I Have a Wealth Gathering Array-Chapter 280: June 1st

A woman in her thirties walked in from outside, carrying dishes with a smile on her face.

"Sister Li." Seeing the visitor, Yu Leyao quickly said, "No need to serve the dishes."

Sister Li smiled and said, "This is the last dish, you all take your time eating."

She glanced at Qin Yun.

The stories about Qin Yun were spreading wildly around Jinling, and she was aware of them. She never expected the boy Leyao liked could be so capable.

After Sister Li left, Qin Yun continued, "Let’s settle it this way then. We shall now look for a factory to produce hotpot base ingredients, apply for brand registration, conduct testing, and once everything is set, we will start opening up the market."

Hearing this, Yu Leyao did not refuse. She nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Boss Qin."

...

June 1st, Children’s Day.

For children, today is a happy day when schools give out candies and such. But for college students, it’s no different from usual; everything goes on as usual.

Today, Qin Yun came early to Dingyang City, where three new Celestial Fortune Clothing stores were set to open.

"President Qin, the turnover for May, as well as the specific profits and staff wages, should be ready around one in the afternoon," Zhao Tianqiang reported over the phone.

Listening to Zhao Tianqiang’s report, Qin Yun felt a hint of anticipation.

"The profit for May might surge again."

In May, his identity was revealed, Celestial Fortune’s popularity soared, and the business was better than usual. The monthly turnover broke a record that would be hard to repeat.

Of course, this turnover was entirely due to the sudden reveal of his identity, and a few days later, the buzz began to fade, and people became much more rational.

However, compared to the previous months, the turnover this month was expected to increase even more!

As he waited, twelve o’clock arrived.

"Name: Qin Yun."

"Level 2 Wealth Gathering Array: 10 sets"

"Level 1 Wealth Gathering Array: 24 sets"

"Balance: 95,126,000"

As noon arrived, lines of information followed by mechanical voices echoed in Qin Yun’s mind.

"Balance has not reached one hundred million, insufficient to activate Level 3 Wealth Gathering Array."

"On the 1st of every month, you can activate one Level 2 Wealth Gathering Array and two Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays."

"Currently, there are 10 Level 2 Wealth Gathering Arrays, with 9 used; 24 Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays, with 22 used."

"The next Wealth System information will update at noon on July 1st."

...

"May’s profit was twenty-three million!"

Looking at his net profit, Qin Yun felt a surge of joy.

Last May, he opened his first clothing store, and the monthly profit was over a hundred thousand!

And now, in May of the second year, his monthly profit had reached twenty-three million!

What an astonishing increase!

The Wealth Gathering Array was terrifying, something he hadn’t fully exploited before, but now paired with an emphasis on talent, the array gradually revealed even greater power!

The balance had reached ninety-five million; he was just five million short of being able to upgrade the system!

Thinking this, Qin Yun suddenly asked, "System, when the Wealth System upgrades to level three next month, how many Level 3, Level 2, and Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays will there be?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

The system was silent as long as the upgrade was far away, answering no questions.

However, being just a step away from the upgrade, if he asked, the system would reveal some post-upgrade information.

Just like last September, when the system upgraded, but he was able to gather some information in August.

Level 1 systems could generate one Level 1 Wealth Gathering Array.

Level 2 systems could generate one Level 2 Wealth Gathering Array, and two Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays.

So, wouldn’t Level 3 systems generate one Level 3 Wealth Gathering Array, two Level 2 Wealth Gathering Arrays, and four Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays?

These suppositions were Qin Yun’s guesses, and he wasn’t certain.

"Host, after activating the Level 3 Wealth Gathering Array, there will still be Level 2 and Level 1 Wealth Gathering Arrays, but the quantities are not fixed; they can be autonomously chosen according to the host’s desires."

A mechanical voice sounded.

"Quantities not fixed? What does that mean?" Qin Yun was taken aback.

Was it different from what he thought?

"Host has insufficient permissions; cannot answer."

Again came a mechanical voice.

Thinking for a moment, Qin Yun asked again, "So should I continue running back and forth setting up Wealth Gathering Arrays like this?"

"Host has insufficient permissions; cannot answer."

Qin Yun: "..."

Gathering his thoughts, Qin Yun looked at the store in front of him.

"Continue to wait."

At this moment, he was actually in a very good mood.

After placing three Wealth Gathering Arrays, Qin Yun had completely taken over the market in Dingyang City!

"Now, Jinling City, Muyi City, Rongyang City, and Dingyang City are dominated by Celestial Fortune, leaving nine cities in Su Province’s thirteen!" Qin Yun thought with anticipation.

A small part of Su Province’s market had already been captured by him!

Although Celestial Fortune’s profits were now very high, in reality, the development was not very fast, incomparable to the likes of Nike and Adidas with stores in every country.

Looking at the famous clothing and shoe stores nearby, Qin Yun’s gaze was calm.

"New Cotton, Zero Donation..."

At this moment, he thought silently to himself how these foreign brands made huge profits from Chinese people at home, occupying and squeezing the majority of the domestic market, while domestic brands still lagged somewhat behind, weak in competition.

In Qin Yun’s mind, these would be Celestial Fortune’s future competitors!

Of course, by that time, who knows what level Celestial Fortune would have reached!

After looking silently for a few seconds, Qin Yun retracted his gaze and drove back to Jinling.

Buzz...

On the road, his phone rang.

"President Qin, our Celestial Fortune marketing report for May is out." Zhao Tianqiang called and reported, "Our total marketing revenue for May is..."

Zhao Tianqiang continued his report, finally saying, "Our total profit amounts to twenty-two million eight hundred eighty-one thousand..."

Listening to his report, Qin Yun’s face initially wore a smile, but hearing the last part, the smile suddenly disappeared. He pondered slightly and said, "Manager Zhao, has the finance department reviewed it?"

This total profit did not match what his Wealth Gathering Array calculated, falling short by two hundred thousand.

"President Qin, our finance department reviewed it several times." Zhao Tianqiang replied.

In reality, even though there are two clothing factories and thirty-one branches, Celestial Fortune’s business model is not complex.

The two clothing factories mainly provide self-sufficiency, with the produced clothes sent to Celestial Fortune stores for sale, so no one could manipulate this.

As for the clothing stores, they deal with clothes from the company, so mistakes during stock-in, kickbacks, and other issues do not exist, enabling the finance department to work overtime and quickly calculate at the end of each month.

However, an error had emerged now – this was the first time a financial error appeared at Celestial Fortune Clothing.
