Gross profit is just gross profit.
Just because various costs have not been deducted yet.
Raw materials?
This is actually not much. The raw material of Chalcedony Pill is only five spiritual stones.
Even if it rose to six yuan due to the impact of the war, it would only be a drizzle.
In addition to the losses he incurred in refining Jade Dew Pill, Tongyou Pill and other elixirs at a loss... the total cost was only 40,000 spirit stones.
In terms of rent, Danxia Palace rents 5,000 spiritual stones per year.
There will be no price increase for the time being. He and Ice Castle are still in the honeymoon period and can continue to get this preferential price.
The main cost expenditure is labor!
After working hard to refine elixirs for a year, it can be said that the monks in the Alchemy Hall are almost exhausted.
In this case, Luo Chen will definitely give a lot of rewards in addition to the basic salary.
These two halls alone consumed 60,000 spiritual stones in a year.
The war hall is responsible for protection and transportation, but there is no need to give rewards, just maintain the basic salary.
That’s about 60,000 spiritual stones a year.
Jintang is responsible for sales, which is the most important link besides refining!
In addition to the basic salary, Luo Chen did not give any rewards, but gave him commissions.
For every bottle of elixir sold, whether it was a chalcedony elixir or a crudely processed Peiyuan spirit liquid, he promised to give him a commission of two spiritual stones.
In view of the fact that there are not many female nuns in Jintang, their level is not high either.
After being given extremely high treatment, the expenditure cost was only 20,000 yuan.
"Calculated in this way, the cost of an ordinary monk is about 140,000. Including the cost of materials and rent, it is only 180,000."
"The ones who consume the most are the high-level monks."
For the senior officials of Luo Tianhui, the salary offered by Luo Chen was far higher than that of ordinary lower-level officials.
Not to mention existences like Sima Huiniang and Murong Qinglian.
Just like Zhou Yuanli, an old man like Liu Qiang only has three to four hundred spiritual stones a month.
Even so, the total of all nine levels of Qi Refining would cost 60,000 yuan a year!
You know, this group of people is actually the smallest group of people.
In addition, Wang Yuan and Duan Feng enjoyed the treatment of 3,000 spiritual stones for a month.
One person per year, at least 30,000 spiritual stones!
"After all these calculations, the annual expenditure is at least 300,000 spiritual stones!"
After settling this account!
Even if Luo Chen was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but be shocked.
No wonder Wang Haichao was so stingy back then and almost never gave fixed salaries to his monks.
No wonder Mi Shuhua didn't want to help Poshan help a second foundation-building cultivator, who would have to consume at least 30,000 to 40,000 spiritual stones a year.
How could an ordinary foundation-building force support such a huge cost?
Only he, Luo Chen, has this ability and courage!
If Wang Haichao were alive and saw Luo Chen being so generous, he would probably scold him for being short-minded.
However, Luo Chen sees things more clearly than anyone else.
These expenditures are extremely necessary.
Those people received the rewards they deserved.
Without their efforts, there would be no such huge income.
Not to mention anything else, Duan Feng gets 30,000 yuan a year. Is it a lot?
Not much at all!
First of all, he is a true cultivator of foundation building.
Secondly, Qitang's annual output income is 80,000 to 90,000 spiritual stones.
That 400,000 yuan is not just the income of Dantang.
Finally, after Duan Feng brings out the people from Qitang, he can still produce and sell his own goods, which is also a stable source of income.
As for Wang Yuan, is 30,000 yuan a year a lot?
It seems like he has nothing to produce, right?
However, along the way, Wang Yuan always provided Luo Tianhui with the guarantee of combat power.
In the battle of the Fu family, he was the one who broke through the impregnable fortress.
In the battle of Xiaohuan Mountain, he withstood Duan Qiankun's pressure head-on.
In the battle of Gaolingyuan, he jumped over the ranks and defeated Huo Hu.
When he stayed at Danxia Peak, he even killed Cao Wanchun brazenly to establish Luo Tianhui's authority.
It can be said that the 30,000 spiritual stones he takes for one year is too little.
If it were Chu Kui from Tianlan Immortal City, one move would start at 100,000!
Not to mention the various pointers Wang Yuan gave to Luo Chen along the way.
It is precisely because of this that Luo Chen offered Wang Yuan a high price for the foundation period.
As for the others?
In addition to their hard work, Luo Chen also suffered the hardships of low-level monks, so how could they not give them generous rewards.
What's more!
"After one year, I have a surplus of 100,000 spiritual stones!"
One hundred thousand!
Net income, pure profit, belongs to Luo Chen alone!
Which foundation-building casual cultivator can earn so many spiritual stones?
Even great monks like Chu Kui in the late stage of foundation building have to open their mouths to make hard-earned money, and they still have to see if there is a chance.
Even if the sect's foundation is established, it won't be able to reach this point.
This is a low-grade magic weapon once a year... no, you can even buy two or three!
This is the value that an alchemist, an alchemist with his own power, can create!
It can even be said that this is not the case where Luo Chen has launched an all-out alchemy mode.
What if it's full force?
If he doesn't get Jade Dew Pill, doesn't refine Tongyou Pill, and slightly reduces his practice time, the value he can create will be even greater.
However, Luo Chen would not put the cart before the horse like this.
even!
He also wanted to wait until Luo Tianhui got on the right track to save more time for practice.
How to get on the right track?
Hundreds of spiritual fields can all create profits!
Qitang can produce and sell it by itself!
In terms of Dantang, Qu Lingjun and Mi Li have grown up and can take charge of their own affairs.
Even Zhantang, Sima Huiniang and Sima Xian have recently joined forces and are planning to find some side jobs for them.
Don’t say anything else.
Those spiritual fields must be planted with manpower!
There are dozens of powerful late-stage Qi-refining monks in the war hall. They have nothing to do. It would be a good idea to learn the two-handed spiritual planting technique and go farming!
Farming in your spare time, rolling up your sleeves and fighting in wartime, this is the healthy war hall operating model!
Practice every day?
No matter what a group of monks in the Qi refining stage can do, they are afraid of overdoing it and damaging their brains.
It can be said that Luo Chen's plans for the future are very clear and very targeted.
At that time, Luo Tianhui's income will no longer rely solely on the current elixir hall and cheap weapon halls.
Thinking too far ahead.
Take back your thoughts.
Luo Chen began to calculate how to maximize the use of this huge spiritual stone.
Invest in yourself!
For one hundred thousand yuan, you can almost buy a low-grade magic weapon at will.
Even if you add a little more, you can try to get a middle-grade magic weapon.
But he would never do that!
He already has two magic weapons.
And it’s both offensive and defensive.
No matter how many magic weapons there are, no matter how high the grade is, he can't use them at his level in the foundation building stage.
Improving your practice is the most important thing.
"Perhaps we can consider changing to another cave."
Luo Chen recalled the second-level high-grade caves of Tantaixi and Ling Yuzhi.
That was an existence with double the concentration of spiritual energy compared to the Lower Grade Cave Mansion.
If he can practice in this environment, his cultivation speed will definitely be greatly improved!
However, there is no free second-level high-grade cave, which leaves him with nowhere to spend his money.
"Purchase other resources useful for practice?"
Luo Chen calmed down and planned to take some time to visit the major shops in the city.
There must be a lot of good stuff inside that he doesn't know about.
Existences like Taibaijiu!
You can also take a look around Wanbao Tower.
I heard that a new flying boat has recently been launched, which can travel inland in the fairy city. It seems to be a simplified version of his Langqi flying boat.
As soon as Fu came on the market, it was sought after by monks.
With the research and development capabilities of Wanbao Tower, there will definitely be sales of auxiliary magic tools for the cultivation of foundation-building monks.
"Boom!"
A slight sound sounded.
Luo Chen woke up from his meditation and took a quick look.
It was Xu Xiaoliu who had stood for a long time, and naturally, he touched the wall behind him.
"President, I'm sorry..."
"fine!"
Luo Chen smiled. He knew that he had been thinking for too long.
Looking at the two of them, Luo Chen admired:
"You've been doing very well recently!"
Xu Xiaoliu scratched the back of his head and chuckled, "President, you still have a good idea. As soon as that flyer came out, even though our Danxia Palace is so remote, some guests came to visit us."
"Why didn't we think of this before?"
Luo Chen pursed his lips and smiled.
It's just a flyer, it's nothing.
It's just that the monk couldn't help but do it.
Xu Xiaoliu was not bad either. After he proposed the leaflet, he drew inferences from one example and proposed to engrave a road map on the back of the leaflet.
In this way, even those who have no need for elixirs for the time being will still collect such leaflets.
"Caiyi, you did a great job too!"
Facing Luo Chen's admiring gaze, Gu Caiyi puffed up her towering chest.
She smiled and said, "These are just things you taught me in the early years, President. Caiyi doesn't dare to take credit."
Luo Chen shook his head, "I'm not just talking about those female cultivators."
"You are basically responsible for running this big store from scratch. I can see all the hard work involved."
Gu Caiyi opened her mouth to say something modest.
But when the words came to my mouth, I felt a little choked.
As Luo Chen said, she has worked really hard this year.
Although I had experience in running a store in Dahefang before.
But at that time, the place was small and there were few people. Most of the people who greeted her were of lower level than her.
Even if he met a high-level monk, Zeng Wen would always be there to help him.
Zeng asked now.
It was her turn to take the lead alone.
She has to face all kinds of people, and she can't afford even a slight mistake.
I really agree with Luo Chen’s words, it’s hard work and I don’t care about it for outsiders!
I don’t know how many times I’ve woken up at night, worrying about how to do my best business tomorrow.
fortunately!
It's all worth the effort.
He saw it all.
This is not a false statement, but a sincere compliment!
"Everything Caiyi did was what she should have done." She finally learned through experience and was able to control her emotions and say words that were not rude.
Luo Chen showed a warm smile.
"There is no right or wrong. If you do well, you should be rewarded."
"I recently researched something small, which is of great benefit to female nuns. You can try it after the store closes."
Gu Caiyi blinked his big eyes, looking expectant.
Being able to make Luo Chen say something like this would be of great benefit to female cultivators.
Come to think of it, it's really effective.
"I feel relieved that you are watching over here at Danxia Palace. Over at Biyou Valley, regarding the training of maids, Caiyi, you can go over and provide guidance when you are free..."
As he spoke, Luo Chen's voice gradually became weaker.
His gaze was squinting outside.
It was as if, through the doors and windows of the wooden building, I saw a figure standing outside the street for a long time.
"We have a distinguished guest coming!"
