Cultivating Immortality: Starting from Ferrying Passengers

Chapter 64 Make a fortune

"One hundred light body talismans, one hundred tranquility talismans, one hundred protective talismans, one hundred blazing flame talismans"

Ding San was reading loudly, and the shopkeeper instructed the clerk to get it.

The shopkeeper sighed, but Ding Sanxi smiled happily, comparing the purchase list and reading it over and over again.

But with the appearance of high-level talismans on the list, the shopkeeper hesitated.

"I said, that's enough, you can't just focus on my store and buy from it."

Ding San stopped, his expression gradually becoming serious. He stared at the shopkeeper and asked:

"Don't you want to help the warehouse? Don't you want to contribute your own strength to the market? You should know that the stable operation of your store is all thanks to the market. It's good for the market, and it's also good for you."

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper waved his hands quickly, as he couldn't handle the heavy hat that Ding San was putting on him.

Fang Jingxuan on the side was almost impressed by Ding San. It was obvious that Ding San was an old hand in the government when he spoke these clichés. He felt embarrassed to speak himself.

Sure enough, it was a good decision to bring Ding San along. If I had been asked to buy it myself, how could he have cheated me in such a high-sounding way?

"That's not what I meant. It's just that there are quite a few high-level talismans on your list, and you can't buy them all from me. Come on, let's have a cup of tea and then talk."

Since the shopkeeper had given in, Ding San decided to stop while he was ahead. After all, anyone who could open a shop here basically had some connections.

It's just that this store doesn't have strong enough connections, so Ding San dares to come and force a purchase. If it were a store with a strong background, do you think Ding San would dare to go and disturb it?

Ding San was pulled aside by the shopkeeper to drink tea. Fang Jingxuan saw that the shopkeeper secretly stuffed a lot of low-grade spirit stones into Ding San.

Fang Jingxuan just pretended not to see this. This was what Ding San deserved based on his ability. Taking bribes is also a kind of ability.

A moment later, Fang Jingxuan and Ding San walked out of the talisman shop leisurely. They came to a corner and began to reconcile the accounts.

"A total of one thousand low-grade spirit stones worth of talismans, basically all of which were bought at 70% to 80% off. Except for the silent note, I have almost all the low-grade talismans."

Fang Jingxuan calculated that based on this price, the shopkeeper actually didn't lose much, he was just selling it to break even.

Of course, the storage, operation and inventory costs of these talismans will be wasted.

Fang Jingxuan ordered the talismans and confirmed that the quantity matched. Moreover, when buying the talismans, he also checked to prevent this store from selling inferior products as good ones and using talismans that had been stored for a long time as new products.

Talismans will also expire. If they are not stored properly or are kept for too long, the spiritual energy on the talisman paper will dissipate.

If the talismans are not seriously dispersed, their effectiveness will be greatly reduced when used.

If the leakage is serious, it cannot even be activated and is considered a useless talisman.

Fang Jingxuan was knowledgeable about the business, so he just casually said a few words of jargon and commented on some details of the description of the talisman's configuration, and the store did not dare to do anything wrong.

"Thank you, Brother Ding. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't be able to buy so many talismans at such a cheap price."

Fang Jingxuan thanked Ding San, and Ding San smiled innocently, without any trace of his previous domineering attitude.

Our own people are all very simple and honest. Even if they behaved very badly just now, it was because of their work and they had to do so.

Of course, you must first be one of our own to be honest, otherwise you will become the object of last resort.

In this regard, Fang Jingxuan could only say that the butt determines the head.

"The remaining talismans are not easy to use or buy. They are basically sold in large stores with powerful people as shareholders. At our level, we will suffer if we encounter them."

Ding San explained to Fang Jingxuan, and Fang Jingxuan understood that they could only control the small Fu store now, and they would never dare to touch the big store.

"Don't worry about it. I have my own way. I know a talisman master. See if he has any. He can give me some discount."

The person Fang Jingxuan was referring to was Wu Yong. Buying directly from a talisman maker, bypassing the hassle of going through a talisman shop, naturally results in a lower price. "That's great! Getting to know a talisman maker would be beneficial. It wouldn't hurt to get to know more talisman makers, not just talisman makers, but cultivators of other professions as well. It never hurts to get to know them. Who knows, they might come in handy someday."

After Fang Jingxuan and Ding San completed the transaction, they took Tuyuan back home.

This time, Ding San was able to get nearly twenty low-grade spirit stones by following him, and Fang Jingxuan had to be grateful.

In contrast, Fang Jingxuan thought of his previous days as a ferryman and sighed inwardly.

Even if you go through wind and rain for ten days, it is still not as good as the official's lip service.

Returning to his own courtyard, Fang Jingxuan began to calculate his profits.

There is also a share of silent notes in this list, and Fang Jingxuan plans to fill it with his own.

Taking out one hundred silent notes from the storage bag, Fang Jingxuan pulled out one hundred corresponding low-grade spirit stones.

Finally, there were two things on the table, one was a spirit stone, and the other was still a spirit stone.

The smaller pile among them is the profit that Fang Jingxuan calculated for himself.

A total of more than 240 low-grade spirit stones.

Looking at the spirit stone on the table, Fang Jingxuan fell silent.

This is just the profit from one mission, and it is just the mission that Ku Ding can access. From this, we can infer how much those who participate in the mission and manage the mission can make at one time?
Compared to this, all my previous experiences of working hard to make money seem a little ridiculous.

After a long time, Fang Jingxuan calmed down and decided to divide the spirit stones into 70% and not all of them would be his.

But even so, he could still get seventy or eighty low-grade spirit stones, and he hadn't bought any high-level talismans yet, so this was another profit.

If we add in the profit from selling the silent notes, the total revenue this time will be more than one hundred and fifty or sixty.

It is true that one cannot get rich without unexpected fortune. If you want to make a lot of money, you still need connections. Without Wei Tong, how could such a thing happen to me?

Thinking of this, Fang Jingxuan's mood improved. If he worked hard, his life would become sweeter and sweeter.

After carefully putting away the spirit stone, Fang Jingxuan began to draw the talisman. There were still three days before the deadline, so there was no need to finish it so early.

When doing things, you must not be too active, otherwise you will end up like a useless ox or horse.

This time it’s a good thing, but what about next time?

It would be safer to wait until the last day to hand in the task. I can just hang around for two days and then go find Wu Yong to buy the talisman tomorrow. It will still be in time.

With this idea in mind, Fang Jingxuan openly slacked off, enjoying the happiness of not having to go to work. After working as a warehouse clerk these days, his progress in making talismans and refining his body was delayed a lot. This was all a loss.

After drawing the talisman, Fang Jingxuan had lunch, continued to train his body in the afternoon, and started meditating in the evening.

After finishing all this, Fang Jingxuan called up the attribute panel and took a look, his expression became satisfied.

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Level 3 (233/600)]

[Talisman: Silent Note: 83/100]

[Physical Training Technique: Qingmu Health Training, Current Level, Qingmu Skin: 63/100]

The progress of cultivation increased by ten points, and it was progressing steadily. The experience of making talismans only increased by a little, which was okay.

The progress of body refining has increased by four points, which is a great improvement. By this calculation, by the time the New Year comes, I should have a breakthrough in both talisman making and body refining.
