After the word "reform" came out of Zhou Guangxiang's mouth, all the monks in the Zhou family's hall were in high spirits.

As for the reason for the convening of this family conference, before the official start of the conference, the Zhou family monks gathered in Chihu Mountain made all kinds of speculations, and even tried to find out how to inquire about the news from the elder monks and their fellow clansmen.

As a result, of course, they got nothing.

Before Zhou Yang really announced the reform plan, only he and Zhou Guangxiang knew about the plan in the entire Zhou family, and the rest, such as the two of them, Taoist companions Xiao Ying and Liu Xuanxuan, only vaguely felt that they were planning a big thing, and they didn't know the specific content.

So now that he suddenly saw the patriarch Zhou Guangxiang saluting Zhou Yang so solemnly and respectfully, the Zhou family monks in the council hall immediately realized that the real highlight of this family meeting was coming.

Sure enough, as Zhou Guangxiang's words fell, Zhou Yang immediately got up and walked to the main seat and sat down, and then his eyes flashed, and his gaze swept majestically over the eight hundred Zhou family monks in the hall.

Suddenly, all the Zhou family monks in the audience were nervous, and everyone felt that Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the family, was staring at them, and they all lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at Zhou Yang's eyes, even those foundation building monks were no exception.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but nod slightly, looked at everyone with satisfaction and said in a deep voice: "The thing I want to talk about today is a major event related to the prosperity and decline of the Zhou family, a major event that will affect all the Zhou family monks, and a major event that will affect the Zhou family for the next thousand years and ten thousand years!"

"So you all cheer up this seat and listen carefully, hear clearly!"

Call!

The sound of inhalation sounded, and as soon as Zhou Yang's words fell, all the Zhou family monks in the hall couldn't help but take a breath, and then waited with bated breath for him to say the earth-shattering words.

You must know that since the Zhou family held such a large-scale family conference, Zhou Yang had never said such things in such a solemn tone.

Therefore, regardless of those Zhou family monks who participated in this kind of family conference for the first time, some old Zhou family monks who have participated in this kind of family conference many times already know that Zhou Yang's next words must be earth-shattering.

And Zhou Yang didn't let these clansmen wait longer, and after the words fell for a while, he looked at everyone and said in a deep voice the reform plan he had planned for a long time.

"In view of the fact that the family territory is getting bigger and bigger, and the number of family monks is increasing, the original system of the patriarch and the seven elders governing the family together can no longer perfectly maintain the operation of the family, and after careful consideration, this seat decided to split the family!"

"Dividing the family, which means that the bloodline is divided into the main vein and the branch veins within the family, and the descendants of Guangxiang and this seat will be counted as the main vein monks in the future, and the position of the patriarch of the Zhou family in the future can only be held by the main vein monks, and the family inheritance treasure house can only be opened by the monks who have the bloodline of the main vein monks!"

"Lingxi Peak and Red Tiger Mountain will be used as the inherent territorial assets of the main vein, and the income generated only needs to be handed over to the family, and the rest will be owned by the main vein. ”

"As for the branch vein, all the existing foundation building monks of the family can apply to the family for free to establish a branch vein, and obtain a third-order spiritual mountain as the inherent territory of the branch vein, and the income generated by the inherent territory also only needs to be handed over to the family fifty percent. ”

"The founder of the branch can be called the head of the family, and has the same power as the patriarch of the branch to which he belongs, can establish a branch treasury to store all the property of the branch, can establish a branch family elder council to discuss the internal affairs of the branch, can also formulate some family rules that do not conflict with the current family rules, and punish the branch monks who violate the family rules. ”

"It should be made clear that whether it is a main vein monk or a branch vein monk, after having a fixed territory, he will no longer enjoy the benefits of family offerings, nor will he be allowed to serve as the family deacon elder, but after the foundation is established, he can still obtain the status of family elder, obtain the right to participate in family affairs, and continue to enjoy all the rights and interests of family monks except for receiving fixed welfare offerings. ”

"At the same time, if the main vein monk and the branch vein monk find that a new territory is expanded, as long as they continue to hand over the income from the territory to the family, the territory will be protected by the family, and if the new territory is handed over to the family, they can get a large number of contribution points and spirit stone rewards from the family. ”

"Also, the main vein and branch veins are not immutable, any monk who has the bloodline of my Zhou family, as long as his cultivation is promoted to the Jindan stage, he and his descendants can be merged into the main vein, become a main vein monk, and enjoy all the rights and interests of the main vein monk. ”

"Similarly, in the future, after any family cultivator other than the main lineage successfully builds the foundation, as long as he spends 100,000 family contribution points, he can apply to the family to establish a branch line, and obtain the spiritual mountain given by the family as the foundation of the branch line. ”

"Finally, if the main vein monk and the branch vein monk do not enjoy the family welfare and do not join the various halls of the family to receive the family position treatment, they can not be assigned by the family internal affairs hall and the general affairs hall to complete relevant tasks, but if they violate the clan rules or encounter a war, they still need to obey the punishment and requisition of the family law enforcement hall and the war hall. ”

"As for other non-main and branch line monks, the original benefits and positions remain the same, and they can still receive various tasks from the family as usual, and at the same time, they can also receive various additional tasks issued by the main line monks and branch line monks to get paid. ”

Zhou Yang looked down at all the Zhou family members sitting in rows under the stage, and his powerful voice resounded throughout the entire hall.

And his words also exploded like a thunderbolt from the minds of all the Zhou family monks who were unaware in advance, shaking these people's scalps and dumbfounded.

Prior to this, no one would have thought that he, the Supreme Elder who had single-handedly created the brilliant Zhou family, would openly take the initiative to mention the separation of the family in front of most of the monks of the entire clan.

Therefore, after he said these words, everyone was stunned and stupid, and they were stunned and didn't know what to do.

This is true even for the foundation-building monks.

And Zhou Yang didn't urge these people, just patiently waited for them to digest this shocking news.

After waiting for about half an hour, one of the elders of the Zhou family finally came back to his senses first and asked questions.

"Dare to ask Elder Taishang, why is my Zhou family at its peak now, how can you suddenly have such an idea of splitting the family?"

"There are so many immortal cultivation families in our Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm, each family is only afraid that the family territory is not big enough, and the population is not large enough, so they are trying their best to let the family cultivators gather together to achieve things together, once our Zhou family is separated, wouldn't it give those people a chance?"

raised questions about the elders of the Zhou family, it is Zhou Guangqing, who is relatively old among the elders of the Zhou family today.

Zhou Guangqing is also an old man of the Zhou family who has experienced many family conferences, when Tan Qiu, the first generation of the foreign affairs elder of the Zhou family, proposed that he could use Zhuji Dan to attract talented monks from the outside world to join the Zhou family, all the monks of the Zhou family collectively objected to the fact that Zhou Yang vetoed this opinion, and he also experienced it himself.

That's why he dared to stand up and question Zhou Yang's decision at this time, and dared to ask the doubts in his heart.

"Guangqing, these two questions of yours can actually be answered together. ”

"It is precisely because the Boundless Sand Sea Immortal Cultivation Realm has never had such a prosperous family as our Zhou family for two thousand years, that other families have not encountered the bottlenecks and difficulties that our Zhou family is currently experiencing, so they will not have the idea of splitting up. ”

"But what I want to tell you is that any thousand-year-old clan that has been inherited for thousands of years, with Jindan period monks and a large number of Purple Mansion monks and foundation building monks, must have a main vein and a branch vein within their clan!"

"And I want to correct one of your thoughts, the separation of the family will not make the Zhou family weak, but will make the Zhou family more prosperous and powerful over time!"

"You should keep in mind that no matter when, no matter where you are, you are all part of the Zhou family, as long as you have not made a big mistake and have not done anything treacherous, no one, even me, the Supreme Elder, has the right to deprive you of the glory of being a monk of the Zhou family, and deprive you of this surname that brings you glory!"

Zhou Yang looked at Zhou Guangqing with a puzzled face in the audience, and responded to the questions raised in a loud voice.

After he finished speaking, the monks of the Zhou family in the hall were also stunned, and they couldn't help but bow their heads and ponder the deep meaning of his words.

After a while like this, a monk of the Zhou family mustered up the courage to stand up and asked:

"Then dare to ask the patriarch, according to what you just said, the main vein and branch veins will occupy the existing spiritual mountains of the family as their inherent territory, so how should the various treasures that originally belonged to the family on these spiritual mountains and the treasures in the existing family treasury be disposed of?"

"Can we, the non-main lineage branch cultivators who originally lived and practiced on these spirit mountains, have to move to other remote and barren low-level spirit mountains to practice?"

Zhou Yang looked down and saw that the person who asked this question turned out to be the financial elder who had reported on the Zhou family's financial situation before.

From the financial report just now, he found that this person's business level is quite high, and the words he is asking now show that he has a keen sense of smell that ordinary people do not have.

It's a talent!

He nodded secretly in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "That's a good question, what I can explain to you here is that except for the [Ning Yuan Fruit] tree, which is still owned by the family, the rest of the elixir spirit fruits that have been planted and the spirit beasts that have been raised, the property rights of the family within fifty years will still belong to the family, and after fifty years, they will be owned by the main vein and branch veins." ”

"As for you monks who live on the spiritual mountain owned by the main vein branch, the right of residence can continue until your longevity is exhausted or you fall, and your descendants can no longer inherit it, and at the same time, the main vein monks and branch monks are not allowed to settle in other family spirit mountains. ”

"Moreover, the fifth-order spiritual mountains and fourth-order spiritual mountains owned by the main lineage, each spiritual mountain must be divided into ten caves to belong to the family management, which is used for the retreat of some clansmen who need to retreat and break through the realm. ”

"If there are clansmen who must want to live on the spiritual mountain to which the main vein and branch vein belong, they can also negotiate with their own family owners, or use spirit stones and family head contribution points as rent, or work instead of rent, help farm and raise spirit animals in exchange for residency. ”

"There are also those family elders who are unwilling to establish a branch vein after the foundation is successfully built, and they can also establish a cave to settle on any spiritual mountain owned by the main vein and the branch line, which is the prerogative of the family elders. ”

"The last is the disposal of the treasures of the family's existing treasure house, for these treasures, all the treasures above the fourth order will be transferred into it after the completion of the family inheritance treasure house, and their ownership still belongs to the family, but if there is a family monk who wants to exchange it, he can apply to the patriarch for exchange. ”

"Treasures below the fourth order are still stored in ordinary treasure vaults, managed by the family treasury, and the rules for exchanging treasures are the same. ”
