"How come the turnover in the past two days is so high?
Although we have a holiday these two days, the turnover is too much, isn't it?
And look at the sales of toilet paper. More than 1 million rolls were sold in the past two days. Why? Do those guys on the ship eat toilet paper as their staple food?"
Manolin looked at the report that Fude Luo had just brought over, with a look of surprise on his face.
Seeing Manolin's confusion, Fudelo hurriedly stepped forward to explain:
"Mr. Manolin, you misunderstood. The goods in the supermarket were actually bought by people in the giant insect base.
After Fudelo said this, Manolin almost understood why the store's sales were so high in the past two days.
He almost forgot the special characteristics of the New World.
The bases in the New World are difficult to be self-sufficient, so a large amount of materials they need in their daily lives are shipped from the Old World by sea.
In this way, the price is naturally quite high.
And the prices of these goods in the New World are not only high, but also the quantity is not large, and there are often out of stock.
On the other hand, compared with the goods in the New World, these goods in the supermarket of [Pterosaur] are Whether it is price or quantity, it is a complete dimensionality reduction attack.
Backed by the [Phase Transmission Device], the supermarkets in the [Pterosaur] can purchase the lowest price and the best quality goods in various countries.
Even because these supermarkets are Manolin’s industry, these supermarkets do not even need to pay "tolls" when picking up goods.
This makes the cost of purchasing these goods very low.
And such a low purchase price, plus Manolin is not going to make much money on this, which makes the prices of goods in the supermarkets very low.
And such a good and cheap product is a fatal temptation for those in the giant insect base.
In the past two days, all the people in the giant insect base have turned into "Tuntun rats", vowing to spend every penny they have.
"It's really scary. "
Looking at the figures on the report again, Manolin found it hard to imagine that the tens of thousands of people in the Giant Insect Stronghold could actually have the consumption power of a large city with millions of people.
...
After quickly processing the remaining documents, Manolin prepared to go out for a stroll.
He had been busy choosing a place to develop in the past two days, and had not really experienced the local customs and practices of the Giant Insect Stronghold.
And now he had nothing to do, so he could go out for a stroll.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Manolin!"
"Well, good afternoon. ”
“…”
Along the way, Manolin greeted the crew members who came out to play and observed the surrounding environment.
Since the giant insect base was built without considering the problem of sewage and drainage, the environment here is very bad.
Although it is not as "a mountain of feces and a sea of urine" as in medieval Europe, it is also very exaggerated.
Looking at the dirty streets and the dilapidated log houses around, Manolin couldn't help but complain:
"No wonder Vincent always wants to run away, this place is not a place for people to stay at all. "
Of course, this place is not without advantages. For example, there are a lot of stalls selling various items found in the ruins.
These stalls on the roadside are tattered, but among the items they put on the stalls, there are more than one or two items with magical aura.
Things like gold and silver are randomly placed on the stalls, like sundries.
Originally, these items would be shipped back to the Old World by ship.
However, these days, since the crew members of the [Pterosaur] have all come out to play, many smart guys have taken out the various goods they usually accumulate to set up stalls.
Because the members are very rich, these street vendors have made a lot of money in the past two days.
"Boss, how much is this puppet? ”
Seeing the customer coming, the street vendor with a face full of flesh immediately put on an unusually kind smile.
Because of his face full of flesh, this smile became unusually ferocious.
Just from this smile, if someone said that this street vendor had eaten people, others would believe it.
"Customer, you have a good eye. This is a [Substitute Puppet] I found from a Second Era Ruins.
The customer should know the name of [Substitute Doll], right?
This thing is the original [Substitute Doll]..."
Manolin waved his hand to interrupt the chattering street vendor.
He still has some research on [Substitute Doll]. The [Fraudster] who escaped from his hands once left behind a damaged [Substitute Doll].
[Substitute Doll] asThe top product of the [Alchemist] profession, although Manolin, the legendary [Mechanic], cannot manufacture it, it is not a problem to study its most basic principles and magic patterns.
According to his observation, the [Substitute Puppet] mentioned by the street vendor is the original version of the [Substitute Doll], which is somewhat credible.
But the problem is that these magic items are not more powerful the older they are.
For example, this [Substitute Puppet] is far inferior to the [Substitute Doll].
First of all, this [Substitute Puppet] can only be triggered actively, not passively like the [Substitute Doll].
In addition, the [Substitute Puppet] does not have the ability to "replace death".
If the owner of the [Substitute Puppet] is killed instantly by someone, even if the puppet has been triggered, it will be completely useless.
Of course, although this thing has a lot of shortcomings, it is still no problem to use it for research.
So in the end Manolin bought it.
Seeing Manolin so happily buy the [Substitute Puppet], the stall owner's big face was full of smiles.
[Substitute Puppet] is a magic item with limited effect and expensive price, which is really unpopular here.
Wouldn't it be nice to buy a [Substitute Doll] with that spare money?
Since the stall owner got this [Substitute Puppet], he has not sold it.
Originally, he was going to sell it at a lower price, but who would have thought that there would be a "sucker" like Manolin who happily bought it.
After sending Manolin away, the stall owner immediately prepared to close the stall.
After making such a large sum of money in one day, he was going to quickly go to the [Pterosaur] to exchange the money for goods and stock up.
For example, if the high-quality and low-priced goods in the [Pterosaur] are missed, the stall owner will feel a loss if he buys less.
