Collect crowd into immortals

Chapter 76 Cost Control
After seeing Xinlu and learning about the demands of the five brothers and sisters, Chen Guxun did not delay and went directly to the meeting hall to report the five demands to the clan leader.

In the hall, Chen Wanzhou stroked his beard and looked calm:

"Need Ling Tian to do the experiment?"

"That's what they said..."

Immediately afterwards, Chen Guxun repeated Qingxuan's words at that time.

After hearing the reason, Chen Wanzhou squinted his eyes and considered for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

"That's it... that's fine! Then let's allocate a piece of land in Fengdeng Valley for them first, and see what good things they can come up with. If the results are not bad, even if the fifty acres of spiritual land are allotted to them, it won't matter." no!"

"Then I will thank Uncle Wu on their behalf!"

"No! It's all for our Chen family!"

Chen Wanzhou waved his hand.

If Chen Qingxuan and the others really achieved any good results in Lingzhi, wouldn't it be the Chen family of Lianhu Island who benefited from it?

As for the current spiritual fields, they are nothing more than insignificant investments.

Not worth mentioning at all!
You know, the Chen family currently has [-] acres of spiritual land. In the future, there may even be [-] acres or [-] acres of spiritual land. With so much spiritual land, if the output increases by just one or two points, the benefits will already be considerable. .

Not to mention improving even more.

Compared with that, the current investment is really only minimal.

Furthermore, even if Qingxuan and the others don't produce any good results in the future, they can at least accumulate some experience!And in the process, they also improved their cultivation base.

No matter how it is calculated, they will not suffer!
Considering that Qingxuan and the others had embarked on a new path and no longer needed to consume the clan's elixirs, Chen Wanzhou agreed even more simply.

Just...just think of it as a practice resource provided to a few people!

After thinking about it, the patriarch did not continue to struggle with this issue, "As for the demands of the others, you can just follow suit, and we don't need to discuss it!"

"Okay! Then I'll go find Nineteenth Sister later and let her give orders."

In this regard, Chen Guxun has no opinion.

Indeed, except for the spiritual field, everything else is just a trivial matter.

But just as he was about to go out, he suddenly remembered the request of his fifth nephew. He frowned and asked, "Uncle Fifth, how long can our spirit stone last?"

Now everything is ready, the method of enlightenment is available, the experience of magic is available, and there is a corresponding plan to deal with the suspicion of the outside world, but don't make somersaults on the spiritual stone when the time comes.

In that case, the rise of their Lianhu Island will be greatly affected.

There's no reason why Chen Guxun shouldn't be worried about this!
In fact, Chen Wanzhou, who is the head of the clan, is also very clear about this.

Even before the plan was executed, he silently checked the cost of it.

Calculated according to the market price, the price of a bottle of low-grade [Resurrection Pill] is around eight spirit stones. Each clan member consumes half a bottle per day, which means each person needs four spirit stones per day.

There are a total of 140 members of the Chen family on Lianhu Island, including one person from the "Cun" generation, one person from the "Wan" generation, 53 from the "Ancient" generation, 62 from the "Chang" generation, and 24 from the "Qing" generation. people.

Excluding the "Qing" generation who currently does not need to consume the spirit pills and a few older "Ancient" generations.

It is expected that there will be about 100 monks who can practice magic using the "Method of Enlightenment".

In this way, the consumption of [Returning Spirit Pill] alone would require [-] bottles a day, totaling [-] spirit stones.

If you practice for one year, you will need 14 spiritual stones.

With so many spirit stones, you can buy seven Foundation Establishment Pills.

Similarly, the number of spirit stones is beyond the imagination of many casual cultivators in their lifetime.And this is the cost of the Chen family for a year.

The difference is obvious.

However, these spirit stones really had to be spent.

After all, with the magic of Dachengjing, whether it is alchemy refining equipment, or farming spirit kitchen, the production efficiency can be greatly improved.

At that time, these spirit stones invested in can be doubled, or even earned back ten times.

Even those clansmen who fight full-time can obtain higher combat effectiveness and stronger life-saving ability through Dachengjing spells, thus having higher hunting output.

Therefore, even if Chen Wanzhou, Chen Guxun and other middle-level and high-level clan members knew that this plan would cost a lot, no one objected at all.

The question now is, how long can the assets in the family last?
In response to this, Chen Wanzhou's answer was: "We can bear half of the materials for [Hui Ling Dan]. So in total, we can probably last four or five years!"

"Only four or five years?"

When Chen Guxun heard this, he was shocked at first, then after thinking for a moment, he nodded and said: "It's true that it can only last for so long!"

The Chen family's spiritual land is about [-] acres, no, it is now [-] acres.

There are [-] acres of spiritual fields, and the annual output value is about [-] spiritual stones.

After deducting the contribution points distributed to the tribe, as well as the cost of spiritual fertilizer, and the daily consumption, the remaining profit is only about [-] to [-] percent.

That is about [-] a year.

So much for the surplus in spiritual fields.

But in addition to the spiritual field, the Chen family also has multiple profit channels such as weapon refining, alchemy, talisman making, hunting, Ziyun City shops and mineral vein sharing.

These can add up to [-] to [-].

After this calculation, their Chen family's annual surplus is about [-] spiritual stones.

In terms of expenses, in addition to bearing the daily needs of the tribesmen, such as magic weapons, spiritual pills, spiritual talismans, spiritual meals, etc., they also have to shape their spiritual veins from time to time, promote their spiritual veins, and even, like this time, go to Purchase the secret books of exercises and spells.

So don't look at the fact that the Chen family has been established for more than three hundred years, but there are really not many spirit stones that can be controlled in their hands.

At most, there are only a dozen or so Foundation Establishment Pills!

Of course, these are the public property of the clan.

If the private property of the clansmen is included, then the scale has to be expanded by four or five times.

Not to mention anything else, Chen Qingxuan’s seventh grandfather, Chen Guyong, even though he has never been to Lianhu Island and has no skills, if he can contribute some of the various magical weapons, elixirs, and talismans that the old man has. All added up, there is almost a small amount of ten thousand spiritual stones.

In other words, as long as the efforts of two generations can be exchanged for a Foundation Establishment Pill.

Such wealth is evident.

And this is actually the main way for the members of the Chen clan to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Two generations can donate one person, or two parents can donate one directly to give their descendants a chance to build a foundation.

As for whether it is a dragon or an insect, they can only rely on themselves.

Perhaps taking this into consideration, Chen Wanzhou pondered for a while and then said: "Lao Jiu, do you think... should we reduce the supply period of [Hui Ling Dan]?"

"Reduction?" Chen Guxun didn't know why.The supply is good, why the sudden reduction?
"Yes! Reduce! Uncle Wu's idea is: we will give full support in the first year; but after that, we will lower the intensity of support, for example, only reimburse [-]% to [-]%."

"Fifty to sixty percent?"

Chen Guxun was taken aback for a moment, and then realized something, "If it is [-]% or [-]%, the annual cost is about [-], and we can almost keep up."

With the improvement of the realm of spells, their annual output of the Chen family will definitely increase accordingly. By then, they can not only fill in the vacancies, but even have a surplus.

Thinking of this, Chen Guxun didn't object!
After all, no matter what, you can't use up all the family property, and then you can't support it!
What's more, one year is enough for each clan member to master two Dacheng realm spells. Except for some special personnel, such as spiritual planters, talisman makers, and combatants, others such as alchemists, weapon refiners, formation masters, etc. Mage, etc., there is no need to spend any more effort on it.

Even, like alchemists and weapon refiners, as long as they have mastered the art of [Fire Control], they can already improve their skill level by a large margin.

There is really no need to spend too much time on spells.

If this is the case, the cost of [Returning Spirit Pill] in the future clan will definitely drop a lot.They can also last longer.

Just when Chen Guxun was thinking secretly, he saw his fifth uncle Chen Wanzhou who was sitting opposite him sighed, and said in a desolate tone: "Besides, do you think everyone can bear the uninterrupted daily magic comprehension?"

"What does Uncle Wu mean by that?"

Chen Guxun didn't know why.

But after a while, he heard the true meaning of Uncle Wu's words, "Could it be that some people are lazy? This is impossible! Such a good opportunity, there are people who don't cherish it?"

Unlimited supply of elixirs that restore mana, as well as experience in spells, as well as having enough honest and trustworthy comrades, these can be regarded as peerless good conditions that even the famous sects can hardly provide.

(At least, famous sects cannot be popularized! Nor will they be popularized!)
But just like this, there are still people who don't cherish it?
Do they still have a heart?
Thinking of what he was angry about, Chen Guxun suddenly stood up and said, "Fifth uncle, who are you talking about? My nephew, go talk to him and talk to him. I still don't believe it. There are still such bold and reckless people in our Chen family."

You must know that now is a good time for the Chen family to lay the foundation for future rise. As a result, less than a month after it started, someone actually backed down and thought about quitting. Chen Guxun would never agree to it.

Coincidentally, he didn't encounter any unexpected situation when he went out this time, his forehand was itchy, he didn't expect someone to come to his door, Chen Guxun didn't want to just let him go so simply.

At least you have to live the last game!
As for him in the foundation building period, but the offender is in the Qi refining period, how can he control it?

Do it first!
After the call, they will talk in detail.

Seeing that he was so excited, it seemed that he couldn't wait to teach others a lesson. Chen Wanzhou at the table hurriedly comforted him, "Don't worry, just sit down and listen to me!"

Hearing this, Chen Guxun suppressed the excitement in his heart a little bit, and then he heard Uncle Wu narrate: "Actually, the person who has the problem is not from our Chen family, but from Wangyue Island."

"Mochizuki Island? Isn't it in our house?"

Hearing that it was not from the Chen family, the atmosphere in Chen Guxun's heart immediately disappeared without a trace.

If it's not from their Chen family, that's fine!
"Well! That child is not very old either, he is about the same age as Chang Sheng and Chang You, and he has only been practicing for a few years.

As a result, I couldn't bear the pain of having to think hard every day, so I started fishing for three days and drying the net for two days.

After being discovered, your fourteenth aunt gave me a severe lesson, and you are still thinking about it behind closed doors. "

"Okay, so that's the way it is! No, Uncle Wu, then our Chen family really doesn't have one?"

Chen Guxun was nervous about this.

Now that the problem has already appeared, it must not be an isolated case. Even if the Chen family does not have it, there should be signs of it.

Even, it has already appeared, but it has not been discovered yet.

Afterwards, the words of the patriarch Chen Wanzhou also verified his guess.

Chen Wanzhou breathed a sigh of relief, looked up at the blue sky outside the door, and said slowly: "It is true that there is no such thing at the moment! However, I have heard some people report that the speed of comprehension has dropped significantly."

"Someone is not doing their best!"

Chen Guxun reacted instantly.

He has specifically studied the "Tongdao Enlightenment Method", so he naturally knows the circumstances under which this situation would occur.

Apart from obvious intellectual problems and exhaustion of inspiration, it can only be that someone is lazy.

Chen Wanzhou did not refute, but nodded.

"Hmm! Moreover, this problem is not one or two, at least three or five groups have this situation.

Just the day before yesterday, I also discussed with Mochizuki Island and Lingkong Island, and they also had a similar situation.

Therefore, we deduce that it is very likely that once the half-year period is up, that is, after the first spell is practiced, some people will quit one after another.As for one year from now...whether half of it will be left by then is a question. "

"so serious!"

Chen Guxun exclaimed, and then suddenly realized:

Since there are five races, it means that this problem is very common, and relying on coercion alone will definitely not work.

As for guiding education, it depends on the situation.

It's just that Chen Guxun can't figure out why there are still people who want to show off with such good conditions, and don't know how to cherish them?
Even if he thought about it, he couldn't figure it out!
Seemingly seeing his doubts, the fifth uncle coughed lightly and explained in a sincere way: "Gu Xun, you probably haven't tried the "Tong Dao Enlightenment Method" yet! Try it when you have time, and experience how your brain is being affected. You’ll almost understand the feeling of being hollowed out!”

"Has your head been hollowed out?" Chen Guxun seemed to realize something.

The patriarch nodded and said: "Well! Your head has been hollowed out! Unlike physical fatigue, the feeling of being hollowed out is even more unbearable. To be honest, if it weren't for the temptation of the Dachengjing spell, I think they all have to quit now A lot."

"All right!"

Although Chen Guxun still can't imagine what it feels like to have his head hollowed out, and he can't feel whether it is really hard to bear, but he also knows that it is inevitable that the clansmen will quit one after another.

Unless, reduce the degree of comprehension, that is, the speed of learning, so the duration may be longer.

But in this case, you have to find a few "comrades" who have the same idea.

At present, this is not realistic!

But from this point of view, the five Qingxuan brothers who have persisted for ten years are still very strong.

Ten years, compared to less than a month, the gap is simply too big.

It's no wonder that they were able to sum up the "Same Way of Enlightenment", and even discovered a new path.

Suddenly, a sense of admiration emerged from Chen Guxun's heart.

Those five brothers and sisters are not easy!

Of course, this may also be due to their training since they were young, and they are already used to it, so they don't feel any hardship or tiredness.Even Chen Guxun felt that they might still feel that it was enjoyment.

Just as he was thinking about it, another question suddenly came to his mind, "Then fifth uncle, why do you want to reduce your support? After a year, if there is only half of it left, we should still be able to support it."

"This..."

Chen Wanzhou shook his head with a smile, "Old Ninth, you should know that the Chen Clan of Lianhu Island is not from those of us in the Foundation Establishment period, nor is it from a small group of people, but from all the monks of the Chen family.

Every countermeasure issued by our family must focus on the overall interests of the family.

In this way, we can implement it faster and better! "

While talking, Chen Wanzhou stood up, walked to the entrance of the hall, looked at the big square in front of the door, and looked at the attics lined up on both sides of the road...

At this moment, he seemed to have seen every clansman on Lianhu Island.

After a long time, he sighed, "The whole..."

"overall?"

Chen Guxun followed and stared at all this. After a long while, he realized something.

Whether it was for fairness, to reduce expenses, or for other reasons, he didn't know clearly.But he knew that he seemed to be a little short of being the leader of the clan.
