Moreover, the loose cultivators who collaborated with the Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop were mostly fixed, so it was enough to inspect a portion of the goods each provided.

Lu Miaoge explained the inspection standards for the goods to Lu Changsheng.

For instance, with talisman inspections, first and foremost, the quality of the talisman paper couldn’t be too poor.

Then, the sketched talisman lines should flow smoothly at first glance, without any bumps or scrapes, and finally, the spiritual power within should circulate unimpeded.

Talismans could be used as soon as they were made.
...
However, there would be a ten to twenty percent difference in effectiveness due to the quality of materials, the lines, and the spiritual power.

Previously, when Lu Changsheng brought his talismans to the Spiritual Talisman Shop to sell, it was because their quality was very good, which is why the sales went so smoothly.

As for the talisman paper and spiritual ink, there should not be a single flaw in quality.

Having heard this, Lu Changsheng finally understood the shop’s standards for goods.

He couldn’t help thinking about the talismans he had bought from the shop a few days earlier, only to find that one of them was flawed.

Was this just his bad luck, a coincidence, or was it a lapse in quality control?

Immediately, Lu Changsheng started inspecting more seriously.

After all, he was going to be responsible for managing the Spiritual Talisman Shop in a short while.

If there were quality issues with the goods under his watch, or if their reputation suffered, that would be problematic.

“Sister Miaoge, according to the standards, would you say the spiritual power inside this talisman is flowing smoothly?”

Lu Changsheng, holding a middle-grade talisman in his hands, gently felt the spiritual power coursing within and voiced his inquiry.

“This one is just on the passing mark, any worse and we wouldn’t accept it.”

Lu Miaoge said aloud.

Hearing this, Lu Changsheng nodded and began to work.

The work took the two of them a full two days to complete.

“Changsheng, you’ve worked hard. If it weren’t for your help, it would have taken me two or three more days to finish the spot checks.”

Lu Miaoge said with a light smile on her face.

“It’s what I should do.”

Lu Changsheng smiled and then took out a list and said, “These people’s goods have issues, so we’ll return them. We won’t cooperate with them in the future, right?”

During the two days of inspections, they indeed found some talismans, talisman papers, and spiritual inks that failed to meet quality standards.

“That’s right, the main thing about running a shop in the marketplace is reputation.”

“If there are too many issues with the goods, a bad reputation will essentially ruin the shop. That’s why strict quality control in this area is a must.”

Lu Miaoge nodded her head with a serious tone.

“Okay, I’ll make sure to control this aspect well.”

Lu Changsheng naturally understood this principle too.

They say that becoming an official or getting rich means making enemies in the same trade, and rivals within the same industry harbor nothing but naked hatred for each other.

With so many spiritual talisman shops in the Nine Dragons Market, competition is fierce.

The Lu Family’s Spiritual Talisman Shop had not reached its current state easily.

If any issues arose, other talisman shops would definitely pile on, and the business could plummet drastically.

“Uncle Zhang, I’ve finished inspecting the goods. These few suppliers have a low rate of quality goods, return all their items and cease future cooperation.”

Lu Changsheng, holding a list, said to Zhang Shan.

“Yes, Second Master.”

Shopkeeper Zhang Shan nodded and took the list to look. Upon seeing a name on it, he said, “Second Master, this loose cultivator named Jia Huairen has cooperated with our shop for several years, and there has never been an issue during that time.”

“Could there be some problem this time? Shall I ask him about it when I have a chance?”

Zhang Shan suggested.

“Has he been cooperating for several years without ever having an issue?”

Lu Changsheng raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

“Yes, ever since the First Master took over the shop, Jia Huairen has been working with us without any problems, and the quality has always been good.”

Zhang Shan said evenly.

“In that case, send his goods back to him and have him check everything himself.”
