"The contribution point of the family is the standard for measuring the contribution of the descendants of the family to the family business, in short, you can understand the family contribution point as a special currency that only circulates between the descendants of the Zhang family and the family in Huaiyuantang, when you make the corresponding contribution to the family business, you will get the corresponding family contribution points, these contribution points, can be exchanged for the corresponding family resources, these family resources are only open to family members, generally speaking, they are things that you can't buy outside with gold coins!" The secretary of the Zongren Pavilion answered Zhang Tie's question in a few words.
"Can I use my contribution points to get secret skills?" This is the question that Zhang Tie is most interested in.
"Of course, this is just a small use of the family's contribution points, the first time you come to Huaiyuantang, you probably don't know how important the family's contribution points are, and you will understand later!"
"Then how do you get the family's contribution points?"
"This is not something that can be clearly explained in one sentence, the family has strict regulations and systems for obtaining contribution points, for example, people like me who serve the family business in the Zongren Pavilion can also get three family contribution points every month in addition to the daily salary! For example, those women who can give birth to the Zhang family after marriage, for each child they give birth to, in addition to a one-time subsidy of eight gold coins, they can also get fifteen family contribution points! β
If a woman has more children, she can get family contribution points, as well as gold subsidies? Only then did Zhang Tie understand why this family was able to display more than 200,000 direct bloodlines in just a few hundred years, which was simply how glorious it was.
"Don't know if there's anything else?" Thinking that his parents were in Jinhai City, Zhang Tie couldn't wait to go back.
"There is one more thing that needs to be told to you, because you have never been exposed to orthodox family education before, and you have been outside the family system, in the process of your upbringing. The clan has never helped you much, so even if you return to the clan now, you will have quite a lot of autonomy! β
"What do you mean?"
"It means that the rights and obligations of the family and you are equal, in the entire Huaiyuan County, a young man like you in the Zhang family, who has just graduated from school, is now generally practicing everywhere, serving the family at the same time, but also learning to improve his skills and abilities. Those young people who have awakened a kind of ancestral bloodline are all concentrated in the family's hidden dragon hall at the moment, and for other young people, those who have been cultivated by the family since childhood, if they have awakened the ancestral bloodline. Entering the Qianlong Hall is mandatory, and it is mandatory. And for you. You can choose to go in or not! β
Huaiyuan Hall is the name of the family, and Qianlong Hall is an institution within the family, an institution like the Zongren Pavilion, although the names of these two have the word "Tang", but they are obviously not the same thing. Qianlong Hall, just by listening to the name, you can roughly know the nature of this institution.
"Do you need to obey the orders of the family when you enter the Qianlong Hall, you will lose a lot of personal freedom!" Zhang Tie asked.
"Yes. The Qianlong Hall is a quasi-military institution, where you will not only lose a lot of personal freedom, but also often perform a lot of dangerous family tasks that ordinary people of your age cannot complete, the casualty rate of the children of the family who enter the Qianlong Hall to receive training is 2o%, that is, there are ten people who enter, and only eight people can come out of the Qianlong Hall alive in the end! β
When this officer said this, Zhang Tie's eldest brother looked at Zhang Tie a little anxiously, and there was some worry in his eyes, for fear that Zhang Tie would agree to go in.
"Then what's the benefit of entering the Hidden Dragon Hall?" Zhang Tie asked quietly.
The officer smiled and nodded, as if Zhang Tie didn't shake his head immediately when he heard the previous paragraph, and calmly asked this question, "In the Qianlong Hall, there are the most opportunities to obtain the family's contribution points, where you can enjoy the family's many high-quality resources, learn a variety of family secrets and combat skills, and there, you can also broaden your horizons and exercise your abilities, and those who can come out of the Qianlong Hall alive can basically grow into a talent who stands alone in the future. They are all the future elites and pillars of the family! β
Zhang Tie smiled, "I chose to join the family's Qianlong Hall......
Hearing Zhang Tie's statement, Zhang Yang suddenly stood up from the chair excitedly, wanted to say something, and after looking at the officer next to him, he endured it again.
"The headquarters of Qianlong Hall is located on Qianlong Island, if you want to go, then report on Qianlong Island on your own next Monday, that is, December 5th, if it is outdated, it will be regarded as your automatic abandonment!"
"Do I need to bring any proof?"
"No, you just need to take this card of yours with you!"
β¦β¦
Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang had just left the building of the Zongren Pavilion, and Zhang Yang, who had been silent, couldn't help but ask Zhang Tielai, "Do you know how worried your mother and father were about you when you were in the Iron Blood Camp, for fear that you would have three strengths and two weaknesses, this time you can obviously choose for yourself, why do you want to join Qianlong Hall?" β
Zhang Tie looked at Zhang Yang seriously, "Brother, if the Terran Holy War really breaks out in the future, do you think it will be easier to survive such a catastrophe by relying on the strength of our own family or relying on the strength of Huaiyuantang?" In a situation like our family, you and I can't both be separated from the family system of Huaiyuantang, nor can both of us fall into it, it's best to take care of all aspects like now! Zhang Tie patted his brother on the shoulder, "Don't worry, brother, I'm fine in the Iron Blood Camp, and now it's fine!" β
After thinking for a while, Zhang Yang finally nodded, "Then when you return home today, don't talk about entering the Qianlong Hall, don't let your parents worry about it, and wait until you leave in two days!" β
"Okay!" Zhang Tie nodded and looked at both sides of the street, "How can we go back and take the train?" β
"There's something more convenient than taking the train!" Zhang Yang was already waving on the side of the street, and then Zhang Tie saw a small car coming from a distance stop in front of the two people. Zhang Yang beckoned Zhang Tie to get into the car, Zhang Tie didn't expect that the car here could stop like the carriages of Brape and Black Flame City.
"Where are you going?" The driver of the car in uniform asked the two people who were sitting in the back seat of the car.
"Jinping City!"
"Jinping City is a total of two hundred and forty kilometers away from Yiyang City, and it takes three hours to get there, and it takes me six hours to go back and forth, so it will take twelve silver coins!"
"No problem!" Zhang Yang directly paid the driver first.
The driver who collected the silver coins drove away.
"What kind of car is this?" Zhang Tie, who was sitting in the car, asked Zhang Yang curiously.
"Taxi car. Isn't it convenient? β
Zhang Tie nodded, thinking, it is really a prosperous place, and even cars can be rented......
"I know you're coming back tonight, and my mom has made your favorite meal at home, so I'm waiting for you!"
Zhang Tie's nose was slightly sour, "Okay, let's go back!" β
β¦β¦
Less than ten minutes after Zhang Tie and Zhang Yang left the Zongren Pavilion, the elders who were meditating in the Huaiyuan Hall Ancestral Hall, which was usually the forbidden place of the Zhang family, in the inner city of Yiyang City, knew Zhang Tie's choice.
"I didn't expect this kid to have a good temperament, and he could take the initiative to choose to enter Qianlong Hall. It's a makeover! One of the elders spoke, nodding slightly as he spoke.
"According to family intelligence, this kid is also a fierce general in the Norman Empire's Iron Blood Battalion, and he can even win the Iron Blood Medal in the Iron Blood Battalion, and he must be a murderer on the battlefield!" Another elder said. "Although the opponent is just an ordinary legion of the Sun God Dynasty, it is only a third-rate commodity. But there can be this achievement. It is also extraordinary, and the qualifications are acceptable! β
"It's just a little too, this son is in Black Flame City, and he actually broke the body of more than 80 alien women of the Rose Society within a week, which is ridiculous. Fortunately, there is no secret knot, otherwise I don't know how many hands and feet Fei Zongrentang will have to do this time! β
"This is a small section, who is young and not romantic!" An old man laughed, "He has this energy and hobby." The body awakens the ancestral bloodline, and in the future, if it is not good, you can give him a few more wives and concubines, so that he can do his best to continue the family bloodline on the bed! β
"Good!" Several of the surrounding elders touched their snow-white beards and nodded seriously.
If Zhang Tie knew that in the hearts of the elders of Huaiyuan Hall, he could be treated with a family stallion spare tire at the worst, he really didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"The matter of his father Zhang Ping seems to have been handled lightly this time, and if he lets it go so easily, it will inevitably be followed in the future!" Some elders still seem to be haunted by letting Zhang Tie's father go.
"Zhang Ping faked his death and eloped, although it violated the family law, but his crime did not hurt nature and reason, nor was it an unforgivable crime, and the impact of danger was small, even if Zhang Ping was imprisoned for a hundred years, what benefit would it have with the family? The family has also had a precedent of turning merit into a crime before, not for him to deliberately open an exception to deal with it, then everyone has a deep understanding of the wonders of "Zhu Xin Shen Arithmetic" these days, and I don't say that the elders also know that the effect of the enlightenment skill of cultivating spiritual power is of great benefit to the future development of the family, if someone learns from Zhang Ping in the future, as long as he can scoop out something that is comparable to the value of "Zhu Xin Shen Shu" after he is caught, even if he is exempted, there are a few more people like Zhang Ping, Then it's difficult for our Huaiyuantang to prosper or not! "This elder who spoke was the sixth uncle who brought Zhang Tie's family back from Black Flame City, and the sixth uncle was in charge of the Zongren Pavilion, and he himself was also from the Jinhai City lineage of Huaiyuan Hall.
"The elders have already made a decision on this matter, so let's just leave it at that, and don't mention it again in the future!" One of the elders smiled and looked at the two elders who had just spoken, and said gently, "The intention of the two elders is to consider the long-term of the family, but in this eventful season, the survival and growth of the family is the first consideration!" β
The two elders who had just spoken looked at each other and nodded.
"Recently, there have been many abnormal changes in Weiyi 6, and we need to prepare for this as early as possible......
"Every time before the advent of the Holy War, the puppet lackeys that the Demon Race has to make waves in the Terran Race, and the maximum amount of Cheng DΓΉ consumes the overall strength of the Human Race, so that the Terrans are suspicious of each other and cannot unite in internal fighting, this time, I don't know how many people will become victims of the Demon Race stirring up the situation before the Holy War comes, alas......" An elder let out a long sigh. (To be continued......)
