My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 40 A great harvest

Chapter 40 A Great Harvest (I slept well yesterday and added another chapter)
"It just so happens that I am a little hungry too. We have been fighting all night, so I can use the wine and meat of old thief Ang Riduo to satisfy my hunger."

Seeing that Huang Yi and He Xutuo seemed to want to ask questions, Lu Yi immediately took advantage of the situation to stop them from asking.

"This... okay..."

Seeing this, the two men simply controlled their temper and sat down first.

I've already waited a whole night, so I don't care about a drink.

"It seems like we have a good harvest this time." Lu Yi took two steps back and came in front of Cheng Lian and Zhang Jia and asked in a low voice.

When he saw Cheng Lian, Zhang Jia and others with rosy faces, he immediately realized that the harvest this time must be considerable.

"Brother, yesterday at dusk, we saw a fire in the nameless valley, so we led the crowd to attack the lair of the Zhade tribe." Cheng Lian was excited and hurried to Lu Yi to report in a low voice.

"The elite troops of the Zade tribe came out in full force, and only some old and weak ones stayed in the old nest. When they saw us suddenly rushing out, they were so shocked that they didn't organize a decent resistance at all. We only lost four or five men, and successfully took control of the entire camp at nightfall."

"The Zhade tribe is indeed the richest and most powerful tribe on this grassland. It has abundant supplies. We have horses alone..." Zhang Jia added with a beaming smile.

But Lu Yi waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Jia's report and asked Cheng Lian with concern.

"Have the injured brothers been properly taken care of?"

"Only one person died from an arrow wound to the face, the rest only had superficial injuries and have been properly taken care of!"

When Cheng Lian and others saw that Lu Yi valued profit but cared about his injured brothers first, they felt warm in their hearts and felt more and more that they had followed the right person.

"Alas!" Lu Yi sighed and instructed: "The injured brothers should pay attention to care and diet. As for the fallen brothers, their bodies should be properly buried. Together with the brothers who died in the encounter with Zador yesterday, their bodies and pensions should be returned to their relatives when we return to Bingzhou."

"Yes!" Cheng Lian and others were moved and nodded repeatedly after hearing this. This was also a good thing for them.

Merchants traveling across the border might die one day, and perhaps they would be the next one, so after hearing Lu Yi's instructions, they decided to do their best to get the job done.

As Lu Yi was speaking, he suddenly saw the servants in the tent dealing with the bodies of the Zade soldiers who had fought stubbornly and were killed last night.

The cold bodies were loaded into carts and taken outside the camp for burial.

Most of these corpses are old people, and there are few young people.

Lu Yi watched the cart pass by and said nothing.

When two armies fight, casualties are inevitable.

But the body of one of the teenage children made him frown.

"Why did you kill a teenager?"

Such a small boy is not even as tall as the wheels of a cart. Even the Hu people would not kill such a young child.

"This Hu was cunning. He pretended to be scared last night and took advantage of the chaos to kill a fellow who was not on guard against him. Therefore, I ordered him to be executed."

When Cheng Lian heard Lu Yi's greeting, he snorted coldly and replied dissatisfiedly.

"The Hu people are brutal and cruel. I never thought that even the Hu children who have not yet grown up are so cunning..." Lu Yi remained silent.

But after he changed his mind, he felt relieved.

The living environment of the Hu people is far worse than that of the Han people inside the Great Wall. In such a precarious environment, benevolence, righteousness and compassion will only kill themselves.

After being screened by the cruel laws of survival on the prairie, most of those who survive are brutal, cunning, and violence-worshipping people.

Because of his power, the young chief of the Hunye tribe has not suffered any hardship since childhood, so he can still maintain an innocent heart.

The dead boy in front of him must have lived at the bottom of the Zade tribe and could only protect himself with cruel and cunning weapons.

"Go and entertain Huang Yi and the Hunye tribe first, I'll be there later." After Lv Yi sighed for a while, he sent Lv Bu, Cheng Lian and others away, leaving only Zhang Jia alone, and walked into an empty tent together. "Tell me, what did you get last night?"

After no one answered, Lu Yi went straight to the point.

After drinking and eating meat, the next step is to divide the spoils.

Although he will definitely host this conference himself, it is still necessary to figure out the specific numbers before doing so.

"I have prepared two account books, please check them, Master Shopkeeper."

Zhang Jia took out two account books, one thick and one thin, from his arms.

After thinking about it, Lu Yi picked up the thick book and started reading it quickly.

Although this account book records everything in great detail, it is difficult to detect any problems.

However, Lu Yi understood that this was written specifically for Huang Yi, He Xutuo and others, and the numbers and items must have been deleted.

But even so, Lu Yi was still amazed by the wealth of the old servant Ang Riduo.

"Two thousand strong cattle, thirty thousand fat sheep, a thousand strong horses, countless bows, arrows, swords, and leather armor..."

"My goodness, how many tribes did this old slave plunder? How could he have accumulated such a huge fortune?"

As Lu Yi watched, his face began to turn red.

Inside the Great Wall, a cow was worth four to eight thousand coins.

Each sheep costs 300-500 coins.

The price of a slow horse pulling a cart usually ranges from eight thousand to twenty thousand coins.

Generally, a healthy horse that can be used as a war horse is worth between 20,000 and 100,000 coins.

An excellent horse can be sold for as much as 200,000 coins.

The top-notch horses have no upper limit on their price and are in high demand.

The spoils of war captured by the Zade tribe, not to mention the healthy horses that could be used as war horses, were worth more than 20 million coins, estimated at the minimum standard of 20,000 coins.

What is the concept of 20 million yuan?
According to the price list of the official positions sold openly by Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, in Xiyuan, a prefect of a county with a salary of 2,000 dan would only be sold for 20 million coins.

In this case, if Lu Yi Guang brought these war horses back to the interior, he could easily exchange them for the position of prefect of a county, and become a frontier official who controlled the fate of hundreds of thousands of people fifteen years ahead of Comrade Liu Bei!

Afterwards, as long as Lu Yi handed over the share money to Emperor Ling in full and on time, he could build high walls, store up food, and secretly train assassins.

As long as the Yellow Turbans are together, they can immediately evolve into a local lord on the spot, make great strides forward, and sit on the poker table for the Central Plains before the protagonists.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi's breathing even began to quicken.

"Five million in cash..."

But when he continued to scroll down, his brows furrowed.

"What did Zhang Jia do? I told him yesterday that it's hard to move the cattle, sheep, horses, weapons and leather armor in such a hurry, but why did the high value-added spoils such as money and goods remain on the account book?"

It seemed that he could see what Lu Yi was thinking at the moment.

"Don't blame me, shopkeeper. The goods worth five million dollars recorded in this account book are nothing but old stuff. I have already secretly ordered people to take the real essence out of the tent and hide it in a dense forest ten miles away." Zhang Jia chuckled calmly and handed over another thinner real account book with both hands.

"Oh?" Lu Yi's mind moved, and he immediately grabbed the account book and started to check it.
