Chapter 580: Chapter 244: Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng Family, South City’s Danxia Hall, 400,000 a Year!_3

Right now.

In the third floor of Danxia Hall.

Luo Chen, dressed in a white Taoist robe, was looking over the account books.

Across from him stood Gu Caiyi and Xu Xiao Liu, their hands clasped in a formal salute.

Perhaps it was due to Luo Chen’s increasingly profound cultivation, or perhaps his aura had grown more imposing.

The two of them stood reverently, not daring to even breathe too heavily.

With a glance from the corner of his eye at the two, Luo Chen continued to look through the account book.

One year!

The previous expenditure costs have all been earned back, with a considerable surplus.

A year ago, he had made the decision to rent this three-story building from Binglan Palace.

The rent paid was extremely cheap!

Part of the reason was that Yuelu Street was really remote, and most of its business was in raw material supply, lacking a commercial atmosphere.

The other reason was his cooperation with Dan Taijun.

The rent for this shop for a year was only five thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

Within Tianlan Immortal City, this was definitely considered cheap.

For the same area but slightly better located, the rent would be counted in tens of thousands.

Having this shop was a good thing for the Luo Tian Creed’s business!

It gave them a storefront sign.

In particular, it served as a safe and legitimate point of sale for the goods produced by Luo Tian Creed.

While Biyou Valley was good, it was ultimately too remote.

After Wang Yuan killed Cao Wanchun, a considerable amount of business was lost.

To nurture business and the commercial atmosphere was not something that could happen overnight.

Hence, Luo Chen chose to take a two-pronged approach.

Developing both inside and outside the city at the same time.

This year, aside from his daily cultivation, he set aside all technique training and spent almost all his time on pill refining and talent nurturing.

In the span of one year, he had tirelessly refined Jade Marrow Pills for seven months and Jade Dew Pills for four months.

In between, he also produced a large number of Tongyou Pills.

Such a huge pill refining project would not have been possible without his deep divine soul endowment, high comprehension in pill refining, and the coordination of the Pill Hall Cultivators.

The results were extremely pleasing.

He had refined a total of forty thousand Jade Marrow Pills!

Not only that.

Under his daily supervision and guidance, Qu Lingjun was finally able to reliably refine Medium Grade Jade Marrow Pills.

Even though the success rate was not high, and the number of pills made per batch was not as stable as Luo Chen’s.

Luo Chen almost tried to refine all the elixirs he knew.

And so, they were put on the shelves of Danxia Hall!

Not only that, but Danxia Hall also sold magic tools from the Equipment Hall.

These magic tools were not refined by the Equipment Hall, but rather, war trophies accumulated by Luo Tian Creed after many battles.

The best ones were kept for the use of Luo Tian Creed.

The rest, after some patching and repairing, could also be put on the shelf.

In addition, Feng Xia and Yuan Xiaoyue have returned to their old trade.

Immortal Beans, dried beef, milk tea, popcorn... and so forth.

They even researched new snacks like fried Celestial Silkworm Cloud Beans, Ten Fragrant Cardamom etc. based on the existing foundation.

It can be considered that they have utilized those crops without economic value grown in the Spirit Field productively.

Finally!

The current Danxia Hall had formed, seemingly a mishmash, but actually a shop housing a wide range of products.

However, with this.

Calculating cost-profit was a very tedious task.

Mistakes were oft made in the early stages.

To the extent that Luo Chen had to check the accounts from time to time.

Later on, only after Gu Caiyi, the Hall Master of the Golden Hall and the manager of Danxia Hall, got familiar with the process did she gradually sort out the various accounts.

Luo Chen had formed the habit from before.

So he would check in from time to time.

Now, he was looking at the annual total accounts.

“The Danxia Hall in Inner City had a gross profit of about 300,000 Spirit Stones in a year. The major contributors were the elixirs I refined and the magic tools from the Equipment Hall.”

“I had looked at the accounts for Biyou Valley before, the gross profit was around 100,000. The profit structure was mainly based on me and the Equipment Hall.”

“The pill refinement skills of Qu Lingjun and Mi Li have to be further improved. Their annual income combined currently contributes only around 10,000.”

If judging just from the perspective of individual rogue cultivators.

If it was just for two Qi Refinement Stage cultivators, being able to earn over 10,000 in a year was a considerable amount.

But for Luo Tian Creed as it is now, it is just the icing on the cake.

Far from what Luo Chen was during the early days.

But Luo Chen wasn’t bothered about that.

He is very patient with the duo.

Continued nurturing will definitely yield significant results.

“The annual gross profit is 400,000, which exceeds most of the Foundation Establishment Forces.”

“It’s because of me being a Pill Refiner that we have this income!”

Luo Chen reaffirmed the importance of his “esteemed Pill Refiner” status.

Afterward, he began calculating the quantity of Spirit Stones he could utilize.
