Chapter 67 Expansion
The real core profit of Tianfu store.
Now they are basically the output from Qingxuan Blessed Land and the elixirs refined by Ye Qingxuan himself.
Although the number of third-level elixir-cleansing elixirs refined by Ye Qingxuan was not large, the success was due to the high elixir-making rate and large profits.
Although the transaction flow brought by other channels seems to be large, the actual benefits are not much, and it is time-consuming and laborious to process. This is why Ye Qingxuan was not willing to spend too much effort to expand Tianfu store before.
However, if Zhu Dafu is willing to take the initiative to do these things and help Tianfu's store expand, Ye Qingxuan does not mind investing this spiritual stone.
Hearing the conditions given by Ye Qingxuan and seeing that Ye Qingxuan also had great intentions, Zhu Dafu rolled his eyes, thought for a moment, and bargained:
"The benefits brought by the channel I built, I want to take a 20% share, and I want to be the person in charge of the Tianfu store.”
Ye Qingxuan doesn’t care about the 20% share of the channel. It’s just a channel anyway, and he doesn’t need to pay much. Zhu Dafu takes more of the price and is more motivated to work.
As for Zhu Dafu’s last request, it was exactly what he wanted. He could give Zhu Dafu fame and glory, because Ye Qingxuan didn’t care about these, as long as the actual benefits belonged to him.
However, although he wants to stay behind the scenes, it does not mean that he is willing to let the Tianfu store completely out of his control.
So, after Ye Qingxuan pondered for a moment, he said in a deep voice:
"I can agree to the conditions you mentioned, but you must agree to a few requirements of mine."
" What request? "
Seeing Ye Qingxuan agree, Zhu Dafu suppressed his excitement and asked.
Without paying attention to Zhu Dafu's reaction, Ye Qingxuan directly made his request:
"The first point is that your commission from the channel cannot be lower than the market price."
Previously, the talent store wanted to To supplement low-end products, only 2.5% of the commission was taken from the alchemists, talisman makers, weapon refiners, and formation masters who cooperated with Tianfu store.
In Danfang City, since Xuantian Sect will take 20% of the store’s transaction volume, the normal commission for store cooperation is 30%.
Tianfu’s store did not expand before, so it did not affect the Fangshi market. It didn’t matter how many people were signed with a 2.5% commission.
However, if the Tianfu store expands in the future and still cooperates with a low price to poach other stores, this will undoubtedly be an enemy of the entire Fangshi store, which is not what Ye Qingxuan wants.
That’s why Ye Qingxuan made this rule, just in case.
“That’s no problem, I agree!”
Zhu Dafu decisively agreed to Ye Qingxuan’s request.
Zhu Dafu is not stupid either. He knows the consequences of breaking the unspoken rules and offending everyone, so he also fully agrees with this.
Seeing that Zhu Dafu agreed to this, Ye Qingxuan nodded and continued:
"Secondly, you must make an oath to abide by the following three points:
First, as long as you are in Once you have been employed in Tianfu Store for one day, you must obey my orders on matters related to Tianfu Store; secondly, you cannot reveal my existence or any information; thirdly, you cannot deliberately do anything that harms my interests.”
First point, it can be said that the constraints on Zhu Dafu are extremely great.
But Zhu Dafu gritted his teeth, looked like a gambler, and finally nodded fiercely:
"I agreed."
After reaching an agreement with Zhu Dafu.
Ye Qingxuan asked the brothers Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu to withdraw and handed over the Tianfu store to Zhu Dafu for management.
From then on, the person in charge of Tianfu store became Zhu Dafu. With the lessons from previous failures, Zhu Dafu did not act rashly after taking over the Tianfu store.
He first hired two clerks in Xuantian Sect to take care of Tianfu's store, and then began to travel around Xuantian Sect to visit various low-level alchemists, talisman makers, weapon refiners, and formation masters.
Although most alchemists, talisman makers, weapon refiners, and array masters have reached agreements with other shops, there are always fish that slip through the net.
After Zhu Dafu was busy running around, he found quite a few alchemists, talisman makers, weapon refiners, and formation masters below the fourth level.
Then he went to various blessed places to visit those who were in the former Fujian Alliance.
Under Zhu Dafu’s painstaking persuasion, most people finally agreed to sell the products from their blessed lands in Tianfu stores.
These include many Fu Xiu who are studying the Four Arts of Immortality, allowing Zhu Dafu to solve a lot of first-order supply sources at once.
After all these preparations were made, it was already half a year later.
Finally, with Ye Qingxuan's consent, Zhu Dafu used the funds from Tianfu store and upgraded the Tianfu store to a medium-sized store after paying a supplementary deposit of 1 million medium-grade spiritual stones.
After upgrading to a medium-sized store, the Tianfu store not only expanded its floor area, but also changed from the original flat floor to a two-story attic.
To this end, Zhu Dafu once again expanded the number of employees to 8 people.
Ye Qingxuan only paid silent attention to these matters and controlled some details, leaving Zhu Dafu to do the rest.
His only requirement for channels is product quality.
The reason why Tianfu shop developed is because the quality of the elixir refined by Ye Qingxuan is superior to others, and it gradually gained popularity.
Therefore, in order not to affect the reputation of the store, quality control is very important.
And in order to maintain the previous popularity, it will not be affected by store expansion.
After Ye Qingxuan expanded his store, he left a "Xuan" mark on all the products produced in Qingxuan Blessed Land.
These products with the "Xuan" mark have a special counter in the Tianfu store after the expansion, and the prices have also increased slightly.
This is to distinguish Qingxuan Blessed Land from channel products, and is also an attempt by Ye Qingxuan to create his own exclusive brand.
And in this way, as long as Qingxuan Fudi's products maintain their quality advantage, build a reputation and have regular customers.
Whether Zhu Dafu can start business in the channel will not have a big impact on Ye Qingxuan.
It would be better if Zhu Dafu succeeded, but it wouldn't hurt if he didn't succeed.
After all, Ye Qingxuan’s main expenses were the signboard of the Tianfu store, the deposit for the expansion of the Tianfu store, and the labor costs after the expansion.
Once the profits of the channel business are damaged, Ye Qingxuan will not be affected greatly. This is the main reason why Ye Qingxuan easily agreed to Zhu Dafu before.
With no need to manage the store, the two brothers Ye Zhaoheng and Ye Zhaoyu can spend more time on cultivating the four arts of immortality. They only need to take turns going to Tianfu store to deliver goods every day.
Although their talents in this area are not outstanding, under Ye Qingxuan's guidance and sufficient resources, both of them successfully made breakthroughs by the end of the year.
Ye Zhaoheng became a first-level alchemist, and Ye Zhaoyu became a first-level weapon refiner.
As for Fu Dao and Formation Dao, although they have made some progress, they have not made much breakthrough for the time being.
Time passed, and in Zhu Dafu’s busy life, this year passed quickly.
Ye Qingxuan, on the other hand, remained undisturbed by external objects and moved forward step by step according to his own rhythm.
