Chapter 87: Family’s Revenue (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
A month later.
Chen Daoxuan returned to Shuanghu Island with a cargo ship loaded with spiritual rice.
When he saw Thirteenth Uncle’s expectant face, he cupped his hands at Chen Xianhe and smiled. “”Thirteenth Uncle, Dao Xuan didn’t fail the mission! From now on, the wandering cultivator market will belong to my Chen family.”
Hearing this, she saw Chen Daoxuan’s young but exhausted face.
Chen Xianhe had mixed feelings.
He opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything for a long time.
After a long time.
He patted Chen Daoxuan’s shoulder and sighed, “”Child, you’ve worked hard!”
Chen Daoxuan grinned and shook his head. “Compared to Thirteenth Uncle supporting the family alone for so many years, what Daoxuan did today is nothing.”
Hearing this, Chen Xianhe patted his shoulder again and said nothing.
Shuanghu Island’s spirit vein.
Chen Daoxuan’s residence.
The cultivators of the Chen Clan who were above the Qi Refinement Stage sat in the courtyard where Chen Daoxuan usually cultivated.
However, according to Chen Daoxuan’s judgment.
Among these cultivators.
Other than him and Chen Xianhe, everyone else was underage.
Even the oldest, Chen Daochuan, was not even twelve years old.
Not to mention that the youngest cultivator was only six years old.
Seeing this scene.
Chen Daoxuan thought for a moment and said,” Chen Daichuan, Chen Daolan, and Chen Daosan, stay behind. The rest of you can go back and cultivate.”
As he spoke, he waved at everyone.
Hearing this.
The young Chen Clan cultivators cheered and ran away.
Chen Daochu’s eyes were filled with envy as he watched the crowd fly away.
“What? You want to go back too?” Chen Daoxuan glanced at him.
ii
No, no!”
Chen Daochu shook his head and sat up straight.
Seeing him like this, Chen Daoxuan pursed his lips.
Chen Xianhe smiled and said,” Alright, don’t blame your young clan leader for being harsh. You guys are a little older, so you should know that there are very few cultivators in our Chen clan.
You have to take the initiative to shoulder the heavy responsibility of the family, not just play around all day.”
He reprimanded her neither lightly nor heavily.
” Yes.” Chen Daochu and the others nodded.” We will remember the teachings of the Clan Leader and Young Clan Leader.”
Seeing that everyone was focused, Chen Daoxuan cleared his throat and said, “”Today’s meeting can be considered the first family meeting in the past fifty years that has been held by the Chen Clan.
Speaking of which, it can be considered a historic moment for our Chen family.”
Hearing this, Chen Daochu and the others didn’t have a deep impression of it, but Chen Xianhe’s eyes couldn’t help but redden.
Back then.
He and his clan brothers gathered together like this to hold a clan meeting about the future development of the Chen family.
Unfortunately, everything was like a fleeting cloud, and it was no longer the same as before.
“There are only two issues to be discussed in today’s family meeting. The family’s income and expenditure and the family’s development in the next year.”
Chen Daoxuan paused.” Now, let’s talk about our family’s income from the magical equipment shop in Guang ‘an Prefecture over the past year.”
After saying that, Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Xianhe and found that he was actually distracted. He couldn’t help but remind him in a low voice,”Thirteenth Uncle, Thirteenth Uncle…”
“Ah!”
Chen Xianhe came back to his senses. His weathered face was slightly embarrassed as he said,” I’m fine. Mm, I’ll just talk about the Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword shop’s income for the past year.
In the past year.
The Rainbow Sonar Flying Sword Shop sold a total of 2050 low-grade level one flying swords, earning 102500 spirit stones. After deducting taxes, the total income is 92250 spirit stones.”
Beside him, Chen Daoxuan added,””Other than the business in Guang ‘an Prefecture, the business between the family and the merfolk clan is the biggest source of income. In the past year, we have traded with the merfolk clan five times and sold a total of 1020 flying swords. The profit from the spirit ores and water spirit pearls is close to a million.
“However, these things are not easy to sell for the time being. They can only be piled up in the clan treasury.”
Spirit ores were easy to sell. Whether the Chen family sold them or used them to refine magic tools for sale, it was a good way to make money.
Only the Water Spirit Beads could not be sold in large quantities.
In Guang ‘an Prefecture, only the Zhou family had a large number of Water Spirit Pearls for sale.
Once the Chen family exposed that they had a large number of Water Spirit Pearls, it would be admitting that they had dealings with the merfolk clan.
Although the Qianyuan Sword Sect did not explicitly state that they could not trade with the alien races, if the matter of trading with the alien races was exposed, it would always be despicable and affect the reputation of the Chen family.
Moreover, he had to be careful.
The Water Spirit Pearl business was exclusive to the Zhou family. If the Chen family rashly interfered, it would be touching the Zhou family’s reverse scale.
If the Zhou family was enraged, even Zhou Mucheng would not be able to protect the Chen family.
Chen Daoxuan naturally understood this principle.
Therefore, for a long time in the future, Chen Daoxuan would not touch the business of the Water Spirit Pearl. He would only give it to the Chen family cultivators for their own use or give some gifts.
Unless the Chen family’s strength completely surpassed the Zhou family one day.
” This is the total income of the Chen Family this year.” Chen Daoxuan continued after a pause.
After talking about the income, they talked about the expenditure.
This year, our Chen family has a lot of income, but our expenses are not low either.
First of all, the biggest expenditure was the flying sword factory’s consumption. Among them, the flying sword factory’s expansion, the addition of the Melting Spirit Stoves, the consumption of spirit stones for the Melting Spirit Stoves themselves, and the largest expenditure, the consumption of spirit ores.
The total cost is about 114425 spirit stones.”
“Wow!
Hearing this number, even Chen Daochu and the others couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
Chen Xianhe twitched in pain.
In just a short year, the small flying sword factory had devoured more than one level one spirit meridian.
Moreover, this year’s consumption was calculated before the flying sword factory’s production capacity increased.
Starting from this year, the flying sword factory’s consumption would increase by five to six times.
In other words, the flying sword factory would not only consume 100,000 spirit stones next year, but 500,000 to 600,000 spirit stones.
He ignored everyone’s shocked expressions.
“Other than the flying sword factory, the second biggest expense of our Chen family is the consumption of our Chen cultivators for cultivation,” Chen Daoxuan continued.
He talked about the consumption of the Chen family’s disciples in cultivation.
Even Chen Daoxuan felt his heart ache.
Unlike the flying sword factory, although it ate a lot, it earned more.
As for nurturing the Chen family cultivators, there would be no return in the short term. Moreover, as the Chen family cultivators expanded in the future, this expenditure would increase exponentially.
“The Chen family currently has one Immortal cultivator and ten Dao cultivators.
Among them, the number of spirit stones consumed by the Immortal cultivators last year was…Zero.”
At this point, Chen Daoxuan’s eyes turned slightly red.
Although the family was now well-off, Chen Xianhe was still unwilling to spend Spiritual Stones on cultivation.
According to Chen Xianhe, he was already old and had no hope of reaching the Foundation Building realm. Even if he broke through to the later stage of the Qi Refinement realm, it would be meaningless and would not help the clan’s strength.
It was better to save the spirit stones and give them to cultivators of the Dao generation with more prospects.
After taking a deep breath and calming himself down, Chen Daoxuan continued,””On average, the cultivators of the Dao generation consume 3025 spirit stones per person, which is a total of 30250 spirit stones.
The most expensive part is the spiritual rice.”
That’s right, the cultivators of the Chen family’s Dao generation all chose to cultivate the body tempering technique, the Dragon Python Heaven-devouring Technique.
This was the decision Chen Daoxuan made after careful consideration.
Compared to spirit stones, what the Chen family lacked the most now was cultivators who could take charge of their own affairs. Chen Daoxuan naturally wanted to do everything he could to increase the strength of the cultivators in the family.
Cultivating a body-tempering technique was a good choice.
This was because cultivating a body-tempering technique could increase the efficiency of refining spiritual qi, although the increase was not obvious and was far from being as fast as medicinal pills.
However, even if it increased by 10%, it would still be a significant improvement over time.
For this, even if he had to spend more spirit stones, Chen Daoxuan would not hesitate.
“The remaining expenses include the 30,000 spirit stones I spent on the spiritual rice and the 800 spirit stones I spent on the spiritual rice transport ship…
Last year, our Chen family’s total expenditure reached 169479 spirit stones, and the remaining spirit stones are about 920,000. Of course, most of these spirit stones are stored in the clan warehouse with spirit ores and water spirit pearls.
This is all the income and expenditure of my Chen family last year..”
