Chapter 1202 - 1070: Gifting
"Ancestor Rui, may I ask when you plan to hold the grand ceremony?" Upon learning of Li Zhirui’s return from seclusion, Li Taichang immediately came to visit and sought the opinion of the central figure.
To be honest, this was Li Taichang’s first time encountering Li Zhirui up close. Although this old ancestor had ignored family affairs for many years, if he were to step in and veto a clan leader, the clan members would undoubtedly stand behind him.
Thus, Li Taichang wanted to use this opportunity to gauge Li Zhirui’s attitude toward him.
"You all decide on a date and inform me in advance, that will suffice." Li Zhirui was unaware of how the family’s preparations were progressing and had no desire to inquire further. After all, when the time came, he only needed to make a brief appearance and share some trivial methods.
"Understood."
Li Taichang paused briefly, then took out a jade slip, saying, "Ancestor Rui, these are the strategies I intend to implement within the family going forward. I respectfully request your review."
Li Zhirui glanced at him, noticed his tense demeanor, and eventually took the slip. Without using his divine sense to examine it, he said, "No need to be so nervous. Since the many clan members have chosen you, it’s because they trust you to lead the family toward continued growth."
"In the future, there’s no need to show these plans to me. You all understand the various situations of the family best. But remember, nothing should be rushed; seek progress steadily."
The Li family had grown to this point, but there were already numerous issues within. Due to its relatively short lineage and the pursuit of rapid development, coupled with various suppressive measures, major problems had been avoided thus far.
"Of course, if you encounter issues you cannot resolve, you may come to me. As long as it benefits the growth of the family, I will offer my assistance." This was, in essence, a promise from Li Zhirui.
