Chapter 161: Chapter 124: The Clan’s 9 Basic Fraworks (Part 3)
At this, everyone turned to look at Cheng Zongyang.
Cheng Zongyang smiled. "Don’t worry, I have people on it. We can go get the grain anyti."
"Alright. That’s a critical problem for us to solve. Zongyang, you can take it from here," Cheng Guanghai said.
Cheng Zongyang nodded. "Over the past half-month, I’ve drafted a basic functional frawork. It consists of nine foundational halls: the dicine Hall, Martial Arts Hall, Library Hall, Storehouse, Hunting Hall, Sect Hall, Guardian Hall, Comrce Hall, and Ministry of Works Hall.
"First, the dicine Hall. It will handle treating illnesses, gathering herbs, and preparing dicinal baths. Second Uncle will be in charge of everything. There’s also a doctor nad Ning Zhi who will join the dicine Hall; Second Uncle can supervise him as he sees fit."
"Next, the Martial Arts Hall. This will be the place for Martial Arts cultivation and for storing our Martial Arts Techniques. In the future, anyone in the settlent who ets the requirents can spend Contribution Points to access them—I’ll explain Contribution Points later. Anyone who wants to pursue Martial Arts training can go to the Martial Arts Hall. I recomnd that the Clan Leader take charge of it."
"The Library Hall will be where people learn to read and write. There are two scholars among the people we brought back half a month ago; we can put them in charge. In addition to literacy, we must also educate the children on our clan’s ideology so they identify with its values. I also recomnd the Clan Leader oversee this in a coordinating role. I will find ti later to write up so guidelines on the Cheng Family’s core principles."
"The Storehouse will be responsible for tallying all incoming and outgoing supplies, managing finances, and so on. Second Aunt is literate and has experience, so I suggest she be put in charge. In the future, all resources produced within the clan territory will be centrally managed, and the Storehouse will also administer the Contribution Points system."
"I’ve already ntioned the Hunting Hall. I also propose we incorporate the Contribution Points system there. mbers will earn Contribution Points for gathering and hunting. This principle can be applied to all sorts of tasks, which will help motivate the Outsiders to work hard."
"The Comrce Hall will primarily handle our external business dealings. For now, Zongwen and I will be in charge. I’ll train him along with so of our younger cousins. Once they are proficient, I’ll hand full responsibility over to Zongwen, with our other younger relatives taking on various roles according to their abilities.
The Comrce Hall is tied to the clan’s economy—it’s our future pillar. Therefore, it must be led by our own family mbers. However, we can gradually screen for and recruit talented individuals to join the ranks.
The winery will be incorporated into the Comrce Hall. I’ve already made the arrangents. Li Ze used to work for the Li Family Winery in the County Town, and his brewing skills are superb. In the future, wine won’t just be for our own use in martial arts training and healing—it will beco one of our businesses."
"The Sect Hall will function as our hall of law. It will be responsible for punishing those who break our rules and supervising the behavior of the Outsiders. Any sign of trouble must be nipped in the bud. My eldest maternal uncle is a just man, and he’s been the one handling most matters concerning the Outsiders lately. I recomnd he take charge."
"The Guardian Hall will be responsible for security patrols within the clan territory and for future combat operations. My two older cousins and I will lead it, and its mbers will be trusted Martial Artists. Once my cousins are fully up to speed, I will gradually hand over responsibility to them."
"The Ministry of Works Hall. All our artisans—blacksmiths, carpenters, butchers, and so on—will be part of this hall. Its main purpose will be to cultivate talent and to handle research and developnt for all kinds of practical matters. I will also be in charge of this hall for the ti being."
Cheng Zongyang briefly outlined the frawork he had conceived over the past half-month.
"We don’t have many people right now, but our numbers will grow. After a long period of observation, we can then assign suitable individuals to the various halls as we see fit."
"Most importantly, we need to cultivate more skilled people. Carpenters, blacksmiths, butchers, cooks, doctors—we need a large number of them. Otherwise, once our population grows, I’m afraid we’ll be overwheld."
Everyone nodded in agreent as they listened.
’Once a frawork like this was established, every matter within the clan territory would have a clear place to be addressed. People would no longer have to scramble about, not knowing who was supposed to handle what.’
However, they also had so concerns.
Naly, that they had no experience themselves. If they mishandled their duties, they would bring sha upon the clan.
