Let’s explore the rest of the area later!
Standing at the entrance of the pitch-dark mine, three forked roads appeared again.
Luo Chen did not hesitate, turning around and walking away.
The mine tunnels here are well-developed, extending deeply underground. It’s clear that they can’t be fully explored in a short time.
This is enough for today.
Calling back his pangolin puppet, Luo Chen relied on his memory and quickly returned to the stone house.
After embedding a stone in the opened hole, Luo Chen cast a Cleaning Technique on himself.
Now that he was fresh and clean, he pushed open the stone door.
“My profit share from last month?”
Luo Chen excitedly accepted the bag, in which there was a pile of spirit stones.
After counting them, there were 650 spirit stones.
The excited expression on Luo Chen’s face slightly faded.
“Did the profits decrease?”
Seeing his expression, Gu Caiyi curiously asked.
Luo Chen first nodded, then shook his head.
“It is a bit less, but not that much.”
Last month, the earnings from the Allure Pills, although he did not handle the specific sales, he as the pill refiner of course knew about the cost and output. In a month’s time, lighting the furnace twice a day both in the morning and afternoon, the Medium Grade Pill Tripod could process two sets of ingredients, while each of the Purple Cloud Bronze Furnaces could process one set.
Taking into account his proficiency in refining Allure Pills which later rose to grandmaster level, he finally obtained a thousand elixirs.
The quality of the pills varied, including lower, medium, and higher grades.
After Mi Junping’s pricing strategy, the profits differed.
But after everything, he should have received around 4000 spirit stones, and deducting the 600 for the cost of materials, the remaining would be profit.
Luo Chen’s profit share should be around 700.
But now, he was 50 short.
Gu Caiyi handed over a list and said, “This is a list from Hall Master Mi, and he specifically mentioned the expenses of the Pill Hall cultivator, three shop cultivators, and the elixir protection team.”
“This expenditure is deducted from the profits, it’s shared amongst everyone.” “Of course, relying solely on these profits is not enough to support those people’s wages, so the headquarters also provided a subsidy.” While listening to these words, he looked carefully at the list.
In the end, Luo Chen nodded slightly.
Actually, this was within his expectation.
Therefore, he didn’t feel annoyed.
At this moment, what he was considering was another calculation.
If he hadn’t joined the Broken Mountain Gang, approximately how many spirit stones could he have earned last month?
Without the three pill furnaces, without the Broken Mountain Gang providing materials, a bunch of fireworkers and medicine disciples assisting in refining pills, and even someone specially selling them at the end.
He could only light the furnace twice a day at most. No matter how quickly his proficiency improved, it would not skyrocket to grandmaster level.
Considering all these conditions one by one.
Finally, Luo Chen arrived at a figure, “Eight hundred!”
Yes, if he relied solely on himself, last month’s net earnings should have been around 800 lower grade spirit stones.
Comparing like this, it seemed like he was 150 spirit stones short by joining the Broken Mountain Gang.
However, the account isn’t calculated like this!
“In addition to the profit shares, I also have a fixed monthly salary of 400 Qi Nurturing Pills worth, although they were obtained through loopholes.” This extra income alone had already made up for his loss.
Even more, he profited!
“Large amounts of pill refinement, increased proficiency, thus gaining real alchemy experience, and achievement points.”
This also needed to be considered.
Furthermore, “Qingyuan Pill Explanation”, “Catalogue of Hundred Herbs”, and the incomplete Tongyou Pill formula, these things were worth at least several thousand spirit stones!
Most importantly, there was another point.
The golden brand of the Broken Mountain Gang, and the care of Foundation Establishment Cultivator Mi Shuhua.
This was a value that spirit stones couldn’t measure, allowing him to avoid other cultivators’ coveting while his realm was still weak.
For instance, the trouble caused by Gao Tingyuan was personally resolved by Mi Shuhua himself.
After thinking for a while, Luo Chen couldn’t help but show a satisfied smile.
“Indeed, my decision back then was right.”
“Although it seemed that being a tool person wasn’t free, the benefits gamed, in the long run, were definitely profitable.”
“Moreover, didn’t my monthly treatment just increase again?”
Luo Chen picked up another item from the bag.
It was a wooden box. When he opened it.
Inside, neatly arranged, were twelve slender incenses.
“Calming incense!”
Gu Caiyi was incredibly surprised.
Mi Shuhua moved really quickly, he actually really sent Luo Chen this thing.
After closing the box, Luo Chen nodded in satisfaction.
This was a truly valuable item that he had personally experienced.
A box of Calming incense was worth 120 spirit stones, a beneficial tool for lower order cultivators’ cultivation!
With this incense, his cultivation speed could increase greatly once more.
Because the incense allows lower order cultivators to operate their Natal Qi Technique four to five more times daily without causing weariness or pain to their divine soul.
Of course, the body also needs a large amount of nutrient supplement, otherwise, even if the divine soul can keep up, the body can’t.
When he first received the Calming incense, Luo Chen had to divide a stick of incense to use over two or three days.
That’s because back then, he couldn’t keep up with the nutrient part.
But now, we’re rich!
Receiving the profit share and adding it to the previous savings, he broke the thousand mark for the first time based on his own efforts.
Thirteen hundred!
This was his actual wealth now without considering various external factors.
Moreover, to supplement the nutrition?
He also had some solutions for that now.
Packing up the Calming incense, Luo Chen hurriedly left with Gu Caiyi.
“Finished work, finished work!”
Gu Caiyi was a little confused, “Isn’t alchemy furnace supposed to be started in the afternoon?”
“Why the rush? Moreover, the Jade Marrow Pill that was refined today is enough to make that old Mi happy for a few days..”
