As soon as Orochimaru finished speaking, the link in the bottom right corner of the live stream opened instantly.
Immediately afterwards, the audience flooded in and began placing orders.
Seeing the order notifications flashing on the screen, Orochimaru smiled with satisfaction and quickly called out, "Everyone, don't worry, we have them all!"
However, before Orochimaru could finish speaking, Kimimaro from his team suddenly interrupted him, anxiously saying, "Lord Orochimaru, they're all sold out!"
Orochimaru was stunned upon hearing this. His eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief. Only five seconds had passed, and ten thousand bottles of the product had been sold out so quickly? And he had clearly set a purchase limit!
"Have you set a purchase limit?" Orochimaru asked in confusion. He remembered that he had seen other people's live broadcast rooms selling goods before, and they usually lasted about ten minutes. How come it ended in just 5 seconds when it came to his own?
Kimimaro quickly replied, "I've confirmed it's set up, Lord Orochimaru. However, 80% of the orders here are from Konoha headquarters, and the remaining 20% are from other Konoha branches."
As he spoke, he unconsciously swallowed, secretly marveling at the astonishing sales volume of Lord Orochimaru's products.
Although Kimimaro only recently joined Orochimaru's team, he has gained some understanding of the internet and live streaming through Orochimaru's introduction.
Even so, he was still shocked by the scene before him.
Orochimaru's products have always been renowned for their quality and are highly trusted by consumers.
However, his sales channels have always been limited to offline physical stores, and he has never tried online sales.
This time, Orochimaru had a sudden inspiration and decided to try something out online.
He simply did some publicity and didn't have high expectations.
However, unexpectedly, this attempt triggered a huge response!
Once Orochimaru's product was launched, it was like a powder keg that had been lit, instantly igniting the market and becoming a blockbuster product!
Orochimaru, despite his nickname "Cold-blooded Lord" and his usual calm and collected demeanor, was nonetheless shocked when he saw the sales figures.
He never imagined that the power of the internet was so great, capable of propelling his product to such a high level of popularity in such a short time.
However, Orochimaru quickly regained his composure. He took a deep breath and said to the camera, "Thank you for your support of Orochimaru products. To express my sincerity and to reciprocate your enthusiasm, I have decided to ship all remaining stock at once!"
Although his voice was calm, the determination it contained was undeniable.
Then, Orochimaru turned to Kimimaro beside him and shouted, "Kimimaro, go and get another 30,000 bottles! Put them up on the link in two minutes! Make sure all my fans can buy them!"
Upon hearing Orochimaru's order, Kimimaro dared not delay in the slightest and immediately turned to carry out the mission.
Orochimaru continued to face the camera, smiling as he said, "Please be patient, everyone. We will ship the goods as soon as possible to ensure that every customer receives their desired product quickly. Thank you again for your support!"
The comments section exploded.
"Lord Orochimaru is so handsome and dotes on his fans!"
"Lord Orochimaru is so kind! I was just on the payment screen, about to pay, when he reminded me that the goods were sold out. I was so upset. Now it seems that Lord Orochimaru is indeed a good person!"
"I've decided, I'll become Lord Orochimaru fan from now on!"
In an instant, the reviews were overwhelmingly positive, and several wealthy women even directly tipped the carnival prize.
Orochimaru appears on the surface to be a refined and gentle gentleman, but in reality, his heart is already surging with excitement like a turbulent sea.
He never expected that the beauty and skin-nourishing potion he casually concocted would be so popular!
He was a male ninja who didn't pay much attention to or pursue his appearance.
Therefore, he originally planned to throw away these medicinal liquids as waste.
However, at that moment, Kimimaro suddenly had a brilliant idea and told him some amazing news—these potions could be resold through live streaming, and at a considerable price!
At first, Orochimaru was skeptical of Kimimaro's words, even thinking he was just teasing him. After all, he had never considered that these potions would have any commercial value.
However, after witnessing firsthand the sales of the medicine during the live stream, he finally believed Kimimaro's words.
He suddenly realized that those beauty and skin-nourishing benefits he didn't care about might be priceless treasures in the eyes of other women!
After all, not everyone in this world is as indifferent to their appearance as he is.
Whether they were female ninjas, noblewomen, or female workers, many of them cared a great deal about their appearance and were willing to spend a lot of money and time to maintain and beautify themselves.
The second batch of 30,000 bottles of potion sold out in 2 minutes. Orochimaru overwhelmed with excitement, looking at the amount of donations and the money he made from the potion!
Just then, Uchiha Kō called him. Orochimaru was taken aback, then laughed and said, "Brothers and sisters, since all the stock has been sold out, Orochimaru is about to end the broadcast. I hope all the viewers in the live stream become more and more beautiful!"
After saying that, Kimimaro turned off the live streaming equipment, then breathed a sigh of relief and immediately gave Orochimaru a thumbs up. Orochimaru smiled and said, "Kimimaro, thank you for your hard work. Don't worry, I will cure your bloodline disease as soon as possible."
Kimimaro was deeply moved. He Earthly Dao, "Lord Orochimaru Kimimaro greatest honor to serve you!"
Orochimaru patted his hair. "Go on, get some rest first."
Kimimaro agreed and then withdrew. Orochimaru then answered Uchiha Kō's call, "Hello? Owl-kun, what brings you here!"
"Hehe, Lord Orochimaru has quite the methods, making tens of millions in such a short time!" Uchiha Kō, though seemingly uninterested in the wine, offered his insightful comment.
"Ahem, it's all thanks to the Lord Hokage for unifying the Ninja World and popularizing mobile phones that I have such a large platform to showcase myself and, incidentally, earn a little pocket money!" Orochimaru flattered.
Uchiha Kō suddenly realized, "Oh, I see. So that means I also deserve some credit for this?" He asked with a smile.
Orochimaru's expression froze. He wondered if there was something wrong with his ears, why was he hearing such absurd words?
"Lord Owl, how much do you want?" Orochimaru asked. Owl thought for a moment and said, "Ten percent of the net profit."
Orochimaru breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said, "I've seen how much effort the Lord Hokage has put into the affairs of Konoha! From now on, one-tenth of all my assets will be given to the Lord Hokage Orochimaru!"
Uchiha Kō was taken aback for a moment, then realized that Orochimaru was indeed no simple man!
"Alright, in that case, from now on, all departments of the Konoha government will give your company the green light. As long as there are no problems with the product quality, they will prioritize handling your issues." Uchiha Kō also offered practical benefits.
Orochimaru's eyes lit up; this money was well spent! You see, every product has to go through layers of screening before it can be listed, which consumes a lot of manpower, resources, and money.
If you can get special treatment in these procedures, a mere 10% profit is nothing.
"Thank you, Lord Hokage!" Orochimaru said.
"I should thank you for creating so much value and wealth for Konoha!" Uchiha Kō said sincerely.
Orochimaru smiled and said, "It's all Lord Hokage for giving me knowledge and providing me with many ideas; otherwise, I wouldn't be where I am today."
Uchiha Kō sighed, "Any breakthroughs in standard-issue weapons lately?"
Orochimaru remained silent for a moment, then said, "Lord Hokage, the research and manufacture of standard weapons is no small expense. Although they are successfully developed, putting them into production will consume a considerable amount of resources."
"Furthermore, standard weapons only cause trouble for ninjas of Chunin and below. They are ineffective against Jonin. Do we really want to research such a thing?" Orochimaru said slowly.
Uchiha Kō rubbed his temples. "Of course I know what you're saying, but there's one advantage he has that you haven't considered."
"That means even an ordinary civilian, without chakra, could harm Chunin if they picked up a standard weapon."
"After all, there are only a few Genin; most are ordinary people. If we can enable these ordinary people to unleash their power, then in the event of war, when the enemy is poor, they can engage in fixed-point firing; when they are rich, they can provide firepower cover. I imagine even the Jonin would perish!" Uchiha Kō, his eyes shining.
Tens of thousands of civilians, armed with semi-automatic rifles, fought large numbers of enemies on the battlefield – the scene was truly spectacular.
Orochimaru was deeply shocked by the scenery described by Uchiha Kō. He never imagined that Uchiha Kō was developing standard weapons to make the people a fighting force for Konoha!
Indeed, as Uchiha Kō said, wealth brings firepower coverage, and the power of these bullets far surpasses that of Shuriken.
If a magazine contains thirty bullets, then ten thousand people would receive three hundred thousand bullets, which can be converted into Shuriken.
Even if the Third Raikage were alive, he probably couldn't withstand it!
Yet, the damage was inflicted by ordinary people and those standard-issue weapons!
But Orochimaru quickly snapped out of his reverie and said, "Lord Owl, we don't have enough iron ore nearby to make tens of thousands of firearms..."
This is the most practical problem: even if you emptied all the iron in Konoha, you still couldn't make tens of thousands of guns. Uchiha Kō frowned.
After much deliberation, he said, "I'll figure out a way to deal with the iron ore."
After saying that, Uchiha Kō hung up the phone and began to think. He was now racking his brains to improve Konoha's strength.
