This large mansion occupies an area of 25 mu, with a total of 28 rooms. In the front yard, there is a lush bamboo forest, which offers a beautiful view. In front of that is a shop, covering an area of approximately 300 square meters. The location of the shop is not particularly good, and the foot traffic can only be considered average.

However, as the saying goes, good wine needs no bush.

With Lu Changfeng and his wife's proficiency in Fu Dao and Puppet Dao, there is no need for them to purchase a shop in a bustling area.

Moreover, it is very peaceful here, which Lu Changfeng greatly enjoys.

After Bai Yuerou inspected the courtyard, she said, "The house is really too big, husband. Shall we buy some servants?"

Lu Changfeng smiled and replied, "You have quickly assumed the role of a wealthy lady. You're right, it does feel a bit empty for just the two of us in such a big yard."

Dog Emperor exclaimed loudly, "Buy me a few dog demons. I want to train them into demon soldiers."

Lu Changfeng responded, "Let's wait for a bit. We don't have any spirit stones at home. We'll go buy them when the grocery store opens and we start making money."

"Then let's wait for a bit," Bai Yuerou nodded.

The two of them returned to their respective cultivation rooms.

Lu Changfeng took out some low-grade talisman materials from his storage bag and began drawing talismans.

Bai Yuerou, on the other hand, was making low-grade combat puppets.

As for why they were making low-grade talismans and low-grade combat puppets first, it was because their small shop had just opened, and low-grade items were easier to sell.

Twenty days later.

Lu Changfeng looked at the ten thousand low-grade talismans on the table. Drawing talismans continuously for twenty days had left him somewhat exhausted.

"With an eighty percent success rate, I, who am about to advance to First Grade Rank Nine Talisman Master, find it too easy to draw these low-grade talismans."

Lu Changfeng put the ten thousand low-grade talismans on the table into his storage bag, then sat cross-legged on a cushion to restore his spiritual consciousness before heading towards Bai Yuerou's room.

Bai Yuerou had also made a hundred and fifty low-grade combat puppets.

Lu Changfeng said, "Madam, these low-grade combat puppets are enough for us to sell for a long time. There's no need to make any more."

"Alright," Bai Yuerou stopped her hands.

The two of them went to the shop and used cleaning magic to tidy it up.

Then they placed the talismans and puppets on the counter.

Looking at the shop, it seemed like something was still missing.

Lu Changfeng looked up and realized that he hadn't purchased a signboard.

"Wife, let's name our grocery store Five Elements General Store. What do you think?"

"Husband, it's up to you."

"Alright, I'll go and have a signboard custom-made right away."

Lu Changfeng left the Five Elements General Store and used three First Grade Rank One talismans to custom-make a signboard.

Half an incense stick's time later.

The signboard was completed.

Lu Changfeng put it into his storage bag and returned to the Five Elements General Store, hanging it up.

With the opening of the new store, it was inevitable that it would be a bit empty.

The two of them waited anxiously for half a day but didn't receive a single customer.

In order to recover their investment as soon as possible, Lu Changfeng wrote a sentence at the entrance of the store.

[New store opening, all talismans and combat puppets at Five Elements General Store are discounted by 20%, until sold out.]

As soon as this sentence was written, the passersby on the street brightened their eyes and walked into the Five Elements General Store with big strides.

"Is it really a 20% discount?"

"Yes, this guest."

Bai Yuerou walked gracefully.

Looking at Bai Yuerou's stunning and extraordinary beauty.

The cultivators present were all enchanted.

"This woman is really beautiful."

"Not only is she beautiful, but her temperament is also outstanding, not inferior to Ye Qingxue, the fourth generation chief disciple of Azure Cloud Sect."

"If only she could be my Dao companion."

"You're dreaming. This couple has the ability to run a grocery store, naturally they are both puppet masters and talisman masters. Their status is high in Azure Cloud Sect's Baiyi Peak, not inferior to the inner disciples of Azure Cloud Sect."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changfeng's eyes showed a hint of interest.

Azure Cloud Sect's Baiyi Peak.

He had also heard of it. Those who joined Baiyi Peak were all cultivators with a profession, and the identities of talisman masters and puppet masters were quite high, second only to alchemists.

If he could become a disciple of Baiyi Peak, even the troublemakers wouldn't dare to cause trouble in the store, saving some trouble.

"Boss, I want twenty fireball talismans."

"I want three First Grade Rank Two battle puppets."

"I want fifty fireball talismans and ten swift talismans."

----------------------

In a short while, the Five Elements General Store was crowded with cultivators.

After all, selling at a 20% discount was equivalent to the price some shops would buy them at, allowing buyers to save a lot of spirit stones.

And talismans and battle puppets were necessities for cultivators.

Unless someone was foolish and had a lot of money, they wouldn't refrain from buying.

Lu Changfeng and Bai Yuerou were busy until eleven o'clock at night before closing the store.

All the goods in the shop were sold out.

Back in the courtyard.

The two of them counted the spirit stones they had earned today.

A total of about one million low-grade spirit stones.

After deducting the cost of thirty thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Lu Changfeng and his wife earned around nine hundred and seventy thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Although Bai Yuerou's face was tired, she couldn't help but smile. "I didn't expect us to earn so many spirit stones on the first day! But doing business is really tiring."

Lu Changfeng smiled and said, "We offered a 20% discount, so those cultivators were eager to buy. If we restore the original price tomorrow, the customer flow won't be as high. Besides, making puppets and drawing talismans also takes time. We can't bury ourselves in drawing talismans and making puppets every day without cultivating!"

"Husband, you're right. Cultivation is the most important thing. Making puppets and drawing talismans are just secondary."

"We're tired today. Let's rest early! Tomorrow, let's go to the market and buy some servants and a cultivator who is skilled in business management. After all, doing business is really time-consuming. We just need to provide the goods, and let the professionals take care of the business!"

"Okay."

The next day, in the early morning, Lu Changfeng and Bai Yuerou went to the slave market in the market.

They bought six clever and beautiful mortal girls.

Lu Changfeng then went to select a cultivator skilled in business management.

"Elder, please buy me! I don't want any spirit stones. I'm willing to do any dirty or hard work, as long as you provide me with a meal."

On the bustling street, a disheveled, ragged, thin and handsome young man with a lame leg knelt on the ground, pleading with a young cultivator.

"Get lost! Your dantian is shattered, your meridians are severed, and you're still a cripple. Why should I buy you? Besides wasting my food, what use do you have?"

The young cultivator scolded and kicked him several meters away.

Blood flowed from the corner of the lame young man's mouth. Enduring the pain, he slowly crawled over to beg other passersby on the road, but they all rejected him with disdain.
