Number One Dungeon Supplier

Chapter 1306: Extra: Logistics Behind PandaVerse

“You sure the Sponsor tickets are going to do what we think they are supposed to do? Didn’t Jin say that it did not have anything extra other than an additional perk?” Bu Dong said as he was munching on a grilled chicken sandwich with bacon in it. The rumoured free delivery services of Pandafull Delivery within the 200 metre radius of the Tree Mall were indeed true and everyone was taking full advantage of it. 

Some thought there would be a heck of waiting time since the number of people around ordering food was enormous but most if not all of the customers waiting were surprised by the efficiency of the food. 

This was because Jin had granted all of the food store owners within his Tree Mall a temporary perk that allowed them to store their food in Pandafull warehouse just for today. This meant that any food that was created out of their cooking wok or oven could be magically stored in Pandafull storage with no loss of taste, heat and even the freshness. The store owners know the temporal magic storage of Pandafull and had taken the chance to fully utilise them since Jin was giving them the chance to use it for free. 

This meant that whenever they had some time on their hands, they could create the food in advance and store it in Pandafull warehouse for keeping. This not only allowed them to create food in an unconstrained time situation but also ensured the best quality for each food item they made. To their surprise, because of the number of food items that had been delivered, the System was also able to categorise them, by acknowledging how certain food items despite them being on the same menu item to be of a higher quality. 

Thus, under the disguise of Pandafull’s appraisal system, the System had decided to mark such higher quality food items a little more expensive than the usual and even that was not discouraging any customers to buy them. In fact, they were sold out the moment it was released into the Pandafull’s list. Even though it was 1.5 times more expensive than the usual food items, seasoned customers knew that the Pandamonium App had always been a partial judge when it comes to pricing.

The price could be absurd but once people tried them out, they knew that it was something that they would not regret buying. Hence, this allowed the food store owners to earn a huge revenue with the aid of the System and were even considering getting the monthly subscription of Pandafull’s warehouse services once PandaVerse ended. (Jin still did promise those who still had leftover stocks after the PandaVerse Festival that no service fees were rendered for the remaining items but they would no longer have access to it if they did not pay for the subscription fees. 

Obviously, this free trial thing was like a trap to all the food store owners in the Tree Mall, but it was too good of service for them to give up once they knew how it felt like. Meanwhile, the Pandawans who had joined multiple events still could not believe the astonishing number of people within the crowd. 

And the trouble was that even though they were on time for the event, they were already queuing a few streets away while ensuring that the roads were not blocked. Many who drove here by car were surprised how the Tree Mall was the only place where there seemed to be an infinite amount of car slots. They could only deduce that Jin too had used a dungeon instance to keep the cars considering how instead of going into the underground car park, a series of attendants are asking the customers and their families to get out of the car as their vehicles were being automatically parked for them. 

To make things even more pleasant for car owners, Jin had introduced a season pass where the parking fees were cheaper if they previously bought a ticket to go for the PandaVerse Festival. As minor as it sounds, it was a relief for many who had travelled far and wide just for this particular event. 

Not to mention, Hotel Pandastic and the other hotel chains under Jin’s management had seen peak capacity to manage travellers from overseas or other parts of China, making it an exclusive stay to those who come just for the Festival. Jin had placed a lot of emphasis on the logistics ensuring that not only the main event of PandaVerse festival Great Demon Rat War would be a smooth ride but also the needs of his customers. 

He did not have to do this and let the hostels, hotels and other lodging services take up the burden but how could he miss out on the lucrative profit from providing services which he had already made way in advance? (Some thought that Jin had purposely made all this just for the PandaVerse Festival, thinking it was a major realisation of his overall business master plan but there was no way they would know that it was a mere coincidence that all of these additional services to leech money from customers in every way possible had made this almost an ecosystem that could profit and pleases customers.)

“Looks like the countdown has already started!” Deng Long said as they saw multiple holograms being projected outside the Tree Mall with a digital timer counting down the start of the PandaVerse Festival. T-10 minutes and everyone started to fervently talk about what to expect. Some of them even whip out the Great Demon War Map and recheck where they would like to go as a start while others attempted to refresh the Pandamonium App to see if there was any special last minute information that would be given out to everyone since it seems like other than the Great Demon Rat War, everything else about the PandaVerse Festival had been rather restrictive other than a few teases. 

No one knows what to expect from this despite the contagious hype that had been spreading around the net for months. All they could do was wait for that 10 minutes to pass so that they could enter the Dungeon Supplier store and discover the magic that was waiting for them.
