Seeing Chen Daoxuan's appearance of fully trusting the merpeople.

Luo Li's pretty face flushed slightly, and she felt even more fond of Chen Daoxuan in her heart.

Thinking of her misunderstanding Chen Daoxuan, Luo Li was a little shy, and said, "Human cultivator, I have known each other for so long, but I still don't know your name?"

These words made Chen Daoxuan stunned for a while.

Didn't he tell him his name?

"My surname is Chen and my name is Daoxuan. Miss Luo calls me by my name."

Chen Daoxuan bowed his hands.

"Okay!"

Luo Li took a deep look at Chen Daoxuan, turned over and jumped into the sea, followed by the rest of the mercenaries.

"Chen Daoxuan, I remember your name."

It wasn't until all the mermen disappeared that this soft voice sounded in Chen Daoxuan's ears.

Divine Consciousness swept around and found that the merpeople were really gone.

Chen Daoxuan immediately flew to Sequoia Island and found a hidden cave on the island.

Immediately dump out all the spirit stones in the storage bag.

Tens of thousands of spiritual stones were piled up on the ground, and they suddenly piled up into a small mountain. The overflowing spiritual light illuminated the entire cave like day.

"one two three four......"

Chen Daoxuan was excited, and he counted the spirit stones carefully one by one, like a rich landlord.

If Luo Li saw this scene, she would probably turn her nose up and her good impression of Chen Daoxuan would be gone.

"... Sixty-three thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine, sixty-four thousand!"

"Huh! 64,000 spirit stones, just right!"

A satisfied smile appeared on Chen Daoxuan's face, "This transaction is done twice, and then I go to Guang'an to buy a set of Yun Ling Grand Formation, and the spiritual veins of Shuanghu Island will be settled."

Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan became more and more happy, "Sure enough, smuggling and trading with foreigners is the real profiteering."

But immediately, Chen Daoxuan felt a sense of vigilance in his heart.

This kind of huge profits, he believes that the huge Wan Xinghai must not only be done by his Chen family, he must be more careful.

"Why do you think so much? At least now the merpeople only trade with my Chen family. As long as they are not exposed, my Chen family will be fine. Besides, if you want your family to grow and develop, how can you be afraid of wolves and tigers."

Shaking his head and laughing at himself, Chen Daoxuan put the matter behind him.

Put away the spiritual stones piled up on the ground.

Chen Daoxuan flew out of the cave, identified the direction, and flew back towards Shuanghu Island.

By the time Chen Daoxuan rushed back to Shuanghu Island, the sky was already bright.

After thinking about it, he didn't go to the cave to practice, nor to the magic weapon factory.

Instead, they convened all the senior members of the clan and held a clan meeting again.

......

Changping County.

Chen's Ancestral Hall.

Inside the huge discussion hall, the senior executives of the Chen clan stood with their heads bowed. On the left were the senior executives of the instrument factory headed by Chen Liangyu, and on the right were officials from the Changping County Government.

Chen Daoxuan's gaze swept across Chen Liangyu, and finally landed on Chen Zhi, the magistrate of Changping County, who was first on the right.

"Chen County magistrate, have you completed the investigation of the details of the population within the clan that I ordered you to investigate?"

"Young patriarch,"

Chen Zhi bowed his hands, "My subordinates completed the investigation ten days ago, and after review by the county government, it was found that my Chen family has 1,039 children under the age of 10, with the most young adults aged 15 to 40, reaching 1,665. , the number of people over forty is the least, only 969 people.

Among them, there are 914 adult males in the family, and only 751 adult females, and the population in the county…”

Chen Zhi skillfully reported the family population data again.

The results of this population review are generally the same as the data submitted by the county government ten days ago.

It proves that Chen Zhi did not slack off during this period of time, and he investigated all the details of the population of the clan.

In this population data, Chen Daoxuan is most interested in the adult population and children under the age of ten.

In this world, men and women are generally married at a younger age. Women usually get married around the age of thirteen or fourteen, while men get married a little later, but generally no more than fifteen years old.

The Chen family has not been able to grow and develop on Shuanghu Island for so many years. On the one hand, the cultivation resources are insufficient, and they have not been able to produce enough monks to protect the clan. On the other hand, the family industry is poor and cannot support the huge family population.

With a population of tens of millions like the Zhou family in Guang'an, a small family like the Chen family would never dare to imagine.

After all, the mortals of the family also consume various resources.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation all consume resources.

Although these resources are disliked by cultivators, they are also important resources that affect the foundation of the family, because they determine the population size of a family.

For example, the basic condition for maintaining population size - food!

Chen Daoxuan didn't know how many spiritual veins the Zhou family had, but everyone in Guang'an Prefecture knew that there were hundreds of islands in the Zhou family's hands just for growing ordinary food.

Not to mention the cargo ships coming and going from Guang'an Prefecture, constantly providing food for the Zhou family.

It is precisely because of this food that the Zhou family's ethnic group will continue to grow, so that the population of the clan has reached tens of millions.

Chen Daoxuan also wants to follow the Zhou family's development model, but he needs to make certain changes on this basis.

If the Chen family wants to grow and develop, it is impossible to rely on the thousands of people on Shuanghu Island.

All the senior members of the family are well aware of this.

However, the family is in a difficult situation, and even the spiritual energy of the monks cannot be guaranteed. Blindly expanding the family population will only bring down the family completely.

Chen Daoxuan, who is a traveler, knows that if the population cannot be transformed into productivity, it will only become a huge burden on the family, not a help.

Fortunately, because of his existence, the Chen family has set off a little fairyland version of industrialization in the suburbs outside Changping County.

There is no doubt about the demand of industrialization for population.

Take the Feijian factory in the current industrial zone as an example, although only fifteen workers can run the Feijian factory.

But the manpower required to surround this Feijian factory is far more than fifteen people.

For example, the person who purchases the raw materials of spiritual ore, the person who manages the factory, and the person who is responsible for packaging the red shadow flying sword, that is, the workshop that produces the sword box.

Chen Daoxuan sells flying swords to cultivators, but it's not like selling flying swords to merpeople, without even packaging.

These all require large populations.

And with the expansion of the Feijian factory in the future, the population demand will also increase.

Therefore, the Chen family not only wants to expand the population, but also Chen Daoxuan is not going to use the expanded population to grow food.

But things like food are also an important foundation for the family, and it is impossible for the Chen family to rely on external purchases to maintain the family's food consumption.

For this situation, Chen Daoxuan already had a solution in mind.

but.

For the time being, there are only two most important things for the Chen family:

One, cultivate a spiritual vein.

Second, expand the size of the family population.

Chen Daoxuan planned to do these two things together.

The matter of Lingmai has been settled very well. Now and even in the future, expanding the family's population will be the basic policy of the Chen family.

At least in three hundred years.

The expansion of the Chen family's population will not stop.

Think of this.

Chen Daoxuan looked at Chen Zhi and said: "Chen County magistrate, the day after tomorrow, I will set off to Guang'an Prefecture to purchase supplies for the family. During the two months I have been away, I want your county to set up a family planning department, which will be dedicated to family planning. Responsible for encouraging and guiding the birth of the tribe.

I set a goal for you. Within three years, I want to expand the family population tenfold! "

Hear the words.

Chen Zhi's complexion changed on the spot, and he looked puzzled: "But the patriarch is young, and there are not many women in the family. It's ten times larger. This..."

"I know that there are not enough women in the family now, but it will be enough soon."

Chen Daoxuan said lightly.
