The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 342: Overwhelming the crowd and getting off to a good start (please subscribe!)
  Fortunately, the space here is big enough, and the three talisman tables are placed here without looking crowded.

Otherwise, if they are too close, the talisman makers will inevitably affect each other when making talismans.

Standing in front of the first talisman table was Wan Li. Among them, his talisman-making skills were second only to Xu Zhiyu's. He was ranked first, of course as he should be.

"Nine runes were drawn on the first layer. It seems that this fellow Taoist Wan is ready to challenge a difficult one, but I don't know how many times he is going to stack it? Three to five times. It shouldn't be too difficult for him. If After five times, the difficulty suddenly increases, and maybe he wants to use the Jieyou Lingmo to break through the previous limit."

Standing in the middle of the three talisman tables, he looked left and right. The other two drew mid-level second-level talismans. There was nothing particularly worthy of attention. Only the talisman drawn by Wan Li made him pay a little more attention. At the same time, He is also speculating on his specific ability to make talismans.

The Talisman Makers who were watching were holding their breath and concentrating, not daring to make any sound. Their eyes were fixed on the three people making moves. Since the three of them can be ranked first, it means that they have too many things. It's worth learning from them.

Even those monks who are not familiar with the art of making talismans are interested in watching it. They usually buy the finished products directly from the talisman shop. They have always been very curious about the drawing process of the talisman, but they have never had the opportunity to see it before. Think about it , when the talisman maker was drawing the talisman, he was willing to stand next to a bunch of messy people to watch, it was not a monkey trick!

The surrounding air is full of spiritual energy of various attributes colliding with each other. Attracted by the runes on the talisman paper, through the talisman pen held tightly by the talisman maker, one after another got into the talisman paper. Fortunately, the source of the Xu family There are second-level high-grade spiritual vein nodes in Guangju underground. Otherwise, if so many people draw second-level spiritual talismans at the same time, the overflowing spiritual energy may not be enough for them to use.

Half an hour passed, and the other two people had successfully drawn their talismans. Xu Zhiyu, as the host, also made some comments at the request of the two people. Of course, it was mainly encouragement and praise. After all, today is a big day. It's not a gathering of Talisman Masters, so real guidance can be left for later.

The second-order high-grade spiritual talisman drawn by Wan Li failed. In fact, this result was also expected by Xu Zhiyu. When he found that after barely completing three superpositions, it still did not stop and continued to superimpose for the fourth time. This result was already doomed.

However, his level of talisman making was somewhat beyond his expectation. He didn't expect that he couldn't even do four superpositions. The difference between him and his nine superpositions was still quite large.

"Alas! Failed again!" Wan Li let out a long sigh, but then his face became happy again. He looked at Ling Mo next to the Ling Inkstone and praised:
  "But this spiritual ink is really magical. When drawing the spiritual talisman, it can make the control of the spiritual energy more convenient. For talisman makers, it is really a rare treasure!"

The other two Talisman Makers heard Wan Li's words and echoed:
  "Brother Wan is right. This spiritual ink is really useful. Fellow Daoist Xu, I wonder how much this thing costs? I will definitely buy a few pieces."

"It's absolutely true! To tell you the truth, with the help of Ling Mo, my second-level mid-level talisman-making technique has made progress again. This Ling Mo is worthy of the name of relieving worries. It's just right! Brother Xu is so ingenious that he actually Being able to develop such a magical treasure is really impressive!"

Xu Zhiyu was stunned for a moment. The singing and harmony of several people sounded too much like shills. If he hadn't been sure that he hadn't discussed it with them in advance, he would have doubted whether he had remembered it wrong.

However, he reacted instantly and followed the enquirer's words and said:

"Fellow Taoist, this item is priced at 2,500 spirit stones. However, the shop has just opened today. In addition, all the fellow daoists came to support me in person, so this item is sold at a 20% discount and only costs 2,000 spirit stones. In addition, fellow Daoist Lu You think too highly of Xu, this spiritual ink was passed down from the family, not developed by me, so it doesn't deserve such praise."

After he finished, he didn't forget to correct the mistakes in the other person's words. After all, this spiritual ink was not developed by him. In this unfamiliar place, it really shouldn't be too high-profile.

After listening to what he said, Wanli and the other three who had already tested it took out two thousand spiritual stones from the storage bag without changing their expressions. While handing them to him, they also got a piece of worry-relieving spiritual ink from his hand.

There were fifteen Talisman Makers who came to attend the opening ceremony, and they were divided into three groups to test the Worry-Relieving Spiritual Ink. It took about three quarters of an hour for each person, and nearly two hours had passed by the time everyone was finished.

With the end of the experiment, the sales of Jieyou Lingmo also ended. The results were gratifying, with a total of twenty-two yuan sold. Some people bought more than one piece. This alone made the store's sales easily. Breaking through 40,000 low-grade spiritual stones.

When he was about to invite everyone back to continue the banquet, Deacon Miao, who had been silent just now, suddenly laughed and said:
  "Wait a minute, fellow Daoist Xu, wait a minute, everyone, I'm not in a hurry to eat this banquet, because"

Hearing what he said, Wang Changyou, who had known him for decades, didn't know that he must have some evil idea, and said directly:

"Old man Miao, if you have something to say, just say it. If you have something to say, just fart. Why are you hesitating?"

Deacon Miao was not annoyed, he just smiled and continued:

"Since today is the grand day for the opening of Xu's Yuanguang Pavilion, as the host, how can you do it without showing off your skills!"

"Fellow Daoist Miao is right. We have been friends with Daoist Xu for a long time, but we have never seen Daoist Daoist draw magic talismans. Why not take advantage of today's opportunity and show off your skills? The Nu family is waiting for an eye-opener!" Hua Wu Xin said with a flirtatious look, it wasn't that she was interested in Xu Zhiyu, it was because of her personality.

Looking around, he found that everyone's eyes were glaring. He knew it was hard to refuse, so he nodded, went to the nearest talisman table, took out the talisman pen and talisman paper from the storage ring, then concentrated on calming down and clearing away distracting thoughts. He concentrated on drawing the talisman.

This time he chose the Tiangang Puppet Talisman, which he is already familiar with. This kind of talisman is the most difficult to draw among the second-level high-grade talismans. There are eleven second-level runes in the second level. In addition, it needs to be superimposed nine times. This kind of talisman is the second most difficult. Due to the twelve runes and the twelve superpositions of the Foundation Establishment Talisman, it was definitely not possible to draw the Foundation Establishment Talisman at that time, so he chose the slightly less difficult Tiangang Puppet Talisman.

As the runes were completed one after another and superimposed again and again, everyone was shocked from the beginning, and finally set off a storm in their hearts, just because Xu Zhiyu's ability to make runes greatly exceeded their expectations.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, you are so true." Wang Changyou opened his mouth wide. He wanted to say something but couldn't speak clearly, and he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.

"Amazing, a true master, I don't think I will ever be able to reach this level in my life!"

"Yes! Seeing that Fellow Daoist Xu is performing with ease, it shows that his true strength is far more than this. It is really hidden!"

"If I hadn't known that Fellow Daoist Xu would not accept me as his disciple, I would have kowtowed and became a disciple immediately!"

"To be honest with you, I know a second-level talisman maker from the 'Thousand Seal Pavilion'. I usually thought that he was the ceiling for second-level talisman makers. Now it seems that I have underestimated the world's heroes!"

"Yes! You said they are both Talisman Makers, why is the gap so huge?"

Listening to the endless flattery, Xu Zhiyu touched his nose, smiled lightly, cupped his hands towards everyone, and said softly:

"Xu has shown his shame!" After hearing this, everyone was speechless for a moment. Didn't you hear a word of our complimentary words?
  However, after he showed off, everyone showed more respect for him and spoke more politely. This is the iron law of the world of immortality, the strong is respected!
  It wasn't until the sun turned west that the monks who came to celebrate were ready to leave.

When he led everyone down from the third floor, he found that the hall on the first floor was crowded with people. Everyone in the Xu family was too busy to touch the floor, especially Xu Zhikai, who was temporarily in charge, and Xu Zhisong, who was in charge of collecting the spirit stones. They were so busy that they were dizzy, but the two The smile on his face never stopped, and it was the kind of smile that came from the heart.

After being polite and sending everyone off, Xu Zhiyu looked at the bustling crowd at the entrance of the store, leaning against the pillars in front of the store, thinking that today's opening ceremony could be considered perfect.

He didn't stay at the door for long, and after a while he went back to help the tribesmen. Others were busy working, so it was obviously inappropriate for him to be the shopkeeper.

Maybe it was the first day of business and the customers were looking for novelties, or maybe it was the 10% discount on the entire store today, which was attractive and the closing time was postponed until around midnight.

After closing time, everyone gathered together and let out a long sigh of relief.

“I’ve been busy all day and I’m so exhausted!”

"Who is not tired? My mouth is dry after talking. Nineteenth brother, didn't you have the spiritual tea brought by the clan leader? It was used to entertain guests today. I can smell the fragrance. Now the guests have left. , is it time for us to have a taste?" Xu Zhisong said in a hoarse voice.

Seeing the eager expressions of other tribesmen, Xu Zhiyu took out the tea leaves and prepared to share them with everyone.

"Brother Nineteen, I can just have a drink with my Taoist companion!"

Seeing that he wanted to make a cup of spiritual tea for everyone, Xu Zhigui dissuaded him and said that he had seen this kind of spiritual tea in the spiritual medicine garden when it was in the family, and it grew in a third-level spiritual medicine center, so the quality of the spiritual tea tree The level is self-evident. He thinks that his cultivation level is low and he is already lucky to be given a cup. How can he dare to think more?
  "Yes! Brother Nineteen and Brother Forty-Three are right, we can just share a cup. This high-grade spiritual tea should be reserved for entertaining distinguished guests!" Xu Zhili also said.

"No matter how expensive the guests are, they are still outsiders, not my Xu family, and you are all my Xu clan members. Since outsiders can drink, why can't you drink? Stop talking nonsense and do it!" Looking at the two clansmen who were grinding. Brother, he feigned anger.

"Brother Nineteen drank well. Today we have tea instead of wine and have a drink. I wish the store business will get better and better!" Xu Zhikai was infected by his words and said excitedly.

Although the others did not speak, their blood was stimulated by his words. When more than a dozen teacups touched together, the hearts of this group of people seemed to collide.

After drinking tea, Xu Zhili and Xu Zhigui took the Taoist companions back first. The few foundation builders did not move and began to take stock of today's income.

"Brother Eleven, you collected the spirit stones today. Tell me quickly, how many spirit stones did we earn today?" Xu Zhijuan asked anxiously.

Xu Zhisong looked over the jade slips used for accounting three times with some trembling, and finally said with some stuttering:

"We made a total profit. We made a profit."

Everyone looked at him with wide eyes, nervously waiting for the next step.

"Twenty-five thousand six hundred and eighty-five pieces of low-grade spiritual stones."

As soon as he said this, not to mention others, Xu Zhiyu himself was a little surprised. Coupled with the worry-relief spiritual inks he sold, today's turnover actually reached 170,000 spiritual stones, which is almost two years of store rent. .

Make big money!

This was everyone's first reaction, but after careful calculation, they realized that they didn't earn that much. These were just sales. The real profit was only about 20%, which worked out to about 25,000 spiritual stones. .

Some people may wonder, shouldn't there be 34,000 spiritual stones? That's because he didn't include the spiritual stones for selling the Jieyou Lingmo. This kind of spiritual ink was developed by himself according to the talisman. It has nothing to do with the family. It is just sold in Yuan Guangju in the name of the family, so he only needs to hand over 20% of the profit. But today he gave it to the former Everyone who came to celebrate got a 20% discount, so the store didn't earn a single spiritual stone.

"This is too much. I remember a few years ago, the amount of spiritual stones my family earned in Taoyuanfang City was only this much in a year, right?" Xu Zhikai asked hesitantly.

Xu Zhisong took a deep breath and said:
  "Actually, if you deduct the cost, it's far from that much, but it's still quite a lot. If this trend continues, we can earn back three years' rent in half a month. After all, Dafang City has strong spending power. !”

Seeing that everyone was full of longing for the future, Xu Zhiyu smiled slightly and said:

"It's a grand opening today. Everyone has worked hard. I make the decision. Everyone will have a reward. Five hundred for each of the Foundation Establishment clan members and one hundred for each of the Qi Lian clan members! In the future, everyone will need to work together. By the way, November Brother, Zhigui’s and the others’, you supply them tomorrow!”

As soon as these words came out, the originally beaming faces of those present became even more excited.

After everyone calmed down for a while, he continued:

"Today is the first day of opening, and there are discounts to attract many people. But tomorrow, there will be many fewer customers, and the business may not be as good as today. You must be mentally prepared and take a long-term view."

"Yes!"

After chatting for a long time, when everyone was about to go back to the house, Xu Zhikai suddenly slapped his head and said in annoyance:
  "You see, I almost forgot about business when I was so happy. Brother Nineteen, today a late-stage foundation-building monk asked you to draw talismans for free. At that time, you were entertaining guests, so I didn't disturb you. He said he would come again tomorrow. "

"Okay, I get it!" He said happily.
