The Xu family follows Taoism and seeks longevity

Chapter 166 A succession of happy events (please subscribe!)
  The ancestor did not inform the family monks about their return from Kuixingfang City, so when the two arrived at the family, no one came to greet them.

Xu Zhiyu, who entered the Clan Mountain, observed along the way and found that the family had changed slightly since he left. The caves at the foot of the mountain were arranged in the early, middle and late stages from low to high, which seemed to be well-proportioned.

Moreover, there is a small spiritual field in front of each cave, where different varieties of spiritual grains and elixirs grow. The spiritual valleys are green, and the elixirs bloom with flowers of various colors, bathed in the sun. Swaying in the breeze, everything looks so harmonious and beautiful.

If there was nothing else to do, he really wanted to stop and take a good look, but at the urging of the ancestor, they went to the family meeting hall.

Xu Shengsheng, Xu Shengxiao and Xu Zhengji are all here. They seem to be talking about taking over the Li family's territory. It can be seen from the smiles on the faces of the three that things must be going smoothly.

Seeing Xu Deming entering the meeting hall, the three of them quickly stopped what they were talking about and stood up to greet him.

"I have seen my ancestor!"

"Free gift!"

While Xu Deming used his magic power to lift them up, he walked to sit on a chair in the middle of the hall and motioned for others to sit down.

"Shengsheng, I just heard you guys discussing accepting the Li family's territory outside the door. I wonder what the outcome will be?"

Hearing the ancestor's question, Xu Shengsheng, who had not sat firmly on his butt, stood up again, cupped his hands and said with a smile:

"Ancestor, the progress is going very smoothly. Now half of the Li family's territory has fallen into the hands of our family. We are ruling across the river from the Wei family and there is no conflict!"

"Well, you did a good job. This can be called a happy event. The expansion of the family's territory means more resources!" Xu Deming nodded and smiled, expressing satisfaction.

"This matter is the result of the Sixteenth Brother and Zheng Ji. My nephew does not dare to take credit for it!"

Xu Shengxun thanked him and named the person who had truly contributed.

"You are all great, keep up the good work!"

"Yes, old man!"

Xu Zhiyu was sitting there bored and interrupted:

"Grandpa, I see that you are so excited. It's not just this happy event, right?"

Xu Shengsheng looked at his grandson who had just returned from home for half a year and said with a smile:

"Haha, Yu'er has a good eye. Many happy events have indeed happened in the family. Let me tell you about them!"

Then he turned to face the ancestor and continued to report:

"First of all, the family's spirit testing conference was held three months ago. The results of this spirit testing were gratifying. Thirty-five clan members with spiritual roots appeared. This is a happy event that has not happened to the family in three hundred years!"

Thirty-five people? That's enough, Xu Zhiyu thought.

"And among them there is one with Earth Spirit Root, who has excellent qualifications!" Xu Shengsheng added.

After hearing that there were thirty-five clan members with spiritual roots detected this time, Xu Deming was happy but didn't say anything. But when he heard that one earth spiritual root was actually detected, he couldn't help but ask:
  "Oh? How many inches is its longest spiritual root? What are its attributes?"

"Ancestor, it is an earth spiritual root, nine inches long."

"This kind of qualifications are just as good as those of our ancestors back then. It's really incredible. Born, I need to pay special attention to this son's teachings so that he can grow up as quickly as possible!"

Xu Deming ordered that a clan member with good spiritual roots and qualifications could not be more important to the future of a family. If the family resources may not be enough in the past, it may not be able to vigorously cultivate them, but the Xu family is now prosperous. With clan members with superior qualifications, they will definitely I will do my best to cultivate you.

"Don't worry, ancestor, I'll leave this matter to Zheng Ji. It just so happens that the Earth Spirit Root tribesman is still a descendant of his mortal relatives, so it's natural for him to take care of him!"

Xu Deming nodded with satisfaction after hearing this. With the foundation-building monk's teachings, he would not bury the child's earth spirit root talent. Originally, he was prepared to teach it himself, but the family has too many affairs now, and he is really tired. Not open. “Grandpa, if that’s the case, wouldn’t I have many more brothers and sisters?”

Xu Zhiyu didn't know what he thought of and asked his grandfather.

"Haha, they are not all brothers and sisters, but also nephews and nieces!" Xu Sheng laughed loudly.

"How could it be? I remember that my eldest brother is not yet sixty this year, right? Could it be?"

"Yes, your third brother and eighth brother's children have all had their spiritual roots tested, so special family rules have been implemented. Most of these tested clan members' generations are based on the character 'Zhi', and a small number of them follow the character 'Ji'." !”

This is really the case, Xu Zhiyu thought.

The so-called special clan rule means that if the descendants of monks have tested their spiritual roots, their generation will be calculated according to the generation next to the monks of their father's generation, and they do not need to be passed down strictly according to the sixty-year generation rule.

This is also reasonable and reasonable. For example, in a few years, Xu Zhiyu’s grandfather finds a step-grandmother for him and gives birth to a child with spiritual roots. If we strictly follow the rules of sixty years and one generation, that child will have to call him clan. Uncle, but actually he should call the child uncle, which would be messy.

"Another happy thing is that the two foundation-building pills from the family have been distributed and taken by Zhikai and Zhifeng respectively. Among them, Zhikai has successfully built the foundation and is now stabilizing his cultivation in the cave! Zhifeng's retreat looks good. It goes very smoothly, and the possibility of successfully breaking through the foundation is not small!"

When talking about this, Xu Shengsheng was even more happy. When the family lacked capable manpower, the family had to add two more foundation-building monks. How could he not be excited?
  Whether it is mining the red copper mine or stationing in Fang City in the future, these require foundation-building monks, and the Qi Lian tribe cannot do these things.

"Okay, okay, it seems that our Xu family is really in peace after the beast wave, and there are many happy things happening!"

Xu Deming, who was sitting in the upper seat, laughed heartily, and everyone else also laughed. This laughter startled a pair of birds standing on the branches outside the meeting hall, and they all flew away in fright.

"Okay, now that we've finished talking about the family's happy events, let me talk about what Zhiyu and I learned from our trip to Kuixingfang City this time!"

After the laughter ended, Xu Deming continued.

"This time I sold the family to capture the monsters, and the total profit was 190,000 spirit stones. It happened to coincide with the auction held by the 'Taiyang Tower'. I used 70,000 spirit stones to buy another Foundation Establishment Pill!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his eyes to Xu Zhiyu and motioned for him to continue.

"I used the remaining 120,000 spirit stones to auction four foundation-building puppets to mine the red copper veins!"

Before he could finish speaking, Xu Shengxiao asked:
  "What kind of red copper vein, what's going on?"

The ancestor Xu Deming opened his mouth to explain the ins and outs of the matter, and explained to them the significance of this mine to their Xu family, and told them that he ordered Xu Sheng to keep it secret from them, because he was afraid that the news would leak out and attract trouble to the Xu family. The disaster of genocide.

The two also expressed their understanding of this. After all, a sky-red copper vein with an annual income of more than one million spiritual stones meant too much.

Xu Zhiyu did not say anything about the purchase of the Spiritual Beast Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, it was his own private matter and had nothing to do with the family.

Next, Xu Deming arranged for Xu Shengsheng and Xu Shengxiao to go to the red copper vein and put the foundation-building puppet there to mine. Xu Shengxiao stayed at the vein and at the same time brought the mined raw ore back to the family in batches.

As for the next smelting work, Xu Deming planned to arrange it to be completed in the family, because the smelting of this third-level ore requires the use of earth vein fire and giant iron smelting furnace artifacts, and these conditions are not available in the ore veins.

As for the construction of Taoyuan City, there is no rush. The construction of the City requires a large amount of investment in spiritual stones.

First of all, since the protective formation is at the third level, the second-level middle-grade spiritual veins on Heming Peak are not enough. They must be advanced to the second-order high-grade spiritual veins, which requires about 200,000 spiritual stones. .

Secondly, the construction of supporting facilities in the city requires not only spiritual stones, but also manpower. The number of people in the Xu family is definitely not enough. They also need to hire casual cultivators. Each of these piles requires spiritual stones, which is not a huge sum. Small expenses.

Therefore, we can only wait for a few years to mine the red copper veins, refine the raw ore into red copper, and then sell it for spiritual stones, so that the next work can be carried out smoothly.
