Although the order issued by Zhao Xin poured cold water on the Zhao family, it also gave them hope, and the Zhao family's task publisher became the hottest place, and almost all the Zhao family members came here and waited to receive the task at any time.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Xin immediately released a series of tasks, for the Zhao family, now they need all kinds of resources, and the enthusiasm of the clansmen to complete the tasks can bring a lot of income to the Zhao family.

The Zhao family has gone out to do tasks, but Zhao Zifan has to start planning the next development of the Zhao family, for him, the most important thing is to complete the main task, and this requires a lot of preliminary preparations, so after he rested for a day, he summoned all the high-level officials of the Zhao family to hold another important meeting.

In the meeting hall of the Zhao family, the eight high-level leaders of the Zhao family came together, and when they saw that Zhao Zifan was already waiting in the meeting hall, they hurriedly quickened their pace and came in.

"Head of the house!"

Zhao Xin and other eight high-level officials of the Zhao family clasped their fists and saluted Zhao Zifan.

"No need to be polite, just take a seat. Zhao Zifan waved his hand at them, and made a gesture to Zhao Xin and the others to sit down.

Zhao Xin's eight people sat down separately, and their own subordinates brought tea.

"Family Master, what are the important orders for summoning us over?" Zhao Qingning asked with a smile.

Zhao Zifan said: "This time, the results of the clansmen's cultivation are good, so I want to discuss with you the next trend of our Zhao family." ”

Jiang Ziang said: "Family master, as far as the strength of our Zhao family is concerned, it is no longer a problem to be promoted to a fourth-class family......

"Old Jiang, our Zhao family can't be promoted to a fourth-class family yet. Yang Duoxiu interrupted Jiang Ziang's words.

"Why?" Jiang Ziang looked at Yang Duoxiu in confusion.

Yang Duoxiu said: "The promotion of the family has requirements for the number of clansmen, the promotion of the second-class family to the third-class family, at least 200 clansmen, the promotion of the third-class family to the fourth-class family requires double the number of clansmen, at least 400 clansmen, the number of clansmen of our Zhao family is still far behind." ”

"There's also such a rule, but I didn't pay attention to it. Jiang Ziang sneered.

Niu Dali said: "Your old Jiang is the same as my old cow, who is a loose cultivator, where do you know this, Lao Yang is different." ”

"You're not a casual cultivator right now. Zhao Zifan said with a smile.

Jiang Ziang and Niu vigorously glanced at each other, and both of them had a knowing smile on their faces, joining the Zhao family not only gave them a sense of belonging, but also gave them a new goal in life, which can be described as a new life.

"But Lao Jiang is not wrong, our most important task at the moment is indeed to promote the rank, so the problem of the number of clansmen is also a problem that must be solved. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Zifan pondered for a while, looked at the high-level and asked, "Do you have any good suggestions on this point?"

Zhao Xin hugged his fists and said: "Family master, my subordinates have an idea here." ”

Zhao Zifan said: "Uncle Xin, you just say it." ”

Zhao Xindao: "Other families have many ways to increase their clansmen, such as buying slaves and looking for orphans, but these are not the best ways, and our Zhao family has an advantage over these families, that is, most of the people of the Zhao family are very young, and many of them have reached the age of suitable marriage, and we can increase the number of clansmen by marrying and recruiting sons-in-law." ”

Hearing Zhao Xin's words, Zhao Zifan's eyes flashed with a gleam, this is a good way, for now, it is impossible for the Zhao family to marry outside, and recruiting a son-in-law is a good way.

"For example, the head of our family should also be married. Zhao Qingning said with a smile.

"Second uncle, what do you say, just talk about me. Zhao Zifan smiled helplessly.

Zhao Qingning said: "I'm not gossiping with you, your grandmother has already talked to me about this matter a few times, your parents are not there, I, who is the second uncle, should worry about your marriage, besides, as the head of the family, if you delay getting married, the clansmen will also have ideas." ”

“......”

Zhao Zifan looked helpless, and could only smile bitterly and said: "Second uncle, I take this matter to heart, isn't there no suitable object?"

Zhao Qingning said: "Your grandmother knows that you are still thinking about Fei'er's girl in your heart, but the girl's origin is mysterious, she has been gone for so long, there is no news at all, and no one knows if she will come back, you can't hang yourself on a tree." ”

"Second uncle, let's talk about family affairs now, and I'll talk about personal matters later, and I'll talk about them later. Zhao Zifan could only use the trick of procrastination.

"Head of the family, as the head of the family, your personal affairs are the affairs of the entire family, which cannot be underestimated. Yang Duoxiu said with a serious face.

"Okay, I see, when it's time for this time, I'll think about it. A gloomy look flashed in Zhao Zifan's eyes, and he also wanted to know where Hong Fei'er had gone, and why there had been no news for so long.

Putting away the thoughts in his heart, Zhao Zifan continued: "Two months later, the royal city will hold the Hidden Dragon List Challenge, and the top three Tianjiao will represent the Nogi Kingdom to participate in the Hidden Dragon List Challenge of the Empire......

"Master, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. ”

Zhao Li interrupted Zhao Zifan's words, "The Zhao family sent out so many young and highly qualified clansmen at once, I'm afraid that our Zhao family will become the target of public criticism." ”

Zhao Zifan said: "So my idea is that all the clansmen will scatter to the royal city and participate in the challenge under a pseudonym. ”

Jiang Ziang frowned and said: "This is also risky, the appearance of so many strange high-quality young people at once will definitely attract the attention of some big forces." ”

"The head of the family, my subordinates have a suggestion. Linghu Jian stood up and said.

"Tell me about it. Zhao Zifan looked at Linghu Jian.

Linghu Jian said: "The clansmen who go to participate in the Hidden Dragon List Challenge can be divided into two groups, the first group will disperse to the royal city according to what the head of the family said, and participate in the challenge under a pseudonym, and the second group will participate in the Hidden Dragon List Tournament in the name of the school, and also participate in the Hidden Dragon List under a pseudonym." ”

Hearing Linghu Jian's words, Zhao Zifan nodded slowly and said, "Linghu, you have a good idea, kill two birds with one stone." ”

"The subordinates are also trying to expand the influence of our school. Linghu Jian said with a smile.

Zhao Zifan looked at Zhao Xin and said, "Uncle Xin, our Zhao family's clansmen can also consider selecting a group of students from the school who don't have any background. ”

"The subordinate was about to report this, but he didn't expect that the head of the family had thought of it in advance. Zhao Xin smiled, he had already heard Jiang Ziang and others say that there were a group of good civilian children in the school, and they would definitely be very happy to let them join the Zhao family.
