My younger brother Lü Fengxian

Chapter 53 Brain Supplement Master (Thanks for the reward! Three updates today!)
"Hmm? It sounds like Xun'er's voice?" Zhang Jia turned around immediately after hearing the voice, and was stunned when he found that it was indeed Zhang Xun?
"Xun'er is not in the fort, why did he come to the Great Wall?"

Zhang Jia and Huang Yi beside him apologized and immediately went to meet Zhang Xun.

"My uncle and the caravan have been gone for two months, leaving my father and nephew waiting for a long time. Why are you asking about me now?"

Zhang Xun dismounted from a distance and galloped over. When he reached Zhang Jia, he said something dissatisfied.

"Haha, it was my uncle's fault for not sending anyone back to Mayi to inform us first. Please don't blame me, Xun'er!" Zhang Jia was close to Zhang Xun and was not annoyed when he was questioned by him. Instead, he apologized with a smile.

"Who is this?" Huang Yi, who was standing by, raised his eyebrows when he saw this.

"Please let General Huang know that this is Zhang Xun, the young patriarch of the Zhang family in Mayi!" Upon hearing this, Zhang Jia immediately and enthusiastically introduced Zhang Xun to Huang Yi. His words were full of admiration and pride for this most promising descendant of the young generation.

"Oh, it turns out that it is the young patriarch of the Zhang family. Huang did not prepare any gifts for our first meeting. I see that the young patriarch is strong and must be a martial artist. This exquisitely made Hu bow is a perfect gift for him!" Huang Yi said "Oh", thought about it, and then took out a Hu bow from behind that he had selected from the spoils of the Zhade tribe and prepared for his own use.

"Zhang Xun greets General Huang. I thank General Huang for his kindness, but I have not done anything. How can I accept such an important gift from General Huang?" Zhang Xun took a look at the horse bow in Huang Yi's hand. Being an expert in archery, he immediately realized that this Hu bow was well-made and must be worth a lot of money. He immediately fell in love with this good bow. However, it would be too rude for him to accept such an important gift when he and Huang Yi met for the first time, so he had to refuse it.

"Xun'er, since it is General Huang's good intention, you should accept it." Zhang Jia laughed. He was also happy to facilitate the friendship between his young patriarch and a powerful person like Huang Yi.

"In that case, I would be disrespectful to refuse it!" Zhang Xun thought about it and his love for Hu Gong prevailed. Seeing that Zhang Jia also said so, he accepted the gift.

"Haha, Huang is responsible for defending the city and cannot leave his post without permission, so I'll send it here!" Huang Yi couldn't help but smile when he saw Zhang Xun accepting the gift, and said goodbye politely to Zhang Jia and Zhang Xun.

"General Huang, you are too polite. Zhang Jia will come to visit you again in a few months!" Zhang Jia also left the pass with Zhang Xun and others.

"Uncle, what happened in the past two months?"

"Why can't I see Lu Yi and the caravan, but only my uncle and a few followers?"

"Also, Huang Yi has been guarding the pass for many years. He is notorious for corruption and has always been arrogant and domineering. Why is he so polite to my uncle? And he even gave me an expensive Hu bow?"

After leaving the pass and walking only a few miles, Zhang Xun, who could no longer keep something hidden in his mind, impatiently asked Zhang Jia what had happened.

"Haha, Xun'er, be patient."

"This matter is all thanks to the wise and brave manager and his good leadership!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jia couldn't help but show a look of pride on his face.

"Head Manager? Uncle, are you talking about Lu Yi?"

Zhang Xun was stunned when he heard this.

"Yes, the clan leader has a keen eye and can actually come up with the idea of ​​partnering with the chief shopkeeper to do business. This time the caravan made a lot of profit. My Zhang family may be able to use this as an opportunity to rise again!"

Zhang Jia thought of the regrets of his ancestors and couldn't help but sigh.

"How much money did Lu Yi make? Why did my uncle say that the Zhang family will rise from this?" Zhang Xun was shocked when he heard this.

"Let's talk about the specific situation when we meet the clan leader!" Zhang Jia said with a faint smile when he saw that Zhang Xun seemed to want to ask more questions.

"Well... okay..." Zhang Xun could only nod and suppress his curiosity. At noon on the third day, Zhang Jia finally returned to his family after being away for more than two months.

As soon as he showed up, Zhang Shang, who got the news, hurried over to greet him with Zhang Wan'er and Zhang Liao.

"Brother!" As soon as Zhang Jia saw Zhang Shang coming to greet him, he dismounted his horse and walked towards him happily.

"Huh? Zhang Jia, why did you come back alone? Where did the caravan and Lu Yi go?" But when Zhang Shang saw that he returned alone, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked nervously.

Then, without waiting for Zhang Jia to answer, he began to talk to himself and speculate.

"Did something happen to the caravan?"

"Oh! I've long known that Lu Yi is just a brute and brave guy, not a businessman!"

"Now, it's fine. He and his brothers died outside the Great Wall. Even my Zhang's coffin was buried with him!"

"It's really pitiful that the Zhang family has saved up these two million yuan with their own hard work for generations!"

As Zhang Shang was talking, he actually burst into tears in front of everyone. There was no trace of the bearing of a clan leader left in him. His children, including Zhang Xun, Zhang Wan'er, and Zhang Liao, all looked ashamed, embarrassed, and helpless.

"What a joke my eldest brother is. He starts to imagine things again!" Zhang Jia sighed. He and Zhang Shang were together day and night, so how could he not know about Zhang Shang's problems? He immediately wanted to explain the situation to him.

However, Zhang Shang was obviously faster than him. He walked up to Zhang Jia with a look of relief on his face, took his hand, and expressed his gratitude repeatedly.

"But it's good that you can come back, Zhang Jia. You are my only cousin. If you die outside the Great Wall, I will not be able to explain to my deceased uncle."

"As for the caravan, even if the sky falls, I will protect you. You don't have to worry about being attacked by the tribe members. At worst, I, Zhang Shang, will step down as the tribe leader!"

Although Zhang Shang was a stingy person, he attached great importance to family affection. In his opinion, money can be earned again if lost, but losing family members is something that cannot be replaced by any amount of money.

"Brother, what are you talking about! The caravan is still here!" Although Zhang Jia's tone was filled with helplessness and complaint, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart.

When it comes to business ability, Zhang Jia is not inferior to Zhang Shang at all. He originally had a great opportunity to compete for the clan leader, but because he was grateful for Zhang Shang's preferential treatment of his relatives, he was willing to give up his position and assist him.

"What? The caravan is still here?"

"That's good! That's good!"

When Zhang Shang heard what Zhang Jia said, although he still looked worried, at least his tears stopped.

"It seems that this trip out of the border is still full of dangers. Although the goods are gone, the caravan is still there, which is a blessing in disguise!"

"The caravan is more valuable than the goods. As long as the caravan is still there, the Zhang family will at most suffer some injuries. They will be able to recover in a few years!"

"Brother, the goods are fine!" Zhang Jia was speechless towards his elder brother. He took a deep breath, suppressed his temper and emphasized word by word!
