Zhong Yan took the time to go to Yu Qingyao's previous courtyard with Gu Baiyu to solve the Shen family's guards.

Ge Qing, a handsome, white and tender monk.

Cultivation is only the fifth layer of Qi refining, so naturally he can't ask about the Shen family's secrets, but he learned a lot of facts and scandals about the fact that Shen Lanxin has died.

Kill to prevent future troubles.

I don't know if it's a coincidence, the end of Shen Lanxin's death actually brought out the evil cultivators in the city, and there were no more assassinations of monks.

In mid-June, Zhou Yunning led the martial arts warriors to Shizhu Mountain to fight bandits, and annihilated more than 100 bandits in one fell swoop.

Nine of the thirty elite warriors died, and the rest all entered the Zhong Mansion and became the lineage guards.

Life is quiet again.

At the end of July, Zhong Xiaozhong brought news from the city lord's mansion that Qin Ben's original speculation of 'trying prayers in the first few cities to obtain prayer beads' was actually carried out in thirty cities at the same time, and the number of people reached 500 million.

The nation's prayer and prayer bead practice will become a trend and be unstoppable.

However, Qingyang City is not included in it for the time being because it is 'audited by the supervision of the big city'.

Zhong Yan, who has an urgent heart, can't wait to have twice as much time every day and try his best to practice.

Mundane affairs are handled by the family members in the house.

On the side of the Colosseum, he arranged for Gu Baiyu to cooperate with Bai Siyuan to take care of it, and it was thriving.

The affairs related to the monks in the palace were managed by two concubines to assist Yu Qingyao.

His own daily time was divided into three - making talismans, practicing formation pattern carving, and practicing the magic powers, and the arrangement was full.

Occasionally taking time to take care of his wives and concubines and giving them lessons, more times were naturally spent on Yu Qingyao and Yan Sandao, as well as the two newly entered monk concubines.

The value of the mention is:

Su Yunxi and Wen Yongshan, the system rewards are about the same, but they are less than the Ruoyun girl in Feixian Pavilion, that is, Jiang Yunruo, and there is a big gap.

Example:

Jiang Yunruo: [Fire Spirit Root Bonus +39, Wood Spirit Root Bonus +27, Cultivation Experience +45]

Su Yunxi: [Fire Spirit Root Bonus 18, Earth Spirit Root Bonus 19, Cultivation Experience Bonus 15]

Wen Yongshan: [Water Spirit Root Bonus +17, Wood Spirit Root Bonus +18, Cultivation Experience +14]

Aside from Jiang Yunruo's cultivation of special exercises, Su and Wen's lack of time in the mansion is also a key factor.

But Zhong Yan felt that there shouldn't be such a big gap.

Speculating on the back, he realized again that perhaps Jiang Yunruo's feelings for him were deeper than he imagined.

……

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the Spring Festival again.

In the main hall of the first courtyard of the Zhong Mansion, everyone gathered to hold a family meeting.

One by one, they stepped forward to report their work results and progress.

Li Shangwen: "The war in Wei is intermittent and still deadlocked, and more and more monks are involved...... The 150,000 troops stationed in the school field in the northern suburbs of Qingyang City ......"

Zhou Yunning: "The number of people in the battle hall has reached one hundred and forty-five, and there are twenty-four Shadow Guards, including two in the Innate Realm......"

With the support of a large number of precious medicinal materials, demon beast blood and other resources, many well-qualified martial artists in Zhongfu have made rapid progress.

The family members in the mansion have also been greatly improved, such as: Zhou Yunning's congenital sixfold realm, Tang Xiaoshu's congenital quadruple peak, and Yan Sandao's congenital double.

In addition, Jiang Ping and Jiang Huan entered the day after tomorrow, and Zhimei and Zhilan, the two concubines who originally had the acquired realm, also progressed to the later stage.

What's even more gratifying is that Yu Qingyao broke through to the seventh layer of qi refining as she wished and became a late-stage cultivator, but it was not spread out.

There is also Gu Baiyu, the three spirit roots have good qualifications, and when they have the resources, they have also successfully entered the third layer of qi refining.

As for Su Yunxi and Wen Yongshan, their qualifications are poor, and they remain the same, the former is at the peak of the second layer of qi refining, and the latter is the third layer of qi refining.

Zhong Xiaozhong: "Master Qiqi, according to the news from the City Lord's Mansion and Yangquanfang City, the prayer beads are progressing smoothly, and it is expected to increase to fifty cities next year...... In addition, the nun named 'Yuan Zhiqing' was not found in the city. ”

Yuan Zhiqing, the seventh disciple of the Seven Peaks of the Huoyun Sect, has left the sect and descended the mountain, the specific whereabouts are unknown, and the news comes from Huo Donglai.

Zhong Yan had an intuition and suspected that the other party might come to Qingyang City.

However, Yuan Zhiqing is extremely low-key, Huo Donglai didn't get his portrait, he only knew such a name, and he had a first-level realm of foundation.

Zhong Yan nodded and said, "You don't have to spend too much energy on it." ”

If you want to come, you will come to the door.

And now, in less than half a year, the number of monks in Qingyang City has increased from more than 300 in the first half of the year to nearly 700.

Almost doubled.

The reasons are, first, Qingyang City is about to become a big city, secondly, the reputation of the Keqing Mansion is gradually spreading, and then there is the Colosseum, which also attracts many scattered repairs to the surrounding market towns.

But sixty percent of these monks are registered in the Hakka Mansion.

If you examine them one by one, it is quite troublesome.

Dongcao: "This year's total income from silver money is 52,823,24 yuan and 5 li, and the expenditure is 199,700 ......."

Yang Liuer has added two new mundane industries, but it is not yet profitable, so the expenditure is much higher than the income.

Xia He: "As of yesterday, a total of more than 38,600 catties of various demon beast meat, 2,270 catties of demon beast blood, and medicinal herbs and spiritual fruits have been consumed...... First-Order Talisman ...... The total cost of the discount is about 14,976 spirit stones. ”

As soon as this account came out, the hall was quiet and the needles could be heard, and they all exchanged glances.

Especially a few monks, although Yu Qingyao knew about it in advance, she couldn't control her face shaking.

Gu Baiyu and the three of them were shocked in their hearts, and secretly inhaled cold air, such a large amount of spirit stone expenditure was beyond their cognition, and they also realized the great financial resources of the Zhong Mansion.

The main reason is that there are more warriors, and the flesh and blood of demon beasts are consumed a lot, and a large part of the Zhongfu wedding banquet and party expenses are consumed.

However, Yu Qingyao said privately that Zhong Yan spent too much money, and casually gave out dozens or hundreds of spirit stones to make some friendships.

As for the income, it was not said in public.

At the end of the year, Zhong Yan went to Banfang City, sold talismans and earned 1,300 spirit stones, and exchanged Li Henian's remaining part of the spirit materials to harvest 8,000.

In addition, the Colosseum shared 20% of the proceeds, and there were nearly 2,000 spirit stones at a discount, including some prayer beads.

And this is only half a year, you can imagine the future profitability.

Today's Zhong Mansion has begun to take shape, in Qingyang City is in full swing, famous, in addition to the Yang Mansion, it is the second largest family.

After that, Dongcao and Qiuxiang reported on the situation of some women and children in the house.

By the way, the eighth room Zhimei, the ninth room Zhilan, and Xiao Xuening from the Li Mansion became pregnant under Zhong Yan's teaching.

In the end, Jiang Ping briefly said a few words about the general situation in the house, and with a nervous mood, he handed over the 'clan rules' that had been sorted out and drafted to Zhong Yan.

Zhong Yan flipped through the glances, frowned and asked dissatisfiedly, "This is what you spent a year making?" ”
