Heaven-defying? Were these effects considered heaven-defying?
But Qin Fan knew his understanding was not on the sa wavelength as these worldly mortals and couldn’t be bothered to explain further. He simply chuckled and said, "Not only that, but it wouldn’t be a problem for a sixty-year-old to maintain the appearance of a thirty-four-year-old! Alright, you’ve eaten and you’ve drunk. You should have a pretty good idea of what’s going on by now. I just want to ask, if this water and these fruits were to be sold, could the two of you find the sales channels?"
The mont Qin Fan’s nonchalant words ca out, Ma Yunbin and Ye Jizu were stunned.
"Master Qin, this fruit and water... you, you... how much do you have?"
They had originally assud that these incredible products, which they had already dubbed Divine Water and Divine Fruit, would certainly be in limited supply. Who would have thought Qin Fan was actually talking about selling them comrcially and asking them to find the channels? To use sales channels, just how large would the supply have to be?
"As much as you want," he uttered the words lightly.
But that simple phrase nearly frightened Ye Jizu and Ma Yunbin out of their wits.
As much as you want? Are you kidding ?! Does he really think this is like the cheap fruit and well water you can buy anywhere?
"Master Qin, you’re not joking, are you? These divine items with such heaven-defying effects... you have as much as we need?"
Ma Yunbin had actually wanted to say that it was impossible, but when he rembered he was talking to Qin Fan, he managed to swallow the words back down.
"I’m not joking. As long as you can procure ordinary fruit, I have a way to make it produce this effect. Alright, enough chitchat. I want to use these things to make money. Do you have the channels or not?" Qin Fan said calmly, as if discussing sothing trivial.
"Of course, we do! Once these divine items are on the market and people learn of their miraculous effects, finding channels will be no problem at all! The question is, Master Qin, what price do you plan to set, and which social class are you targeting?" Ma Yunbin said, rushing to speak before Ye Jizu, his face flushing with excitent.
Although Qin Fan hadn’t said it outright, a man of his intelligence could guess that Qin Fan hadn’t brought them here rely to find sales channels. It was highly likely he intended for them to get a piece of the action.
What would it an if they could really get on board this divine ship?
As Ma Yunbin pondered this, his body began to tremble.
If this is really happening, then the day I return to Four-nine City in a kingly manner is not far off. It’s certainly not far off!
"Target the rich and powerful. The fruit will be 10,000 a kilogram, and the water 10,000 a bottle, 500 milliliters per bottle," Qin Fan said, holding up one finger. He looked at the two of them, his expression perfectly calm, as if he were discussing sothing utterly insignificant.
Ten thousand for a kilogram of fruit and ten thousand for a bottle of water. Instead of shocking Ma Yunbin and Ye Jizu, these prices made them exclaim in unison an utterly insane phrase, "So cheap?"
"It’s reasonable. This price is suitable for gift-giving. If we set it at 100,000, the cost of giving it as a gift would be too high. I forgot to tell you, to truly maintain a youthful appearance and extend one’s lifespan beyond one hundred years, one must drink it every single day. Eating more or less fruit, or even none at all, doesn’t matter, but the water must be consud daily. By that calculation, the annual cost for one person would be at least three million, so this price should be fairly easy to accept. Besides, from a basic psychological standpoint, for the old money and the nouveau riche who have cash to burn, is one bottle a day really enough?" Qin Fan said with a hearty laugh.
Yes, Huaxia had no shortage of wealthy people. However, if the price were set any higher, the number of people who could afford it would be limited. Ye Jizu and Ma Yunbin were so srized by the heaven-defying effects that they hadn’t considered sales volu. Qin Fan, on the other hand, didn’t just want a high price; he needed high volu. If the price were 100,000, there would still be no shortage of buyers, but how many could accept a 100,000 price tag? In comparison, the number of buyers who could accept a price of 10,000 would be at least ten tis greater. All things considered, a price of 10,000 would generate far more profit than a price of 100,000.
"That’s more than easy to accept! With a hundred million, you could drink for twenty or thirty years!" Ma Yunbin imdiately chid in.
"You’re overlooking one issue. Even if it can grant longevity and make one immune to all poisons, at the end of the day, it is still just water and fruit," Qin Fan said, shaking his head.
Hearing this, Ye Jizu and Ma Yunbin froze. After a mont, they both broke into awkward smiles. Qin Fan was right. No matter how you looked at it, it was just a 500-milliliter bottle of water and a kilogram of fruit. Pricing it at 10,000 was, in fact, a balanced price—neither too high nor too low.
"Hehe, Master Qin, I just got carried away by the excitent and didn’t think it through," Ma Yunbin replied with a sheepish, awkward laugh.
"In that case, both gift-givers and receivers will be much safer in the future! Without a doubt, this Divine Water and Divine Fruit becoming the ultimate gift is bound to be the next big trend! By the way, Master Qin, one more question. Do this Divine Water and Divine Fruit have any sort of expiration date?" Ye Jizu said aningfully, finally raising a question they had almost overlooked.
"There is no expiration date, nor is one needed. Even after a hundred years, it won’t spoil," Qin Fan declared emphatically.
What a joke. Nourished by Pure Spirit Energy, they would only get fresher over ti. Spoil? What nonsense was that!
"No expiration date? Th-this... I... Holy crap!" At that mont, hearing Qin Fan’s resounding tone, even Ye Jizu couldn’t help but let a curse slip out. He continued, "Master Qin, based on the fact that there’s no expiration date alone, I dare to give you a military pledge! Within one year, I guarantee a minimum of thirty billion in revenue—guaranteed!"
"Thirty billion? Old Ye, for the Fourth Young Master of the great Ye Family and the patriarch of Lingnan, you’re not being ambitious enough. Are your connections and channels really that limited? Haha, Master Qin, a fifty billion guarantee!" Ma Yunbin declared, thumping his chest.
"Alright, do your best. I’ll give you each fifteen percent of the shares," Qin Fan said, nodding with a light chuckle.
Fifteen percent of the shares? Good heavens!
Ma Yunbin and Ye Jizu had guessed that Qin Fan wouldn’t treat them poorly. But fifteen percent of the shares? They were flabbergasted, truly and utterly flabbergasted! This involved profits calculated in the tens of billions.
"Master Qin, this... this is too much!"
Ye Jizu wanted to say more, but Qin Fan cut him off with a shake of his head. "No one turns their back on money. To act coy now would just be hypocritical."
"Thank you, Master Qin!" Hearing this, Ma Yunbin’s face imdiately lit up with wild elation.
"Well... thank you, Master Qin!" His old face flushing slightly, Ye Jizu didn’t dare to feign reluctance any longer. As he finished speaking, he suddenly rembered sothing and quickly asked, "Oh, right, Master Qin, what should we na this Divine Water and Divine Fruit?"
"Spirit Water No. 1, Spirit Fruit No. 1. As for the packaging and design, you two can handle that," Qin Fan replied directly, without much thought.
BOOM!
BANG!
BANG! BANG!
However, just as Qin Fan’s voice fell, a series of explosions suddenly erupted outside No. 1 Villa, the blasts shaking the entire mountainside. At the sa ti, a drone—the kind available for purchase on Taobao—flew rapidly toward No. 1 Villa amidst the booming noises.
