Chapter 156 Shopping Frenzy
"Miss Wiz, give me two bottles of vitality potion."
"I want ten bottles!"
"All in! My husband's taking all of today's energy potions!"
……
Wiz's magic item shop was noisy, but it had never been so lively before.
"Please be patient and queue up to purchase. Our store still has plenty of Vitality Potions in stock."
Wiz maintained order, and after hearing that there was a sufficient supply of Vitality Potions, the customers who had come to buy them calmed down and lined up in an orderly fashion.
As for the other items in the magic item shop, due to their bizarre effects, they didn't attract much traffic from the vitality potion.
Aside from a few people dressed as butlers who bought some strange items to take home, the other adventurers who knew about the items sold in the shop didn't even glance at them.
Due to the sudden surge in sales of the Vitality Potion, Broly and his two companions, who had arrived that morning, were forced to help Wiz sell the product.
The long queue of customers waiting to buy vitality potions didn't disperse until the afternoon when the stock was almost sold out.
"Strange, why are vitality potions suddenly so popular?"
Wiz was puzzled, and Broly couldn't understand it either. He had been thinking of other ways to help Miss Lich's magic item shop increase its revenue, but he never expected to suddenly make such a big profit.
"Hey, Duster, you should know why Vitality Potions suddenly became so popular, right?"
Aqua reached out to the last customer who came in to buy a vitality potion. The person she was holding was none other than the gentle guardian of the women's restroom and changing room, a regular at the Axel Detention Center, a judge known as the Light of Justice in the swimsuit beauty pageant, loyal to male desires, a former dragon knight, and now a small-time hoodlum in Axel.
"Hey, you guys selling this stuff, don't you know what's going on?"
Dust, who had been stopped, asked in a somewhat strange tone.
"That's why I'm doing market research with you, precisely because I didn't know."
Aqua crossed her arms and said matter-of-factly.
"Okay, I thought you knew, which is why you prepared so much stock of medicine in advance."
As Duster said this, he naturally explained the reason for the sudden popularity of the Vitality Potion.
When the Vitality Potion was first put on the market, not many people paid attention to it.
After all, who would be willing to spend 40,000 Eris to buy something that instantly restores energy and stamina when you can simply rest?
At most, some adventurers would buy them as a backup, to be used as a trump card in critical moments.
It wasn't until someone went to a succubus shop, secretly used the thing, and displayed great prowess, and then spread the word about their achievements, that this thing suddenly became popular.
At first, this was just a rumor circulating in a small circle, but it became more and more outlandish as it spread, with rumors emerging that someone could fight indefinitely as long as they had enough vitality potions.
Then, some time ago, someone spread the rumor that this product might sell out, which led to today's buying frenzy.
"So, the vitality potions we sell have actually become special items that increase sexual intercourse time?"
Aqua was stunned.
"No wonder some of the customers who bought vitality potions today were quietly asking me if I had any other good stuff."
Wiz also covered his mouth.
"I remember you recommended the mosquito repellent device inscribed with electric shock magic to them, right?"
Darkness blushed slightly, seemingly thinking of the strange use of the antenna-type electric mosquito repellent.
"Vitality potion, it's actually Viagra?"
Broly also spoke the words that immediately came to mind after hearing Duster's words.
Viagra, chemically known as sildenafil, was originally developed as a drug to treat heart disease, but due to other effects, it became a male enhancement drug.
Broly's Vitality Potion is a similar case. It was supposed to be a trump card that adventurers would suddenly pull out during dangerous battles with monsters to restore their energy and stamina, thus displaying their prowess. However, it became famous because it allowed people to display their prowess on another battlefield.
Nowadays, in Axel, vitality potions are not only something adventurers need, but also a sought-after commodity by a large number of wealthy people who have money in their pockets and have that kind of demand.
Among them, Lord Aldap, the lord of Axel, needed this most.
At the same time, he was also tricked by adventurers into buying this product at a high price.
"Wow, is this the Vitality Potion worth 80,000 Eris per bottle?"
After actual testing, Aldap confirmed that this stuff really works.
"Lord Aldap, this thing actually only costs 40,000 Eris."
The butler answered cautiously.
"Damn it, that darned adventurer did indeed sell it to me at a higher price!"
Aldap roared angrily, but then, remembering the effects of the potion, he calmed down.
"Did you pack all these medicines?"
[Sir, the funds you provided are not enough!]
"We've covered everything we could, but the shop that sells vitality potions still has a lot in stock."
"Damn it, didn't that guy say this was an incredibly rare potion?"
The case has been solved. The mastermind behind the buying frenzy was none other than some adventurers who were selling the potions to the local nobles.
In order to increase the price of vitality potions and become better middlemen, they used some scarcity marketing tactics, exaggerating the rarity of vitality potions.
Aldap grumbled, wishing he could hang the adventurer who had deceived him, then his gaze fell on another item, and he asked the butler, "What's this?"
"This is a special item I bought at that magic item shop. It's said to have an electric shock effect."
Upon hearing this, Aldap's eyes lit up.
Hey there, new props, new way to play!
That very night, the nobleman who tried using the electric mosquito repellent nearly got electrocuted in his own bed.
"This is an assassination attempt~"
The first thing Aldap said after waking up was this.
The lord has been assassinated, and the guards have sprung into action, heading to the magic item shop.
That day, a customer who wanted to become a distributor of Vitality Potion came to Wiz's shop.
"Please, Miss Wiz, we are very sincere."
The owner of Axel's Succubus Shop, a voluptuous succubus lady dressed in a conservative yet sexy office lady outfit, came over wanting to collaborate with the Lich Lady.
"Eighty million, we are willing to spend eighty million Eris to buy out the agency rights for Vitality Potion in Axel."
We will purchase the medicine at the same price as you sell it, without changing our purchase price.
This will also save you the trouble of managing and selling the medicines yourself.
