One month later, Qingluan Mountain, family hall, meeting hall.

"I don't agree with this charter! This is a waste of family resources and special treatment! The family monks should protect the family on their own initiative. What the ten elders do is completely different treatment. In the long run, the clan members will definitely become alienated!"

The second elder, Ling Qiming, pouted his beard, looked at Ling Tianfan with wide eyes and said angrily.

"Second Elder, if giving out meritorious deeds is special, then is it not a special treatment to give out more contribution points and give priority to redeeming rare resources? Isn't it a waste of family resources if Qingluan Guard fully bears the cost of training members?"<

/p>

Ling Tianfan, the tenth elder, retorted plausibly.

"That's different! Contribution points and merit are two different things!" Ling Qiming snorted coldly.

"The meritorious service is just a contribution point with a different name. On the contrary, it can inspire the members of the Qingluan Guard. Why not?" Ling Tianfan argued with reason.

“.…..”

It was the end of the year, and the clan leader summoned all the elders to hold the annual family meeting.

Everyone has already reported on the current situation of the family before, including raising salaries, encouraging childbirth, and other recently passed resolutions, which have also achieved considerable results, making everyone's faces even more happy.

However, when it was the turn of the tenth elder Ling Tianfan to report on the reconstruction of Qingluan Guard, it aroused opposition from many elders present.

Without him, the plan that Ling Tianfan came up with was somewhat unexpected. Whether it was the newly established merit system or the completely new training process, it was too much for everyone to bear.

For many family elders, they value their contribution to the family more, are more concerned about whether they are worthy of the family's cultivation, and are more willing to see the family get better and better with their own efforts.

Because of their blood, they are willing to dedicate themselves to their family, not because of so-called merit.

Of course, this does not mean that they are selfless and do not ask for anything in return.

Although the family has no so-called meritorious service before, the meaning of contribution points is also the same. The family will not treat those who have made meritorious deeds badly, and they will all receive the honor they deserve.

It's just that Ling Tianfan proposed to use meritorious service to quantify Qingluan Guard's contribution at this time, which made them a little difficult to accept. It seemed that his dedication was just for the so-called meritorious service, and his passion was tainted by a mere meritorious service.

"Okay, Qiming, Tianfan, please calm down." Seeing that the second elder and the tenth elder were insisting on their own opinions and refusing to give in to each other, the great elder Ling Zongtu stood up in time.

"Humph!" Ling Qiming, the second elder with a gray beard, sat down panting, not forgetting to express his dissatisfaction.

Ling Tianfan, the tenth elder, also sat down and looked at everyone present with a wry smile.

In addition to the second elder Ling Qiming, the fourth elder Ling Qidan also expressed opposition. Even the third elder Ling Qiyuan, who supported the reconstruction of Qingluan Guard that day, frowned at this time.

Fifth Elder Ling Shihe and Sixth Elder Ling Shifeng, who were originally not in favor of rebuilding Qingluan Guard, now support his plan.

The Eighth Elder Ling Shiqiu also had different ideas from his father and believed that the establishment of the merit system would be beneficial to the development of Qingluan Guard.

Basically, those who oppose it are the older generations of the family, while relatively younger clan members such as the Shi Zi generation and the Tian Zi generation are more accepting.

"The second elder makes sense. Qingluan Wei's new training system will indeed consume a lot of family resources and put considerable pressure on the family's finances."

"The plan of the ten elders also has advantages. The establishment of meritorious deeds can stimulate the enthusiasm of the clan members, attract more talented monks in the clan to join, and develop the Qingluan Guard better."

Seeing Ling Qiming and Ling Tianfan slowly calm down, the Great Elder Ling Zongtu concluded like a peacemaker.

Ling Qiming and others frowned slightly when they heard this. Judging from the tone of the great elder, it seemed that they did not object to Ling Tianfan's plan.

Looking at Ling Qixing, who had been sitting at the top with a calm expression, everyone sighed in their hearts.

Needless to say, the clan leader and others must have seen this plan. The reason why it is discussed at the family annual meeting is because it wants everyone's approval.

They are not really stubborn. Qingluan Guard's new training system is visibly superior to the old one. If Ling Tianfan's plan is followed, Qingluan Guard will definitely become a trump card of the Qingluan Ling Sect in the future.

It's just that it consumes too many resources, and the establishment of meritorious services can certainly promote the enterprising spirit of the tribe, but it may also make the originally united family no longer pure. This is what the elders of the family are worried about.

The clan leader and the first elder had already thought of this after seeing Ling Tianfan's plan.

However, when the family is weak, it can still show its righteousness and let all clan members strive for one goal. As the family continues to grow, various different thoughts will inevitably appear.

At this time, the family needs to provide correct guidance, and the merit system proposed by Ling Tianfan is just right.

Of course, the Qingluan Ling Sect is just getting started, so there is no need to make changes so quickly.

The clan leader and others also want to test it with the soon-to-be-established Qingluan Guard first, and then find a suitable time to promote it to the entire family when there are no problems.

"Second Elder, Third Elder, Fourth Elder, I understand your concerns, but the tide of family development is moving forward. We must make plans when we are weak. Even if we make a mistake now, there is no problem in taking some detours.

.Otherwise..."

Seeing that everyone was somewhat silent, Ling Qixing, the patriarch sitting at the top, said meaningfully.

What would happen otherwise? Everyone knows it.

A small boat can easily turn around. It is better to make a small mistake now than a big mistake in the future.

After thinking for a long time, the second elder sighed quietly: "Chief, I have no objection."

Seeing this, the other elders also expressed their agreement one after another.

Ling Qixing smiled slightly and then agreed:

"The rebuilding of Qingluan Guard will be carried out in accordance with the new regulations of the Ten Elders. However, this matter should not be rushed. We must grasp the appropriateness."

"Yes, patriarch!"

……

After the family annual meeting, outside the cave at the top of Qingluan Mountain for clan members to achieve their realm.

The second elder Ling Qiming looked at the cave hidden by the formation and was speechless for a long time.

After a while, he murmured: "Uncle Eleven, Qiming is already old."

Ling Zongtu stroked his snow-white beard, a smile appeared on his face: "No, it's because the family has become younger."

While the two old men were chatting, a female monk in blue shirt was sitting cross-legged on a futon in the cave.

Look at the long hair tied up high and the ordinary but heroic face, who is it if it’s not Ling Tianru?

It's just that now, she doesn't look as confident as usual, and is staring at the jade box in front of her in a daze.

There, a milky-white elixir the size of a dragon's eye was emitting a trace of spiritual energy.

A Qi-training monk can feel the loosening of the bottleneck just by taking a whiff. What is it if it's not a foundation-building pill?

"Foundation Pill..."
