Chapter 983: Distribution and Ranking Structure
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wen Yu looked confused as she did not understand what Lin Yuan was saying. She felt that custom-made clothes should be enough.
“In order to display one’s status, the members of factions will not wear the spirit qi clothes they wear to banquets. Some of them might even be afraid of being seen as having a lack of clothes and never wear the spirit qi clothes again. Hence, the custom-made clothes will only be worn once, and it’ll be hard to attract orders from the major factions,” said Lin Yuan.
Wen Yu nodded while she pondered over Lin Yuan’s words.
Since she used to be a spirit attendant, she understood the major factions well and knew about the situation that Lin Yuan was describing.
However, she could not come up with a solution.
As Lin Yuan watched Wen Yu contemplating the issue, he smiled and said, “Wen Yu, do you know about the distribution of goods?”
Wen Yu shook her head.
Lin Yuan started to explain, “If a brand wants to retain its customers, it needs to continuously appeal to its customers in a way that customers won’t feel reluctant to part with their money. If the custom-made clothes can only be bought after a customer buys ten other spirit qi clothes, do you think the customers will buy the ten spirit qi clothes?”
Realization dawned on Wen Yu, and she immediately understood what Lin Yuan was getting at.
Lin Yuan continued before she could think about designing the distributed spirit qi clothes. “When a set of spirit qi clothes is precious enough and able to display one’s status, the person will never get tired of wearing it. The heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls should be able to drive up the price when used on a set of spirit qi clothes.
“A key factor of luxury goods is its air of superiority. In order to magnify the air of superiority, there must be a ranking. One set of spirit qi clothes with Cloud Dream Lake elemental pearls can only be obtained after ten other sets of spirit qi clothes are bought. In contrast, a set of spirit qi clothes with Defined Life elemental pearls can only be obtained after 100 sets of other spirit qi clothes and ten sets with Cloud Dream Lake elemental pearls are bought.
“You can also offer a service where Class 5 Weavers will create the spirit qi clothes with Defined Life elemental pearls to the customer’s desired color and details to increase the demand.”
Wen Yu’s eyes lit up. She felt that if Lin Yuan built his own fashion brand, he would probably end up supplying half the clothes worn by the major factions to important events.
As someone who was skilled at organizing, Wen Yu knew Lin Yuan would be capable of doing so because he understood human nature well.
She took out the notebook she always carried with her and jotted down the business plan that Lin Yuan had just laid out.
Lin Yuan did not interrupt her.
He picked out a set of white spirit qi clothes with silver patterns from the rack that Wen Yu had brought.
Lin Yuan noticed that Wen Yu’s Weaver skills had improved.
The silver patterns were stitched using Diamond Soft Silk Silver Silkworm thread.
The thread was feather-light and would be able to remain floating for a minute in a windless environment.
Class 3 Weavers would find it very difficult to embroider using such silk.
Lin Yuan remembered that Wen Yu had only been a Class 3 Weaver when she first made spirit qi clothes for him.
He put the white spirit qi clothes on and communicated with Blackie through his spiritual energy.
Blackie appeared by his window, and he jumped down onto its back.
Blackie immediately carried Lin Yuan toward Tree Stream River, where the Spirit Food Pavilion and the Creation Master Association were.
There were rows of shops lining the back alleys. These stores sold anything, including feys. There would definitely be many Hundred Questions Beasts available for Lin Yuan to choose from.
Although he had announced himself as the Moon Empress’ disciple at the Guard Ye Banquet, information about the disciples of the members of royalty was not leaked.
Thus, he did not need to worry about anyone recognizing him as the Moon Empress’ disciple.
However, he had made an appearance at the Allstar Match and still attracted attention while riding on Blackie’s back.
Lin Yuan also encountered two girls on avian-type feys that stopped him to try to get his contact details and autograph.
The members of the Radiance Hundred Sequence and A-level and B-level guild clubs were used to such occurrences, but Lin Yuan found it uncomfortable.
Many avian-type feys were flying about within the Royal Capital, but not many of them were Fantasy Breed feys, much less pure flood-dragon-species feys.
Lin Yuan had won his fight at the Allstar Match by just using a red light, and many people had been wondering what feys he had.
This flood-dragon-species fey obviously could not let out red light and could not be the fey that Lin Yuan had used at the Allstar Match.
The black flood-dragon-species fey had been evolved to Fantasy Breed while at Gold grade. This meant that it was definitely not just used for transport but was a fey with which Lin Yuan had actually formed a contract.
Many people took pictures of Lin Yuan riding on Blackie to upload them on Star Web to attract more traffic and likes on their personal pages.
