Qinghe Immortal Clan.

Chapter 152 Foundation Building Family
Hearing Song Qingming's question, Huang Siyuan shook her head and said:
"I have some regrets, but it has nothing to do with you. Even if I don't come to the Song family, I will eventually be sent to other families. In comparison, being able to marry you, a foundation-building monk, is indeed the best thing I can do now. The choice was made.”

Hearing this, Song Qingming was really impressed by her. Huang Siyuan, a woman who looked very gentle in appearance, had indeed looked down on the warmth and coldness of the world of immortality for a long time, and knew how to strive for the best interests for herself.

Even when facing Song Qingming, a foundation-building monk, she was a little nervous, but she didn't have stage fright at all. She said what she wanted straight to the point, without concealing her purpose of coming for the spirit stone, even in person. She was still able to deal with Song Qingming's doubts calmly, and her courage alone far surpassed that of most monks of the Qing generation of the Song family.

After sending Huang Siyuan away, Song Qingming did not rush to deal with the spirit beast eggs, but called his sixth uncle Song Changfeng in again.

"Uncle Six, after eldest brother and the others arrive, you can go back first. We can all feel more at ease while you are at home.

Song Changfeng nodded and said, "Qing Ming, after we take over the two Qian's shops, should we rent them to others first, or keep them for ourselves?"

"It's better to keep it for yourself first. I'm just making a suggestion. Let's discuss this matter with my second sister later. After all, she has the final say on everything in the city."

In this Qinghe discussion, according to Lu Yuanfeng's arrangement, the Song family not only received 10% of the shares in Qinghefang City, but the three stores originally owned by the Qian family in Qinghefang also all belonged to the Song family. All the Qi Refining families have also been placed under the rule of the Song family. The Song family has been officially promoted to the foundation building family.

In the next five years, Song Qingming will stay in Qinghefang to assist Lu Yuanfeng in garrisoning Fangshi. Unless there is an emergency at home, he will not be able to escape easily.

Soon, under the leadership of Thirteenth Uncle Song Changxiong, a group of Song family monks came to Qinghefang. The reason why they appeared here was because Song Qingming and Sixth Uncle Song Changfeng had discussed it and transferred it to help guard Fang City.

In addition to the two foundation-building monks Lu Yuanfeng and Song Qingming, the entire Qinghefang now also has Qi Refining monks who are responsible for patrolling and guarding the city. There are a total of forty or fifty people, half of whom are casual cultivators recruited by Lu Yuanfeng in the city, and the other half. They are the Song family monks transferred by Song Qingming and Lu Yuanfeng's disciples.

The four major foundation-building families in Qinghe County rotate every five years and appoint at least one foundation-building monk and ten Qi-refining monks to help guard the city.

The biggest benefit for monks stationed in Fang City, in addition to daily patrolling and guarding, is that they don’t need to spend spirit stones on daily expenses while living in Fang City. Qinghefang, a second-level medium-grade spiritual vein aura, is very abundant, and there is no need to spend it here at all. Delaying their daily practice.

Song Qingming quickly moved his cave to a cave with the best spiritual energy in Qinghefang. The spiritual energy here was more than twice as rich as that in Wanniu Mountain. It was enough for his daily practice. He finally said goodbye. He had to spend his days consuming spiritual stones to practice. He had to thank the Huang family for taking the initiative to exchange the order of guarding and temporarily helping him solve this problem. However, a guarding rotation only lasted for five years. After five years, he He still has to leave Qinghefang, and then Song Qingming will still have to find a way to solve this problem of his daily practice. After building the foundation, there were not many spirit stones left. It was almost enough to go back to Funiu Mountain and sit around eating the mountains every day. Huang Siyuan also made some money off of the rest. If he hadn't made some spirit talismans recently to subsidize it, he would have been there long ago. I'm already about to ask Uncle Six for the spirit stone.

Qinghefang is relatively peaceful. Although several major foundation-building families will fight among themselves secretly, once someone dares to touch the common interests of Qinghefang, everyone will consciously put aside their conflicts and deal with the outside world in unison. Lu Yuanfeng has been stationed at Qinghefang for decades, and his several disciples are very familiar with various things below. Normally things would not alarm the two foundation-building monks. Song Qingming also rarely had a few years of worry-free practice.

After agreeing to the marriage, although the Huang family agreed to delay the marriage for two years, Huang Siyuan still occasionally asked the subordinates to send some spiritual food to Song Qingming's cave. Song Qingming was not so polite about this and would not refuse anyone who came. For him, it's nothing if not free. It's rare for him to taste such good craftsmanship.

Among the several shops that were transferred from the Qian family, except for one that was in a bad location and was rented out, the other two were taken over by the second sister Song Qingwan. The Song family's business in Qinghefang also expanded a lot immediately. In addition to alchemy, the second sister already had some talent in business. With the help of her fourth uncle and his family, the business of several shops of the Song family gradually got on the right track, and the Song family's reputation in Qinghefang gradually increased. After getting up, it can be regarded as gradually becoming a bit like what a foundation-building family should look like.

The 10% share obtained from Qinghefang can bring the Song family more than 500 spiritual stones in revenue every year. After excluding the expenses of the stationed monks, there can be a balance of at least more than 200 spiritual stones a year. These spiritual stones are all It is a fixed income that can be obtained every year, and it is very important for the long-term development of a family.

Although the Song family has been established for two hundred years, due to the limited space for mortals to live in the early stage, the population has been expanding very slowly, so there have not been many monks in the family. It was not until recent decades that some of the original Liu family's mortals were accepted. Coupled with the re-establishment of the living space for mortals in Mugu Town, the number of mortals below has slowly increased. Now the number of monks in the clan has also slowly increased.

I remember that when Song Qingming came down from the mountain, the total number of monks in the clan was only twenty. Now, only more than twenty years have passed, the number has exceeded thirty. However, compared with several other foundation-building families in Qinghe County, , their background is far from that.

Among the original major foundation-building families in Qinghe County, the Huang family, which ranks first, has more than 200 monks. There are more than 20 Qi-refining families below, and its strength is compared to the dozens of foundation-building families in the entire Jiangling County. Among the Ji family, the Huang family is at the forefront.

The Gao family also has more than a hundred monks, and there are more than a dozen Qi refining families under its command, but they are still much inferior to the Huang family. The Lu family, which ranks last, also has more than 60 monks. Although their family has a relatively shallow background. , but it is still a bit stronger than some of the newly promoted foundation-building families. Even the Qian family, which was just promoted to the foundation-building family more than 20 years ago, is much stronger than the current Song family.

To be honest, the Song family, not to mention being in Qinghe County, is ranked at the bottom among the nearly 100 foundation-building families in the entire Wei Kingdom. This is why Song Qingming and Song Changfeng had to continue to choose to rely on the Huang family.

However, they still have an advantage. Compared with some families that have already sunk and are unable to cultivate new foundation-building monks, Song Qingming is now less than fifty years old. It is a great opportunity to develop the family. As long as they are given more time, they can By cultivating new foundation-building monks, the Song family will sooner or later become a foundation-building family with profound foundations like the Gao family and the Huang family. The entire Song family, including Song Qingming, is looking forward to this future scene.
