Chapter 216 New Policy
After a short break, Lin Shihua once again brought up the topic of opening up new ways to earn spiritual stones, allowing the tribesmen to offer their opinions and suggestions.
In the past ten years or so, the number of members of the Lin family has increased significantly. Although most of the members are very young and have low cultivation levels, they will grow up sooner or later.
By then, the family's expenses will also increase. The spiritual stones and resources accumulated over the years may not last long, so it is urgent to plan ahead and open up new ways to make money.
In the main hall, the tribesmen heard what Lin Shihua said, and soon some tribesmen began to express their opinions.
For a time, a large number of tribesmen offered their opinions and suggestions, but most of the opinions were not very stable, but there were also some that were interesting and could be used as a reference.
A cup of tea will pass.
The lively hall gradually became deserted, and only a few tribesmen’s opinions were recognized by everyone.
Lin Shihua was sitting in a high position at this time, thinking about the suggestions of several tribesmen, and exchanging a few words with several generations of tribesmen around him from time to time.
After a while, Lin Shihua stood up, looked at the silent Lin Tianming below and asked; "Tianming, what do you think of this?"
After hearing Lin Shihua's question, Lin Tianming thought briefly.
He probably also knows the family's situation. The current source of income is mainly concentrated in the profit sharing of Luoyunfang City, the profits of Luoyun Pavilion, and the cultivation of elixirs and spiritual materials in several major clan areas.
Among them, Qingzhu Mountain is rich in Qingling Bamboo. Every year, some can be cut down to refine spiritual weapons, and then sold in various shops of the family.
There are also large areas of spiritual materials in Jinjiao Mountain and Jiuhua Mountain, especially the golden flower tree in Jinjiao Mountain. After thousands of years of maintenance by the Jin family, its scale is larger than the Lin family's Qingling Bamboo, and can be produced every year. The profit was more than doubled.
This is why the Lin family attaches great importance to Jinjiao Mountain and sends a foundation builder and more than a dozen Qi Refining clan members to guard it all year round.
As for the spiritual materials in Jiuhua Mountain, the scale is not large. After the Jin family was destroyed, some older double cherry trees were cut down, leaving only some younger seedlings. I am afraid it will take decades to return to their peak state. , thereby generating part of the income.
Therefore, the family has not focused on Jiuhua Mountain in recent years. There are only more than a dozen Qi Refining clan members guarding it every year to protect the few remaining elixirs and spiritual materials.
As the overall strength of the family increased dramatically, it no longer lacked high-level monks like it did at the end of the war. At that time, the family's elites were injured and killed, and suddenly gained a large amount of territory and spiritual land. , the staff was tense for a while, and some time and benefits were wasted.
Judging from the current situation, the Lin family is the only one in the Luoyun Mountains, and the remaining two foundation-building families are simply not comparable in strength. Fortunately, they are all aware of each other. In recent years, the Lin family has followed suit and has not coveted the Lin family. of wealth.
Since the army is now strong, it is also time to properly maintain and utilize the spiritual land obtained by the family. If it is developed properly, it will become a source of income for the Lin family in the next few decades.
Thinking of this, he immediately said: "The method summarized by the clansmen is feasible. In the past, there were not enough powerful people, so the steps should not be too big. Now that it has matured, it is natural to develop and maintain the places that can be used."
“For example, when Grandpa Fifteen and I built huge territories a few years ago, those places with strong aura have developed Come on, just because there is no profit in the short term, it does not mean that there will be no profit in the future.”
“We must follow this method in the territory we control now. As long as the spiritual energy meets the planting requirements, we must use it all. Be prepared in the future.”
Hearing Lin Tianming’s detailed explanation, all the clan members in the hall nodded, obviously very much in agreement.
At this time, Lin Xingzhi also said; "Tianming has already introduced it in detail. I think in addition to resource integration, Luoyunfang City must also vigorously develop."
"Oh?"
"If Xingzhi has any good ideas, you might as well tell him." Lin Shihua was a little surprised, and then asked excitedly.
Lin Xingzhi chuckled and then continued; "I have carefully noticed before that the popularity of Luoyunfang City has been steadily increasing every year. This may have something to do with the stable operation of the city for many years. The bigger reason It’s because the treasures that appear in shops and auctions are obviously more precious and rare that they attract many monks.”
< br>“We can improve the level of the auction items and purchase a batch of urgently needed items from Qianchuanfang City for Qi Practitioners to create an auction atmosphere, thereby attracting merchants and casual cultivators to settle in.”
“ As long as you persist a few times, you will definitely be able to further increase the popularity of the market, and the Lin family will also be able to gain more profits.”
Before he finished speaking, a member of the Xingzi clan not far away said, "We have made suggestions for Luoyunfang City, tried every means to increase the popularity of the city, and even given out some rare treasures, but the profits have to be lost to other families. "Why?"
"It's unfair that they can get more profits by doing nothing." The tribesmen echoed.
After hearing the remarks of these tribesmen, many tribesmen felt that there was some truth in it, and they started asking about the family's countermeasures.
Looking at the noisy scene, Lin Shihua exchanged a few words with several generations of clan members, and then said; "It is not appropriate for our Lin family to work hard. This matter can be discussed with other participating family forces. Fan, if you want to get greater benefits, you have to come up with something good.”
"Based on the overall strength of the Lin family, they must not dare to have any opinions."
Hearing this, a group of clan members agreed one after another. After discussing the details for a while, Lin Shihua announced the matter on the spot. arrangement.
Qingzhu Mountain, Jinjiao Mountain, and Jiuhua Mountain, including large areas of spiritual energy-rich land created through experience, have selected several tribesmen to take charge of rectification. The task of opening up wasteland for each major spiritual land is handled by the team leader in charge. Ten years is the deadline, and generous rewards will be given based on the results of various places.
Half a day passed before I knew it.
The grand clan meeting has come to an end. After half a day of communication at the clan meeting, the family discussed and summarized many things and changed many policies. Most of them were to seek welfare for the clan members and slightly increase some benefits. However, Many regulations were also added to completely eliminate the thoughts of some tribesmen.
Today's family rules stipulate that those who have not broken through the fourth level of Qi Refining before the age of fifty will have their salary reduced by half, and are required to guard the family's spiritual land and be responsible for planting elixirs and maintaining spiritual plants.
Such rigid regulations completely put an end to the idea of those tribesmen who want to wait for death and give up on themselves. If you want to get high salaries and rewards from the family, you must practice as soon as possible. Don't think about breaking the pot and breaking it. Thinking of taking advantage of the family.
Only by taking action can you get the support of your family.
Although this policy change will definitely encounter resistance and opposition from some people, those who oppose it are those tribesmen with low cultivation and poor talent.
They have no right to speak within the family at all. This change has no impact on those clansmen with higher cultivation levels, and has even improved some benefits. Even if these opposing clansmen have any dissatisfaction, they will not be affected by the higher-ups in the family. With determination, we can only let it go.
In the main hall.
As Lin Shihua announced the end of the clan meeting, most of the clan members stood up one after another, clasped their fists and saluted the clan members sitting in high places. After greeting the familiar clan members around them, they slowly walked out. to the main hall.
Lin Tianming, Lin Tianfeng and others did not call to leave. All the foundation-building tribesmen were waiting in place, as if they had made an appointment.
After most of the clan members were gone, they got up and walked towards the elders in high places.
Lin Tianming came to Lin Shikang and bowed to a few people, and the rest of the tribe followed suit.
Lin Shigang and Lin Shihe, who were sitting next to Lin Shikang, looked at the juniors. They nodded with satisfaction and felt excited again.
After calming down for a while, Lin Shihe said; "Tianming, Tianfeng, you juniors have done a good job, and you have not let down us old guys who have half of their bodies buried in the ground."
Lin Shigang looked at Several members of the Tianzi generation on the scene also sighed with emotion; "Yes, looking at this group of talented Tianzi generation clan members, even if I leave now, There’s nothing to worry about.”
“What did the Fifth Grandpa and the Seventh Grandpa say? Without the guidance of your two elders, how could we, the younger generation, practice so fast?”
“Tian Ming vaguely said. I remember when I was eleven years old, I burned down your cabin as soon as I learned the fireball technique." Lin Tianming said with a look of reminiscence in his eyes.
He was very naughty when he was young. He lived in the Qingzhushan tribe since he was a child, and often lived with his grandfather. Therefore, he was very familiar with the members of the Lin family and was deeply loved by them.
After his talent with dual spiritual roots was detected at the age of ten, he was regarded as a thorn in the side of the tribe, so he became mischievous and did many extraordinary things.
"Haha, you were like a monkey when you were young. Every time you went to class to learn the knowledge of cultivating immortals, you were in a state of chaos. In the end, your father beat you up." Lin Shigang smiled. said.
Many tribesmen around him burst into laughter when they heard this. They did not expect that Lin Tianming still had such a youthful past.
Lin Tianming nodded awkwardly. In his memory, he was beaten violently by his father that time. If Lin Shixin hadn't protected him, he might not have been able to get out of bed for several days.
However, from then on, he no longer dared to be so indulgent and devoted himself to cultivation.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but miss the past. When he thought of Lin Shixin's kind face and the fact that these two old people would pass away in a few years, his heart ached. Just as he was thinking about it, one of the tribesmen around him bowed to Lin Shihe and the other two, treating it as an early farewell. After all, the Foundation Establishment tribe members were very busy, and they had to practice and share the tasks arranged by the family. This bow might be Farewell.
The scene at this time was a bit sad. Lin Shikang and others witnessed the whole process. The few remaining members of their clan had a century-old relationship, and they were equally reluctant to let go and helpless. Maybe a hundred years later , several of them also have to experience the same scene.
Half a quarter of an hour later, all the tribesmen left the main hall, and Lin Tianming and Lin Tianfeng, the tribesmen of the Tianzi generation, returned to the Dongfu area together.
With Lin Tianhong and his group of clan members successfully building the foundation, except for his mother who did not choose the new Dongfu courtyard, the rest of them all chose the Dongfu courtyard.
My sister's cave is next door to his, and Lin Tianhong's and others' are not far away. They all gathered together, and the entire Tianzi clan's cave area became completely lively.
After a few polite words with the tribesmen, they each returned to their own small courtyard in the cave.
Lin Tianming entered the secret room directly. He sat cross-legged on the futon, thinking about the next training arrangements.
The past few years have been unprecedentedly dull in terms of his monastic career, and he has spent almost all of them in seclusion.
After thinking about it again and again, the family did not arrange any tasks at the moment. He originally wanted to go out for some training, but the monsters in the Luoyun Mountains had been cleared away, and all that remained were mid-level second-order monsters, and they were not weak. It's still dangerous to go out alone.
There is not much to go to in Qianchuanbo City. There has been no big gathering in the past two years. I only went there to replenish some consumed treasures. There is no point in spending time.
After thinking for a long time, there was no good place to go. I could only continue to practice in seclusion for a year or two, and then refine some second-level elixirs for the family.
Making up his mind, he immediately clasped his hands together, moved the technique for a long time, and slowly entered a deep state of cultivation.
……
Senkawabo City.
In a secret room on the third floor of Luoyun Pavilion, Lin Xingrong and Ye Pinghai sat opposite each other.
Lin Xingrong respectfully poured a cup of spiritual tea for Ye Pinghai, thinking about the purpose of Ye Pinghai's sudden visit.
A few years ago, he learned a piece of news from Lin Tianming. Ye Pinghai planned to visit Qingzhu Mountain in a few years. Now nearly six years have passed. If it was for this matter, the time was right. Get on.
Ye Pinghai chuckled at this moment, looked at Lin Xingrong opposite, and then said, "I came to visit you today because I have something to ask for. I wonder if little friend Lin has heard any news from your son?"
Seeing Ye Pinghai being so direct, Lin Xingrong immediately understood that he was indeed planning to go to Qingzhu Mountain to visit Lin Shikang and ask for something important.
"Isn't it really to attack the golden elixir realm?" Lin Xingrong thought secretly, but everything on his face remained as usual.
When he came to his senses, he didn't hide it, and there was no need to hide it.
Lin Xingrong said; "To be honest with you, Uncle Ye, my nephew has indeed heard Quanzi say that the junior third uncle and his father have been waiting for Uncle Ye to come. I wonder when you plan to leave for Qingzhu Mountain?"
After Ye Pinghai thought for a while, he said directly; "I plan to set off in half a month. If you have anything to bring, please let me take it back to Qingzhu Mountain and give it to your elders."
"Leaving in half a month? That's about the same time."
Lin Xingrong nodded. He had originally planned to go back to the Qingzhu Mountain tribe. This time was not much different from his expected time, but he could go back to the tribe together. It was much safer to have Ye Pinghai with us.
After regaining his composure, he said; "My nephew is just planning to go back to the clan. I wonder if Uncle Ye can take my nephew for a trip?"
"Okay, I have my nephew with me. I’m not alone on the road anymore,” Ye Pinghai said happily.
Hearing the reply, Lin Xingrong chuckled and said, "Then let's meet on the top of a mountain ten miles outside Fang City in the early morning half a month later."
"Well...it's settled."
Ye Pinghai smiled happily, drank the spiritual tea in the cup and stood up to leave. After Lin Xingrong said a few polite words, he quickly stood up to see him off.
The two walked out of Luoyun Pavilion together and watched Ye Pinghai disappear at the corner of the street. He returned to the secret room on the third floor.
In the early morning half a month later, inside the cave in the small courtyard of the Lin family.
After Lin Xingrong and several tribesmen stationed in Fangshi gave a few instructions, they changed their appearance and walked out of the small courtyard of Dongfu and walked towards the entrance of Fangshi.
Outside Qianchuanfang City, Lin Xingrong's figure appeared on the top of a hill.
He stared ahead, and saw a black shadow flying towards this side. It was undoubtedly Ye Pinghai as promised.
Before the people arrived, he hurriedly stepped forward to receive them, then he clasped his hands and said, "My nephew is paying homage to Uncle Ye. You are really on time!"
"You're welcome, little friend, I am. Since I have made an appointment with you, I will naturally go to the appointment on time."
After saying this, Ye Pinghai waved his sleeves and a dark green boat appeared in his hand.
Looking around, the boat is covered with golden inscriptions. Judging from the aura emanating from the boat, it turns out to be a second-level low-grade flying magic weapon.
This was the first time for Lin Xingrong to see a flying magic weapon at such a close distance, and he immediately showed envy in his eyes.
Ye Pinghai chuckled, then struck with one hand, and a magic spell bombarded the boat.
The boat suddenly flashed golden and instantly expanded into a three-foot-long boat hanging in the air.
Looking at the dark green boat, Ye Pinghai said to Lin Xingrong: "This journey of more than two thousand miles will use this Mo Feng spirit boat!"
Lin Xingrong looked excited. He nodded and said, "That's great. With Uncle Ye's flying magic weapon, our journey will be much faster!"
"Well..."
Ye Pinghai responded, then jumped up and jumped onto the Mo Feng Spirit Boat first. Lin Xingrong quickly followed behind him.
The two of them stood on the spirit boat. Ye Pinghai fired a spell from his hand and bombarded the spirit boat.
“Buzz buzz…”
There were several sounds from the Mo Feng Spirit Boat, and then the light flickered and turned into an afterimage, shooting towards the south.
Lin Xingrong stood on the spirit boat. The mountains and river valleys beneath him gradually receded. The strong wind blew his clothes. Feeling the whistling sound beside his ears, he secretly held the Mo Feng Spirit Boat and Zijin in his heart. Let’s start with the carving speed.
The speed of this spirit boat is very fast, not much worse than the purple golden eagle flying at full speed.
According to his estimation, the speed of this Mo Feng Spirit Boat can at least reach about 80% of the Purple Golden Eagle, which is already very rare.
You must know that flying spiritual birds are relatively rare. Some races only exist deep in the major mountain ranges, and the probability of encountering them in the periphery is very small.
The price of a second-grade low-grade flying magic weapon is higher than that of a second-grade mid-grade attacking magic weapon. It is even priceless and has no market. It can only appear in the big market of Qianchuanfang City. Every time Auctions are all sold at extremely high prices.
With Ye Pinghai's worth and cultivation, coupled with his powerful influence, it is not surprising to get a flying magic weapon.
When he came back to his senses, Mo Feng Lingzhou had already carried the two of them flying for more than ten miles.
With Ye Pinghai accompanying him, he didn’t need to worry about safety issues. He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes tightly, and took advantage of this time to practice briefly.
