Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

As for the first-level high-grade puppet, it takes even longer, basically starting from ten days and a half.

Normally, he has to practice, make talismans, accompany his wife and concubines, and make babies. Lu Changsheng clearly knows that he does not have so much time and energy to make puppets in batches.

Moreover, the cost of materials required to make the puppets is high.

Lu Changsheng made a preliminary estimate.

An ordinary first-level low-grade puppet requires twenty or thirty spiritual stones in terms of material cost alone.

Although he didn't know the specific price of a low-grade puppet.

But he also roughly knows that the price of a low-grade puppet will not exceed one hundred spirit stones.

In other words, if you make a puppet and work for three or four days, you will only make three or four times the profit in the end.

Compared to the talisman, this is simply embarrassing!

"No wonder there is a chain of contempt among craftsmen. Formation, alchemy, weapon refining, and talismans are the four mainstream arts that look down on other crafts."

"Puppetry is pretty good among the various arts of cultivating immortals. But compared to the relatively easy and profitable craft of making talismans, the gap is immediately clear."

"What's more, among the four mainstream arts of cultivating immortals, talisman still ranks at the bottom."

Lu Changsheng shook his head and sighed.

I suddenly felt that this second-level puppet skill was a bit useless for my current situation.

First of all, there is no way to make money from this craft.

Making money by making puppets is easier and faster than making money by making talismans.

Then the time and material costs of manufacturing are too high.

The puppet sea tactics he originally imagined were instantly abandoned.

He can't afford to play with even a first-level low-grade puppet.

As for his desire to create a second-level puppet, there is no need to think about it.

It’s not that there’s no way to build it, it’s just that there’s no money.

Lu Changsheng is not very clear about the material cost of a second-level puppet.

But he initially estimated that it would be at least several thousand spiritual stones.

"It's so difficult!"

Lu Changsheng sighed deeply.

It feels like money is needed everywhere on this spiritual journey.

He now needs money to save the miserable female cultivator living in Baiyu Tower.

You also need money to buy a first-level talisman pen, second-level talisman-making materials, and draw second-level talisman.

I don’t have enough money, I need money very much, how can I still have money to buy materials and make second-level puppets.

"Alas, one person is limited after all."

"It would be too difficult if I had to do everything by myself."

"There is simply not enough time and energy. No wonder many craftsmen choose to join one force."

Lu Changsheng shook his head and sighed.

I also understand why many people choose to join one force.

Because joining a force brings so many conveniences.

Just like when I was in the Lu family, I also enjoyed a lot of family conveniences.

But the problem is that neither the second-level talisman on his body nor the current second-level puppet can be displayed.

There is no way to quickly convert it into resources.

And now that he is not strong enough, he does not dare to reveal his second-level skills.

Otherwise, what if I am reduced to a tool maker who makes spells for eight hours a day.

"Hey, wait a minute, although the art of puppetry is difficult, its main difficulty lies in its complexity."

"Not only do you have to be able to polish materials, create parts yourself, refine parts, and assemble them, you also have to inscribe spiritual pattern formations on the puppets, etc."

"It is naturally difficult for one person to master all of these, but these steps can be completely divided and let different people do it."

Lu Changsheng digested the puppet knowledge in his mind.

Suddenly, I felt that this puppet manufacturing process was a bit similar to the assembly factory where I worked on the assembly line screwing screws in my previous life, and I couldn't help but have an idea.

"If a person only needs to master one of them, wouldn't it be simple?"

"I will find a group of apprentices with some talent and teach them the parts, parts, and assembly of the puppet to different people."

"Then engrave the core spirit pattern formation of the puppet and teach it to a trustworthy person. Wouldn't this enable the puppet to be streamlined?"

"As long as the puppets are streamlined and the volume is increased, wouldn't it be easier to make money?"

"After all, when it comes to making talismans, even if the profit is high, only one person can do it, so it can't compare to the products of the assembly line."

Lu Changsheng thought to himself.

The more Lu Changsheng thought about this idea, the more feasible it became.

For things like making talismans, you can only draw them yourself.

But with second-level puppet skills, as a second-level puppet master, he found that puppets can be divided into tasks.

The difficulty in the craft of puppetry lies in its complexity.

Not only do you have to create and assemble the parts for refining the puppet, but you also have to inscribe the spiritual pattern formation on the puppet.

You even need to understand mechanics, human mechanics, physics, mechanical structure, and a lot more.

But if you divide these things, industrialize them, and let different people do it, the threshold will be lowered immediately.

There is every hope that it will become an assembly line industry.

"If I can think of this kind of thing, others should be able to think of it too, right?"

"Forget it, this is a bit far away for me now anyway. I'll consider it later when I have the strength."

Lu Changsheng shook his head and suppressed the thoughts he had just had.

If he wants to build a puppet manufacturing industry, he must have a certain level of strength before he can start implementing it.

Now that I have no money or strength, I still rely on making talismans to make money and give birth to children.

It looked like the sky was getting dark outside. It was almost evening, so Lu Changsheng walked out of the Lingfu Shop.

Get ready to buy some materials for making puppets.

The cost of this thing is high, but since I have the technology, I have to use my hands to build two toys.

If it doesn't work, it can be used as a toy for children when the time comes.

Lu Changsheng did not go to the casual cultivator market to buy materials.

This round trip, before I finish shopping, it will be dark.

Half an hour later.

Lu Changsheng came to Qingyun Chamber of Commerce.

This is a store opened by the Qingyun Sect itself. It has seven floors and is very luxurious.

There are elixirs, magic weapons, exercises, heavenly materials, earthly treasures, etc. for sale, and everything is guaranteed.

Lu Changsheng came to Qingyun Chamber of Commerce and purchased the materials to build a first-order low-grade puppet and a first-order mid-grade puppet.

I also bought some spiritual materials for practicing the Hundred Refining Treasure Body Technique.

Although the Hundred Refining Treasure Body Technique has the Black Dragon Magic Pearl, he has also made rapid progress in his own cultivation.

But Lu Changsheng would also devote half an hour every day to practicing the Hundred Refining Treasure Body Art.

In the end, Lu Changsheng bought everything he wanted, spending two hundred and thirty-six spirit stones.

This made his already poor family even worse.

The day to go to Baiyulou has to be postponed again.

After leaving the Qingyun Chamber of Commerce, Lu Changsheng passed by a 'Qianji Pavilion' that sold puppets.

Went in and asked about the price of the puppet.

The shopkeeper told him that different puppets have different functions, and there are price differences even if they are of the same grade.

Then I told him the approximate price of the puppet.

The price of a first-level low-grade puppet is about seventy or eighty spirit stones.

The price of a first-level mid-grade puppet is about three hundred spirit stones.

The price of a first-level high-grade puppet is about one thousand spirit stones.

The price of a top-grade first-class puppet is about three thousand spirit stones.

After hearing the price, Lu Changsheng said goodbye and left.
