The ninth room master understood that after the division of the sect, each room was farther away than the original, but it was not without benefits. The family property managed by the clan house today is the communist property of each house head at the beginning, and it is necessary to divide the clan, but not to divide the property. Now that the eldest grandson has been caught inside, he has to rely on the second, fourth, and fifth rooms, which are some people in the capital, to pull them, so they follow their thoughts and sell their favors.

The ninth master gritted his teeth and said, "Divide the sect, you can't be stewed by someone." Without this time, there is the next time, which is the division of the sect, isn't it an old ancestor? ”

Shen Qi was extremely disgusted with the sect room, and seeing that Shen Jun had a hesitant look on his face, he immediately responded: "The six rooms also agree to divide the sect, and it is common for the children to divide the family and the tree to divide the branches. A family like the Shen family that has five suits and no clan is also rare, no wonder it is eye-catching. Even if there was no division before, it was just a name, and it was not a personal concern when something happened. ”

The seventh and eighth rooms can also be seen, and the division of cases is already the trend of the times. The second room, the fourth room and Shen Li or if they don't open their mouths, they should be with the fifth room, and the sect room and the third room are not willing to be separated, and the nine rooms and the sixth room, which should have been neutral, are also biased towards the fifth room.

Everyone understands the truth that "it is good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree", but you also know the phrase "under the nest, there are eggs". Regardless of whether Wufang took the opportunity to make trouble, or the Shen family really still had a crisis that could not be seen clearly, now that people's hearts are scattered, it is meaningless to force it.

Shen Liu nodded, and Shen Qin asked anxiously: "If the sect is divided according to Brother Ying's intentions, then how can it be divided, and what about the sacrifice in the future?" Nowadays, there are a lot of side houses in the clan, not everyone is rich, and this part of the people takes care of it? ”

Originally, these were all clan houses that used the income of the clan to subsidize and take care of them, but if the sect was divided and each house took care of each room, wouldn't it become a burden for each house? It's not that Shen Qin is cold-hearted and doesn't recognize his bloodline, it's really that the seven and eighth houses have always been poor, and they are not as rich as other houses, so if they really have to make up for the side expenses, it is not a small burden.

When the ninth room master heard this, he also pricked up his ears. This is a big deal, and there are also a lot of people from the side tribe in Jiufang, and Jiufang and Taiye don't want to pay their own money to make up for it.

Shen Ying glanced at everyone and said: "Offering sacrifices and helping students, caring for the elderly and caring for orphans, this is the meaning of the existence of the clan. I suggest that half of the CCP's property should continue to be retained as clan land, and the shortfall should be donated by the people of the clan according to their grades, which can be a rule; It can also be donated by the clansmen to do business and get rich, which is voluntary. ”

If the whole clan property is divided, it will not work, even if it is still a clan, it will be a scattered sand; If it is not divided, then the so-called division will become a joke.

Half of it is on everyone's psychological bottom line; The donation proposed later was not Shen Ying's calculation, but Shen Yuan's message last night.

This kind of donation, which is only a matter of tens or to 100 taels of silver, can buy a good name, and it is only good for the children of the scholars.

There was silence in the room, and everyone was weighing up the gains and losses.

I have to say that Shen Ying's proposal meets the psychological expectations of most people.

Even Shen Hai and Shen Yong, who were in the third room, saw that the division of the sect was the trend of the times, and they were no longer verbose, and began to think about the CCP.

"The patriarch is not in good health, so how will this property be taken care of after the division of the sect?" Shen Yong asked directly.

Shen Ying said: "I propose to restore the ancestral system and elect a person in charge to take care of the family property; manage one person and keep account books; There is one deacon, and the overseer fills the vacancies, and rotates every three years. ”

In this way, the power of the patriarch is divided, and the income and expenditure of the clan property are transparent.

This is not Shen Ying's idea alone, but the ancestor of the Shen family wrote it in the clan covenant back then, but later the descendants were troublesome and discarded.

Originally, everyone thought that even if the clan had a bad reputation and gave up the patriarch, it would fall to the fifth house with a good future, but they didn't expect Shen Ying to mention the "ancestral system".

There are nine rooms in total, and if you choose three heads of houses to take care of the family property together, then everyone has hope.

When Shen Jun heard this, his heart was cold.

Shen Ying's proposal is to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle, so that even if the patriarch will still reincarnate in the clan in the future, it will not be the previous pattern.

There is a set of hooks of "restoring the ancestral system", and each room is already happy to see the division of the sect. There is no need to be restricted and affected by other houses, but they can still enjoy the rights of the clan, who is a fool if they continue to oppose it?

Others are fine, but Shen Qin of the seventh room is full of entanglement, and said: "Brother Ying, the people of the Shi clan donated money to buy property just now, how much do you have to donate this?" ”

It's really that the family of the seventh room is not in Songjiang, even if the three people in charge are elected now, it will not be the turn of Shen Qin, who is the younger generation; On the contrary, it is a matter of donation, because the master of the seventh room is a school official outside, and it is closely related. The seven-room life is tight, and he is really not rich, so he cares about this expenditure.

Shen Ying said: "You can measure the increase or decrease according to the precedent, and enjoy the civil official donating two hundred taels of silver; The second civil official donated 100 taels of silver; The civil official donated 80 taels of silver; The civil officials donated 50 taels of silver for the fourth grade, and the school administration donated 200 taels of silver for each term; Beijing officials below the fifth grade, foreign officials below the sixth grade, donate by themselves, and those who are unable do not donate. ”

"That's too little, isn't it?" Others can't open it, Shen Hu said dissatisfied.

Before the separation of the three rooms, Shen Hu relied on a few brothers to take care of the business, and the monthly expenses were more than 100 taels, but after the separation, he was not good at management, and most of the industry was fooled by He Erye, and now he has to tighten his belt, naturally looking forward to more and more family properties. If you can get a manager, you can't say that you can't make your own profits.

The ninth master also hesitated, and said: "It's less, since it is a child of the clan, it should be mentioned in the clan." ”

The people of the Chushi clan are concentrated in the second, fourth, and fifth rooms, and everyone is also staring at these rooms.

Shen Yuan frowned and said, "Could it be that the children are not the clansmen who are exempt from tax and labor?" Or is it that doubling the donation of silver can remove other responsibilities, and the clansmen can ignore them when they want to? ”

Shen Yong hurriedly said: "If there is a precedent, it is better to follow the precedent." ”

The family property has more than 1,800 taels of silver, and it can't fall into his pocket, but because the relationship between a few taels of silver is stiff, the gains outweigh the losses. Other people's houses may be self-reliant, but the three-room business does not rely on the clan, which is the fat in other people's bowls.

Shen Jin was also tired of Shen Hu and the greed of the ninth master, and said lightly: "I agree with Uncle Yuan's words, the donation can be doubled, and the obligations and responsibilities can be halved." ”

The other heads of the house saw it in their eyes and understood that if they continued, they would offend people. No matter how much you donate, it's all family property, so what if you have more or less?

What's more, there are children who study in each room, and the silver is set high, and it will be high when it is everyone's turn to donate in the future. And the grade of this donated silver is there, and those who want to donate according to the amount must have five grades of foreign officials and four grades of Beijing officials, and if they really boil to that grade, how can the benefits brought to the Shen family be replaced by a mere hundred taels of silver?

Take the relationship between the Shen family this time, "the mansion Yin who destroyed the door, and the magistrate who broke the family", this sentence is not a joke. There are more than 100 lives in it, and a prefect wants to shirk responsibility, what evidence can't come out? The reason why it couldn't be an iron case, but it attracted the capital Qincha, was just that the Shen family had two more champions among the Jing people, which attracted the attention of the government and the opposition.

Shen Qi hurriedly said, "How much is much?" Fifty taels of silver can buy seven acres of middle field, five acres of upper field, I heard that the Lu family donated more than one acre of sacrificial field, not only the book is on the plaque, and every year in the spring and winter two sacrifices to give its descendants one person to scatter, donate two acres, two people enjoy the gizzard, so as to push. ”

Other people's families donate an acre of sacrificial land, and their children and grandchildren will benefit; The Shen family is only looking forward to donating more, not mentioning any benefits, the clan style is not right, and the people's hearts are broken.

Shen Liu also followed: "That's exactly the truth, this is a donation, not a robbery to help the poor." No one's property is blown by the wind, and donating more or less is heart, which is enough to make the clansmen grateful; If you ask for more, you will be too greedy to fill your desires. ”

Shen Qin said kindly: "That's the truth, this donation of silver is a heart, where is the reason to force people to donate?" ”

The face of the ninth room master was dark, and he only felt that everyone was eating themselves with words and listening to themselves. As the most venerable person in the clan, of course the ninth master does not want everyone to disobey him, but this is an ancestral hall, not a place where he can rely on the old and sell the old.

Shen Hu was indignant and wanted to speak again, but Shen Yong hurriedly pulled him and said in a low voice: "Big brother, think about Brother Zhu, don't offend people." ”

Only then did Shen Hu come to his senses, looking at Shen Yuan and Shen Li, a cold sweat broke out on his back.

Yes, other clansmen don't know when they will ask for a few rooms for officials, but the third room now has to rely on the few rooms of someone in the capital.

For a while, no one had any objections.

The foreign silver is limited, and the ninth master is worried that the half of the family property to be divided will also have extraneous branches, and this thing is only real if it falls into his pocket, and now it is all empty. Shen Lu was detained, doesn't he need money to leave the relationship with the follow-up trustee?

The ninth room master doesn't think that with his old face, he can call for nothing, but with silver, it's different, and he can't say that it is just a good way to resolve the resentment in Shen Li's heart and leave a place for the younger generation to rely on.

"While the Qin Cha has not left Songjiang, let's divide the sect as soon as possible, and let them see the Shen family's peace and security." Jiufang Taiye said.

Now that there are clansmen, Shen Li can ignore Shen Lu's affairs; After the division of the clan, the clan does not interfere in the internal affairs of each room, so what reason does Shen Li have to stand by Shen Lu, a cousin?

Thinking like this, the ninth room master was a little urgent.

Although the heads of the sixth, seventh, and eighth rooms felt that the master of the ninth room took the Shen family too seriously, and did not know that Qin Cha had the kung fu to take care of the affairs of the Shen family, but they also felt that it was better to be early, so they also responded one after another.

Shen Yuan, Shen Jin, and Shen Ying did not rush to express their position on behalf of the second, fourth, and fifth rooms, but looked at Shen Jun, the spokesperson of the sect.

Shen Jun only had a wry smile on his face, and now that he wanted to stop it, he could stop it.

Compared to the fact that the clansmen really turn against each other and attack each other, it seems that the division of the clan is not unacceptable. Maybe sometimes, you should be far away to avoid suspicion.

"Then let's divide it tomorrow, and invite Second Uncle Yuan and Sixth Brother Li to come forward, and ask His Holiness to come over and testify." Shen Jun sighed secretly and said in a deep voice.

Friends who like the wang clan can rest assured, this book will not be a eunuch, the reason why the new book is opened is because Daming has put it down for too long, the author is stuck in the plot, and the writing is not smooth, plus this book is not subscribed, there are few readers, and the author also has to support his family; Opening a new book and using a new book to support the old book is the author's responsibility to the old book, if it is really irresponsible, it is not impossible to do it at the end of the outline of a chapter, right? When the plot is on the street here, it will be even faster.

Everyone scolds casually under the wang family, please don't go to the new book area to criticize the author, the scolding post will be deleted in the future, and it will not be good for everyone to cut off the author's livelihood. Pleading, thank you for your support.
