Zheng Ye cupped his hands and said, "Before the expansion of the Lingjiu Workshop, there were 74 qualified winemaking craftsmen. After the expansion, an additional 327 people were added. Now our Lingjiu Workshop has a total of 401 qualified winemaking craftsmen."
people."
"What about the production of spiritual wine?"
"A batch of Yuxiang Liquor will be brewed in March. If the Ling Liquor Workshop is fully brewing, it can probably brew 20,000 jars."
Hearing this, Guang Yuanzi silently made some calculations.
He knew that the jar of wine Zheng Ye mentioned was referring to a jar containing ten kilograms.
The output is 200,000 jins in three months, and the annual output is 800,000 jins.
To be honest, this output is not as good as that of any small winery in the previous life.
But this is spiritual wine, which is different from ordinary wine. It takes more time and manpower to brew than ordinary wine.
Most importantly, this world does not have the various mechanical equipment used to brew wine in the previous life.
The production efficiency of the two is naturally incomparable.
800,000 kilograms of spiritual wine, calculated based on the ex-factory price of one kilogram of spiritual wine and one spiritual stone, can only generate revenue of 800,000 spiritual stones a year. After deducting costs, the profit is almost one-twentieth of the spiritual rice business.
But you must know that this is just a spiritual wine workshop with 400 people.
The profit reached one-tenth of the profit of more than 70,000 paper puppet farmers cultivating spiritual fields.
In the future, we only need to expand the scale of the spiritual wine workshop to 8,000 people, and it will be comparable to the spiritual rice industry on Guangyuan Island.
The most important thing is that the spirit wine workshop occupies a small area.
This small workshop with 400 people covers an area of less than ten acres. Compared with the two million acres of Lingmi Industry, it is a world of difference.
The small footprint means that Guangyuan Island can accommodate more employed people in the future.
Guang Yuanzi recruited paper puppets to Guangyuan Island. He couldn't waste his manpower in vain, right?
In fact.
Guang Yuanzi has recruited more than 70,000 paper puppets this time, and he can no longer arrange their positions.
At present, the population of Guangyuan Island exceeds 150,000.
However, the two million acres of spiritual land only requires a maximum of 100,000 paper puppets. For the remaining 50,000 paper puppets, Su Ming has to arrange other places for them to go.
However, in addition to the spiritual rice industry on Guangyuan Island, there is only the newly emerging spiritual wine industry.
But brewing spiritual wine is not as simple as cultivating spiritual fields. These paper puppets also need to learn slowly from the brewing apprenticeship.
A workshop with 400 people has to both make wine and teach brewing apprentices, and there are tens of thousands of brewing apprentices, which is simply impossible.
It was impossible for Guang Yuanzi to throw all these people to these winemakers as apprentices.
These brewers cannot teach so many people, which will only cause a huge waste of manpower.
Thinking of this, Guang Yuanzi turned to look at Wu Laoshi and said: "The Lingjiu Workshop cannot accommodate so many brewing apprentices for the time being. The size of the first batch of brewing apprentices will be controlled at 4,000 people. One brewer will lead ten apprentices.
Way."
As he spoke, he added, "As for the remaining people, haven't my Immortal Palace not been built yet? Let them all build the Immortal Palace for me!"
Upon hearing this arrangement, Wu Laoshi's eyes lit up, and he immediately raised his hands and said: "I will obey the decree of Immortal Guangyuan!"
During this time, Wu Laoshi was also worried about the new residents of Guangyuan Island.
After all, Guangyuan Island has a limited area and cannot endlessly open up spiritual fields like in the past.
Two million acres of spiritual land is basically the limit of Guangyuan Island.
In addition, he could tell that the Immortal Guangyuan seemed to intend to reduce the size of the spiritual field and did not want to cultivate the spiritual field all the time.
In the final analysis, the profits of the Lingmi industry are still too low.
Su Ming used to be weak and unable to get involved in high-profit industries.
Now with the strength of Guangyuanzi Jindan in the middle stage, he has been able to gain a firm foothold in Yaoyuanshui Realm and even the entire Lanzhou, so he naturally wants to enter a highly profitable industry.
The spiritual wine industry is just the first, but it is by no means the last.
Even if Su Ming wants to develop a farming industry in Guangyuan Island in the future, he will only grow elixirs, not rice.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, three months have passed.
Guangyuan Island ushered in an unprecedented harvest season.
In the endless spiritual field, jade crystal rice exudes an intoxicating fragrance.
In the warehouse of the spiritual wine workshop, jars of spiritual wine are piled up like a mountain. The first batch of spiritual wine brewed after the expansion of the spiritual wine workshop has also been released.
New city, giant granary.
Each paper puppet pushed a small cart or pulled a cart, piling the harvested spiritual rice from their respective spiritual fields into the giant granary.
In front of the giant granary, there are desks.
In front of the desk, a literate paper man sat, weighing the spiritual rice with a ledger and recording the contributions of each paper man puppet.
Seeing this scene, Guang Yuanzi nodded slightly in his heart.
It can be seen that Wu Laoshi has perfected the contribution system very well.
Although the face of the paper puppet had no expression, Su Ming could still feel the warm and excited mood of the paper puppet present through the Immortal Palace of Creation.
This joy of harvest belonged only to him in the past.
But now, it belongs to every paper puppet present.
It is precisely because of this enthusiasm that the amount of spiritual rice harvested from the two million acres of spiritual fields this year has reached an extremely exaggerated figure.
New City Government.
Wu Laoshi's office.
"1.6 billion kilograms of spiritual rice?"
When Guang Yuanzi heard Wu Laoshi's report, his face was full of surprise.
Originally, he thought that this year's spiritual rice harvest would be good at 13.4 billion kilograms, but he didn't expect that the harvest would be 10% or 20% more than he imagined.
It can be seen that these paper puppets are all working hard to cultivate their spiritual fields in order to have human forms, and they are not lazy at all.
"Dear Immortal Guangyuan, this year's harvest of corn crystal rice has indeed exceeded 1.6 billion catties."
Wu Laoshi's honest and honest face couldn't help but feel a burst of joy.
He has now been completely liberated from the work of cultivating spiritual fields and has become the manager of the new city.
The mansion at the feet of Guang Yuanzi is Wu Laoshi's office.
In addition to him, there are about a hundred immortal officials in this mansion who assist him in handling official affairs.
That's right, as the first paper puppet to follow Su Ming, Wu Laoshi became an official.
He is also an immortal official responsible for managing the entire new city.
At present, the scale of the new city is still small, and there are not many literate scholars among the paper puppets.
Therefore, this new city government office has the flavor of a grass-roots team.
But in the future, as the scale of the paper puppets continues to expand, sooner or later this grass-stage team will become a fairy court that truly controls all the paper puppets under Su Ming.
After hearing Wu Laoshi's report, Guang Yuanzi couldn't help but show a touch of joy on his face.
Although he still has five million spiritual stones left in his hand.
But with the existence of the Wordless Heavenly Book, a large consumer of spiritual stones, no amount of spiritual stones would be enough for it to create.
Plus.
The contribution system that Su Ming established among the paper puppets under his command was not a free hand.
Although the art of transformation is just a Qi training method, it does not consume much good fortune.
But in the future, as the scale of the paper puppets expands and the level of the spell he inscribes on the paper puppets increases, this will consume a huge amount of good fortune.
Converted into spiritual stones, it would be a huge number.
But since you have decided to establish power, you cannot have only profits and no consumption.
There is no such power in the world yet.
Because no consumption often means that value cannot be generated, and there is no harvest and profit.
Guang Yuanzi nodded and said: "The scale of the spiritual rice industry has reached its peak. If there are no accidents in the future, we will no longer continue to expand the spiritual rice industry.
Now, I want you to do your best to increase the production of spiritual wine."
There is no need to worry about sales, only production, which undoubtedly relieves Wu Laoshi a great deal of pressure.
Regarding the issue of spiritual wine sales channels, Guang Yuanzi has already convinced the Yan family with his fists, so there is no big problem for the time being.
Just the spiritual wine market in Tianshu Daofang City is enough to consume the spiritual wine workshops in Xincheng for a long time.
After discussing the issue of spiritual rice and spiritual wine.
Wu Laoshi smiled, picked up a huge roll of drawings from the bookshelf, and then spread the roll of drawings on the ground.
Guang Yuanzi followed Wu Laoshi's movements and looked over.
I saw a fairy palace with numerous palaces appearing in this scroll of drawings.
"Great Immortal of Guangyuan,"
Wu Laoshi bowed his hand to Guang Yuanzi respectfully, "Look, this is the drawing of the Immortal Palace designed by the craftsmen responsible for building the Immortal Palace."
Guang Yuanzi glanced at the renderings.
This fairy palace is even more majestic in design than the new city.
In order to please the Great Immortal Guangyuan and to prevent the manpower of the paper puppets from being wasted, Wu Laoshi racked his brains to build this immortal palace this time.
Various craftsmen on Guangyuan Island all work together.
In order to build this fairy palace, several workshops were expanded in the new city.
There are quarrying workshops, brick-burning workshops, masonry workshops, etc.
These workshops were all expanded to provide various building materials for the construction of the fairy palace.
In order to build the new city, these workshops were already built, but the scale was not too large.
Now in order to build a fairy palace for Guangyuan Immortal, these paper puppets are all very enthusiastic.
Each and every one of them wanted to use all their strength.
Compared with brewing spiritual wine, apart from work such as design, the construction industry is more physical work.
Even a paper puppet who was born as a farmer quickly grew into a qualified farmer builder under the training of various construction craftsmen.
Coupled with the construction of the new city, a large number of qualified construction workers have been trained.
Therefore, the newly imported more than 70,000 paper puppets, under the leadership of these mature construction workers, built this fairy palace in full swing.
The problem of manpower waste that Wu Laoshi was worried about has also been fundamentally solved.
Mr. Wu has been a manager in Guangyuan Island for several years. He knows very well that once the paper puppets are left idle, trouble will arise.
Now that the construction plan of the Immortal Palace has made his worries disappear.
And considering the scale of this fairy palace, it may not be completed in a year and a half.
When Guang Yuanzi saw the palace style in the renderings, he couldn't help but feel excited.
He didn't expect that his dojo would be built for him by paper puppets in the end.
It's a pity that his true self cannot enjoy this majestic dojo.
Seeing the joy on Guang Yuanzi's face, Wu Laoshi struck a chord while the iron was hot: "Great Immortal Guangyuan, what do you think would be a good name for this immortal palace?"
Hearing this, Guang Yuanzi raised his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "Let's call it Lingxiao Palace."
"Lingxiao Palace"
Wu Laoshi didn't know the meaning of Lingxiao Palace, but he felt that the name was much more powerful than Guangyuan Island and Xincheng.
Leave the Xincheng government office.
Guang Yuanzi went straight to the giant granary in the south of the new city.
After harvesting for more than ten days a year, all the spiritual rice from Guangyuan Island has been stored in this giant granary.
The giant granary storing 1.6 billion kilograms of spiritual rice was a big project even in the previous life.
The original construction of the new city was also built for this granary, and the spirit wine workshop was only built incidentally.
Compared with the spirit wine workshop, the area of this giant granary is much larger.
Covering an area of two hundred acres, this giant granary becomes the largest building in the new city.
Now, the granary covering an area of 200 acres is almost filled with mountains of spiritual rice.
These spiritual rice are the annual harvest of two million acres of spiritual fields in Guangyuan Island.
Looking at the granary in front of him, Guang Yuanzi flew over the granary, waved his sleeves, and shouted: "Get it!"
next moment.
All the spiritual rice in the granary disappeared and was taken away by Guang Yuanzi's magical power.
below.
When the paper puppets who were responsible for guarding the granary saw this miraculous scene, they all knelt down in horror and knelt down in worship.
Faced with such inhuman power, even if the paper puppet has strength comparable to that of a monk in the early stages of Qi training, he will still feel as if he is a god.
Take away all the spiritual rice.
Guang Yuanzi escaped from the light and disappeared over the giant granary.
After deducting the negligible consumption of the spirit wine workshop in brewing spirit wine, 1.6 billion kilograms of spirit rice, according to the market price given by Tianshu Island Spirit Rice Company, is worth at least 22.4 million spirit stones.
With so much spiritual rice, if Su Ming were to sell it, he would probably break his legs.
The last time he sold a billion kilograms of spiritual rice, it took him more than half a month to process all the spiritual rice.
If Su Ming were to sell spiritual rice this time, he would have to run away for at least a month.
However, with Guang Yuanzi here, Su Ming will not interfere in the sales of Lingmi in the future.
Although letting Guang Yuanzi sell the spiritual rice to the Xianxia Sect through his hands, he can use his status as a first-class disciple to earn a lot of contributions to the sect.
But this risks exposing his relationship with Guang Yuanzi.
Guang Yuanzi was originally the strongest trump card created by Su Ming, and he now had no shortage of training resources. It was impossible for him to expose his relationship with Guang Yuanzi for the sake of contributing to these sects.
Furthermore, Guang Yuanzi also wanted to use this sale of spiritual rice to meet another Yuanying monk on Tianshu Island.
Less than half an hour.
Guang Yuanzi's escaping light fell in front of Lingmisi Hall.
Every time when the Lingmi harvest comes, the Lingmis Hall becomes particularly lively.
This year is no exception.
But Guang Yuanzi's escaping light still made the entire Lingmis Hall fall silent.
Generally speaking, the spiritual rice transactions in the Lingmis Hall are carried out by foundation-building monks.
It is rare to see a Jindan monk showing up in person.
But now, a golden elixir monk is here in person, how can Lingmis not entertain him warmly?
At this moment, a hearty voice sounded.
"Fellow Taoist Guangyuan's visit to our Lingmisi really makes our Lingmisi peacock shine."
Say it.
A ray of light flew out from the depths of Lingmis Cave.
