Chapter 96: Increasing Income and Reducing Expenditure

After listening to Zhang Mengling's words, everyone already knew that the family had now reached a time when it had to increase revenue and reduce expenditure. Otherwise, if the deficit continues, the family's benefits will be severely reduced.

Zhang Zhixuan thought for a while and said: "Now the family is facing difficulties in making ends meet. The clan leader and I will not receive our annual salary for the time being. You three elders have to prepare for foundation building now. It is when we are short of spiritual stones, so don't ask us learned.

In addition, this time I went to the Southern Wilderness and killed more than a dozen monks. The total amount of various materials seized was worth three thousand spirit stones. Except for the spirit stones to repay debts, all these resources were placed in the public house. In a few days, ten Uncle Jiu came to take inventory and put it into storage.

In addition, the Xuanyou Grass has been growing for almost ten years and is almost mature. When the Xuanyou Grass matures, we can refine a large amount of Youhuan Dan.

Although the growth cycle of Xuanyou grass is longer, on average, sixty spirit stones can be harvested every year.

Moreover, I have explored the terrain in detail. Whether it is the pool in the back mountain or the bottom of the spiritual well, the area is relatively large. I can continue to expand the planting area of ​​​​Xuanyou grass. In the future, this income will gradually surpass Jinyadan and become the family's largest income. Important spiritual herbs.

In addition, efforts should continue to be made to develop spiritual fields. The queen bee of the White Jade Beehive is about to advance. Once the queen bee successfully evolves to the second level, the production of the hive will be greatly increased, and the income will also increase a lot.

Now that I have built the foundation, Qingchan and I will soon go down the mountain and move the cave near Lingtian. With my care, Lingtian will not need too many manpower.

It is enough to leave only two spiritual husbands, the seventh uncle and the thirteenth uncle.

In addition, for family tasks, do not distribute spiritual stones for the time being. Instead, you must learn from Qingxuan Sect and establish a family system of good deeds.

From now on, resources controlled by the family such as spiritual rice, spiritual wine, exercises, magical weapons, elixirs, honey, and royal jelly must be exchanged for good deeds.

Our family's good deeds must also be learned from the Qingxuan Sect. The value of one good deed is about one spiritual stone.

In this way, the turnover of spirit beasts will be greatly reduced, and the pressure will be relieved. "

After Zhang Zhixuan established the foundation, the amount of spiritual energy refined every day increased greatly, and there were already sixty or seventy monks living on the family's third-level low-grade spiritual veins, which was already overwhelmed.

Now Zhang Zhixuan mainly relies on the water spirit pot to refine spiritual energy.

The water spirit pot can produce about one spirit stone's worth of spiritual water every day, and Zhang Zhixuan consumes about one spirit stone's worth of spiritual energy every day.

However, Qingchan has reached the ninth level of Qi training and has reached the bottleneck. It is no longer possible to increase his mana, and the amount of spiritual energy he needs to consume has also been greatly reduced. He basically no longer refines spiritual water.

It's a pity that her soul seems to be incomplete, otherwise she would be able to break through the bottleneck and hit the foundation-building stage now.

In a year or two, when Zhang Hanyan returned to Qingxuan Sect, Zhang Zhixuan was going to take Qing Chan to Qingxuan Sect. Thanks to Han Yan's relationship, he asked a monk who was good at treating internal injuries of the soul to take a look at Qing Chan. Is there any remedy?

After discussing for a long time, everyone found that there was no way to earn a large amount of spiritual stones right away. They could only gradually lay a solid foundation for the family step by step.

Simply, the clan leader can draw third-level spiritual talismans, and drawing three spiritual talismans every year is enough to support his cultivation.

Zhang Zhixuan has a water spirit pot in his hand, and he is also a master who has no shortage of spirit stones.

Zhang Hanyan is a monk of the Qingxuan Sect. The Qingxuan Sect is very wealthy. The annual salary given to them, the foundation-building monks, is two hundred spirit stones. Moreover, Qingxuanzong's mountain sect has sufficient spiritual energy, so she still has no shortage of resources in Qingxuanzong for the time being.

Zhang Zhixuan lived on Tiantai Peak for half a month, then took Qingchan and moved to a hill near Lingtian.

Because the family has cultivated spiritual veins in the spiritual field, the spiritual energy here is becoming more and more abundant.

Mountains have always been a place where spiritual energy gathers. This small mountain peak absorbs a steady stream of spiritual energy, and its intensity is no less than Zhang Zhixuan's cave on Lushan Mountain.

After Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan moved down, there was no need for too many garrison monks here in Lingtian. In addition to the two spiritual cultivators, Zhang Mengyuan, the seventh uncle, and Zhang Menghan, the thirteenth uncle, there was only an eighteen-year-old apprentice left.

This person is also a monk of the Zhizi generation. His cultivation level is only at the first level of Qi training. He is a four-spirit-rooted monk and plans to be a spiritual cultivator for the rest of his life.

Such monks are the majority, but geniuses like Zhang Zhixuan and Qing Chan can only be seen once in a hundred or thousand years.

Just a few days after Zhang Zhixuan settled down, his seventh uncle Zhang Mengyuan came to visit. Zhang Zhixuan opened the door of the cave and asked, "What are you doing for your seventh uncle to come to my place so early in the morning?"

Uncle Qi looked at Zhang Zhixuan, who had already established his foundation, and asked in a low voice: "Zhixuan, when you go to Southern Wilderness this time, are you going to get back a spiritual elixir that can improve your cultivation.

I heard that this elixir is very effective. Can I exchange it for you? "

Qi Bo is already eighty-one years old this year. At this age, why are you still keen on improving your cultivation?

At this age, it is no longer possible to build foundations. Even if you waste resources to improve your cultivation, it will just be retiring in the mountains.

Moreover, the older you get, the less Qi and blood you have, and there is always some danger in breaking through the bottleneck. Therefore, at this age, monks in the Qi training period are basically not enthusiastic about cultivation.

Seeing Uncle Qi's high interest, Zhang Zhixuan said: "We have exchanged ten bottles of Youhuan Dan from Heishan, five of which will be sent to Fangshi to exchange for spiritual stones. The remaining five bottles are going to be kept in Gongzhong for supply and preparation for Qi training. A monk on the ninth floor.

This batch of spiritual elixirs is now in the hands of Uncle Nineteen. As long as fifteen good deeds are required, one can exchange for one Nether Return Pill.

This is the first time for our family to take this kind of elixir. We have no experience in taking it yet. To be cautious, the family has stipulated that a monk in the late stage of Qi training can only exchange for a Youhuan Dan every three years.

Qi Bo, you are already over eighty years old, why take the risk of taking this elixir? Wouldn't it be nice to live a life of leisure and ease like this? "

Qi Bo felt a sense of shame on his face, and said helplessly: "Zhixuan, I'm the only one here, so I can naturally relax and enjoy myself.

But I have to consider your twenty-ninth brother Zhi'an. His spiritual roots are very bad and he is not as good as me, a monk with four spiritual roots.

I don't have a few years left. If I can become a family elder, I will have a salary of sixty spiritual stones every year.

And now I plant spiritual fields for my family, and the annual reward is only twenty spiritual stones. If I can live a few more years, I can accumulate a fortune of spiritual stones for Zhi'an. In the future, it will be easier for him to cultivate on the road of cultivation if I am gone. "

Listening to Uncle Qi's words, what else could Zhang Zhixuan say.

In a family, there are monks who risk their lives for the family, there are monks who devote themselves to the family, there are monks who are just hanging around, and there are monks who poach the family.

Although Qi Bo was devoted to his children and grandchildren, he still worked hard at home without complaining.

He has been farming for his family for decades and has always done his best.

Now that he is ready to take risks and hit the bottleneck, Zhang Zhixuan can only wish him good luck secretly. He has been practicing to the eighth level of Qi training for almost twenty years. Even though he is old now, he is still more than half sure of success.
