Starting as a Son-in-law to Establish an immortal Family

At this moment, Lu Quanzhen stood up, his expression serious, and looked towards Lu Changsheng. With a slight bow, he said in a deep voice.

In his opinion, although the expenses for the Family's Great Formation and the Ji Family Spirit Land were high, the allowances for himself and his siblings, including the concubines, were also obviously excessive.

"Father, I also think so."

Seeing this, Lu Ping'an quickly stood up and said.

He knew that this kind of issue could easily upset his other brothers and sisters or concubines, so as the eldest brother, he spoke up to take some of the pressure off Lu Quanzhen.

Witnessing this, a few more children stood up and said the same.

"We'll maintain the status quo for this year. If the Family is still running at a severe loss next year, with expenses exceeding income, I will consider this matter."

Lu Changsheng raised his hand, indicating for everyone to sit down, and proceeded to say.

"Miaoyun, next year's main expenditures should be on talent development, especially in Puppetry and Wine Brewing. We can increase the recruitment and training of talents in these areas."

"As for Alchemy, Talisman Making, and Formation, these fields require precision rather than quantity. We will train those within the Family who have the ability, and if there is nobody talented in these areas, we don't need to force it."

Lu Changsheng addressed Lu Miaoyun.

In his view, relying solely on spiritual fields and fisheries, as well as the medicinal herb gardens, was certainly inadequate.

These three could only be considered primary industries, forming the basis for Bi Lake Mountain.

To earn money, it was necessary to depend on secondary industry, manufacturing.

Within Lu Changsheng's plan, once the secondary industries like Puppetry and Wine Brewing were on a stable footing and turned profitable, it would be about time to allow his children to venture out.

Start expanding through the Red Leaf Valley Market and the Family's current shops, and begin to branch out into the tertiary industry through their revenue.

"Yes, my husband."

Lu Miaoyun responded, nodding at his words.

This Family meeting was primarily to ensure that the concubines and children had a general understanding of the Family's current situation.

Otherwise, when it came to the Family's overall arrangements, Lu Miaoyun was already well aware.

"Alright, does anyone have anything to say? Any suggestions or ideas for the Family, feel free to speak up."

Lu Changsheng looked towards his concubines and children and said.

"Father, I have something to say..."

Lu Quanzhen stood up, bowed, and said.

He stated that the current situation of the Family was somewhat lax and casual, with all the children choosing their studies and tasks at will.

This was normal, but the Family should have regulations, requiring that after breaking through to the Fourth Level of Energy Refinement or reaching a certain age, one should start contributing to the Family.

Especially since the Family was newly established and expenses exceeded income, it was even more necessary for the Family's children to work and contribute to the Family.

After all, with spiritual fields, fisheries, and spiritual medicines inside, and stores and mines outside, there were many tasks that could be arranged.

Lu Changsheng looked at his son.

There was nothing wrong with what he said.

However, he hadn't given much thought to the harmony between brothers and sisters.

After all, the Family had quite a few children, as Lu Quanzhen described, with mediocre Spiritual Root Talent who did not take cultivation or tasks seriously.

"Quanzhen, you do have a point in this matter."

"However, it's only been a little over a year since the Xiahou Monie incident, and there might still be other Xiahou remnants watching our Family, so let's put the matter of going out on hold for the moment."

"As for the arrangement of internal affairs within the Family..."

Lu Changsheng, turning to Lu Miaoyun, continued, "Yun'er, for Family children who are sixteen years old and have not yet breached the Fourth Level of Energy Refinement, arrange tasks for them. These tasks will not only count towards Family contribution but also be assessed annually to decide the Family's allowance for the next year."

Since Lu Quanzhen had spoken to this extent, he felt that the ethos indeed needed to change.

After all, if there were too many lazy children, it would not only affect the ethos of the Family and the attitudes of others but would also upset those children who were seriously working.

While he could afford to support them, the Family was newly established, and the ethos had to be kept under control to prevent any problems.

"Yes, my husband."

Lu Miaoyun nodded and responded.
