Qinglian Peak, inside Zhongping Hall.

Zhou Chun was at the top of the list and personally presided over the family meeting before his Nascent Soul Ceremony.

He has not hosted this kind of meeting for a long time. The reason why he is hosting it again now is because he happens to be free and it is a rare opportunity for all the senior officials of the Zhou family to gather together.

According to his practice of presiding over meetings, this time the clan members responsible for various family affairs reported on the current situation of the family.

Not to mention the number of high-level monks, the number of monks in the foundation-building stage of Zhou Jiaguang has reached 106. Of course, this includes the number of relatives, guests and servants.

In addition, the number of monks in the Zhou family has now reached 967. Counting relatives and controlled disciples and servants, the number reaches 2,466!

This number of people is nothing compared to big sects like Yuelun Sect and Yanyang Sect.

But for a cultivating family, they are truly powerful in numbers and have strong soldiers and horses.

You must know that most of the immortal cultivating families in the world of cultivating immortals will consciously control the number of clan members in order not to bring down the family.

Because family resources are limited, if you blindly encourage births and increase the number of clan members, the family's resources will soon be insufficient.

At that time, ordinary family monks will not enjoy any benefits and benefits, and their lives will be similar to those of casual cultivators. How can they still be loyal to the family and willing to serve the family?

Therefore, a family that cultivates immortals usually controls the number of cultivators in the family, and then selects those with outstanding talents to focus on training, hoping to cultivate strong people who can lead the family to a higher level.

When the time comes, strong men with higher levels of cultivation will take over and lead the family to occupy more resources, and the family will be able to expand the number of monks.

So in a sense, the strength and influence of a family can be inferred from the number of members in a cultivating family.

Generally speaking, the number of people in the Jindan family will be controlled at more than 500 and less than 1,000 people.

By concentrating resources on training in this way, the number of Zifu period monks in the family can reach six or seven, and there are dozens of foundation-building monks.

Of course, this is an ideal situation.

In fact, like the previous Jingguo, due to the outbreak of many wars in a few hundred years, the number of monks who died abnormally increased greatly, and various families frequently suffered heavy losses.

Therefore, both the quantity and quality of family members cannot match the status of the family and the resources it can occupy.

Therefore, after the war, each family tried their best to encourage their tribesmen to have children and increase the number of monks.

And like the current Zhou family, because they are already a Yuanying family, even if the number of members increases to three to five thousand, they can still easily bear it.

After all, there are Nascent Soul Stage monks as backers, and even if the welfare benefits are not improved compared to before, there are still not many middle- and low-level monks who are stupid enough to leave the family.

This is fundamentally different from those small and medium-sized families.

At this time, after listening to the monk's report on the family situation, Zhou Chun also looked at the people in the hall and said slowly: "This family meeting mainly talks about three things. The first thing is to revise the status of family members.

Cancellation of the successful elixir formation will become the Supreme Elder's rule. The future Supreme Elders of the family will only be Zhou Zhengbai, Patriarch Mingde, and Uncle Dao Yi. In addition, the status of the Supreme Elder Luo Qingni of Keqing remains unchanged!"

"In the future, if the family monks want to become the family's supreme elder, they must either successfully conceive a baby, or they must have the golden elixir stage and reach the master level in a certain skill!"

"For the same reason, if you want to become a family elder in the future, you must have a Jindan monk, or a Zifu clan member who has reached the master level in both alchemy and formation."

"The selection criteria for the other core tribesmen and elite tribesmen will also be raised in sequence. Only tribesmen who have successfully opened up the Purple Mansion and established foundations are eligible for selection."

Once these words were said, none of the Zhou family members below had any objections.

The rules of the world of cultivating immortals are like this. When there are monks of a higher level in a force, the status of the monks in the sect must be readjusted.

After all, under normal circumstances, the "Top Elder" is the monk with the highest status in a sect and family.

If Zhou Chun is the only person in the Zhou family who has cultivated to the Nascent Soul stage, then his status as patriarch may be a little more transcendent, superior to that of the Supreme Elder.

But now there is still a fifth-level demon king Zhou Zhengbai, so changes must be made.

As for why Zhou Mingde and Zhou Daoyi were able to rank as supreme elders with their Golden Core cultivation level, it was naturally because they were of higher seniority than Zhou Chun. They had great influence on both Zhou Chun himself and the Zhou family.

contribution.

The other Zhou family monks will not be dissatisfied with this, and they dare not be dissatisfied.

What's more, Zhou Chun also provided another way besides cultivation.

If someone really has outstanding talent in the future and masters the master-level skills with the golden elixir stage cultivation level, he can also become the supreme elder, and his status and treatment within the family will be the same as that of the Nascent Soul stage monks!

After saying this about the first thing, Zhou Chun quickly continued: "The second thing is that in the future, the family will have to re-allocate important resources such as forming pill spiritual objects, assisting in the development of Zifu spiritual objects, and foundation-building pills.

Adjustments have been made, and tribesmen who want to obtain such spiritual objects must first obtain the qualifications for redemption."

"Every three, ten, or thirty years, the family will hold a special family meeting, where clan members with relevant status will jointly review which clan members can obtain the qualifications to exchange these important resources."

"Special family meetings are based on the deliberation and allocation of important resources, and are composed of clan members with different statuses. The three-year small meetings are generally chaired by one or two elders, and the core clan members participate in the review and voting. The ten-year meeting is chaired by three

The elders above will preside over it, and the core clan members will participate in the review and voting. The thirty-year conference will be presided over by the clan leader or the supreme elder, and only clan members at the elder level can participate in the review and voting!"

"It should be noted that at the three-year meeting, the elders can cast five votes; at the ten-year meeting, the elders can cast three votes; at the thirty-year meeting, the clan leader or the supreme elder can cast five votes; at each meeting

The host will announce the number of redemption qualifications issued at this meeting!"

"Before each special family meeting, the family will notify the clan members who are eligible to participate one year, six months, or three months in advance. If you are not interested or have time to participate in the review and voting, you can take the initiative to explain to the family, otherwise it will be deemed as abstaining from voting three times in a row.

Those who abstain will be disqualified from participating in future review voting!"

"Under normal circumstances, any clan member who wants to apply for the qualification to exchange important resources must submit an application to the family in advance before each special family meeting, and then go through the relevant review process by the relevant person responsible for the review.

The tribesmen will determine whether they agree and give them the qualification to exchange."

"The criteria for review should be comprehensively considered from the aspects of qualifications, skills, longevity, strength, personal merit, etc. Clan members who have seriously violated clan rules are not allowed to participate in the application for important spiritual item exchange qualifications. People who have minor violations of clan rules are not allowed to apply.

Clan members will also be punished with one or more rounds of delayed application depending on the extent of their violation of clan rules!"

Having said this, Zhou Chun also paused slightly and looked at the monks of the Purple Mansion period below who had quite a change in their expressions.

Then he continued: "In addition to the above normal channels for obtaining redemption qualifications, there are also some abnormal channels for obtaining redemption qualifications. One is that one has outstanding spiritual root qualifications, such as high-grade spiritual root qualifications, and can directly obtain a foundation-building pill exchange

Qualification; then, those who have extraordinary talent in a certain skill and have been unanimously recognized by the family elders meeting can also obtain redemption qualification; the third one is those who have made some outstanding contributions to the family and made great contributions to the family.

, a person who is specially rewarded by the clan leader or the supreme elder!"

"Of course, being eligible for exchange only means you have the qualification for exchange. The good deeds required to exchange for spiritual items cannot be exempted. When the relevant spiritual items in the family treasure house are out of stock, you also need to wait for replenishment."

"And once it is discovered that there is any malpractice during the process of obtaining the redemption qualification, or a serious violation of clan rules occurs after obtaining the redemption qualification, the redemption qualification will also be cancelled, and the relevant personnel will be held jointly and severally liable!"

At the end of his words, Zhou Chun also gave a serious warning.

After he finished speaking, the expressions of the Zhou family monks who had heard about this for the first time changed and they felt extremely uneasy.

Is Zhou Chun’s decision fair?

It is definitely fairer relatively speaking!

But what is fair may not be accepted by everyone!

In the past, the Zhou family, not to mention the pill-forming spiritual objects, assisted in the development of Zifu spiritual objects and foundation-building pills, but there was a lot of room for manipulation if they wanted to exchange them.

Basically, those Zifu period monks can easily exchange Foundation Building Pills for their descendants or valued people.

So if your father is a monk in the Zifu period, and he has not given birth to ten or eight descendants of monks, it is basically guaranteed that you can get a foundation-building pill within the family!

But if the voting is conducted according to the method recently prescribed by Zhou Chun, then even the monks of the Zifu period who have the right to vote in the exchange of Foundation Establishment Pills may not be able to guarantee 100% that their descendants can obtain the Exchange of Foundation Establishment Pills from their families.

Qualified!

And if the family cannot obtain the qualification to redeem the Foundation Establishment Pill, the Zifu period monks will have to bleed a lot of money to buy the Foundation Establishment Pill from the outside market at a high price for future generations to take.

At the same time, on the other hand, because the monks in the Zifu stage rarely interact with the monks in the Qi training stage, allowing them to participate in the review and voting to determine the exchange qualifications for the Foundation Establishment Pill can also ensure fairness as much as possible.

After all, if they are not familiar with most of the monks who apply for exchange qualifications, they will really vote based on the monk's personal situation to decide whether he can obtain the exchange qualifications.

It was just right for Zhou Chun to choose this time to launch such a system.

In less than half a month, it will be his Nascent Soul Ceremony. Under this background, among the Zifu and Jindan monks present here, even if some are dissatisfied with his system, now

It's also bad and I dare not show it.

Otherwise, he doesn't even need to speak out. Naturally, other people who want to please him or defend him will jump out to criticize him verbally and in vain, thus offending him and other high-level family officials.

So at this time, although many clan members present were furious, in the end, no one expressed any other opinions, which was regarded as acquiescence to the matter.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun also waited for a symbolic period of time before talking about the last thing.

"The third thing I want to say today is to emphasize and promote the family tradition. With the rapid growth of the family's power and status, in the future, you family leaders, and even some family foundation-building monks, will all be in Jingguo.

The world of cultivating immortals has a very high status and has been fawned over by many vassal forces and even other external forces."

"Therefore, what I would like to emphasize here is that I do not require you to be gentle, but you are strictly prohibited from doing things that seriously violate the clan rules and ruin the family tradition. What gifts can be accepted and what benefits cannot be taken? Before you reach out,

, it’s best to think carefully about the clan rules first!”

"At the same time, if someone is found to be relying on the family's reputation to actively bully vassal forces or even casual cultivators and ask for relevant benefits, the family will definitely deal with it severely and there will never be any tolerance!"

"If you don't want others to know, unless you do nothing, you are all accomplished practitioners with long lifespans. I don't want you to finally reach this level of cultivation, only to end up in the cold because of some yellow and white things.

Spend the rest of your life in prison!”

The monks in the Zhou family who know a little bit about Zhou Chun, the patriarch, all know that the patriarch of their family has always paid great attention to reputation and is very principled in his actions.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So the third thing he said did not cause any criticism or dissatisfaction.

The Zhou family's family tradition has always been pretty good, no worse than those of other famous sects. Now they just need to continue to stick to their true intentions and not be fooled by greed.

In this way, amidst the voices of approval, this family meeting came to a successful conclusion.

However, the content of this family meeting only announced the first thing Zhou Chun said, so as not to affect the mood of other middle and low-level clan members celebrating the Nascent Soul Ceremony.
