Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family - Chapter 142:
Chapter 142: Chapter 92: Screwing on the Assembly Line!_3
A First Grade Middle Grade puppet costs about three hundred Spirit Stones.
A First Grade Superior Grade puppet costs about one thousand one hundred Spirit Stones.
A First Grade Supreme puppet costs about three thousand Spirit Stones.
After hearing the prices, Lu Changsheng bid farewell and left.
It was not that the prices were too high, he was just inquiring about how much the puppets could sell for.
Regarding the prices, Lu Changsheng could only say that puppets indeed made money,
but compared to talismans, they could only be considered as earning a bit of hard-earned money.
Of course, if the other party’s production resembled the assembly line process he envisioned, that would be a different story.
After buying the materials, Lu Changsheng didn’t return to the Spiritual Talisman Shop, but went straight home instead.
After all, there was a child born in the family today, so naturally, he wanted to go back early and check.
Once home, Lu Changsheng visited his newborn child and carried it to the yard to sit leisurely.
Occasionally sitting in the yard with the child, enjoying the quiet, was also a form of relaxation for Lu Changsheng.
Of course, that was under the premise that the child wasn’t crying.
After sitting quietly for a while, Bai He came to report to Lu Changsheng that Xia Long from next door had come to visit.
Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng immediately got up, handed the child to Bai He, and went to greet Xia Long with a hearty laugh.
This neighbor was a major customer of his.
Every few months, he would come to purchase talismans, and he would always buy Superior Grade Talismans.
He was considered a fairly stable channel for selling talismans.
“Lu Daoist, are you preparing for another adventure?”
Lu Changsheng arrived in the main hall, saw Xia Long, and asked.
He remembered that the latter had returned just a half a month ago.
“Yes, I am already fifty years old. If I don’t give it my all now, there won’t be any opportunity left.”
“Besides, there are twin children at home who are about to start their cultivation.”
Xia Long sighed and spoke thus.
Lu Changsheng knew that when he said there won’t be any opportunity left, he was referring to Foundation Establishment.
In the Cultivation World, there’s a widespread saying.
If a cultivator wants to tackle Foundation Establishment, the last age limit is sixty years old.
After sixty, the body will start to decline.
Not only will the chance of successfully establishing a foundation decrease, but the risk will also become greater.
After all, Foundation Establishment is no joke.
If the process fails, one might end up lightly wounded and regress in cultivation level,
or at worst suffer severe damage to the meridians, become a cripple, or even directly perish.
“Lu Daoist, what kind of talismans are you looking for this time?”
Lu Changsheng didn’t dwell on the topic but asked directly.
“Do you have any Thunder Summoning Talismans, Golden Light Barrier Talismans, Sweet Dew Talismans, and Escape Talismans?”
Xia Long inquired.
“There are several of those talismans carried by Lu. How many of each do you need, Xia Daoist?”
Lu Changsheng replied nonchalantly.
“Do you have two or three Thunder Summoning Talismans?”
Xia Long asked.
“Just so happens I have three. If you need them, Xia Daoist, I can sell all of them to you, as I just so happen to need to restock next month.”
Lu Changsheng said.
Of course, that was not true.
The talismans he sold to Xia Long were usually ones he had drawn for his own protection and carried on himself.
He had over a hundred Superior Grade Talismans.
And about fifty Supreme Talismans.
The reason there were only so many talismans and he didn’t draw more was partly because of limited time.
Furthermore, aside from personal defense, he had no secure channel for selling them.
Material costs were what they were, so it wasn’t good to stockpile too many.
“Then I thank you, Lu Daoist. Aside from the three Thunder Summoning Talismans, I would like one of each of the other three types of talismans.”
Xia Long said.
“Xia Daoist, you’re purchasing so many talismans this time. Is the place you’re going to particularly dangerous?”
“I also have a Thunder Talisman on me for personal protection. If you need it, I can sell that to you as well.”
Lu Changsheng thought that he was currently in need of money, and having dealt with Xia Long as a neighbor for so long,
He felt it was possible to sell the other party one or two Supreme Talismans.
After all, he did have a Thunder Talisman given to him by the Fourth Elder, which made the offer plausible.
“Hmm? Daoist Lu actually has a Supreme Talisman available for sale? I wonder at what price you are selling it!”
Upon hearing this, Xia Long’s face immediately lit up with joy.
“This is also for self-defense from my family elders. If Daoist Xia needs it, consider it as me selling next month’s Supreme Talisman from the store in advance.”
“As for the price, it’ll be the same as the store’s, two hundred and twenty Spirit Stones.”
Lu Changsheng said so.
“Okay, then thank you very much, Daoist Lu.”
Xia Long immediately clasped his hands in thanks.
In the Nine Dragons Market, Supreme Talismans were not so easy to buy.
Now that he heard there were some available, he naturally wanted to purchase them.
“Daoist Xia is too courteous.”
Lu Changsheng took out seven talismans from his Storage Bag and then said, “That will be a total of four hundred and ninety Spirit Stones, just give me four hundred and fifty Spirit Stones, Daoist Xia.”
He would always give Xia Long a discounted price when trading with him.
This was one of the reasons why the other party regularly came to him to purchase talismans.
Not only was the channel stable, the quality of the talismans was guaranteed, and the prices were relatively favorable.
“Alright, thank you, Daoist Lu.”
Xia Long was also very straightforward.
He took out four hundred and fifty Spirit Stones from his Storage Bag and then took his leave.
Lu Changsheng saw him out and then hummed contentedly, “Indeed, talismans are the true path to wealth, what good are those trashy puppet masters, they’re not worth a damn!”
The cost of these seven talismans, six Superior Grade Talismans, was about fifteen Spirit Stones.
And the cost for the Supreme Talisman Thunder Talisman was only seven Spirit Stones.
The cost of twenty-two Spirit Stones in total was sold for four hundred and fifty Spirit Stones, a profit of more than twenty times over!
It was completely incomparable to making puppets.
“I can go to White Jade Tower tomorrow.”
Looking at the warm Spirit Stones, Lu Changsheng thought to himself.
He also had over two hundred Spirit Stones on him, plus these four hundred and fifty, he could find one or two high-quality female cultivators.
At the same time, he hoped that Daoist Xia could return safely.
Otherwise, he would lose a stable major client.
The next day, Lu Changshsheng, with his Spirit Stones, arrived at the White Jade Tower.
Having been through the process before, he spent five hundred and eighty Spirit Stones and bought two maids.
One with a Ninth Grade Spiritual Root and the other with an Eighth Grade Spiritual Root.
Both were pitiful people with good looks and figures, which stirred compassion.
Lu Changsheng had a soft spot for such pitiable people.
Originally, he could have bought someone with a Seventh Grade Spiritual Root with the Spirit Stones he had.
But after some consideration, Lu Changsheng decided to buy two instead.
He wanted both quality and quantity!
As before, he would have to wait for notification from the White Jade Tower.
“Sigh, the White Jade Tower really is a gold mine. Next time I have money, I should first buy materials for Second Rank Talismans.”
Lu Changsheng walked out of the White Jade Tower, sighed, and shook his head.
In the blink of an eye, another half month passed.
Lu Changsheng’s forty-first child was born.
And at this time, Lu Changsheng was also preparing to return home for a visit.
There were still about ten days until the Lu Family’s Spiritual Root testing ceremony.
Lu Ping’an, Lu Wuyou, Lu Wuyu, and Lu Xile were all set to participate.
Even though he already knew the outcome, that the four children participating in the test had no Spiritual Root,
it was still the first time his children were attending the Spiritual Root testing ceremony.
He, as a father, had to go back and witness it.
“I hope there won’t be any mishaps this time when I go back alone,”
Lu Changsheng thought to himself as he walked.
To avoid drawing attention in the Marketplace for being too flamboyant,
he had disguised himself this time.
Transforming into a dark-skinned, ordinary-looking young man.
