Divine Convenience Store Chapter 127 Day 8 Completed

[Day 8 Evaluation: Excellent]

[Sales Summary: 403 Transactions – Revenue: 11302 Interdiate-grade Spirit Stones]

[Betting Stall Revenue: 545 Interdiate-grade Spirit Stones

[Rewards: 15 Spirit Stones to Personal Balance for both Shopkeeper and Assistant, 10 Spirit Stones for the Staff]

[Tier Progression: Thriving Store (21868/1000000), Golden Card Patron (9/20)]

Despite feeling like the number of custors that stepped inside the store was less than yesterday, the transactions and revenue still climbed up a bit. On top of that, the number of Golden Card Patrons increased by 2.

Those were the Poison Demon Cult High Priest and the Elder from the Lightning Athyst Sect. They both spent a fortune on their purchases and those who ca with them also made their own purchases.

But thinking about it, The 2500 from the revenue ca from Lin Mo himself as the manuals he bought through his Personal Balance got counted in sales. In the end, he beca the biggest spender today.

"Look, Boss! We're at 5 digits already. It won't be long before we reach the next tier." Liu Xiaoyu excitedly exclaid as she looked at the evaluation window too.

"You know, Xiaoyu, I like your optimism. Keep that up."

"Ehehe. But, of course. 2% just after a day is sothing else. It will continuously build up every passing day. Do you know how many spirit stones the City Lord has in the City's Treasury? It will be enough to bring us to the next tier if he spends it all on our store. Only the disciples and city guards have limited spirit stone resources but the old fogeys should've amassed wealth for all the years they spent cultivating. Even the 15,000 high-grade spirit stones that the Pavilion Master offered you to buy the store wouldn't make a dent in the vast fortune of the Verdant Sky Pavilion."

Once again, Liu Xiaoyu's knowledge about the financials of these cultivator factions left Lin Mo both amused and impressed.

"You're surprisingly well-inford about everyone's wealth, Xiaoyu. Should I be worried that you have a side job as a spy?" He joked.

"Nah, Boss. I'm just a professional assistant who knows how to estimate the spending power of our potential VIPs. A shopkeeper has to know his custors, and a genius assistant like has to know who's got the fattest wallets."

Lin Mo shook his head. He could accept that answer. After all, she's always strangely too knowledgeable about things like this. She could even recognize a disguised Sect Master of the White Ember Sect.

Whatever the secret behind her lineage is… he won't pry on that and just wait until the young woman tells him about it.

"Yu Qingyan's first trip as our Official Distributor should bring us 5000 high-grade spirit stones if she managed to sell everything. That's another 5% of the progress. Still, it will take a long ti before we get another branch."

"Oh! If we get another branch, can I be the one to manage it, Boss?"

"Well, who else will I send there? It's not like I have a clone. Or maybe… Taihao or the system will clone ?"

"Ugh. Two Boss Lin? I can't imagine it. I have to stop you from hogging all the glory!"

"Then you better show Taihao and Lihua how capable you are. When will you reach Foundation Establishnt anyway?"

"Co on, Boss. I can't just simply reach it because I want to. I'm only at the 8th level. Two more before the peak. Besides, it's called the Foundation Establishnt Stage because a cultivator needs to be very careful in tackling it. If you form a weak foundation, you'll never reach Immortal Ascension! And I'm a prodigy. Having a Perfect Foundation should be the minimum I aim for!"

Lin Mo couldn't help but chuckle at her confidence. "Yeah. Yeah. A prodigy, huh? I don't think prodigies spend their days selling potato chips and soda to cultivators." Discover more stories at My Virtual Library Empire

Liu Xiaoyu gasped, clutching her chest as if she had taken a fatal blow. "Boss! How could you say that? I am helping you revolutionize the cultivation world through strategic snack distribution! You wouldn't have gotten this far without !"

"I never said you weren't helpful," Lin Mo smirked as he began flipping through the [Crimson Flow Phantom Steps] manual. "Just pointing out that you're a very… unique kind of prodigy. Mhm. Good job. I'm in awe of you."

Liu Xiaoyu proudly put her hands on her hips as she nodded, "That's true. You won't find another genius like anywhere, Boss. You should never let go."

"Sure. I'll make you my assistant manager even after you beco an immortal."

"Hey! That's not what I'm saying!"

The two continued their banter until Yangyang and Xiao Ya called for them to dinner.

Then for the rest of the night, they once again focused on their cultivation.

Having reached the peak of the Spirit Gathering Stage, Lin Mo was looking into breaking through to the Spirit Condensation Stage but according to Liu Xiaoyu, he needed to comprehend a core cultivation technique first that would help him condense his spiritual energy.

—

A few miles southeast of Fanling City stood the Red Lotus Academy, a prestigious institution where nobles from the Southern Wu Kingdom typically sent their children to cultivate skills and learn professions that would benefit their fiefs.

In one of the offices designated for professors, Grandmaster Lian spent the entire night studying the recordings of the Celestial Duel Platform Alpha Test, which featured performances by the Shopkeeper Lin Mo and his assistant Liu Xiaoyu.

She hadn't visited the store the previous day because she had imdiately begun researching the talismans she had purchased from there two days ago.

She only checked the Store Bulletin Board occasionally using her Viewing Jade to look for new announcents. After spending the entire afternoon locked in her research chamber, she was only able to catch the announcent Lin Mo made during her break at night.

As she played the recording, the enchanting Celestial Duel Platform captivated her completely. She was sure that the cards Lin Mo and Liu Xiaoyu used for it were yet another innovation stemming from the Summoning Card Talismans.

As an educator and a grandmaster of talisman crafting, she could see the potential of it.

"Shopkeeper Lin called it as re entertainnt but it can be more than that. Those obnoxious noble students can be reford by introducing it to them!"

With that thought in mind, she soon scrolled down to leave a comnt under it.

ScarletTalisman: "This is so impressive! Boss Lin! Can I show this footage to the Headmaster of my Academy?"

After clicking send, she read the comnts of the other Golden Patrons.

MistyRain: "I missed watching this in person! Good job taking my suggestion and turning it into this entertaining product, Shopkeeper. I can't wait to try it when it's released."

Comnts:

- CrimsonDaisy: "Your suggestion? Hah! MistyRain, stop making up stories."

- MistyRain: "You can ask Shopkeeper, vixen. Anyway, I'll be out for a few days but I can monitor the happenings in the store through this. Don't do anything funny, CrimsonDaisy!"

UnrivaledGale: "Those Celestial Beast Units are so cool! The Celestial Idol Units are so pretty! They are perfect for a genius like ! I'll buy card packs and complete both sets when they are released!"

EmberAlchemist: "I must say, it is impressive. The illusory inscriptions are truly out of the ordinary. When will one of the divine beings behind the store hold their lecture? I must attend to be enlightened with their godly craftsmanship."

Grandmaster Lian scoured for any useful information but as it turned out, they're not as keen as her when it cos to those talismans.

With a sigh, she turned off the Viewing Jades and started scribbling on sothing, listing the advantages and disadvantages of the Celestial Duel Platform in case she introduced it to the Red Lotus Academy.

Grandmaster Lian tapped her brush against the inkstone, deep in thought.

The Celestial Duel Platform had clear benefits. It encouraged strategic thinking, honed battle instincts, and introduced innovative ways to utilize talismans.

More importantly, it could captivate students who lacked the patience for traditional studies.

The biggest concern was whether the Headmaster and other professors would accept it. The Red Lotus Academy prided itself on classical cultivation thods, and many elders were resistant to new innovations.

"But if I can demonstrate its value properly…" She murmured as her eyes glead with determination.

She quickly jotted down key points:

[Engagent & Learning]: The Platform could act as an educational tool, training students in formations, spiritual energy control, and combat techniques in a safe environnt.

[Competitive Edge]: The academy could host tournants, fostering rivalries that push students to improve.

[Revenue Stream]: If implented properly, they could even set up their own Celestial Duel Platform stages, charging participants while training them.

A sly smile crept onto her lips. If the academy adopts this, I will gain full control over its implentation.

That ans… I will have a direct link to Shopkeeper Lin's store and to the countless divine-grade talismans that they may sell as a product!

Grandmaster Lian stood abruptly as she rolled up the parchnt.

"I'll draft a formal proposal. But first… I need to convince the Headmaster."
