Chapter 216 Out of stock
Cindy walked out the door with the sonar detector not far away when she saw two mages walking over together. When she passed by, he could not help but stop and notice when he heard what the other party said.
"This is the store I mentioned. They sold sonar detectors when they first started school. I wanted to buy one, but unfortunately I didn't get it. The sonar detector was designed by one of the owners of this store, and the paper was also rated as a model for the college."
"The college template is not the paper about bats written by Jiayi. Is sonar the ultrasound emitted by bats? Is it defined as ultrasound?"
"Yes, you'll just look at it. It was sold out at that time. I don't know if there are any goods. I heard that this store is a bit weird. After selling out, it has not been available for new products. We can only try our luck. If it doesn't work, we can only go to another store to check it out. At that time, I heard that there are also stores in the Valoca Chamber of Commerce, but it's not as good as this one."
"I heard that Jiayi is a freshman this year. Now it is the traditional period of college admission. I'm afraid I don't have time to do anything... "
Cindy only heard this, and the other party walked away into the store. He looked at the sonar in his hand, thinking that the other party was lucky, and he encountered it as soon as he touched it.
But my luck seems to be even better, so I bought it without touching it.
He took the sonar detector and went back to the hotel where he stayed, found Emon, and talked about the sonar detector with Emon. Emon was also a little curious about this. He had seen that paper, but had never seen the real thing, nor had he learned this magic circle himself.
Instead of going to Jiayi's store to buy another one, they went to the lake to try out how the sonar detector works.
However, there are definitely more than the two people who knew the origin of the sonar detectors that Cindy met on the road. Many people came when they opened. Later, Kaichi's score was a perfect score, which was considered a name except for one time. Although not everyone knew that Kaichi opened this store, and Kaichi's store was also famous for its shortage.
However, many people came to the "Tim Magic Props Store" with the idea of trying their luck. People who came early felt the surprise. They were originally prepared with disappointment, but they didn't expect that there was really a sonar detector sold, and it was an upgraded version.
However, the so-called upgraded version is also much more expensive. In addition to those who came here at the opening, they had coupons and had not discarded them. Those who did not have coupons in hand can only endure Jiayi's knife.
The so-called upgraded version has not changed its material specifications, but the price is twenty gold more expensive after adding code. However, this cannot be considered a knife for customers, because after using code, although the detection speed is slightly reduced, the distance and accuracy have been greatly improved. In general, it can be considered worth the money.
So after noon, Veram saw that the store was originally deserted and gradually more and more customers, and it looked like a teahouse behind it. The sonar detectors originally prepared in the store gradually decreased, and the risk of out of stock began to occur.
There are not many smart people in the academy. As someone bought the sonar and went out to promote it, in just one afternoon, the crowd gathered to sell the sonar detectors in the store out of stock. Veram began to collect deposits and began to pre-sale the sonar detectors that had not been made after the pre-sale.
If Vilam hadn't known that his boss was lazy and had no diligence in doing things and had not bought a deposit, otherwise the subsequent orders would have been impossible.
In addition to the small shops opened by Jiayi and others, many people went to Valoca's shops. Although the sonar there was a little cheaper, it was sold a lot. Especially for some magic apprentices, they didn't have much money and were interested in sonar. The products of the Valoca Chamber of Commerce were undoubtedly a good choice.
It’s not that no one wants to make it by themselves, but it takes time to analyze a magic array, understand and make the finished product after all. Many of them are made just by saying that. Moreover, the public magic array design plan is not the optimal solution, and it takes more time to optimize it. If you only make one for your own use, it is undoubtedly not cost-effective. If you want to sell it, you have no advantages in performance or "brand", and you can only fight a price war, and Li Ruo will be weak.
So it’s not that no one has learned to make sonar detectors, especially when Jiayi and his store are out of stock, they don’t want to buy low-end versions in Valoca shops. Doing it yourself is undoubtedly an option, but is it just an effect? The urgent production may not be comparable to the low-end versions of Valoca Chamber of Commerce. The production plus R&D costs will not be much lower, and the profit will be less.
The market for magic props is so big that it is difficult to make small profits but quick turnovers. If the profit is small, it is basically impossible to continue, just like some heavy industrial equipment.
When Cindy and Emon went to the lake to test the equipment and returned to the "Tim Magic Props Store", the sonar equipment in the store was out of stock, leaving only one sample for the exhibition. Although many people wanted to buy this sample, Veram did not agree.
After this time, Jiayi and his friends' stores were also famous. They sold out twice and restocked goods were nowhere to be long ago. The products were welcomed by wild beasts. This is the first time such a strange store in Academy Town, and gradually it has a title called the out-of-stock store.
In fact, we can't blame Jiayi and the others completely. They didn't expect that there were so many people buying sonar detectors this time. The announcement said that there were only more than 300 people in this operation. Among so many people, only one-fifth of them would be enough. There is also the Valoca Chamber of Commerce diverted the traffic, and even if it was out of stock, it shouldn't be much different.
But they forgot that not only participated in this operation in the college town, but many people were also interested in sonar detectors, and even among the apprentices, there were also rich people at home, so the sonar detectors in the store were sold out.
Jiayi and the other six made the goods for a week and sold them all in one afternoon. The entire store had a profit for the whole year.
Cindy could only look at the empty shelves and spread her hands at Emon, saying helplessly: "Fortunately we already have one, and it should be almost as good as the two of them use one together. And since the academy only equips one for one boat, that's definitely enough."
He had to comfort himself like this, and then sighed: "I was the only customer when I first entered the store at noon. The manager said he wouldn't buy it early, and I thought he was boasting about it. I didn't expect that it would be out of stock after just a while. I don't know where these people came from."
In fact, there is nothing wrong with Cindy's idea. Even those who participated in this operation did not need a sonar detector for each person. After all, it is enough to detect one person. At most, it is impossible for everyone to detect it. In this case, who will output it?
So many people rushed to the store to buy sonar detectors, which is largely a follow-up behavior. In terms of resource allocation, this can be considered a waste.
It was just because the college’s announcement wrote this, which made them curious about sonar, and the college’s announcement was invisibly equivalent to an endorsement, becoming a soft advertisement for Jiayi and their store.
Of course, this also shows from the indirection that the mages are not short of money. Although the money for experiments is never enough, there is never much control over spending.
By the evening, Jiayi and the others came to the store. Before they could speak, Vilam took out a notebook and handed it to Jiayi. All of them were orders placed by customers after they sold out today. There were more, but Vilam was afraid that they could not finish it, so she did not accept them anymore. All of these orders had to be late within three days, and before the college was in action.
After understanding the situation, even Yi Jiayi's conceit couldn't help but open his mouth: "I thought at least until tomorrow, someone would remember our store. It would be nice to have a few people coming here today, why did it be out of stock? There are a few new ones at home, and I will bring them to you tomorrow morning."
After saying that, he looked at Yanci, Machi and the others: "Tonight, let's work more."
