Chapter 140: Chapter 92: Screwing on the Assembly Line!_1
“Hmm, really?”
Upon hearing the system notification, Lu Changsheng’s heart immediately leapt with joy.
In his boring and monotonous daily life, only giving birth and the system lottery could stir some ripples in his heart.
“Does this mean that every time I have ten children, the system will give me a share of Child Money?”
Lu Changsheng couldn’t help but think to himself.
“System, I want to draw the lottery!”
He did not speculate too much.
After all, too much speculation leads to expectations.
And with expectations come disappointments.
As he watched the lottery wheel appear before his eyes, Lu Changsheng’s Mental Spirit stirred: “Start the lottery draw!”
Immediately, the lottery wheel began to shimmer with golden light.
Under Lu Changsheng’s gaze, the golden light finally stopped on ‘Skills’.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining Second Rank Puppet Skills!]
[The reward has been delivered to the System Space, the host can check it at any time]
A light orb shaped like a puppet emerged from the big wheel alongside the sound of the system.
“Second Rank Puppet Skills?”
Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow upon seeing the skills he obtained from the lottery draw.
Puppetry within the myriad arts of cultivation was considered a somewhat niche skill.
Although it was not as prominent as Formation, Alchemy, Artifact Refining, or Talisman Making.
Nevertheless, it was still considered a pretty decent craft.
Once mastered, one would not want for anything in life.
Or to say, among the myriad arts of cultivation, mastering any one art to its peak ensured a comfortable life.
Even the least regarded like Spirit Plant cultivation, butchery, medicinal cuisine, breeding, and so on, were decent if one was skilled; diligently working in these arts would make life progressively sweeter.
Lu Changsheng’s Mental Spirit stirred as he looked towards the light orb in the System Space.
[Second Rank Puppet Skills: Upon use, immediately comprehend Second-tier Top Level Puppet Skills and the corresponding Puppet Compendium.]
“Indeed, just like the Talisman Making I received before, it directly provides Second-tier Top Level Puppet Skills, meaning the highest I can craft are puppets comparable to the peak of Foundation Establishment.”
“With these Puppet Skills, I can not only deploy Talisman Sea Tactics but also perform Puppet Sea Technique in the future!”
“If I have a few Second Rank Puppets with me, that will ensure my safety in the future!”
Lu Changsheng nodded slightly as he looked at the description, quite satisfied.
He really liked this craft; it suited him well.
Or to say, Lu Changsheng found all the myriad arts of cultivation appealing.
After all, a man can never have too many skills!
Knowing a few more crafts couldn’t hurt.
Even if he couldn’t use them immediately, later on, when establishing a family, he could teach them to his children or others.
Lu Changsheng had already thought it through.
If he were to establish a cultivation family, it would be just like now.
Avoiding conflict and strife, making connections, and living harmoniously and profitably.
The entire family would rely on mastering various crafts, earning money, and cultivating steadily.
Without hesitation,
Lu Changsheng used the Second Rank Puppet Skills from the System Space.
In an instant, a wealth of knowledge entered his mind out of thin air.
“Puppet Primer”
“Basic Puppet Compendium”
“First Grade Puppet Compendium”
“Second Rank Puppet Compendium”
“Crafting Puppets by Hand”
“How Puppets Are Made”
“My Affairs with Puppets”
After a while,
Lu Changsheng’s mind was filled with a flood of knowledge about puppets.
Identifying materials for making puppets,
How to use the skeletons of demon beasts and ferocious beasts to create puppets,
Puppet Formation Engraving, spirit mechanisms, and control, etc.
“Phew!”
“Worthy of the system, even though I’ve experienced it once before, this sensation still feels incredibly profound.”
Lu Changsheng breathed out deeply and looked at his own hands,
Not only was his mind filled with loads of knowledge about puppets,
But his hands also felt like they had been crafting, assembling, polishing, and refining puppets for decades.
If he had a pile of materials now, he could perform live puppet crafting with his bare hands.
“However, this Puppet Skill doesn’t seem as good as I thought it would be.”
After absorbing the Second Rank Puppet Skills, Lu Changsheng slightly frowned.
Based on his new understanding of puppet crafting,
He realized there were several significant issues with making puppets.
It took time!
It cost money!
Even with Second Rank Puppet Skills and being a Second-tier Top Level Puppet Master,
Working with the right materials, it would still take two or three days, maybe even longer, to craft an ordinary First Grade low-quality puppet,
For a First Grade middle-grade puppet, at least seven or eight days, possibly up to a fortnight.
And as for First Grade high-quality puppets, even longer, usually starting from a fortnight.
With his regular cultivation, Talisman Making, spending time with his wives and concubines, and child creation, Lu Changsheng clearly knew he did not have enough time or energy to mass-produce puppets.
Moreover, the material costs for creating puppets were high.
Lu Changsheng made a rough estimate, nÊw st𝒐ries at n𝒐/vel/b/i/n(.)co𝒎
Just the material costs for an ordinary First Grade low-quality puppet would be around twenty or thirty Spirit Stones.
Although he wasn’t sure of the exact price of a low-grade puppet,
He vaguely knew that the price of one would not exceed a hundred Spirit Stones.
That meant that crafting a puppet, busying himself for three or four days, would only yield three or four times the profit.
This profitability paled in comparison to Talisman Making, it was downright embarrassing!
“No wonder there exists a hierarchy among craftsmen; Formation, Alchemy, Artifact Refining, and Talisman Making, the mainstream arts, look down on other crafts.”
“Puppetry might be decent within the myriad arts of cultivation, but compared to the relatively effortless and highly profitable Talisman Making, the difference is immediately apparent.”
“Furthermore, among the mainstream four arts of cultivation, Talisman Making is ranked at the bottom.”
Lu Changsheng shook his head, reflecting.
Suddenly, he felt that these Second Rank Puppet Skills were somewhat superfluous to his current situation.
Firstly, this skill was not a means to make money.
