In the 140th year of the Gregorian calendar, two or three peach blossoms could be vaguely seen outside a bamboo forest. On the bank of Li River, a group of green-winged ducks splashed into the water with their wings spread.
The seven counties under the jurisdiction of the Yang family are extremely lively, because this year will hold the largest clan competition and disciple selection since the Yang family was founded.
This family competition was different from the past. It was not limited to the children of the Yang family, but was open to all children of the right age in the seven counties controlled by the Yang family. For a time, the seven counties under the jurisdiction of the Yang family became excited.
Although the Yang family has continuously spawned births and large-scale marriages over the years, the population of the Yang family still cannot keep up with the expansion of the Yang family's territory.
Furthermore, the Yang family has been established for more than a hundred years and has gone through several wars. Although they still claim to be powerful in Chenyu County, who dares to treat them as ordinary powerful people.
Although the Yang family has a strict family tradition, conflicts of interests are inevitable for any power.
The Yang family's direct, branch, and collateral lines are now strong enough, and it's time to support the outer lines.
Thanks to the Yang family's birth promotion policy, although the Yang family continues to migrate out of the country, there are now about 3,000 households and nearly 20,000 clan members, and there are nearly 4,000 monks.
The Yang family has been harmonious over the years. The key is that the Yang family is in constant development. The growth of the Yang family can benefit the clan members and improve the treatment of each clan member.
But after the Yuzhou Eastern War, the pattern of Yuzhou has been determined. The Yang family's development in Yuzhou has reached a bottleneck, and the various spiritual resources produced will also have certain limits.
As the number of Yang family members increases, the Yang family will inevitably fall into various competitions for interests and even form cliques.
Although there will be continuous secret migration in the future, transferring the population to the remaining seven states can reduce internal strife within the family.
But just in case, Yang Hongyuan naturally had to make preparations in advance, and at the same time, he also set up a selection system for the Yang family's children.
Reduce the dependence of family power on bloodline, and promote fairness to the children of branches, collateral lines, and external lines without background.
Allocate resources to those children who are talented or good at cultivating immortals and various arts, give them a relatively fair development platform, and try to concentrate family resources on the best descendants of the family.
Of course, family power must also take into account family ties. The two generations of grandfathers can use their own accumulation to supplement the younger generations, but they are not allowed to use family resources for public benefit and personal gain.
The family needs to ensure that the family's resources are fairly distributed to each family member.
After expanding Yao County to Huang Yao County, coupled with the opportunities for feedback from the formation of medium-sized land lines in front of him, Yang Hongyuan will once again improve the family's management system with the benefit of the clan's interests rising sharply again.
First of all, starting from Xishan, we comprehensively sorted out and clarified the family's operational structure. In addition to the original seven halls, we added the Bingzhan Hall and the Gongzao Hall. Each hall has four divisions, for a total of nine halls and thirty-six divisions.
Each hall has one leader, each with a title, one deputy hall leader, and one responsible person for each of the four divisions.
The original functions of the Lizhengtang remain unchanged and are divided into four departments: official, government, affairs, and enfeoffment. Among them, the official department is in charge of personnel appointments and job transfers in various parts of the Yang family, which can be said to be a high-power position.
The political secretary is in charge of family operations and government affairs. It is considered the most cumbersome department and is mainly suitable for those in the family who are mature and stable, with noble character, but have no hope of success.
The Affairs Department is responsible for releasing various tasks for the family, including monthly fixed tasks for clan members, as well as bounty tasks issued by the family or the family’s senior leaders, as well as task completion approval.
After confirming that it is completed correctly, the clan members can go to Hufu Hall to receive the monthly routines and corresponding rewards.
The title of Fengsi was newly added by Yang Hongyuan, and his merits had been evaluated, appointed, and decorated.
However, the Fengsi and the Lisi have checks and balances with each other. The Lisi can appoint and deploy personnel, but the power of evaluation lies with the Fengsi.
However, the people appointed by the official department need to be granted the title of chief official, and the village leaders, town guards, and county magistrates must be canonized and appointed by them to be effective.
As for the ranks, they are the titles awarded to those who have made meritorious service in the family. These titles correspond to the corresponding monthly amounts of spiritual grain and jade coins.
The second is to honor the deceased clan members. After all, there are not many clan members who can claim the title of ancestor, so it is natural to have appropriate titles, such as duke, marquis, uncle, son, male, and the sixth and eighteenth level of king. Lord.
In fact, the title of Grand Duke that was previously conferred was considered a sixth-level Duke.
In addition to the original functions, the Hufu Hall has also been divided into four divisions: Hu, Fu, Du, and Cang. Among them, the Husi is in charge of the household registration, place of birth, and the number of acres of land under the jurisdiction of the Yang family. It divides some of the original ritual hall. functions.
The Fu Division is in charge of the collection of local taxes and payments to the Shaking Sky Sect, the monthly distribution of money and grain to clan members, and various task rewards. It can be regarded as in charge of financial power.
However, Fusi is also restricted by Dusi, who is in charge of the family's various jade coins, money and food income, expenditure accounting, profit and loss measurement, and the formulation of monthly standards for clan members.
However, the storage of spiritual objects, money and grain is in the warehouse. In addition to being in charge of the family's spiritual grain and the storage of spiritual objects, he is also responsible for checking the money and grain in and out of the warehouse to prevent anyone from enriching his own pockets.
Of course, the warehouse chief is only in charge of the outer treasury, and the inner treasury is in the Sutra Collection Pavilion on Yuling Peak.
In addition to its original functions, the ceremonial hall has also undergone changes. It is divided into four departments: Li, Zong, Wen, and Foreign Affairs. The Li department is responsible for family sacrifices and etiquette, as well as the evaluation of temples, posthumous titles, honors, and titles, and controls the importance of famous utensils.
Zongsi is the management of the four lines of the family: direct, branch, side, and outside. The inheritance pedigree is verified, and the generation is not easy to come by. You must know that the generation of the Yang family is not easy to come by.
As for the Wen Si, he is responsible for compiling the family history, recording the deeds of the clan members, and is the place where the family retires.
As for the foreign affairs department, it was newly established and was responsible for the family's communication with various factions and families, the coming and going of guests, and with the rise of the Yang family, such as the distribution of interests with various families and factions, etc.
The punishment hall has thoroughly clarified its functions. It is not like the previous grass-roots team. It is divided into four departments: law, punishment, punishment, and prison. Among them, the law department is responsible for family ancestral precepts, family rules, and the formulation, revision, addition, and deletion of laws.
For example, Taizu Jingzhao of the first generation established that the children of the Yang family must marry and have children at the age of twenty. It is obviously out of date today and needs to be revised.
At the same time, as the Yang family grew increasingly prosperous, various new issues necessitated the addition of new legal texts.
The duties of the Criminal Division remain unchanged and are in charge of the trial, litigation, and ruling of various illegal matters within the family.
The Punishment Division is responsible for punishing the illegal tribesmen sentenced by the Criminal Division.
As for the supervisory department, he is responsible for supervising the entire Yang family and the areas under his jurisdiction, reporting and exposing lawless people and illegal things, and monitoring the world.
As for the newly established Bingzhan Hall, as the name suggests, it is responsible for the military affairs of the Yang family and is divided into four divisions: Bing, Zhan, Lian, and Treasury.
The Yang family has experienced several wars since then. Although it will be peaceful in the future, there will be no shortage of disputes and wrangling.
In the past, the Yang family had a small territory and weak strength. Whenever there was a war, the entire clan would use all their strength. It could be said that the entire clan was a soldier, but now it is just right to set up a war hall.
