Chapter 285: Daily Account
Qingzhu Peak.
In the courtyard of the No. 109 special training room.
The morning sun shines in generously, and it is another beautiful day. The brilliant sunshine is the same as always, and I don't know how many days it has been shining like this.
As soon as Wang Qiye was beaten by Meng Yulang, Zhu Ran couldn't wait any longer. He stepped forward and drew out a long knife.
Although some parts of his body were still numb, Wang Qiye shook his hands, and two of the four knives behind his back popped out and fell into his hands.
“What’s the matter? I just cut off one of your magic weapons yesterday, and you’re so proud today?” Wang Qiye weighed the two long swords in his hands and smiled softly at her.
"Hmph, I bought more than twenty new knives. If you can't use them all, I'll return them to you." Zhu Ran pointed her long knife sideways, glanced sideways, and returned to her usual young lady's demeanor.
The number of magic tools that were scrapped in her hands this month was slightly less than last month, but it was still in the teens, and she burned another 20 spirit stones without blinking an eye.
As the two of them practiced against each other more deeply every day, Wang Qiye had almost touched the bottom of the essence of the Seven Cities Village, but Zhu Ran's growth did not stop and continued to increase.
She looked at Wang Qiye with enjoyment in her eyes, as if she was admiring the final struggle of her prey. She couldn't wait to step on Wang Qiye and trample him hard.
Wang Qiye had no idea of her perverted and dirty thoughts, and thought she was full of fighting spirit. However, because she let him pay off his romantic debt, Wang Qiye didn't mind smiling at her.
"It's a pity that I won't be able to do this magic weapon business anymore. After paying off Duanmu Lan's debt, I just saved up more than 8,000 spirit stones, and this business has come to an end."
Zhu Ran laughed carefreely, and taking advantage of Wang Qiye's inability to move, he slashed at him diagonally with his knife and attacked first.
Wang Qiye did not say that she was despicable. Injuries were inevitable during a battle. At the moment, he could only raise his sword to defend himself, endure the painful period of muscle numbness, and then take the opportunity to counterattack.
"Jingle, clang, clang."
This short-haired young man and a neutral beauty are fighting again. They may have to fight for another morning.
"Let's go and continue practicing." Gao Youmo patted Zhu Dachang's shoulder and walked towards Pei Gaoyan.
At this time, Zhu Dachang looked at the fight between the two people in the field. He could only see that they were fighting very fiercely. He sacrificed himself for every move, but found that he could not take on even half of the moves.
Gao Youmo, who had already turned around, didn't notice that Zhu Dachang was sweating profusely on his forehead and his back was soaked with cold sweat. "Everyone came in from the outer door, why are you different?"
……
Ruyi had a worried look on her face. "Son-in-law, the money flow this month is a bit bleak."
"How many?"
"This month our income is only 6.8, and our expenditure is 6200 spiritual stones. All the magic tools you seized have been sold this month."
"There are 27.5 spirit stones and 435.7 contribution points left in the public account. Duanmu Lan still owes 95.56."
Wang Qiye nodded. "I didn't expect the talisman and array business to be so good."
This was a pleasant surprise. The combined income from talismans and formations this month was about 20,000 spirit stones. There were still a lot of second-level talismans and formation materials, so there was no need to buy anything else. Selling them would be pure profit.
Wang Qiye has figured it out now. The grocery store cannot be closed. In the past, the two young ladies could only generate 300-600 spirit stones of income per month. It turned out that they were too proud to attract customers.
Come to think of it, if you ask these two gifted ladies to go out and attract customers for their side jobs, they will definitely not be able to do it. Now they just have to wait for customers to come, and there are special receptionists to greet them. They only have to focus on producing the finished products. Naturally, their monthly income is incomparable.
But Ruyi no longer cares about this income. How can a person who earns hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones every month be content with only an income of 10,000 or 20,000? "Son-in-law, you are not in a hurry at all. Without the captured magic tools, you will be starving next month."
“Don’t worry too much. Didn’t the Second Madam sell a fourth-rank talisman this month? This is a good start.” Wang Qiye smiled and looked at the beauty on the left.
"You don't know that the shopkeeper Li next door laughed at you." Ruyi was conflicted, not knowing whether she should say it or not.
"What did he say? Tell me!"
Wang Qiye's face was obviously a little angry.
"He told you to go home and drink your milk quickly, so as not to embarrass yourself here."
"What? How dare he say that?"
Even though Wang Qiye had been someone else's grandson for more than 20 years, he could not swallow this humiliation.
He knew that Shopkeeper Li would not dare to say such harsh words, and that Ruyi must have exaggerated and said something nonsense.
He knew what was going on in Ruyi's mind. It was just that the turnover in the first three months was too high, and she no longer cared about the income of more than 2 yuan next month. He also understood that she really wanted to make her own business a success.
But Hu Mingyue can only draw a fourth-level talisman of divine travel now, and Lei Siyu can only use the fourth-level smoke formation.
Although I have learned the techniques of refining fifth-level pills, and have tried to use some of them in the daily "maintenance" of these fourth-level pills, it is still a long way from being successful. Before they are out of the furnace, it is hard to say how the eight furnaces of fourth-level pills I have refined are going.
"Did Manager Li really say that?" Lei Siyu was so angry that the teacup in her hand turned white.
"This is simply too much." My cousin slammed the table, as if she was going to go and deal with Manager Li the next morning.
Ruyi said timidly. "Son-in-law, what should we do?"
Wang Qiye rolled his eyes at her. She had caused this all by herself, and now that she couldn't get rid of it, she was afraid. "If it really doesn't work, let's close Yueyulou, renovate it for three months, change the sign, and then have a discount for another three months. We'll disgust Shopkeeper Li to death."
"Great idea, uncle,"
Everyone's eyes lit up and they nodded thoughtfully.
"I think there's no need to close it. We can go to Qinglian Peak to open another branch. Lingxi Valley is a large market town with three peaks." Hu Mingyue said lightly.
"Yeah, why didn't I think of that."
"That's a good idea. After we have a discount at this branch, we can ask that branch to offer a discount."
"Yes, with the reputation of our Yueyulou, if we open a branch, it will be very busy again."
All the young ladies began to talk at once.
"But do we have enough manpower?" Wang Qiye was a little surprised. He had never thought about opening a branch. Even if a branch earned 10,000 spirit stones a month, the three branches would still earn more than the current 20,000 per month.
"Don't worry, sir. After all, it's just the new store that's having a discount. Everything in the old store will remain the same. You two ladies just need to go to the new store, and Shihua and my cousin will be in charge of the old store. Although they are not proficient in the third-level talisman formation, I think all the business has gone to the new store. Even if there are a few orders, they can handle it."
Wang Qiye looked at his cousin in surprise. It seemed that she was not an ordinary person. Maybe she was even more accomplished than Hu Mingyue in the art of talismans. No wonder she had such a sharp and unbridled look on her face. She must have a strong background or a rich family background.
Yes, with Hu Mingyue’s intelligence, if it were an ordinary person, how could she bring it home?
"Ruyi, go to those two markets tomorrow and find out where the shops are. Also, look for any staff that are needed and hire a few people. Keep them in the old shops first, and when the new shops open, bring them over directly."
Ruyi responded happily. "Okay, son-in-law, I'll do it tomorrow morning."
"Well, once it's done, we'll put out the advertisements in advance to build momentum."
Wang Qiye suddenly thought of something. "Oh, by the way, we can't open the third branch too quickly. Let's wait until the discount of the second branch ends, and then open the third branch three months later."
Ruyi smiled sweetly. "I understand, sir. Is this what we call keeping the heat on?"
"Look what you can do." Wang Qiye then looked at her with an inexplicable look and scolded her.
Ruyi quickly lowered her head.
"Then I'll have to trouble the two ladies. Please continue to work hard for a few months." Wang Qiye held the two beauties beside him in his arms.
Lei Siyu finally smiled. "You know how hard we work, but you don't show your appreciation through actions, except for being mean."
Wang Qiye looked at her in confusion. "Didn't each of them spend 20 spirit stones a few months ago to forge two fourth-tier magic tools?"
Hu Mingyue also complained. "What about these three months? Look, my cousin is so busy that she looks exhausted."
Hu Qingyue hurriedly nodded vigorously.
Wang Qiye smiled mysteriously, thinking that they had too many spiritual stones in their account and wanted to go shopping, and this time they finally caught the opportunity. But he was a single dog in his previous life. If he knew the ins and outs here, he would have said goodbye to being single long ago.
He could only look at Ruyi for help. "Ruyi, arrange for the son-in-law's expression tomorrow."
"Okay, son-in-law." Ruyi raised her head and the voice was drawn out.
Wang Qiye understood. "I'll also arrange for a token of appreciation for you guys."
"Thank you, son-in-law. You are the best." The four maids stood up together and bowed respectfully to Wang Qiye.
There was only a master and servant, looking somewhat lonely.
Lei Siyu looked at Duanmu Lan provocatively, so that she could distinguish the primary from the secondary.
Wang Qiye happened to see the smug smile frozen on his face. Only then did he remember that he had missed two people.
Glancing at the quiet woman and seeing her face becoming increasingly gloomy, Wang Qiye felt that he seemed to have done something wrong again this time.
But there was no way to remedy the situation now. He could only look away angrily, withdraw his hands from the two ladies' waists, and reach for the teacup on the square table to hide his panic.
