Money Mages

' Money we need money, how does one get money by working but here's the question how does a Sect earn money'

' Do they earn it through selling items such as pills, weapons or maybe they labor to make money by doing jobs to support themselves well that's wrong'

' Even when I was younger I always wondered how do those big sects support themselves on a day to day basis never mind smaller less influential sects as its must cost a pretty penny to do so'

' What I found out is that each sect has a specialty that is basically their branding on what their sect is known for example sword cultivator sects will be very powerful as long as they have a sect master of a great realm and thats causes people to spend their money to want their children to enter'

' Why it's because the sect master is the branding and their specialty is swords allowing them to gain popularity and protection status on not offending the sect with such power which can benefit their business'

' This is where the money comes in business will form small areas in a location of the a sect of such stature which not only benefits them with protection but also their offspring'

' Its a easy they pay to be protected, the business grow without worry and the sect earns more money not only that as apart of the sect alliance when registered the Emperor gives them a monthly salary based on their rank'

"Martial Sects provide escort , personal protection services and more,Forging sects sell amazing weapons others sects want, Cultivator sects provide many unique items ranging from herbs to maybe even rare metals, Talisman sects provide many talisman that have a range of uses,Alchemy Sects provide medicine and cultivation pills and Taoist deal with many services some even assination"

' Now that's the explanation is done what about the Eclipse Academy what can it provide as it hasn't even been a month yet to get our subsidies and we don't have a brand to earn money'

' The Jade River sect occupies a mine of aquamarine ore used in many items as a bonding material as well as the Night Demon sect with the blood iron a great material for weapons that strengthen when blood is added to it'

Nile sighed thinking all of these he's already so young and thinking about how to make money in the world of capitalism.

While Nile was doing all this he was thinking about using alchemy to make some tools like back on earth that regular people used or maybe going into pharmaceuticals.

He even considered wanting to recruit some younger generation and charge a fee but only those barely without money will go to a beginning sect especially if I told them it was to learn magic in an instant they might leave.

To grow you need not only reputation, but also money, power and being at the higher the ladder of hierarchy.

So before thinking all of this we need to create an environment similar to other bigger sects as both the Jade River sect and Night Demon sect both are rank 5 sects and the live on the outer preferies like us and can expand and grow maybe even to rank 1 if opportunities provided and so does our eclipse Academy.

It's just that we took a barren region in this place and have a better start out with large space since we spent all that money on our current location no it's time to develop it and the greatest thing about this so called town where back where I come from is basically a city it is still developing as it was just situated 80 years ago.

Meaning they are still a lot of laborers and new business opportunities and maybe undiscovered natural treasures.

'As if it's better to consult everyone but I won't bother their training ' Nile thought and then asked the three who were with him now.

" Hey guys quick question what do you think we can do to earn money"

Hugh was the first to answer "We can do some task for the residents like moving boxes and cleaning places"

Niles listened and wondered ' Why are you going back to the thing that brought you here"

" Next "

Vick then replied " Maybe we can buy a business doing well them make them work for us and then expand"

Vick looked happy with such idea but Nile was thinking ' If they are doing well why would they sell it to us the money they get from us won't even account for their future earning plus we don't have much money left'

Nile explained about it then looked at shelly hoping for her opinion.

Shelly saw all eyes on here and was a little nervous and then spoke " What about a restaurant"

Nile sighed thinking what he's going to do these ideas 'don't you guys see that they are many restaurants of all types here and why would we do a restaurant it's counterproductive and might lead to the fierce competitions of other sects who have restaurants'

Nile then again explain and then spoke " We need something better guys something long term and can develop more into the future"

Just as Nile was about to speak again someone from behind him spoke " Why don't we use the incense powder and paired with another item I'm sure it will sell well"

Nile jumped in fright because he was not paying attention only to see that the person he turned around to was Litz.

Nile heard here and was thinking as well maybe it will work after all mages do like making potions and stuff.

Especially in research mages tend to find things unrelated to what they want but in the end these things help provide funds for them that is why comparable to production type jobs in games mages deal with materials to make magic items which have effects like increased speed, strength , intelligence and stamina and more

The more Nile thought about it the more it went well with the way of a mage " Well I'll listen to what you have to say"
