When Xiao Yu and the others returned to Maoshan, it was noon the next day. They were tired all night. After they went back, they rested and did not continue to gather their meridians for Xiao Xue and the others.

The Ghost Hidden Sect was destroyed, and the news is still relatively hidden now. What Xiao Yu needs to do is to inquire about the whereabouts of the White Bone Ghost Immortal, and to improve Maoshan's overall strength again.

In the evening, Xiao Yu and other important figures gathered on the proofreading platform and began to discuss how to improve Maoshan's overall strength.

"Mr. Zhuge, you are more experienced in this kind of thing. I wonder what you think of Maoshan now?

Xiao Yu looked at Zhuge and asked with his hands.

Outsiders all know that Zhuge is the elder of Maoshan, but only Xiao Yu knows that this elder is only temporary because the other party will leave at any time.

Zhuge was once the leader of the Exorcist Alliance, with a high position and a powerful position. After resigning, he had no intention of going back. When Maoshan opened, it was because of the lack of manpower that the other party was the elder in the sect.

"The most important thing about the mountain gate is to make the disciples feel a sense of belonging. There are more than 60 outer disciples now, but most of them are Taoist priests who recite scriptures every day without too high pursuits, which will develop a kind of laziness.

If you want to strive for excellence, you must form a reward and punishment system, where the winner stays and the loser leaves.

Some disciples who are sincere to Maoshan can let them go to the mortal world to experience it again. If they are really not tempted by external things, they can help them gather their meridians and bring them into the inner door."

Zhuge didn't hide anything, he said directly.

When Xiao Yu and the others heard this, they nodded. Zhuge said it was right at all. For the sake of long-term stability, a group of loyal disciples are needed. However, there are too few disciples now, and under the waves, one of the disciples is probably not ten.

"Only one of us in Maoshan has a natural Taoist meridian, but the other person is restless and still needs training.

Moreover, we have a great power to offend. Maoshan must have masters in charge, otherwise, everyone can travel around and find some orphans to bring them back to train.

We at Maoshan have basically no female disciples, so we need to get Xiao Xue and Tang Wan to gather successfully as soon as possible and help them improve their strength, so that some female disciples can be recruited.

There are nine peaks around Maoshan, but only three peaks are under the jurisdiction of Maoshan, so I suggest that we continue to requisition land and include all surrounding peaks in Maoshan’s jurisdiction.

When separating Maoshan from each other, the female disciple lives in a peak, Fengshui feng shui occupies a peak, catching monsters and ghosts is a peak, and the remaining few peaks can be set as a place for the cultivation of the major elders of Maoshan. What do you think?"

Xiao Yu expressed his point of view.

When I first started building Maoshan, the place looked quite large, but now I look at it and it seems very crowded.

There are not many disciples now. If there are too many disciples and there are mixed men and women, there will be problems sooner or later.

There are also some mortal lay Buddhists who often go up the mountain and listen to the scriptures and preach in the mountains, and some guest rooms are indispensable.

"This proposal is good. Everyone is good at different things. If they are together, it is really difficult to teach. After they are separated, they will have some competitiveness, which will be better."

Qinglong's nodded immediately to agree.

However, Lao Bai frowned, as if he didn't agree with this proposal.

"Great Elder, you have any questions to say, let's discuss them together."

Lao Bai is a great elder, and he will ask about everything. The other party has doubts now, so it should be difficult.

After hearing Xiao Yu's question, Lao Bai took out an account book and paid it.

"This is the account book of the past two months, and it's not enough to make ends meet!"

Since pilgrims went up the mountain, they have earned some income. Although they are very small, they have made a fortune. As for whether they can save their fortunes, Xiao Yu is still unclear.

Seeing the other party's face full of worry, Xiao Yu opened the first page casually, which clearly stated on it, how much money was paid, what was the loss, and what expenses were for food, clothing, housing and transportation.

On the first day, I didn’t have much problem with it because there were very few people, so Xiao Yu continued to flip backwards.

When I saw that a month was over, the problem came. The daily necessities were seriously damaged, such as toothpaste, clothes damaged, magic tools purchased, incense and candles, etc. At the end of the month, the bill was 570,000 yuan.

What made Xiao Yu most depressed was that there was also a living allowance in the expenses of his disciples, which was 2,000 per person.

The subsidy for two thousand per person is probably the salary!

Maoshan does not sell tickets, does not force the people to donate incense money, and does not sell talismans, so the income is very small, and most of them are fortune telling.

As the so-called explanation, it is not possible to not charge.

Because after ordinary people commit crimes, they are their debts. If you don’t charge fees to deal with them, the debt will come to yourself.

This is also a lot of Taoists who can explain it to the closest person, and they will make the other party feel more meaningful.

"Each disciple has a subsidy of 2,000 yuan. What did those disciples buy?

There are vegetarian food for three meals a day, and Taoist robes are also provided by the mountain gate. Do you have to pay a salary?"

Xiao Yu put down the account book and said a little angry.

"Maoshan rules that you cannot eat meat in the mountains, but it is practical to go out. There was a living allowance at the beginning.

But at that time there were too few people and not a lot of subsidies. Now there are too many people, the subsidies will increase suddenly.”

Lao Bai explained to Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu now understands why Lao Bai is worried. Now dozens of disciples have such a huge expense. If they are included in several peaks, the expenses will probably be several million per month.

With so much money, how can Maoshan maintain it without any income?

This is indeed a problem. Although Xiao Yu and his men have the ability to make money, they cannot make money outside all day long to subsidize the mountain gate.

After all, this is not a long-term solution. If Xiao Yu and the others go to the secret realm of the Ghost Tower and Maoshan is cutting off money and food, wouldn’t they all starve to death?

Thinking of this, Xiao Yu felt that this was indeed a big problem.

"If the order is passed on, Maoshan disciples will not have a living allowance in the future. This is a place for practicing Taoism, not a place for enjoying happiness. The monthly allowance of 2,000 yuan is reduced to 500 yuan, which is enough for them to buy their living needs.

As for those who have achieved cultivation, the mountain gate will give it to you, and they don’t have to purchase it themselves.”

Xiao Yu ordered Lao Bai.

I made a batch of magic weapons at the beginning, but I haven't used them yet. Although they are not good things, I think they are richer than other mountain gates.

Thinking of the magic weapon, Xiao Yu couldn't help but think of something, which was the flying treasure he had made for the other party, and he forgot to find the thing.

"Yes, in fact, there aren't so many disciples at all. Just use a few to clean up the incense. If there are too many people, they will be lazy. I'm going to prepare for retirement here."

Qinglong also agrees with Xiao Yu's approach.

"There are many fertile fields between the mountains. The disciples in the mountains can grow medicinal materials, and food and vegetables are self-sufficient. They either recite scriptures or meditate all day long. There is no effect when sitting on the futon!

The ghost corpse also suggested next to him.

Maoshan looks stable on the surface now, but it is also a mess, not as stable as Xiao Yu thought. The disciples come and walk, just like staying in a hotel, bringing many inconveniences to the mountain gate.

"Starting today, we will only provide three meals of vegetarian food for the disciples. The monthly subsidies for disciples are reduced, and they can cultivate fertile fields so that they can grow vegetables during this period.

If the lay Buddhists who enter the mountain want to live in the mountain, they will let them pay the food expenses themselves, so that we can reduce expenses.
