Fake socialites sell me fake luxury, but I can make the fake look real.

Chapter 56 I don't make money off the poor, but I do make money off my competitors!

Around 3 p.m., Lü Yang was busy working out and was covered in sweat when there was another knock on the door. He quickly put on his coat and went out. A stylish young woman came in and, after browsing around the store, her eyes landed on a Gucci Dionysus bag.

This bag was purchased by Lü Yang just yesterday. On the secondhand market, a brand new Gucci Dionysus costs only around 20,000 yuan, while this one, in average condition, was only 14,000 yuan. After a simple system refurbishment, it is now displayed on the counter with shiny hardware and the leather restored to its original luster, looking just like new.

"Handsome boss, how much is this Dionysus?"

The girl, holding her bag, looked at the tall and imposing Lü Yang in front of her, and her eyes lit up immediately. Even her voice became sweeter.

Lu Yang walked over and skillfully took out the bag for her to try on, then complimented her, "Beautiful lady, you have excellent taste. The color scheme of this bag matches your style perfectly. It normally sells for around 21,000 outside, but since we're here, I'll give you a discount—19,000!"

Upon hearing this, the girl looked in the mirror and compared herself to the mirror. The more she looked, the more she liked it, and she immediately and readily chose to scan the code to pay.

"Thank you, boss. I'll definitely come back here to buy a bag when I need one again."

Before leaving, the girl added Lü Yang as a friend, and then reluctantly departed. Without Lü Yang even asking, she offered to recommend him.

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang smiled and waved to see his guest off.

Looking at the WeChat message showing another 19,000 yuan had been deposited, Lü Yang stroked his chin.

Buy 14,000 and sell 19,000; you can make about 5,000 yuan profit by reselling.

"actually……"

"If I could get a dozen or so of these cheap bags, the turnover would be huge, and I could make a good profit!"

A thought flashed through Lü Yang's mind: before he was bound to the system, he generally didn't want these kinds of affordable or entry-level luxury items.

First of all, Lv Yang's positioning is a high-end second-hand store, or even a top-tier luxury second-hand store.

The store itself isn't very big. If it's filled with bags that cost ten or twenty thousand yuan, it will not only take up space but also lower the store's overall style.

Furthermore, Lu Yang previously focused on affordability, and the profit margin for these bags wasn't large to begin with. If he let customers make more money, he would only earn a meager wage, or even lose money. As for giving customers red envelopes, how much to give out was a problem.

Later, when the system came out, Lü Yang never thought about it in this direction. After all, these bags were too cheap, and there were relatively few high-quality replicas. They cost 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. If he wanted to buy a high-quality replica, the price would only be lower after he sold it. He generally wouldn't sell it.

As for relying on system refurbishment, it can't compare to a big order like Hermès.

A single Hermès order can cost two or three hundred thousand, or even four or five hundred thousand. How many Gucci bags would it take to earn that much?

However, if we think about it from a different perspective, it's not impossible. Lu Yang already has a dedicated customer base, including quite a few high-end clients. If he were to develop some low-end clients, he could simply go and collect cheap, worn-out bags that are guaranteed to be authentic. After refurbishing them all at once using the system, he could earn three or four thousand yuan per bag. Ten bags would amount to thirty or forty thousand yuan, which could even cover a month's loan repayment. That's not a small amount.

Furthermore, with Bai Su and Song Ya as major clients, Lü Yang had one or two million in cash on hand, enough to buy thousands of bags without any problem.

He'll just hold a clearance sale, selling each bag at 90% of the secondhand market price.

Give me a large portion that will fill you up.

If he sells it at a 10% discount, he won't even need to wait for individual customers to come to him; the scalpers in the secondhand market alone will be unable to sit still and will rush to his place to buy up all the goods.

"I'm not selling bags to make money off poor people. I'll only sell to those who have money."

In Shanghai, when it comes to the secondhand luxury goods industry, who's the richest? It's definitely your fellow professionals!

Making money off your competitors is another way to get rich.

Furthermore, if luxury brands ever go bankrupt, it can also help them vent their frustrations from last year.

As for the luxury goods industry, if it really collapses, it has nothing to do with the pure and innocent Mr. Lü. He just wants every girl to be able to afford luxury goods, so what's wrong with that?

Lu Yang gave a light hum and began waiting for the next customer to arrive.

"..."

In the blink of an eye, another two days have passed.

That evening, after finishing his get off work as usual, Lü Yang calculated the days. It had been almost a month since he took the first Great Rejuvenation Pill. It didn't matter if it was less than a month, as Lü Yang had been diligently exercising during this time and could withstand the effects of the medicine. He closed the shop door, went back to the inner room, took out a Great Rejuvenation Pill that emitted a strange fragrance, exhaled a long breath, and swallowed it.

The moment the Great Rejuvenation Pill entered the stomach, an unexpected change occurred.

"boom!"

In an instant, Lü Yang felt as if a ball of fire exploded in his abdomen, and a warm current spread through his limbs and bones, as if it were going to reforge his flesh and bones.

"hiss!"

Lu Yang gasped for breath, gritted his teeth, and without daring to delay, immediately took off his clothes and rushed towards the exercise equipment.

At this moment, Lü Yang felt that only through high-intensity training could he fully integrate this violent medicinal power into himself.

Lü Yang tried bench presses, squats, and various other high-intensity exercises one after another, and sweat poured down like broken drops of water, soaking the entire floor.

After four hours of training, it wasn't until 9 p.m. that Lü Yang felt the warm current in his body begin to subside.

After finishing his workout, Lü Yang walked to the full-length mirror, looked up, and was momentarily stunned by his own reflection.

The man in the mirror had undergone a qualitative change in his physique. If he was just strong before, his physique could now be described as perfect. He had broad shoulders, solid pectoral muscles, and his waist and abdomen were clearly defined as if sculpted by a knife and axe, without an ounce of excess fat.

Lu Yang exuded an aura of intense pressure and explosive power, like a perfect statue of the ancient Greek god of war, flawless in every way.

"Wonderful..."

Looking at himself in the mirror, Lü Yang's lips curled into a wicked smile: "When I encounter this group of vixens again, who will be my match?"

After taking a shower, Lü Yang went straight to sleep.

Four hours of non-stop high-intensity workout left even Lü Yang feeling quite tired.

The following day at noon, after closing his shop, Lü Yang went to a high-end buffet restaurant, ready to have a hearty meal.

After taking the Great Rejuvenation Pill, Lü Yang's body underwent a qualitative change. He found that his appetite had increased significantly. The poor takeout food melted in his mouth and could not satisfy his appetite at all. If he really relied on takeout food to fill his stomach, he could support two or three dedicated delivery riders in the area by himself. While Lü Yang was eating, a vibration came from his pocket.

Lu Yang took it out and saw that it was a message from Bai Su.

Bai Su: [Brother Lü Yang, are you going to the gym?]

Looking at this message, Lü Yang's lips curled into a playful smile. Last night, he had just taken his second Great Rejuvenation Pill, making him feel as strong as steel. He was looking for a friend to test his combat skills.

Unexpectedly, before I could even make a move, the other party delivered themselves to my doorstep, and they are currently the most powerful fighter.

Thinking of this, Lü Yang replied directly.

Lü Yang: [Go!]
