Clan Cultivation: Starting from Beast Taming Chapter 232: Chapter 145: Open Sources and Throttle, The Pro

```

"Finally, there is the trade inco with other forces, and there is great potential for growth in this area!"

Zhou Chun said this and his gaze involuntarily turned towards the Third Elder, Zhou Daoquan.

"The Zhou Family's trade inco with other forces had previously been limited to large quantities of the family's specialty dicines and Demon Beast rations."

"However, the Demon Beasts bred by our Zhou Family can also beco best-sellers!"

"I've done so rough calculations, and with the current rate of increase in the cultivator population within our family, many of the Demon Beasts we breed will reproduce faster than our population grows."

"For high-quality Demon Beast species such as the Erald Crown Flying Serpent, Octagonal Aquatic Deer, Rockarmored Python, and Redfla Wolf, as long as they are provided with sufficient food, their reproduction rate will be higher than that of ordinary Demon Beasts."

"If the Beast Garden can supply even just ten cubs of various low-level Demon Beasts per year for outsiders to contract, it could bring in thousands of Spirit Coins for the family!"

After he finished speaking, the gazes of the other Elders also turned towards the Third Elder, Zhou Daoquan.

The Zhou Family's Beast Garden had always been under his managent, and he was the one carrying out the various breeding tasks.

He knew better than anyone whether it was possible to increase the output of Demon Beast cubs in the Beast Garden.

Facing the attention of the others, Zhou Daoquan pondered for a mont before speaking, "As for the Octagonal Aquatic Deer, let's put that aside for now. Their population is currently insufficient even for the family's own use, and it's not suitable to sell them off until the population exceeds fifty."

"As for the other Demon Beast cubs, it is indeed possible to sell a portion for profit; ten heads per year should not pose a significant problem!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Chun imdiately said, "That's good then, it can be considered opening up a new channel for revenue."

At this mont, the Fourth Elder, Zhou Jiarui, suddenly looked contemplative and said, "Speaking of which, how is the Redfla Vajra Ape doing now? It's been seven or eight years; it should have beco a first-grade superior Demon Beast by now, right?"

"The Redfla Vajra Ape did indeed beco a first-grade superior Demon Beast last year, but the creature has not fully matured yet and has not mated with a female Red-Tailed Monkey!"

Zhou Daoquan continued, "However, it should happen soon; in three years at most, one year if it's fast, it should challenge the Vajra Monkey for the position of Monkey King!"

Hearing this, Zhou Jiarui sighed softly, "Well then, I hope it will pass on its bloodline inheritance so that our Zhou Family can truly have another powerful war beast!"

Zhou Daoquan had previously outlined two strategies for breeding the Redfla Vajra Ape population.

Several years have passed, and the Vajra Monkey has neither bred new Redfla Vajra Apes with the Red-Tailed Monkeys nor produced new Vajra Monkeys.

The only hope for truly establishing a Redfla Vajra Ape population now rests on that Redfla Vajra Ape.

Zhou Chun then continued to speak, "As for revenue generation, the thods we can implent right now are these."

"Now let talk about cost-cutting!"

"Cutting costs is actually more challenging than generating revenue, as the family has already been saving wherever possible, reducing expenses in all areas!"

"The only cost-cutting asures I can think of are two. First, is to change the future rewards for family tasks by replacing the purely virtue-based awards with a mix of virtue points and preserved treasures from the treasury to clear out so of the useless stock."

"Second, is to encourage clan mbers to accumulate virtue points to exchange for Foundation Establishnt Spirit Items in the future."

Cutting costs does not an reducing the welfare benefits of clan mbers!

Zhou Chun was very clear on this point.

The unity of the family, apart from blood relations, cos from the clearly superior welfare benefits compared to Loose Cultivators enjoyed by the Family Cultivators."

Reducing welfare benefits for clan mbers is sothing that should not be resorted to unless absolutely necessary!

Even so, after listening to his cost-cutting suggestion, the Second Elder, Zhou Chongshan, still said, "Exchanging for Foundation Establishnt Spirit Items is a matter that perhaps requires caution!"

```

"The exchange for the Spirit Ascension Fruit previously caused quite a stir within the Zhou Family, and while using it to lure clan mbers to accumulate virtue could indeed help to alleviate the risk of a crisis, what if a clan mber really manages to accumulate enough virtue through borrowing? How can we actualize it for him?"

Foundation Establishnt Spirit Items are not easy to obtain!

Any kind of Foundation Establishnt Spirit Item, even sothing like the Spirit Ascension Fruit, depends on fate and luck to acquire.

Therefore, Zhou Chongshan's point was not without foundation.

But since Zhou Chun had made this suggestion, he must have also considered this.

He imdiately said, "Therefore, we need to and a family rule; when a Family Cultivator personally accumulates five thousand family virtue contribution through welfare offerings and task rewards, they can beco a seed for Foundation Establishnt in the family, enjoying the priority right to exchange for Foundation Establishnt Spirit Items!"

"We can even include inheriting the leftover virtue of a deceased parent to increase the loyalty and sense of belonging the Family Cultivators have towards the family!"

"In this way, if there is still soone who can accumulate six to seven thousand family virtue contributions, it ans he must be widely trusted and admired by clan mbers. Then would it not be justified for us to do our utmost to help him establish his foundation?"

After hearing these words, Zhou Chongshan also fell silent, lost in thought.

A while later, before Zhou Chongshan could speak, Clan Leader Zhou Daoyi applauded and exclaid, "Brilliant! This plan is brilliant and makes perfect sense."

"However, to modify the family rule, we still need the approval of the Supre Elder!"

Once the Clan Leader expressed his support, Zhou Chongshan by his side frowned but ultimately did not raise any objections.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun followed up by saying, "Naturally, all matters discussed here today should eventually be presented for the Supre Elder to review, and only after his approval should they be implented!"

"Then, do you have anything else to say, Zhengchun?"

Zhou Daoyi looked at Zhou Chun and asked, with an encouraging look on his face.

He knew Zhou Chun very well and was aware that Zhou Chun would not have made such a grand gesture today just for bringing up these difficulties and solutions; there must be other matters at hand.

From Zhou Chun's performance earlier in the day, it was apparent that he had co fully prepared.

So, he was also looking forward to what Zhou Chun had to present next.

In response to his supportive approach, Zhou Chun was very grateful and imdiately seized the opportunity to say, "The Clan Leader is astute. I would like to take this chance to submit so suggestions regarding the internal reforms of our family!"

Hearing him ntion "reform" again, Elder Zhou Chongshan's eyebrows twitched, and he fixed his eyes on Zhou Chun, saying, "Oh? What do you wish to reform? It's not those things from last ti, I hope!"

Zhou Chun, as if he had anticipated Zhou Chongshan's reaction, imdiately replied with a smile, "Elder Chongshan, rest assured, the reforms I'm proposing this ti are not that drastic!"

"Is that so? Then I shall listen with great interest," Zhou Chongshan said with a fleeting look of curiosity in his eyes.

At that mont, Zhou Chun clasped his hands and bowed to the various high-ranking mbers of the Zhou Family present in the hall, saying, "Elders, I've always believed that our family's original internal managent structure is sowhat inefficient, dragging down the efficiency of our operations and needlessly wasting a lot of manpower and resources."

"Furthermore, after my extensive surveys and visits with many clan mbers, I've also found that so wish to contribute to the family and even have the ability to do so, but they've been frustrated by the lack of opportunities to work in positions that suit them!"

"Therefore, I would like to propose improvents to every aspect of our family's internal structure, allowing these clan mbers to utilize their own talents in positions they are passionate about and excel at!"

He did not wait for the Elders to ask him how he planned to reform, but instead proactively disclosed his plan.

"I plan to withdraw the powers of the Peak Masters of each peak and establish within the family five major departnts: the Internal Affairs Hall, External Affairs Hall, Hundred Beasts Hall, Hundred Arts Hall, and Hundred dicines Hall, responsible for the operation of all family affairs. Each hall will have one Steward and several staff mbers, with personnel changes scheduled periodically!"

"In addition, three separate Stewards will be appointed, in charge of finances, supervision, and punishnts respectively, reporting directly to the Clan Leader."

"All Stewards are accountable to the Clan Leader!"
