Wang Qingzhi smiled naively, touched his head in embarrassment, and felt happy. He glanced at Qi Shanshan's delicate face, hesitated again, plucked up the courage, and asked cautiously: "Fairy Qi, are you free tonight? My eighth uncle brought some golden and jade rice. It tastes quite good. I would like to treat you." Give it a try and thank you for taking good care of the purple-scaled crucian carp."
"Golden jade spiritual rice? This is the second-order spiritual rice. It is too precious. I am already very grateful that your family is willing to take me and grandpa in. Forget about the second-order spiritual rice! It is too precious."
Qi Shanshan was a little moved, thought about it again, and declined politely.
"Looking at what you said, it's just some second-order spiritual rice, not much, just three taels. I don't have any more. You usually make spiritual cakes for me to eat. I treat you to some second-order spiritual rice. This is natural. Don’t refuse what you need to do, okay?”
Wang Qingzhi said expectantly, looking a little nervous.
Seeing the serious look on Wang Qingzhi's face, Qi Shanshan hesitated for a moment, then nodded and agreed: "Okay! As agreed, it's three ounces. I made some dried fish a few days ago, which I can use for cooking. You can sit down after sunset Come on! It’s not good for others to see you too late.”
"Okay, I will be there on time."
Wang Qingzhi was overjoyed and agreed repeatedly.
In a quiet courtyard, Wang Mingyuan, Liu Qing'er, and Wang Ruyan were drinking tea and chatting in a stone pavilion.
Wang Mingyuan and Liu Qing'er have more white hair and look a little older.
"Ruyan, why hasn't your son come back yet? I remember he left almost three years ago! Nothing will happen!"
Liu Qing'er said worriedly, with a sad look on her face.
"Mom, don't worry, you and dad! My husband and the others must be fine. They must have been delayed on the road. They will probably be back soon."
Wang Ruyan opened her mouth to comfort her. She said this, but she was very worried about Wang Changsheng in her heart.
Except for Wang Ruyan, Wang Changhao is currently the Wang clan member with the highest cultivation level in the clan. If something happens, the second floor of the foundation building will not work at all. Wang Ruyan is on the fourth floor of the foundation building after all, and he is Wang Huashan's grandniece. If something happens, Wang Ruyan will be there. It's easy to handle now.
Before Wang Changsheng and the others came back, she was the backbone of the Wang family and had to take good care of the family.
She suddenly remembered something and stopped talking.
"Ruyan, there are no outsiders here, just say what you want to say!"
Wang Mingyuan saw this scene and said.
"Dad, that's what happened. The current management of the clan is a bit chaotic. I want to imitate the system of my mother's family and set up elders and family heads to manage the family. The other foundation-building monks can practice with peace of mind. What do you think?"
The Wang family currently has eleven foundation-building monks, which is the most powerful period since the clan was founded. Before this, Wang Mingyuan served as the head of the Wang family. However, after the number of foundation-building monks in the clan increased, many matters were voted on. This This system is not particularly good.
Wang Ruyan plans to imitate the Wang family's system and set up family heads and elders to manage the family.
There are multiple elders, who are responsible for handling different things. There is one head of the family, but he must be a foundation-building monk. Only other foundation-building monks can be convinced. This person must be fair in dealing with things and convince most of the clan members.
Wang Mingjiang and the other three have not come back yet. Wang Ruyan cannot decide on the choice of the head of the family without authorization. As the head of the family, he has a good reputation, but it will definitely affect his cultivation. After all, he manages a big family. This kind of thing cannot be forced, and he can't force it. sweet.
Wang Mingyuan thought for a while and said: "Establishing elders and family heads? Your proposal is good. The elders are easy to choose. Regarding the family head, do you have a favorite candidate?"
"Yes, Qingyuan. He has been working for many years. He has rich experience, meticulous thinking, and is steady and decent in his work. He is the most suitable person to be the head of the family. However, he is only in the Qi refining period. I plan to let him serve as the elder first. I will act as the head of the family temporarily. After my husband and the others come back, I will push Qingyuan to the position of the head of the family, so that the tribe will be more accepting. If Qingyuan is allowed to be the head of the house all of a sudden, the tribe may not be convinced."
Wang Ruyan said slowly.
"You are thinking about the family. I support you in this matter. Just feel free to do it! If you need me to come forward and tell me."
Wang Ruyan looked happy and said, "Thank you, dad, I will send someone to bring Qingyuan back right now."
Wang Mingyuan waved his hand and said with a smile: "What's there to thank you for? I'm already old. The future of the family lies with you. Your suggestion is really good for the family. Go ahead and do it! Dad fully supports you."
A few days later, Wang Qingshan returned to Wangjiabao.
Wang Ruyan called a meeting of the foundation-building monks in the clan and proposed that the family head and elders should manage the family.
Others did not object to Wang Ruyan's proposal. They were eager to have more time to practice.
At present, Wang Ruyan is responsible for handling all matters within the family. She serves as the acting head of the family, and no one else objects.
They discussed for more than an hour and decided to elect seven elders to assist Wang Ruyan in managing the family.
Wang Mingsen is good at planting. He was successfully selected and was responsible for taking care of the spiritual grains and elixirs. Wang Mingyan was responsible for taking care of the spiritual beasts and birds. Wang Mingzhan was responsible for the vigilance and protection of the clan. Wang Changhui was responsible for handling the refining and sales of the puppet beasts. Li Qiwen was responsible for handling the talismans. For the refining and sales, Wang Changxing is responsible for the management of the stores under the Wang family, and Wang Qingyuan is responsible for handling the finances.
Wang Qingyuan is relatively young, and Wang Changhao and Wang Changyue disagree, but Wang Ruyan insists on choosing Wang Qingyuan and uses the example of Chen Qingshu.
Wang Qingyuan's performance in recent years has indeed been good. Wang Ruyan insisted again and again, and Wang Changhao and Wang Changyue relented.
"Aunt Ninth, I'm still on the first floor of the foundation building. I plan to go out and relax. Maybe I can advance to the second floor of the foundation building. What do you think?"
Wang Qingshan asked Wang Ruyan.
Wang Ruyan shook his head and said solemnly: "No, your cultivation level is too low. How many years have you only been building the foundation? It's not strange to stay at the first level of the foundation building. Aunt Ninth knows that you want to hunt monsters, but when you advance It’s not too late to enter the second level of Foundation Establishment. It’s not easy to advance in sword cultivation. Don’t be impatient and stay calm. It’s still relatively dangerous to travel outside with your first-level cultivation of Foundation Establishment. Listen to Aunt Ninth, It is not easy for the family to cultivate a foundation-building monk by staying in Hongye Ridge to practice."
"Yes! Qingshan, I know you are restless, but your cultivation level is still too low. According to Uncle Eighteen, it's not too late to cultivate to the second level of Foundation Establishment before going out to travel."
Wang Changhao followed suit.
Wang Changyue and Wang Qingqi also don't agree with Wang Qingshan hunting monsters now. After all, Wang Qingshan's cultivation level is indeed too low.
After listening to the advice of his tribe, Wang Qingshan thought again and again and agreed: "Okay! Then I will go back to Hongye Ridge to practice. This time, I will never leave until I advance to the second level of foundation building."
That night, Wang Qingshan left Wangjiabao and returned to Hongye Ridge.
