I Am Actually the Old Patriarch of the Xiao Family

After most of the power in the family left, Xiao Zhan chose a few old people to be elders, responsible for some important tasks.

For example, guarding the Dou Qi Pavilion, and managing the family's business.

After all, they eliminated the other two families and took over a lot of new business.

These businesses have to be done by people, and these old people in the Xiao family are good at these things. They have all sat in these positions before and then retired.

People don't have to worry, but money is needed.

After taking over a new business, the oncoming is not income, but lack of money.

For this, Xiao Lin has no good solution.

When he originally read the book, he thought that the economic system of Dou Qi Continent was broken, and there was only one type of currency in circulation, but the purchasing power of gold coins itself was not low.

After the actual investigation, he found that the economic system of this world is also very reasonable, but it was never reflected in the book.

Under the gold coins, there are silver coins, as well as small copper coins.

It's just that the opening scene in the original book is a big scene, and Xiao Yan has never dealt with the issue of money. He buys things with gold coins.

Those herbs, magic cores, are naturally worth the price.

And ordinary people's daily rice, noodles, dishes, etc., cannot be purchased with gold coins.

All in all, although this money system is relatively simple, it can already meet the needs, and it is basically impossible to do anything on it.

And this question can only rely on Xiao Zhan and several elders to think about it.

Xiao Lin really couldn't help much.

He could get some high-level magic cores to exchange for money, but it was a drop in the bucket.

Hundreds of thousands of gold coins, for Wutan City, can only be regarded as small money.

In Wutan City, the shops that originally belonged to the other two big families are still staffed, but now they are all owned by the Xiao family.

And store maintenance, product loss and manpower expenses, these are all problems that the Xiao family needs to face.

There are still so many children and old people in the family to support, and the wages of maids and guards to be paid.

Xiao Zhan and the others have been busy with this recently. They are trying to raise money. Only by finding a stable channel to obtain living money can they be completely stabilized.

In order to show his ability, Xiao Zhan deliberately told Xiao Lin not to help. Although Xiao Lin felt that this was meaningless, but his son was happy, so he just let him go.

When something goes wrong, it's not too late for him to play again.

"Grandpa, the jade box and jade bottle you prepared are ready, shall we start now?"

"Not urgent."

Xiao Lin looked at Xiao Yixian's hand holding the tool, obviously already trying to do it.

And if the little doctors and immortals are already like this, then...the three children may not be particularly quiet.

"Don't dig the medicine first, you won't do it. If you hurt the medicine, you will be punished."

"Don't worry, Grandpa, we didn't do it, we were practicing with the wildflowers over there."

"Then go, wait for your aunt to finish digging for herbs."

"Okay, grandpa."

Although some herbs grow in this valley, there are not many, and most places are still full of wild flowers and weeds.

The reason why Xiao Lin asked them to pick these herbs was because he wanted to transform this valley.

After all, the clansmen came to live here, and it would not be appropriate to temporarily excavate on the mountain wall.

And most importantly, after such a long period of exploration, Xiao Lin has gradually figured out the habit of the system.

The system is not a fortune-telling boy, it is a very fair trading field.

As long as the things Xiao Lin obtained are above the horizontal line, they can be recovered as contribution points. As long as the things Xiao Lin does are beneficial to the family, they can also get contribution points.

In addition to the contribution value, there are also items produced by the system.

For example, Hua Wangdan and his camouflage suit.

And if Xiao Lin has any questions and wants to get answers, the system can also answer them.

It's just that the question is limited.

His question must be related to the family, if it is his personal question, there will be no answer.

Contributions are also required to get answers.

In addition, Xiao Lin can occasionally chat with the system.

Although the system is relatively cold, Xiao Lin said three words, the system may only say one word.

But many times the latter will reveal some information in the chat, and this information is very important to Xiao Lin.

Just like this time, when he was worried about how to build the Xiao family land, the system gave him a clear path.

There is a tree in the Monster Beast Mountains called Giant Banyan. This kind of tree is very huge. It often looks like a single tree forming a forest, and the aerial roots it grows are also several meters thick.

If used properly, one of such air roots can build a small attic.

036 Valley Tree Planter

But the problem is, this tree species is now on the verge of extinction.

There used to be such a giant banyan tree. In the Warcraft Mountains, it occupied the top of the mountain and turned into a forest. Later, it was burnt down by a fifth-order fire-attribute Warcraft.

After that, no tree species of the same family has grown up.

It grows slowly and occupies a large area in the later stage. It is difficult for such plants to develop in the Warcraft Mountains.

After all, there are so many plants here. It is really difficult for a tree, especially an ordinary plant, to successfully occupy such a large place.

And although the Warcraft Mountains are vast, not all places are suitable for this plant to grow.

So, this common tree eventually reached the point where it is now on the verge of extinction.

When this news came out of the system panel, Xiao Lin immediately poured a basin of cold water on him.

He knew that it was not so simple for the system to suddenly provide him with free news.

"Then what to do? Do you have a solution?"

Xiao Lin watched Bai Yao lead the children to dig medicine from the top of the valley, but he was actually immersed in the sea of ​​​​qi space and wrangling with the system.

He believed that since the system had given the news, there must be a way.

Immediately afterwards, three options popped up on the panel of the system.

[Giant banyan tree species, each with a contribution value of [-]. According to the valley area selected by the host, the estimated growth time is ten years. 】

Too long to use.

Xiao Lin then looked down.

[Juvenile giant banyan saplings have a contribution value of [-]. According to the area of ​​​​the valley, the estimated growth time is three years. At the same time, the giant banyan tree may gain wisdom after it grows. 】

Three years is still too long.

There is another option, Xiao Lin estimates that this should be a half body, or a complete body.

He pointed to the last option, and sure enough, it was as expected.

[Adult giant banyan tree, [-] contribution points, will fill the valley within three days after planting, and the time can be shortened with fighting qi. The specific shortening time varies according to the quality of fighting qi. 】

The contribution value of [-] in three years is a bit expensive.

Xiao Lin thought for a while, and suddenly realized that if he didn't buy it, he would have to dig a rock wall to live in in a short period of time.

Of course, for the vast majority of clansmen, it is not a problem to dig a rock wall to live, and the fighting qi can protect them from the damp and cold air in the cave.

But this choice may upset a lot of people.

Everything I do now is for the sake of the future, and Xiao Lin understands this very well.

If so, then buy it.

When he finishes this matter, the construction family may be able to complete an achievement, and then these contribution points will come back.

There is still plenty in hand now, so there is no need to save too much.

Moreover, there is still a certain chance that this tree can obtain spiritual wisdom. He does not expect this thing to have any powerful abilities like a Bodhi tree, but if it can have some spiritual wisdom and autonomous activities, it can be regarded as a protection of the family. means.

Xiao Lin's ability to act is very strong. When he made up his mind to exchange it, he immediately exchanged it.

At this time, Bai Yao and the others had almost finished excavating the herbs in the valley.

In fact, to a certain extent, the valley that Xiao Lin picked was a canyon.

Because of the narrow and long terrain of this valley, only one side can be easily passed.

The remaining three sides are cliffs.

Unless a Douwang powerhouse can fly down from above, at the height of this cliff, even Dou Ling can hardly jump down from above without any tools.

"Father, we're almost done. Where do we put these herbs?"

"give it to me."

Xiao Lin took the jade boxes and put them into the system backpack. The herbs he planted in the cave house in the back mountain of Xiao's family also brought them along this time.

After he planted the giant banyan tree in the center of the valley, the herbs could be planted next to the main trunk.

As long as it is well controlled, herbs and giant banyan trees can coexist.

What Xiao Lin is thinking about now is that if the giant banyan tree gives birth to spiritual wisdom, how can it be controlled?

You can also forcibly suppress monsters, but plants are very difficult, especially with such large plants.

For a long time to come, the people of the Xiao family will live in it, which is equivalent to handing over their lives to this tree.

If he can't fully control the giant banyan tree, then Xiao Lin is not at ease, but he doesn't want to study, because it is conceivable that the system will charge a fee for answering questions.

Xiao Lin can spend [-] contribution points to buy a tree species, but if he consumes a little more, he is not willing to bear it.

This is a question of gain and loss. Although he has a lot of contribution value, it does not mean that he can spend it at will.

Besides, how much is his contribution value now?
