The Heiress's Second Chance At Vengeance (Eliza) novel Chapter 106

Chapter 106 A Price War

“How much is it?”

Naomi: “Three hundred per box.”

As soon as that price was dropped, the group chat exploded.

“Three hundred a box? That’s insane! Even the priciest ones outside are only two hundred!”

“This stuff wasn’t even expensive to begin with. Back when it wasn’t scarce, it was only ten or twenty bucks. Naomi, this is robbery.”

“Exactly. Some online stores are only charging a hundred. Who can afford this?”

Hearing the complaints flood in, Naomi wasn’t bothered at all.

Naomi: “These things are scarce now. If you have other sources, go find them. Mine are three hundred a box–that’s already the friends‘ price. In a few days, my parents are raising the price again.”

Once they heard the price would go up, a few people privately messaged Naomi, planning to order two boxes.

But before long, Eliza made a post in the school’s larger group chat.

Eliza: “Scarce supplies. Special meds at 150 a box, masks at 100. DM me if interested.”

Naomi wasn’t in that group, so she didn’t see Eliza’s message.

She’d just taken a shower, fully expecting a stream of classmates to come begging her for medicine.

But when she came back, she found only a few messages.

And they were from the same people who had contacted her earlier.

Now they were all asking for their deposits back, saying they weren’t buying anymore.

Naomi froze.

Not buying anymore?

Why not? Everything was fine just a moment ago.

Unwilling to give up, Naomi messaged them all:

Naomi: “If you don’t buy now, don’t come crying later. These meds and masks aren’t easy to get!”

“Not buying. Three hundred’s too steep. Eliza’s selling them for 150.”

The moment she saw that Eliza was selling at 150, Naomi’s mind went blank.

That kind of medicine… for 150 a box?

Wasn’t Eliza losing money?

From what Naomi understood, those meds and masks were not only expensive, but practically unavailable.

How could Eliza sell them for so cheap?

Meanwhile, at the warehouse, Eliza looked down at the flood of messages from classmates placing orders.

She smiled.

Evelyn had bought her inventory at 4,000 a case–meaning the cost per box was 160.

Selling for 150 would mean a loss.

That was a price Naomi could never offer, unless she wanted to lose money.

And knowing how greedy Evelyn and Naomi were, they’d never agree to that.

Which meant the batch Evelyn and Naomi bought? From this moment on, it wouldn’t sell.

Eliza, on the other hand, had stocked up before the flu outbreak hit.

Back then, clearance sales had dropped the price to under ten bucks a box.

Even selling at 150, she still cleared a profit of 140 per unit.

No matter how she sold it, Eliza wouldn’t lose money.

Let’s see how Naomi plans to move her stock now.

Over at the Rivers household, Naomi was in full panic mode.

She ran straight to Evelyn’s room.

“Mom, did you sell any of the medicine yet?”

“Of course!”

Evelyn was beaming. Her social media circle was full of wealthy women–they had money to burn.

The moment they heard she had medicine, they jumped to buy.

Price wasn’t even a concern.

“How much are you selling it for?”

“Two hundred a box. Everyone’s ordering dozens!”

Evelyn was surprised how easy it had been.

At this rate, they’d be sold out in no time.

When Naomi heard the price was only two hundred, she quickly decided to offer her classmates that rate

100. 100.

But just as she pulled out her phone, Evelyn asked, “By the way, didn’t any of your classmates want to buy? It’s been ages.”

“…Yeah, of course. They did.” Naomi’s expression stiffened. “I–I’m replying to them right now, Mom. I’ll tell you in a bit.”

“Okay!”

Before Evelyn could say more, Naomi rushed out of the room.
