The audit lasted for 2 weeks. It did not take long though for discrepancies to arise.
Although Han Bei and Han Ma were not professional investigators in this kind of thing but how hard can it really be?
All they needed to do was check the tallied balance in the clan records and see if it coincided with the items that were inside the treasury.
With a sizable family like the Han, one can only imagine the riches that it has accumulated for many many years of growth.
Thus, it was the recounting of such an enormous amount of wealth which had taken much of their time to finish this quest.
It was lucky that the two of them were not alone in the job since they used more than 800 men and women in the clan to aid them in checking the inventory.
"We should supposedly have at least 50 million spirit stones in storage but the number that we got in actual count was only less than half of that. About 20 million spirit stones more or less."
"It seems like those evil clan elders had their filthy hands on the clan treasury."
"The same situation happened with our miscellaneous items also. About half of it is missing!" Han Bei noted with disgust.
"..." Han Ma merely stood there in silence. Although they were partners in undertaking this quest but that did not mean at all that the two of them were equal in status.
Han Ma was used to being a servant and so he merely awaited the next instruction of his mistress. Han Bei has not disappointed his expectations at all.
"Starting from today, there will be 100 spirit stones monthly allowance for all clan members regardless of their age, health and occupation in the family."
"Everyone is also allowed to enter the 1st floor of our Martial Pavillion."
"Anyone who can reach the 5th Stage of Martial Realm can choose a tier 1 item in the treasury."
"And anyone who can achieve a breakthrough towards the 1st Stage of Innate Realm shall have one tier 2 item of their choice." Han Bei stated.
She would have wanted to add a prize for a tier 3 item also but getting unto a cultivation base of Core Creation Realm would take decades in the making.
At least this much incentive was enough to fuel the desire of her clansmen. Since the top dogs of the clan had already died or escaped, they needed experts badly in their fold.
And Han Bei needed them to come from inside of their family. Carelessly hiring outsiders to increase their numbers was not very advisable indeed.
It was akin to inviting wolves into the sheep's den.
"Thank you for your kindness, Lady Han Bei." Han Ma bowed lower than usual and in this act, his heartfelt gratitude was seen alongside his words.
Since he had the mentality of a servant, he never made any innovations in the clan rules during his reign of power.
One should know that only those that had shown promise in cultivation were allowed to see a single spirit stone in their lives.
If not, it would only be a waste of valuable resources. But with this change, everyone could freely cultivate no matter how low their talent was.
Even if they could not achieve far but the spirit stones would improve their physique and health.
In addition, with everyone's free pass in the Martial Pavilion, there were greater chances for success in their training.
They could find a suitable technique and a cultivation manual that they could master. And the choice was not limited to 1 standard jade slip.
This was truly a heaven sent gift to all the 5,281 clan members who had chosen to stay. It was indeed a memorable day for everyone.

"Is this real?! Or am i only dreaming right now?!"
"HAHAHA! Wake up, fool! This is all true!"
"We can finally have a chance to cultivate and be immortals!"
"Shut up, you dumb fuck! You are almost a hundred years old!"
"You'd be dust in the earth before you can cultivate to the 1st Stage of Martial Realm!"
"Just watch me do it! I'll your ass behind me in the dust!"
"Thank you, Lady Han Bei!"
"Thank you, Master Clark!" The remaining clansmen of Han rejoiced when they heard of this news. Most of the 5,000 people left in the clan were born as servants and slaves.
In truth, they were only forced to stay because they really had nowhere else to go other than here.
Should they gamble and flee, they would not survive for long since they have no riches and marketable ability.
Perhaps the only fate that would have awaited them was to become servants and slaves still. Only to a different clan, family and name in Aurora City.

A change this big was of course easy to notice. Our bored gamer also got a very obvious hint of what happened at dinner time.
"THUD!"
"THUD!"
"THUD!" A series of dropping bodies kissed the cold floors one after another.
"On behalf of our families, we give our thanks to you Master Clark!"
"May you live long and bless our Han with your guidance and will!" The beautiful ladies all prostrated down to honor our good gamer.
"..." Clark was stunned for a second or two. He then used his Ring of Remedies and knew what had happened today.
'Han Bei is really a woman full of surprises.' Our avid gamer could not help but smile at his latest catch.
"Get up. All of you. This is a boon from your Lady Han Bei and not mine. Serve her well from this day on and cultivate diligently thereafter.
This should be the best way of repaying Han Bei this favor." Clark said to the lovely girls and sat down at the table.
It did not take long before he was already devouring delicious foods left and right. Since this was a day of celebration then he would mark it with a substantial feast for himself.
'SIGH!'
'All i do is fuck, fuck, and fuck some more.'
'I think that having this kind of blessing can sometimes be a curse.' Our bored gamer shook his head and thought of a way on how to pamper Han Bei for her good deed today.
'Hmmmm... Let me see. Should I get rid of that worthless parasite on her body or not?'
