This wasn\'t a game world where you could complete a food transportation task with just a click of the mouse.

Moreover, as the head of the clan, he should focus on the big picture and delegate tasks. If he did everything himself, from start to finish, what would be the point of having clan members and family guards?

Even Gong Sunhui, the elderly matriarch, was called to leave with him. The last segment of the transportation line was entirely entrusted to Wang Luotong to manage, and the girls in the family also had to take responsibility.

Walking and chatting with Gong Sunhui, they passed through the vast backyard garden and entered the inner courtyard of the Wang Clan Manor, then slowly strolled into the small courtyard where Wang Shoujie grew up.

Personal attendant Wang Gui was leading two family guards to repair the courtyard. Seeing Wang Shoujie and Gong Sunhui, he immediately came forward to pay his respects: "Greetings, Master and Madam."

Wang Gui belonged to Wang Shoujie\'s entourage, and his family was clean and honest. Originally, he was a collateral descendant of the Wang Clan, and most importantly, he was a talented youth with a lower-middle-grade innate talent among the collateral descendants.

Don\'t underestimate him as just a personal attendant, but he had served the young clan leader since childhood and would certainly become Wang Shoujie\'s trusted aide in the future. Once he established his own family and had children with innate talents, he would have the opportunity to be incorporated into the direct lineage of the clan, and even his name would be recorded in the clan\'s genealogy.

"Wang Gui, this is Shanyang\'s small spirit tea. Brew a pot for me and Madam," Wang Shoujie handed the spirit tea he brought to Wang Gui.

"Spirit tea?" Wang Gui, who had followed Wang Shoujie for ten years, had never seen it twice and was slightly stunned.

"Don\'t even think about it, child. This is for you to drink alone, a gift from your grandfather," Gong Sunhui immediately refused, "These few years are the most critical period for your growth. You should focus on breaking through to the 8th or 9th level of the Qi Refining Realm, which is more suitable for your clan leader\'s strength!"

"Mother, don\'t refuse. Aren\'t you curious about where this batch of old grain came from? Let\'s have a cup of spirit tea, and I\'ll tell you slowly." Wang Shoujie firmly invited, scolding Wang Gui, "What are you still dazed about? Go brew the tea quickly."

"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Gui\'s body trembled, and he hastily retreated.

The son was so firm, and Gong Sunhui couldn\'t refuse anymore. In the side hall of this courtyard, the two sat facing each other, and soon, Wang Gui presented a pot of spirit tea, along with some fruit and honeyed snacks, and then bowed and retreated.

"Child, this courtyard of yours is no longer suitable for your status as clan leader," Gong Sunhui said, looking around, "After I\'ve completed my first year of mourning, I\'ll move out of the main courtyard and give you the space. It will also be more convenient for you to bring back the Liu Clan\'s daughter-in-law."

"Madam, there\'s no need for that." Wang Shoujie smiled indifferently, pouring a cup of tea for each of them, "This courtyard is fine, and I\'m used to it. You can just live comfortably with your sister, and don\'t bother with unnecessary changes."

"How can this be called unnecessary? You\'re now the head of the family and should live in the main courtyard," Gong Sunhui said, "Besides, you\'re used to living here, but the Liu Clan\'s daughter-in-law might not be. When she enters the Wang Clan\'s gate, I\'ll also have to hand over the family\'s finances to her, which is the rule of our clan."

Wang Shoujie shook his head and said, "The Liu Clan is marrying into our family, and that\'s also your daughter-in-law. How can we be so presumptuous? Let\'s not talk about this for now. Mother, please have a cup of tea, and I\'ll tell you about my trip in detail. There are many things we need to discuss later."

To Wang Shoujie, Gong Sunhui was mature and steady, and her status in the family was extremely high. Even the elderly members of the clan couldn\'t compare to her.

If he could revitalize the family just by practicing every day, he wouldn\'t mind doing so. However, his vision and goals had already surpassed those of the elderly members. As a young clan leader, if he wanted to make significant changes in the family, he would inevitably face resistance from the conservative faction.

Mother Gong Sunhui should be his strongest and most reliable ally, being the eldest daughter of the Shanyang Gongsun Clan!

Gong Sunhui took a sip of the spiritual tea, her eyes filled with curiosity. Since this young master took over, he had become more and more mature, and many of his methods were beyond her understanding.

After a brief pause, Wang Shoujie explained how he had obtained a large sum of money and grain from Qian\'s Trading Company, omitting his secret alliance with Qian Xue\'an.

Gong Sunhui\'s mouth kept opening wider, and her eyes were about to pop out. This was simply unbelievable and too daring. Relying on some advance information about the insect plague, he had taken such decisive action, playing the Qian family like a fiddle.

This operation was beyond Gong Sunhui\'s imagination. She was also worried, as the family\'s reputation had been used as collateral for 4,200 gold coins. If he had failed in his prediction, it would have become the greatest failure in the history of the Ping\'an Wang Clan!

Even though the matter had been successful, Gong Sunhui was still agitated and couldn\'t calm down. It was too daring, really too daring!

"Mother, don\'t blame me for not consulting you beforehand. The timing was critical, and we couldn\'t afford to discuss it slowly within the family," Wang Shoujie said calmly, sipping his tea. "This sum of money can be injected into the family\'s accounts, but we\'ll only announce to the elderly members that it was borrowed from the Shanyang Gongsun Clan and the Yingxiu Lu Clan, to avoid them being overwhelmed by the news."

"I understand, son," Gong Sunhui said, taking two more cups of spiritual tea to calm down. She finally understood why her son had asked her to drink the tea to hear the news. The impact of this news was too great, and she might not have been able to handle it.

After composing herself, Gong Sunhui slowly said, "Son, inviting me to drink tea and hear the news wasn\'t the only matter, was it?"

"Hehe, Mother, your wisdom is like a torch, and I couldn\'t hide my little thoughts from you," Wang Shoujie said with a smile. "It\'s just that our family\'s system has some flaws, especially in the ranking system, which only considers bloodline, talent, and gender. It lacks a competitive mechanism and is too lenient towards the younger generation."

Gong Sunhui furrowed her brow and said, "You\'re referring to Zongwei, aren\'t you? I\'ve heard about his matters. He\'s been brought back by the guards, and I heard that your Eldest Brother was furious when he found out and personally came back from the silkworm farm, almost breaking Zongwei\'s legs. He\'s now locked up in the woodshed."

"What\'s your take on this, Mother?" Wang Shoujie asked, sipping his tea as if it were nothing.

Gong Sunhui pondered for a moment and said, "That child is indeed quite reckless. As the clan leader and his elder, you should teach him a lesson. Even temporarily taking away his cultivation resources as punishment is acceptable. However, you must consider the faces of Second Grandfather, Dingchuan, and your Eldest Brother. They\'ve worked hard for the family for a lifetime. You can\'t permanently deprive him of his due treatment and give it to Luotong instead."

"This is exactly why I wanted to discuss this with you, Mother," Wang Shoujie said confidently. "Even you think so, let alone others."

"Are you really going to permanently deprive Wang Zongwei of his resources?" Gong Sunhui asked in surprise. "Won\'t that offend your Eldest Brother\'s branch?"

"Permanently depriving him is out of the question, but taking back what\'s his is a different story. Who says it\'s not possible, including myself?" Wang Shoujie said with a smile.

Gong Sunhui was taken aback: "Who says it\'s not possible, then?"

Just as she was about to speak, a middle-aged woman\'s voice came from outside the door: "Fourth Uncle, is Wang Shoujie at home?"

Gong Sunhui\'s expression changed slightly: "It\'s Zongwei\'s mother, Mrs Xu. She\'s from the Changning Xu Clan and has always been proud and difficult to deal with. You should be careful, Wang Shoujie."

Wang Shoujie, however, smiled confidently: "Mother, you\'re joking. Mrs Xu is my elder sister-in-law, and we\'re all one family. What\'s there to be careful about?"

He immediately pushed the door open and welcomed her with a smile, saying, "Elder sister-in-law, you didn\'t even notify us before coming. I should have gone out to receive you."

This kind of smooth and adaptable behavior even left Gong Sunhui with a slightly surprised expression. Her son was really capable. Not only was her brother Gong Sun Qiang far inferior to him, but even her late husband Wang Dingyue was vastly different from him.
