The Zhou family's finances are in trouble!

This was Zhou Yang's first reaction after hearing the report of Zhou Xuanhe, the elder in charge of finance.

On the surface, the Zhou family's spirit stones have a lot of surplus every year, and they have saved more than 15,000 spirit stones in more than ten years, which looks very beautiful.

But in fact, if you count the family contribution points issued by the Zhou family every year, you will find that the Zhou family's finances have actually entered a state of making ends meet.

If it wasn't for Zhou Yang who came up with the method of using family contribution points instead of spirit stones as family welfare offerings, not only would there not be a balance of spirit stones in the family account, but the spirit stones would still be owed to the family cultivators!

However, Zhou Yang also knew that no one could be blamed for this situation, because no one thought that the number of monks in the Zhou family would increase so much in just ten or twenty years. so much.

The foundation-building cultivators accounted for nearly one-third of those contribution points.

It can only be said that the current site and industry of the Zhou family are no longer worthy of the strength and position that the Zhou family has now, and they cannot keep up with the growth rate of the Zhou family’s population. Therefore, the development of new industries and the expansion of the family’s territory is the responsibility of the Zhou family. First priority down.

Zhou Yang turned these thoughts in his mind, but looked at Zhou Xuanhe with a constant expression on his face and nodded: "I know all about the situation, Uncle Fourteen, sit down first, I will ask some questions below, I hope you and All the clansmen can solve my doubts with your heart!"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Xuanying, the new elder of the family's House of Commons, and asked, "Thirteenth aunt, your House of Commons is in charge of the distribution of tasks for the family. Whether the family monks go out for training or guard a certain place, they will report to you when they come back. Experience, do you know how many monks in the family have had the experience of fighting with others in the past ten years? How many people have had the experience of fighting with monsters of the same rank? Rank monsters?"

Zhou Xuanying did not expect that he would ask such a question, and was somewhat at a loss when he heard this.

But after all, she is also a person who has practiced for over a hundred years. She quickly suppressed the panic in her heart and said calmly: "I am not prepared for this matter. Please ask the patriarch to allow me to check the information before answering."

"Then Thirteen Aunt, please check the information first, and I will ask other people first."

Zhou Yang nodded, but he didn't blame the clan aunt. After all, the Zhou family didn't pay much attention to this kind of thing in the past. As far as can be checked.

So he turned his eyes and looked at Zhou Guangxiang, the leader of the younger generation of the Zhou family, and asked, "Guangxiang, you have been in charge of the Yuquan Building for a few years. Let me ask you, how many things are currently for sale in the Yuquan Building. Are the clansmen consigning them there? What is the sales rate of these things?"

Maybe it’s the reason why he only manages one store, maybe it’s the reason why young people are in power for the first time and do everything in order to do things well. After Zhou Guangxiang heard Zhou Yang’s question, he was just a little stunned, and then he got up and said after a little pondering: " Patriarch Mingjian, if you want to talk about the exact number of items, your nephew can’t tell, but in general, the items sold by the clansmen on consignment account for about 30% of the items in the store, and the items sold may be less than half of the total!”

"Very good, Guangxiang, you answered very well. Now you are also sitting down. I have a question for Uncle Fourteen."

Zhou Yang nodded with satisfaction, looked at the fourteenth uncle Zhou Xuanhe again, and asked in a deep voice: "Fourteenth uncle, you reported the family's financial income and expenditure earlier, so I will ask you now, the family is currently apart from the three of us. Who are the top five people with the most Contribution Points outside of the Foundation Establishment cultivators? How many Contribution Points do they have?"

This question is relatively simple, or in other words, Zhou Xuanhe pays more attention to this topic on weekdays. After hearing the words, he immediately replied: "If the patriarch Hui, the family currently has five people who have contributed the most points, namely the eighth brother-in-law with 5123 points and the eleventh brother. 3785 points, Thirteenth Sister 3350 points, I 2970 points, Seventeenth Brother 2360 points."

When Zhou Yang heard the words, he pondered for a while and then continued to ask: "There are so many Uncle Eight, because the Contribution of Uncle Eight and him is all on him, but the rest of you, except Uncle Seventeen, who raised the golden-haired blue sheep and the gnats. The flame spider has been specially rewarded with a thousand contribution points by the family, and the rest of the people can have so many contribution points, it should be a transaction with the clan, right?"

"Yes, we have all exchanged contribution points with some young clansmen with the spirit stones we have accumulated in the past, but I can guarantee that we are all fair trades, and we will never force anyone to trade with us relying on power and elder status!"

Zhou Xuanhe was afraid of Zhou Yang's misunderstanding, so he emphasized the words "fair trade", and then looked at the old patriarch Zhou Minghan.

Although he is in charge of the family finances, when it comes to the transaction of contribution points, even if it is a little, it must be approved by the patriarch, so Zhou Minghan knows all these things.

"The old man can prove this for Xuanhe and the others."

Zhou Minghan nodded slightly, and finally said his first sentence since entering the council hall.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang nodded. He didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at the general affairs elder Zhou Xuanying who had already read the records and asked, "Then Thirteenth Aunt, have you collected the data?"

"In the words of the patriarch Hui, I just checked the information and found that in the past ten years, a total of five family monks have fought with each other, and two of them have successfully killed the enemy."

"At the same time, in the past ten years, twelve monks from the family have fought against monsters, killing six second-order monsters and 23 first-order monsters, mostly when they were stationed in mines and guarding oasis. Killed!"

Zhou Xuanying said item by item the information he had just consulted, and then looked at Zhou Yang with puzzled eyes, not understanding what he wanted to know.

Seeing her gaze, Zhou Yang couldn't help but smiled and said, "Aunt Thirteen, Uncle Fourteen and Uncle Eleven, are you wondering why I suddenly asked these things at this family meeting today?"

"Yes."

The few people who were named by him nodded in succession, then held their breaths and waited for him to clear their doubts.

"I can't tell you the specific situation, I can only say that I have learned something from this trip, and really understand how to make a family strong and united."

"I asked you about these things in order to analyze some of the information you want to know. Now I will analyze it, and all of you can take a look at it."

Zhou Yang glanced at the people in the hall, and then said in a low voice: "From the number of times the monks in the family killed monsters and fought with people, we can see that the monks in the family rarely go out to hunt monsters and take risks in the world of immortality. , from the number of treasures consigned by the clansmen in Yuquan Building, it can be seen that the savings in the hands of the monks in the clan are not very rich."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the monks of the "Yuan" generation and the monks of the "Guang" generation who were born after the Zhou family implemented the contribution point system, and asked, "I dare to say, if you remove the family contribution points that the family gave you, you In the early and middle stages of Qi training, cultivators might not even be able to take out a hundred spirit stones in their pockets, right?"

Hearing what he said, the younger monks looked at each other in dismay, but no one dared to answer.

In the end, Zhou Guangxiang, the representative of the younger generation, got up and said, "I can confirm this for the patriarch. Even my sister Xiang'er has no more than one hundred spirit stones in her storage bag now!"

"now it's right!"

Zhou Yang nodded, waved his hand to signal Zhou Guangxiang to sit down, and then looked at the crowd with bright eyes and said, "Because of the particularity of the boundless sand and sea cultivation world, and the lack of a sufficient number of high-level monks in the previous family, the number of clan members There are not many, so the family rule is that if the cultivation base is not in the late stage of Qi training, you are not allowed to go out to practice at will!"

"This rule must have been correct before, to protect the clansmen from harm, but its existence has also seriously hindered the way for young clan children to earn spirit stones, leaving most clan children fifty or sixty years ahead. They can only live by receiving family benefits and offerings!"

"But it's different now. Now there are a lot of high-level monks in the family, and the number of monks is growing every year. We are no longer afraid of taking losses!"

"I know that everyone wants to accumulate family contribution points to exchange for foundation building Dan, but you can see for yourself, even if it is the eighth uncle, he and the deceased eighth aunt's contribution points are only more than 5,000 points now. If you want to Through this method of slowly accumulating, to accumulate contribution points and exchange them for Foundation Establishment Dan, what year and month can I accumulate 20,000 contribution points?"

"I'm not afraid to tell you, I have two foundation building pills in my hands now. After the Chen family refines the foundation building pills in a few years, we can still get one free foundation building pill. Two more!"

"What is the difference between these foundation building pills and stones? But if they are distributed, you are all members of my Zhou family, and many people have similar spiritual qualities. Who should I give it to? Who should I not give it to? ?"

"So, the first thing I want to say today is that the rules that the family has implemented for two hundred years are about to change. In the future, the family will release the restrictions on going out to experience adventures. If you are a middle-grade magic weapon, you can apply for an adventure with the clan elders!"

"What I want to tell you is that the world of immortality is cruel. If you want to build a foundation, if you want your descendants to build a foundation, you can only go out and fight when you are young!"

"At the same time, I can promise you that even if you die, the family contribution points will still be given to your designated relatives to inherit, and the spiritual resources you get out of the experience can be used by the family at the market price. Contribution point recycling!"

Zhou Yang expressed his thoughts and plans in one breath~lightnovelpub.net~ and only felt very happy in his heart.

This idea and plan came to him after he heard about Dong Jianping's life experience in the Floating Cloud Continent Cultivation World.

Dong Jianping is only a mid-level spiritual root, but he was able to gather enough spirits to buy Foundation Building Pills before he was sixty years old by virtue of his daring personality, and his extraordinary luck. Stone, the foundation was successfully built.

In the six immortal cities standing in the Broken Cloud Mountains, including Zhenyue Xiancheng, there are thousands of loose cultivators like Dong Jianping, who are fighting desperately for the foundation.

Even these loose cultivators can do this, the Zhou family's immortal cultivators, why can't they?

The resources of the Boundless Sand Sea Cultivation Realm are not as rich as the Liuyun Continent Cultivation Realm, but the conditions possessed by the monks of the Zhou family are comparable to those of Dong Jianping when he first came into practice?

Zhou Yang personally experienced the battle of the "beast tide" siege, and after witnessing countless qi-training monks being harvested by monsters in front of his eyes like rice, he became enlightened.

If a cultivator wants to truly seek longevity and truly allow himself to live longer than others in the future, he should first have the courage not to be afraid of death!

You are not a descendant of a Jindan period cultivator, so don't think that a foundation building pill will fall from the sky for you to build a foundation.

If you were born ordinary, with average spiritual aptitude, and if you want to live forever and build a foundation, then you should work harder and not be afraid of death than those from wealthy backgrounds!

Zhou Yang wants the Zhou family to produce more foundation-building cultivators, and wants the Zhou family to become the Zifu family and the Jindan family, but he absolutely does not want those foundation-building cultivators to hide in the family and rely on the shadow of their ancestors. The person who came to get the Foundation Establishment Dan.

Although, he himself built the foundation like this before!
