Chapter 430

After the word "reform" was spoken by Zhou Guangxiang, all the monks in the Zhou family's deliberation hall were refreshed.

As for the reason for the convening of the family meeting, before the meeting officially began, the Zhou family friars gathered in Chihu mountain made all kinds of guesses, and even tried to find out the news from the elders and friends.

Of course they got nothing.

Before Zhou Yang really announced the reform plan, only he and Zhou Guangxiang knew the plan. The rest, such as their Taoist partners Xiao Ying and Liu Xuanxuan, just vaguely felt that they were planning a major event and didn't know the specific content.

So now I suddenly saw the patriarch Zhou Guangxiang salute Zhou Yang so solemnly and respectfully and say these words. The friars of the Zhou family in the hall of assembly immediately realized that the real highlight of the family assembly was coming.

Sure enough, as Zhou Guangxiang's words fell, Zhou Yang immediately got up, walked to the main seat and sat down. Then his eyes flashed and his eyes swept over the 800 monks of the Zhou family in the hall.

At that time, all the friars of the Zhou family were worried. Everyone felt that Zhou Yang, the ancestor of the family, was staring at himself. They all lowered their heads and dared not look at Zhou Yang's eyes. Even those friars who built the foundation were no exception.

Seeing this, Zhou Yang could not help nodding slightly, looked at the people with satisfaction and said in a deep voice: "what we want to say 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 friars and affect the Zhou family for thousands and thousands of years in the future!"

"So you all cheer up and listen carefully and clearly!"

Hoo!

There was a sound of breathing in. As soon as Zhou Yang's words fell, all the friars of the Zhou family in the hall couldn't help taking a breath, and then waited for him to say the earth shaking words.

You know, since the Zhou family held such a large family meeting, Zhou Yang has never said such words in such a solemn tone.

So those friars of the Zhou family who participated in this family meeting for the first time, regardless of whether some old friars of the Zhou family who participated in this family meeting many times, already know that Zhou Yang's next words must be earth shattering.

Zhou Yang didn't let these people wait. After the voice fell for a while, he looked at the people and spoke out his long planned reform plan in a deep voice.

"In view of the increasing territory of the family and the increasing number of family friars, the original system of the patriarch and seven elders governing the family can no longer perfectly maintain the family operation. After careful consideration, we decided to separate!"

"Separation means that the family is divided into main and branch veins based on blood. Guangxiang and the descendants of this seat will be included in the main vein friars. In the future, the position of clan leader of the Zhou family can only be held by the main vein friars. Only friars with the main vein friars' blood can open the family inheritance treasure house!"

"Lingxi peak and Chihu mountain will be the inherent territorial assets of the main vein. Only 30% of the income generated needs to be handed over to the family, and the rest belongs to the main vein."

"As for the branch, anyone who is an existing foundation building friar of the family can apply to the family for establishing a branch free of charge, and obtain a third-order Lingshan as the inherent territory of the branch. Similarly, only 50% of the income generated by the inherent territory needs to be handed over to the family."

"The founder of the branch can be called the head of the family. He has the same power as the head of the family. He can establish a branch treasure house to store all the property of the branch, establish a branch family Presbyterian Council to jointly discuss the internal affairs of the branch, and formulate some family rules that do not conflict with the current family rules of the family to punish the branch friars who violate the family rules."

"It needs to be clear that no matter the main friar or branch friar, after having a fixed territory, they will no longer enjoy the benefits of family worship, nor can they take up the position of family deacon elder. However, after building the foundation, they 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 friars except receiving fixed welfare worship."

"At the same time, if the master and branch friars discover the expansion of a new territory, as long as they continue to hand over the territory's production income to the family, the territory will be protected by the family. If they hand over the new territory to the family, they can obtain a large number of family contribution points and spirit stone rewards."

"In addition, the main vein and branches are not invariable. Any friar who owns the blood of our Zhou family can be incorporated into the main vein, become the main vein Friar and enjoy all the rights and interests of the main vein friar as long as his cultivation level is promoted to the golden elixir period."

"Similarly, after any family friar other than the main vein has successfully built a foundation, he can apply to the family for establishing a branch as long as he spends 100000 family contribution points, and obtain the Lingshan given by the family as the branch foundation."

"Finally, if the main and branch friars do not enjoy family welfare offerings and do not join each hall of the family to receive family position treatment, they can not be assigned by the family internal affairs hall and the common affairs hall to complete relevant tasks. However, if they violate family rules or encounter war, they still need to obey the punishment and recruitment of the family law enforcement hall and the war hall."

"As for other non main and branch friars, the original benefits and duties remain unchanged, and they can still receive various family tasks as usual. At the same time, they can also receive various additional tasks issued by main and branch friars for remuneration."

Zhou Yang looked down at all the Zhou family people sitting in rows under the stage, and his powerful voice resounded through the whole conference hall.

And his words, like a thunder, suddenly exploded from the minds of all the uninformed friars of the Zhou family, which shocked them and stunned them.

Before that, no one expected that he, the supreme elder who created the brilliant Zhou family, would openly mention separation in front of most of the monks of the whole family.

Therefore, after he said these words, everyone was stunned and dumbfounded. They didn't know what to do.

Even those friars in the foundation period are the same.

Zhou Yang did not urge these people, but waited patiently for them to digest the shocking news.

After waiting for about half an hour, an elder of the Zhou family finally came back and asked questions.

"I dare to ask the elder, why do you suddenly have this idea of separation when our Zhou family is in its heyday?"

"There are so many immortal families in the boundless Shahai fairy world. Each family is afraid that the family territory is not large enough and the population is not large enough. They all try their best to get the family friars together and make things together. Once our Zhou family is separated, don't they give those people a chance?"

The elder of the Zhou family is Zhou Guangqing, who is older among the elders of the Zhou family.

Zhou Guangqing is also an old man of the Zhou family who has experienced many family meetings. When Tan Qiu, the first generation foreign affairs elder of the Zhou family, proposed that he could use Jidan to attract talented monks from outside to join the Zhou family, all the monks of the Zhou family objected collectively, resulting in Zhou Yang's veto of this opinion. He also experienced it personally.

That's why he dared to stand up and question Zhou Yang's decision and his doubts.

"Guangqing, you can answer these two questions together."

"It is precisely because there has never been a prosperous family like our Zhou family in the boundless shahaixiu fairyland in 2000 years that other families have not encountered the bottlenecks and difficulties our Zhou family has encountered, and they will not have the idea of separation."

"But what I want to tell you is that any Millennium clan with thousands of years of inheritance and a large number of Jindan friars, purple house friars and foundation building friars must have main and branch veins!"

"And I want to correct your idea that separation will not weaken the Zhou family, but will make the Zhou family more prosperous and powerful over time!"

"You should keep in mind that no matter when and where you are located, you are all members of the Zhou family. As long as you have not made great mistakes and done great evil against the family, no one, even my supreme elder, has the right to deprive you of the glory of being a monk of the Zhou family and the surname that brings you glory!"

Zhou Yang looked solemnly at Zhou Guangqing, whose face was full of confusion, and his loud voice responded to his questions.

After he said these words, the friars of the Zhou family in the hall were stunned. They couldn't help but bow their heads and meditate on the meaning of his words.

After a while, a friar of the Zhou family summoned up the courage to stand up and asked:

"I dare ask the clan leader, according to what you just said, the main and branch veins will occupy the existing Lingshan mountain as the inherent territory of the family. What should be done with the various treasures originally belonging to the family on these Lingshan mountains and the treasures in the existing family treasure house?"

"Can we non main and branch friars who used to live and Practice on these spiritual mountains only move to other remote and barren low-level spiritual mountains to practice?"

Zhou Yang looked down and saw that the person who asked the question was the financial elder who had previously reported the financial situation of the Zhou family.

From the financial report just now, he found that this person's business level is quite high. His words now show that he has a keen sense of smell and thinking 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 that the spirit of the [Ningyuan fruit] tree still belongs to the family, the property rights of the other cultivated spiritual drugs and fruits and the raised spiritual animals within 50 years still belong to the family, and they will be returned to the main vein and branch vein after 50 years."

"As for you friars who live on the spirit mountain owned by the main vein and branch vein, the right of residence can continue until your life yuan is exhausted or falls, and future generations can no longer inherit it. At the same time, the main vein friars and branch friars can no longer settle in the spirit mountain of other families."

"In addition, for the five level and four level spirit mountains owned by the main vein, each spirit mountain must set aside ten caves to be managed by the family for the purpose of closing down some clansmen who need to break through the realm of closing down."

"If a clansman must want to live on the Lingshan mountain where the main vein and branch vein belong, he can also discuss with his family owner by himself, or use the Lingshi and the contribution point of the family owner as rent, or use work instead of rent to help farm and raise spirit animals in exchange for the right of residence."

"There are also family elders who are unwilling to establish a branch after the foundation is successfully built. They can also establish a cave on any Lingshan mountain owned by the main and branch. This is the privilege of family elders."

"The last is the disposal of the family's existing treasures. For these treasures, all treasures above level 4 will be transferred into the family inheritance treasure house after it is completed, and its ownership still belongs to the family. If any family friar wants to exchange them, he can apply to the patriarch for exchange."

"The treasures below the fourth level are still stored in the ordinary treasure house and managed by the family wealth hall. The rules for exchanging treasures are the same."
