I can gather experience beads

Danlingbao Pavilion.

VIP Room.

Cao Rui was sitting opposite Sun Ming.

The main force of the Spirit Beast Sect has set out to return to the mountain gate this morning.

Cao Rui also officially took over the market town.

With two true disciples and more than ten inner disciples assisting him, Cao Rui has nothing to do on a daily basis except controlling the formation plate.

Therefore, Cao Rui had time to meet Sun Ming for tea and talk.

At this time, Sun Ming was looking at Cao Rui in disbelief.

"Fellow Daoist Chen... no, I should call you Master Cao!" Sun Ming pondered for a moment and spoke with a look of surprise.

He originally thought that Cao Rui was just an ordinary casual cultivator or a talented alchemist from a small force, but now he found that he had completely misjudged him.

"So you are the alchemist of the Spirit Beast Sect!"

Sun Ming widened his eyes and looked at Cao Rui in disbelief.

"I was wondering, how could an ordinary force possibly cultivate such an outstanding alchemist like you, Master Cao?" Sun Ming couldn't help but sigh.

He finally understood why Cao Rui had such superb alchemy skills. It turned out that he came from the Lingshou Sect, a behemoth in the southwest of Yunzhou.

Cao Rui smiled slightly and waved his hand: "Sun Ming, there is no need to be like this, we should just be friends as equals."

From the beginning to the end, Cao Rui didn't pay much attention to the concept of status. He could only continue to maintain a good cooperative relationship with Sun Ming.

"Haha, I won't be polite then, Old Cao!" Sun Ming was also a smart man. Since Cao Rui had said so, he stopped being pretentious and immediately climbed up the pole.

Sun Ming was still secretly excited and felt that he was really lucky.

At first, he just felt that Cao Rui was straightforward and had a good temper, and that he got along well with him, and that the pills he refined were excellent, so he wanted to make friends with him.

But no one expected that Cao Rui was actually the alchemist of the Spirit Beast Sect, and was rumored to be the powerful senior official in charge of the Spirit Beast Sect's Alchemy Institute.

You should know that the disciples of a sect are generally very arrogant. They disdain to communicate with independent cultivators and cultivators from small forces, and they act superior to each other.

Now I am on good terms with Cao Rui, it feels like a dream.

Now that we have become brothers with the managers of the market town, it will be hard for this branch of the market town not to have a prosperous business.

"Old Cao, Qingling Market is now completely under the control of the Spirit Beast Sect, right? Is everything still the same?" Sun Ming asked softly with a smile on his face.

Since he has this relationship with Cao Rui, he naturally has to make full use of it.

If there are any changes, Danlingbao Pavilion will be able to make corresponding countermeasures in the first time.

Cao Rui smiled and nodded as he explained in detail: "That's right, at present, Qingling Market is completely controlled by the Spirit Beast Sect. Previously, the Yunshui Sect did not dare to build Qingling Market openly and only dared to manage it secretly."

"But now the Spirit Beast Sect is different. They will directly send disciples to carry out frontal management. In this way, safety and reliability will be improved."

After hearing this, Sun Ming felt relieved.

He knew that the Spirit Beast Sect, as one of the three major sects in the southwest, was very powerful.

Now they have even defeated the Yunshui Sect head-on.

Now that the market is managed openly, it is indeed more beneficial to the Qingling Xiuxian Market than the Yunshui Sect's previous cover-up.

This is undoubtedly good news for Danlingbao Pavilion.

In addition, since Cao Rui took over the Qingling Xiuxian Market, he has not made any changes to the market's operating model.

For those independent cultivators who come to the market town, they can still enter for free without paying any spirit stone fees.

The main source of income for the market town comes from the rent of shops in the market town and the rental income from hundreds of caves for cultivation.

At the same time, the Qingling Xiuxian Market has also set up a special area for individual cultivators to set up stalls, but the stalls here also charge a certain fee, which is also an important source of income for the market.

According to Cao Rui's estimation, the total annual income of the market town is about 30,000 spirit stones.

After deducting the offerings paid to the disciples and the costs of maintaining the formation, it is estimated that there will be a surplus of about 20,000 spirit stones.

This is already a considerable income, and it is stable. In theory, as long as the market is well managed, this income will be inexhaustible.

Moreover, with the development of the market, its income will continue to rise for some time.

"That's great!" Sun Ming smiled happily: "With the protection of the Spirit Beast Sect, this market will definitely be more popular."

Cao Rui nodded slightly, then turned and asked, "Sun Ming, where are the elixirs I need? Have you prepared them?"

Sun Ming scratched his head and answered, "Old Cao, we have to wait another three to five days. Isn't it the news that your Spirit Beast Sect and Yunshui Sect have started a war that has spread?"

"In order to avoid being dragged into the battlefield and causing losses, our trade routes have temporarily stopped supplying goods for a few days."

"Lao Cao, as soon as the elixir arrives, I will deliver it to you immediately!"

Cao Rui nodded slightly to show his understanding. Now he has been staying in this market for a long time, so it is enough for the supplies to arrive. There is no need to rush in the next few days.

"I have another business I want to discuss. I can probably spare five hours every day to refine the Yellow Dragon Pill." Cao Rui said.

Next, in Qingling Xiuxian Market, out of the twelve hours a day, Cao Rui only needed two hours to rest and recover his soul.

In the remaining ten hours, Cao Rui spent five hours researching and developing elixirs, and the other five hours refining the Yellow Dragon Pill to earn spirit stones.

For Cao Rui, who possesses experience beads, earning spirit stones is equivalent to practicing.

It can be predicted that in the future, when refining new spiritual medicines, the massive amount of spiritual medicine materials needed will need to be purchased with spiritual stones.

As soon as Cao Rui opened his mouth, Sun Ming immediately understood what Cao Rui meant and was overjoyed.

"That's a great feeling!"

"Old Cao, the quality of the pills you refine is ridiculously high, just right for the signature of our Danlingbao Pavilion!"

"Old Cao, give us these five hours. We at Danlingbao Pavilion will provide you with the spiritual materials for the Yellow Dragon Pill. After deducting the cost of refining the Yellow Dragon Pill, I will give it to you at the highest market price."

The raw materials for Huanglong Dan are about ten spirit stones per portion on the market, and the average output rate of one portion is about 18 pills. Cao Rui can achieve a 20% output rate of pills, and the lowest selling price is thirteen spirit stones per bottle (ten pills).

Given the quality of the Yellow Dragon Pill refined by Cao Rui, it is completely fine to sell it for fifteen cents.

Danlingbao Pavilion bought back the spirit stones at a high price of thirteen per piece, and since the materials were collected by themselves, it was still profitable.

Based on the price of thirteen spirit stones, Cao Rui can earn about 16 spirit stones per share.

In five hours, Cao Rui can refine about six portions, producing 120 Huanglong pills every day, which is 12 bottles, and about 360 bottles a month.

The current sales volume of Danlingbao Pavilion in Qingling Market cannot meet this consumption, but as Qingling Market is expected to continue to be popular, Sun Ming thinks it is completely fine to stockpile some pills in advance.

Cao Rui also calculated his daily income.

According to the current five-hour pill output, the daily income is 96 spirit stones, and the monthly income can reach spirit stones.
