Needless to say, there were quite a lot of people lining up, the line had stretched from inside the store to outside the store, and even turned a corner on the street.
Goatbeard saw this scene, but he was not panicked at all——
Why are you in such a hurry? Are you worried that the pills won't be
sold out? That's 100,000 crystal stones. Except for a few people, even if others can afford it, they will be as exhausted as you are. How can they just buy it?
Although there are many people here, most of them are definitely here to wait and see, but it doesn't mean that they will definitely buy it if they line up.
Goatbeard thought that he could wait until the storm died down before bargaining, such as tonight, or in two days. By then, the shopkeeper would certainly not be as tough as he is now.
It was boring to just wait like this, and he couldn't see what was going on inside at all. So the man with the goatee looked around and went to a teahouse across the street, intending to wait while drinking tea.
Although he didn't plan to buy it now, he had to watch the crowds disperse and the sales volume drop!
He ordered tea, but before the snacks were served, he almost choked.
"What's going on??"
He stood up suddenly and looked across in confusion.
For some unknown reason, a waiter from Xianlaifang across the street came out and said something to the people queuing, and those people seemed stunned after hearing it.
They seemed to ask something out loud, the waiter spread his hands, and those people dispersed in twos and threes in disappointment.
In such a short time, the monks who were queuing outside and watching the excitement had dispersed!
What happened? What did the waiter say to them?
Goatee was indeed happy to see everyone disperse and no one buy, but the current situation was clearly not like that, because the waiter was looking for people in front, and everyone dispersed behind.
"Oh, I'm a step late. I'm so angry!"
Two male cultivators entered the teahouse, shaking their heads in frustration.
"If we had known earlier, we would have come here in the middle of the night." another person sighed.
The man with the goatee's eyes lit up because he saw that these two people were the ones who came out of the Xianlaifang team.
"My two fellow Taoists, what happened just now? Why aren't you lining up?" The man with the goat beard stepped forward and asked.
"Well, you would never guess that, the breakthrough pill is sold out!" The male cultivator did not hide it and turned to explain to him.
Goatee:!
His eyes almost popped out of his head.
"What? Sold out?" He was stunned. "Are you talking about the Breakthrough Pills that cost 100,000 each?"
"That's right! It's this! It's only been a short while and the pills are already sold out. I'm so pissed." The male cultivator shook his head and sighed, feeling very regretful. "I just regret that we came too late, otherwise we would definitely have a share!"
"How come they are sold out? Weren't they just on sale this morning?" Goatee couldn't believe it.
"It was indeed sold this morning, but the quantity is so small! Xianlaifang said that there are only 20 pieces in total."
There were only twenty pieces, which was far from enough for the people to queue up. No wonder they were sold out in a short while.
The goateed man was dumbfounded.
"By the way, fellow Taoist, I see that you seem to have come very early. You haven't bought anything yet?" The male cultivator had a slight impression of him and asked in confusion.
Goatee blushed, "I... hesitated for a moment and didn't buy it."
"That's a shame. We asked the guy when the next batch of pills would arrive, but he said he didn't know either, but it would take at least a month at the earliest."
The two men sat down after talking, leaving only the man with goatee standing there in a daze.
There were many people like him who didn't react.
The new elixir is so expensive. Except for those who are in urgent need or have no shortage of money, others will have to think carefully before buying it.
Who knew that before I could finish thinking, the pill was gone!
This made many people regret it. If they had known this, they would not have hesitated and should have bought it directly!
What happened in Xianlaifang was quickly spread by the monks who witnessed it, so many people in the outer city also heard about it: the price of the breakthrough pill was as high as 100,000, but even so, it was sold out soon after it was put on sale. Many people went there in vain!
As for the next batch of pills, it will take more than a month to get them again!
"Oh my god, is it selling so fast?"
"What do you think? This has the dual effects of the Golden Elixir and the Purifying Heart Elixir. It's just that I don't have money, otherwise I would definitely buy it if I saw it."
"Aren't you afraid that this is a fake and the elixir has no effect at all?"
"That's impossible. It's just a small sect. How can they have the guts to deceive? If it's really a fake, then the sect will probably be destroyed!"
Most of the people who bought the elixirs today are either rich or noble, with high backgrounds, and can't be provoked at all.
And everyone also heard that everyone who bought the Breakthrough Pill today was given a token with the purchase number on it.
If it's a fake, there's no need to go through all this trouble.
"That's true, but we'll soon know whether it's fake or not. Those who bought the pills will tell us about the effects after using them."
"That's right, if it proves to be effective, then we should grab a piece of the pie from behind!"
At this time, everyone in the Xianlai Sect breathed a sigh of relief after learning that the pills had been sold out successfully.
"Fortunately, everything went well and there was no unsold goods." Du Yue was almost sweating.
"How could such a treasure be unsalable? Senior Sister Du, you underestimate those rich people." Meng Ling said with a smile.
"Yes, Junior Sister Du, this elixir is thanks to you." Yi Xingyun said.
Of course, there is also the junior sister's.
"One pill costs one hundred thousand, twenty pills would be two million... I'm rich." Mu Xue smiled foolishly like a money-grubber.
In the past, when they brothers went out to find a job to make money, they worked in the wind and rain, but they could only earn dozens of crystals a day, sometimes even less, and most of the time, what they earned was not enough to cover their daily expenses.
Now let's look at it. Just selling a batch of pills cost two million. The main ingredient, the Tianyanxiang mushroom, was dug up from the back mountain, so it's quite low in terms of cost.
But the price is so high not because they want to make some dirty money, but because this thing has to be priced that high.
Otherwise, if the price is set too low, Huajindan will be put under pressure and have no chance of survival, which will shake the interests of countless people.
Moreover, if the Tianyanxiang mushroom is not obtained for free but purchased with money, the actual cost will increase sharply.
Moreover, the research and development cost of the new pill formula is also a cost. We cannot pretend that it does not exist just because they took shortcuts in this regard. This is the rule in the market.
"This batch has been sold out. When do you plan to bring out the next batch?" Ji Qingqing asked.
"Let's tentatively schedule it for a month. We'll see how everyone responds to this one, so there's no rush." Xu Yihan said, "The most important thing right now is that we have to prevent anyone from breaking into our sect."
"Master, are you saying that we should prevent someone from breaking in and stealing the pills?" Liu Feng agreed.
"Well, a small sect like ours has created such a pill. There must be many people who want to take advantage of it." Xu Yihan nodded, "We must hold them off for one month."
