Ancestor Above Chapter 175

175 Chapter 174-industry model (2 in 1)

He wasn't in a hurry to practice his moves and battle-type techniques.

He then looked at another big change that came with this upgrade: [industry model]

Up until now, there were three modes in the system. The first was the normal mode, and the second was the battle mode. It had powerful functions and could directly refresh many battle exchange options. This allowed Lu Qing to display a very strong auxiliary combat ability without having to be resurrected. The other mode was the experience mode, which was equivalent to a weaker version of the battle mode. One could only watch and Exchange options, but the battle exchange option could not be refreshed, and it was only limited to one person.

And this industry model was the fourth.

As the name suggested, the business model should be related to the various businesses of the family?

There was no need for him to figure anything out. Lu Qing immediately opened it and took a look.

The system interface suddenly changed. The initial comprehensive data interface was gone, and it became two production lines.

These production lines were all gray and looked like they had not been used. There was a'+ ‘symbol behind it. Lu Qing tapped on it, and a notification popped up.

[1000 karma is required to increase the industrial line. Do you wish to increase it?]

He pressed No.

He had yet to figure out the use of this industry line. There was no hurry. Anyway, there were two now. He would study them first.

this stupid system doesn't even have a manual.

Lu Qing grumbled. He was a little clueless about the new model, so he could only research it himself.

After half a day, there were some results.

The so-called production line was the process of input and output. In the middle of the production line, many ‘card slots' could be inserted. These so-called card slots were the properties that the family currently owned and the corresponding personnel. After the input of raw materials, the processing steps in the middle, and the final output of the product were set, the production line could run with the support of the system.

There were a few advantages to this.

First, he could plan the family's business as a whole and see the various links of the industrial chain from supply to output more directly. He could also monitor the specific situation of the entire industrial chain through the system and see if there were any problems from the income to the middle.

Of course, this could have been done without the system, but the data was not as detailed and reliable.

The most important point was to plan the entire production line from the beginning to the end. After the system's production line was done, the power of the system would be involved. The most direct manifestation would be the increase in production and output value. Other than that, there were also some other useful enhancements that were of different performance.

Of course, many of the functions cost karma.

At the moment, Lu Qing was still a little more cautious. He was not in a hurry to spend money. Instead, he built a production line first and planned to see the results after a long time.

This production line was the family's refining industry.

Three card slots were inserted into the input port. One was for trade, one was for the energy stone mine, and one was for the iron red Bug swarm.

The energy stone mine and the iron red Bug swarm could produce raw materials for the fire room, but the materials needed for the various magic tools produced by the family could not be obtained by only relying on these two raw materials. Even the Lu family's best product, the Jade suppression plate, required a large amount of supplementary materials.

These auxiliary materials were not expensive, but they still needed to be purchased from the outside world. For example, the Lu clan's shop in Pingyao County had a shop that specialized in buying items from unaffiliated cultivators. This included some cultivators from the clan. If they had any gains from adventuring and training outside, they would sell them to the clan if they had no use for them.

It was very normal for cultivators to go on adventures. Everyone needed resources for cultivation, and where could they get these resources? He still had to earn it himself!

It was better for the cultivators of the Lu family as they had a backer. For example, as long as the cultivators of the Lu family were willing to work for the family, they could earn Family Contribution points and Exchange them for cultivation techniques and various materials for cultivation. Even if they did nothing, they would still receive a certain amount of income every year.

But even so, it was impossible to let everyone spend it freely. Those who didn't have any skills and were more concerned about their own cultivation and wanted to improve themselves or needed more resources had to go out on their own. Through experience and adventures, they could see if they could earn some money to supplement their cultivation resources.

Even clan cultivators were like this, let alone rogue cultivators. They had to earn all the expenses they needed for their cultivation, so what if they didn't go out and cause trouble?

The area surrounding Pingyao County could be considered rich in natural resources. There were people working for the Lu clan and accepting employment. Some went down to the wilderness to search for resources; Some of the more daring ones even dared to form a group and go to the edge of the North barren forest to hunt some demon beasts, Suan ni.

Of these gains, they would definitely digest the useful ones by themselves. However, for most of the things that they had no use for, they could barter or exchange them for spirit stones to buy. After all, the Lu clan's shop in Pingyao was right here. The purchase price might not be the most favorable, but at least the reputation of the big family was here. The safety of the transaction was guaranteed, and the money was settled quickly. There was no need to worry about being cheated or cheated.

The Lu clan had not only opened such a shop in Pingyao, but also in other places in the anling Prefecture, including anling city.

The Lu clan's cultivators simply couldn't manage that many people. The current population of the clan's cultivators hadn't even exceeded 100 yet. There were many jobs that could only be handed over to mortals in the clan who did not cultivate or have spiritual roots.

The system's additional effect on the input of raw materials was already very clear.

In terms of trade, the price of the overall purchase of materials could be reduced by five percent with the support of the system. The production of energy stone mines and iron red Bug swarms will be increased by 10%.

After the card slots were set up, Lu Qing saw many other functions.

[ random trade event activated ]

[ when this function is activated, the clan's acquisition action has a chance of triggering a trade event. They may purchase some special items at a very low price, but it may also lead to some stories. Please pay attention and observe. ]

[ 50 karma is required to activate this function every year ]

……

[ random production event activated ]

[ when this function is activated, a random event will occur at the clan's raw material production area. After the event is resolved, it will bring a higher output value increase or harvest high-grade materials. ]

[ 50 karma is required to activate this function every year ]

……

“Isn't this just picking up scraps? Secondly, does the stonemother that appeared in the energy stone mine back then count?”

This was what Lu Qing was thinking.

After that, he looked at the processed and finished products.

The so-called processing referred to the energy ore, the original ingot produced by the iron red bugs, and the materials purchased from the outside world. They definitely needed preliminary processing before they could be used as materials.

This production line was the production line for artifact refining, and the processing was also the initial processing of the artifact refining materials.

In fact, no one in the family was doing this at the moment.

Traditional blacksmiths would, of course, obtain the materials themselves, use the materials at hand to conceptualize the design, and then process the materials themselves, processing them into the desired shape, and finally forging the finished product.

Top-notch blacksmiths had ideas, experience, and techniques. Their cultivation levels were not low either. They could often forge very powerful magical artifacts with good materials.

However, this thing was obviously unstable and not suitable for standardized mass production.

In Lu Qing's mind, a portion of the low-level weapon refinement Masters in the clan should be responsible for this task. If they did not have enough manpower, they could even be outsourced or build a special fire refinement room in Pingyao County and recruit unaffiliated cultivators with a certain Foundation in weapon refinement to do this preliminary work.

In the end, when it came to the production stage, the one that was inserted into the card slot was naturally the Yuyan Mountain Fire smelting room. This was the final step of mass production of magic tools using various materials that had been initially processed.

After the entire production line was built, the family would make structural adjustments according to the relevant requirements. The power of the system would intervene and play its role, using a mysterious power to increase efficiency and production.

At the same time, there were some functions that could be activated in the final product.

For example, the [ hard work ] that increased production; [ inspiration ], which has a chance to produce new crafts; [ quick experience ] that improves the progress of production line workers

Of course, activating it would require one to pay karma in years.

In addition to the production line and the various links arranged in the production line, there was another important element in the entire production model, which was people.

For example, the person in charge of the energy stone mine was Lu tingge, a ninth-stage Qi refining cultivator of the ” ting ” generation. However, there was nothing special about Yingluo. Being in the energy stone mine did not bring any benefits to the mine.

However, the one in charge of the steel Red bugs was Lu xueting. There were also a few of her apprentices. Lu xueting was a level two high-grade Beast Tamer. Those apprentices had been learning beast taming techniques from him all these years. The one with the best achievements now was Lu qinming, who was almost at level two.

This group of people had brought a different bonus to the production of the steel Red bugs by a few to ten percent. However, some of them were gray, some were bright, and some were half-bright.

This brightness represented the amount of effort that the person had put into the asset. The higher the investment, the higher the increase in production he could bring.

Take Lu xueting as an example. She was able to increase the production of the steel Red bugs by 37%, but in reality, it was only 24%. This wasn't because she wasn't paying attention, but because she was keeping the water cloud horse group, the steel Red Bug group, and the three-eyed Yin fish group at the same time. Her energy was scattered, and she also had to take care of her own cultivation speed. She couldn't put all her energy on them.

At the same time, there was a limit to the number of people who could work in the same resource.

However, these beast tamers were still able to increase the production of the steel Red bugs by more than 50%.

This was not the system's credit, at least not entirely. Originally, with the help of a Beast Tamer, the production of the steel Red bugs would naturally be much higher than that of wild bugs of the same level. The system's main function was to visualize this data and make adjustments accordingly.

It was the same for the final product's production in the fire room. The two main members of the team were Lu chaoling and his grandson, Lu Mingjie.

The two of them could bring a total of more than 20% bonus to the output value of the fire room, and they were almost fully devoted to it.

On the comprehensive interface, Lu Qing could see that the entire production line had been categorized into three main projects. The total output value was 947 spirit stones per year. This was the estimated data.

After the assembly of the production line was completed, Lu Qing spent half a day tinkering with the system. With the effect of the industrial model, the number became close to 1200.

In other words, the clan did not need to pay anything. As long as they followed Lu Qing's arrangement in the industrial model and made the corresponding adjustments in reality, the 26% increase in the output value would be able to be put to use.

Lu Qing did not have to pay anything either. He had yet to activate the functions related to the industries that required karma!

“It's very useful!” Lu Qing had a very high evaluation of this industry model.

Putting aside the fact that the system had brought about an increase in efficiency for the clan, it was not the first time he had seen the wonders of the system. Another thing that made him pay more attention to was that he could see the linkage of many resources in a production line through this industrial system. This included how many items were produced in the end, what were they specifically, and how much they were worth.

This provided Lu Qing with a lot of useful information to guide the clan's development in a more targeted manner.

Lu Qing was not in a hurry to open up many areas that required him to spend karma. He only tried to activate the [Inspiration Inspiration] option, which cost him 50 karma a year.

After that, he could not wait to start building the second industrial line.

After refining the equipment, it was reasonable to say that it was time to start refining pills.

However, he stopped after he started.

The best Alchemist in the clan was, of course, Lu mingchao. However, Ming Chao probably didn't have the time to refine pills. She, who had just broken through to the initial enlightenment stage and obtained a Void Spirit root, was now in seclusion in the family's Sutra library. It was as if she would not leave the mountain until she made some achievements.

Apart from mingchao, the family didn't even have a second-grade Alchemist.

This definitely needed to be vigorously cultivated, but the industrial line could produce immediate results, so it was definitely better to build something else first.

Lu Qing was thinking about trade.

Trade was, of course, a type of industry.

In the early years, after the trade route between Pingyao and Luyi was opened, the Lu trading company was established. At the beginning of the year, the business was very small, and he only made about ten spiritual stones a year, which was better than nothing.

As the clan grew stronger and stronger, especially in the past two years, when the entire County was equivalent to submitting to the Lu clan, the business of the trading company naturally became better and better.

Now, the Lu clan trading company's annual income could reach more than 200 spirit stones. This was only the profits from trade. The profits from the products produced from the clan's resources such as the clan's alchemy room, alchemy room, and the five elements Spirit Tree were not recorded.

And this industrial line could also be reorganized.
