Chapter 152 Wan Fu Garden
In the past, in attempts to draw the best talismans, there had been many failures, resulting in the damage of the talisman paper.
Now that he has succeeded, Su Qingwu is very happy.
After calming down, I continued to make talismans. Three more days passed and all the talisman paper purchased from Wangxian Tower was used up.
Eight thousand five hundred Shadow-Transforming Talismans were made.
Among them, there are ninety-nine top-quality talismans, which accounts for almost one percent of all the talismans made, which is a considerable harvest.
After drawing the talisman, Su Qingwu put it into his storage bag and left the cave temporarily.
Wangxianlou is only sold to the public, and does not purchase personal treasures, so we can only find another suitable place to sell it.
After wandering around Tianhe City for a long time and asking around for half a day, Su Qingwu finally found a talisman business with a relatively high acquisition price, Wanfu Garden.
In her previous impression, places named after gardens were all quiet and peaceful places for self-cultivation.
But this is clearly not the case in Wanfu Garden.
There are many monks coming and going here, so it is quite noisy.
The outer layer of green tiles and white walls is ten feet high and extends to both sides, with no end in sight.
Entering through the arched stone gate, there are roads paved with glauconite extending in all directions and countless attics.
At each fork in the road, there is a half-meter-high green jade stone with a line of text engraved on it, giving a brief explanation.
Su Qingwu looked through it carefully and finally found the jade stone with the six characters of his personal talisman engraved on it. He then moved forward in the direction indicated by the talisman.
After walking through several rockery pavilions and listening to the gurgling sound of flowing water, I walked for about two cups of tea and arrived in front of a seven-story attic.
There is no plaque hanging at the entrance.
This attic has no name.
Walking into the pavilion, there were only a few monks inside. The space was large and not crowded.
A waitress in white came towards her and bowed to her.
"Senior, what level of talisman do you want to sell?"
"Level 3."
"If so, you can go to the third floor of the attic."
"Thank you for letting me know."
Inside the attic, the wooden staircase leading to the upper floor is located against the right wall and is very eye-catching.
Su Qingwu walked straight over.
Climb up the wooden stairs and soon reach the third floor.
There were only a few monks here. When they saw her coming, they all looked up, then looked away and continued to work on their tasks.
Only a woman wearing a wide-sleeved fairy dress and double spiral buns walked towards her, stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation, inviting Su Qingwu to sit down in front of an exquisitely carved rosewood table.
"Which talismans do you want to sell?"
"There is only one kind, the Shadow Transformation Talisman."
"If settled with mid-grade spirit stones, the price of this talisman is generally set at 20 spirit stones for low-grade, 60 spirit stones for mid-grade, 300 spirit stones for high-grade, and 2,000 spirit stones for top-grade.
However, you should be aware that the selling price and the purchase price are different, and the latter is slightly lower than the former. This is the same in any industry.
Wan Fu Garden is buying talismans, and the price is 10% lower than the selling price. If you agree, you can take the talismans out."
Su Qingwu had anticipated this before coming here, so he was not surprised to hear this.
After all, no industry will do unprofitable business.
Only 10% below the selling price, it was better than she expected.
It's not that she hasn't thought about setting up a stall outside and selling talismans at market prices, but it's too difficult to actually put it into practice.
One is the issue of time.
It is obviously impossible to sell all the talismans at once if you set up a stall alone. Instead, you need to stay at the stall for a long time, which will undoubtedly waste a lot of time for cultivation.
The second is the issue of credibility.
The credibility of a personal stall is obviously not as high as that of a fixed industry that is open all year round. Under the premise that the prices are the same, basically no monks will buy talismans at a personal stall.
Unless the price drops.
This is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the profit is not much, so it is better to sell it directly to large industries.
Thinking of this, Su Qingwu collected his scattered thoughts, waved his right sleeve lightly, and took out all 8,500 Shadow-Transforming Talismans.
The talismans were divided into four stacks according to their grades and placed neatly.
Zhao Yue, who was originally sitting casually opposite, sat up straight subconsciously when he saw the talisman being taken out.
"Ninety-nine of the best quality, twenty-six hundred and seventy-five of the highest quality, forty-one hundred and twenty-seven of the middle quality, and one thousand five hundred and ninety-nine of the lowest quality. This... May I ask, fellow Taoist, were all these talismans drawn by you alone?"
"Exactly."
"My name is Zhao Yue. May I know what your name is?"
"Su Qingwu."
"Fellow Daoist Su, please forgive me for being so rude. How much talisman paper did you use when drawing these talismans?"
Seeing that the girl opposite him remained silent, Zhao Yue immediately added:
"I have no ill intentions. Wan Fu Garden recruits talented talisman makers all year round. If you are very good at making talismans, I can introduce you to the Ming Fu Pavilion in the garden to take the test.
After passing the test, one can become a guest elder in the garden, with generous remuneration and unlimited supply of materials for making talismans. One only needs to hand in a fixed number of talismans every year, and the rest can be kept for personal use or sold to the garden at half the market price.
In addition, you can also receive a high amount of compensation every month, starting at at least 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones, with no upper limit. If you successfully enter the academy, I, as a recommender, can also get some rewards."
In Wanfu Garden, the managers compete with each other and the pressure is not small.
If you can recommend outstanding talisman makers to join the park, you can also enhance your own competitive advantage.
When Su Qingwu heard this, she did not agree immediately.
"I will need some time to consider this matter."
Zhao Yue nodded, waved his sleeve, took out a sound transmission talisman, and handed it to the girl in black.
"If one day, you think clearly, and directly activate this talisman, contact me. If you successfully enter the Ten Thousand Talisman Garden, the reward I get can be shared equally with you."
Su Qingwu nodded and said "OK", then reached out to take the sound transmission note.
The relevant matters came to an end for the time being. Zhao Yue looked at the four stacks of talismans on the table and began to calculate the number of medium-grade spirit stones required.
"The purchase price of a low-grade Shadow Transformation Talisman is 18 Spiritual Stones per piece, totaling 28,782 Spiritual Stones; the purchase price of a medium-grade Shadow Transformation Talisman is 54 Spiritual Stones per piece, totaling 222,858 Spiritual Stones.
The purchase price of a top-grade Shadow-Transformation Talisman is 271 pieces, totaling 722,250 spirit stones; the purchase price of a top-grade Shadow-Transformation Talisman is 1,800 spirit stones per piece, totaling 178,200 spirit stones.
The total of the four types of spirit stones is 1,152,020. Daoist Su can calculate it again and confirm that there is no problem before continuing the transaction.
Su Qingwu had already calculated the corresponding number of spirit stones, and it was exactly the same as what Zhao Yue said.
The transaction went smoothly.
Not long after, she received the first batch of spirit stones she earned after her ascension.
Including the ones he already had, he now had a total of 1,260,720 middle-grade spirit stones.
After the transaction was completed, Su Qingwu did not stay long and left Wanfu Garden immediately.
She actually didn't have much desire for what Zhao Yue said.
Joining a force means having corresponding constraints.
The reason why I didn't refuse on the spot was because I didn't reject it in my heart. I kept the sound transmission note, maybe I would use it in the future...
