Chapter 581: Chapter 245 The Guest of Honor Has Arrived!_1

Gross profit, just as it is, gross profit.

Becasue the various costs have not yet been subtracted from within it.

Raw materials?

This isn’t a lot, the raw materials for a Jade Marrow Pill only cost five Spirit Stones.

Even if it was affected by the war and increased to six, it’s merely insignificant.

Adding up his loss in refining Jade Dew Pill, Tongyou Pill, and other elixirs at a deficit... the total costs only amount to 40,000 Spirit Stones, that’s it.

In terms of rent, Danxia Hall is 5,000 Spirit Stones per year.

The price won’t rise for now, he is still in the honeymoon period with Ice Castle, and can continue to take advantage of this discounted price.

The largest part of the costs are still labor!

If pill refining is carried out all year round in full force, the cultivators of the Pill Hall and Medicine Hall are almost exhausted.

Under these circumstances, in addition to the basic salary, Luo Chen certainly has to give out a lot of rewards.

These two halls alone consume 60,000 pieces of Spirit Stones in a year.

The Battle Hall, responsible for protection and transportation, does not need to give rewards; the basic salary is sufficient.

About 60,000 Spirit Stones a year.

The Golden Hall, responsible for sales, is the most important link besides pill refinement!

In addition to basic salaries, Luo Chen gave not rewards, but commissions.

For every bottle of elixir sold, whether it is a Jade Marrow Pill, or a crudely processed Nourishing Origin Liquid, he promised to give a commission of two Spirit Stones.

In view of the few female cultivators in the Golden Hall, and their realm not too high.

After giving very high treatment, the expenditure is only 20,000 Spirit Stones.

“So calculated, the cost of ordinary cultivators is around 140,000. Adding materials and rent, it is no more than 180,000.”

“What consumes a lot is the high-level cultivators.”

For the high levels of the Luo Tian Creed, the salaries Luo Chen gives out far exceed those of the ordinary lower levels.

Let’s not mention Sima Hui Niang, Murong Qinglian, and the likes.

Even Zhou Yuanli, Liu Qiang, and such old men only get three to four hundred Spirit Stones a month.

Even so, if you add up a group of Ninth Level Qi Refinement, it still equates to 60,000 a year!

You see, these people are the least in number.

In addition, there are Wang Yuan and Duan Feng, who enjoy a treatment of 3,000 Spirit Stones a month.

One person per year, at least 30,000 Spirit Stones!

“With all these taken into account, the annual expenditure is at least 300,000 Spirit Stones!”

After calculating this account!

Even if Luo Chen was mentally prepared, he was still taken aback.

No wonder Wang Haichao was so stingy in the past, and almost never gave a fixed salary to his cultivators.

No wonder Mi Shuhua didn’t want the Broken Mountain Gang to produce a second Foundation Establishment True Cultivator, who would need to consume at least 30,000 to 40,000 Spirit Stones a year.

A regular Foundation Establishment Force, how could they afford such huge expenditures!

He, Luo Chen, is the only one who has this capability, has this courage!

If Wang Haichao was still alive and saw Luo Chen being so generous, he would have said that Luo Chen is a fool!

However, Luo Chen sees through things better than anyone.

These expenses are all very necessary.

Those people have got what they should get.

If not for their contributions, where would there be such a substantial income.

Not to mention, Duan Feng getting 30,000 a year, is it a lot?

Not at all!

Firstly, he is a Foundation Establishment True Cultivator.

Secondly, he has brought in an annual output of 80,000 to 90,000 Spirit Stones from the Equipment Hall.

The 400,000 is not just the income from the Pill Hall.

Lastly, once Duan Feng brings the people of the Equipment Hall into the fold, the self-production and self-sales will also be a steady source of income.

As for Wang Yuan, getting 30,000 a year, is it a lot?

It seems he has no output right!

However, all along the way for Luo Tian Creed, Wang Yuan has always been providing combat security.

In the battle against the Fu Family, he broke through the impregnable fortress.

In the battle of Xiao Huan Mountain, he held his own against the pressure from Duan Qiankun.

In the battle of Gaoling Plains, he defeated Huo Hu across the ranks.

There must be many good items that he doesn’t know about.

Just like the existence of Taibai Liquor!

He can also visit the Wanbao Pavilion more often.

It is said that they recently launched a new type of Flying Boat, which can be steered on land within the Immortal City. It seems to be a simplified version of his Langqi Flying Boat.

Once it hit the market, it was immediately favored by the cultivators.

With the research and development capabilities of Wanbao Pavilion, they must be selling cultivation aid tools targeting Foundation Establishment cultivators.

“Thud!”

A soft sound rang out.

Luo Chen woke up from his deep thoughts, looking over.

It was Xu Xiao Liu, who had been standing for a long time and accidentally bumped into the wall behind him.

“President, I’m sorry...”

“It’s okay!”

Luo Chen smiled, knowing he had been thinking for too long.

Looking at the two of them, Luo Chen praised:

“You guys have been doing really great lately!”

Xu Xiao Liu scratched his head and laughed, “That’s because you came up with great ideas, President. Once the flyers were out, even though our Danxia Hall is remote, customers still came.”

“We should have thought of this earlier.”

Luo Chen smiled faintly.

It’s just a flyer, nothing special.

It’s just that the cultivators refuse to lower their dignity to do such things.

Xu Xiao Liu is not bad, once I brought up the idea of flyers, he came up with the idea of engraving a map on the back.

In this way, even those who do not currently need pills will keep such flyers.

“Caiyi, you’ve also done a great job!”

Under Luo Chen’s appreciative gaze, Gu Caiyi proudly puffed out her chest.

She smiled, “I’m just implementing the things you taught me before, President. I dare not take credit.”

Luo Chen shook his head, “I am not just talking about those female cultivators.”

“This relatively large shop, from nothing to something, is primarily managed by you. The hardships you’ve faced are all seen by me.”

Gu Caiyi wanted to say something modest, but at the last moment, she choked up.

Just as Luo Chen said, within this year, she truly has gone through numerous hardships.

When she was in The Great River District, although she also had experience operating a shop,

At that time, the place was small, there were few people, and a lot of customers were lower in rank than her.

Even when she encountered high-ranking cultivators, she had Zeng Wen by her side to assist her.

Now Zeng Wen is gone.

It’s her turn to bear the weight of the entire Golden Hall.

She has to deal with all kinds of people. The slightest mistake is something she cannot bear.

Indeed, as Luo Chen said, there are hardships that outsiders don’t know about!

She didn’t know how many times she was awaken in the middle of the night, worrying about how to do the best business the next day.

Luckily!

All these efforts were worth it.

He has been watching all along.

It’s not comforting words, it’s genuine praise!

“All my efforts are expected,” she still managed to control her emotions and speak politely.

Luo Chen showed a warm smile.

“There’s no ‘should’ or ‘shouldn’t’, if you’ve done well, there should naturally be a reward.”

“I recently researched something small that is greatly beneficial to female cultivators, you can try it after closing the shop.”

Gu Caiyi blinked her big eyes, showing a look of anticipation.

If Luo Chen said that it’s greatly beneficial for female cultivators,

It must really be very effective.

“Caiyi, I am at ease with you managing things here in Danxia Hall. Over in Biyou valley, when it comes to training the maids, you can go and give some guidance when you have time...”

As he spoke, Luo Chen’s voice gradually weakened.

His gaze inclined towards the outside.

As if, he pierced through the wooden doors and windows of the building, looking at a figure standing in the street for a long time.

“An honored guest has arrived!”
