Wang Shouye nodded and asked everyone, "Elders, if there's anything else you want to add, you can tell me."
First Elder asked, "Then what about the mortals in the clan? There are more than a hundred thousand people now. With so many people, we have to manage them, right? "
Wang Daoyuan answered, "I want to settle the matter of the cultivators first and then set up a General Affairs Hall to manage the ordinary clansmen.
Since First Elder asked, I'll tell you in advance.
The clan's management of the mortals is also very careless.
The various mortal settlements are also divided into villages, and the clan sends people to patrol them regularly.
When managing the mortals, the cultivators also have to deal with the village chiefs directly.
If we want to find disciples with spirit roots, we have to send clansmen to every village. It's really too much of a waste of time.
Therefore, I plan to manage the mortals in the clan's territory separately. The neighboring villages will be divided into townships and have a village chief to manage them.
The neighboring townships can also be set up as towns and have a town chief to manage them.
The areas near Jadespring Peak aren't too dangerous and can be completely left to the mortals.
The townships in the border areas can be overseen by the stewards of the Guardian Hall.
The management of these townships and the recruitment of disciples with spirit roots can be left to the General Affairs Hall.
If the clan has any orders, the General Affairs Hall only needs to inform the town chiefs.
If the clan wants to select clansmen with spirit roots, they only need to notify in advance and let the ordinary clansmen in the townships and villages bring disciples of suitable age to the town.
The cultivators only need to go directly to the town and test these disciples, saving a lot of effort.
Of course, if these mortal town chiefs and village chiefs deceive their superiors and use their power for personal gain, then they can be handed over to the Disciplinary Hall. "
Fourth Uncle Wang Shouyuan asked, "Then how do we manage the mulberry silkworms? The planting and harvesting of the White-Jade Spiritual Mulberry are under the control of the Spiritual Plant Hall.
Raising the spirit silkworms and extracting the silk are not under the control of the Spiritual Plant Hall. This is very troublesome.
In addition, there are long-eared rabbits, jade-boned phoenix-tailed pheasants, golden rock antelopes, and forest foals used for transportation.
If we don't care about these things, the clan's spirit fields will be ruined by them. "
Wang Daoyuan said with a smile, "Thanks to Fourth Uncle's reminder, I was only thinking about solving the big problem and almost forgot about these things.
For the industries that are currently small in scale and not enough to establish a hall, we can establish a small hall and call it a department.
For example, for the mulberry silkworm industry, we can establish a spirit silkworm department.
For the management of spirit beasts, a Spirit Beast Division could be established.
When the scale was large enough, it could be directly upgraded to a hall.
The manager of the Spirit Silkworm Department and the Spirit Beast Department could be called a general manager, and they could also manage many managers.
The position of Head Chief was held by someone who was not an Elder. His title and treatment were lower than that of an Elder, and his authority and treatment were equal to or slightly lower than that of an Elder.
Like the elders, the managers were directly managed by the Great Elder.
I suggest that the various halls don't have to be managed by elders.
Some of the clansmen were talented in management, but their cultivation and contributions to the clan were not enough for them to become elders. They could also temporarily take on the role of chief steward and manage the hall.
If there were areas where the authority of each Hall and each Division overlapped, they could be further divided.
By the way, Ninth Great Uncle, how many cultivators are there in the clan right now? "
Ninth Great Uncle clearly remembered such important data. He didn't even need to think about it. "At present, the clan has a total of eighty-five cultivators.
Among them, there were still ten people from the 'Zhi' generation, twenty-five from the 'Shou' generation, and over thirty from the 'Dao' generation.
In addition, there are also cultivators who have married into the clan or married into the clan, a total of 18 people. "
Wang Daoyuan asked, "I heard that mortals whose ancestors were cultivators had a probability of giving birth to a child with spiritual roots. The highest was one in ten, and the lowest was one in a thousand.
Our clan has more than a hundred thousand mortals. Even if a large portion of the clansmen were the descendants of more than thirty generations of our ancestors, the probability of giving birth to a cultivator dropped to one in a thousand.
At the very least, there should be several hundred cultivators, but the clan's present cultivators are less than a hundred. What's going on? "
The Great Elder replied, "There is indeed a saying that the probability of giving birth to a child with spiritual roots is higher among the mortal descendants of cultivators.
However, this is not only a matter of bloodline, but also a matter of living environment.
The close relatives and descendants of cultivators live in places rich in spiritual aura. Occasionally, they can eat spiritual grains and accumulate some spiritual aura in their bodies.
Their children are influenced by the accumulated spiritual aura in their bodies, and the probability of them having spiritual roots is higher.
If they live in places with thin spiritual aura and can't eat spiritual grains, the probability of their descendants having spiritual roots is not much higher than that of ordinary mortals. "
Wang Daoyuan pondered for a moment and said, "It seems that in order to increase the number of cultivators in the clan, we must first gather the clansmen in places rich in spiritual aura.
In addition, the close relatives of the clan's cultivators, as well as the wives and concubines of the cultivators, after they become pregnant, the clan will provide them with spiritual grains for free.
With the clan's financial resources, it is impossible to provide for all the clansmen. We can only give priority to the close relatives of the cultivators.
These matters can be handed over to the General Affairs Hall to manage in the future. Right now, we can only let the Great Elder manage it.
In the future, the treatment of the clansmen will also have to change. According to the amount of contribution, they will be given a monthly allowance.
However, these matters are rather detailed and can't be discussed clearly in a short period of time.
It is better to first set the general framework and then slowly improve it later.
If there are no problems, then we will assign managers to each hall and the two divisions.
I have been outside for a long time and know very little about the clan's internal affairs. I am also unable to determine which elder is suitable for which hall. It is better for the clan head and the elders to discuss and decide. "
After he finished speaking, Wang Shouye asked, "Elders, do you have anything else to add? If not, then we will discuss which hall each elder will be in charge of. "
None of the elders had any objections. Following this, they discussed the authority of each elder.
Spiritual plants, pills, and talismans. These three halls were purely technical institutions. Those who didn't understand couldn't manage them.
Fourth uncle Wang Shouyuan was the spiritual plants elder and managed the spiritual plants hall.
Seventh uncle Wang Shouhong was the pill elder and managed the pill hall.
Fifth uncle Wang Shouyi was the spirit talisman elder.
Wang Shouyi was ninth uncle's son and Wang Daocheng's father.
Wang Shouyi was very similar to Wang Zhide. His cultivation talent wasn't bad and his talisman talent was also above average.
At this moment, he was both peak Qi Disciple and a second level lower talisman master.
It was natural for him to be the spirit talisman elder.
Tenth uncle Wang Zhihe was directly promoted to be the commerce elder and managed the commerce hall.
The guardian hall and the transportation hall both needed to be strong enough in fights of magical powers.
In addition, the transportation hall also needed to be familiar with the waterways.
These two positions were best left to eighth uncle and ninth aunt. Ninth aunt guarded the northern part of the clan all year round and had little to do with water transportation.
Thus, ninth aunt Wang Shoujing was the guardian elder and eighth uncle Wang Shoujiang was the transportation elder.
The disciplinary hall was temporarily replaced by Wang Daoyuan.
The finance hall was too important and there were no elders skilled in finance, so it could only be managed by the great elder.
The mining hall was the most troublesome. It included searching for ores, mining, building various facilities, and managing the protection and harvesting of the forest.
The most troublesome work was naturally left to the person who needed the most experience.
Wang Daoyuan wasn't willing to be the clan leader, so the position of the next clan leader fell to Wang Daochang.
Thus, Wang Daochang was the mining elder and managed the clan's mines and forest.
The general manager of the spirit beast division was fifteenth uncle Wang Shouchang.
Wang Shouchang's cultivation talent was above average. He was over sixty years old and his cultivation had reached the eighth level of Qi Disciple.
He didn't practice the hundred arts of cultivation. He was only interested in raising spirit beasts and was in charge of raising the Forest Foals.
Later, Wang Daoyuan got a few spirit beasts and they were all under his management.
The Wang family didn't have any inheritance of raising spirit beasts. Now that there were more spirit beasts, Wang Daoyuan gave him the Spirit Controlling Mystic Manual that he had obtained from Zhang Dacheng after simplifying it.
Wang Shouchang had no objections to managing the spirit beasts.
The choice of the general manager of the Silkworm Department caused a huge controversy.
