The only way to prevent your own technological means from becoming useless is to upgrade your equipment.
Dudu has already formulated a plan for industrial upgrading, and it can be implemented as soon as the spiritual stones are in place.
But when Tian Buhui saw the price of the thing he wanted to buy, he scolded the system as coming from Africa.
A tool can easily cost tens of millions, and there are many that cost hundreds of millions.
These are all equipment for making equipment, and there are even more to actually make finished equipment. It is simply a bottomless pit.
"System, I've passed the novice stage, and you're starting to force people to make money?"
The spiritual stones needed to purchase higher-end weapons and manufacturing equipment are not enough for his current small workshop, which can only be used by saving up.
"Dudu, it's hard to make money!"
Dudu: "..."
Worrying is not the answer. Now that he has exhausted all means, he can probably compete with the early stage of Jindan.
Then set a small goal and complete all industrial upgrades before you advance to Jindan.
If you advance to Jindan, your equipment will still be able to compete with the early stage of Jindan.
Then your own scientific and technological means will be useless, which will be even more uncomfortable than "defeat!"
…
Day after day, more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
Yi Bing is still practicing in the sect, and learning the skills is not something that can be accomplished in a day.
Tian Buhui's cultivation has improved slightly, but he still hasn't thought of a way to earn spiritual stones.
"Fantasy is no solution. If you want to make money, you must understand the market!"
This is the conclusion he came to after thinking hard for the past month.
It happened that this month's elixirs and charms were also supposed to be sold, so he packed up and went out directly.
The streets of Feiyu City are still so bustling with people coming and going.
Tian Buhui's mood was different. Looking at these people, they were like beating spiritual stones, and he wanted to make money from them whenever he saw them.
"There are so many immortal cultivators in Qianyuan Continent, it would be great if each of them gave me a spiritual stone!"
Not only did he think this, he also calculated in his mind that he must have 100 million, and one billion would be about the same. If there were 10 billion, wouldn't I have 10 billion spiritual stones?
"Wow Kaka~"
As I thought about it, I couldn't help but smile on my face, as if everything was real.
As the old saying goes, dreams are full but reality is skinny.
When you daydream, there will always be a time when you wake up from the dream.
At this time, he had already reached Shopkeeper Liu's shop, shook his head and sighed, and walked in.
The waiter led him into the private room with ease, and soon shopkeeper Liu walked in with a smile on his face.
After a while of pleasantries, the deal was completed, but Tian Buhui was not in a hurry to leave.
He opened his mouth and asked: "Shopkeeper Liu, which elixir here is the most profitable?"
Shopkeeper Liu was surprised. Could it be that he was not only selling first-class elixirs?
She looked at him carefully and asked, "Fellow Daoist Tian, has he been promoted to the second level alchemist?"
"Yes." Tian Buhui said calmly.
In fact, he had already been a second-grade alchemist and had refined the first batch of second-grade elixirs.
It's just that he has been selling first-grade elixirs, and Shopkeeper Liu didn't know that he could refine second-grade elixirs.
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Tian." Shopkeeper Liu congratulated and then said, "What Fellow Daoist asked just now is not a joke on me. Naturally, the higher the grade, the greater the profit!"
Tian Buhui shook his head. If he made two furnaces at a time, the profit might be huge, but for mass production like this, he needed to consider the time cost.
He has refined almost all second-grade elixirs, and no elixir can be more profitable than the Spirit Gathering Pill when refining it in large quantities.
He said: "We are also old friends. Can you tell me the profit of the third-grade elixir?"
"Third-grade elixir?" Shopkeeper Liu was even more surprised and asked, "Can Fellow Daoist Tian still refine third-grade elixir?"
"That's not true."
Shopkeeper Liu was relieved to hear his denial.
"Fellow Daoist Tian scared me. I thought you were a third-grade alchemy master!"
Tian Buhui asked this because he had not yet refined third-grade elixirs, and he did not want to go to the trouble of buying them one by one, refining them, and selling them, so he simply asked directly so that he would have a target.
"What is the profit of the third-grade elixir?" he continued to ask.
Shopkeeper Liu saw that he insisted on asking and did not hide it, so he said: "Third-grade elixirs are naturally highly profitable, ranging from hundreds of spirit stones to tens of thousands."
When Tian Buhui heard this, he immediately became energetic and asked quickly: "There are tens of thousands more? What kind of elixir is it? Is the material difficult to find?"
Seeing how anxious he was, shopkeeper Liu smiled and said: "The third-grade elixirs are soul-strengthening elixirs that increase spiritual consciousness, and the barrier-breaking elixirs that assist in breakthroughs in cultivation are the most profitable, and the materials are not difficult to find."
"Is this so?" Tian Buhui pondered for a moment, then stood up and left immediately.
Shopkeeper Liu sent him to the door. Looking at his retreating figure, he couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "Does it look like he wants to refine a third-grade elixir?"
"The profits of third-grade elixirs are high, but it also depends on the level of the alchemist. The reason why the profits are high is because it is difficult!"
"Hey! Why are you thinking so much? If he can really sell third-grade elixirs, he can also make money."
He stopped thinking about it and turned around and walked into the shop.
Tian Buhui hurried to Wangyue Tower and rushed to the elixir area without saying a word. He wanted to buy the elixir first.
The Soul-Strengthening Pill and the Barrier-Breaking Pill both cost 100,000 spirit stones. This time, he didn't think they were expensive, but rather found them to be quite cost-effective.
After all, these two kinds of elixirs are very profitable, and you can make money back by refining them in just a few furnaces.
Another hundred thousand were spent to buy five refined elixirs each.
Sure enough, the elixir is not difficult to find and the price is not expensive.
I secretly felt that something was wrong. The elixir was not expensive and the elixir was not difficult to find. Why was there such a huge profit?
I couldn't figure out what was wrong at the moment, and I simply didn't want to talk about it until I practiced.
He rushed back to the house without stopping, adjusted his breathing for a while and started refining.
He also had a different refining method than ordinary people, experimenting with elixirs one after another.
As the elixir data was recorded.
He was very happy, "There is a way!"
Just when he was refining a main medicine, something strange happened.
The temperature of the elixir used was several times higher than that of other elixirs, but there was still no sign of melting.
Fortunately, his mana has an inflatable function, and continuous output can theoretically increase the flame intensity infinitely.
"Bang~"
Just after he strengthened the flame several times again, suddenly the alchemy furnace could not withstand the high temperature and burst.
"Nah! I bought a defective alchemy furnace!"
Run to the automatic factory and temporarily grab the alchemy furnace from a piece of equipment.
"Bang~"
Just as the output flame reached the same temperature as before, the alchemy furnace couldn't bear it and burst open.
Tian Buhui frowned and pondered, one was a defective product and the other two were also defective products?
In fact, what he didn't know was that the flames he output had already reached the intensity of the golden elixir stage elixir fire, which was not something that his magic weapon elixir furnace could withstand.
Unable to figure it out, he went to Shopkeeper Liu's shop again.
I want to ask him about the precautions for refining third-grade elixirs.
Last time I was carried away when I heard about the high profits. This time I have to inquire carefully.
When shopkeeper Liu heard that he was here for this matter, he directly found a booklet and gave it to him.
It not only contains precautions for refining elixirs, but also introduces flame intensity, classification of alchemy furnaces, time for refining elixirs, etc.
None of this knowledge is a secret, it is common sense to a third-grade alchemist. After all, no matter how clearly you understand it, you must have the ability to make alchemy.
Tian Buhui returned to the house with the booklet, and within a short while, he could be heard cursing loudly.
"What a rip-off!"
