I rely on length to cultivate immortality

During these four days, Li Xiuchang spent the rest of his time as a hands-off shopkeeper, cultivating in the quiet room with peace of mind, except for pickling the spirit meat.

However, he was always keeping a time in mind. When the time came, he immediately came out to check the quality of the smoked meat.

With Senior Brother Wang Long supervising day and night, the hired stokers naturally could not be lazy, so the thirty furnaces of smoked meat were all perfect, without failure or insufficient fire.

Only the piece of first-level monster meat, Li Xiuchang took it down and looked at it, it was still a long way from being successfully smoked.

It looked like it could be successfully smoked, but it would take a lot of time.

Considering the high purchase price of first-level monster meat and the time cost, Li Xiuchang weighed it and gave up the idea of ​​smoking first-level monster meat in large quantities.

Perhaps when his cultivation level is improved and the smoke generated is stronger, the smoking time can be shortened.

"Three senior brothers have worked hard, go back and rest for a day, and come back the day after tomorrow."

Li Xiuchang thanked the three stokers and paid them all their wages.

After working non-stop for four days, the three of them were exhausted and did not feel that taking a day off delayed their earning of spirit stones.

Li Xiuchang was a little worried that they might not want to work anymore, so he deliberately said "Come back the day after tomorrow" to test them.

Unexpectedly, the three of them nodded and did not intend to run away.

Even Senior Brother Ma Lian sighed: "These four days of non-stop circulation of magic power have made my cultivation a little more advanced, so it can be regarded as not delaying my practice."

The other two also agreed: "Yes, it is too boring to practice in seclusion on weekdays, and I am always distracted. Here with Wang Long's supervision, I am more focused. I have earned spirit stones and improved my cultivation!"

Li Xiuchang was relieved after hearing this and sent the three away.

On the other side, Senior Brother Wang Long could not wait to collect the smoked spirit meat and picked up the knife to start cutting the meat.

Li Xiuchang also stepped forward to join in. He had superb knife skills and was much more skillful than Wang Long in cutting meat strips.

Together, the two of them quickly cut 1,500 strips of meat.

Each strip of meat was of uniform size, and the effect was equivalent to a fasting pill.

Wang Long packed ten strips of meat into a group, and left with the smoked meat strips.

Li Xiuchang gave full authority to Wang Long for the sales work. He only charged 1.5 spirit stones for a group of meat strips, and he did not ask how much Wang Long sold or how he sold it.

…

Wang Long left at noon, and came back in the evening with a happy face.

“Junior brother, sell them all!” he said excitedly.

“Good!”

Li Xiuchang was also full of joy.

Although he was confident in his own products, Li Xiuchang was not completely at ease until he really sold these smoked spirit meats.

For 1,500 smoked meat strips, Li Xiuchang received a total of 225 low-grade spirit stones.

Excluding the cost, he also earned more than 180 spirit stones.

However, Wang Long bought another 80 spirit stones of spirit meat, so Li Xiuchang only had 145 spirit stones left.

After paying back the borrowed spirit stones with interest, and counting the income from selling "smoke-collecting rights" in the past few days, Li Xiuchang still has 125 spirit stones left.

It doesn't seem much, but it's mainly because the cost of investment is too high. Now after deducting all the costs, there is still so much surplus, which is already very good.

And tomorrow, when the remaining five furnaces of smoked spirit meat are completed, it will be another large amount of spirit stones!

Wang Long couldn't close his mouth with a smile. Today's income is equivalent to his income for more than a month in the past!

Since becoming a talisman master, it is the first time that he feels... the future is promising!

...

Li Xiuchang chatted with Wang Long for a while and learned that he didn't go to the market at all. He sold out the 1,500 meat strips in the sect.

He knew very well who the customer group of smoked spirit meat was.

Foundation-building cultivators can practice fasting, and only Qi-training cultivators need fasting pills.

So his target is those Qi-training disciples who have plenty of money and good backgrounds. Only they will spend more than the price of fasting pills to buy smoked spirit meat for "deliciousness".

In fact, these people are all concentrated in the Xianchen Sect. Those Qigong casual practitioners in the market are all in a miserable state. Few people will buy smoked spiritual meat to satisfy their appetite.

Wang Long has worked in the reception office for many years and knows exactly which "children of wealthy families" are in the outer sect. He went door-to-door to sell and easily sold out all the smoked spiritual meat.

The next day, the second batch of 2,500 smoked meat strips came out!

This time, Wang Long sold out the smoked meat strips in less than two hours and brought back 375 spiritual stones for Li Xiuchang!

Li Xiuchang's spiritual stones finally broke through the 500 mark.

With more money on hand, they naturally considered expanding the scale of production again.

However, after discussing for a while, the two felt that they could not expand blindly.

Smoked meat strips are like the Bigu Pill. There is definitely a long-term demand and market, but they are also as durable as the Bigu Pill.

A bottle of Bigu Pill can be used for about a month, but that is when you don't eat or drink at all.

In fact, people only take the Bigu Pill when they are in seclusion to practice or concentrate on studying skills, and they still eat normally on weekdays.

After all, ordinary food is cheaper and more delicious than Bigu Pill.

Therefore, a bottle of Bigu Pill is used for more than one month on average, and the same is true for their smoked spirit meat.

Moreover, the customer base of smoked spirit meat is so small, far less than the number of audiences of Bigu Pill.

At the beginning, smoked spirit meat must be easy to sell, but the number of wealthy Qi training disciples in Xianchen Sect is also limited.

Once most of the customer base has purchased smoked spirit meat, it may take a long time before they will repurchase it again.

Therefore, we cannot expand rapidly just because the business is good now.

We still have to take steady steps.

"Add another twenty furnaces, and make a hundred furnaces. We will adjust the scale later according to the sales situation." Li Xiuchang decided.

One hundred furnaces can produce five thousand smoked meat strips every five days, which can bring Li Xiuchang an average of more than one hundred spirit stones of income every day.

The expansion of the scale is still handed over to Senior Brother Wang Long. Li Xiuchang is only responsible for pickling spirit meat and making fire, so he has a lot of free time.

In the past few days of cultivation, thanks to the help of the spiritual paulownia wood, Li Xiuchang's cultivation has improved a lot, and the speed of cultivation is much faster than before.

But compared with other outer disciples with middle-grade spiritual orifices, he is still not as good.

Li Xiuchang can absorb wood attribute spiritual power from the spiritual wood, but the fire attribute spiritual power still depends on his own cultivation.

He is a low-grade spiritual orifice, and the speed of converting fire attribute spiritual power is too slow, but the fire attribute spiritual power is insufficient. Even if there is more wood attribute spiritual power, it cannot be converted into mana.

The short board determines the upper limit.

Of course, this is not without remedy.

Li Xiuchang had an idea long ago, but he was short of money before and could not implement it.

Now he has enough spirit stones, and his next priority is to improve his cultivation.

During this period, he had an idea in his mind.

He found that he had been trapped in a thinking error.

Since he wanted to use "length" to cultivate immortals, why not directly increase his own mana to improve his cultivation?

"Next is the krypton gold time, krypton! No matter what the cost, cultivate to the third level of Qi training first!"

At the third level of Qi training, a weak spiritual consciousness can be formed, and internal vision can be seen.

Once Li Xiuchang can see the mana in his body, then the improvement of cultivation may no longer need to rely on cultivation.
