The envoys of Zhongxing Sect and Yunjian Sect in Yaocheng stood at the gate, looking at the scattered cultivators queuing up in an orderly manner to board the flying boats, and their faces were very ugly.
Every time Yunzhong City celebrated its centennial, there was constant killing. Wouldn't they know about it? Of course they knew. Wouldn't they know that flying boats could be used for transportation? They knew that too.
Then why not do it? It's profitable.
Twelve flying boats, twelve golden elixirs, and dozens of foundation building. How much money would it cost? Do you really think that Zhongxing Sect and Yunjian Sect are running a charity?
They also thought about collecting money, but it was very troublesome to collect money. The cultivators from all over the country came from different places and had different journeys. How much should they collect? How much trouble would it be? Since it was a troublesome matter, they would not do it. Anyway, the people who died were not their people, but some scattered cultivators and disciples of small forces. As for leeks, there will be a large number of them growing after a hundred years.
"The pressure is now on us. If we don't follow suit, the two sects will certainly be criticized."
"Yes, hundreds of thousands of spirit stones are just thrown away. The Five Elements Sect is really generous."
"I heard that the Five Elements Sect was unwilling to do so, but Zhang Wanjing insisted on it, and even alarmed the big figures of the Five Elements Sect."
"Zhang Wanjing, the Five Elements Sect has such a person, and I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."
"A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. If the wind does not destroy it, it is a towering tree."
The envoys of the two sects were talking. No matter how shady the big sects are, they have to do it in private. On the surface, they must be great and glorious. They are too familiar with human nature. Human nature is good, at least they need others to be kind.
Now that the Five Elements Sect has set this precedent, they have no choice but to follow suit. When they think about throwing away hundreds of thousands of spirit stones in vain, they feel very distressed.
"Let's go back and study. It's time to come up with something new for the centennial celebration of Yunzhong City."
"Okay, we'll communicate with each other when the time comes. We can't be outdone by the Five Elements Sect."
The envoys of the two sects have a tacit understanding. In their view, the wealth of the independent cultivators and small-power cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation is constant. If the Five Elements Sect eats more, they will eat less. Now that the Five Elements Sect has begun to compete with them, they have to work harder to grab their share back.
········ On the afternoon of
the tenth day of the Ten Thousand Medicine Conference , in Jiangshan Town, Lin Jiang and Yue Qing came to the warehouse to divide the spirit stones. The piles of spirit stones were almost filling the warehouse, and everyone was about to be blinded by the spirit stones. At this time, Yue Qing had to admire Lin Jiang for asking everyone to take the Dao Heart Oath in advance, otherwise they would definitely kill each other at this time. Money can only move people's hearts. "Jiang Shu, have you settled the accounts?" Yue Qing asked. Jiang Shu is a local in Jiangshan Town and one of Yue Qing's sworn brothers. "Brother Yue, I've figured it out." "Give me a rough estimate." "Okay, including today, we have sold a total of 1,325,600 small lunch boxes, 978,000 medium lunch boxes, and 853,000 large lunch boxes. The price of a small lunch box is 20 spirit beads, a medium lunch box is 35 spirit beads, and a large lunch box is 60 spirit beads. The prices have fluctuated slightly, and there are discounts for buying more. The total income is..." Jiang Shu listed the account books one by one. These millions of meals were not sold in the past ten days, but also included the number sold in the previous four months. Before that, the daily sales volume ranged from hundreds to thousands. "After deducting the warehouse rent, the operation of the formation, the salaries of the staff, and the material cost of the lunch boxes themselves, our net profit is 153,800 spirit stones, plus several thousand spirit beads, which have not yet been exchanged for spirit stones. " "Even if it is 150,000 spirit stones, the remaining several thousand spirit stones will be distributed to others as bonuses for them." "Senior Brother Yue, look..." "Listen to Xiao Yi, we have earned hundreds of thousands of spirit stones, don't eat alone." Yue Qing was very generous and immediately agreed with Lin Jiang's statement. Although Jiang Shu and others felt distressed, they all agreed. There were sixty people helping them (not counting mortals), the number of people selling lunch boxes increased to thirty, and there were also thirty people helping to cook in the warehouse. They slept only one hour a day for the past ten days, almost working around the clock, and it was very hard, so it was normal to give them more money. "We have a capital of 50,000 spirit stones. All subsequent investments are paid out from the money earned. Now we are calculating the net profit. I invested 10,000 spirit stones and got 20% of the shares. Please calculate it for me first." "Yes, Senior Brother Yue." "In less than half a year, 10,000 has been exchanged for 30,000. Junior Brother Xiao, I, Yue Qing, admire you." Yue Qing got the spirit stones and sighed. It only took about half a year in total, and he didn't do much. He just helped to contact people. This money was too easy. "I invested 20,000 spirit stones and got 60,000, which is not bad." Lin Jiang also got his share of the money and earned 40,000 spirit stones, which is almost the money for a foundation-building pill. It is enough. The remaining 60,000 was divided by Jiang Shu and other four people. At least 10,000 could be obtained. They were also very happy because they only had an annual income of about 2,000 before. This was the result of Yue Qing's support. If no one helped, it would be even worse. In half a year, they won at least five years of income. This is definitely a huge profit for them.
"Junior Brother Xiao, let's find a place to celebrate?"
"Not today. The work is not finished yet."
"Well, it seems you are very busy now."
"Uncle-master Zhang has something to do."
"Then I have to congratulate you even more."
Yue Qing raised his eyebrows. He found that Lin Jiang was the big winner. Not only did he make money, but he also caught the eye of Zhang Wanjing. He has a bright future ahead of him.
"Two brothers, there are still some remaining materials, what should we do?"
"Keep selling. People in Medicine City won't leave all at once, and Medicine City originally had a permanent population of hundreds of thousands. You can arrange people to continue selling the remaining materials, and use the spiritual stones you earn to continue purchasing raw materials, but pay attention to the output, don't buy too much at once. In short, we won't invest any more money in it, but we will continue to do the work and make as much money as we can. This is a long-term source of income."
"Junior Brother Xiao is right, Jiang Shu, you decide whether you should keep an eye on it yourself or ask a brother to keep an eye on it. No matter how much you make in the future, it will be in vain. Don't waste it."
"Senior Brother, I'm going to try to break through the foundation building stage. Let other brothers do this."
"Okay, I trust you, you make the arrangements, and we'll meet in Medicine City in a few days to celebrate."
Yue Qing nodded. There will definitely be no such huge profits in the future, but the advantage is the long-term. As long as there are immortal cultivators in Medicine City, they will definitely have a market.
Lin Jiang and Yue Qing left together. Jiangshan Town is only thirty miles away from Medicine City. It is now within the patrol range of the Five Elements Sect disciples, so it is still very safe.
After returning to Medicine City, Lin Jiang immediately went to find Zheng Yi and the others. Zheng Yi distributed spirit stones every day, so he didn't get a lot at once today, but cumulatively, Lin Jiang also got nearly 20,000 spirit stones from Zheng Yi. He invested 5,000 spirit stones.
"Brother Xiao, let's find a place to get together. The brothers are exhausted these days. This is much more tiring than farming."
"Brother Zheng, take a rest when you are tired. You can celebrate at any time. I have something else to do. Uncle Zhang Wanjing wants to talk to me about something."
Lin Jiang mentioned Zhang Wanjing again. Now he is going to use Zhang Wanjing's tiger skin. He can't keep his multiple speculative projects secret for long. In a Qi training period, he made at least 70,000 to 80,000 spirit stones in just half a year. This is a life-threatening thing. Without a backer, someone will definitely come up to make money and kill people. Although Lin Jiang is not afraid, he doesn't want to expose his strength.
"Okay, let's meet again later."
Zheng Yi didn't dare to say anything more when he heard that Zhang Wanjing wanted to see Lin Jiang for something. He just felt a little disappointed. They were born in poverty and were honest all their lives. Although they worked hard, they didn't make much money. This time they saw Lin Jiang's ability and wanted to win him over. They hoped that Lin Jiang would continue to help them make money in the future.
According to the contract, they still had about half a month to rent out the house and inn. Lin Jiang asked them to continue renting them out and they could divide the money they earned among themselves.
After instructing them on some finishing matters, Lin Jiang went to find Zhao Jiang again. Zhao Jiang's income was even more terrible. The profit of the talisman could not be fixed. It depended on the level of the talisman painter. However, the talisman was a rigid demand for cultivators, just like weapons and elixirs. They were rigid demands. I have never seen any cultivator who didn't carry a few talismans, unless they were really poor.
Zhao Jiang and his group had a larger number of people and prepared more talismans. After ten days of sharing, Lin Jiang took more than 70,000 spiritual stones. Lin Jiang's income from the entire Wanyao Conference exceeded 100,000 spiritual stones.
"Junior Brother Xiao, let's go somewhere to drink. How about Hongxianglou? I heard that many fairies came to Hongxianglou this time."
Zhao Jiang and his group winked at Lin Jiang, with a look that said, "Brother, you know what I mean. "
Lin Jiang had been keeping a chaste body for the past 20 to 30 years, and his evil fire suddenly rose, but he still shook his head and said, "Forget it, Senior Brother Zhao, we have been very high-profile these days, so we have to keep a low profile and make a fortune in silence. The same goes for the other senior brothers. We can go to Hongxianglou anytime, there is no need to join in the fun at this time."
"Senior Brother Zhao, Senior Brother Xiao is right, why don't we go back to the mountain gate? I always feel it's dangerous here."
Lin Jiang's words were echoed by others. What they did in the Futang was very high-profile. After all, it involved hundreds of talisman painters, and it was impossible to hide it.
"Go away, you kid have a Taoist partner, but I don't have one yet. Now that I'm rich, why don't I live it up? What's the point of making money?"
"Haha, Senior Brother Zhao is right. Anyway, I'm going to Hongxiang Tower tonight, and I have to find at least two fairies to talk to."
"With your little toothpick, you still need two more. Don't die in Hongxiang Tower." "
Bah, I have a strong kidney, I'm not afraid of ten."
"Fuck, I don't believe it, dig it out and let's see."
"Stop making trouble, stop making trouble, everyone disperse first. Those who want to go, go, and those who want to go back to the mountain gate, go back. Disperse."
Lin Jiang couldn't stand it anymore when he saw a group of veteran drivers were about to race. If he drove any further, he would have to go to Hongxiang Tower in the evening, as he had important things to do at night.
