Chapter 65: Crazy resource merchants! Pulling people into the group!

【Great Qin Luo, your suggestion is excellent. I have also been worried about the price of Red Iron dropping. Even if it drops by just a little Energy, that's a loss of several hundred Energy points in a single day!】

【That's right, I've been keeping an eye on the market trends. There are clearly dozens of times more merchants selling Red Iron today than yesterday. A price drop is inevitable!】

【As a merchant who only started selling Red Iron today, I have the most say. When I first started selling, I knew nothing about the market price. I sold one unit of Red Iron for only three Energy points, thinking the price was high. It was only later, after I looked into the market trends, that I realized I had lost a fortune!】

【The person above, you really dare to say that. It's people like you who ruin the market price, making it impossible for me to sell at a high price!】

【I support Great Qin Luo's idea. This is nothing but beneficial for us merchants selling Red Iron!】

【I agree too!】

【Me too.】

【But unifying the metal price isn't that easy. How can we do it with just us?】

【...】

After Qin Luo finished speaking, he kept watching the thoughts and opinions of the other lords.

The result was about what he had expected; all the lords supported Qin Luo's idea, and no one opposed it.

【Everyone, quiet down and listen to me!】

【Someone just said it very correctly: relying only on us, it is impossible to unify the market price.】

【Therefore, this requires our collective effort!】

【The first step is to unite all the merchants. Now, everyone follow my lead: constantly add other merchants as friends, pull them into the group chat, instill our ideas into them, and get everyone on the same front to form a community of shared interests!】

【Once this step is completed, we can then attempt to control the market's shipment volume and price!】

【Here, I can guarantee to you all that everyone will definitely benefit from this, and might even sell at a higher price!】

Qin Luo said.

As soon as his statement ended, many lords began to speak up.

【No problem, leave this to us. After all, if we want to enjoy the benefits, we have to put in some effort, right!】

【I know a few lords who sell Red Iron resources; I'll pull them into the group immediately!】

【I'm going too. I'll go leave crazy messages and add them as friends!】

【I have one more question: is it really possible to sell Red Iron at a higher price? @Qin Luo 131415】

【Qin Luo 131415: Of course. Do you think I would lie to you? These are screenshots of my trades with other lords. You can look closely: the average transaction price for Red Iron is seven Energy points per unit, far higher than the five Energy points on the market! (Image jpg) (Image jpg) (Image jpg)】

Qin Luo directly threw out several transaction records with Transcendental Lords.

And his series of actions directly caused the entire group to explode!

You have to know, the Red Iron price they were selling at was only five Energy points per unit!

Qin Luo's price was a full two Energy points higher than theirs!

This was a very significant price difference!

It's fine if the quantity is small.

But if it were a quantity of one thousand units, that's a price difference of two thousand Energy points!

If it were ten thousand units, that would be a full twenty thousand Energy points difference!

Furthermore, most of the lords in the group had stable sources of Red Iron and could sell steadily.

Over time, this would be an astronomical figure!

【A big shot is truly a big shot; he really is not simple!】

【That's right, I always felt that the price of five Energy points was already very astonishing. Who would have thought it could actually sell for seven Energy points!】

【It's not just that. Look at some of the screenshots; some are barter trades, like one for Black Iron Grade Magic Crystal. If you calculate it based on the market price of Black Iron Grade Magic Crystal, the price of one unit of Red Iron is equivalent to eight Energy points!】

【Can we also sell at such a high price?】

【Qin Luo 131415: Of course you can. Do you think I would lie to you? This is still under the condition that the market price hasn't been unified. If it were unified, I guarantee everyone will earn even more than now!】

【Then I want to be like Great Qin Luo too!】

【Enough talk, I'm going to add other merchants as friends!】

【I'm going too!】

【Everyone do it together; this is something that benefits everyone!】

It has to be said, the power of these few pictures from Qin Luo was immense!

Seeing Qin Luo making money, everyone was incredibly envious and jealous; they naturally wanted to be like Qin Luo too!

Therefore, there was no need for Qin Luo to continue mobilizing; the enthusiasm of all the lords was instantly raised to the maximum!

Especially seeing that Qin Luo could sell Red Iron at the high price of seven Energy points, others naturally were not willing to fall behind.

Since you, Qin Luo, can sell one unit of Red Iron for seven Energy points, then we can too!

"Sure enough, once they see huge benefits, everyone is full of motivation; there is no need to urge them at all!"

Qin Luo smiled.

Now there was no need to brainwash these lords anymore; they would spontaneously act according to Qin Luo's ideas and spread the philosophy of the Resource Trade Alliance to all merchants!

This was a good start!

Once the scale of the Resource Trade Alliance expanded and it won over, if not all, then at least more than half of the lords, unifying the price would be easy.

Even those lords who didn't join the trade alliance, seeing that the price of Red Iron remained high, would naturally not lower their prices to sell. After all, doing so would damage their own interests.

As for whether all lords could sell one unit of Red Iron for seven or eight Energy points like Qin Luo, that would depend on their own abilities!

After all, a large part of the reason Qin Luo's Red Iron could sell for such a high price was that the buyers were all Transcendental Lords, none of whom lacked Energy points. Even if they didn't have many Energy points on hand, they had other resources to exchange.

【Everyone, pull as many other merchants into the group chat as possible!】

【Secondly, reduce the sale of Red Iron on the market. If that really doesn't work, you can do as I did and pull the Red Iron price up to ten Energy points per unit!】

【Once the number of merchants in the group exceeds ten thousand, we will start attempting to unify the market price and sell Red Iron at the same price to protect everyone's interests!】

After Qin Luo finished speaking, he closed the group chat regardless of whether the other lords had replied.

Pulling people in was something Qin Luo no longer needed to do himself!

"The Resource Trade Alliance is initially established; the next step is to find a way to increase my fame!"

Qin Luo pondered.

Like Ouyang Guan, becoming famous in a very short time and accumulating a large wave of popularity was what led to a large number of lords purchasing the paid posts he published!

Therefore, the importance of popularity is self-evident; it is truly possible to turn fame into resources!

Just like celebrities and brand effects, the higher the popularity, the easier it is to make money!

If Qin Luo were just an ordinary merchant, no different from other merchants, then under the condition of the same price, he would have no competitiveness, and certainly not many people would buy from him.

Unlike other merchant lords, the 'Barren Land' where his territory was located was not truly barren; there were unknown amounts of mineral deposits buried underground, and the future shipment volume of various metal ores would definitely be very large.

If he didn't have enough fame and popularity, his goods might not sell at all!

And as the initiator of the Resource Trade Alliance, it was even more impossible for Qin Luo to smash his own signboard and take the initiative to lower prices to sell!

Only by being one step ahead can one earn a full pot of gold.

While other resource merchants began pulling people into groups, striving toward the great ideal of a unified resource price, and looking forward to making a fortune.

Qin Luo was already planning the second and third steps!
