Tang Zhengqi then said: "Let me ask you, based on your accumulation over hundreds of years and thousands of years, which one of you doesn't have hundreds of thousands of high-grade spiritual stones in your storage bag? Why don't you buy Jiazi Dan for your ancestors, but let a man who has just returned to the family
The little girl spent hundreds of thousands of high-grade spiritual stones to buy Jiazi Dan for her ancestor?"
The clan elders were immediately ashamed. Tang Zhengqi was right. Each of them had more than 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones in their storage bags.
But these spiritual stones have been accumulated by them for hundreds or even thousands of years, and they are still waiting for themselves to use them in the future. How could they be willing to take them out to buy elixirs for their ancestors to use?
"Then, isn't it your responsibility as the head of the family to buy Jiazi Dan for your ancestors?" said the rich man with a blushing face.
Tang Zhengqi said bitterly: "What is the responsibility of the head of the family? I am not the head of the family now. The affairs of the family are now decided by the clan elders. It sounds like I am the acting clan head. In fact, I am just the executor of the orders of your clan elders.
.”
The rich man said: "You also know that you are the executor. It is your duty to buy Jiazi Dan for your ancestors. No matter what method you use, you must complete it!"
Tang Zhengqi suddenly bowed to the elder of the Taishang clan and said, "The total number of spiritual stones handed over to me by the family is only thirty-six thousand eight hundred high-grade spiritual stones, and my own accumulation is less than 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
A clever woman cannot make a meal without rice. Forgive me for not being able to complete the task of the clan elders. In three days, I will buy Jiazi Dan, which costs at least 100,000 high-grade spiritual stones.
Therefore, I am willing to resign from this position of acting head of the family, which has only responsibilities but no rights."
After that, he took out the key to the clan treasury, placed it in front of the Taishang clan elder, then turned around and left.
The clan elders were choked by Tang Zhengqi's words, "Only responsibilities but no rights." All of them felt that they could not vent their anger.
However, what Tang Zhengqi said is indeed correct. Now that the power is in the hands of the clan elders, he, as the acting family head, indeed has only responsibilities but no rights.
After a while, the rich man said: "Although I don't have rights, don't I still have benefits?"
Tang Zhengqi, who had almost reached the door, felt his back stiffen: "This treatment will sacrifice my daughter's interests, so I don't mind." He continued to walk towards the door.
Suddenly, a voice rang in the hall: "Wait a minute!"
Immediately afterwards, an old man who looked to be in his sixties but had electric eyes appeared at the door of the hall and walked into the meeting hall with unhurried steps.
"The ancestors are here."
"I've met my ancestors!"
"Hello, ancestor!"
Only then did Tang Zhengqi realize that the person in front of him was the old ancestor who had been locked up in death. He actually came out. He couldn't help but regret his previous remarks, because he refused to buy Jiazi Dan for his ancestor.
The elder of the Taishang clan hurriedly greeted you: "Ancestor, you have left seclusion. We are just discussing about buying Jiazi Dan for you."
"You sent a message that there is Jiazi Dan for sale, how can I keep a closed door?" After he walked up to the main seat and sat down, everyone followed suit. Only Tang Zhengqi was still standing at the door, not knowing whether to enter or retreat.
The ancestor looked at Tang Zhengqi: "Is this young man the current head of our Tang family?"
"Uh, he's the acting head of the family." The elder of the Taishang clan said quickly, "I just haven't come over to meet my ancestors yet."
Tang Zhengqi came over quickly and knelt on his knees: "The acting head of the family, Tang Zhengqi, has met our ancestors."
The ancestor felt strange: "Why is it the acting head of the family and not the head of the family? Is there another head of the family?"
