Chapter 22: Secret Discussion
To be honest, Wang Changsheng didn't expect it to go so smoothly, before that, he had only used a black rune pen to draw in a dream, and the number of successes was pitiful.
It is also strange to say that in the dream realm, the attributes of the rune seal are not limited, and the runes of any attribute can be drawn through the black rune pen, but in reality, Wang Changsheng can draw the runes of the three attributes of gold, fire and water at will, and the runes of other attributes must be drawn with the help of attribute spirit stones.
Most of the spirit stones circulating on the market are the five element attributes, as for the spirit stones with rare attributes such as wind, thunder, and ice, they are rare, and in addition to the talismans, there are many places where rare attribute spirit stones are used in the immortal cultivation world, and few people will spend the spirit stones with rare attributes as ordinary currency, under normal circumstances, more than one hundred and twenty low-level spirit stones can be exchanged for a medium-level spirit stone, and ten low-level rare spirit stones can be exchanged for a medium-level spirit stone, and it is also priceless, which shows that the preciousness of rare attribute spirit stones.
Wang Mingyuan used the power of the whole clan, but he only got five low-level wind spirit stones and two low-level ice spirit stones for Wang Changsheng, of course, this was related to the relatively barren Yueyang County.
Wang Changsheng put aside the made earth cone talisman and glanced at the earth spirit stone in his left hand, some parts of the surface of the spirit stone turned gray-white, and the area accounted for about a quarter of the entire spirit stone, that is to say, without making a mistake, a earth spirit stone could allow Wang Changsheng to draw three earth cone talismans, and one earth cone talisman was worth three low-level spirit stones on the market, no wonder the talisman maker could become one of the four popular professions in the immortal cultivation world.
The talisman maker with the lowest threshold is still like this, and the other three professions are not making a lot of money, and if he chose to learn other professions in the first place, wouldn't he have to make a lot of money.
Thinking of this, Wang Changsheng's heart was a little hot, but soon, he dispelled this thought, he can have today, in addition to diligence, the black rune pen has a lot of credit, and learning other professions may not be successful.
Dispelling the distracting thoughts in his heart, Wang Changsheng took a deep breath, calmed down, dipped the dansha with a black talisman pen, took a piece of talisman paper and put it in front of him······
On a towering mountain a few miles away from Fangshi, unlike the other desolate peaks in the mountain range, this mountain is full of trees, birds and flowers, and it is full of life.
At the highest point of the mountain, there are a large number of pavilions and houses, from time to time there are immortal cultivators in and out, these immortal cultivators have men, women and children, most of them are in the Qi refining period, what is more special is that the left chest of the clothes they wear is embroidered with a flower and grass pattern, the monks of Yueyang County must be no stranger to this pattern, this is the family emblem of the Li family, the first immortal family in the Yueyang Mountains, and this is the family residence of the Li family.
It is said that the ancestors of the Li family were born in a certain sect of cultivating immortals, and the children of the Li family neither denied nor admitted, but also put on a veil of mystery, the Li family has been in the family for nearly a thousand years, has made a wide range of friends, and has countless in-laws, and is also famous in the entire Yueyang County.
In a heavily guarded room in the tallest building of the Li family's station, "Yingxian Pavilion", a majestic-looking red-robed old man sat in the first place, and on both sides of it, there were more than a dozen white-haired old men, each with a book in front of them, and a middle-aged Confucian standing behind the red-robed old man, holding a book in his hand.
"Qingshu, everyone is here, let's start!" the majestic gaze of the red-robed old man glanced to the sides and said lightly.
"Yes, Third Uncle," the middle-aged Confucian nodded, opened the book, and read aloud:
"This month, two hundred and fifteen elixirs were sold, sixty-five strains were purchased, two thousand three hundred and forty-five spirit stones were made, sixty-five magic weapons were sold, seventeen were purchased, and seven hundred and twenty-three spirit stones were made, two hundred and twenty-one elixirs were sold, one thousand and seventy-one spirit stones were made, twenty-one Fu seals were sold, one hundred and three spirit stones were profitable, one hundred and thirty-five copies of the practice cheats were sold, five hundred and sixty spirit stones were made, and a total profit of four thousand eight hundred and two spirit stones this month, and the specific list was recorded in the account book in front of your uncles, so you uncles can take a look。 ”
Hearing this, the old men sitting on both sides picked up the books in front of them and looked at them, and the old man in the red robe sitting in the first place was no exception, and opened the books and read them.
After a while, the red-robed old man withdrew his gaze from the book and asked in a deep voice: "Qingshu, if I'm not mistaken, Ziling is responsible for taking care of the Baicao Hall in Changpingfang City, right!
"Yes, third uncle, Baicaotang is managed by Ziling, Baicaotang has been open for less than a year, and it is normal to have to compete with other stores, and it is normal to lose a little, but considering the situation in Changping County, my nephew suggested that a few people be transferred from the Treasure Pavilion," the young Confucian nodded and proposed.
"Well, I agree with Qingshu," a white-haired old man on the left echoed.
"I also agree, but I have to add one condition, if it is still a loss after two months, the steward of Baicaotang will be replaced!" said an old man on the right, stroking his beard.
"I can understand that Baicaotang has some losses, but what's going on with the talisman seals of the Treasure Pavilion, only twenty-one pieces were sold in a month, I remember that there were more than a hundred pieces last month!
"Yes, Qingshu, how can the number be reduced so much, I remember that our Li family has two talisman makers and several apprentices, so it is impossible to only make twenty-one talisman seals in a month!"
"Sixth aunt, eleventh uncle, Rong nephew returns, this is not the family's talisman maker's problem, the phenomenon of declining sales of talismans, not only our Li family, other stores also have, more than a month ago, a small shop called Juxianju, suddenly there are a large number of talismans for sale, and the power of the same kind of talisman is much greater than that of other stores, which has led to a significant decrease in the sales of our Jubao Pavilion talismans," the middle-aged Confucian explained unhurriedly.
"What is the origin of this Juxian Residence, and where did their talisman come from, find out if it is. ”
"Well, this Juxian Residence was opened by a local immortal cultivation family, there is only one foundation building monk in the clan, it is said that they invited a talisman maker to make talismans for them, the thirteenth uncle once suggested to come to the door to ask for this talisman maker, but later was rejected by the third uncle's mother. ”
Hearing this, the old man in the red robe raised his eyebrows, groaned slightly, and asked, "Qingshu, how much do you mean by the large amount, and is there a specific number?" ”
"My nephew sent someone to check, and a maximum of seventy or eighty copies are sold a day, but recently the sales have declined, and about thirty or forty copies are sold, most of them are primary attack talismans," the middle-aged Confucian said without thinking, obviously prepared for this problem.
"What do you think about this," the red-robed old man asked, looking at the old men on either side.
"Thirty or forty pieces a day, more than a thousand pieces a month, we can come to the door to ask for this talisman master, of course, we have to make some compensation to this Wang family, and others in the province will make irresponsible remarks about our Li family," an old man was overjoyed when he heard this, and said.
"The talisman maker who can make nearly 1,000 pieces a month is worth asking for. ”
"I agree with the tenth brother. ”
"I agree. ”
When the red-robed old man heard this, his face did not change, and he turned his gaze to a blue-robed Taoist priest who was sitting on the second of his lower left, and said, "Eighth brother, you can also talk about it." ”
Suddenly, most of the old men focused their eyes on the blue-robed old man.
"There's nothing to say, I just want to ask a few questions, how did the Liu family perish a thousand years ago? How did our Li family get started? Is there only one foundation building monk in this Wang family? Is this talisman maker a member of the Wang family?"
