Big Devil: Starting from refining flying zombies

Chapter 92 Cheap Labor

After returning from the Artifact Refining Hall, in the courtyard, Liang Xiao conveniently put away the rough embryo of the Myriad Ghosts Mirror that had just been refined.

This rough embryo uses the ghost king's fine gold as the main material, and it is also mixed with high-grade ores such as Void Spirit Crystal and Soul Cultivation Jade to polish it into a mirror surface. Even if it is a top-grade spiritual weapon, it is quite sufficient.

As long as he continued to refine this treasure with ghosts with excellent qualifications, Liang Xiao would be able to obtain a powerful top-grade spiritual weapon.

But this matter is not urgent, Liang Xiao took a look at the empty and tragic situation in the Qiankun bracelet, and sighed deeply.

"It can be said that Lingshi has used up a lot of money this time. You have to save up as soon as possible, otherwise no matter what you do, it will be extremely difficult."

Lingshi is like money. When you have a lot of it, you don't feel much about it. You always feel that there are more things worth pursuing in this world.

But when it is lacking, it is day and night, sleep and food are difficult, and the only thing left in my heart is to go somewhere to make a quick fortune.

Although after he became a second-level refiner, the monthly distribution of spiritual stones by the sect increased by nearly 1000 yuan.

But with that little spiritual stone, the daily maintenance cost is about the same. If you want to be brave and diligent in your cultivation base, it is a drop in the bucket, not enough at all.

What's more, Liang Xiao's industries in the world of zombies and the world of giant beasts require him to provide subsidies occasionally, and he is not alone.

"If you want to earn spirit stones, you still have to sell magical artifacts, but I'm already a second-level artisan, and I waste time on refining fake spiritual artifacts every day. If this slows down the progress of my practice, it's really putting the cart before the horse. The gain outweighs the loss."

Liang Xiao pondered for a moment, he is now refining fake spirit weapons, which is no longer enough to improve his refining skills.

And using the strange ore materials from Tianlan Continent to upgrade the production line so that it can assist in the refining of spiritual weapons, Liang Xiao just thought about it for a while, and immediately interrupted this idea.

According to his current refining skills, it is almost impossible to use the materials from Tianlan Continent to improve and upgrade the production line.

Because the current first-order pseudo-spiritual weapon production line is the original technological product of the zombie world.

The casting process of the second-order spirit weapon is more complicated, and many parts of it, even if they are still in the rough embryo stage, require mana to participate in the operation.

Liang Xiao estimated that in order to upgrade the production line of this magic weapon, at least he would have to wait for him to combine his expertise in technology and refining before he could design it.

Even with the superhuman understanding of a cultivator, this must be a project that consumes a lot of energy.

At this stage, he still has to focus on cultivation. After the foundation is established, his understanding and wisdom will increase, and it will not be too late to think about it.

Liang Xiao felt conflicted and paced around the yard, feeling that his thoughts had entered a dead corner.

To put it simply, he wanted a lot of spirit stones, but he didn't want to do hard work with very low added value.

At this moment, several attendants including Ding Fu, Qi Meng, the Lu family sisters and Pang Yuan came in from the door.

Tsk, I seem to have seen some cheap labor.

Liang Xiao's frown was loosened, and a look of enlightenment suddenly appeared on his face.

But Ding Fu didn't notice it, and was talking excitedly to Liang Xiao in the courtyard about the news he had just inquired about.

"Senior brother Liang, you actually became a second-tier craftsman with your qi training stage. This story has spread throughout the inner sect, and everyone praises you as a rare craftsman in the Wanmo Nest for hundreds of years!"

The sisters of the Lu family walked over with winking eyes, hugged Liang Xiao from left to right, coquettishly wanting to see his jade token of a second-level craftsman.

Pang Yuan looked at this scene enviously, not because he cared about Liang Xiao's blessings, but regretfully said:
"It's a pity that learning to refine weapons is really a huge investment. Not many inner disciples dare to try it, and it is even rarer among the outer sects."

Qi Meng also nodded in a gruff voice, saying that craft refining has a better future than farming.

At this moment, Liang Xiao squinted his eyes and said, "Want to learn how to refine weapons? Let me teach you, no spirit stones!"

The yard was suddenly quiet.

"Hahaha, Brother Liang is so funny!"

Ding Fu scratched his head hesitantly, feeling that the atmosphere was a little awkward, so he grinned and laughed twice.

The rest of the people were just about to laugh when they saw Liang Xiao stretch out his hand and slapped Ding Fu on the forehead, and said with a sneer, "Funny?"

Ding Fu was in a daze, and hesitated for a long while before saying: "Brother Liang, are you really going to teach us how to forge weapons? Don't you want spirit stones? We're not..."

He originally wanted to say that the Wanmoku is not a good place, but after a while, as if thinking of some possibility, Ding Fu's face turned pale.

As for Qi Meng's ramming, he struggled for a while, and even directly said the biggest possibility in everyone's heart.

"Brother Liang Xiao, you are not planning to trick us into the secret room, and then use our blood to sacrifice the magic weapon? If you are discovered by the sect, you will pay a large sum of spirit stones..."

Liang Xiao was laughed out of anger, and gave Qi Meng a backhanded slap, thinking that you are quite considerate of senior brother.

But looking at the hesitant faces of several people, he still explained patiently.

"I have a plan that requires a large number of people who are proficient in refining weapons. As the people I trust most in the sect, you naturally give priority to it."

Pang Yuan is the highest among the attendants, and has reached the sixth level of Qi training. Seeing that the expression on Liang Xiao's face does not seem to be fake, he immediately made up his mind and said:
"Senior brother Liang Xiao's behavior has been witnessed by all in recent years. Anyway, I can be trusted. Even if he wants to sacrifice my blood, Pang Yuan will have no regrets!"

Liang Xiao glanced at this guy, he didn't expect that this guy who usually doesn't smile, can speak beautiful words at critical times.

With the first person to express their opinion, the remaining few naturally did not dare to hesitate, and decided to support all the decisions of Senior Brother Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao looked at the pitiful expressions of several people who regarded death as home, shook his head in disdain, and said:

"Whatever you think, clean up now and follow me to the fire room. If it's really unbearable, I won't force it!"

After finishing speaking, Liang Xiao slowly steered the bone boat and flew towards the sky.

Several attendants looked at each other, feeling that Liang Xiao was serious, how could he dare to be negligent, so they quickly used their own methods and chased after him.

As for Liang Xiao in front, he looked back at everyone and naturally had his own considerations.

He thought that the biggest role of the refining production line today is actually to be reflected in the scale.

If it was running at full capacity, hundreds of rough pseudo-spiritual weapons could be refined every day, and even if he died of exhaustion, he would never be able to use them up.

Serving only one person is indeed a huge waste of productivity.

At this stage, the mass production of more fake spirit tools will bring even greater benefits to Liang Xiao.

And more importantly, Liang Xiao's secret strength has grown, and his ability to take risks has become stronger. Naturally, he should be relatively bold and seek benefits for himself.

For these few attendants under him, Liang Xiao already had a preliminary plan.

He doesn't need to start from the basics and teach slowly like training ordinary craftsmen. He can teach them to engrave a few magic weapon restrictions just like training skilled workers.

In this way, although these people don't know how to smelt magical artifacts at all, they can only engrave a few restrictions on one or two magical artifacts.

But so what, the advantage of this is that the teaching cost is extremely low.

As long as these few refining tools are half-baked and the failure rate during refining is not too outrageous, the profit of the finished magic weapon will still easily exceed the cost of raw materials.

When the time is right, there will be more cheap labor in the outer sect, waiting to be used. At that time, these few refining tools will be able to take the initiative to undertake teaching tasks.

And if Liang Xiao's background is strong enough, he can even easily monopolize the sales of fake spirit tools, that is, use the pricing advantage lower than the general cost price to quickly seize the sales market of fake spirit tools.

"Hmph, it's time to end the petty squabbles, let the land of the Three Kingdoms experience what a real dumping strategy is!"
