Divine Convenience Store

Yu Qingyan's heart was still racing as she left the Divine Convenience Store. She might've been expecting it but being personally chosen as the Official Distributor by Lin Mo still took her by surprise. The way he emphasized that he specifically wanted to work with her rather than the Verdant Sky Pavilion behind her almost made her faint from being too flustered.

It's only thanks to her cultivation that she managed to compose herself right away and hear the complete details from Lin Mo.

As she stepped out onto the busy street, her mind replayed the same words in her head, causing her to heat up as she took careful steps to her carriage.

"I'm extending a hand to the individual you, Miss Yu, not the Verdant Sky Pavilion as a whole."

That playful arrogance of his was gradually becoming his trademark. Despite her pride, she couldn't help but admire his business acumen.

For the past week, she had been surprised multiple times by everything he'd shown. The store products are one thing but she doubts the store will be as influential without his innovative ideas.

Upon entering her carriage, she immediately ordered to return to the Verdant Sky Pavilion.

She opened her hand and seated on her palm was the jade token Lin Mo handed to her.

The proof of her status as the Official Distributor.

According to Lin Mo, it was connected to the Divine Interface System that runs the store.

If she activates it with her spiritual energy, she could access it like how it worked with the Viewing Jades. However, its function was exclusively for the Official Distributor position.

Apart from the official contract between her and Lin Mo attached to it, there are several menus she could access such as her current inventory, special listing requests, distribution restrictions, and even a feature that allows her to directly communicate with Lin Mo to report her progress.

The level of organization was staggering and she couldn't help but try to analyze it all in hopes of applying it to their pavilion's organization.

Yu Qingyan closed her fingers around the token, taking a steady breath to compose herself. Yet Lin Mo's image occasionally popped into her head, causing her thoughts to be in disarray.

Nevertheless, though she had already accepted the position, the weight of responsibility was beginning to settle in.

The Verdant Sky Pavilion had its own trade networks, but managing the distribution of Divine Convenience Store products was an entirely different beast. The demand alone would be overwhelming, and if she wasn't careful, her Pavilion might not be able to keep up.

She needed a proper plan.

First things first. She had to inform her grandmother, the Pavilion Master.

Meanwhile, Lin Mo was standing behind the counter, checking the newly updated Staff List from the Staff Management Interface.

[Staff List:

- Lin Mo (Manager)

- Liu Xiaoyu (Assistant Manager)

- Yangyang (Customer Service Representative)]

- Xiao Ya (Floor Staff)

- Yu Qingyan (Official Distributor)]

[With the appointment of an Official Distributor, the Distributor Interface will be unlocked.]

[Distributor Interface (Management Side):

- Distributor List

- Distributor Inventory

- Distribution Restriction

- Transaction Records

- Performance Reports

- Communication Hub]

Lin Mo studied the new interface carefully, his fingers tapping lightly on the floating window, checking what each option does.

Once again, the Divine Interface System had once again adapted to the store's growth, providing a structured way to manage distribution beyond the store's physical location.

It was an essential step forward, especially with how demand for store products had outgrown what a single location could handle. At this point in time, every force in the region had probably already heard of the peculiar store. The Fanling City would become a central hub just because of it.

The Distributor List confirmed Yu Qingyan as the first and currently only distributor. He had no plans to add anyone else for now. Not like he could add anyone else as there's no vacancy. Besides, trust and competence were crucial.

Even though Yu Qingyan was backed by the Verdant Sky Pavilion, her selection was based on personal merit and also… the fact that she'd been hit by his Celestial Providence. He cannot wait to see what kind of fortuitous event she will encounter.

Among the list, The Distribution Restriction caught his eye.

"Let's see. Is it the limit of what she can haul out of the store? Also, certain products should probably remain in-store exclusive." Lin Mo tapped on it, accessing the sub-menu.

A detailed window expanded before his eyes, revealing a list of restrictions and parameters he could set regarding Yu Qingyan's distribution privileges.

The Divine Interface System, as always, anticipated potential loopholes and inefficiencies, offering fine-tuned control over how the store's goods could be handled outside its premises. Somehow, he couldn't help but feel that it was a conscious system.

[Distribution Restriction Settings]

[Product Limitations: Select items that are eligible for external distribution.]

[Quantity Caps: Set a maximum number of units a distributor can take per cycle.]

[Geographical Scope: Define the regions where distribution is permitted.

[Special Approval Items: Require direct approval for select high-tier goods.]

[Exclusive In-Store Products: Restrict certain products to in-store purchases only.]

Lin Mo scanned through the settings, his mind already forming a clear strategy. He tapped it one by one and configured it to his desired setting.

For the [Product Limitations], he set the restriction on high-grade talismans, spirit-grade artifacts, and any item that can be sold above 10 high-grade spirit stones each. He also limited the flavors of potato chips, beverages, and noodles. The meal kits are naturally unable to be distributed as they will spoil.

Or will they? Probably not. He doesn't think it is wise to send that kind of product out, anyway.

He left the [Quantity Caps] at a high amount. 1000 high-grade spirit stones worth of store products. He trusts Yu Qingyan will know what to do with it. She's a merchant herself who has more experience than him in this kind of trade.@@novelbin@@

For [Geographical Scope], Lin Mo debated on this one. While the Divine Convenience Store had no official boundaries, he set an initial restriction to the nearest region next to the one they're in. This ensured proper control before considering expansion.

Through that menu, he finally learned the name of the region. Eastern Abyssal Domain. It clearly has to do with the Abyssal Forest to the west.

Referencing the map, he also discovered that the Abyssal Forest was actually shaped like a huge circle that expanded to the other regions. In the middle of that circle was another huge region. The place they called the 'other side' of the Abyssal Forest, was nothing more than a small part of that region.

As for the [Special Approval Items], he set it for any items that fall on the 10 high-grade spirit price and above. It can be anything from a high-grade talisman to a spirit-grade artifact. It would require Lin Mo's direct authorization before Yu Qingyan could take it out of distribution. That would prevent excessive stockpiling or hoarding of high-quality items by sects or rich entities outside the current region.

[Exclusive In-Store Products] are naturally set for items that can be considered the store's current specialty. Like the Summoning Card Talisman or the Spirit Embodiment Sticker Seal.

Satisfied with everything, he saved the settings.

The interface acknowledged the adjustments with a soft chime, sealing the changes.

"Done," Lin Mo nodded as he waved his hand, closing the interface. "That should keep things balanced."

With this, Yu Qingyan had the freedom to distribute Divine Convenience Store products without worrying about disrupting the store's core operations. However, she still had to follow his guidelines.

That was the key difference between a distributor and a mere supplier. Lin Mo still had full control.

"Boss, look! Xiao Ya. She successfully cultivated the manual I gave her!"

As if she was waiting for him to finish, Liu Xiaoyu tugged at his sleeves as she pointed at the young girl, still in the green and white striped uniform, stepping out of the Shopkeeper's Quarters.

Lin Mo squinted slightly as he couldn't help but be shocked. The poor mortal girl who was exhausted from manning the cash register earlier was emanating the aura of the 3rd level Spirit Gathering Realm.

"Is her Golden Lotus Constitution that much of a cheat?"
