In the afternoon, Duan Shan He had already completed the patent registration documents, and Hu Mei Er had also finished recording the corresponding video materials. Hu Shuang 'er combined the video materials and promotional documents to form a complete sales manual, and handed an original copy to Guo Ke.
At the same time, Guo Ke sent the entire set of promotional manuals and video materials to the 1916 Union group chat simultaneously, and requested all members to send it to the respective families and friends of all the students as soon as possible.
For a moment, all the groups were in an uproar.
Especially when all the low-level cultivators saw the various enhanced attributes of the guild set, it instantly caused a huge uproar and entered a crazy reposting mode. In just one day, all kinds of questions and all kinds of pre-orders exploded in Hu Mei Er and Hu Shuang Er's sales public group. The question that was asked the most was when it would be sold.
After three days of warm-up, the sales department of the 1916 Union calculated that there were 600 orders from the Academy, 1500 orders from the Eastsea Metropolis, and 3000 orders from the major trading companies for sales outside the Eastsea Metropolis. Private custom-made products were not accepting orders for the time being. The reason was very simple.
When the overall data came out, all the members of the 1916 guild were dumbfounded. 5100 sets. 5000 Lower Spiritual Crystals per set was equivalent to 25 million Lower Spiritual Crystals. 20.4 million Lower Spiritual Crystals. What a terrifying number!
All the members of the union started crazed refining mode. Wang Zhongshuai, Fan Ding, and Li Lie were also running around to ensure the supply of raw materials. In the end, they signed a supply agreement with the seven families with a comprehensive supply of 800 sets of raw materials per day. Each family could only supply 2000 sets of raw materials per month.
At the same time, Three Hammer Zhuang was in charge of a production department with a total of 36 people. Each of them worked for four hours a day, and only 20 sets were produced each day. Duan Shanhe and Three Hammer Zhuang produced 80 sets each day, while Zhang Haoran produced 100 sets. That is, the daily shipment volume is 900 sets, so the order of 5100 sets needs 6 days of production to be completed.
After a meeting between the department heads, it was decided that the sales would begin three days later. The priority would be the orders from the Academy, followed by the orders from the East Sea Metropolis, and finally, the orders from the families. When the announcement of the official sale of the standardized equipment by the 1916 Forging Firm was made, the entire Eastsea Fortress was in an uproar. Especially when the cultivators calculated the overall increase in attack and defense attributes, it was equivalent to all low-level cultivators improving by at least half a level. The cultivators who didn't manage to order any equipment were anxious about not being able to survive, so the orders kept increasing. Meanwhile, the unaffiliated cultivators who were obviously lacking in funds began to think of ways to contact cultivators who knew members of the 1916 Union and ask if they could join the 1916 Union.
This also made the "Handsome Senior Brother" who was in charge of recruitment very busy. After the department heads 'meeting, they decided to recruit 450 members, with priority given to the new students. The remaining spots were mainly recruited from the outstanding young people of the Yun family, Zhang family, Duan family, Zhuang family, Wang family, and other families. The 1916 Union's quota was temporarily set at 500.
Three days later, the enthusiasm of the cultivators in Eastsea City reached its peak. Early in the morning, the entrance of 1916 Commercial Building was packed with people. The total number of orders had already reached 7300 sets, while only 3000 sets had been used in the past.
Of course, there should be just enough in the store, and the custom-made ones would be delivered in three days.
Just as Hu Mei Er and Hu Shuang Er announced the official opening of 1916 Trading Company and invited the Chief Armament Master of the Trading Company's R D Department, Duan Shan He, to go on stage to display the Yellow Grade, Earth Grade, and a set of Black Grade equipment to everyone, a discordant voice suddenly appeared.
An old man stood in the middle of the crowd and said, How dare a Foundation-Building Armament Master call himself the Chief? You even bragged about your equipment? I want to see how good it can be.
Although Duan Shanhe was unhappy, he did not show it. He only said calmly,""How should I address you, Fellow Daoist? Which force is he representing again? Our 1916 Trading Company's set is a high-quality product that has been approved and appraised by Donghai Academy's Weapon Refinement Hall. If you have any objections, you can give it a try.”
" Of course I know that your equipment has been appraised by Donghai Academy's Weapon Refinement Hall," the old man replied." But I'm afraid that's just a sample appraisal, right?" Such a large number of circulating products had all been appraised? Obviously not. I'm just asking for the sake of the vast number of cultivators. How do you guarantee that all your products are up to standard?”
"Besides, you're just a Foundation Building cultivator. How high can your refining level be? I'm a four-star refiner registered by the Central Province Craftsmen's Association. I can't say that all the refining products produced are flawless.”
This sentence also caused a discussion among the crowd." That's right. You're a Foundation Establishment Cultivator and the Chief. How can you guarantee the compatibility of all the products?”"Could it be that they picked out the good ones from all the products and appraised them, then sold the relatively poor ones?”
Duan Shanhe couldn't help but think of his previous experience in refining weapons. Indeed, in order to increase a single attribute, there would be differences in attributes every time he tried. However, ever since he used Haoran's formula, this difference had never appeared again. Of course, he had failed a few times before, but after Haoran's guidance, there were no such problems.
However, this standardized operation mode could be replicated, and each process was refined by a different person. The only people who understood the entire process were Hao Ran, Three Hammers, and himself. This was also why Haoran was not afraid of the secret of the formula being spread. However, this Armament Master's purpose today might be for this.
Originally, the Chief position should have been given to Haoran, but Haoran had arranged for him to be the Chief in order to make a name for himself in the East Sea Metropolis and to stabilize the Duan family's position in the city. Of course, he was also a little vain, so he gladly agreed to be the Chief.
However, he didn't expect this to happen. Just as he was thinking about these questions, the cultivator opposite him said,"See if I'm right. This Chief has nothing to say.”
Duan Shanhe was furious. He said in a low voice,""Our 1916 Trading Company has our own secret method of refining weapons, and we have applied for a patent at Donghai Academy. As the chief, I naturally know what to do.”
"As a 4-star blacksmith, you naturally know that it is impossible to discuss forging techniques in public.”
"I will only say one thing. All the attributes of the sets sold today are clear and honest.”
"If Fellow Daoist doesn't believe me, you can randomly check any of the equipment sold by our trading firm to see if there is any problem with the attributes being inconsistent. My trading company will pay ten times for the leave."
As soon as he said this, most of the cultivators nodded and said,"It seems that the 1916 Trading Company is very confident. It shouldn't be wrong. After all, they are all cultivators of the school. In the East Province, we don't talk about Armament Master certification. The academy certification is the most authoritative.”
"It's just that there are very few products from the school. Most of them are custom-made equipment through connections. A set like this has never appeared before.”
Another cultivator said," But what this old man said is also the truth. Let's see if this old refiner checks to see if there are any inconsistent attributes or defective products. If he really can't find any problems, it's a good thing for everyone. In the future, when you buy equipment, you can just directly look for the 1916 Trading Company.”
At this time, Hu Mei Er had already reported the general situation to Zhang Hao Ran through the department heads group chat. Zhang Hao Ran did not make any response, only replying that he would arrive in about fifteen minutes, and that he was only at the Zhang family of the East Sea Metropolis.
At this moment, the old man said,"There's no need for a spot check. After all, you're doing business. I don't want to make things difficult for you." As long as you can refine a few sets of your standardized products in front of everyone, if there is no difference, I will agree.”
Duan Shanhe immediately understood the other party's intentions. He wanted to obtain some secret skills of equipment refining from his own refining process, but he was unwilling to spend Spiritual Crystals to buy the patent of the school. Moreover, the patent owner had to agree to buy the patent.
However, refining equipment in front of everyone clearly fell into the old man's trap. Just as he was hesitating.
"Senior Brother Shanhe, Master sent me here to check on today's sales." A clear voice sounded. Has the order been placed? Don't let everyone wait for too long."
Everyone in the trading firm was delighted to know that Zhang Haoran had arrived. Now that the entire guild had Zhang Haoran as the core, everyone had a feeling that as long as Haoran was around, there was nothing that could not be resolved.
Duan Shanhe was also delighted, but he did not show any emotion on his face.""Junior Brother, the equipment is ready. However, a fellow daoist raised a personal opinion and asked us to explain it.”
"Oh, which fellow daoist?" Zhang Haoran asked calmly. But Armament Master? Is it because you want to learn a thing or two from my trading company?”
Everyone heard that this disciple was honest. His words were soft but tough. He had exposed the other party's scheme. They wanted to see how to solve it.
The old man didn't avoid it and said with a smile,""So it's a disciple from the main peak of the academy. May I ask who you are, Master?”
"Are you a four-star registered refiner of the Central Province Craftsmen's Association?”
"That's right," replied the old man proudly.
" I'm Zhang Haoran, a disciple of the main peak of Donghai Academy," Zhang Haoran said." Today is the opening day of my senior brother's business. I won't mention my master's name, lest people say that I'm acting in his name."”
"But the level of the Central Province's Armament Masters doesn't seem very professional after hearing what you said. It would be a joke if a few mid to low-grade sets could not be refined to the standard of a standard product.”
As a 4-star blacksmith, he should be able to tell with a single glance whether the attributes of the equipment sold by our trading firm were different. Could it be that he was deliberately making things difficult for us today?
