Chapter 62: Effort
Holding a silver ticket of 700,000 taels, Shen Lingxi felt a little fluttering. The main reason is that it is the first time that I have so much money, and I can use this money to do the things I wanted to buy and do before.
Shen Lingxi first came to the luxury pill and alchemy furnace specialty store called Miao Dan Pavilion, she didn't know much about the alchemy furnace, and she knew that the sixth-grade blue water Venus alchemy furnace that Shen Yunxi had taken a fancy to last time was what she needed now.
Because it was bought with enough silver sincerely, last time the bewitching female shopkeeper in gorgeous clothes gave Shen Lingxi a discounted price, and Shen Lingxi sold the deal at the final price of 108,000 taels.
After paying the money, Shen Lingxi went to a shop that sold talisman formations, and bought several spirit gathering arrays that gathered spiritual energy during alchemy in one go, and spent more than 50,000 taels at once.
Then Shen Lingxi went all over the East Market again, and bought all the auxiliary materials that needed to refine Gu Yuan Dan, and if it was really difficult to buy, he asked the shopkeeper Qin to go to other counties to purchase.
In order to refine the Guyuan Dan, Shen Lingxi spent a total of more than 200,000 taels.
However, even if he spent 200,000 taels, Shen Lingxi still has more funds in his hands now.
When Shen Lingxi was buying alchemy furnaces and medicinal materials, he probably learned that some wealthy merchants were smashing money to refine a large number of pills and the like to help the children with average talent in their families to practice.
These children with sufficient pills, although their talents are very ordinary, they will generally make greater progress in cultivation than children without pills, and in addition, wealthy families can send their children to study in institutions of higher learning like the Shen Family Academy, and their cultivation and future prospects are much higher than those of ordinary children.
Therefore, in Runan City, Shen Lingxi saw some poor ordinary people, some of whom were a handful of years old, but they were only in the congenital stage of cultivation or just in the early stage of Qi cultivation, and most of these families, including their children, had only been running around for a living at the lowest level of society all their lives.
Shen Lingxi didn't expect that the people in this world also have a basically fixed social status, and it is almost impossible for a poor family to have a noble son.
Even if there is a child with good talent from a poor family, in the process of cultivation resources and future learning and cultivation, he will be compared to the children of rich families and wealthy families.
Shen Lingxi is very glad that she now has a cheap girl from a wealthy family like Shen Ziyan, and some people give a lot of money to enter the Shen family school, but she doesn't know how to cherish it at all.
The current situation is that there will be no help from Shen Yunxi for five years, so Shen Lingxi is now starting to reassess what he has to do in the past five years.
Shen Lingxi felt that he still had to work harder, he was still more serious when he was studying in the academy, and with some money earned in business, Shen Lingxi felt that he could at least follow the path of those rich businessmen's children.
Shen Lingxi decided to try his best to make the high-grade liquor business prosperous, and the money he earned every year could be used to refine pills for himself to help with his cultivation.
After planning this, Shen Lingxi became methodical in his work, and first put the remaining hundreds of thousands of taels in his hand into the construction of expanding the production of high liquor, and the spirit liquor workshop near Lingquan was also built smoothly.
Uncle Shen Aotian knew that Shen Lingxi had sold the ice dagger, and he came to inquire once with some reproach, but was scolded back by the cheap lady on the grounds that the big house had poured out some of the original properties in the second room.
In the end, he also asked for the ownership of the spiritual spring of the drinking spring mountain from the big house.
Uncle Shen Aotian also felt that it was better to give Shen Ziyan some industry, lest there be such a thing as selling magic weapons in the future.
Shen Lingxi was also very happy to hear that Lingquan was now completely owned by the second room, the big house did not see the commercial value of Lingquan, but Shen Lingxi keenly felt that Lingquan still had a high commercial development value.
Lingquan wine is just the beginning, after Shen Lingxi inspected the spiritual spring, he felt that the spiritual spring water was abundant, maybe it was used for alchemy, or it was used to grow spiritual grass or something, maybe the effect would have unexpected effects.
As Shen Lingxi was busy in the business enemy country she operated day by day, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month was soon coming, and the day of the opening of the Shen Family Academy followed.
Now the economy of the second room has improved a lot after selling the Ice Dagger, so Shen Ziyan is willing to spend 50,000 taels to buy a new carriage for Shen Lingxi to go to school.
Now Shen Lingxi doesn't have to sit in the same carriage with Shen Yun'er when she goes to school in the Shen Family School, but Shen Yun'er is used to squeezing in a carriage with her Lingxi brother, so often on the way to and from school, Shen Yun'er's own carriage is empty, and Shen Lingxi's new carriage is still crowded with the two brothers and sisters.
In the new semester, Shen Lingxi and Shen Yun'er were both promoted to the Shen family's first-class school.
The Shen family's secondary school is very different from the primary school, the primary school is mainly in the cultivation of the children who have just entered the school to lay a good foundation, and when they master the skills of cultivation, they will let the children who are higher in cultivation and win the battle to go to school.
After entering the middle school, the middle school will not focus on improving the cultivation of these children, but will begin to teach alchemy, as well as talisman making, as well as some basic knowledge of refining magic weapons.
The middle school does not expect that pure teaching can teach a few alchemy or talisman masters, but it is the same as the concept of the primary school, bringing these children to the beginning first, and as for the future development, it depends on the talent and efforts of these children in alchemy and talisman refining tools.
In theory, some alchemists or talisman makers will carefully explain to the students, and sometimes there will be practical classes such as laboratory classes.
Of course, the academy will also invite a master who is quite powerful in the aspect of alchemy and talisman making to teach by word and deed, but after all, it is impossible to let a master-level person practice every time, so the practice experience of one or two practices is extremely valuable.
After Shen Lingxi left Shen Yunxi, he changed his lazy personality for all things in study.
Sometimes people are like this, when they know that they have someone to rely on, they will subconsciously want to rely on others, and once there is nothing to rely on, sometimes people will work hard and think that they can only rely on themselves.
Shen Lingxi is in this situation, so when he was in the alchemy and talisman making courses, Shen Lingxi always listened to it with relish, especially the practical classes that those masters came to the school to personally guide, and Shen Lingxi took out twelve points of spirit to study the experience of others.
After returning to the Shen Mansion, Shen Lingxi would also take out the experience tips of alchemy talisman making left by Shen Yunxi when he was alone at night and study them carefully.
Half a year later, Shen Lingxi felt that she had learned the theoretical knowledge very thoroughly in alchemy, so she began to use the sixth-grade alchemy furnace to open the alchemy furnace herself.
