Chapter 64 Passionate
"Mr. Zhang, it turns out that my Lu family was not born and raised in Jiuyuan, but moved here twenty years ago?"

"Why didn't my father ever tell us about this?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Yi no longer bothered to recruit servants, and immediately asked Zhang Sou with a serious look.

Upon hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but narrow his eyes and look at Zhang Sou who was a little surprised.

"Huh?" Zhang Sou was also stunned when he heard this: "Brother Lu has never told you about these things?"

Seeing that the expressions on Lu Yi and Lu Bu's faces did not seem fake, Zhang Sou could not help but become curious.

"I don't know much about this matter, and Brother Lu has never told us about these things."

"Back then, he was holding you two children in his arms, and broke into our Jiuyuanli alone with injuries all over his body, and then he fainted."

"It was my late wife who found Brother Lu and called for help. We were able to bring Brother Lu back home and rescue him."

"Since then, Brother Lu has taken you two children to settle in my Jiuyuan and has never left for the rest of his life."

"Brother Lu is an extraordinary martial artist, especially his halberd technique, which makes him appear and disappear like a ghost. A dozen big men can't get close to him. Thanks to his protection, our Jiuyuan Village has been much more peaceful since then."

"I saw that it was inconvenient for him as a middle-aged man to take care of two children, so I even suggested a marriage for him. However, Brother Lu told him that he wanted to devote all his energy to taking care of you two, so he never remarried and raised you two by himself."

"So that's how it is!" Lu Yi was shocked, and suddenly felt that his life experience became more and more confusing and bizarre.

"Mr. Zhang, do you still remember what happened when my father came to the village?" Lu Bu asked repeatedly.

Not only Lu Yi was curious about his own life experience, but Lu Bu was also the same. When the two brothers were young, they asked their father Lu about their life experiences, but their father scolded them harshly every time, so they could only bury their curiosity deep in their hearts.

Now that there seemed to be witnesses to this incident, the two brothers were extremely anxious.

"Hmm? It's been so long. Let me recall..."

After Mr. Zhang frowned and thought for a long time, his cloudy old eyes suddenly lit up.

"I remember now. Although your father was covered in blood when he came to Jiuyuanli, his clothes were very elegant. He looked like a wealthy man."

"And he spoke fluent Luoyang Mandarin at the time, but after staying in Jiuyuan for a year or two and learning our local dialect, he seemed to have forgotten his hometown accent and never spoke with a Luoyang accent again."

"others……"

Old man Zhang frowned for a long time, but still couldn't recall any valuable clues.

"Your father has always lived in seclusion and rarely interacted with the neighbors. There is nothing else..."

"So there is such a hidden secret!" Lu Bu was shocked when he heard this.

But Lu Yi's thoughts were wandering.

Luoyang accent...

Luxurious clothes, extraordinary martial arts...

After being seriously injured and moving to Jiuyuan, he lived in seclusion...

I would rather be a widower for the rest of my life to take care of my children...

"It seems this Mr. Lu has a lot of story!" Lu Yi frowned deeply.

In ancient times, people valued returning to their roots and attached great importance to their hometown.

Generally speaking, only those who are incompetent and have a poor life would choose to leave their hometown and become a refugee.

The description of Lü Fu in Zhang Sou's mouth not only shows that he is dressed elegantly and has outstanding martial arts skills, but it is clear that he did not end up in this border area because of poverty. Moreover, judging from the clues that he was seriously injured, lived in seclusion and never mentioned his past, it is very likely that he had to retreat to this place to avoid his enemies.

"It seems that my life experience is not only secret, but also quite dangerous!"

"There are still too few clues. We can only see if there is a chance to get new clues from other places in the future."

"Luoyang..."

"My plan originally required me to go to Luoyang to make some arrangements, but now it seems that I have to add other additional requirements..."

After Lu Yi sighed, he slowly put the matter deep in his heart.

"Haha, thank you, Mr. Zhang, for clearing up my doubts. Mr. Zhang, please accept this thousand yuan."

An approachable smile reappeared on Lu Yi's face. He signaled to Gao Shun, who was guarding the money box. Gao Shun immediately opened the thick wooden box in public, took out a string of one thousand coins from the money box filled with copper coins and handed it to Lu Yi.

"How can this be done?" Upon seeing this, Mr. Zhang smiled so hard that he couldn't open his eyes. Although he said no, his hands took the item very quickly, and his speed was almost as fast as that of a young man.

"Wow... so much money!" Zhang Xin behind Zhang Sou widened his eyes at the dazzle of the countless copper coins in the cash box, and an unconcealable look of greed was revealed on his face.

The other villagers who gathered around Lu Yi's recruitment stall also showed expressions of shock and envy.

"Just now, Mr. Zhang said that he wanted Brother Zhang Xin to come and help his nephew. I have seen that Brother Zhang Xin is always smart, so let him come and be the leader of the caravan." Lu Yi continued.

Since we want to set an example, we might as well be generous.

Zhang Xin himself knew this person's character well. Apart from being greedy, lustful and slick, he was actually quite loyal and not a cruel and ruthless person with no bottom line.

"In this way, this bastard can learn how to behave under Sixiao, and I can feel a lot more at ease." Old Man Zhang was very happy to hear this. If it wasn't still early spring, the wrinkles on his old face could kill a few mosquitoes when he smiled.

"Hehe, thank you Sixiao for your kindness, but I don't know how much this captain earns per month, and how many people he is in charge of?" Zhang Xin couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that. He was the one who looked at the money most carefully yesterday when Lu Yi was distributing it. It was impossible not to envy those younger knights who were not as famous and experienced as him and went home with full pockets.

"The monthly salary is one thousand coins, and you are in charge of four employees." Lu Yi said with a smile.

"So many?" Zhang Xin was shocked when he heard that.

You have to know that even if you go to Jiuyuan County to work for a wealthy businessman, you will only be paid 200-400 coins a month with meals provided.

The treatment of Mr. Lu Yi is already quite good in the poor and desolate Jiuyuan where every family only has a dozen acres of poor land.

"What? If you think it's too much, I can advise my elder brother to reduce it." Seeing this, Lu Bu snorted coldly and said sarcastically.

Zhang Xin has always regarded himself as an elder to Lu Yi. If Lu Yi had not been tolerant and forgiving, Lu Bu would have said anything to make this old bastard face the reality.

Not everyone can take advantage of his seniority in front of his brother.

"It's not too much, it's not too much! This is the reward given to me by the big manager, how can I think it's too much? Fengxian, you are joking with me, brother!" Zhang Xin has been in the underworld for half his life, how could he not see the dissatisfaction in Lu Bu's heart? Now that he has got the benefits, he doesn't mind being submissive and doing a good job.

"What a smart guy..." Seeing this, Lu Yi chuckled and didn't say anything.

"Boss, what do you think of my kid?"

"My son is as strong as an ox, he will definitely be able to help the big boss!"

"Sixiao, why don't you go and see your aunt's child..."

However, when the neighbors saw that Zhang Xin had gained benefits, they pushed their young men to surround Lu Yi with great enthusiasm.
