After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 827

The Gold siblings finally revealed their items and immediately affected the market, at least for their strata in society.

It got to the point that a lot of parties regretted not following them where they went.

No one had the resources to just keep tracking other people’s movements, even if it was the Golds. Plus, being detected could put a strain on the family relations so no one did so.

Hmn, maybe next time.

Anyway, the shops were flourishing. This was especially true for the ones with the space stones like Olga and Otto, who brought out a lot.

For Otto, he opened a special one-day-only event in his store where he would be selling his items. He was selling them for 20 times to price (or more, depending on how difficult it would be for others to procure).

It might be a bit much (he had been fondly called by a few Alterrans as the Golden Profiteer), but these were novelties so he didn’t think too much of it.

This shop, called ’Land of Curiosities’, was his favorite store. Here, he would sell some of the things he got from traveling around so many territories.

With huge markup, of course.

It had to be noted that, even after traveling so much, he had only landed on a small fraction of the human territory. Even after years of creating his caravan, this remained the truth, and he did want to explore it a bit more.

Fortunately, their lifespans were long and exploring farther was possible to do within his life.

His shop was large and expensive, more than 5000 square feet. Before, the place would display something in the middle, usually something from a distant land people here rarely saw.

More often than not, it would take up a huge space, though sometimes these things were just unique in appearance, but nothing special in function. People still bought though because of the status implications.

Otto knew Alterra’s products were different.

They were not only novel, but they were also functional, which made them all the more valuable.

He was inspired by the set-up of the stores in Alterra. Of course, it wasn’t that energetic. Rather, he would add something more comfortable to nobles.

Because of his selling price, his items were only accessible to nobles and rich people for now. His stock was limited after all (his space stone was the smallest one), and even if he wanted to pick a few lucky commoners, he would feel stingy.

Anyway, for his purpose, he arranged the hall into something like an auction house with items displayed in a specific area to be appreciated on their own.

There were high-class well-dressed and handsome chefs giving out the free tastes for the sauces, and each section had one good-looking and charming person to explain.

Other novelty items like puzzles, stuffed toys, and the like were on another side, and there was also a demo area for the guests to try.

He also made a maximum capacity of shoppers who could go in at a time. It was for relaxed buying, so people wouldn’t feel too cramped, and he also implemented a very strict purchase limit.

Anyway, his shop understandably was incredibly lively with his patrons practically throwing money at him.

"This is delicious!" one said, closing his eyes as he tasted the biscuit with peanut butter.

"This is meat I bought, but the flavor was really brought out!" Another said, referring to adding a drop of soy sauce in their dried meat.

"The taste has been elevated by several levels…" another said, appreciating the taste of the new sauces.

It really wasn’t anything they had tasted before!

These were just a few of the exclamations and Otto received several compliments as he went around. After the food, he went to the toys and puzzles and even adults enjoyed them.

His lips twitched when he recalled these were for kids and, in Alterra, it was mostly small children playing around with them. Seeing adults look at them with reverence was a little funny.
