key issue is that even if you say it's of high quality, who in the market will recognize that? If you compare it to the mid-level divine equipment in our open-world region, can the price be the same?"
At first glance, his words seemed reasonable and irrefutable.
Lin Yi frowned: "I can understand that the reputation of a Divine Equipment Synthesizer is greatly enhanced."
"But the actual quality of the divine equipment is ultimately a matter of fact, and those in the industry can see it clearly. Especially with your chamber of commerce's professional expertise, it is certainly beyond question."
"I can guarantee that the quality of this batch of intermediate divine equipment I have is top-notch, no lower than that of intermediate divine equipment circulating in the market."
Mo Beibei curled her lips dismissively: "Young Master Lin, please don't blame me for being hurtful, but the divine equipment market mainly values reputation. If you were a top-tier divine equipment synthesizer, there would be nothing wrong with what you said, but you are not."
"Even if I accept these words, my clients in the Mo's Chamber of Commerce will not accept them."
"What if we buy them back at a high price and end up with nothing to show for it?"
After several rounds of back and forth, it all boiled down to one sentence.
This batch of intermediate-level divine equipment lacks the endorsement of a divine equipment synthesizer.
This can be considered as hitting Lin Yi's weak point.
The fact that we can use the Wuhou Star Chart to synthesize divine equipment must never be revealed.
If Lin Yi wanted to prove the origin of the equipment, he could only say that he had personally crafted all of it.
But if we do that, people will start asking questions.
Your Tianjun has never had many divine equipment pieces throughout history, so how come you suddenly appeared as a divine equipment synthesizer, and you even produced 1,100 intermediate divine equipment pieces all at once?
Even if you dare to say it, will others dare to believe it?
After some back and forth, Mo Beibei finally said, "Considering Elder Zhao's introduction, I'll compromise again. Thirty-two high-level divine equipment pieces are my bottom line."
Manager Wu opened his mouth to speak, but ultimately remained silent.
Although he was a senior manager, he only had the right to offer suggestions, not the right to make decisions, in such matters.
Since Mo Beibei insisted on this price, he had no choice but to comply.
Lin Yi was silent for a moment: "In that case, let's put this deal on hold for now and take another look."
Mo Beibei smiled and took a steady sip of her tea: "Young Master Lin, please think it over carefully."
Lin Yi was indeed not as easy to fool as she had imagined, but she was not worried at all and remained calm and composed.
Ultimately, large merchant guilds wouldn't send anyone to a small place like Tianjun, since they wouldn't normally even have a single mid-level divine item.
Even if Lin Yi were to spread the word that he had 1,100 pieces of intermediate-level divine equipment, people would just think he was crazy and wouldn't take it seriously at all.
In the short term, Lin Yi had no other choice but to make a move.
"You'll have to hand you over to me sooner or later."
Mo Beibei sneered inwardly: "I've got you figured out."
After leaving the New Heavenly Palace, Mo Beibei and her companion did not go to the accommodation that Lin Yi had arranged for them, but instead rented a private secret realm on their own.
After settling in, Manager Wu, who had been holding back all the way, was about to discuss the matter with her when the communication talisman in Mo Beibei's arms suddenly rang.
Upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be the current head of the Mo family, the head of the Mo Clan Chamber of Commerce, and Mo Beibei's father.
Boss Mo.
Mo Beibei gave Manager Wu a wink, and Manager Wu immediately knew better than to leave.
Only then did she connect to the communication.
A deep, magnetic middle-aged voice then came from the jade talisman: "Beibei, how's the deal with Tianjun going? Is that Lin Yiren alright?"
Mo Beibei immediately recounted the whole story, and finally said with undisguised pride, "Tianjun has no other channels for distributing goods, so he will have to come back to me sooner or later. Now we just have to see how many days he can hold out."
Boss Mo's voice changed as he asked, "How much did you quote?"
"Thirty pieces, half the market price."
Mo Beibei smiled and said, "But I still added two more items for him later, as a way of consoling him."
"Shut up."
Boss Mo took a deep breath: "Do you know who he is? He was personally introduced to me by Elder Zhao of the God of Wealth Academy! I repeatedly told you to give me a proper price, why did you pull this stunt?"
Mo Beibei was stunned for a moment: "Dad, isn't that how we do business?"
Boss Mo looked at him with exasperation: "What do you know about doing business! Go find him right now and offer him a good price!"
"Listen carefully, it's a better price than the market price, do you understand?"
Mo Beibei frowned: "Higher than the market price? Then we're not making any profit? Dad, the Mo family are business people, and this is my family's assessment. How can I do this..."
Boss Mo interrupted impatiently, "Do as I say, and don't act on your own anymore, do you understand?"
By the end, his tone had become more severe than ever before.
Mo Beibei was silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "I understand."
After hanging up the call, Mo Beibei immediately took Manager Wu back to the New Heavenly Palace that very night.
Upon seeing Lin Yi, she went straight to the point: "My father just instructed me that, out of respect for Elder Zhao, I'm prepared to make an exception and not try to lower your price according to market rules."
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow: "Miss Mo, please speak."
Mo Beibei held up six fingers: "One price, sixty pieces of high-level divine equipment, this is already far above the market price."
Lin Yi and Zhang Baiyu exchanged a glance.
According to their previous estimates, the market price for this batch of intermediate-level divine equipment was equivalent to sixty pieces of advanced-level divine equipment, given the quality.
However, exchanging these divine items in the open area of the Divine Realm would be an extremely complicated process, making it impossible to catch the upcoming auction at the God of Wealth Academy.
Lin Yi thought for a moment and said, "Deal."
Mo Beibei smiled slightly: "In that case, please have Young Master Lin take me to see your 1,100 pieces of intermediate-level divine equipment."
Lin Yi nodded and immediately led the other party to the New Heavenly Palace warehouse.
Looking at the neatly arranged 1,100 pieces of intermediate-level divine equipment in front of them, even Mo Beibei and Shopkeeper Wu were momentarily stunned.
Although they had seen countless divine weapons, it was still quite rare to see so many displayed in front of them all at once.
Moreover, with their keen eyesight, they could tell that every piece of divine equipment here was of quite good quality.
"I made a profit."
Mo Beibei was secretly delighted.
Based solely on this quality, even if you handed over sixty pieces of high-level divine equipment, it would still be a guaranteed profit.
She then said, "Our Mo Clan Chamber of Commerce operates on a first-in, first-out basis. Only after Young Master Lin has delivered all 1,100 pieces of mid-level divine equipment can I help you allocate the corresponding high-level divine equipment." (End of Chapter)
