From the heights of one of the Li family's tall towers, Li Yaozu surveyed the bustling village below. At twenty-three, he was already a pillar of the family, his youthful exuberance tempered by a growing sense of responsibility. His gaze fell upon the young men and women practicing martial arts in the central square.
"Another thirty guards this year," he murmured, a hint of satisfaction in his voice.
Beside him, in a wheelchair, sat a woman of delicate beauty. Despite her physical limitations, her eyes held a sharp intelligence. She was holding a book in her hand and while looking at the words in the book she cautioned "I'm afraid that's not feasible, brother,", her voice gentle but firm.
"The growing number of guards requires substantial resources. Each member needs a steady supply of Body Training Powder developed by the second sister, tax exemptions, and of course, a suitable wage."
She paused, her gaze shifting to the bustling village.
"One hundred and fifty guards are sufficient to maintain order within Green Valley Village. Expanding further could strain our resources and leave us vulnerable in other areas."
"Besides, there are fifty maids and servants in the family who also need their salary..."
Li Yaozu scratched his head impatiently, "Ah, I understand! So tell me, what should we do now? Silver Iron Forest can't go in either. Father went into seclusion to break through the foundation-building stage. I didn't know how difficult it is to manage a family! I've been managing the family for half a year, but I haven't done anything useful except training troops!"
Li Yaowen, a glimmer of mischief in her eyes, suggested, "Brother, do you want to make achievements? Perhaps... we should ask the ancestor for guidance."
...
At this time, Li Wei is still watching with a mixture of pride and satisfaction as the Li family continues to evolve and prosper.
The entire Li family has begun to take shape.
Even though the Silver Iron Forest cannot continue to be developed, it is still developing in an orderly manner.
There are already more than a dozen cultivators in the Li family's guard.
Especially this guy Li Yaotie, although he has always wanted to refine war puppets, he has never delayed in making weapons for the Li family!
He led the blacksmiths in Green Valley Village to build equipment day and night, and even the tailors were busy working.
Now the guards of the Li family are basically wearing chain armor made of black iron. Under the sunlight, the guards wearing black iron chain armor look very powerful. They also hold long swords made of black iron in their hands, and each of them carries a Triad bow made of black iron and animal tendon.
If more than a hundred guards fire their Triad bows at once, then even masters in the foundation-building stage, had to consider whether they could block all these arrows.
He is looking forward to the development of his family.
A box appeared in front of the screen -
[Your descendants have something to ask you for advice.]
The "Family Management Game" is becoming more and more user-friendly. Every time the Li family comes to look for him in the ancestral hall, time will automatically delay and the game will also provide reminders.
He quickly switched perspectives.
"Yaozu and Yaowen?"
Now, Li Dalong has reached the ninth level of Qi refining and has begun to retreat for focus cultivation, vowing not to leave until the breaking to the foundation stage. Li Yaoqing and Li Yaotie were purely model workers. They spent almost all their time refining medicine and weapons. They would only show up at the Li family when there was something that couldn't be solved.
As for Xu Cuihua, this woman is currently controlling a spirit beast in the Spiritual Beast Garden.
"Hiss!"
The Violet Tempest Python, which was sleeping in the ancestral hall, opened its eyes and neighed.
The brother and sister quickly knelt down to the memorial tablet, "Greetings to our ancestors!"
Li Yaowen said, "I would like to inform my ancestors that I have a bold idea and want to ask my ancestors for instructions."
"Oh? Do you have an idea?" Li Wei raised his eyebrows. He had been instructing the Li family on what to do for so long, and this was the first time someone had put forward ideas to him.
He typed it into the computer and said.
As the Ancestor Hall Guardian Beast, the Violet Tempest Python, neighed, Li Yaowen said:
"Since we can't continue to develop the Silver Iron Forest, maybe we should change the direction and do business with Tailin Town. After all, we have accumulated a large number of animal skins over the years. Many useless herbs were collected in the Silver Iron Forest and piled up in the warehouse."
"Huh?"
Li Yaozu stared at his sister in disbelief, "Sister, I've been deceived by you."
