Quick Pass: Start a grocery store

Chapter 472 472. Ocean: 'Pearl Making Machine'

For islanders with little entertainment, anything interesting spreads quickly.

As a result, the fact that the grocery store sells canned fruits with good quality and low price spreads quickly throughout the island after today.

Even without any nobles, the canned fruits in Su Mo's store were still exhausted, and some of them were not even enough to sell.

After all, there are 10,000+ people on an island, and even if only 1% of the people can afford it, there must be more than 1000 people. Compared with only a few hundred cans in the store, this number is nothing at all.

And Su Mo also negotiated with Ka Qiu and You Xin about the water purifier business.

The first batch of [-] water purifiers can only be purchased once a week.

From a certain point of view, this is also convenient for Kaqiu.

After all, he is no longer on the same island as the grocery store. If he can buy it every day like a normal order, then he will have to worry about whether the value of the water purifier is enough to make him willing to spend the extra cost of sailing.

In addition, in addition to orders, Sumo will also put some water purifiers on the shelves in the store every day.

This part of the water purifier does not have any restrictions except that people on the blacklist cannot buy it. Whether you can buy it or not depends on everyone's hand speed.

So far, Su Mo has blackmailed five people, one is Pollock, and the other four are the four nobles who failed to negotiate a business deal that morning, but wanted to join other people to do things together.

That's why Xiao Hei stopped them from entering the store.

People on the blacklist are not allowed to enter.

As for the others who were not on the blacklist, they were stopped purely because they were involved.

But since they can get mixed up with these people, it's not a good thing in itself, and Su Mo's not blacklisting them together is considered the last kindness.

And after Su Mo finished business with Ka Qiu and You Xin, the expelled nobles knew about the existence of the water purifier, and they immediately regretted it.

Especially those nobles who were not involved in this matter at all, and finally prepared to help the evil because they couldn't bear the temptation.

After knowing that they were almost on the blacklist of the grocery store, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief, then turned their heads and kept a distance from the five blackened nobles.

Just kidding, everyone is an aristocrat, so there is no need to agree with anyone, let alone what benefits can be greater than a water purifier?

So the next day, following the news that 'the grocery store sells cheap and high-quality canned fruit', the news that 'the grocery store sells fresh water purifiers with a daily output of [-] liters' spread like crazy throughout the island.

It even spread to coral islands and sand islands.

For a while, the port of Sea Whale Island was very lively, and there was an endless stream of fleets coming and going every day, just for this water purifier.

For this reason, those nobles who claim to be dignified have to lower their stance and come here in person.

After seeing this scene, Kaqiu couldn't help but rejoice that he was decisive enough at the beginning, otherwise he must be like these people now, coming and going like crazy, just to grab a water purifier.

Thinking about it this way, it's not a big deal for me to spend extra money to pick up the goods every week.

While the arrival of these people has made the business of the grocery store better, Sea Whale Island has also become extraordinarily lively.

Especially for vendors with small stalls on the side of the road, their income has increased significantly in the past two days.

While feeling emotional, they couldn't help but be thankful that this grocery store that appeared at an unknown time was on their own island. Otherwise, where would they get the chance to get rich?

"Hey, those people are here again."

Before ten o'clock in the morning, the scene of crowded grocery stores has become a habit.

Among these people, apart from ordinary people who came to buy things, a large part of them were nobles.

The purpose of their coming here is firstly to buy water purifiers, and secondly to convince the owner of this store, and then also reach a cooperation agreement, but it seems that none of them have succeeded so far.

You know, among all the nobles, You Xin and Ka Qiu are undoubtedly the most enviable.

Because when other nobles still needed to grab, they had already returned home with the first batch of [-] water purifiers and hundreds of canned fruits.

The first batch of water purifiers that You Xin bought have officially started working. In theory, the daily output should be [-] liters of fresh water, but the total output of fresh water on the first day was only [-] liters.

The lack of [-] liters was due to the first use, and the person in charge of the care failed to dispose of the salt crystals accumulated in the water purifier in time, thus affecting the working efficiency of the water purifier.

But even so, this number is already very shocking.

Especially other nobles, that is even more jealous.

In their view, where is [-] liters of fresh water!

These are clearly [-] pearls!

Water Purifier?

No.

Pearl Maker!

At the same time, as another Kaqiu who also owns [-] water purifiers, his fresh water production on the first day is even less than You Xin's, only [-] liters.

The reason is also very simple. After all, he led the fleet to Sea Whale Island and hadn't left yet. There were not enough manpower on board, so he was more negligent in cleaning up the salt crystals than You Xin.

However, Kaqiu has asked his cronies to return to Coral Island with water purifiers, and he himself is planning to live in Sea Whale Island for a week, and then go back after buying the second batch of water purifiers.

By the way, I can also take this opportunity to have a relationship with the boss... Although I know it's useless, I still have to do what needs to be done.

……

And just before the arrival of the second batch of water purifiers, the number of water purifiers sold on the shelves every day has reached nearly a hundred, but the first thing for any noble who has snatched a water purifier is to send someone to run the purifier as soon as possible. Water dispenser, so that it does not waste time to continuously produce fresh water.

After the output fades out, it is directly put into the market and sold at the price of 1 pearl = 2 liters of fresh water on the market.

There are quite a few nobles who do this, and even those nobles from other islands want to sell fresh water to make money after they go back, and then recover the cost of buying water purifiers.

After all, seawater is "unlimited" and has no cost, which means that as long as the water purifier pays back, it will definitely be a profitable business without cost.

Almost all nobles have such an idea...

But actually?
They find that they don't seem to be making much money.

……

An aristocrat threw something in his hands angrily, then pointed at the people in front of him and asked, "Didn't I ask you to sell it?! Where are the pearls!"

"A total of [-] liters of fresh water, you told me only sold a hundred pearls?"
