Chapter 5: Enough Ammunition

  Just as they were talking, a middle-aged man walked in and said: "Dad, I've asked many people to help me buy it, but the gun still hasn't arrived!" As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man saw Zhang Lieyang. Old Master Zhang smiled and introduced him, saying: "Lieyang, this is your second uncle!"

  Then Old Man Zhang said to the middle-aged man, "Qihua, this is your older brother Qiyue's son!" After being introduced, Zhang Lieyang respectfully called out "Second Uncle" and curiously asked, "Grandfather, what do you want to buy a gun for?"

  "Of course I'll take care of it!" Zhang Qihua said nonchalantly.

  Upon hearing Second Uncle's words, Zhang Lieyang smiled and opened his own suitcase, saying: "Second Uncle, here are eight Mauser pistols and six German-made P40 submachine guns, along with over a thousand rounds of ammunition, please accept them!"

  After seeing the guns in the box, Old Man Zhang smiled and asked: "Kid, why are you carrying so many guns when going out?"

  "Grandpa, I've had a rough journey here. Except for the fourteen guns sent to you, my own car is also loaded with military supplies!" Zhang Lieyang said with a smile.

  At this time, the housekeeper walked in and said: "Old master, old madam wants young master to come over for a visit!"

  "Child, go take a look at your grandma!" Old Man Zhang said with a smile.

  "Grandpa, I'll go first and come back to chat with you later!" Zhang Lieyang said as he bid farewell to Second Uncle Zhang Qihuai and followed the butler away.

  Watching Zhang Lieyang leave, Old Man Zhang smiled and said to Zhang Qihu: "Qihua, it's really the heavens helping us!" As he spoke, Old Man Zhang pointed at the three boxes of gold on the table and said: "This is the 3,000 gold bars your elder brother had Lieyang bring back. You take them and put them into the company's working capital!"

  "Yes, Father!" Zhang Qihua continued, "No wonder Lieyang brought so many military supplies! He actually carries that much gold with him!"

  The housekeeper led Zhang Lieyang to the main room in the backyard, where an old woman was just coming out. The housekeeper hurried forward and said: "Madam, I've brought Young Master!"

  The old woman looked at Zhang Lieyang beside the housekeeper, smiled slightly and nodded. Zhang Lieyang quickly reacted and knelt down, saying: "Grandma, grandson is back!"

  The old woman doted on him, pulled up Zhang Lieyang and said: "Really like your father!" As soon as Zhang Lieyang heard the old woman's words, he smiled in his heart: "Father said that I and Grandpa are carved out of a mold. Since pretending, it's better to pretend thoroughly!"

  "Grandma, I've come back to see you!" Zhang Lieyang said hastily. He took out the set of jewelry he had bought from "Chou Tianbao" and said, "Grandma, your grandson doesn't know what you like, so I just bought this to give to you. Take a look and see if you like it?"

  "What's this?" The old woman took the gift box, opened it and looked at it, smiling and saying: "Your return is the best gift, why did you buy such an expensive thing for this old lady!"

  "Grandma, do you like it?!" Zhang Lieyang mischievously asked.

  "I like it, of course I like it! Whatever you give to Grandma, Grandma likes!" The old woman happily pulled Zhang Lieyang into the house.

  As she walked into the house, the old woman immediately called for someone to serve tea to Zhang Lieyang and said: "Child, you must be tired! Come and drink some water quickly!" Zhang Lieyang pretended to take a sip from the teacup and said: "The tea from our hometown is still the best, the water from our hometown is still the best!"

  "Children, how have you been living outside all these years?" the old woman asked with concern. Upon hearing the old woman's words, Zhang Lieyang thought to himself, "Fortunately, I know about my grandfather and his experiences in Southeast Asia; otherwise, it would be difficult for me today!" Thinking this, Zhang Lieyang quickly replied:

  "After my father and uncle arrived in Southeast Asia, Uncle took my father around to work for others, using the opportunity to understand local conditions and prepare for starting their own business. After four years of hard work, Uncle opened a farm in Southeast Asia, specializing in planting rubber, coffee, coconuts, and other tropical crops. Until my father graduated from university in Southeast Asia, Uncle handed over the management of the farm to him. Later, at an accidental classmate gathering, my father met the eldest daughter of the Chen family, who was a prominent local family, and that's how he met my mother. They fell in love gradually, got married soon after, and had me two years later. Now our farm has expanded to six branches in Southeast Asia, and we also have a gold mine! This time, my father asked me to bring back three thousand gold bars produced by our own gold mine!"

  After hearing Zhang Lieyang's introduction, the old woman nodded in satisfaction and asked: "Child, how old are you this year?"

  "Grandma, I'm 19 this year!" Zhang Lieyang replied with a smile.
