The Sixth Old Master Wang Xiaohan was a little suspicious, but he still respected Wang Shouzhe's decision after all.
He is now the patriarch, the majestic head of the family, if he strongly opposes the sale of immature 500-year-old Nine-leaf Spirit Ginseng, no one will dare to sell it.
Afterwards, Wang Shouzhe paid attention to the remaining six or seven middle-grade spirit fields.
There are also nine-leaf ginseng planted there, also ranging from low to high, the worst is ten years old, and the highest is seventy years old.
"Nine-leaf spiritual ginseng, we don't sell it to the outside world, but use it as a slow accumulation of family heritage." Wang Xiaohan explained, "Therefore, although the output value of these two acres of middle-grade spiritual fields is quite high, at least half The profits are still invested in the cultivation of Nine-leaf Spirit Ginseng."
"That's right." Wang Shouzhe nodded in praise, "If a family wants to continue to prosper, it does not rely on short-term profits, but on some long-term investment and output. In this way, the family's heritage will gradually become more solid, and it will be easier to meet people's needs. In a good year, you can take advantage of the situation to rise, and if you encounter a famine or a crisis, you can rely on your foundation to support it."
Theoretically speaking, these two acres of middle-grade spiritual fields were secretly managed separately from the family property, which violated the taboo of the Xuanwu family.
But this is not because a certain clan member is managing private property. In a broad sense, it is still part of the clan property.
It has always been one of the biggest taboos of the Xuanwu family to manage private property and seek personal gain. Such an ethos will inevitably lead to discord among the family members, endless civil strife, and eventually disintegration.
If a clansman really wants to develop his own business alone, he can still leave the clan and start his own clan elsewhere after negotiating conditions with the clan and other consent.
This is the so-called separation.
At that time, that branch will be recorded as a branch of the Ping'an Wang family - a collateral blood.
For example, the Jinsha Xu family is an offshoot of the Changning Xu family. Although both are from the Xu family, they were separated into two independent individuals more than a hundred years ago.
The Ping'an Wang Clan can also be regarded as a collateral bloodline of the Longzuo Wang Clan. In the genealogy of the Longzuo Wang Clan's ancestral hall, there must be records about this bloodline being passed down by Zhouxuan's ancestor.
It's just how many people are passed down, and who are the descendants? Naturally, these will not be recorded in the genealogy, at most, there will be some biographical records, remembering the influential figures here.
Gossip aside.
After visiting the family's secret background, Wang Shouzhe is also in a good mood. With these backgrounds, his confidence is even more abundant.
Wang Xiaohan led Wang Shouzhe around Xingsheng Farm and learned about it, which greatly enhanced his understanding of Xingsheng Farm.
After achieving his goal, Wang Shouzhe took a boat back to his residence with the old seventh Wang Shouye after eating.
Along the way, inside the awning boat.
Wang Shouzhe took out a pen and paper, sometimes thinking hard, sometimes taking notes. Wang Shouye on the side poked his head, as if curious: "Fourth brother, what are you writing about?"
"System panel."
"Oh." Wang Shouye didn't know what a system panel was at all, but somehow felt that the fourth brother was so powerful, and his admiration was once again heightened.
That's right, Wang Shouzhe will never give up gradually building and updating his system panel.
The awning boat swayed all the way back to the house.
Wang Shouzhe encouraged Wang Shouye with a few words of encouragement, and then asked his servant Wang Gui to send him back. Then he carried a cloth bag of fresh melons and fruits and headed all the way to Longyanju.
Arriving outside Longyanju, Wang Shouzhe found the big girl Wang Lici poking her head. He immediately turned serious: "Big girl, what are you doing so sneakily?"
"Yeah? Fourth Uncle..."
Wang Lici was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he confessed honestly, "I, I'm looking for the ancestor."
"Nonsense." Wang Shouzhe frowned and scolded, "Longyan Residence is a forbidden place. How dare you disturb Patriarch Qingxiu without being summoned by Patriarch."
"I, I..." Wang Lici's round face turned pale with tears in her eyes, "Fourth, fourth uncle. I am, I am looking for my ancestors to teach me my body skills and combat skills."
"Agility and combat skills?" Wang Shouzhe looked at her suspiciously, "Are you sure you didn't come here to beg for food from the ancestor?"
"Fourth, fourth uncle. You, how could you say that about me." Wang Lici was so aggrieved that she pressed her lips weakly, "So, let me be self-motivated? People, they also want to become stronger. "
I heard so.
Wang Shouzhe's stern expression melted a bit, and he rubbed her head apologetically and said, "It turns out that my family, Li Ci, is still self-motivated. It's my fourth uncle who misunderstood me. Fourth uncle apologizes to you."
Hmph, I'm so angry, I don't want to talk to you.
Wang Lici turned her head away, pouted her small mouth, tears streaming down her face, not to mention how wronged and pitiful she was.
"By the way, I just went to Xingsheng Farm." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "The freshly picked melons, the weather is good this year, and the melons are juicy and sweet. Would you like to have one?"
As he spoke, he took out a green melon from the cloth bag.
"Yes, yes." Wang Lici immediately lit up his eyes, took it and wiped it, Gaba Gaba began to eat, his eyes were narrowed into a slit in satisfaction, and he praised, "This melon is so sweet and delicious. , thank you fourth uncle."
"Lici, it's good to be self-motivated. But the ancestor is not in good health, so try not to disturb her if she has nothing to do." Wang Shouzhe said happily, "At your current level, fourth uncle's guidance is enough. Starting tomorrow , you will wait for me in my martial arts field, and my fourth uncle will take you to practice together. Eat slowly, here, I will give you another melon."
Wang Lici listened well to the first half of the sentence, but she trembled when she heard the second half, and she was so frightened that she didn't even eat the melon. When she instinctively took the melon, she said weakly: "Fourth, fourth uncle. Mao, Mao Shi Is it too early?"
"It's not too early. It's already summer, and it's getting dark at the beginning of Mao." Wang Shouzhe said with a slight frown.
"I, what I mean is. Is there a basalt combat skill that can become very powerful without practicing, just by eating and drinking every day." Wang Lici blinked and asked curiously, "How about, fourth uncle, you can do it for me." Ask the ancestor?"
interesting!
Wang Shouzhe's face twitched a little. It turned out that this was the girl's self-motivation. Fortunately, he really believed it!
Wang Shouzhe, Wang Shouzhe, you are still young after all.
Immediately, he took her melon calmly, stuffed it back into the cloth bag, and then went to Longyanju without looking back.
"Hey, fourth uncle, that's my melon, how can you snatch it from me?" Wang Lici chased after him, "Fourth uncle and fourth uncle, the world is so big and full of wonders, maybe there is that kind of black martial arts?"
Wang Shouzhe sneered twice, are you still blaming me for my lack of knowledge
"Come in, don't make noise outside."
At this moment, Longyan's ancestor's voice came from Longyan's house.
Wang Shouzhe responded, pushed the door open and entered, but Wang Lici followed in, seeing that the fourth uncle's eyes were not looking good, he shrank his head and said: "The old ancestor said, come in." The word "du" has a special accent Emphasized it.
"Hehe~" Wang Shouzhe glared at her, then went inside to meet the ancestor Longyan.
At this moment, Patriarch Longyan had already moved to the gazebo, waiting for the two of them.
"Shouzhe pays homage to the ancestor." While saluting, Wang Shouzhe found that the aura of the ancestor Longyan seemed to be very good, and even the white hair of the shawl seemed to be covered with an invisible light. He immediately said happily, "Congratulations The old ancestor Feng has a good physique."
My heart is also excited about it, the better the ancestor's health, the safer the Wang family, and the burden on my heart can be relieved a lot.
"Lici pays respects to the old ancestor, congratulations to the old ancestor for his good body." Wang Lici also rushed forward to pay his respects, and even copied Wang Shouzhe's congratulatory speech, which made the corners of Wang Shouzhe's eyes twitch.
However, Patriarch Longyan listened to her. When she was in good health, she was also in a good mood, so she beckoned Wang Lici to go over: "You child, why don't you come to see Patriarch some time?"
Such a scene made Wang Shouzhe slightly astonished. Baidaowei and his party, what ecstasy did this girl give the ancestor? The ancestor seemed to dote on her quite a bit.
Then, Wang Lici began to circle around the ancestor courteously, helped her squeeze her shoulders and beat her arms, and replied, "Fourth Uncle said that Longyanju is a forbidden place for the family, so please don't bother Laozu Qingxiu with nothing. Woooo ~Old Ancestor, Li Ci misses you very much, I don’t think about tea or food all day long, you can see that I’ve lost weight.”
interesting.
Wang Shouzhe's eyes became unfriendly. How dare this poor girl accuse her of putting on eye drops
"It seems to be a little thinner." Patriarch Longyan glanced at her, and then said to Wang Shouzhe, "Shouzhe, if the big girl wants to come in the future, you can let her come."
Hearing this, Wang Lici, who was hiding behind the patriarch, showed a proud expression to Wang Shouzhe.
"Old Ancestor." Wang Shouzhe said, "I'm just afraid that she will be too noisy and affect my Ancestor's cultivation."
"It doesn't matter." The patriarch Longyan didn't know if it was because of his good health, but his mood became more open, "Li Ci is gentle, well-behaved and caring, with her company, the injury will heal faster."
Ok.
Wang Shouzhe admitted that Wang Lici's ability to hold thighs is not small, and immediately said: "As long as the ancestor likes it, these melons and fruits have just been picked from the farm. Please give the ancestor a taste."
"Fourth Uncle has worked hard, I'll do this kind of trivial matter." Wang Lici rushed forward, took the cloth bag, and after washing two melons very attentively, he and the ancestor each naturally said, "Old Ancestor, please eat melons." , I have eaten this melon, it is so crunchy and sweet."
Then she gawked and ate happily.
Wang Shouzhe really admired the thick skin of this eldest niece.
Seeing how sweet she was eating, Patriarch Longyan turned around slightly, lifted a corner of the veil, took two bites and said, "It's summer this year, there is less rain, and the melons are sweeter than in previous years."
Seeing that the ancestor's mentality was so suitable, Wang Shouzhe felt quite relieved. Recently, in order to heal the wounds, the ancestor also provided ample supply of spiritual food. His originally thin body and bones became more plump, and his breath was also swept away from the coldness and stagnation.
With the recovery of her injuries evident, she is full of hope for the future of herself and her family.
This also means that the bad luck of the Wang family for fifty years is about to come to an end. The next step is to liquidate and liquidate, it is time to rise and rise.
Wang Shouzhe's mood also became better.
But before that, we still have to take care of the future of Wang Lici, the advanced junior of the Wang family.
This child is self-motivated, likes delicious food, is full of enthusiasm and beautiful imagination for life, and knows how to please the elders.
Such a wonderful kid.
Presumably, it would be most appropriate to arrange for her to accompany Grandpa Six to plant spiritual fields.
Also, this child loves to read and is spiritual, and some new classics and ancient books must not be lost to her. The Wang family is poor, but no matter how poor they are, they can't poor the children's education.
When Wang Shouzhe thought of the scene of the big girl working hard in the fields during the day, and reading at night in the thatched cottage with the stars and the moon and the lamp at night, he couldn't help showing a gratified and satisfied smile.
The hope of the family's rise depends on these outstanding juniors after all.
We elders, at the critical moment of their growth, should help and need to help.
"?"
Wang Lici, who was happily eating the third melon, felt something was wrong, and her back felt chilly.
