Chapter 163 Change the Family Rules
"Beiyuan Xianzu ()" Find the latest chapter!
Wang Daoyuan didn't want to be the patriarch. Although the executives of the family were all managed by the elders, the patriarch did not have much to manage. But most of the affairs in the family need to be decided by the patriarch himself.
As big as the relationship with other families, as small as the work each family member has to do, the patriarch must know the bottom line.
Otherwise, make the wrong decision, and the whole family will be unlucky.
He has practiced the Five Spiritual Transformation Immortal Art, and he will need to spend a lot of time in the future to find the spiritual fire of the other three attributes.
As the patriarch, there are a lot of things that tie him up, and he can't go out for a long time at all.
Therefore, it is better for someone else to be the patriarch and make plans for yourself.
So, after the patriarch finished speaking, he immediately said, "Patriarch, don't take me with you, I don't want to be the patriarch, it's better to let the Twelve Uncle be.
My strength lies in finding spiritual things. When I become the patriarch, a lot of things are waiting for me all day. How can I search for spiritual things.
There is another secret that I have been keeping from everyone.
In addition to being a second-tier middle-grade talisman master, I am also a second-tier high-grade alchemy master. Where do I get the time to manage family affairs? "
As soon as these words were spoken, before anyone else could react, Seventh Uncle Wang Shouhong stood up excitedly and asked, "Is this true? Are you really a second-order high-grade alchemist?"
Wang Daoyuan smiled without answering, and took out a condensed grass that had been harvested and stored for a long time.
In his hand, he used fire attribute spiritual power to condense a flame, bake the dew grass, and extract its essence.
After dozens of breaths, the dew grass turned into a mass of ashes, and there was a transparent liquid the size of a longan in Wang Daoyuan's hand, which was the essence of the dew grass.
He smiled at Wang Shouhong and said, "Seventh Uncle, do you think my skill is good? If you don't believe me, I can make a pot of condensing Yuan Dan with my bare hands."
Wang Shouhong shook his head with a wry smile and said, "No need, just this means of extracting the essence, I don't know how much better than me, at least a second-tier middle-rank alchemist.
In addition, there is no need for an alchemy furnace, and the essence of the elixir is extracted with bare hands. The level is higher, and it should be a second-order high-grade alchemist. "
The other elders are laymen in alchemy, and they can't see how bad it is. Since Wang Shouhong, an alchemist, says he is very good, he is really good.
The patriarch pondered for a long time and said, "I thought that you made such a great contribution, and when you become the patriarch, everything in the family will be handed over to you, and you can take whatever you want.
Since you don't want to be, you have to take credit for it.
Just before I give way, I will make the last decision. The contributions you made to the family, those on the bright side, and the third layer of the income belong to you, which should be given to you according to the rules of the family.
For those that need to be kept secret, half of the income is yours.
Whether you want it or not, the family keeps it for you, you can use it anytime you want.
You can arrange these spiritual stones however you want, even if you throw them into the river.
Also, you can't just ignore everything.
Pick a position yourself, while I'm still the patriarch, I can make a promise to you, any position you want. "
No need to be the patriarch, no need to be bound, Wang Daoyuan is very satisfied.
He pondered for a long time, and said: "Patriarch, you mentioned the issue of clan rules, then I will tell you my views on clan rules.
I just want to say that the clan rules of our royal family, including the vast majority of other families, are simply too bad to watch.
I've always wanted to reform the clan's rules, but I was busy with foundation building before, and I never had time to worry about it.
Since the patriarch now asks me to choose a position, I will choose a position that can propose reforms for the family. "
Ninth Uncle said, "All the families I know have similar clan rules, everyone is like this."
Wang Daoyuan replied: "It's all like this, it's the biggest problem, it shows that no one is going to make changes.
There are no perfect things in this world, and so are the rules of the family. There are always loopholes, and no matter how to fix them, they can't be fixed.
And every loophole in the family rules, once discovered and exploited, will cause harm to the family.
If this loophole is not filled,
Then the damage it causes will accumulate, and the damage to the family will get bigger and bigger, until it can destroy the entire family.
Only by constantly filling the loopholes can the family survive for a long time.
As far as I know, there is no family in the Zhao country that can exceed ten thousand years, and even the entire Beiyuan Xiu Xianjie does not have a ten thousand year family.
There are very few who are more than a thousand years old, and most of the families are gone in a few hundred years.
It can be said that one or two families are like this, and all families are like this, that is, all families have made similar mistakes.
This similar error is the family rule. "
The patriarch nodded and said, "Since you want such a position, I will give it to you and appoint you as the reform elder, and you will be responsible for revising the clan rules in the future.
Since Daoyuan is unwilling to be the patriarch, he should keep his business.
Daoyuan, then you can also talk about how to change it. As you said, the family rules are related to the life and death of the family. We must know what you want to change. "
Wang Daoyuan replied: "Since we are all high-ranking members of the family, we should change from top to bottom, starting with the elders.
First, there is a problem with the selection of family elders.
If one's cultivation base reaches the peak of qi training, or one of the hundred arts of immortality reaches the second level, one can become an elder, which is no problem.
These people can make more contributions to the family, and it is understandable to be an elder.
However, those who are not talented in cultivation and who are not good at cultivating immortals and arts does not mean that they cannot make great contributions to the family.
For example, Uncle Ten, who has been running a shop for many years, the contribution made by his old man is no less than that of everyone sitting here, or even greater.
However, he has never been able to become an elder, which is unfair to him.
Therefore, I think that the promotion of elders should not only be based on the level of cultivation and cultivation of immortals, but also on the actual contribution.
If the shopkeeper is good, he can also be an elder. "
Everyone nodded, saying it really made sense.
In the family's hundreds of years of history, there are not one or two people like Wang Zhihe.
They have devoted their whole lives to the family and have contributed more than many elders, but they have no chance to become the elders of the family, which is unfair to them.
Seeing everyone agree, Wang Daoyuan continued: "There are also changes to the powers of the elders.
The current situation is that most of the family's affairs are on the elders and the patriarch.
If the other elders have something to do, just send them off to the first elder.
Then, the patriarch makes a decision, and the chief elder executes it.
The Patriarch and the Great Elder are busy, and the other elders have nothing to do.
So, my advice is to categorize family affairs.
For mining, spiritual planting, alchemy, raising spiritual beasts, transportation, trading, finance, etc., each has an elder.
Under each elder, set up several stewards.
Of course, it is probably like this now, but the responsibilities of elders and stewards are unclear.
In the future, all aspects of the daily affairs will be decided by the elders and executed by the stewards.
It is enough for the elders to directly manage the elders and affairs. If they do well, they will be rewarded by the elders; if they do not do well, they will be punished by the elders.
The chief elder also manages the appointment and removal of personnel. The appointment and removal of each stewardship position is jointly decided by the chief elder and the elder directly under the stewardship.
Big matters are decided by the patriarch and the elders through discussion. If there is a big difference, then the patriarch will decide.
The patriarch has the highest power of appointment and removal, reward and punishment, and decision-making, and has the right to overturn the decisions of the elders and elders.
In this way, many things can be processed quickly, and things are much more efficient. "
The system is adapted to the production level, and all immortal practitioners are regarded as mortals. The production level of the Beiyuan immortal cultivation world is very similar to the feudal monarchy of the previous Huaxia Kingdom.
The structure proposed by Wang Daoyuan is also a simplified version of the three-province and six-ministerial system, with some modifications and a layer of family skin.
Each elder is equivalent to six books, the chief elder is equivalent to the prime minister, and the patriarch is equivalent to the emperor.
Due to the limited number of cultivators in the family, and they cannot support too large a shelf, the current simplified version is sufficient.
Later, according to the actual situation of the family, make changes.
