The Omnistore System

Chapter 415: Friendships and business

"Welcome back, Mr. Teyan," Chloe said, recognizing the face of the man who had spent the most money at their store yesterday. Sia had instructed her to remember the faces of their wealthy customers, as well as some regulars, to make them feel important, which they indeed

were. freёweɓnovel.com

Sia had been learning a lot about store management. She knew that Kevin would take the store to the top level someday if he remained alive, and if she stayed with him, she might secure a higher position in it. They might even become a nationwide or international empire, and as a cultivator, her life could be long enough to witness and live in that success if she continued to grow with the store.

To achieve this, she had thousands of pieces of cultivation treasure information stored in her mind, including their prices, how to acquire them, and other relevant details. In doing so, she discovered that Kevin had been selling these items at significantly lower prices than the market rate. She couldn't understand how he made a profit and was equally baffled by the miracle of the essence extractor machine he possessed. This machine did the work of thousands of alchemists in just a day, and he still sold its products at such low prices. Despite her confusion, these factors had filled their store with customers since yesterday. One of these customers, Simu Teyan, was now talking to Chloe as she showed him the few grams of essence left in large glass tubes. Initially, they had about five liters of essence from three herbs, all of which had sold out by the afternoon. They adhered to Kevin's instructions to limit sales to 100 grams per person, even when customers tried to pay more. Kevin's strategy was to sell to as many cultivators as possible, particularly alchemists, who might become regular customers and producers of valuable items.

Now, Simu Teyan was high on the list of important customers. Noticing Simu's slightly downcast expression as he looked at the remaining essence, Sia excused herself from the customer she was attending. Turning to Chloe, she said, "I'll take care of this. Go assist my customer. They're looking for good weapons, so show them the finest ones we have."

"Mr. Simu, the owner has set aside some essence just for you," she said. Leaning down, she retrieved a few small, hand-sized bottles containing three types of essence and showed them to him. His dejected expression transformed into excitement as he asked in surprise, "Really?"

Sia nodded, sliding the bottles toward him. "Each bottle contains a hundred grams of essence from three different herbs."

Sia smiled warmly at Simu's enthusiasm but shook her head. "Unfortunately, the owner isn't here right now, and I can't say for certain if he will come by today."

Simu's excitement waned momentarily, but after a brief pause, he pulled out a hand-sized box from his bag. Opening it, he revealed sixteen small glass bottles neatly placed in secure compartments. Each bottle was filled with a milky white liquid. "These are the products I made from the essence I purchased yesterday," he said, his tone filled with pride. "As thanks, for selling me this essence today, please take them."

"I'm afraid I can't accept them without his permission," Sia said, her voice tinged with hesitation, though a flash of greed crossed her eyes. The potions he was offering were Qi potions, at least high earth grade. If she used all of them, she might be able to open and connect at least thirty of her meridians.

"Just take them and give them to him when he comes. If he doesn't want them, he can return them to me when I come back," Simu said, not waiting for her response. After paying for the essence, he quickly slipped out before Sia could reject the potions. Now, looking at the Qi potions, she smiled and muttered to herself, "His plan is working."

This was exactly what Kevin wanted by selling the essence to alchemists. They might occasionally return the favor, thinking Kevin was doing them a great service by offering large quantities of precious essence at such a low price. This strategy could lead to friendships and business with other alchemists, creating a steady flow of cultivation products to sell in the store.

With this in mind, Sia put away the box. Though tempted to keep it for herself, she refrained. Having sex with Kevin had a similar effect to the potion, and it was free, without indebting herself to anyone. However, it left her body too sensitive and tired afterward.

As she put the box away, Chloe's watch buzzed. She glanced at it, blushing, then turned to Sia. "Aunty, can I take a break?"

Seeing that the customers were just browsing and there were only a few of them, Sia nodded. "Go ahead, but come back early."

Curious about Chloe's reaction to what seemed like a message, Sia approached Amy and asked in a low voice, not wanting to disturb the customers, "Did Chloe get a boyfriend recently?"

Amy shrugged, not knowing much about her sister's love life as they didn't share such details with each other. "I don't know. Why do you ask?"

Seeing that Amy didn't have any information, Sia dropped the topic, shaking her head and saying, "Nothing." She then returned to attending to the customers.

Meanwhile, Chloe, in the store's storeroom, looked at her watch where a holographic screen lit up with a message from Kevin: "Look how good she is. Do you think you can do it like her?"

"What the hell? Why would I look at that?" Chloe said, her tone a mix of annoyance and embarrassment. The message had a video attached, and the thumbnail showed a veiled woman with only her blue, teary eyes visible. Chloe could tell from the obscured image that it was something provocative, especially since Kevin had made a deal with her to watch certain videos in exchange for a job at his store.

Blushing furiously, Chloe glanced at the video. Kevin's last message questioned whether she could perform as well as the veiled woman in the video. Although she initially wanted to ignore it, her curiosity was getting the better of her. She had planned to claim she watched it if questioned, but now the urge to see what was inside was overwhelming.
