233: Chapter 233 Popular Mosquito Repellent Bracelet

As expected, the first best-selling product from the Chamber of Commerce was a small item: the mosquito repellent bracelet.

It is currently summer, and if one is bitten by mosquitoes, the probability of being infected with a virus is very high.

Previously, everyone used crude methods, such as burning mugwort in their living areas to drive them away with smoke.

Not only was it choking, but the effect was not very ideal.

Some people speculated that those who were easily attracted to mosquitoes had mostly died off last year.

Therefore, since the beginning of summer this year, there have been few cases of people infected with viruses due to mosquito bites.

Perhaps this is the most primitive form of natural selection!

Cruel, yet subtly maintaining the continuation of the species!

Now, the mosquito repellent bracelets sold by the Chamber of Commerce have completely changed this.

A mosquito repellent bracelet for 10 points is now affordable for almost everyone.

A small item, yet with a great purpose.

Its working principle is very simple.

After being worn, the bracelet can absorb infrared radiation from the human body and convert it into energy.

This energy is sufficient to support its continuous release of several frequencies of electromagnetic waves and ultrasonic waves.

People cannot feel the presence of these waves, but they have a very good repellent effect on common mosquitoes.

It requires no charging and no maintenance.

Just wearing it on the hand can prevent mosquitoes from approaching, which is simply a blessing for all survivors.

Therefore, on the opening day of the Chamber of Commerce, a total of 2 million units were sold across all Settlements.

In response, people from various Chamber of Commerce branches even gave the Settlements a tip.

They taught them how to use this information asymmetry to make a small profit.

Currently, only these 20 Settlements have partnered with the Chamber of Commerce.

But everyone needs this mosquito repellent bracelet.

So, they can sell these bracelets to other Settlements and earn a price difference.

Why would the Chamber of Commerce do this?

Because most Settlements are not yet covered, and summer will pass quickly.

If they don't sell the goods while it's hottest, they won't sell well when the weather gets cold.

And for the various Settlements, this is a pain point and a rigid demand.

Selling casually, doubling the profit is not excessive, right?

As for other Settlements not having points, that's easy to solve.

The Chamber of Commerce can provide special point loans.

Various Settlements can apply for a loan from the Chamber of Commerce headquarters for emergency procurement of supplies in the short term.

However, the loan will incur a certain amount of interest.

Later, when the Chamber of Commerce establishes itself in the Settlements, it will be deducted from the land transfer fees.

This way, they can use future points to do things now.

Upon hearing this idea, these cooperating Settlements were incredibly excited.

Having tasted the sweetness of points, who would now complain about having too many points in their hands?

This is the benefit of being the first to try, with the most profit.

Thus, this news began to spread rapidly among the various Settlements.

August 3, 2055, morning.

Many heads of Settlements once again flocked to the Chamber of Commerce Base headquarters in Binjiang.

Their purpose for coming was pure: to apply for point loans.

The staff at the headquarters had already arranged everything, just waiting for everyone to sign the contracts.

Assembly line operation, submitting information, review, membership card processing, a one-stop service.

Oriental Chen estimated that the bracelet product alone would conservatively sell 500 million units.

At a price of 10 points per bracelet, that's a sales volume of 5 billion points.

The exchange ratio between points and crystals is 100 to 1.

Calculated at this ratio, a total of 50 million crystals can be earned!

And his production cost can be said to be almost nothing.

The bracelet itself does not require crystals energy to be implanted or driven by crystals energy.

It merely wastes some materials, and the workshops producing these bracelets consume some energy.

Bee Ant Robot can directly extract raw materials from soil and rock layers, so the average loss per bracelet might not even be 1 point.

So, don't underestimate this small item; precisely because it is small and a rigid demand, it can become a super bestseller.

Its ability to attract money is definitely not much worse than Combat Suit.

Another purpose of his doing this is to try to prevent the spread of the virus and reduce human casualties.

Of course, he is not a savior; saving people must also be profitable.

If there is no profit, he states he cannot afford to save them.

...

While the various Settlements were busy making points, a major event was brewing in Kyoto.

After recuperating for a few days in the Southwest Military Region, Baili Ji quietly returned to Kyoto.

Kyoto was still under martial law at this time.

The fake Baili Ji was, after all, still the nominal Speaker.

He issued an order to the Central Military Region, officially blocking all entrances and exits.

Secretly, the Red Coat Sect was also lurking in various living circles in Kyoto, secretly investigating for information.

With both overt and covert methods working in tandem, after several days, they still hadn't found a single piece of information.

The mysterious group that broke into the villa and rescued the person seemed to have vanished into thin air, impossible to find.

Moreover, what was even stranger was, if Baili Ji had escaped, why hadn't anyone come to hold him accountable?

Even if others didn't know the situation, Shen Tu Zheng Hao most likely knew the inside story.

But even he showed no reaction, and even resumed the construction project of the Mosang Ark Base a few days ago, which was strange.

The fake Baili Ji sat in his office, feeling as if he was on pins and needles.

The situation was very unclear; he felt that danger was approaching step by step, but he just couldn't figure out where the crisis would erupt.
