In addition, Gao Xingyu's mission also allowed many casual cultivators in the special service team to gain a relatively stable income.
Since he is only making entry-level talismans, Gao Xingyu does not have high requirements for talisman paper and talisman ink, which are common materials in the secular world.
But in order to reach the standard of being able to draw talismans, not only does the maker need to have certain skills, but it also needs to use vitality to complete it.
Refining jade tablets is much simpler, every monk can do it.
Monks in the Qi training stage can use spiritual fire to refine jade tablets, which is fast and good. But they will not take on such a task. Their eyesight is not shallow enough to earn such a small amount of money.
Most monks in the Qi-nourishing stage do not yet have the ability to ignite spiritual fire, let alone control the fire continuously. They can only cut the jade into standard-sized jade tablets, and then use their own energy to wash them over and over again until the jade tablets are completely washed.
Until it is transparent.
This kind of work is simple and boring, but it can train low-level monks' ability to use vitality. At the same time, because vitality is constantly consumed and restored, it is very helpful for them to improve their cultivation.
Disciples of sects or big families may not care about such tasks. But for casual cultivators, while training themselves, they can complete the task and earn some small money and the contribution of the special team. Why not do it?
Woolen cloth?
Gao Xingyu has purchased a lot of talismans, talismans and jade tablets. The quality of the raw materials for making these talismans is too low, and he can only make entry-level talismans.
He certainly won't be able to use so much himself, and most of the remaining raw materials will be transferred to the Qingxuan Sect's warehouse after the merger of the Qingxuan Secret Realm is completed.
Gao Xingyu has already discussed with Qiao Sanshi that he will leave part of the inheritance of talisman-making techniques in the Qingxuan Sect. These raw materials will be used by Qingxuan sect disciples to learn how to make talismans in the future.
In just two months, Gao Xingyu produced nearly 300 talismans and sold them for 50 million yuan through Guanyi Health Center. The cost he spent was only 10 million yuan at most, including the money he planned to leave to
That part of the Qingxuan sect.
Gao Xingyu had not originally planned to price these entry-level talismans so high, but Kun Yangzi and Zong Han from Baiyunguan advised him to set the price with reference to the sales prices of talismans in several major sects, so as not to ruin the market and cause people to gossip.
Several sects uniformly set the price of talismans extremely high, not just to make more money. On the one hand, it is difficult to train talisman makers and the cost is extremely high. On the other hand, they deliberately raise the threshold.
Just like Gao Xingyu took the initiative to increase the difficulty of purchasing storage talismans, Daomen did not want its own talisman makers to spend all day making these entry-level talismans.
Only entry-level talismans are suitable for ordinary people. More advanced talismans are not suitable for ordinary people.
However, the Taoist sect has a deep entanglement with the secular world, and there are many human relationships that cannot be avoided. Therefore, the only way to reduce the world's demand for these talismans is to increase the selling price.
Even some talismans are not sold directly. They are only sold together when pilgrims spend a lot of money to perform specific Zhaidun rituals.
Gao Xingyu thought about it. If the members of Guanyi Health Center had too much demand for talismans, he would have a big headache.
Therefore, he handed over the issue of pricing the talismans to Qiao Yong and Xiao Yaqi, who consulted the prices of talismans from several major gates and finally made the current pricing.
Not only is this price not low, it is actually one to two percent higher than the price of the same talisman sold by Daomen.
Talismans all have a time limit, including a use period and a storage period. The length of the period is determined by many factors such as the nature of the talisman, frequency of use, the material of the talisman ink and talisman paper (carrier), and the amount of vitality injected into it.
Long-lasting talismans that do not require active activation and work directly have a validity period equal to the storage period, which will naturally be shorter. Several entry-level talismans sold by Guanyi Health all belong to this type.
Moreover, these talismans are worn by ordinary people or placed in certain specific locations in the secular world for a long time. They cannot replenish vitality, so most of their validity periods are about one year. The higher the quality of the jade tokens, the longer their validity period will be, but this is not the case.
It will take more than three years.
The sales of talismans have not only become the largest source of income for Guanyi Health Center so far, but more importantly, unlike the one-time sale of Qingxuan Aged Wine, this is a long-term project that can be carried out over time.
However, Gao Xingyu did not plan to continue doing this forever. He used a large number of entry-level talismans to train his soul power, which would only last for one or two years at most.
When his control over the power of the soul reaches a certain level, he will definitely need to change his training methods.
The Talisman Business Guanyi Health Center will continue to do business, but the maker will become a disciple of the Qingxuan Sect, maybe Xiao Yaqi, maybe someone else.
All in all, even if Gao Xingyu continues to make talismans in the future, he will not produce such high-quality talismans in large quantities.
Gao Xingyu didn't know that the talismans he made were not only famous among the special service team, but also had a good reputation among the members of Guanyi Health Center.
There were even people who came to ask Gao Xingyu to make talismans for them with fine mutton-fat jade and jade from Gao Bing. As a result, these people were intercepted by Xiao Yaqi without even seeing Gao Xingyu.
Xiao Yaqi knows Gao Xingyu's mentality. If Gao Xingyu thinks it is necessary to make some talismans, he will make them easily. But when outsiders use money and materials to hire Gao Xingyu, do they regard Gao Xingyu as a craftsman?
Gao Xingyu has consciously cultivated the people at Guanyi Health Center. He took out "Xinglin Baolu" for Xiao Yaqi and He Lili to study. He Lili wanted to study how to use Linggu with other ingredients to cook new dishes, and Gao Xingyu also fully supported it.
.
In addition, when he makes talismans now, he will ask people who are free to help him. Although he has not officially taught the talisman making skills, he can take this opportunity to familiarize them with the actual process of making talismans.
Gao Xingyu feels that among these people at the moment, Xiao Yaqi may have the most potential to make talismans. She has a calm mind and is very meticulous in her work.
Next is Zong Yueru. Although she looks like a tomboy, she practices martial arts and boxing all day long and practices diligently.
But maybe because she was born as a casual cultivator, she is most interested in making talismans. Every time she watches, she is no less serious than Xiao Yaqi.
Both of their current cultivation levels are at the seventh level of the Qi-nourishing stage, which is not enough to formally learn how to make talismans.
Gao Xingyu planned to wait until they entered the eighth level of the Qi-nourishing stage and their soul power and vitality became stronger before he began to formally teach the techniques of making talismans.
Making talismans has formed a complete craft system, which contains countless theories and techniques. Therefore, it has also been divided into many schools and has various inheritances.
Talisman makers will not lose their self-esteem, they will improve through continuous learning and exchange with each other. It is difficult to distinguish between different schools.
