Chapter 513: Day rush
Early in the morning, before the sun had even risen, Michael had Jimmy and the rest of his crew come down to his room to discuss their current situation.
Of course, he told them about the dire situation that they were in.
"What is the ranking we need to participate in the auction?"
Jimmy stifled a yawn and muttered; "at least in the top 400."
Now, in Jimmy’s opinion, the Reborn company was already in the top 400 of the rankings. However, the Daily Metro, the newspaper company who decides the ranking for the Golden 500, refused to accept his articles about the Reborn company’s feats in the Kings region.
"I’ve asked around and was able to find out that the 400th company is able to accomplish about 5,000 sales in a day. I think that as long as we surpass that sale, I’ll be able to prove to the Daily Metro that we can get that 400th spot."
Castelle looked at the papers in her folder and spoke up.
"If it’s just 5,000 sales in a day, then we already accomplished that. Reborn is still popular in the Upperwood District because of the festival. Once we announce to them that we’ve opened our doors, we can expect double that amount in half a day."
Jimmy shook his head. "I’m afraid that’s not going to work. We only have one day—scratch that, we only have about 18 hours to get that ranking. If we’re given enough time, then I can easily convince the Daily Metro to give us the appropriate ranking.
But if we demand them to change our rankings within a few hours, we’ll really have to show them that we deserve that spot, without a shadow of a doubt. If we just do the bare minimum, they won’t accept it. We need to make a splash. We need to blow our competition out of the water so much so that they’ll be forced to give us that ranking."
Michael only had one day to reach that goal.
