Chapter 710 Talisman
Hearing Shang Ji asked this question, Master Huang Yang couldn't help frowning, and subconsciously stroked the goatee on his chest.
After pondering for a moment, under Shang Ji's expectant gaze, he slowly said, "My lord, the speed of making this talisman is either fast or slow."
"how do I say this?"
"My lord, look here." As he spoke, Taoist Huang Yang stretched out his hand and pointed at hundreds of Taoists.
"My lord, all the talismans must be made by the Taoists themselves, and the success rate varies from person to person, but even if the poor Daoist does it himself, it is impossible to make the most basic talismans with 100% success. The cost of each talisman is not high. , the basic talismans only need high-quality cinnabar, yellow paper, wolf hair, etc. The advanced talismans vary according to the spells of the seal. In addition, due to the limitation of manpower and material resources, there is no possibility of large-scale production for the time being, so we will not do it for now. discuss.
Every time a basic talisman is made, the cost is only about five silver. However, making talismans is a very delicate process that requires a high degree of concentration throughout the whole process. Take these fast-track false Taoist priests as an example, they can only try two or three times a day. "
After a pause, Taoist Huang Yang continued: "Based on their level of talisman making, the success rate of making basic talismans is only a little over 10%. If the labor cost is not calculated, each talisman only needs about hardware on average, but calculating the labor cost It’s hard to say.”
"As for the speed of making talismans..." At this point, Taoist Huang Yang smiled wryly, and pointed to the hundreds of Taoists in front of him: "Even if they all leave the talismans, it will take only one month to reach the top of the sky." A thousand spells!"
"One thousand per month?" Shang Ji murmured, his brows furrowed unconsciously. Compared with the effect of the talisman, the production cost is not expensive, but isn't the speed a bit too slow?
It sounds like a lot, and you can save 8,000 copies in a year, but don't ignore the current size of the Pingzhou Army! With millions of troops, throwing in a thousand cards every month is not enough to make a sound.
Moreover, it is impossible for Shang Ji to keep these hundreds of Taoists to make talismans. He also wants to form his own field mage group.
"Xin Shui, is it easy to cultivate Taoists?"
After listening to Shang Ji's words, Taoist Huangyang didn't know what his plan was. He shook his head and said, "It's not simple, it's not simple at all. These hundreds of Taoists have been all the hard work of the poor for several months. To cultivate a Taoist priest, not only a large amount of financial support is needed, but also suitable seedlings. Taoist priests have high requirements for talents, and it’s not just a matter of just filling in individuals.”
"In addition, if it weren't for the lord's sparrow god to suppress the national destiny and the prosperity of Pingzhou's luck, it would be impossible for Pindao to rely on the Yanhuang Temple to grant large-scale talismans (in fact, it is to help people change jobs). Under normal circumstances, Yipindao at this time With his cultivation base, it took him a month to confer talismans on five people."
"What are the specific requirements for becoming a Taoist priest?"
Shang Ji asked persistently.
"Let's see, my lord, is there any difference in the number of the five divisions of wind, fire, water, earth and mine?"
You don't need to look at this businessman to know it.
At the first glance, he found that the number of Taoists from the five sects was not even, and it could even be said that the difference was very large.
Among them, the fire department has the largest number of people, about 200 people, accounting for half of the total number. Leibu is next, with about a hundred people. The two departments of Fengtu are roughly equal, with about 60 or 70 people in each department, while the water department has the least number, with only forty or fifty people in total.
"My lord must have discovered that the Thunder and Fire Division 2 has the largest number of people, and the Water Division has the fewest. This is not because the subordinates are partial to the Thunder and Fire Division 2, nor is it because they are too harsh on the Water Division. It is because there are the most Taoists who are suitable to become the Fire Division. On the contrary, There are the fewest Taoists who are suitable to become the Ministry of Water."
"Because of Suzaku?"
Shang Ji is not a fool, and he guessed the reason after a little thought. After Suzaku became the town of Shenzhou in Pingzhou, the power of the fire attribute skills and exercises in the entire Huaxia District has improved, and the improvement in Pingzhou has far exceeded that of other regions. This must have affected Huang Yang's cultivation of Taoists.
"My lord is wise, it is indeed because of the sparrow god. With the sparrow god, the number of Taoists in Pingzhou who are suitable to become fire-type Taoists far exceeds that of other departments. In fact, most of the flying phoenix fire cavalry under General Su Huan have become fire-type Taoists qualifications..."
"Really?" Shang Ji's eyes widened when he heard the words. Feifeng Huoqi suffered heavy losses after the Xianbei battle, but the total number of troops still exceeds 2,000. Although it is very difficult for Feifeng Huoqi to change jobs, no matter how high they are, they are not as high as Taoists. If these two thousand people can be transferred to fire-type Taoists, the overall combat power of Pingzhou will definitely be greatly improved.
"Cough, cough, master, be safe and don't be impatient!" Seeing Shang Ji's excited look, Huang Yang immediately understood that Shang Ji had misunderstood, and quickly explained: "Besides qualifications, there is another very important prerequisite for becoming a Taoist. That is, the intelligence value must exceed seventy points!"
"Seventy points in intelligence again???" Shang Ji couldn't help exclaiming. Judging from the tone, it seemed that he was very dissatisfied with this intelligence point of seventy points!
"again?"
Taoist Huang Yang was keenly aware of the key information, and couldn't help asking.
Shang Ji sighed, and told Taoist Huang Yang about the sacrifice of Sirius in the Temple of Sirius. On the contrary, Taoist Huang Yang smiled, and said indifferently: "My lord, you don't need to worry about it. Basically, all similar professions have this restriction. Pindao heard that there is a Master Payne in Pingzhou who is good at exorcising corpses. One of his subordinates Branch of the 'Dark Mage Group', I'm afraid they also have similar pre-requirements."
After listening to Huang Yang's explanation, Shang Ji felt a little relieved, but he was still very upset. Pingzhou was originally prosperous in martial arts and cultural decline. Even with the support of Yingchuan gentry and Pingzhou, the plight of insufficient grassroots officials has not been resolved. There is no hope of expanding the scale of the Sirius sacrifice and the five Taoist terror in a short time.
Moreover, the cultivation of scribes is inherently more difficult than that of warriors. The resources needed to cultivate a scribe with an intelligence of 70 points will be several times that of a warrior with 70 points of force.
This principle also applies to players!
A force value of 70 points is not particularly difficult for people who are still engaged in the industry of combat players, but an intelligence value of 70 points is quite pitiful. Compared with the immediate increase in force value, the effect of increasing intelligence value It is not so obvious, and the "professional outlook" does not seem to be very optimistic.
With a strength of 70 points, even if you can become a hunter or bodyguard, you can have a good meal, but an intelligence point of 70 points is more embarrassing. The best way out is to become a private school teacher.
If it is an aborigine, an intelligence of 70 points is also very good, at least it is no problem to be a junior official. But players can't do it. Although the aborigines have gradually begun to accept players, they have not yet opened up to the point where players can serve as grassroots officials on a large scale.
Although the Taoist priest system was opened a long time ago, there are only a few players in a million who can really transfer to a Taoist priest, and players who are developing in intelligence are generally more depressed.
Thinking of this, Shang Ji had an idea, and asked, "Xin Shui, can this strange man change his job to be a Taoist?"
"All things are born in nature, and Taoism follows nature. My generation has always advocated that all beings are equal, and there is no distinction between teaching and learning. If a foreigner has a heart for Taoism, the poor Taoist will be happy to see it. What a great achievement!"
"It doesn't matter, there are no big achievements, but small achievements are not difficult, right? I don't have high requirements, as long as I can master a basic talisman making method. Do you think this is difficult?" Shang Ji waved it indifferently. Waving his hand, he asked in a concentrated voice.
"What's so difficult about this? Although Yiren is impetuous, he has a flexible brain and quick thinking. It is difficult to achieve great success in cultivation, but it is very easy to master some basic talisman making as long as you work hard." Huang Yang said immediately.
Shang Ji nodded when he heard the words, and aimed his ideas at the players.
Although the future of improving intelligence is slim, there are not many players engaged in this aspect. The reason is very simple, intelligence improvement only needs to read and study, which is much easier to accept than using knives and guns on the battlefield. Based on the huge number of players, it is not difficult to find those with intelligence above 70.
The purpose of Shangji is very simple, it is to attract qualified players, transfer to Taoist priests, and help Pingzhou concentrate on making talismans.
Imitating the model of sweatshops in reality, Pingzhou provides venues and materials for players to make talismans, and every time they successfully make one, they will be rewarded with a corresponding commission. If possible, it is best to improve the process of making talismans, and follow the method of assembly line to improve efficiency as much as possible.
Of course, the specific operational details need to be carefully considered. For example, how to control players not to run away after learning is a big problem.
Even with his eyes closed, Shang Ji could imagine that starting from Pingzhou, talismans and Taoist priests would quickly become popular. No prince would let go of such an obvious opportunity to enhance his strength. He didn't want the Taoist priest he had cultivated so hard to turn around and seek refuge with others after completing his studies.
Disclosed his thoughts to Taoist Huang Yang, Taoist Huang Yang pondered for a moment, and said: "My lord's concern is not unreasonable, the stranger is indeed lacking in loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and the stranger has the characteristic of immortality. Their control ability is not strong. The subordinates will think of a way to see if they can start with the production of talismans and take some preventive measures."
"Well, it's hard work, but you don't have to force it. Although Yiren doesn't have a particularly strong concept of loyalty, he is very profit-seeking. At worst, we drive them with profit, and the price is nothing more than a little high!"
Shang Ji's idea is very simple, the big deal is to increase the share ratio. In reality, the code farmers did not see them rebelling every day at 996. Isn't it because the average income of code farmers is high.
Even if there is a betrayer, Shang Ji can still send Qian Huan or Ying Yi Mi Wu to assassinate them. With the current terrifying death penalty, it only takes one or two times to wash away all the skills he has learned. Under the threat of killing chickens and scaring monkeys, there are probably not too many people who dare to take this risk. To put it bluntly, even if you betray, you are still working for other forces. Whoever you work for is not a part-time job. There is no need to take such a big risk!
First of all, he has mastered the large-scale job transfer method of Taoist priests. With this huge advantage in hand, if Shang Ji can't compete with other princes in this respect, he can simply wipe his neck and commit suicide!
