Under One Person: In the Lü Family, Liver Becomes Supreme

The next day, at the Lü family compound.

The sky was clear and the breeze was gentle.

Watching the two from the Celestial Master's Mansion depart, a trace of emotion flashed in the eyes of Lu Qiran, the head of the Lu family. He reached out and picked up the teacup beside him, drank it all in one gulp, and then looked at his nephew beside him.

"Xin'er, you've also dealt with this esteemed disciple of the Celestial Master's Mansion. Tell me your impressions."

He was rather curious about how he, a genius of the Lü family who had only been seen once in hundreds of years, would evaluate this esteemed disciple of the Celestial Master's Mansion.

Lu Xin was slightly taken aback, then gave a wry smile and gave his answer.

"Uncle, how can I be qualified to judge others? But let me put it this way, Zhang Zhiwei's talent is truly rare in this era. In my heart, his talent may be comparable to that of the former Master Ziyang."

During the Northern Song Dynasty, Master Ziyang, Zhang Boduan, was the founder of the Southern School of Alchemy. He pioneered the method of cultivating both body and mind, and was the founder of the Southern School of Quanzhen Alchemy.

He was exceptionally talented, and his theories had a significant influence on later extraordinary individuals, much like Lu Ban's influence on carpenters.

Almost all those who have acquired extraordinary abilities through cultivation know the name Zhang Boduan.

Lu Qiran raised an eyebrow, surprised that his family's genius would give the other party such high praise. He smiled, patted Lu Feng's shoulder, and spoke encouragingly.

"I have confidence in you, your uncle. Your future achievements will definitely not be inferior to his."

Seeing the encouraging smile on his uncle's face, Lü Xin was taken aback for a moment, and then returned the smile.

"Perhaps..."

As a time traveler, he naturally knew just how extraordinary Zhang Zhiwei, the pinnacle of this later era, was.

It is speculated that he will reach an unparalleled level of power around the age of forty.

If my innate abilities are strong enough, I might be able to catch up.

After finishing this matter, Lü Qiran seemed to have thought of something, waved to the servants beside him, and then spoke again.

"By the way, Xin'er, there's another matter I need you to handle. Our Lu family's escort agency has taken on a big job with expensive goods. The situation is rather chaotic right now, so we need some skilled people to go there."

"It's perfect timing, you need some experience, and the final destination is quite close to your grandfather's house, so you can go back and visit him afterward."

My nephew is exceptionally talented, but he has been cultivating and rarely handles clan affairs. This is a good opportunity to let him travel around.

Moreover, the current situation is chaotic, with rampant bandits, and the Lü family has many businesses that require skilled personnel to guard them.

Aside from the elders in the clan, Lü Feng was already considered the strongest, with enough strength to surpass some well-known masters in the martial arts world.

Lu Xin didn't have much objection to this, and nodded in agreement.

"Okay, when do I leave? Now?"

"Yes, the people in the clan are already waiting for you in Jiangcheng. I estimate that the goods are almost loaded."

Lu Qiran gave some more detailed instructions, a hint of worry in his eyes, and gave them another reminder as if he was still worried.

"I know you're precocious and have your own opinions on everything, but the outside world is different. There are all sorts of people out there, and even a seasoned veteran can easily fall into a trap."

"Those goods may be valuable, but they are not worth a hair on your head. If you encounter any emergency, put your life first."

After he finished giving his instructions, the servant who had received them brought over a horse.

Lu Xin mounted his horse and waved to Lu Qiran.

"Alright, Uncle, I'm leaving now."

Having said that, he immediately rode away without further delay.

From there it wasn't too far to Jiangcheng; thanks to the speed of the fine horses, we arrived at our destination in just half an hour.

…………

At the city gate of Jiangcheng, a line of horse-drawn carriages had been waiting for a long time.

A flag stood at the very front, displaying the four large black and gold characters of "Lu Family Escort Agency," exuding an imposing and extraordinary aura.

The Lü Family Escort Agency can be considered a pillar industry of the Lü family. It enjoys an excellent reputation and high security in the surrounding area, and rarely makes mistakes.

Below the flag stood a man wearing glasses and a Zhongshan suit, who was none other than Lü Liangshan, a member of the Lü family and the head of the escort agency.

Because he lacked the ability to become an extraordinary person, he went out early to manage the family affairs.

hiss! ! !

With a single neigh, a white horse galloped from afar and stopped in front of the carriage procession.

Upon seeing the young man on horseback, Lü Liangshan's face lit up with joy, and he hurried forward.

"Sixth Young Master, you've finally arrived."

After dismounting, Lü Xin greeted him with a smile: "Uncle Liangshan, it's been a long time."

Upon hearing this address, Lü Liangshan's smile deepened, and he led him to a carriage.

"Sixth Young Master, the carriage is ready. If you need anything on the road, just call me. If the journey goes smoothly, we should arrive around 7 PM today."

Lu Xin nodded and glanced at the cargo wagons. Several burly men from the security escort agency were guarding each wagon closely, preventing anyone from even getting close.

Upon seeing this sixth young master, the burly men quickly nodded politely in response.

These people were almost all under the control of the Lü family, carefully trained, and although they were not superhumans, they were considered skilled among ordinary people.

"Uncle Liangshan, what goods are you transporting this time? Why such a big commotion?"

Lü Liangshan hesitated for a moment, then said in a low voice, "Young Master, these are all medicines, imported from abroad."

"Our Lü family and several other merchants joined together to buy some medicine from abroad, and this shipment was intended to fetch a good price."

Lu Xin looked on with a hint of realization, then looked at the transport wagon and asked another question out of curiosity.

"Uncle Liangshan, I heard there are those cargo trucks, right? Doesn't our Lü family own a few?"

The Lü family had previously purchased several cars from abroad, but due to the terrain and road conditions, they were only used for long distances.

In this era, roads were scarce, and on winding and difficult roads, cars were no match for the extraordinary.

Some skilled individuals can travel five or six hundred miles at night without any problem, and with the addition of movement-enhancing talismans and water, their speed will only be even faster.

Upon hearing this, Lü Liangshan couldn't help but laugh and cry, and then began to explain.

"Young master, yes, we do have them, but they are quite expensive. Importing a truck from abroad, plus all the other miscellaneous costs, would cost nearly ten thousand silver dollars."

Then, as if remembering something, he spoke again to add to the story.

"Things are much better now. I heard that trucks have already been manufactured in the Northeast. The head of the family has sent people to inquire about it. If the road and rail network becomes more widespread, the escort agency may switch to truck transportation in the future."

Upon seeing the Sixth Young Master enter the carriage, Lü Liangshan did not delay any longer. He leaped onto his horse, bowed respectfully, and rang out in a deep and resonant voice.

"The Dragon Gate opens, the caravan departs! May our fellow travelers in the martial world look out for us, and may we arrive safely at our destination!"

"Everyone, let's start throwing the darts!!!"
