Chapter 284: Distributing It In The Family
They did it like this because they can see some of the treasures that can be used now, but some either need time to grow or no one in the family needs it for now.
The elders worked tirelessly to sort through the vast collection of treasures from the meteorite, dividing the resources into categories.
Some items were immediately usable, while others required more study to understand their potential.
Even the items deemed unusable for now weren't dismissed; the Xu family valued everything, knowing that with time and research, their uses could be uncovered.
Nothing would go to waste.
"This is an incredible find," one elder said, bowing respectfully to Xu Qianghua. "You always manage to surprise us, Family Head."
Xu Qianghua waved off the praise, keeping his focus on the egg sitting securely in its ornate container.
"Make sure everything is distributed fairly," he instructed. "I trust you to handle the details."
As the elders continued their work, Xu Qianghua turned to the women gathered around him. "Thank you for helping. This would've taken much longer without you."
Bai Lingyun smiled, crossing her arms. "It's only natural for us to support you, Qiangqiang."
Liu Meiying smiled softly. "Besides, seeing all these treasures was exciting. It's not every day we all work together like this."
Xu Qianghua chuckled lightly, his gaze drifting back to the glowing egg. He didn't fully understand its purpose yet, but he felt certain it would reveal its secrets in time.
For now, there were other matters to focus on.
The treasures from the meteorite needed to be used wisely, and the family needed to grow stronger, as that was the only way he would know what all of this was about.
After ensuring the egg was secure in its special container—a box lined with spirit stone fragments designed to protect it—Xu Qianghua placed it in his office.
This way, it would remain under his watchful eye. He instructed the maids to keep an eye on it as well, and they readily agreed.
Though he still felt a strange connection to the egg, Xu Qianghua decided not to overthink it. Time would tell what mysteries it held.
With the egg secured, the distribution of the meteorite's treasures began in earnest. The elders worked methodically, ensuring that every resource was allocated fairly.
Cultivation materials were divided among the family members, from the lower ranks to the most elite.
Rare and precious items were sent to the family's branches to strengthen their loyalty and the potential they have shown.
Some treasures were set aside as rewards for loyal allies and promising disciples.
The treasures sparked excitement throughout the Xu family. Many members saw this as a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to advance their cultivation or improve their projects.
Even the items whose uses weren't immediately clear were given to researchers within the family, who eagerly took on the challenge of understanding and finding out their secrets.
Meanwhile, the meteorite itself was sent to the Xu family's science district for analysis.
The researchers there, already working on projects related to space exploration, were thrilled to study the meteorite's unique composition.
Initial findings revealed that the meteorite was made of a rare metal alloy, a blend of high-grade spirit ores that was far stronger and more durable than anything they had encountered before.
This discovery alone had the potential to revolutionize the family's efforts in crafting advanced tools and vehicles.
The scientists also uncovered a hidden formation and a core within the meteorite, which had powered its incredible functions.
This core alone gave the researchers many new ideas for energy storage and propulsion systems, sparking ideas for new technology that could help them with their designs.
Elder Wu, head of the engineering department, was particularly excited about these developments.
Known for her innovative ideas, she saw the meteorite as a treasure trove of possibilities. During a meeting with Xu Qianghua, she spoke with enthusiasm. Read the latest on m_v-l'e|-NovelBin.net
"Family Head, the knowledge we've gained from this meteorite is priceless. With these discoveries, we can accelerate our space exploration projects by decades."
Xu Qianghua nodded in approval. "Good. Keep me informed of your progress. This meteorite has already proven its value, but I want to see how far we can take it."
While the researchers delved into the meteorite's mysteries, the women of the Xu family were busy utilizing their share of the treasures.
Liu Meiying focused on expanding the Empyrean Trade Consortium, using the resources to secure exclusive trade routes and create high-value goods.
Bai Xueyan and Liu Anwei dedicated their efforts to training elite disciples within the Empyrean Harmony Sect, aiming to build a force capable of rivaling the strongest cultivators in the Central Continent with a female-only Sect.
Yan Yuehua used the materials to upgrade the Shadows' equipment and improve their stealth formations, ensuring they remained an unparalleled covert force.
Even as everyone worked on their individual projects, the egg remained at the center of Xu Qianghua's thoughts.
He visited his office frequently, checking on it and observing its faint glow. Each time he touched it, the egg absorbed a small amount of his Chaos Qi, and the connection between them seemed to grow stronger.
One day, while examining the egg, Xu Qianghua noticed something unusual. The Chaos Qi within the egg felt clearer and pureer, almost as if the creature inside was growing stronger.
The egg seemed to pulse with life, its glow slightly brighter than before. Whatever was inside, it was clearly no ordinary spirit beast.
"This egg…" Xu Qianghua murmured, his fingers lightly brushing its surface. "It's more important than I thought."
As the days passed, the meteorite's impact was felt throughout the Xu family. The influx of resources strengthened their forces and boosted morale, but the outside world did not see this.
They all saw nothing, which Xu Qianghua wanted, as there is no need to publicize what they are doing to the outside world when it is unnecessary.
Even the family's branches felt the effects, receiving shipments of rare materials that enhanced their capabilities and loyalty.
In the Xu family subspace, optimism was in the air. The meteorite had brought more than just treasures—it had brought hope and a renewed sense of purpose.
Everyone worked harder, inspired by the opportunities it had unlocked.
