I rely on length to cultivate immortality

"It's you!"

A person behind Li Xiuchang and Senior Brother Wang Long said in unison.

"Do you know each other?" Wang Long was surprised.

"I've met twice." Li Xiuchang said with a smile.

The man behind Wang Long was Senior Brother Pockmarked, a professional "taxi boat driver". He twice recruited Li Xiuchang to ride in his flying boat, but he was blocked once by Senior Brother Zhang Wanzhi and once by Li Xiuchang's "Senior Brother is a Talisman Master?"

Seeing that the pockmarked senior brother still had some resentment in his eyes, Li Xiuchang said magnanimously: "If senior brother doesn't want to do it, it's not too late to regret it now."

The pockmarked senior brother forced out a smile: "What junior brother said, what I thought was too stingy."

It is not easy for a first-level talisman master to earn some spiritual stones. He has struggled to get this job, and he is not willing to give it up.

If you are lucky, you can earn more than one spiritual stone a day by flying a flying boat to carry people, but you may not be able to get even one customer a day.

Although the remuneration for this job given by Li Xiuchang was not high, it was better than stability.

"If there's no problem, let's get to work!" Senior Brother Wang Long couldn't wait to urge the three of them.

Several people took action immediately. Wang Long and three talisman masters cut the bacon and placed it above the stove.

Li Xiuchang began to light fires for thirty stoves one after another.

Seeing the billowing smoke coming from the stove, the three Talisman Masters still showed shock and envy, even though they had heard Wang Long say it before.

Li Xiuchang did not shy away from hiding his charcoal magic power. As for the method of smoking meat, it was not a secret. Even if others knew it, they would not be able to imitate it.

The amount of smoke produced by a stove can probably smoke the equivalent of fifty meat sticks at the same time.

Li Xiuchang purchased thirty spiritual stones worth of non-level spiritual meat, which was smoked in thirty furnaces at once.

At this point, costs and benefits can be calculated.

The production cycle of smoked spiritual meat is five days, one day of curing and four days of smoking.

The total cost of hiring three Talisman Masters for four days is twelve spirit stones.

The cost of raw materials is thirty spirit stones.

The total cost is a total of forty-two spiritual stones.

As for the cost of renting a stove, it is basically negligible.

Thirty stoves can produce 1,500 bacon strips in five days. Based on the calculation of 1.5 spiritual stones for ten meat strips, 225 spiritual stones can be obtained.

After excluding the cost, Li Xiuchang can make a net profit of more than 180 spirit stones!

Earning one hundred and eighty spiritual stones in five days, this speed can make all the first-level craftsmen in the outer sect cry with envy, and make the first-level talisman masters die with envy.

The key is, if you invest these 180 spirit stones, hire more people, rent more stoves, purchase more raw materials, increase production, you can still make more!

Of course, whether we should expand the scale of production still depends on the sales of this first batch of bacon.

All thirty furnaces were running, and the three hired talisman masters were all busy.

After Li Xiuchang observed it, he realized that it was not easy for these three senior brothers who were in the late stage of Qi training to keep ten furnaces running at the same time.

Basically, there is no stopping at all, and the ten furnaces have to be constantly replenished with mana. They are as busy as donkeys in the production team, spinning constantly.

Obviously, in order to save costs, Senior Brother Wang Long also made the best use of his people.

Li Xiuchang sighed, Senior Brother Wang is such a warm and honest person, but he has also learned the tricks of capitalists and squeezed his fellow sufferers.

Li Xiuchang didn't need to smoke the meat himself, so he took out the stove magic weapon he bought earlier and placed the marinated piece of first-order monster meat on the stove, ready to try smoking it.

As soon as he lit the fire, Senior Brother Wang Long snatched his job away.

"Junior brother, I can just keep an eye on it for you, and you can go and do your work."

Li Xiuchang was also happy about this. Senior Brother Wang Long was supervising the work and helping him take care of the stove at the same time. Without delay, he could also free up his hands to do other things.

He currently has two things on hand, one is to practice alchemy, and the other is to try to practice "Burning Fire Technique" with the purchased lingtong wood.

In the small courtyard of No. 18 in Donggeng District, several people were busy, but they didn't know how much noise they were making outside.

…

"what is that?"

"Who lit the beacon? Could someone be attacking our Fairy Dust Sect?"

"I'm overthinking it. It's not like our Xianchen Sect doesn't have sound transmission means, so there's no need for beacon communication."

"That's right, and who dares to attack our Fairy Dust Sect after eating the guts of Xiong Jingxin and Leopard Demon? It's a life-threatening situation!"

The disciples of the Xianchen Sect coming and going looked at the huge smoke column rising in the east and talked about it.

The plume of smoke was spectacular, like a waterfall connecting heaven and earth, gathering high in the sky, accumulating more and more.

The Fairy Dust Sect's sect-protecting formation usually does not block wind, frost, rain, snow and fog, but the formation also has the effect of gathering spirits. The smoke also carries spiritual energy, so it is bound by the gathering effect and cannot be dispersed.

This vision also alerted the Xianchen Sect's outer law enforcement hall.

Several patrolling disciples from the law enforcement team looked at the smoke column and gritted their teeth:

"Someone must have forgotten to turn off the flame after refining the elixir and refining the weapon, causing a fire!"

"Or maybe the fairy brewer accidentally lit the fairy brew!"

"These people who refine weapons, make elixirs, and make wine don't make people worry at all! We Talisman Masters have always adhered to our duties, but we are so miserable!"

"Heaven is unfair!"

Speaking of this, the Talisman masters of the law enforcement team looked at each other with sadness.

At this time, a foundation-building monk flew over and shouted: "Why are you still standing there! Follow me to put out the fire! If you delay the opportunity and cause the fire to spread, be careful of Senior Brother Yan punishing you!"

When they heard the words "Senior Brother Yan", they all shuddered and hurriedly followed the steps of the foundation-building cultivator, flying towards the source of the smoke in the east.

"This smoke seems to come from Donggeng District..." The foundation-building cultivator wondered, "The four people in Donggeng District have never caused trouble before, this is the first time."

...

Li Xiuchang was practicing in the quiet room.

He practiced the "Fire Burning Skill", and a piece of green spiritual wood in front of him kept flying out light green energy, which was sucked into the Dantian by Li Xiuchang's spiritual orifice.

Fortunately, even if he practiced the "Fire Burning Skill" into the "Charcoal Burning Skill", the external wood attribute spiritual power can still assist him in his practice.

It's just that the priority is reversed.

In the normal "Fire Burning Skill", the wood attribute spiritual power is the fuel, the firewood, and it is an auxiliary to promote the fire attribute magic power. The fire attribute magic power is the main body.

However, in the "Charcoal Burning Skill" practiced by Li Xiuchang, the wood attribute spiritual power is the main body, and the fire attribute becomes the auxiliary.

After the wood attribute spiritual power is calcined by the fire attribute spiritual power, the charcoal attribute magic power is generated.

Li Xiuchang's physique is more inclined to the fire attribute. The amount of fire attribute spiritual power he converted during cultivation is far greater than the wood attribute spiritual power, which leads to his slower cultivation speed.

After all, no matter how strong the fire is, there is not much wood, so naturally, it is impossible to burn a few pieces of charcoal.

Fortunately, the wood attribute spiritual power can be supplemented from the outside world to make up for the problem that Li Xiuchang himself cannot convert the wood attribute spiritual power.

This can greatly improve his cultivation speed.

Li Xiuchang was immersed in cultivation when he suddenly heard a noisy movement outside.

"Someone is coming?"

Li Xiuchang hurriedly stopped practicing, pushed the door and came to the courtyard. At a glance, he saw several people in law enforcement hall uniforms falling towards his courtyard in the air.
