Small is home, big is country.

Governing a country and governing a family have the same principles.

It may not be the best way to run a family, but it must be a very useful one.

He set the number of deacons and elders of the Zhou family to seven, and dealt with different things in seven aspects, which not only clarified the powers and responsibilities, but also improved the efficiency of work.

Under this mechanism, in fact, the most damaged person is the patriarch of the family.

Originally, in the Zhou family, the patriarch could decide all major and small matters in one word. In all aspects, the patriarch wanted to do whoever he wanted to do it, as long as that person had the identity of an elder.

But now, it is the situation where the seven elders and the patriarch jointly rule the family.

Because the deacon elders have the same status in the family as the foundation-building cultivators, even the patriarch, and they do not have the power to appoint or remove them at will, and they need to give convincing reasons for their decisions to govern before they can be refuted.

According to the rules formulated by Zhou Yang, the deacon elders must first be recommended and self-recommended by the clansmen, and before taking office, the cultivation base must not be lower than the ninth level of Qi practice, and the age should not be higher than 110 years old, and must not be lower than 60 years old.

Then, every cultivator of the Zhou family who wants to run for the relevant deacon elders will have a three-year probation period after being tested by the patriarch and other foundation-building elders and elders.

Under such screening, it is almost guaranteed that the deacon elders selected will not be mediocrity who know nothing about professional business.

In order to remove the deacon elder, in addition to the elder Taishang who can be removed in one word, the patriarch can only suspend a deacon elder for a month at most.

Then either ask the Taishang elder to directly remove the deacon elder, or call other deacon elders and foundation-building cultivators, state the mistakes made by the deacon elder in front of these people, and initiate a vote to decide whether to remove the deacon who committed the crime. Elder duties.

It can be said that as long as Zhou Yang, the Supreme Elder, can defend himself, this system can be called "perfect".

As for if he can't keep himself...it doesn't need to be considered at all.

To sum up, the emergence of the deacon elders has weakened the power of the patriarch and enhanced the power of the original elders. This is a good and bad thing for all the elders of the Zhou family who now have the ninth level of Qi cultivation. matter.

Regardless of seniority, if only in terms of ability, who would admit that he is inferior to others?

What's more, even if they did not become deacon elders, with their cultivation base, they could continue to receive job subsidies if they entered the seven governing bodies and served as a deputy hall master and deacon?

So after Zhou Yang finished speaking his opinion, the original Zhou family elders quickly agreed with this opinion after some deliberation, and the matter was completely settled.

After the matter was settled, Zhou Yang just looked at the Zhou family cultivator in the discussion hall and said in a deep voice, "Finally, let's talk about the family style!"

"I have also heard recently that as our Zhou family occupies more and more territory, there are more and more monks in the family, especially after I was promoted to the Zifu period, some monks in the family have begun to borrow the family's reputation. , to do some detrimental deeds! It's a bastard!"

"The generations of our Zhou family have given their lives, their youth, and everything!"

"Only in exchange for the current take-off and prosperity of the family!"

"Now, now that the bones of those elders are not cold, some people are willing to ruin the foundation and reputation that the ancestors paid for everything for their own selfish interests!"

"I can't stand this kind of thing!"

"I'm putting my words here today. As long as I'm still alive, and as long as I'm still in charge of the Zhou family, I will never tolerate any Zhou family members doing things that commit **** and corrupt the family style!"

boom!

A gigantic momentum, following Zhou Yang's stern words fell, suddenly rose up from him, pressing the Zhou family cultivators in the discussion hall to change color, and the atmosphere did not dare to take a breath.

This is also the first time that Zhou Yang has used power within the family to oppress people after he took over as the head of the Zhou family.

In the past, no matter how angry he was, he would never do this, because when a family meeting was held at that time, there would always be a group of family elders here.

But now that the old patriarch Zhou Minghan had passed away, Zhou Xuanhao was sitting in Chihu Ridge and couldn't get out of his body. The monks in this discussion hall today are all Zhou Yang's peers and younger generations.

In this case, using power to oppress people can actually make these people truly understand his determination, and leave a very deep impression on these people, so that they will remember the reasons for Zhou Yang's use of power to oppress people today for decades. .

At this moment, Zhou Yang's momentum covered all the Zhou family members in the hall, looking at everyone with a serious face and shouting loudly:

"I'm here to tell you today that, as the patriarch, I don't object to your family and my name to make friends with people for convenience when you go out and travel."

"But if anyone dares to rely on this outsider to forcibly seize the spiritual stone treasure, or even deceive men and women to kill and steal treasures, I, Zhou Yang, will deal with one if I find one, and if I find a hundred people, I will deal with one. Hundreds of people, we will never tolerate raising a traitor and let one person go!"

"I don't ask you to take the initiative to do good deeds to improve the reputation of the Zhou family, but if anyone dares to commit a crime and corrupt the family's reputation, don't blame me, Zhou Yang, for not talking about family affection, disregarding the relationship, and personally taking your head to the victim. Apologize and warn the clan!"

The sound of shouting was like thunder, rolling in the council hall, shocking people's eardrums.

All the Zhou family members in the discussion hall heard the irreversible and unquestionable determination from his shout.

So after he finished speaking, no one dared to question him like before, but they all kept their mouths shut and did not dare to say a word.

Zhou Yang is usually very friendly and has a good temper, and he does not put on airs in front of his clan as a cultivator.

But when he released the imposing and coercive power of the Zifu period cultivator, no one could ignore, nor dare to ignore the fact that he was a Zifu period cultivator.

The fact is that once the cultivators of the Zifu period make a decision, it is definitely not something that they, the foundation-building cultivators and the qi-training cultivators, can influence and change.

Therefore, Zhou Yang's decision was, of course, passed unanimously.

Once this matter was passed, Zhou Yang's purpose of convening this clan meeting was also achieved.

Therefore, he quickly regained his momentum and waved his hand lightly: "Okay, that's it for today's clan discussion. Regarding the selection of deacon elders, after you go back, think about which elder you are suitable for before you go look for them. Guangxiang signs up, and after the one-month sign-up period has passed, there will be news to you about how to proceed in the future!"

"One more thing, after you go out, remember to convey the content of today's clan discussion to all clan members as soon as possible, especially the establishment of uprightness, thrift, honesty and family style, and even more emphasis on publicity, must let all clan members know, This is an iron law that cannot be broken!"

After he finished speaking, he moved, and the first one left the council hall.

The content of this meeting quickly spread throughout the Zhou family.

After hearing the content of the meeting, some of the Zhou family cultivators were happy, some were terrified, and some showed a firm look and seemed to have made some kind of important decision.

Zhou Yang also specially suspended his practice afterwards, and worked with Zhou Guangxiang to select the deacon elders.

According to Zhou Yang's ideas, the position of deacon elder is very important. Once selected, it is best not to change it for at least ten or twenty years.

Therefore, when choosing deacons and elders specifically, the people he gives priority to are those who are younger.

Of course, in order to take care of the emotions of those of his peers, it is definitely not possible to appoint all young people to serve as deacon elders.

After half a year of busywork in this way, the candidates for the first generation of deacon elders were finally decided.

They are the elder Zhou Yuanpeng, the elder Zhou Yuanpeng, the elder Zhou Yuanchang, the elder Zhou Yuanliang, the elder Zhou Yuanliang, the elder Zhou Guangyun, the elder Zhou Guangkun, the elder Zhou Guangkun, the elder Zhou Guangtai, and the elder Tan Qiu.

It happened to be three "Yuan" cultivators and three "Guang" cultivators, plus a relative cultivator, and there was a female elder named Zhou Guangyun.

After these deacons and elders were elected, the establishment of seven governing bodies soon followed.

According to the results negotiated by Zhou Yang and these elders, the total number of the seven governing bodies should not exceed half of the total number of monks in the family.

In this way, based on the current cultivator population of the Zhou family, which is close to 200, the final result is that the number of people in the Chuan Gong Hall, the Internal Affairs Hall, and the Foreign Affairs Hall are tentatively set at 5, and the punishment hall, the general affairs hall, and the financial hall are fixed at 7 people. The church had the largest number of people, 10 people.

For those in these governing bodies, the minimum requirement for cultivation is mid-term Qi practice, and then as a deacon, they can receive an additional 50 contribution points per year, and as a deputy head, they can receive an additional 100 contribution points each year.

Of course, if there is reward, there will be punishment~lightnovelpub.net~ Of course you can get job subsidies if you serve in the seven halls, but if you do not perform well, or if you find dereliction of duty in the internal affairs hall's assessment and inspection, not only will the subsidy be deducted, There will even be a penalty for annual benefits.

The specific questions about the recruitment of personnel in each hall, Zhou Yang has no need to ask, and he has handed it over to the hall masters of each hall to recruit. He only needs to check the signature at the end.

And after these seven halls began to operate, not only his patriarch could have a lot less, but Zhou Guangxiang, who had been caught by him to deal with family affairs, could finally return to the cave to retreat and attack the third-order array mage.

Of course, it is impossible for Zhou Yang to really be idle. Even if he does not deal with family affairs and practice, it is enough for him to schedule his time fully.

For example, after he was promoted to Zifu, the cultivation task he set for himself could not be completed without ten or twenty years.

However, he is enjoying the busyness of completing the task of cultivation, and he is not happy about the other.

Because every time he completes a task in cultivation, he can unlock and master new magical powers, and directly greatly improve his strength.
