Chapter 2 Five dollars a month
The next day, early in the morning.
Luo Chen got up early and put the pills on the board into five jade bottles in a serving of ten.
Put on the only low-grade magic robe that can be handled, carry the low-grade flying sword, and hurriedly go out.
He had to enter the city early, or it would be dawn, and those better casual repair stalls would not be his turn.
Maybe it was a whole day of heavy rain yesterday, and the roads in the outer city looked quite muddy.
The closer you get to the center of the outer city, the smell of feces and urine, the smell of medicine, and the smell of people and monsters become stronger.
Especially under the mixture of earthy smell, that feeling is really unbearable.
But Luo Chen is used to it.
An hour later, they arrived at the gates of the city.
When entering the inner city, Luo Chen couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Sure enough, the air in the inner city is just good!
"I heard that the inner city is built on a first-order spiritual vein, which is quite beneficial for the cultivation of Qi refining stage cultivators."
"When you have money in the future, you must buy a house in the inner city!"
Secretly breathing, Luo Chen went straight to the scattered cultivation area in the southwest corner.
In front of a bluestone slab, most of them were lined with yellow rune paper and animal skins, and an old man was busy there.
He laid out the hides, stood up and stretched, just in time to see Luo Chen's arrival.
"Luo Daoyou, you came later than me this time."
The old man's name is Chen Xiuping, he is on the sixth floor of the Qi refining period, and he is an old man in Dahefang City.
He has lived here for decades, making talismans for a living, and has a good hand in talisman tanning.
With his income level, he can barely rent a house in the inner city.
However, this old man is a little picky, and he would rather live in a wooden house with a lower grade spirit stone a month in the outer city than live in a stone house in the inner city at ten times the price.
even said that even setting up a stall to sell things, he calculated clearly.
The stalls in the scattered area are rented to the managers of the Fang City.
A stall, a monthly rent of a spirit stone.
If you squeeze the stalls of the two sides, you can squeeze out a small half square after placing the talisman seal and talisman skin.
He simply gave this small half of the square to Luo Chen, and then the two of them paid half of the rent.
Luo Chen suffered?
It can't be said that if he rents another stall, he will have to spend a spirit stone a month.
Moreover, there are not many monks who like to sell things with people.
It was Luo Chen who probably didn't lose anything, but Chen Laodao definitely made a profit.
After a brief hello, Luo Chen set up his things in front of the stall.
Twenty bottles of Bigu Dan!
Chen Laodao looked at this amount and couldn't help but be surprised, "Luo Daoyou, the level of alchemy has risen again recently!" ”
No wonder he said that.
Luo Chen usually comes to set up a stall once every seven days and four or five times a month.
And each time, the number of Bigu Dan sold was about fifteen or sixteen bottles.
This time, I took out twenty bottles!
It can be seen that he must have made a lot of progress in the refining of Bigu Dan.
In fact, this is exactly what happened.
Seven days, aside from the day of setting up stalls and buying materials, there are six days left, half of which are used to process materials and half to alchemy.
In other words, there are only three days of alchemy.
In the past, Luo Chen worked hard twice a day to make pots, and he made up about five bottles of Bigu Dan, which was really a bit of a large material loss rate.
But yesterday, his Bigu Dan refining technique was promoted from perfection-level proficiency to Grandmaster level.
The last pot came out with five bottles!
In addition, with good luck before, the loss was reduced to a very low level, and this time only twenty bottles of Bigu Dan were gathered.
"Where, practice makes perfect!" Luo Chen smiled modestly, but there was still some smugness in his eyes.
The Bigu Dan refining technique that has just entered the Grandmaster-level proficiency is more or less a bit of a card.
Chen Xiuping shook his head, "There are also a few fellow sellers of Bigu Dan, but there is no one like you who can bake twenty bottles in five days." ”
With that, he reached out and touched the nearest bottle.
"You're not going to make up the numbers with flour, are you? As an old-timer, I have to check for you, don't smash the sign of our stall. ”
Luo Chen looked at him with a smile, and he had already picked up a talisman with red lines in his hand.
"I heard that last time someone bought your Qi Gathering Talisman, it didn't work, and most of the buttocks were bitten by demon beasts. The younger generation might as well take one back and study it for you, you can't smash our signboard! ”
Chen Laodao was in a hurry, and he couldn't take care of the pill in his hand, so he hurriedly snatched back the talisman seal from Luo Chen's hand.
"You only sold one spirit stone for five bottles of Bigu Dan, and you are embarrassed to exchange it for my three spirit stones and one qi amulet!"
"Give me back! Give me back! ”
Luo Chen looked at the old man with a smile and placed the charm in the most conspicuous place.
The Qi Charm is Chen Laodao's fist product!
Among his low-level talisman seals, one spirit stone per stone, the price was the most expensive, and it cost three low-grade spirit stones to start at a price.
In fact, the market for Qi Gathering Talismans is also the best, especially for those monks who go into the mountains to hunt demon beasts.
This kind of spirit rune that can cover the blood for an hour can save a life at a critical moment, and its value is not under many defensive talismans.
Sometimes, Luo Chen is actually very envious of Chen Laodao.
Selling a talisman casually is at least one spirit stone, and you can make more than a hundred net profits a month!
Not like yourself.
In the past, twelve spirit stones were recorded in the account in a month, and after deducting the cost, there were only six or seven spirit stones in hand.
If you deduct half a spirit stone from the rent, half a spirit stone from the booth fee, and one spirit stone for daily eating and drinking, you can only have four or five pieces left in the end.
It's still a year since I traveled through time, and it took a long time for me to save money.
It's hard to imagine what life the early owners lived.
But envy is only temporary.
Luo Chen knows very well that in the mainstream four arts of cultivating immortals, each has its own difficulties.
The amount of pills is bigger, and the profits are greater, but it is difficult to get started with various pills, and each pill is from the beginning to the mastery, and I don't know how many furnaces to refine.
The talisman is of good quality, and each talisman can be said to condense all the spirit of the monk when drawing, and a slight mistake means that the whole game is lost.
And talismans tend not to live very long, and I don't know why.
Just like Chen Xiuping, looking old, he is actually only in his sixties, uh, it seems that he is indeed very old.
However, a cultivator in the Qi refining period can theoretically live to be one hundred and twenty-three, and sixty is considered "young".
It's impossible to change to a talisman maker, and it's impossible to stay there every day in this life to do your homework.
It's better to make alchemy and rub the balls.
Moreover, Luo Chen's own family knows his own affairs, and the Bigu Scattering Refining Technique, which has just entered the Grandmaster-level, can already double his income in the future
Although a monthly income of ten yuan is still not enough to support the cultivation of longevity (net income), at least it is on the good side.
And, you can start a new project right away, right?
Just when Luo Chen had good hopes for the future, Chen Laodao pulled his sleeve.
"Business is coming!"
