Family Management Game In Immortal Continent

Chapter 67: The Li Family, The Big Boss Behind Tailin Town

In the real world, some families are simply small-scale merchants or peddlers, lacking defined roles. However, when a family develops specific planning and assigns distinct positions, it signifies their advancement to a higher level.

Just as he was feeling pleased that the Li family was on the right track, he saw Li Yaowen reporting the familyʼs progress in the ancestral hall.

”Ancestor, in the year that you havenʼt shown your spirit, Yaowen has lived up to your trust and has completely taken control of Tailin Town!”

Li Wei tapped his head.

Time was accelerated to its fastest speed, one hour in reality was equivalent to one year in the game world. His descendants had already gotten used to his occasional disappearances and occasional appearances.

”In their hearts, I must be very mysterious, right?”

Li Wei thought playfully in his mind.

Then he patiently listened to Li Yaowenʼs report.

It turns out that after that incident, Li Wei also had a long talk with Li Yaowen. After all, after Li Yaowen displayed her exceptional intelligence, Li Dalong basically handed over the management of the family business to Li Yaowen.

And in these past few years, after seizing the resources of the two major families in Tailin Town, Li Yaowen also started to make arrangements in the town.

The Li family didnʼt take away the dozen or so mineral veins in Tailin Town.

Li Weiʼs plan was to stay firmly in Green Valley Village, quietly developing through Tailin Town, with the main focus on remaining behind the scenes.

These mineral veins are entirely entrusted to the Chen and Su families to manage and develop, and the Li family receives 50% of the proceeds.

The Li family has also formed a secret alliance with the families of Tailin Town, pledging mutual assistance.

But in reality, both the Su and Chen families understand that the Li family is the true ruler of Tailin Town.

Now, the Li family can earn 20,000 to 50,000 low-grade spirit stones each year, after meeting their internal consumption needs.

”Ancestor, we have also recruited a Talisman Master and an Alchemist.”

When Li Yaowen said this, there was no joy on her face, instead, She frowned, ”Both of them are of the ninth rank, but seeing that our family has just risen, they demanded a high price, and I agreed to all of them. I originally planned to arrange apprentices to learn their skills from them, but both of them are old foxes, our apprentices havenʼt learned anything from them at all!”

”I plan to capture them. If they donʼt train alchemists and talisman masters for us, Iʼll kill them!”

”...”

Seeing the text above Li Yaoqingʼs head, Li Wei facepalmed.

If things were done this way, what would the Li family become? If outsiders got wind of this, the Li family could forget about recruiting any more retainers in the future.

In the end, he had the Violet Tempest Python speak on his behalf.

”Ancestor has finally responded to me!”

As the Violet Tempest Python, whose injuries had healed over the years, opened its eyes and hissed, Li Yaoqingʼs face lit up with a triumphant grin and said joyfully, ”Ancestor is truly farsighted! I will go find the apprentices they brought. Itʼs impossible for all of them to be old foxes, there will always be someone who canʼt resist temptation and will work for us!”

Li Wei nodded slightly.

In the current Li family, as long as someone isnʼt without spiritual roots, they can be cultivated into Qi Refining stage experts within three to five years by using Beast Blood Fruits and the medicinal potions refined by Li Yaoqing.

As for weapons and equipment, the Forging Pavilion has seven ʼBlood Altarsʼ built by Li Yaotie. After fulfilling conditions like ʼenchantmentʼ for forty-nine days, and then a few days of hammering, a set of low-grade spiritual weapons can be forged.

This is already enough to meet the equipment needs.

However, to make further progress, an alchemist is essential.

Especially for those at the Foundation Establishment stage, they need to compress spiritual Qi while absorbing it from heaven and earth. Li Dalong has been at the Foundation Establishment stage for several years, and his progress has been slow.

Currently, the Li family buys pills from outside every year to help Li Dalong compress his True Qi, and those pills are very expensive. In the future, the Li family will have more Foundation Establishment stage cultivators, so having someone who can refine pills becomes very important.

Besides that, Li Wei also understands that there are still many things that need to be dealt with if he wants the Li family to progress further. 

Especially Xu Cuihua.

When she came to the ancestral hall to pay respects, Li Wei also asked her how to advance her strength to the next stage, after all, Xu Cuihua is the strongest person in the Li family.

The result he learned was that as a Beast Tamer, Xu Cuihuaʼs way of increasing her strength is different from ordinary people. In addition to a large amount of spiritual Qi, she also needs to evolve her bloodline.

[Li Dalongʼs wife learned the conditions for the evolution of the Sky Moon Fox from its bloodline.]

[Condition 1: Demon King Blood Pill]

[Condition 2: Worship of Ten Thousand Foxes]

[Condition 3: ...]

The various conditions made Li Weiʼs eyes dazzle. The Demon King Blood Pill is naturally the essence of power from a Demon King equivalent to the Golden Core stage.

As for the Worship of Ten Thousand Foxes...Li Wei had no idea what kind of condition this was.

Similarly, for spirit beasts to break through...Especially for the Violet Tempest Python, The Ancestor Hall Guardian Beast.

This guy also needs a Demon King Blood Pill and needs to be tempered by both heavenly thunder and earthly fire.

”Ah, this is giving me a headache. It turns out that developing a family is so difficult.”

Li Wei scratched his head.

But for now, he didnʼt have any good solutions, he could only take his time to see if there were any good opportunities.

While watching the family develop, he also pondered how to take it a step further.
