The next morning, the three of them gathered in front of the stone tablet.
Xu Ni bumped Shen Xian'er with her shoulder, and Shen Xian'er's face turned red instantly, as if a switch had been flipped.
"Hehe~" Xu Ni let out a lewd laugh.
Jiang Xiaoyue knew there was some trouble brewing between the two, but she ignored it and said:
“We are three sisters, but we are staying at Nizi’s house. We have to decide who will fetch water and who will cook. Now that the market is newly established, we also need to divide the work to avoid conflicts or even parting ways in the future.”
Xu Ni nodded seriously and said, "I agree."
"Xian'er?" Jiang Xiaoyue asked Shen Xian'er.
“I have no objection,” Shenxian’er quickly replied.
“Okay.” Jiang Xiaoyue nodded. “In that case, everyone should speak freely and express their thoughts. The three of us can work together to solve the problem and set the rules.”
Xu Ni was the first to speak: "How many talismans does Xian'er draw each month, how many pills do you refine, how many times do I go on trade, how many people go on trade, how is the harvest distributed, and how many times a month do we go fishing, and how many people participate?"
Jiang Xiaoyue asked Xian'er, "Xian'er, how many talismans do you plan to draw each month?"
Shenxian thought for a moment and realized that the storybook she read last night was actually quite good. The blush-inducing content was based on a solid plot, and there was business in those plots.
Under Li Changzhou's tutelage, she had become accustomed to drawing experience and knowledge from books.
Then, as I thought about it, some logic came to me.
She lifted her face and said softly:
"It's hard to say exactly how many talismans to use or what kind of talismans to draw right now. It depends on what kind of talismans Lake Mingfang needs most, and then we'll calculate based on how many spirit stones I have to earn for the 'Three Sisters Market' each month by selling talismans."
"For example, one hundred spirit stones. No matter what I draw, as long as I pay one hundred spirit stones, that's enough."
"In addition, I draw talismans and sell them for money. A portion of the money goes to me, or I can exchange it for an equivalent amount of cultivation materials."
She blushed as she spoke and quickly said, "I don't want to separate the family, it's just—"
"That's great!" Jiang Xiaoyue smiled.
Xu Ni patted Shen Xian'er's slender shoulder and said, "After providing enough for the market, of course we can keep the rest for ourselves. I think that's a good idea too!"
She then looked at Jiang Xiaoyue and said, "Then I won't limit myself to how many times I run trade routes each month. Just give me 10 spirit stones each time. The more I work, the more I earn, how about that?"
“Okay.” Jiang Xiaoyue nodded.
Ten spirit stones used to be a lot, but now a single trade run can earn at least 400 spirit stones.
"How much of my share will I get?" Shenxian'er couldn't help but ask.
Who doesn't want to be rich?
"Fifty percent?" Jiang Xiaoyue said.
"Too many!" Shenxian'er exclaimed.
“Xian’er, if you don’t take more, you’ll be dissatisfied in the future,” Xu Ni couldn’t help but say. “Even if you don’t know how, other talisman masters do—cultivation arts are the most profitable. Think about it, you earn 1,000 spirit stones a month, and you’re only allowed to take 100. Would you be happy? Taking 500 is already considered low.”
Shenxian'er nodded slowly: "Alright, but in addition to the talismans for merchants, I also need to draw talismans for you to ensure your safety."
“You still don’t understand anything.” Jiang Xiaoyue and Xu Ni both laughed.
"Hmm?" the fairy asked, puzzled.
Jiang Xiaoyue didn't explain the reason, but said directly: "Xian'er, from now on, no matter who in the Three Sisters Market wants to get talismans from you, they must at least buy them at cost price."
"This is also for the future; without rules, nothing can be accomplished," Xu Ni said.
The fairy thought about it and understood.
For example, now that Jiang Xiaoyue has learned alchemy, I can't keep taking Qi-Nourishing Pills from her for free or even asking for them, can I?
Jiang Xiaoyue herself also needed to cultivate, and time was precious. Besides, alchemy also required materials.
She nodded: "But I can give my talismans to whoever I want for free."
The two of them laughed again.
Xu Ni rubbed her fingers together mercenarily: "Fairy, Fairy Sister, please give me a few hundred Golden Light Talismans, please~"
The fairy felt a wave of nausea and quickly pushed her away.
Jiang Xiaoyue pondered and said, "There is also the cultivation of various arts and skills. Take me as an example. If I use the money from the market to learn alchemy, then after I learn alchemy, I can only get one or two layers of profit within fifty years."
"We also need to increase the amount of spirit stones that must be earned for the market each year, depending on the skill level. Alternatively, we can apply for continued investment from the market to cultivate skills."
"Yes." The two nodded.
After discussing it, the three of them finally determined their general plan for making money.
Jiang Xiaoyue —
The initial alchemy materials will be provided by the market. The Qi Gathering Pill must be refined within six months. If not, half of the training investment will be made up. The training quota must be determined by three people.
Once the alchemy is successful, one can refine first-grade, first-level pills. One must earn 100 spirit stones for the market each month, with the materials provided by the market. This process continues indefinitely.
Each time a new pill is refined, one can apply for a training quota in the market. The conditions are the same: if the refinement is unsuccessful within six months, half of the investment will be refunded.
Xu Ni —
A single trade trip earns 10 spirit stones.
Before each trade trip, a specific group of people—currently only three—determine the approximate value of the goods in spirit stones.
If the spirit stones obtained through trading are lower than the estimated price, the trader (currently Xu Ni) must cover the loss unless the market price fluctuates.
As for merchants who sell goods worth 10 spirit stones for 100 spirit stones, the market will not take or touch the extra 90 spirit stones; the merchants will keep them themselves.
Merchants also have a special right: each month they can purchase one Golden Light Talisman, one Fire Spirit Talisman, one bottle of Spirit Recovery Pill (to restore spiritual power), and one bottle of Vitality Pill (to heal injuries) from within the Three Sisters Market at cost price.
"I'm making a lot of extra money." Xu Ni smiled so much her eyes narrowed.
