Family Cultivation: I Can Store My Ability To Understand-Chapter 43 - : Family Birth Plan (1)
Chapter 43: Family Birth Plan (1)
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
Seeing Chen Daoxuan’s expression of full trust in the merfolk clan.
Luo Li’s pretty face blushed slightly, and she had a better impression of Chen Daoxuan.
Thinking that she had misunderstood Chen Daoxuan, Luo Li felt a little shy and said, “”Human cultivator, I’ve known you for so long, but I still don’t know your name?”
These words stunned Chen Daoxuan.
Didn’t he tell her his name?
“My surname is Chen and my name is Dao Xuan. Miss Luo can just call me by my name.”
Chen Daoxuan cupped his hands.
“Good!”
Luo Li took a deep look at Chen Daoxuan. She turned around and jumped into the sea. The rest of the mermen followed closely behind.
“Chen Daoxuan, 1 remember your name.”
It was not until the merfolk clan had all disappeared that this soft voice sounded in Chen Daoxuan’s ear.
Sweeping his divine senses around, he found that the merman race had really left.
Chen Daoxuan immediately flew to Redwood Island and found a hidden cave.
He immediately poured out all the spirit stones in his storage bag.
Tens of thousands of spirit stones piled up on the ground, forming a small mountain. The overflowing spiritual light illuminated the entire cave as if it was daytime.
“One, two, three, four…”
Chen Daoxuan looked excited. Like a rich landlord, he carefully counted the spirit stones one by one.
If Luo Li saw this scene, she would probably be so angry that her nose would be crooked, and her good impression of Chen Daoxuan would be gone.
“…63,999,64,000!”
“Hu! 64000 Spirit Stones, just right!”
A satisfied smile appeared on Chen Daoxuan’s face.” We’ll make two transactions like this, and then go to Guang ‘an Prefecture to buy a set of Spirit Accumulation Array. Then, the spirit vein of Shuanghu Island will be settled.”
Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan became even happier.” Indeed, smuggling with the alien races is the real windfall.”
But soon after, Chen Daoxuan felt a sense of vigilance.
He believed that the Chen Family was not the only one who was making such a huge profit in the Infinite Star Sea. He had to be more careful.
“Why are you thinking so much? At least now, the merfolk clan only deals with my Chen clan. As long as they don’t expose themselves, my Chen clan will be fine. Moreover, if we want the clan to develop and grow, how can we be afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind?”
Shaking his head and laughing at himself, Chen Daoxuan threw the matter to the back of his mind.
He put away the mountain of spirit stones on the ground.
Chen Daoxuan flew out of the cave, identified the direction, and flew back to Shuanghu Island.
By the time Chen Daoxuan rushed back to Shuanghu Island, the sky was already bright.
After thinking about it, he did not go to the cave abode to cultivate, nor did he go to the magic tool factory.
Instead, he gathered all the higher-ups of the clan and held another clan meeting.
Changping County.
Chen Ancestral Hall.
In the huge meeting hall, the higher-ups of the Chen clan stood with their heads lowered. On the left were the higher-ups of the magic tool factory led by Chen Liangyu, and on the right were the officials of Changping County.
Chen Daoxuan’s gaze swept past Chen Liangyu and finally landed on the county magistrate of Changping County, Chen Zhi.
County Magistrate Chen, have you finished investigating the details of the tribe’s population that I ordered you to investigate? ”
“Young Clan Leader,”
Chen Zhi cupped her hands.”This subordinate has already completed the investigation ten days ago. After the county government’s review, it was found that our Chen clan has 1039 children under the age of ten. The number of young adults between the ages of 15 to 40 is the highest, reaching 1665. The number of people above the age of 40 is the lowest, only 969.
Among them, there are 914 adult males and 751 adult females in the clan. The population of the county…”
Chen Zhi skillfully reported the family’s population data again.
The results of this population review were the same as the data submitted by the county government ten days ago.
It proved that Chen Zhi had not slacked off during this period of time and had investigated the details of the tribe’s population.
Chen Daoxuan was most interested in the adult population and children under the age of ten.
In this world, men and women generally got married at a young age. Women usually got married around the age of 13 or 14, while men got married a little later, but generally, they would not be older than 15.
The Chen family had not been able to develop and expand in Shuanghu Island for so many years. On the one hand, they did not have enough cultivation resources and could not produce enough cultivators to protect their clansmen. On the other hand, the family’s industries were barren and could not support the huge family population.
A small family like the Chen Family would never dare to imagine having a population of tens of millions like the Zhou Family of Guang ‘an Prefecture.
After all, the mortals of the clan had to consume all kinds of resources.
Clothes, food, housing, and transportation all required resources.
Although cultivators didn’t care about these resources, they were important resources that affected the foundation of a cultivation family because they determined the size of a family’s population.
For example, the basic condition to maintain the population size-food!
Chen Daoxuan did not know how many spirit veins the Zhou family controlled, but everyone in Guang ‘an Prefecture knew that the Zhou family had hundreds of islands that were used to grow ordinary food.
Not to mention the cargo ships that came and went from Guang ‘an Prefecture, constantly providing food for the Zhou family.
It was precisely because of this food that the Zhou clan continued to grow, resulting in the population of the clan reaching tens of millions.
Chen Daoxuan also wanted to imitate the Zhou family’s development model, but he needed to make certain changes on this basis.
If the Chen family wanted to grow and expand, it was impossible to rely on the thousands of people on Shuanghu Island.
All the higher-ups in the clan knew this.
However, the family was in a difficult situation. They could not even guarantee the spiritual energy for the cultivators to cultivate. Blindly expanding the family population would only drag the family down completely.
As a transmigrator, Chen Daoxuan knew that if the population could not be converted into productivity, it would eventually become a huge burden for the family, not a help.
What was gratifying was that because of his existence, the Chen family had set off a little bit of industrialisation in the suburbs outside Changping County.
There was no doubt about the demand for population in the process of industrialisation.
Take the flying sword factory in the industrial zone for example.
However, the manpower required to operate this flying sword factory was far more than 15 people.
For example, the person who purchased the raw materials for the spirit ores, the person in charge of managing the factory, and the person in charge of packaging the Crimson Shadow Flying Sword, which was also the workshop that produced the sword case.
Chen Daoxuan sold flying swords to human cultivators, unlike the mermen, who didn’t even have packaging.
All of these required a large population.
Furthermore, as the flying sword factory expanded in the future, the population demand would also increase.
Therefore, not only did the Chen family want to expand their population, but Chen Daoxuan was also not prepared to use the expanded population to grow food.
However, food was also an important foundation for the family. The Chen family could not always rely on external purchases to maintain the family’s food consumption.
Chen Daoxuan already had a solution for this situation.
However…
For the time being, there were only two most important things for the Chen family:
First, cultivate a spirit meridian.
Second, expand the size of the family.
Chen Daoxuan planned to do these two things together.
The matter of the spirit vein had already been easily resolved. Now, and even in the future, expanding the clan’s population would be the basic policy of the
Chen clan.
At least within three hundred years.
The matter of expanding the Chen Clan’s population would not stop.
Thinking of this…
Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Zhi and said,” Magistrate Chen, 1’11 be heading to Guang ‘an Prefecture to purchase supplies for the family the day after tomorrow. In the two months that I’m gone, I want your county government to set up a family planning department. It’s specifically responsible for encouraging and guiding the family members to have children.
I’ll set a goal for you. Within three years, 1 want the family population to increase tenfold!”
Hearing this.
Chen Zhi’s expression changed on the spot. He said with a troubled expression,” But Young Clan Leader, there aren’t many women who can give birth in the clan. If we expand it by ten times, this…”
“I know that there aren’t enough women in the family now, but there will be enough soon.”
Chen Daoxuan said lightly..
