Chapter 82 Baibao Tower
In the evening, all the shops were closed, and one by one the tribesmen returned to the small courtyard in Fangshi.
Lin Xingzhi brought everyone together.
Many tribesmen saw Lin Tianming for the first time and were very curious about this prosperous tribesman.
As a junior, Lin Tianming clasped his fists and saluted in person, which doubled the goodwill of the clan members.
After Lin Xingzhi's introduction, Lin Tianming also became familiar with these tribesmen.
Including Lin Xingzhi and Lin Tianming, there are a total of fourteen members of the Lin family in Fang City, with varying levels of cultivation.
Among the twelve people, Lin Xingyuan is at the ninth level of Qi training and is a first-level mid-level alchemist. He will be replaced by Lin Tianming and will soon return to the family. In this way, plus Lin Tianming’s brother Lin Xingzhi, he will be thirteen People.
Among the other tribesmen, one is on the eighth level of Qi Refining and manages the Baibao Tower. The other two tribesmen on the seventh level of Qi Refining are the shopkeepers of inns and restaurants. The rest are all below the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Twelve clan members manage three shops.
Three clan members are in charge of the core Baibao Building, which mainly collects and sells various spiritual objects, bringing a large amount of wealth to the family every year.
Inns and restaurants are slightly worse, with average profitability, but they are better than nothing.
In fact, the Lin family’s biggest source of income in Fangshi is not from the three major stores, but from store rentals and Fangshi’s income.
There are more than a hundred shops in the entire Luoyunfang City trading area. The Lin family only has more than ten, while the Jin family has more than thirty. The five major families occupy 80% of the shops, and more than a dozen Qi refining families occupy the remaining 20% below.
Although the Lin family has more than ten shops, there are really not that many tribesmen to use them, so they keep three better-located shops for their own use and rent out the rest.
This is not only the case for the Lin family, but also for the other four major families.
The main source of wealth is the income from the market. The rent from the stall area, the rent from the cave, the profits from the auction house, and the spiritual stones paid into the city are the source of wealth.
Fangshi is the cornucopia of the five major families, and the annual profits are extremely huge. That's why the five major families attach so much importance to it and fight openly and secretly for their interests.
After half an hour of chatting, Lin Tianming knew almost everything about Fangshi, and he became familiar with the clan members.
At the end of the night, the chat ended and everyone returned to their rooms to rest.
The next day, Lin Tianming and Lin Xingzhi came to Baibao Tower.
Lin Tianming also looked at it.
The entire Baibao Building has three floors, and the first floor is filled with some common things used by Qi Refining monks.
The second level also has some second-level items, but the quantity is not large, probably dozens of types, and the sales volume is not much. After all, in this kind of place, there are too few foundation-building monks.
The third floor is the temporary residence of the family monks, as well as rooms for entertaining distinguished guests.
Entering the Baibao Building, Lin Xingzhi took out the account book and consolidated it with Lin Xingshun, added some elixirs and talismans, and Lin Xingzhi left.
Lin Tianming and Lin Xingyuan worked together to refine all the elixirs received by Baibaolou into elixirs.
When Lin Tianming finished refining the first batch of elixir, Lin Xingyuan was completely stunned.
Before refining alchemy, Lin Xingyuan planned to stay for half a year, waiting until Lin Tianming's alchemy level was up to par before leaving.
Who would have thought that his alchemy level far surpassed his own, even surpassing Lin Shigong's.
Since Lin Tianming's level was so high, Lin Xingyuan didn't stop here. He said goodbye to everyone and returned directly to his family.
In Baibao Building, Lin Tianming and Lin Xingshun drank spiritual tea and discussed the business situation of Baibao Building.
Lin Xingshun took out the account book and introduced it.
"Currently, the monthly profit is about hundreds of spiritual stones, and on good days it can reach thousands. It is mainly based on the sales of spiritual weapons, supplemented by elixirs."
Hearing Lin Xingshun's introduction , Lin Tianming frowned.
"Uncle, is the business so bad?" "There is too much competition in the market. There are many elixirs in the Jin family's shop, and the spiritual weapons are not bad. The Sun family's Fu Rong business is extremely popular, making hundreds of profits every month. Shi is pretty good. As far as I know, the Wu family and the Luo family are worse than us, let alone the Qi Lian family."
Lin Xingshun said helplessly.
“That’s all, how many elixir materials can we purchase every month?”
“The acquisition of elixirs has never been a priority, so there are not many. Regardless of variety, it is about two hundred. Plant it! ”
"That's all, Uncle Clan, I will make a lot of elixirs later. You are buying elixirs at a high price during this period, even if they cost one or two spiritual stones!"
"This..."
Lin Xingshun seems a little confused and can’t make up his mind!
"Uncle, don't worry, I guarantee you will see the effect in less than two months."
At first, Lin Xingshun was hesitant about whether he should do what this talented junior said. Woolen cloth.
"That's all, that's all, since he dares, let him go!"
Lin Tianming said confidently, which reassured the hesitant Lin Xingshun.
"Okay, I'll tell you to go down and deliver the elixir materials to you immediately."
"Okay!"
After convincing Lin Xingshun, Lin Tianming He said goodbye and left, returning to the small courtyard to practice.
Half a month later, Lin Xingshun sent a batch of Lingyuan Dan and Guyuan Dan materials, totaling more than 40 copies.
Lin Tianming immediately started refining alchemy.
In just seven days, Lin Tianming sent more than 80 pills and kept 150 pills for himself.
After taking the elixir refined by Lin Tianming, Lin Xingshun looked at it. Lin Xingshun was also shocked.
“Did you refine this?”
"Yes, I suggest that Uncle Clan sell these elixirs at a 10% discount, quickly become famous, wait for a while before adjusting the price, and don't care about this loss!"
"Okay, just do as you say. . ”
Lin Xingshun was very excited and ordered immediately.
As several days passed, there was an endless stream of monks who came to buy elixirs. Relying on the excellent quality Lingyuan Dan, more than eighty elixirs were quickly sold out.
Bai Bao Lou’s business is getting more and more popular, and other unsalable spiritual objects have also been sold.
Two months passed in a flash.
Lin Tianming lived a very fulfilling life during this period, either refining elixirs or cultivating, and occasionally working as a clerk in a shop.
During this period, Baibaolou also purchased elixirs on a large scale. With Lin Tianming around, they quickly refined the elixirs and sold them through the store.
Relying on the high-quality elixirs, Baibaolou's business has increased significantly, and its daily turnover has more than tripled.
Lin Tianming also relied on the rewards of alchemy to accumulate thousands of spiritual stones.
Lin Xingshun, the shopkeeper of Baibaolou, was also very excited. Within two months, Baibaolou, which had only a mediocre business, quickly became the most popular store in the city, and he also received a large amount of dividends.
From then on, Lin Xingshun had no doubts about Lin Tianming's opinions and was very supportive.
In this way, Lin Tianming quickly brought up the business of Baibaolou.
In a room on the third floor of Baibao Building, Lin Tianming and Lin Xingzhi were drinking spiritual tea. The two were very happy and chatted happily.
