Chapter 193: The price increase is due
However, just by reducing the number of rune arrows, the two disadvantages are eliminated, and the spirit stones that can be earned are much less.
Thinking of this, Chen De felt that he had touched the balance between cultivation and wealth generation.
It's simple, this thought flashed in my heart: there are fewer rune arrows sold, and fewer spirit stones are earned, that is under the condition that the price remains the same, if the price of rune arrows is increased, then the number of spirit stones earned, under the same number of sales, the number of spirit stones earned will be a lot more.
That's right, the interconnection and restriction of price and quantity is the balance I am looking for!
Chen De's brow finally fully relaxed.
Gong Xianliang, who had been sitting on the side, saw Senior Brother Chen sitting there thinking as if he was in a meditation, the expression on his face was constantly changing, and he knew that this different junior brother sometimes had some unexpected actions.
He sat aside with great interest, waiting for the outcome of Chen De's thoughts.
Because ordinary rune arrows, flame burst rune arrows, and ice rune arrows are still unique to Debao Zhai, the degree between their price and quantity can be completely controlled by themselves.
That's wonderful.
If it is something else, others can make * repair supplies, the degree between price and quantity is determined by the market, basically it is difficult to influence yourself.
For example, Chen De can also make * rune paper and runes himself, that is, he can only rely on the quality of his own rune paper and runes to make small changes in price.
Since you can grasp the degree and what you can control, you should make good use of it.
Chen De felt that he was very straightforward about the upcoming price adjustment, that is, the price increase.
Chen De finally sorted out his thoughts completely. said to Gong Xianliang, who had been sitting on the side: "Senior Brother Gong, the prices of Debao Zhai's ordinary rune arrows, flame burst rune arrows, and ice rune arrows will all increase. ”
It turned out that he had been thinking about it for so long, and he was weighing whether the price of Debao Zhai's unique talisman soldiers would increase, Gong Xianliang smiled and asked, "Then, Senior Brother Chen, how much are you going to increase for each one?"
Yes, how much to rise, this is also a degree, must be grasped, if not grasped well, the adverse impact on Debao Zhai in the future is also great, how to price it?
Chen De pondered again.
From the perspective of a buyer, Gong Xianliang understands the mentality of the buyer quite well, and he said: "Senior Brother Chen, if a shop often raises its price, it will undoubtedly make the monks who patronize it very uncomfortable. ”
His words clearly reminded Chen Tak that no one likes a store that always raises prices, even if the store's things are popular, if they keep lowering prices, it is a different matter.
Since this is to be taken into account, it would be good to simply raise the price to a suitable price level at one time.
For the Flame Burst Talisman Arrow and the Flame Ice Talisman Arrow, since someone is willing to pay the price of a hundred spirit stones, there should be a lot of room for price increases.
However, if one hundred spirit stones were mentioned, it would be too greedy.
At that time, someone offered the price of a hundred spirit stones, which should have been urgent, so he did not hesitate to pay such a high price.
According to Gong Xianliang's suggestion, doubling the price is forty spirit stones, which is still quite a lot away from one hundred spirit stones, and the control of the degree is too loose. Then add ten more spirit stones.
Thinking of this, Chen De set the price of the Flame Burst Talisman Arrow and the Flame Ice Rune Arrow, and said to Gong Xianliang: "I am going to set the price of the Flame Burst Talisman Arrow and the Flame Ice Rune Arrow at fifty spirit stones. ”
After Gong Xianliang heard Chen De's pricing for the Flame Explosion Rune Arrow and the Ice Rune Arrow, he also summed it up in his heart.
In the same way, he also used the price of one hundred spirit stones as the highest price. If you compare this price, fifty spirit stones will not seem high, and the price of forty spirit stones will allow Debao Zhai to earn more.
Thinking about it like this, Gong Xianliang also felt that this price was more appropriate, so he nodded slightly.
Chen De continued to say to Gong Xianliang: "Ordinary rune arrows, I decided to set the price at twenty spirit stones. ”
Now the beast hunting team of the Tiantai Sect's Zhan Zhi Realm monks has taken ordinary talisman arrows as a necessity for hunting beasts.
The beast hunting team that saves some often uses one or two runic arrows to severely damage the demon beast, and then a group of people rush up to beat the demon beast, and finally kill the demon beast with spells.
This has almost become a fixed beast hunting method for some beast hunting squads.
Therefore, the spirit stones they consumed to hunt beasts were quite small, because the cost of one or two rune arrows was only one or twenty spirit stones.
Compared to the hundreds of dollars worth of a demon beast they hunted, or even thousands of spirit stones, it was really insignificant.
Based on this, Chen De believed that raising the price to twenty spirit stones was acceptable for the vast majority of beast hunting teams.
However, the number of ordinary rune arrows they buy* will definitely decrease.
However, in general, the number of spirit stones earned by Debao Zhai on ordinary talisman arrows may not decrease but rise.
When Gong Xianliang heard this, the price of ordinary rune arrows was raised by eight spirit stones each, and after being stunned, he asked a little puzzled: "Senior brother, why do ordinary rune arrows also have to increase their prices? Moreover, if it has risen by six or seven percent, it won't rise too much, right?"
Chen De explained with a smile: "Ordinary talisman arrows are now also unique to our Debao Zhai, and the price is up to us." The price is set low, but it is a loss of pricing power in your hands. Besides, after the price is raised, there will be fewer orders, and I will have more time to cultivate. ”
Hearing Chen De mention cultivation, Gong Xianliang remembered that after he came back from Xie Baocheng and handed over the two sets of magic tricks to himself, in order to complete the order, he was drawing talismans day and night.
It is a matter of cultivation, from the perspective of the shopkeeper, especially from the perspective of the monk, Gong Xianliang also understood the meaning of Chen De's price increase: cultivation is the first, cultivation can't go up, no matter how many spirit stones there are, it will be empty!
Gong Xianliang naturally understood Chen De's intentions, and he also said with a smile: "I understand, the price increase is due!"
The next day, Chen De went to Debao Zhai to find two shopkeepers, and informed them of the decision to raise the price in a room dedicated to deliberations.
As soon as Zhang Tingyuan heard that the price was going to rise, and the price increase was so high, he immediately objected and said: "Ade, I also watched you grow up, although you are sometimes a little naughty and playful, you are actually a sincere person. Now that you have cultivated and opened a shop, how can you raise the price so high in order to earn more spirit stones, and let people scold us profiteers!"
After all, Zhang Tingyuan lacked business experience, and he was not a cultivator, so he didn't understand the twists and turns between the monk's cultivation and earning spirit stones, so he couldn't understand Chen De's decision to raise the price, and he was very close to Chen De, so he didn't need to speak politely.
Zhang Tingyuan's words made Chen De slightly embarrassed.
When Dai Anxian heard Chen De's decision to raise the price, he was also surprised.
Because, although he has been taking care of the business for the original owner for many years, most of their previous price increases are due to the increase in the purchase price of goods, so the price is adjusted, and the percentage of the general price increase is not high, that is, one percent, one and a half, two percent, so as to increase the price.
Like now, there has never been a price increase of one and a half times, six or seven percent, and it is rare to hear of it.
Could it be that the excessively young little proprietor in front of him is a madman who wants to earn spirit stones, or is it because he is too young and his brain is about to burn out to make such an astonishing decision?
With this thought, Diane decided to remain silent, and he sat quietly, his eyes fixed on the floor in front of him.
Chen De turned his head to look at Dai Anxian and saw that he was expressionless and didn't want to speak.
Chen De estimated that the second treasurer, who had more experience in business and knew more about the world of monks, could not understand his decision.
He settled down and thought about how to phrase it.
He started by referring to the argument of pricing power. As soon as they heard the words "pricing power", the expressions of the two elders in the room were moved.
Because, this is a relatively new statement for them.
As for what Chen De said, holding the pricing power, he can naturally make good use of it, Dai Anxian, who has been up and down in the business world for many years, heard it and felt quite reasonable, so he nodded. For Shicai, he thought that the little owner's brain was about to burn, and he had a little apology in his heart.
Then, Chen De began to explain that in the eyes of the monks, the importance of cultivation and spiritual stones, and why wealth is the first priority in the "wealth and law".
With this explanation, Dian, who had dealt with monks for decades, immediately understood.
If the pricing power is combined with the cultivation that the small proprietor values the most, in order to ensure the cultivation time, and also take into account the need to earn spirit stones to assist in cultivation, then the best way to deal with it is to raise the price.
As soon as Dai Anxian figured it out, he nodded frequently, and began to help Chen De, because Zhang Tingyuan didn't have a deep understanding of the world of monks, so Zhang Tingyuan hadn't turned a corner yet.
Under the explanation of the two of them in turn, Zhang Tingyuan also understood that the most important thing for monks is cultivation, and the ultimate purpose of earning spirit stones is to prepare for improving cultivation.
After the three of them unified their views, the next arrangement was smoother.
First of all, the orders for ordinary rune arrows that have been received are still delivered at the original price.
And from now on, when receiving an order for a new ordinary talisman arrow, the price is twenty spirit stones, if the other party accepts, place an order, if not, then you have to give up.
The number of orders for ordinary rune arrows that are expected to be given up may be quite large, and it is precisely because of this that Chen De will be able to spare more time in the future for the most important thing, which is cultivation.
Secondly, Chen De handed over more than ninety new rune soldiers to Zhang Tingyuan.
However, what Chen De means is not to put it out for sale first, but to leave it for about a month.
