"I just talked about income, now let me talk about expenses."
"Currently, the family's largest expenditure comes from the purchase of various materials and supplies. This expenditure is increasing year by year. Now it has reached tens of thousands of spirit stones every year, half of which is spent on purchasing third-level elixirs."
"The family's second largest expense is the Fengyue Tower and the maternity subsidy fund. This amount also exceeds four thousand spirit stones every year."
"In addition, it should be noted that the family contribution points distributed by the family every year have reached more than 17,000 points, and the total contribution points accumulated by the monks of the whole clan have exceeded 150,000 points!"
In the meeting hall, the financial elder Zhou Guangyun held the account book and told the Zhou family's financial income and expenditure item by item.
What she said was very detailed and easy to understand, and there was no technical jargon that was difficult to understand.
Zhou Yang followed what she said and calculated, and found that after excluding expenses, the current annual income of the Zhou family actually reached forty-five thousand low-grade spiritual stones!
As soon as the result came out, he himself was frightened.
"Is this the power of the collective? Forty-five thousand low-grade spiritual stones per year, let alone the golden elixir stage monks, just talk about the purple mansion stage monks, even those fourth-level high-grade alchemists and weapon refiners.
Maybe I’m guaranteed to earn so many spiritual stones every year!”
He murmured to himself, his eyes flashing with joy.
There is no doubt that if the Zhou family's income can continue like this, by the time he reaches the ninth level of the Purple Mansion, he will be able to easily purchase spiritual stones such as "Jade Liquid Golden Pill" to assist in forming spiritual objects.
!
"What about the remaining spiritual stones in the family treasury? How many remaining spiritual stones are there now?"
Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Guangxiang with eyes full of surprise and expectation, and asked another more concerning question.
The Zhou family's treasure house is divided into two parts: the inner and outer parts. The outer treasure house stores spiritual objects below the third level, and also stores 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones for the family's daily expenses. The keys are in the hands of Zhou Yang and the financial elder Zhou Guangyun respectively.
The inner treasure house stores third-level spiritual objects and reserve spiritual stones that are part of the family heritage. Only Zhou Yang and Zhou Guangxiang have the keys, and Zhou Guangxiang is also responsible for counting the accounts.
Therefore, if Zhou Yang now wants to know the number of remaining spiritual stones in his family, he needs to ask Zhou Guangxiang, not the financial elder Zhou Guangyun.
"Because some spiritual stones were spent on purchasing the clan leader's Zifu celebration, and 70,000 spiritual stones were consumed to upgrade the spiritual vein level in Fangshi, there are still 214,600 remaining spiritual stones in the family treasury."
Zhou Guangxiang said a number in a calm voice that shocked all Zhou family monks except Zhou Yang.
214,600 spirit stones!
This figure really shocked everyone except Zhou Yang, even Zhou Guangyun, the financial elder.
Although she is in charge of the family's finances, she has not entered the inner treasure house a few times. Every year, the spiritual stones that the family earns from various places will be taken away by Zhou Guangxiang and stored in the inner treasure house after being reconciled to her.
Over the years, no one knew how many treasures there were except Zhou Yang, the clan leader, and Zhou Guangxiang, who was in charge of the inner treasure house.
However, Zhou Yang either stays in seclusion all year round or goes out. The number of times he has entered the family treasure house is really only a handful.
After all, at his current level of cultivation, except for spiritual stones, there is basically nothing he can use in the family treasury.
"Good, very good, very good!"
While others in the meeting hall were still shocked by the numbers reported by Zhou Guangxiang, Zhou Yang had already taken the lead and started shouting.
He looked at everyone with a rosy face and said in a loud voice: "Everyone has heard that the family does not lack spiritual stones or various treasures now, so you don't have to worry about the family not being able to support enough monks in the future.
Just give birth to offspring with peace of mind and raise as many families as you want, and we will never let your offspring live a miserable life again!"
"Also, in recent years, in order to move the family foundation to the Chihu Mountain Oasis and to develop the various spiritual mountains in the Chihu Mountain Oasis, all the clan members have put in a lot of sweat and lost a lot of practice time."
"Since the family's finances are now in good shape, I propose to distribute a spiritual stone dividend reward to all clan members according to their cultivation level. Children at the first level of Qi training and below will each receive 20 low-grade spiritual stones as a reward. For each higher level of cultivation,
On the first floor, you can get 10 more low-grade spiritual stones, and each monk in the foundation-building period will be given a reward of 1,000 low-grade spiritual stones!"
Distributing welfare and dividends to members of the group based on their collective income. This was a normal situation in Zhou Yang's previous life.
But in this world, I don’t know how it is in other places. Anyway, this is the first time I have heard of a family doing this in the world of Immortal Cultivation in the Boundless Sand Sea.
So the monks from the Zhou family were stunned for a moment after hearing Zhou Yang's words.
Is there such a good thing?
There was a hint of disbelief in everyone's eyes. It felt very unreal, and they almost suspected that they had heard it wrong.
Everyone knows that pie will not fall in the sky, let alone those who cultivate immortality.
If these words had not come from the mouth of Zhou Yang, the clan leader, other Zhou family monks would have suspected that he was hatching a conspiracy.
"Isn't this appropriate? No reward for no merit. The things you mentioned, Yang'er, are all things that everyone should do as a member of the Zhou family. Besides, the family doesn't distribute family contributions to everyone according to their cultivation level every year.
Do you want some?"
There seemed to be something wrong with these words coming from Zhou Xuanhao's mouth. After all, he had always supported Zhou Yang.
However, considering that he is currently the oldest monk in the Zhou family, it seems that it is normal for him to say such a thing.
"Dad, what you said is wrong!"
"The family currently has so many spiritual stones in balance, and every member of the clan has a contribution to it. How can it be said that there is no reward for no merit?"
"Besides, the family distributes contribution points as welfare offerings. That is the most basic treatment a family provides to family members. It does not conflict with my current proposal to distribute spiritual stones to the entire clan as a dividend reward. This dividend reward is not
Isn’t it issued every year?”
Zhou Yang shook his head and refuted Zhou Xuanhao's words with a smile.
And when he heard what he said, Zhou Xuanhao also knew that his mind had been made up, but it was hard to say anything anymore.
As for other people, as immediate beneficiaries, who would object to this proposal of taking spiritual stones for free?
They all happily shouted "Patriarch Shengming" loudly, and unanimously approved Zhou Yang's proposal.
"Okay, now let me tell you what I want to say to you at this family meeting."
"The first point is that I plan to set up a special hall in the family, called the Baiyi Hall. As the name suggests, it is specially established for those who have mastered the hundreds of arts."
"The Zhou family monks or the Keqing monks recruited to join the Baiyi Hall, as long as they have some qualifications, can receive free materials from the Baiyi Hall to practice the hundred arts of immortality, and in the future, they can receive a fixed share of free materials to practice every year.
The finished product can be handed over to the family at half price and exchanged for contribution points."
"However, once the family monks who join Baiyi Hall reach the second level of academic achievement, they must complete a certain amount of weapon refining, elixir refining, talisman making, and formation tasks every year. The tasks can be completed in advance for the next year or even the next five years.
It is a ten-year mission, but it must not be completed late.”
"Those who complete the task under the limited supply of materials for the task will receive a certain amount of family contribution points as task reward. If all the materials allocated for the task are exhausted and the task is not completed, individuals will need to purchase materials at their own expense with spiritual stones and contribution points to complete the task.
"
"Of course, if you can still have materials left after completing the task, then the remaining materials will belong to you and the family will not take them back."
"Second point, Guangxiang has done a good job over the years and has lived up to my expectations for him. I want to appoint him as the deputy patriarch of the family to handle family affairs on my behalf. If he can still do this within the next ten years,
If he does well, I will pass on the position of patriarch of the family to him."
"The third point is that now Ying'er is a third-level mid-level alchemist, and the family has also obtained the recipe for the Foundation-Building Pill. In the future, the family can completely produce the Foundation-Building Pill by itself, so members of the tribe should no longer worry about the Foundation-Building Pill.
As for the issue of insufficient exchange of Foundation Pills, I will leave it here. As long as you gather all the contribution points required for exchange, I can take care of enough Foundation Establishment Pills for you!"
Zhou Yang looked at the Zhou family monks in the hall with serious eyes, and said his decision in a deep voice.
These three decisions were all made by him before convening the meeting. After the previous discussion, he made some slight modifications to them.
Now it was thrown out all at once, and it immediately caused a huge wave like an iron ball hitting the lake.
Those Zhou family monks quickly ignored the first point he mentioned, only paid a little attention to the second point, and focused most of their attention on the third point.
The news that Xiao Ying was promoted to a third-level mid-level alchemist was not new. Almost 90% of the Zhou family monks present knew the news beforehand.
But before that, no one thought that she could refine the Foundation Building Pill.
Because of the preciousness of the Foundation Establishment Pill, when many monks think of these three words, they will subconsciously ignore the fact that it is a third-level low-grade spiritual pill, and will only think of its preciousness and rarity.
Furthermore, even though they clearly knew that this was just an elixir that any third-level alchemist could try to refine, the preciousness of the main materials for alchemy also made them choose the third-level alchemist to refine the foundation-building elixir.
Sex was crossed out of my mind.
To refine a furnace of foundation-building pills, if fourth-level demon pills are used as the main material, the total cost of all materials would be close to one hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones.
The cost is so huge, of course, it is only worthwhile to hand it over to a fourth-level alchemist who can 100% make alchemy successfully.
Otherwise, even if a third-level high-grade alchemist can achieve a 90% success rate, if he is unlucky and encounters the 10% chance of failure, it will be equivalent to a waste of nearly 100,000 low-grade spiritual stone materials.
Moreover, it also contains the fourth-level demon elixir, a precious treasure that is priceless and unmarketable in the boundless sea of sand cultivation world!
But now, when Zhou Yang said this at such an important occasion as a family meeting, he was undoubtedly telling all the monks in the Zhou family.
Even at the risk of failure, he will make the Zhou family's foundation-building pill self-produced!
When they thought about his record of killing Luo Yunqing, a late-stage cultivator of Zifu in a one-on-one battle just after he successfully opened the Zifu, the monks of the Zhou family suddenly discovered that the Zhou family's self-produced foundation-building pill was really not a casual comment by Zhou Yang.
Talk about it.
The fourth-level demon elixir for refining the foundation-building elixir is priceless and unavailable, but with Zhou Yang's strength, he can organize manpower to hunt the fourth-level demonic beast like the ancestor of the Chen family did.
In this way, as long as Zhou Yang and Xiao Ying live for one day, the Zhou family really doesn't have to worry about cutting off the source of the Foundation Establishment Pill.
Thinking of this, the entire Zhou family monks in the meeting hall became excited.
