"Huh!" Liu Yuchang exhaled and stood up. The banquet last night didn't end until late at night. When he returned to the cave, he sat cross-legged and refined the spiritual food and wine he had eaten in his belly. These spiritual objects contained a large amount of living energy. Practicing is extremely beneficial. It replenishes energy and strengthens energy. One night is better than practicing for several days.
"Yue'er! What are you doing?" Liu Yu took advantage of her energy, spread out the talisman paper, and drew four fifth-grade protective talismans in succession. After putting down the pen, she walked out of the stone room. Thinking of going to the front hall to drink a cup of herbal tea, she found Yue'er sitting there. Standing next to the stone table, he was looking at an account book and making calculations. The stone table was also piled with thick spiritual tickets of different denominations.
"Master, sit down quickly! Have some tea first, these accounts will be ordered in a moment!" Liu Yuer immediately poured a cup of hot tea for Liu Yu, and then continued to count the accounts. The account books recorded the records of Yufu Tower in the past six months. To manage the accounts, now that Master is back, the Jade Talisman Tower will be returned to Master.
"Is this the store's account?" Liu Yuqing sipped her tea and asked casually.
"Yes, Master!" Liu Yue'er nodded while calculating.
"How much revenue can the store bring in each month now, and what is the profit?" Liu Yu couldn't help but asked curiously. He remembered that when he was in charge of Yufu Tower, the total monthly revenue was about 200,000 low-level spiritual stones, and the profit was about 40,000. , about 10,000 of which were earned by Brother Xuanhan from selling pills on consignment.
"Every month, the store sells all kinds of magic talismans, elixirs, magic weapons and some collected spiritual materials for a total of about 350,000 yuan. The total profit last month was 65,436 yuan." Lingshi, Master Xuanhan's elixir profit is more than 16,000 yuan. After deducting the monthly salary of the clerk and the sales tax and nursing fees provided to the sect, the net profit is 42,928 yuan. Stone." Liu Yue'er pointed at the account book and said.
"So many!" Liu Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Thanks to the high-level spiritual talismans that Yue'er was taught to Yue'er when she visited the master last time, especially the "Spirit Gathering Talisman", which has become the store's signature and is quite profitable."
"The best-selling item is the fourth-grade "Spirit Gathering Talisman". Each one in the store sells for 7,500 yuan of low-level spirit stones. One piece can earn you 1,000 yuan. We can steadily sell about two sets per month, which is more than ten pieces. ." Speaking of this, Liu Yue'er couldn't help but said excitedly.
I remember that when Master first went to Beihai, she and Sister Zhi were given the responsibility to take care of the Jade Talisman Building. For a long time, the business in the store was extremely bleak, and they could not sell a few charms in a day. They all relied on the elixirs consigned by Uncle Xuanhan. Hold on.
Because after Master left, the store's inventory of third- and fourth-grade high-quality spiritual talismans was quickly sold out. At that time, she had not yet mastered the drawing of third-grade spiritual talismans. Not only was the success rate of the talismans low, but the quality was also unsatisfactory. The business in the store could not It's weird.
It wasn't until Liu Yue'er succeeded in building the foundation that things gradually improved. As Liu Yue'er improved her skills and cultivation of talismans, mastered more types of high-level talismans, and improved the success rate and quality of talismans, the business of Jade Talisman Tower gradually improved. Get better.
As an old store with more than 200 years of history, Yufulou has always had a good reputation and reputation in the sect. It is cheap and good-quality, and has a group of regular customers. However, Liuxian Town is so big, and the business later became smaller than that of Shizun. It was better back then, until Liu Yue'er mastered the "Spirit Gathering Talisman" and "Spirit Gathering Talisman Formation" taught by Liu Yu.
The "Spirit Gathering Talisman Array" uses talismans as the basis of the array to absorb and gather free spiritual energy from all around to aid cultivation. It attracted frantic buying as soon as it went on sale. Although the spiritual energy of the mountain gate is rich, this array can only be regarded as the icing on the cake, but if it is sent down the mountain, this array It is of great significance. It is effective in assisting practice in places with thin spiritual energy. It can be said to be a must-have for downhill practice.
Although the effectiveness and scope of the talisman array are slightly inferior to common spiritual gathering arrays constructed with magic weapons, spiritual spells, and battle arrays, they are superior in that they are low in cost, simple and easy to arrange, and a set of five fourth-grade "spirit gathering talismans". You can set up a talisman array by consuming some spiritual dust, and it only costs about 40,000 low-level spiritual stones.
Of course, this array also has disadvantages, that is, it uses talismans as the array. Spirit talismans are items that are subject to wear and tear. They are not as long-lasting as the weapon array. After the common spirit-gathering array is deployed, it only needs someone to maintain it and it can run for a long time.
The "Spirit Gathering Talisman" is a consumable item. A fourth-grade "Spirit Gathering Talisman" can only last for ten years at most before it expires.
In other words, if you want to run the spirit-gathering talisman array all year round, you need to replace it with a new batch of talismans every ten years. This also gives Yufu Tower a stable number of repeat customers.
That's why the business in the store has been so good in the past thirty years. The "Spirit Gathering Talisman" does not have to worry about sales like other high-end spiritual talismans.
"Not bad!" Liu Yu couldn't help but smile. In fact, he also guessed that the "Spirit Gathering Talisman" would sell well in Liuxian Town.
Because this talisman is different from other high-level spiritual talismans, there is no need to worry about the sales of this talisman with the hundreds of foundation-building disciples in the sect. This is why Liu Yu specially told Yue'er to master this talisman as soon as possible when he taught it to Yue'er. reason.
"Okay! The store's accounts have been counted by Yue'er. These spiritual tickets are the store's savings. There are a total of 3,866,400 low-level spiritual stones. Master, please keep them!" Liu Yue'er counted the accounts. He pointed at the stacks of spiritual tickets piled on the table that had been separated according to their face value, and said.
"There could have been more. Last month, my second senior uncle Xuan Kui gave birth to a daughter. Yue'er gave a gift of three hundred thousand yuan. Senior brother went down the mountain to take up a post at the "Northern Guard Outpost". Yue'er made the decision and asked senior brother to bring one million. Senior Brother Don’t blame Yue’er!” Liu Yue’er continued.
"Master, how can I blame you! The Jade Talisman Building was originally left to you by the master to earn daily practice expenses. Wang Ping went to the "Northern Guard Outpost" alone to take up a post, so he really needs more supplies. Some spirit stones, there is no need to hand these spirit tickets to my master, I have no shortage of spirit stones, so hurry up and collect them!" Liu Yu took a sip of tea and said to Liu Yue'er.
Over the years, Liu Yu had been drawing talismans for the sect in the Ghost Forest, and had saved a huge amount of money. Not to mention the "Yinfeng Thorn", it was enough to maintain the elixirs needed for his daily practice every month.
The main one is the "Five Poison Exploding Miasma Talisman". Every time a sect is drawn, the sect will be rewarded with twenty intermediate spiritual stones, which is ten thousand low-level spiritual stones. Because of this talisman, Liu Yu now has 888 spiritual tickets in his storage bag. More than 100,000.
This is because the spiritual materials required to draw the "Five Poison Exploding Miasma Talisman" are too rare. Except in the past few years, when the sect's internal warehouse had sufficient spiritual materials, Liu Yu drew more than a hundred of them in one go and made a lot of money.
In the future, more than a dozen paintings will be drawn every year. The spiritual materials for these dozen paintings were purchased by the sect from other areas outside Yunzhou with great effort.
"Yue'er, Senior Brother Wang Ping, and Tianci are able to cultivate today. Thanks to Master's care, he left the Talisman Shop to support Yue'er and others' cultivation. Yue'er now works in the Holy Talisman Hall, and Tianci serves as a guard deacon in Liuxian Town. , Senior Brother has gone to the outpost and can take care of himself in cultivation. Now that Master is back, the Talisman Store must be returned to Master."
"Furthermore, Master has been promoted to the Eight Prefectures. In the future, he will need a lot of spiritual stones to condense Yuan Dan, practice daily, and prepare for the tribulation. Master, you'd better put it away quickly!" With that, Liu Yue'er took out a deed, it was Liu Yue'er back then. The Yu trustee brought back the deed of the Yufu Tower store of the sect.
"As I said, I am not short of spiritual stones, and I am a master. You also know that it is inconvenient to show up more often, and you will have to retreat in a few days. You, Yue'er, will still take care of the Talisman Shop on my behalf." Liu Yu said with a wry smile.
"Okay! But Master must accept these spirit tickets!" Liu Yue'er could only give up and took back the store deed in his hand.
"Hey! You girl, you can keep it for now. When I don't have enough money, I will ask you to get it. By the way, these "Shadow Wind Thorn" talismans were painted by me, and they were taken together and sold in the store!" Liu Yu took out a stack of "Shadow Wind Thorns" and said that these were all drawn by him when he was in the ghost forest, and there were nearly a hundred more in the storage bag.
"Then Yue'er will keep it for Master first!" Hearing what Liu Yu said, Liu Yue'er smiled and started to pack away the table full of spiritual tickets and the "Yinfeng Thorn" talisman that Liu Yu took out.
"Don't you have to go to the Holy Talisman Hall today?" Liu Yu couldn't help but asked casually when he saw that the sun was three shots outside the cave and it was almost noon.
"Oh! Yue'er took a day off. Master has not returned to Huangsheng Mountain for many years, and he definitely wants to take a good look at the mountain gate. Today, Yue'er will go shopping with Master!" Liu Yue'er said while packing up the table full of spiritual tickets.
"I'll go out with my master later!" Just yesterday, Senior Brother Xuanhan said that there is a high-quality stone room in Huangling Cave that will be available in a few days, so he was asked to prepare for seclusion. After a while, he was going to go to Huangri Temple. , exchange for some elixirs that condense the "Yuanmingyuan Dan".
…
There are many sect disciples lined up in front of several windowsills of Huangbaotang. This is where the sect disciples exchange their contribution points for various cultivation materials. People come and go every day. Liu Yu came to the lobby wearing a mask and accompanied by Yue'er. , there is a tea room on one side of the lobby specially designed for Zhujimen people to exchange gifts.
There is a rest area in the tea room with several sets of tea tables and tea sets. There is an exchange area in the back, where two female disciples are seated. There is a wide desk at the back with "household plate jade plate" and "floating light" on it. A set of spiritual utensils composed of "jade walls". Sitting behind the desk is a beautiful woman in a gauze skirt, who is the steward of the room.
"Yue'er is here!" Seeing Liu Yue'er walk in, the beautiful woman sitting behind the desk stood up with a smile and greeted her.
"Sister Lan is here!" Liu Yue'er also smiled and walked forward. Judging from the intimate behavior of the two, they must have a good relationship on weekdays.
"Who is this?" Seeing a masked Taoist beside Liu Yue'er, the woman couldn't help but ask.
"This is Senior Brother Xuanting, here to redeem some pills!" Liu Yuer introduced, then pointed at the beautiful woman and said: "This is Sister Lan, her Taoist name is Weilan!"
"I've met Senior Brother Xuanting!" the woman said with a smile.
"Oh! Xuan Ting is so polite!" Liu Yu came back to his senses and hurriedly replied. When he saw this woman, Liu Yu couldn't help but was startled because he saw an old friend in front of him. She was none other than Senior Sister Fang. Her appearance and temperament had changed a lot. , making Liu Yu unable to recognize it for a moment.
In the impression, this woman has bright eyes and white teeth, and a delicate face with melon seeds. She has the unique beauty of Jiangnan women. But now she has a fair face and plump body, and she is a dignified and gorgeous woman.
"Senior Brother Xuanting, sit down!" Fang Lanlan led the two of them to the desk inside and sat down, preparing to receive them personally.
"Here!" Liu Yu sat down and immediately took out his sect token and handed it over.
"I don't know that Senior Brother Xuanting wants to exchange it..." Fang Lanlan took the jade order from the sect and put it on the "Household Jade Plate" skillfully. She was about to ask Senior Brother Xuanting what pills he wanted to exchange for, when he saw the jade order. After seeing the information displayed on the wall, I was shocked and speechless.
Name Liu Qingsheng Road name Xuanting
Master Xuan Bei
spiritual root attribute soil
Cultivation to build the foundation of the Eight Prefectures
Residence: Huang Rifeng Banyao Cave Mansion
No position
Contribution points: 8,526,730 points
Task None
Such a large number of contribution points can only be seen when receiving the few senior stewards of the sect or the Jindan elders. Who is the mysterious Taoist with the cold iron mask in front of him? The sound gave her the illusion that she had heard it somewhere before.
"What pills do you want to exchange for, senior brother?" Fang Lanlan said after a slow breath.
"The poor Taoist will be staying in the Zhufu Stone Room in a few days. He will be in seclusion to concentrate on the "Original Pill" and come to exchange for some auxiliary pills!" Liu Yu immediately said his intention.
"It turns out that senior brother is going to be in seclusion to condense the "original elixir". Congratulations first! Senior brother, you know, the sect will give a benefit of elixir condensation assistance to all the members of the sect who meet the conditions of seclusion to condense the elixir and purchase the fifth grade." The three elixirs, "Life Pill", "Huiyuan Pill", and "Blood Date Pill", no matter whether you buy them with spirit stones or exchange them with contribution points, the price is only half!"
"Little sister and senior brother tell me the exchange price of these three kinds of elixirs in the current sect. A fifth-grade "Life Pill" costs three thousand low-level spiritual stones, or one thousand contribution points. A fifth-grade "Huiyuan Pill" costs three thousand yuan. One thousand five hundred low-level spiritual stones, or one thousand four hundred contribution points."
"A fifth-grade "Blood Date Pill" costs 3,200 low-level spiritual stones, or 1,100 contribution points. Of course, the redemption price is halved, but the upper limit of the discounted quantity for each pill is 300 pills! More than 3,000 pills! Some of them do not enjoy the sect’s half-off discount!” Fang Lanlan introduced with a smile.
"Pindao knows! Help Pindao use his contribution points to exchange for three hundred pills of each pill!" These Liu Yu heard from Senior Brother Xuanhan yesterday, so they made this trip specifically today, otherwise Liu Yu would have the Hundred Apricot Order in his hand. Since he is the most distinguished guest of Bai Xing Lin, it is natural to go to Bai Xing Lin to buy elixirs.
"Senior brother, wait a minute! The elixir will be delivered shortly!" After some operations, Liu Yu's sect's jade order was reduced by 525,000 contribution points. Fang Lanlan returned the sect's jade order to Liu Yu and notified him at the same time. The pharmacy delivered nine hundred pills.
After about a stick of incense, several sect disciples came over with chopping boards and bottles of elixirs. After counting, Liu Yu put these elixirs, bottle by bottle, into his storage bag one by one, watching from the sidelines. The disciples of the sect were stunned, this senior was really extremely rich!
…
"What's this guy's background?" Xia Houyi's face was gloomy. He looked at Xuan Yue, that stinky bitch, who was helping the masked Taoist who suddenly appeared out of nowhere to pack a large amount of pills into bottles, and behaved in an intimate manner. He couldn't help but said irritably.
"Xuan Ting? I seem to have heard of this name, but I can't remember it for a moment!" A man in brocade clothes beside Xia Houyi thought for a moment, shook his head and said. However, judging from this Taoist's massive contribution to the sect, it can be seen that this person is definitely not a small role.
It turned out that when Liu Yu was exchanging pills, Xia Houyi and his friend Liu Mingyang, a direct disciple of the Liu family of the Northern Jin Dynasty, also visited the teahouse. They had nothing to do, but wanted to come and sit here.
The plump figure of the Zhou family's daughter-in-law in the exchange room is very eye-catching. The two of them have been coveting it for a long time. However, the Zhou family is powerful and has the support of the fourth elder Xuan Mu. The two of them have no intention and no courage, so they come here from time to time to pass by. addiction.
He didn't want to come here and meet the stinky bitch Xuan Yue. When Xia Houyi saw this stinky bitch, he couldn't help but hate her. He refused to propose marriage to him at first.
Later, I patiently tried to please and invite her in every possible way, but I didn't expect this stinky bitch to lose her good looks. One time, in front of many sect disciples, she bluntly said that Xia Houyi wanted to eat swan meat.
What makes Xia Houyi even more angry is that the backer behind this stinky bitch is also the fourth elder Xuanmu, and his own father specifically warned him not to mess around, and he will reap the rewards if he causes trouble.
