Chapter 135: Family Meeting (Part 1)

The family meetings of the Yuquan Zhou family are not held regularly. Instead, the clan leader and the Supreme Elder decide whether to hold them based on the actual situation of the family.

The last time the Zhou family held a family meeting was when Zhou Yang just took over as the patriarch, and now seven or eight years have passed since he took over as the patriarch of the family.

The difference from last time is that this time the family meeting was held, all the monks from the top to bottom of the Zhou family, including monks such as Lin Yuting and Chen Ting, as well as younger family monks such as Zhou Guangxiang and Zhou Yuanyao, and even some who were still in their infancy,

All the babies with spiritual roots were recalled to Yuquan Peak.

The meeting venue was also moved from indoor to outdoor, in the square outside the Zhou Family Ancestral Temple.

"Fifth Uncle, please count the number of people and see if all the monks in the family are here."

In the square outside the Zhou family's ancestral temple, dozens of Zhou family monks, large and small, were sitting cross-legged. As the patriarch, Zhou Yang, after all the participants arrived, began to ask Zhou Xuanbin, the second elder in charge of family personnel, about the number of people present.

He has not been in the family for a while, and he is still not completely sure about the number of monks in the family now.

When Zhou Xuanbin heard his question, he immediately stood up and scanned everyone, and finally bowed respectfully to him and said: "To the patriarch, my Zhou family currently has 1 member of the Ming generation, 11 members of the Xuan generation, and 11 members of the Yuan generation.

There are 21 people from the Zi generation, 24 people from the Guang generation, and 5 monks from relatives, all of whom are here."

"Oh, before you know it, the number of monks in our Zhou family has reached 57?"

Zhou Yang's eyes flashed with surprise, and he was quite surprised by the monk population data that Zhou Xuanbin said.

When the last family meeting was held, the Zhou family had only 26 monks, excluding the brothers and sisters. Unexpectedly, in just seven or eight years, the number of monks had nearly doubled.

"Hahaha, the main thing is that Xiaojiu you have done a good job with the maternity subsidy fund. In my opinion, the amount of spiritual stones for this subsidy can be mentioned again. Our Zhou family is not afraid of not being able to support so many people now, but we are afraid

These boys don’t want to give birth!”

Zhou Minghan laughed and explained the reason for the increase in the Zhou family's population.

Before this family meeting, Zhou Yang had already revealed some details to him, so he felt confident when he said this now.

However, he said this easily, and the monks of the "Yuan" generation of the Zhou family who were the main force in childbearing rolled their eyes when they heard what he said.

Among the monks of the "Yuan" generation present today, excluding Zhou Yang and a few others and those direct descendants born from the elders of the "Xuan" generation, which one of the rest has not given birth to twenty or thirty descendants?

After giving birth to so many offspring, not even one-tenth of them had spiritual roots. This made many of them give up on the idea of ​​having children and making a fortune.

If it weren't for the fact that having a baby was a one-time deal, they would have thought of returning it now!

"Great-grandfather's proposal is worth considering, but let's talk about other matters now."

Zhou Yang nodded, indicating that he would consider the matter, and then looked at the third elder of the family, the general elder Zhou Xuanlin.

"Uncle Qi, now it's up to you to explain the family's financial situation to everyone."

When Zhou Xuanlin heard this, he immediately stood up with a look of embarrassment on his face and said, "To the patriarch, due to the influence of the previous demonic chaos, the family's spiritual rice, spiritual minerals and other raw materials have not been sold much. I'm afraid it is difficult to estimate the financial income.

"

"It's okay. Uncle Qi, just give a rough estimate based on the normal market price in the past." Zhou Yang waved his hand, indicating that Zhou Xuanlin shouldn't be nervous.

"This...please forgive me, clan leader. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to calculate this data for a while!"

Zhou Xuanlin's face turned red and he lowered his head, his voice so low that it was almost inaudible.

He didn't think about this at all beforehand. He just prepared a reserve account book for various materials. Zhou Yang didn't ask him how much materials he had in stock, but asked him to directly estimate the value of the materials in stock. How could he calculate so many kinds of materials in one time?

The price of materials.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold, and Zhou Yang did not expect that Zhou Xuanlin, who was in charge of the family's finances, could not even make a rough financial income statement.

He looked at the white-haired seventh uncle, and he couldn't say any words of blame no matter what.

In the end, he could only give a hint with a wry smile: "Uncle Qi, think about it carefully. In addition to the income mentioned in the last family meeting, what other income channels does the family have now? The income generated by these income channels is not as normal as before the chaos."

How much is the estimated income? How many treasures are there in the family treasury?"

Hearing what he said, Zhou Xuanlin suddenly woke up from a dream. He quickly took out the account book from his storage bag and flipped through it. Then he estimated the price in his mind and said loudly:

"Clan Chief Mingjian, in addition to the income mentioned in the last family meeting, the family's current income channels include the income from the Red Flame Iron Ore Vein, as well as the income from the two stores Yuquan Tower and Zuixian Tower, in addition to the income from the Devouring House.

The silk produced by the flame spider and the goat's milk produced by the golden blue sheep."

"Among them, the Crimson Flame Iron Ore Vein could provide the family with a net income of about 1,200 spirit stones every year before the Demonic Rebellion began. The two shops in Yuquan Tower could provide a stable net income of about 1,700 every year. The spiders spewed by 15 flame-eating spiders every year

The silk can be used to refine three robes, and the net income is about 1,000 spirit stones. The three golden-haired blue sheep have not yet produced milk, and their current value cannot be estimated."

"There are currently 2 third-level magical artifacts in the family treasury, 7 second-order high-grade magical artifacts, 32 second-order medium-grade magical artifacts, 37 second-order low-grade magical artifacts, and 16 second-order high-grade magical talismans.

There are 7 middle-grade spiritual talismans, 9 second-order low-grade spiritual talismans, 2 sets of second-order mid-grade formations, and 5 sets of second-order low-grade formations.”

"Finally, let's talk about expenditures. Since the family's previous main expenditure item, the family monks' welfare offering, was changed to contribution points, the current main expenditure of the family has become the payment of maternity subsidy funds. According to the family's previous subsidy standards, the family's annual maternity subsidy fund is now distributed.

The subsidy fund’s spirit stones have exceeded 600.”

"The second largest expenditure is the subsidy for Fengyue Tower. The annual subsidy for Lingshi is about 400."

"The third largest expenditure is the tribute to Huangshamen. The family needs to pay tribute to Huangshamen once every ten years. The total value of the tribute materials and spiritual stones must not be less than three thousand spiritual stones."

"To sum up, if everything is normal, the family can earn a net income of about 6,200 spirit stones and an expenditure of about 1,400 spirit stones each year."

"Finally, the family currently has a balance of 14,387 spiritual stones."

Zhou Xuanlin seemed to want to make up for his previous mistakes. He held his breath and told all the financial income and expenditure.

After saying this, he took a deep breath and continued: "In addition, I have something to report to the clan leader. Now that the number of monks in the family has increased, the consumption of resources such as spiritual rice and elixirs has also increased. Therefore, the family's spiritual fields and spiritual resources have also increased.

The output of the medicine garden will decrease."

"At the same time, some clan members have responded many times that the items that can be exchanged for family contribution points are not as rich as those in the shops outside Fangshi. They asked the family if they can invest in purchasing various treasures from the outside world to enrich the variety of treasures in the family treasury, and at the same time open the contribution points to redeem spiritual stones.

options.”

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Qi."

Zhou Yang nodded slightly, and finally a smile appeared on his face.

From Zhou Xuanlin's words, we can know that the Zhou family's current financial balance is extremely good, with the income to expenditure ratio reaching 4:1. Even if this balance of income and expenditure ratio is applied to the companies in his previous life, it is still very impressive.

’s results.

Of course, he did not ignore what Zhou Xuanlin said at the end. The main reason why the Zhou family's financial balance is as impressive as it is now is because the number of monks in the family is small, and contribution points are used to replace spiritual stones as welfare offerings for the monks in the family.

As the Zhou family's monk population gradually expands, this income-expenditure ratio will inevitably no longer be maintained.

After smiling like this, his face returned to normal, and then he glanced at all the clan members and said in a serious tone: "Uncle Seven has just talked about the current financial situation of the family. Here I will tell you something that you have not heard of before.

Things you know.”

"The first thing I want to tell you is that I have been promoted to a third-level weapon refiner."

"Secondly, what I want to tell you is that the family currently has a Foundation Establishment Pill as a reserve, and the ancestor of the Chen family has also promised that the next time he refines the Foundation Establishment Pill, he will give our Zhou family a Foundation Establishment Pill for free.

Kidan!”

"Third, in addition to the inheritance of the third-level weapon refiner, the family now also has the inheritance of the third-level spirit planter and the third-level beast tamer. In addition, there is also a third-level elixir in hand, so if you want to learn a hundred methods of cultivating immortals,

When it comes to art, it’s best to start from these aspects.”

Wow!

After listening to Zhou Yang's words, the place outside the Zhou Family Ancestral Temple suddenly became as lively as a vegetable market.

"Did I hear you correctly? Patriarch, he just said that the family now has a foundation-building pill in hand?"

"The Foundation Establishment Pill! Where did the patriarch get such a treasure? And there are more than one!"

"The question is, what does the patriarch mean by saying this now? Has he already decided who he will give the Foundation Establishment Pill to?"

Zhou Yang told three pieces of news, but the dozens of Zhou family monks in the audience, except for those children and babies who were not very sensible, all focused on the three words "Foundation Establishment Pill"

Already.

Before this, no one thought that the Zhou family would obtain another Foundation Building Pill so quickly, including Zhou Minghan.

When Zhou Yang told him that he had a Foundation Building Pill in his hand, the expression on his face was no better than those on the field now.

"Quiet, everyone, be quiet and listen to what I have to say first!"

In the noisy atmosphere, Zhou Yang's voice rang out again.

Suddenly, the noise stopped immediately, and everyone craned their necks to look at him, their eyes extremely fiery.

"I know everyone wants the Foundation Establishment Pill, but what I want to tell you is that in addition to using special contribution points to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill, you can only redeem it according to the principles of spiritual root priority and contribution priority."

"Perhaps you don't quite understand what I mean, so let me tell you in detail now. Spiritual root priority means that high-grade spiritual roots can be borrowed from the family in the form of a loan before foundation building, and exchange them for a foundation building pill.

Used for foundation building.”

"Contribution is given priority, so it is easy to understand. In the absence of high-grade spiritual root monks participating in the competition, all middle-grade spiritual root monks under the age of sixty can use 20,000 contribution points to exchange for foundation-building pills. Who can

Collect 20,000 contribution points first, and the Foundation Establishment Pill will be given to whomever can use it first!"

"So now, do you still want to exchange your contribution points for spiritual stones?"

Zhou Yang looked at all the clan members, and from the fiery eyes of those people, he already got the answer he wanted.
