No one raised any objections, so Wang Daoyuan continued: "In addition to clarifying the responsibilities of each elder, we also need to classify the elders.
To manage family affairs, elders need to have strong management skills, which not every elder can possess.
For example, the second brother has now reached the peak of Qi training and has become the family elder.
But he is only suitable for fighting, not for managing family affairs.
Such elders serve as honorary elders and have the treatment and status of elders. They can also participate in decision-making on family affairs, but they do not manage all aspects of affairs.
Honorary elders can also serve as stewards under other elders and receive both the benefits of an elder and a steward.
This is also the next suggestion I want to make. Treatment is divided into two categories.
One is title treatment, and the other is authority treatment.
Let’s take the second brother as an example. He is an elder, so he enjoys the title and treatment of an elder. But if he does not manage various affairs, then he does not have the authority and treatment of an elder.
If he manages a certain mine, he will be treated as a mine manager.
There are so many reforms regarding the elders. This is the framework of family power and the most important rule.
Once this framework is set up, it will be much easier to implement other reforms within this framework.
If the elders have no objections, then the duties of the elders will be assigned again."
Wang Daoxing stood up and asked: "Seventh brother, you have been mentioning me for a long time, and I just want to ask, what is the elder's salary?
You also know that I know nothing except fighting skills, so it is not easy to earn some spiritual stones."
Wang Daoyuan asked: "How much does the family elder's monthly gift currently cost? I have never received the elder's monthly gift, so I really don't know this."
The finances have always been managed by the great elder. Uncle Jiu replied: "Currently, the elder of the family receives twenty spiritual stones per month, the great elder receives thirty, and the clan leader and the supreme elder both receive fifty.
The tribesmen who guard various industries are ten pieces, and the spiritual talisman master, alchemist, spiritual planter, etc. all have extra commissions."
"The family's current income should be much higher than when I first came out of the mountain, right? I remember that at that time, the family's total annual income was only about 20,000 spirit stones." Wang Daoyuan asked.
Uncle Jiu was very familiar with these things and said without thinking: "A lot of property has been added over the years, especially the spiritual objects you found, which have created a lot of value.
As well as the food you created, Zuixianlou’s business is also very good.
Especially with the addition of Green Liuzhou's financial path, the family's total annual income now reaches more than 40,000 spirit stones.
However, the Forbidden God Silkworm has reproduced for two generations.
The previous cocoons were not used for spinning, but were all used for reproduction.
Currently, the scale of the Forbidden God Silkworms is large enough, and this generation can already be used to draw silk.
It's just that the planting scale of Baiyu Lingmulberry is increasing slowly. The mulberry saplings cultivated by cuttings have a slow growth rate and low grade. They are not enough to feed the Forbidden God silkworms, which limits the scale of the Forbidden God silkworms.
If there are no problems in the external environment, in the next few decades or even hundreds of years, the scale of the family's sericulture industry will become larger and larger, and the income it will bring will become bigger and higher."
The kind of mulberry found by Wang Daoyuan is called Baiyu mulberry, so named because the color of the mulberry is like white jade.
Wang Daoyuan pondered for a moment and said: "Since the family's income has increased, then the original treatment will be directly classified as title treatment.
In addition, the number of authority benefits and title benefits is the same.
The treatment of clan leaders and supreme elders will be doubled.
In the future, when the family's income increases, the salary will be gradually increased.
This is all about the elders’ reform. What are the opinions of the patriarch and the elders?”
In fact, such reforms enhance the power of all elders.
The previous great elder seemed to have great power, but he was tied up with daily trivial matters and had no time to exercise his power.
All powers, big and small, are in the hands of the great elder, and other elders do not have much power at all.
Those who have power have no time to take care of things, and those who have time to take care of things have no power.
Now that the powers are separated, the elders and clan leaders can control the larger ones and let go of the smaller ones. They have stronger control over the family, and other elders also have the power to manage affairs.
In addition, the salary of each elder has been improved, and everyone has no objection.
The patriarch smiled and said: "Since everyone thinks what Dao Yuan said is reasonable, then I will make a decision and decide that the family will start reforming.
Daoyuan presides over reforms that involve all aspects of the family, so he must have power in his hands.
It's definitely not possible to just provide suggestions for family reform.
Let's do this. The family has a punishment elder. If a clan member makes a mistake, it will be dealt with by the punishment elder.
Daoyuan has made great contributions to the family, but it is a pity that he is a junior and cannot directly serve as the supreme elder.
Then don't be a reform elder, and temporarily serve as a punishment elder to preside over reform matters. His status is the same as that of the Supreme Elder, and he has the authority to govern other elders except the Supreme Elder.
This was only when Daoyuan himself served as the punishment elder. He had this power. The successor punishment elder could only manage the clan members who made mistakes.
Okay, this matter is settled and my task is completed.
I don’t care about the appointment of the various elders below.”
After that, he took out a few books and a few jade slips from his storage bag, handed them to Wang Shouye and said: "Shouye, the family's income and expenditure account books, various industries and the status of each clan member are all here.
From now on, you are the clan leader."
Everyone stood up together, saluted Wang Shouye and said, "See the clan leader."
He saluted Wang Zhian again and said, "See the Supreme Elder."
Wang Zhian stood up and said: "From now on, the family affairs will be left to you."
After that, walk out of the meeting hall.
Everyone saluted in unison and said, "Best regards, the Supreme Elder."
Wang Shouye has been trained as the heir to the patriarch for decades, and he has no difficulty in exercising the power of the patriarch.
He sat on the main seat of the meeting hall and said: "The following is the division of powers of various industries and the appointment and removal of elders.
Daoyuan, please continue talking and let's discuss it together."
Wang Daoyuan continued: "My idea is to manage the various properties of the family separately, and set up a hall for each property, which will be managed by the elders.
Ling Zhi Tang manages the planting, harvesting, and management of all spiritual plants in the family.
The elixir hall manages elixir refining and elixir storage affairs.
The Spirit Talisman Hall manages the production of spiritual ink and talisman paper, as well as the refining of spiritual talismans.
The Mine Hall manages all mines and forest farms. This is more complicated and can be detailed later.
The Transportation Hall manages all family soul ships, as well as the transportation of goods and people.
The Merchant Hall manages the operations of the family's various stores.
The Finance Hall manages the family treasury, the income and expenses of all spiritual stones, and the operating status of each industry, and must also report to the Finance Hall.
Punishment Hall, management, punishing clan members who make mistakes.
The last one is the guard hall. The various properties of the family need to be guarded by people with high combat power.
In the past, the people who guarded each property also managed the daily affairs of each property. In the future, they will be separated.
The guard is responsible for the safety inspection of various industries. If monsters or casual cultivators attack the family property, the guard is responsible for protecting it.
The affairs and management of various industries are the responsibility of other halls, and the clan members who guard each industry are not allowed to interfere.
These are the only things I can think of. If you elders have anything to add, you can put it forward.
In the future, as the family business expands, additional halls may be added.
In addition, each Tangtang is also responsible for the training of the family's children. Whatever talents the clan members have, they can be handed over to the corresponding Tangtang to manage and cultivate their abilities.
In the future, when there are more clan members, we can also set up a Baiyi Hall to teach minor clan members to practice the Baiyi Arts."
