678 Chapter 440: Return to Solan City [3/3]



"As usual, we found no strange things."

Vale gestured to the hall not far away afterward.

"After you sent the news that you were coming to Solan City, President Windsor will be waiting for you in the next two days..."

Richard nodded.

"Did she say anything?"

"No, it's just that her expression has been sparingly solemn these past few days, and I haven't seen much of her smile."

The Crimson Moon was about to rise. As one of the top figures, the number of things she had to deal with was as many as the hair on a cow.

The old white-haired man from the Red Dragon General Store couldn't hold on any longer.

Richard no longer delved into the topic and said softly, "How's the development of the Black Sorbet in the market of Twilight City?"

Vale immediately perked up when he heard this.

"Very good!"

"Our market potential is far beyond the market. The Black Sorbet will be sold out in less than an hour as soon as we open the store for a few days!"

This product could cool down the heat and was also so cheap. The black ice cream was like a sharp knife that stabbed into the hearts of everyone in Solan City.

No one could refuse.

Eating this thing in a high-temperature environment was simply too satisfying.

Moreover, it was easy to preserve. A large pile of food for ten days to half a month wouldn't be a problem in the modern era.

Cheap, stored, effective, large quantity… With all these advantages, black ice cream quickly became the most popular product in Solan City.

There were even many shops that directly came to the Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce to buy in bulk and then sell them at a higher price. They started a buy-and-sell business.

The Violet Merchantile Association Chamber of Commerce's first product achieved perfect results with all these factors.

"Are there imitations on the market?"

Vale nodded and shook his head.

His gaze was very subtle.

"The production process of the Black Sorbet is easy. Those wizard towers with high-level spell casters can quickly produce it.

"However, they all use unique magical plants as raw materials.

"This has led to a fatal flaw–the high price.

"Of course, they also have additional attributes, but the Black Sorbet was meant to relieve the heat. That would just add to the cost.

"Besides, their production method is very inefficient. For Solan City, which has a population of nearly ten million, it is like pouring a glass of water into a desert."

Richard smiled.

The price of 20 units of resources for the Black Sorbet was to kill off those competitors.

This thing is easy to produce. But no one could compete with them in the market if the opponent couldn't beat their production cost.

Magic plants were top-grade treasures on the surface. Who would be willing to waste them like this?

Moreover, frost grass was a native of the underground world. They couldn't figure out how they shortly produced them.

Moreover, with such a low price, even those who could produce it would hesitate.

This kind of pricing strategy knocked the competitors off before they even entered the business.
