The Xiuxian family can't float

Chapter 39 Arrangements After Compromise
Before this, Ling Jiexin had never mentioned the matter of establishing a patriarch, but had always wanted to change some of the existing systems of the Cangli Ling clan.

The six people thought that today he would bring up the matter of restructuring again, but never thought that he would even want to establish a patriarch.

The Cangli Ling clan had no patriarch from the very beginning of Ling Taiyi, because Ling Taiyi felt that it was easy to make mistakes in leading the Cangli Ling clan alone, so he did not set up a clan chief, but formed a council of elders to jointly manage the clan.

Indeed, compared with the patriarchal system, the Cangliling family under the leadership of the elders system has gone smoothly for more than 500 years without much twists and turns.

However, for nearly 200 years, the Cangli Ling family has been standing still, and the shortcomings of the Presbyterian system have undoubtedly been exposed.

But no one ever proposed to set up a patriarch, because no one dared to openly challenge the fundamental system of the Cang Liling clan.

But today Ling Jiexin actually brought it up, which is really shocking. Even Ling Yuansheng, who is inclined to the radical faction, felt that what he did was too rash.

Ling Yuanxiang said: "Ninth uncle, do you really want to be the patriarch? Then where did you put my grandfather?"

Hearing this, Ling Jiexin said: "If the grandfather wants to be the patriarch, I will be the leader."

"Ninth brother, you yourself know that the six elders will not agree to the establishment of the patriarch."

What a joke, once a patriarch is established, the power of the Presbytery will be greatly reduced, or even replaced by the patriarch. How can these Presbyterian members who have held power for many years be willing to give up.

"My Cangli Ling family has been standing still for 200 years. In these 200 years, we have not made any progress. It is the Presbyterian system that has dragged down the family.

I would like to personally go to the top of Qingcang Mountain and explain the benefits to my grandfather, who may support the establishment of a patriarch. "

Ling Jieran said helplessly: "Okay, ninth brother, tell me, what do you want to do?"

Ling Jiexin really wanted to establish a patriarch, but not now, because he didn't have the strength to subdue the elders.

The reason why he proposed to establish a patriarch at this time is just to use this as a threat to make several elders compromise with his own restructuring.

"Myling should know what I want to do, which is restructuring."

"impossible!"

Ling Yuanxiang said immediately.

Ling Jieran said: "Yuanxiang is right, it is impossible to change the system, but I can let you try some things first."

He understood that if he didn't make some concessions today, Ling Jiexin would really dare to go to the top of Qingcang Mountain to meet Ling Chuyun. Ling Chuyun didn't agree with the establishment of the patriarch, but once he agreed, the rights of these elders would be gone Not going back.

Of course, Ling Chuyun would never let Ling Jiexin be the patriarch, otherwise he would definitely promote the reform of the Cangli Ling clan, so the patriarch would probably choose a person from the five rooms other than the eldest room and the third room.

But Ling Jieran wasn't sure that this kind of good thing would fall on his own head, in the second room, and the other homeowners were not sure either, they didn't dare to take risks with their real power.

Ling Jiexin also knew that there was too much resistance to complete the restructuring at this time, so he nodded in agreement with Ling Jieran's idea.

Seeing him nodding, Ling Jieran looked at the crowd and said, "Which is better or worse between the old and new systems? None of us know, so let's make an attempt to test the pros and cons of the two systems."

Several elders nodded in agreement, Ling Yuanxiang asked, "Uncle Eight, don't know how to test?"

Ling Jieran thought for a while, "I will try it with the children of the generation of the surname, and compare it with the children of the definite generation, so as to compare the pros and cons of the old and new systems."

Ling Yuanxiang said, "Eighth Uncle, it's not fair. How can the Dingzi generation compare to Youxian, a genius with Bing Linggen."

Ling Jieran nodded, "Yuanxiang said it well, then compare the two generations as a whole. If the generation of characters is strong, follow the old system, and if the generation of characters is strong, change the system."

He looked at Ling Jiexing, "Ninth brother, what do you think?"

"Ninth Uncle, aren't you afraid of losing?"

"Joke, I've never been afraid of Ling Jiexin, so I'll bet with you."

"Since the ninth brother agrees, then we will continue the discussion."

Hearing this, the elders nodded.

"The reason is to guard Guanglu Island, who will guard the Yellow Crab Island?"

"Mynah, I still sit on Yellow Crab Island, you can sit on Cangli Island."

Ling Jieran nodded, "Alright, you're still young, it's safer for you to sit on Yellow Crab Island."

The reason why he wanted to sit on Yellow Crab Island was because of his purpose, but he just didn't say it.

"The red crucian carp island is very important to the family, at least the monks in the middle stage of foundation building should be guarded. Who will come?"

There is a miniature spirit stone vein on Red Crucian Carp Island, and [-]% of Cangliling's annual income comes from that micro spirit stone vein, so Red Crucian Carp Island must not be missed.

Fortunately, Red Crucian Island is only 120 miles away from Cangli Island, and there is a monk in the middle stage of foundation building guarding it. Coupled with the large formation on the island, even if they can't stop the enemy, they can persist until the support of Cangli Island arrives.

"Uncle Eight, let me come."

"Ah."

Ling Yuansheng was an alchemist, and Ling Yuancheng was an alchemist. Under normal circumstances, both of them were based on Cangli Island.

"Yuanqiyuanxing, who of the two of you is sitting on Tieli Island?"

The iron island is covered with first-order high-grade spiritual plant iron wood. The iron wood is hard and is an important material for building ships. [-]% of Cangli Ling's annual income comes from it.

The iron wood that has reached the second level will give birth to iron wood hearts, which can be used to refine spiritual weapons.

Fortunately, Tieli Island is closer to Cangli Island, only 83 miles away, and it is enough for a monk in the early stage of foundation establishment to sit in town.

In the world of immortality, monsters, spirit plants, spirit insects, etc. are all determined by their rank when they are adults, but they can still develop to higher levels, and among them, spirit plants are the most powerful.

For example, when the iron wood reaches the first-order high-grade, it is regarded as the first-grade high-grade spiritual plant. However, as time goes on, the longer the iron wood lives, its grade will break through to the second-grade. It's at the third level...

Of course, Tielimu also has to advance to the next realm before his lifespan is exhausted, otherwise he will die of old age.

"Let me go."

"Well, let Yuanxing go to guard Tieli Island."

"Dengfeng Island needs a monk in the middle stage of foundation building to guard, let Yuanqing go."

There is also a miniature spirit stone vein on Dengfeng Island, but the miniature spirit stone vein is not entirely owned by the Cangli Ling Clan, but is jointly owned by the two Jindan families and the eight foundation-building families in the Floating Cloud Islands.

Because Dengfeng Island is not on the territory of the two Jindan families, the two families each account for [-]% of the share. The two Jindan families need to send a mid-stage foundation-building monk to guard Dengfeng Island, while the eight foundation-building families need to send one. A total of three base-building monks need to be sent to guard.

Ling Yuanqing was Ling Jieran's immediate junior, so she directly made the decision for her and let her guard Dengfeng Island.

After the major events are arranged, and some minor events are arranged, the elders meeting is not over.
