Chapter 72 Reform (please read it~please vote~)

Less than a month after Li Zhirui took over as the clan leader, Li Shiqing completely gave up and went into seclusion to practice.

After Li Zhirui took power, he did not make any big moves. Xiao Gui followed Cao and everything was done as Li Shiqing did when he was in office.

At the same time, because Li Zhizhun would be the real patriarch in the future, Li Zhirui left many things to him to handle, and also claimed to have trained Li Zhizhun's abilities in advance, so that he would not be in a hurry when he took over.

In addition, Li Shiqing left many matters to the elders, so Li Zhirui, the acting patriarch, did his job very easily, and Li Shilian couldn't stand it anymore.

"Zhirui, although you are the acting clan leader, you don't care about everything, right?" Due to Li Zhirui's current status, Li Shilian couldn't speak too straightforwardly.

Li Zhirui understood what Li Shilian meant, smiled and said, "Grandpa Shilian, don't worry, I know what I'm doing."

"Besides, isn't it great that things are like this now? The family is very stable and there is no trouble at all."

Li Shilian looked at Li Zhirui thoughtfully. He did not believe that Li Zhirui's intelligence could not see the turbulent undercurrent in the family's tranquility after he took over.

"I hope Grandpa Shi Lian can stand by my side when the time comes." Li Zhirui said with a faint smile.

Li Shilian did not mince words and said very directly: "As long as it is beneficial to the development of the family, I will choose to support you."

"Then please wait patiently for a while, Grandpa Shi Lian."

Li Shilian's bright eyes stared at Li Zhirui, who always had a smile on his face. After a long time, he also showed a smile and said: "Okay."

After sending Li Shilian away, Li Zhirui sighed softly. Since he had chosen to take on this responsibility, he naturally could not have such a casual and careless attitude.

It's just that he just came to power. Even though he had the support of Li Shiqing, Li Shilian and others, he was unable to take action because he didn't know enough about the actual situation.

Moreover, as a junior, if Li Zhirui couldn't wait to attack the elders as soon as he became the clan leader, his image in the hearts of the clan members would probably plummet.

Although Li Zhirui doesn't want to be burdened by fame, he doesn't want his reputation to be too bad either.

Now, after more than a month of getting to know each other, Li Zhirui has a clear understanding of all the family affairs, and it is time to establish his prestige as the acting patriarch.

Three days later, Li Zhirui held his first family meeting since taking office.

Li Zhirui sat at the top, looked around at the elders, and said, "Grandpa Shile, please tell me about the family's current financial situation."

Although the Li family has established many elders, in fact many positions are not important, such as the elders in charge of Linghui Academy. Such elders do not have much power.

The only people who truly hold power are the internal affairs elders who are in charge of the family's finances, the foreign affairs elders who inquire about information from outside, the law enforcement elders who are responsible for punishment and supervision, and the great elders who assist the clan leader in managing the family.

Three of these four elders have good relationships with Li Zhirui.

"The family has now opened up 180 acres of spiritual fields, of which 100 acres are planted with various first-level spiritual valleys, and the remaining 80 acres are spiritual medicine gardens."

Li Shile knew these data well and said without pause: "The output of the spiritual field is not sold to outsiders, but is for the family's own use."

"In addition, among the various first-level spiritual beasts cultivated by the family, there are currently 121 red-feathered chickens, 110 blue-headed fish, three nests of wasps, and 53 fanged dolphins...all of them will be mature when mature. The supply cloud is upstairs, or it can be used by the family for their own use.”

"There are a total of 43,795 spirit stones in the warehouse, as well as various spiritual objects and spiritual materials, with a total value of more than 15,000 spirit stones."

"The family's two major businesses in Fangshi, Yunshanglou's monthly net income is about a thousand spirit stones, and the income from the grocery store is not stable due to the uncertain factor of the caravan, but there are at least two per month. Thousands of spiritual stones.”

"As for family expenses, the biggest monthly expense is the purchase of the elixir for refining the Jade Spirit Pill. In addition, the other is the monthly money given to the clan members."

Li Shile finally concluded: "In general, the family's monthly income and expenditure has a lot of surplus."

Li Zhirui nodded. He had seen these data before. Seeing the elders come to their senses, he said: "I think the power of the house elders is too great and the affairs they are in charge of are too complicated. I am going to spare some powers and give them to them." The newly established general affairs elder."

As soon as these words came out, those elders who didn't know the inside story were shocked. They didn't expect that Li Zhirui's first fire would be on Li Shile.

Someone glanced at Li Shile's expression and saw that his face was calm. It was obvious that he had known about this for a long time and had agreed to it.

Li Zhirui visited Li Shile the day before yesterday, and even when he told him about this matter, Li Shile was not happy at first, but after Li Zhirui said something, he thought about it and agreed.

That sentence is: "The family is becoming more and more prosperous now. Grandpa Shile, you can ensure that you are clean and not corrupt and do not harm the interests of the family. But what about the future elders of the house?"

Li Shile has devoted his whole life to the family, so he naturally does not want to harm the interests of the family.

Moreover, he is old now and will abdicate in a few years. Why would he clear up hidden dangers for the family while he is still in office?

"The family's property outside the home and the distribution of monthly money are all managed by the elders."

Li Zhirui ignored everyone's reaction and said to himself: "The house elder will continue to manage the family treasury and the family's internal industries."

"At the same time, when the house elders hand over spiritual beasts, spiritual grains, elixirs, etc. to the general affairs elders, they must remember the quantity and stamp it to facilitate future counting." This is also to prevent someone from being greedy.

This last sentence was not conducive to family unity, so Li Zhirui did not say it.

"The general affairs elders must also regularly hand over the income from external properties to the house affairs elders. The same should be done."

Li Zhirui directly decided on the candidate without asking the elders for their opinions, saying: "Elder Li Shiqi will temporarily serve as the newly established general affairs elder. If there are no problems, he will be officially appointed."

"The second thing we want to discuss today is the family's bodyguards." Li Zhirui frowned slightly and said, "In the past, the family did not attach much importance to the bodyguards, and the bodyguards were indeed dispensable."

"But as the family continues to grow and is known by more and more monks, especially in recent days, more and more strange monks have landed on the island, and the escort team must play its due role!"

This is not an exaggeration by Li Zhirui, but a fact. Ever since his family became famous for its water-refined jade elixir, monks have come to the island from time to time to inquire about information. After the news that the Li family is a beast-controlling family spread, monks have come to the island to inquire about information. Just more.

After all, the Li family is just a foundation-building family, and the clan-protecting formation cannot cover the entire Darong Island. At most, it can only protect dozens of miles around the clan's land.

For the other two spiritual veins, the formations had to be rearranged to prevent outsiders from seeing what was going on inside.

The elder in charge of the escort team is called Li Shijin. He has always had little presence among the elders, but he did not expect that Li Zhirui would reuse the escort team after taking office!
