Chapter 128 Selling at the original price, large-scale entry
Six o'clock in the morning.
The cold system notification sounded punctually in the minds of every player.
【Ding! Congratulations to all players for successfully surviving the fifth night.】
【During the daytime (6:00 AM - 12:00 PM), zombies throughout the school will enter a dormant state.】
【Tip 1: Dormant zombies will not actively attack, but they will wake up if attacked or disturbed.】
【Tip 2: At midnight tonight, an equal number of new zombies will appear. Any uncleared dormant zombies will wake up at that time and join the wandering ranks.】
【2nd Floor-417-Lai Kangjia (tenant): God Su is awesome! If God Su hadn't stepped in last night, our Dormitory would definitely be gone!】
【6th Floor-133-Xu Youyou (landlord): I declare that from today on, Boss Su Ze is my only faith! That dark shadow last night was so handsome it made my legs go weak!】
【5th Floor-611-Xin Xiaotian (landlord): Thank you, Boss Su Ze, for saving our lives last night. All of us on the fifth floor will keep this in our hearts!】
【2nd Floor-517-Li Xiaoman (tenant): Boss Su Ze is a god! I won't accept any arguments! To the brothers who were still waiting and watching yesterday, your regrets must be eating you alive now, right?】
【3rd Floor-194-Wang Tao (tenant): Brother Meng! Brother Meng, are you still there? Our Dormitory has made up our minds; is it still in time to join?】
【1st Floor-778-Shu Xiaoming (landlord): Boss Zhuang! Our Dormitory wants to join too! Please take us in!】
Some players had seen Su Ze's terrifying strength through their peepholes.
What did security feel like?
Following Su Ze was the ultimate sense of security!
Moreover, those who joined yesterday received 100 Wood material as a benefit!
Maybe there would be some today too?
Suddenly, Su Ze's private panel was flooded with many private messages at the same time.
Wang Meng, Zhuang Qianhao, Xu Feng... the ten great leaders sent messages almost simultaneously, the contents being largely the same.
【Private Chat · Wang Meng: Boss, the third floor is exploding. A bunch of people are blocking the door wanting to join. What should we do? Should we set a threshold?】
【Private Chat · Liu Yuanfang: Boss, there are also many girls on the Fourth Floor who want to come over.】
【Private Chat · Chen Xueming: Boss Su Ze, I've also received many applications here, but most of them don't meet my standards for technical talent. Should I push them to the other leaders?】
Su Ze looked at these messages with an expressionless face.
He replied to them one by one.
【Private Chat · Su Ze: The more people the better, but you can reject those whose strength is too poor. Also, set a new rule: those who want to join must join as an entire Dormitory collective; we won't take individuals.】
After replying to them, Jiang Yuwan, who was beside him, suddenly looked up.
Her cold face carried a hint of contemplation.
"Su Ze, the trade channel has over a dozen more people."
She looked up, a trace of gravity on her cold face.
"The trade channel has over a dozen more openers."
"These people will likely sell supplies privately and compete with us for business."
Su Ze nodded, not surprised by this.
"The arbitrage business couldn't last long anyway."
He knew very well that as players killed more zombies, the number of people opening the shop and trade channel would explode.
At that point, the market would quickly saturate with supplies. After a price war, once everyone had opened the shop, there would no longer be such profits from selling.
Unless the price was lower than the shop's.
However, he wasn't worried.
He had already earned a lot and knew this day would come sooner or later.
Next, he would integrate all the players at Jinghai University and have them earn copper coins for him by clearing zombies.
Supplies were merely a tool he used to control people's hearts.
After a moment's thought, he immediately had a new plan.
He opened the private chats with the leaders again.
【Private Chat · Su Ze: Send out another new notice. The benefit for dormitories that joined yesterday was 100 units of Wood material. From today onwards, this benefit is canceled.】
【Private Chat · Su Ze: However, dormitories that join within the next two days can purchase all basic supplies from me at the shop's original price.】
The message was sent.
Su Ze turned back to Jiang Yuwan: "List all the basic supplies we have on hand for private trade, and set the price at the shop's original price."
Jiang Yuwan was stunned for a moment, but then she immediately understood Su Ze's intention. A flash of approval crossed her cold eyes.
This dog man's mind really worked fast!
This move was practically cutting the ground from under their feet!
First, canceling the free benefit made those who joined yesterday feel balanced, thinking they had gained something, which increased their loyalty.
Second, using the new bait of "buying at internal original prices" would attract those players who were still hesitating.
The triple price difference was instantly wiped out!
For survivors lacking supplies, this was an irresistible temptation!
The most ruthless part was the last point.
Su Ze had driven the price down to the absolute bottom line.
Those players who had just opened the trade channel and were thinking of following Su Ze's example to make money as "middlemen" were instantly dumbfounded.
Su Ze was selling at cost; how could they sell?
They couldn't possibly sell at a loss, could they?
Who had more supplies than Su Ze? Who had higher credibility than Su Ze?
In this way, he not only completely eliminated the possibility of others trading privately but also took advantage of the market before it saturated to quickly clear out his looted, zero-cost supplies and convert them into massive amounts of copper coins!
Killing three birds with one stone!
"I'll get right on it." Jiang Yuwan said no more and immediately began operating on her panel.
And Su Ze's new rules quickly spread through the entire Dormitory building via the ten leaders.
As soon as the news came out, the Public Channel exploded again!
【6th Floor-388-Liu Yan (tenant): What?! The price is only one-third of what it was before? Holy crap! Life is going to be better from now on! Thanks, Boss!】
【8th Floor-481-Zhang Xun (landlord): Damn it! What a miscalculation! If I'd known, I would have joined yesterday! Boss Xu Feng! Is the 8th floor still taking people? Our entire Dormitory is joining!】
【5th Floor-Wu Hailong (landlord): Brothers, charge! Come sign up with me!】
【3rd Floor-783-Qiu Xiao (landlord): Boss Wang Meng! I was wrong! I should have gone yesterday! Please, give us another chance!】
Envy, regret, ecstasy...
All sorts of emotions intertwined.
Those who joined yesterday felt they had gotten a bargain by receiving one hundred units of Wood material.
Although many players were regretful, they were also overjoyed.
Buying supplies would be much easier from now on!
For a time, the entire Dormitory building fell into a feverish atmosphere.
All the survivors who were still waiting and watching completely abandoned their last shred of hesitation and scrambled to the registration points of the leaders on their respective floors.
They had only one thought—join! They must join!
This craze lasted until noon.
...
Afternoon.
In the corridor of the Fourth Floor, the ten great leaders gathered once again.
The faces of each of them beamed with excitement and agitation that was hard to conceal.
It was a heartfelt shock and pride that came from personally creating a behemoth.
Su Ze still sat in that solitary chair, his expression calm.
"Let's begin..."
