The immortals of the two worlds started from farming and refining pills
Chapter 9 Elders’ duties, renting Lingshan
In the evening, Li Qing came to the front yard of the Li Clan Ancestral Hall at an unhurried pace.
There is a three-story platform on the left side of the ancestral hall. On the top floor is a purple jade cushion, which is the seat of the clan leader.
The middle floor is the seat of the elders, which originally had three green jade cushions, and one more was added today.
And on the third floor, there are 27 yellow jade cushions, which are the seats for the clan members who are at the seventh level of Qi Refining and above, that is, the area where the cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining sit.
At this time, there are already two or three hundred people around the platform. In the seats for the late stage of Qi Refining, except for those who are away from home, everyone else has already taken a seat in advance.
"Ah Qing, the Ganlin fruit I planted at home always falls before it's ripe. Can you help me check it out when you have time?"
"Okay, tomorrow."
"Brother Qing, I'm going to explore the secrets of Xuefeng Lake recently. Do you still have the Water-Breaking Pill?"
"No. But it's very quick to refine. Prepare the materials, I'll start the furnace on the spot and refine a bottle for you."
"Uncle Qing, I got a Pure Heart Grass the other day, and I want you to refine a furnace of Barrier-Breaking Pill."
"There are a lot of auxiliary medicines for the Barrier-Breaking Pill. I'll write you a list. Let's prepare them first."
Li Qing chatted with them casually for a while.
Not long after, the clan leader Li Hui and the three elders also came to the ancestral hall, separated the crowd, and sat on the futon on the high platform.
After Li Hui sat down, he looked around, and the originally noisy environment suddenly became quiet. He pointed to the empty cushion in the middle: "Ah Qing, come sit up!"
Li Qing said yes, used the Wind Control Technique, and sat down on the empty jade cushion.
Li Hui got straight to the point: "Today, Li Qing, the 23rd generation descendant of the Li family, has cultivated to the ninth level of Qi Refining. According to the rules, he should be the elder of the family. According to the seniority, he ranks fourth."
Li Qing has been promoted to the ninth level of Qi Refining for several years. The others have been prepared for it and have no objection. They all bowed together: "Greetings to the fourth elder."
Li Qing bowed and returned the greeting: "Thanks to the family's training, I have achieved today's achievements. In the future, I will fulfill my duties and do my best for the family!"
The Li family is just a small Qi Refining family after all, with few red tape and no emphasis on rituals. With just a few words, Li Qing's inauguration ceremony was over.
Li Hui asked again: "Fourth Elder, do you have any idea about the position?"
Li Qing smiled and said: "Everything is arranged by the family."
Li Hui nodded with satisfaction: "I have discussed with the three elders before, and you will be the elder who transmits the skills. I wonder what you think?"
Li Qing was mentally prepared: "I will follow the four elders, I have no objection."
"Fourth Elder, since you are the elder who transmits the skills, you will have to spend more time and energy in teaching the children of the family in the future." The eldest elder Li Yao smiled and bowed to him.
The third elder Li Ye gestured to the disciples present: "The fourth elder has profound attainments in planting spiritual plants and refining pills. Those of you who want to study the skills of spiritual plant masters and alchemists should ask him more."
The disciples present naturally agreed.
After agreeing on Li Qing's position, everyone present began to discuss other matters.
The Li family is relatively open-minded in its discussions. Ordinary disciples can make suggestions, and cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining can vote on the items under discussion. The clan leader and elders hold the veto power.
However, most disciples know what is going on. They usually just listen but don't speak. Those who really speak are the backbone of the late stage of Qi Refining.
Li Qing had previously focused on his foundation building and didn't pay much attention to the family affairs. This was the first time he seriously participated in the discussion. He felt that there were so many things to worry about.
Li Zhe successfully built his foundation. He will hold a small banquet in Yanling Valley half a month later. The family will come to congratulate him. What level of gifts should they give?
Before, there was a sharp decline in the income of Qinghe Valley Market due to the open and secret struggles with the Zhang and Chen families. How to recover the losses?
The Great Zhou Kingdom went to war with the neighboring Great Le Kingdom. A group of cultivators in the late stage of Qi Refining were to be drawn to participate in the war. Who should be assigned?
All of these are difficult to handle.
However, these have little to do with Li Qing. Most of his lineage were mortals, and only he and Li Wei had embarked on the path of cultivation.
They couldn't get too much of the benefits. It was not the turn of him, an alchemist, and Li Wei, a rookie, to fight in the army.
Therefore, when making decisions, he followed the clan leader and expressed his opinion in line with the crowd, and that was it.
After discussing for an hour, the urgent matters were set, and some difficult issues were put aside, and the meeting came to an end.
Just as Li Hui was about to adjourn the meeting, a message flew in from outside the family residence and fell into his hands.
Li Hui used his spiritual sense to see, and his face lit up: "Great news! It turns out that someone in the upper sect is good at cultivation!"
When Li Yao heard him say this, he knew that it was Li Zhe who sent the message, and hurriedly asked: "I wonder what the joy comes from?"
Li Hui smiled and said: "Just now Zhe sent a message saying that Yanling Valley is interested in renting out several sacred mountains by Xuefeng Lake to plant spiritual plants for us Qi-refining families."
Xuefeng Lake is near Qinghe Valley and is the largest lake in Qingzhou. It is said that there is a third-level spiritual vein underneath, and spiritual energy is emanating from it all year round.
Several large forces such as the Great Zhou Dynasty, Tanyuan Fairy City, and Yanling Valley have all enclosed land by Xuefeng Lake.
Although the several hills occupied by Yanling Valley have no spiritual veins and are not convenient for opening caves, they are more than enough for planting spiritual rice and spiritual medicine.
The second elder Li Fang asked, "How much rent does Yanling Valley charge?"
"Only ten low-grade spirit stones are charged per acre per year." Li Hui stroked his beard and hesitated a little, "But it must be based on the entire mountain, and the rent for ten years must be paid first."
Low-grade spirit stones are mainly circulated among cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage. There are also medium-grade spirit stones, high-grade spirit stones, and top-grade spirit stones above them, all of which are currency units regulated by the Yuan Emperor.
Through the Yuan-Transformation Technique, natural spirit stones can be refined into cubes with a constant spiritual energy content at a very low cost. The production is simple and the identification is also very convenient.
"The rent is a concession." Li Fang frowned slightly, "but the rent is a mountain. With the family's financial resources, I'm afraid it will empty the family's assets."
He is in charge of the warehouse and knows the family's resources. In order to arrange a genuine foundation-building pill for Li Zhe, it cost a lot and it took more than ten years to catch his breath.
A mountain in Xuefeng Lake has at least one hundred acres, and the rent for ten years is more than ten thousand low-grade spirit stones. If you really have to take out such a large amount of spirit stones, the whole family will have to tighten their belts to live.
"But, for the development of the family, this mountain can't be rented out!" The third elder Li Ye expressed his support without hesitation.
The Li family of Qinghe Valley has been passed down from generation to generation. The clan members have tested the qualifications of low-grade and medium-grade spirit roots, and more and more of them have embarked on the road.
The small spiritual vein occupied by the Li family is no longer enough to support the growing number of cultivators. As a result, only those with medium-grade spiritual roots can enter the spiritual vein to practice.
The Li family is not good at management, and there is a big gap in the cost of spiritual stones. Those with low-grade qualifications have no way to practice, and they are very resentful. If this continues, people will lose their faith.
After everyone present discussed it, Li Hui finally made the decision: "Rent! You must rent! After the first two years of hard times, the family's livelihood will improve."
Li Qing received another task assigned by the family: after renting the mountain, select the appropriate spiritual plant varieties, plan the planting area, and then be fully responsible for the planting and maintenance of the spiritual fields and medicine gardens.
