Chapter 266: Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit
Chapter 266: Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit
Zhang Yuchi had achieved a grand slam, and as expected, he would soon arrive at Jiangnan University.
Upon hearing this news, Zhang Wentao and the others were in a panic.
But Li Wu remained calm and composed.
What's there to panic about? It's just Zhang Yuchi. Let him come. After all, it's not like he's going to beat me up.
He's just a student; does he think he can beat me up?
Compared to Zhang Yuchi, Li Wu believed that the most pressing issue was the credit system and the value of credits.
Although he had secured three months of time through the competition, if he couldn't produce results within that timeframe, he would still face the consequences.
Therefore, Li Wu's current focus was on perfecting the credit system.
To improve the credit system, the most crucial aspect was to ensure that credits had the value they deserved.
Currently, one credit could be exchanged for 10 points.
This was Li Wu's decision.
However, the students didn't think this was a fair price.
If credits were considered a form of currency, the students felt that they were less reliable than points.
Li Wu's task was to increase the value of credits and provide credibility to the system.
In this regard, Li Wu had made some preparations from the start.
September 25th.
The 15th day since the curriculum reform at Jiangnan University.
Two announcements were made through official channels at Jiangnan University.
One was the opening of the Jiangnan University Online Mall.
The other was regarding the credit exchange at Jiangnan University.
The former was relatively simple, announcing that Jiangnan University would launch an online mall.
Currently, the online mall is only accessible to Jiangnan University's internal members.
The second announcement about credit exchange contained more information.
It hinted that Jiangnan University would soon open the credit exchange function to the public.
However, the credits available for exchange would only be usable for purchasing mall items.
These sudden announcements left outsiders puzzled, unsure of what Li Wu and Jiangnan University were up to.
Just as they were in the dark, the Lu Family Group suddenly held a new product launch, declaring that they had overcome technical challenges and unlocked the second evolution of the Boneless Wild Pig.
The Lu Family Group's new product, the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit, had been successfully developed.
This product enables the Iron Armored Wild Pig and Steel Armored Wild Pig to successfully complete their second evolution with an 87% success rate.
Upon hearing this news, those in the know immediately connected it to Jiangnan University's previous announcements.
After all, the head of the Lu Family Group is Li Wu, who is also the de facto controller of Jiangnan University.
Jiangnan University's announcement was swiftly followed by the Lu Family Group's product launch.
It would be hard to believe that there wasn't some connection between the two.
Sure enough, Jiangnan University and the Lu Family Group soon released a joint statement.
The Lu Family Group and Jiangnan University reached a cooperation agreement and signed an exclusive sales agreement for the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit.
On the same day, people discovered that the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit was quietly listed on Jiangnan University's online mall.
Priced at 400 credits, it only supported credit payments.
Moreover, only 100 kits were available daily (with pre-orders)!
Li Wu's move left the onlookers in awe.
The Boneless Wild Pig, a relatively common summoned beast, had gained even more popularity due to the previous Boneless Wild Pig Soup incident. Many more people were now cultivating the Boneless Wild Pig as their second summoned beast.
After all, Li Wu's company provided him with a daily income of 50,000 to 60,000 points.
The scale of Boneless Wild Pig cultivation was evident.
Now that Li Wu had overcome the second evolution hurdle, the potential of the Boneless Wild Pig had been further enhanced.
The Boneless Wild Pig, capable of a second evolution, even had a slight chance of becoming a summoned beast above the Overlord rank.
This was a goldmine!
By placing this goldmine at Jiangnan University, Li Wu could establish a reliable sales channel for his company.
On one hand, it provided credibility to the credit system, stabilizing Li Wu's credit framework.
On the other hand, it allowed Li Wu to firmly control Jiangnan University.
This ensured that Li Wu's curriculum reform could proceed smoothly.
From the day the Jiangnan University online mall opened and the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit was launched, the credit exchange at Jiangnan University reached unprecedented heights.
Within just one day, nearly 30 million points were exchanged for credits at Jiangnan University.
The mall's 100 Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kits were instantly sold out.
Moreover, pre-orders were already booked three months in advance.
Pre-orders required submitting credits in advance, meaning that on the first day of the school mall's launch, Jiangnan University's account received 30 to 40 million points.
Looking at the account balance, Old Zhang almost couldn't believe his eyes. It was the first time he realized how easy it was to make money.
"Thirty million a day, that's 900 million a month, and over 10.8 billion in a year! Little Lu, we're going to be rich!"
Zhang Wentao, the old man, was so excited that he couldn't help but jump around with joy, wishing he could kiss Lu Wu right on the face.
"First of all, I need to clarify that this 30 million is just an advance payment. This situation won't last long; at most, we'll earn one or two hundred million points in a week, and that's about it.
Secondly, eighty percent of these points are mine, and the remaining twenty percent goes to Jiangnan University.
Lastly, can you please get off me? Can't you see that my family's little Dudu wants to cut you down?"
Although Lu Wu said this, Zhang Wentao's excitement didn't diminish.
In the version of the book, the numbers were different, but the excitement was the same.
Even with just twenty percent, it was still over six million a day, which amounted to more than sixty million in ten days and over a hundred million in a month.
It was a number that Zhang Wentao had never even dared to imagine before.
Amidst his excitement, Zhang Wentao also felt a bit embarrassed as he looked at Lu Wu.
"Little Lu, isn't it a bit too much for the school to take twenty percent? This Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit, from research to material production, is all done by your company. The school only handles sales and takes twenty percent; this seems a bit..."
Lu Wu shook his head and said, "It's fine, really. I, Lu Wu, don't care about making money. As long as the school can develop, it doesn't matter to me if I make a profit or not."
Hearing these words, Zhang Wentao almost shed tears. He reached out and grabbed Lu Wu's hand.
He was so touched that he couldn't speak.
But then, Lu Wu continued, "Anyway, I still have about forty percent of the profit, which is enough."
"What?"
Zhang Wentao was taken aback.
"You still have forty percent of the profit?"
"Yeah."
The core material of this Evolution Kit was the milk of the Steel Armored Dairy Cow. The milk came from Lu Wu's family farm, so of course, the profit would be high.
To this, Zhang Wentao wanted to say, "Can I have that feeling of being touched back? And can you increase the school's share a little?"
Of course, Old Zhang only thought about saying it; he didn't actually say it. Even if he did, all he would get in return was a dismissive laugh from Lu Wu.
Subsequently, Lu Wu transferred 2.5 million points from Jiangnan University's account.
This money was needed by Lu Wu to upgrade his farm, improve the quality of the Iron Armored Oxen in the farm, and expand his company's scale by establishing production lines.
The Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit was different from their previous products.
Lu Wu's company used to sell milk.
Now, they were selling finished products, which required a larger investment.
Currently, there were only three Steel Armored Dairy Cows in his farm, so the production was far from meeting the demand. Lu Wu needed to increase the number of these cows.
The evolution cultivation plan for the Steel Armored Dairy Cow, like the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Plan, was not made public.
Indeed, many factions secretly held cultivation plans that were not disclosed to the public.
After all, some plans, like the Mini Skeleton Evolution Plan, were not valuable enough to monetize, while others, like the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Plan, were extremely valuable. Uploading them to the intranet would only earn a few hundred thousand points at most.
However, keeping them private allowed for different strategies, such as Lu Wu's Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit, which harvested resources.
In fact, Lu Wu's idea for the Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit came from realizing that the evolution cultivation plan for the Steel Armored Dairy Cow was not being sold but was instead used to sell the product directly.
Initially, when it was just the Boneless Wild Pig Soup, the Jiangbei Breeding Center had planned to do the same. But because their plan was plagiarized, they had no choice but to make it public.
If Jiangbei didn't make it public, Lu Wu would have done so. They had no other option but to go public.
Lu Wu's Steel Armored Wild Pig Evolution Kit had been a huge success, and now, when he sought to purchase the Steel Armored Dairy Cow's evolution products, he would also have to pay a high price.
Compared to the Steel Armored Wild Pig, the Steel Armored Dairy Cow products were much more expensive, costing 8,000 points each.
Lu Wu's farm currently had 371 Iron Armored Oxen that could be evolved, which would cost around three million points.
It was quite affordable, and Lu Wu could easily pay for it.
However, when Lu Wu's company transferred the points to the other party, they were told that the transaction couldn't be completed at that price.
The other party explained that due to a price increase in one of the raw materials for the Steel Armored Dairy Cow's evolution products, the product's price had to be adjusted.
This situation was quite normal, and Lu Wu understood. He asked what the new price was.
The other party smiled slightly and said that the new price was 80,000 points.
