Although the matter ended like this, apart from Leng Yun, everyone in the Zhang family was somewhat unhappy.
Even Zhang Xiaoxue began to doubt whether she was doing the right thing. She now felt that Leng Yun seemed to be taking advantage of her misfortune.
Subsequently, a family meeting of the Zhang family was held.
At the meeting, it will be decided who will manage the Zhang family from now on.
Besides Zhang Daqian and his two sons' families, many other members of the Zhang family were also sitting below, waiting for the outcome of the meeting.
Actually, everyone already knew the outcome; Zhang Yinghao was bound to win in the end.
In recent years, Zhang Yinghao has amassed power and used various means to bring most of the Zhang family's businesses under his own name.
In contrast, Zhang Yingjun had very few resources at his disposal.
Therefore, many members of the Zhang family had already begun to secretly curry favor with Zhang Yinghao's family.
Under everyone's gaze, Zhang Daqian sat upright at the very front.
"Ahem, without further ado, everyone knows the purpose of our meeting today. Let's begin with the two candidates from the Zhang family, Zhang Yinghao and Zhang Yingjun," Zhang Daqian said.
Then, Zhang Yinghao and Zhang Yingjun walked up to the crowd.
Leng Yun sat quietly on the chair next to him, watching. Zhang Xiaoxue sat beside him, her fair hands gripping his arm, looking very nervous.
"I want to say that you are brothers after all. Whoever becomes the head of the family, don't forget that you are family." Zhang Daqian clearly knew Zhang Yinghao's personality, which is why he said such a thing.
In Leng Yun's eyes, Zhang Daqian seemed to have become just a helpless old man at this moment.
Zhang Yinghao, however, looked smug and said, "Don't worry, I'll take good care of my brother."
He emphasized the word "take care" to the extreme, while Wang, standing beside him, wore a smug expression.
Zhang Daqian sighed: "Let's begin. Please have each candidate state the resources they possess. Whoever has more resources will become the head of the Zhang family."
Then, the two began to talk about the resources they had in front of everyone.
However, it is obvious that Zhang Yinghao's claims about land, shops, connections, etc., completely overwhelm Zhang Yingjun's.
Ten minutes later, after the two finished speaking, the result was obvious: Zhang Yinghao had won without a doubt.
"Father, please announce the results." Madam Wang revealed an extremely smug smile.
Zhang Daqian sighed, "Oh well, fine—"
"and many more!"
Someone suddenly spoke, interrupting Zhang Daqian, something that had never happened before in the Zhang family.
Everyone turned to look at the source of the sound, wondering who was so bold, only to find that it was Leng Yun.
Meanwhile, Zhang Xiaoxue, standing next to Leng Yun, was heartbroken. She hadn't expected that even finding a fake boyfriend wouldn't be enough to win against Zhang Yinghao's family.
Now that everything has settled, this fake boyfriend is of no use anymore.
So Zhang Xiaoxue didn't even notice that Leng Yun had stood up.
Upon seeing that he was merely a prospective son-in-law of the Zhang family, everyone began to mock Leng Yun.
"Haha, you think you have a right to speak here? Get down here right now," Zhang Yinghao said, speaking with the air of a family head.
At this moment, Zhang Xiaoxue realized what had happened and quickly got up to pull Leng Yun back.
"What's wrong with you? Don't go crazy. This is the Zhang family home." Zhang Xiaoxue said to Leng Yun, her face flushed and her eyes red.
Leng Yun smiled slightly: "I'm not here to take advantage of your misfortune."
Zhang Xiaoxue was taken aback and felt a little embarrassed. It turned out that Leng Yun had seen through her heart long ago.
Then, Leng Yun walked to Zhang Yingjun's side and took out a jade bottle from the system space.
"These are 50 Qi-Boosting Pills. I'm giving them all to Zhang Yingjun now," Leng Yun said.
These words surprised everyone present.
"what!"
"50 Qi-Boosting Pills? You're kidding me!"
"Judging from its appearance, it seems to be real."
"How is that possible? How could anyone possess so many Qi-raising pills? Even the entire Angu Kingdom doesn't have any."
"Who the hell is this kid?"
Even Zhang Daqian was so shocked that he couldn't sit still. He walked to Leng Yun's side, took the jade bottle, and poured out a pill with trembling hands.
"It really is 50 Qi-Boosting Pills!" Zhang Daqian said, his voice trembling.
After Zhang Daqian's personal verification, no one doubted it anymore. However, everyone was even more surprised. Just what kind of background did Zhang Xiaoxue's boyfriend have?
Even Zhang Xiaoxue herself was speechless, but then she thought that since Leng Yun had used these pills to feed the fighting roosters, he was fully capable of producing just as many pills today.
Zhang Xiaoxue didn't know how lucky she was, and even thought that it wouldn't be bad if this man really was her boyfriend.
"Young friend Leng Yun, are you really going to give these 50 pills to my second son?" Zhang Daqian asked.
Leng Yun shrugged. These pills might be priceless in their eyes, but in Leng Yun's heart, they were less valuable than sugar pills.
"Consider it compensation for the Zhang family's luminous cup and the 5th-grade divine artifact," Leng Yun said indifferently, not taking it seriously at all.
"Good! Good! Xiaoxue was right about you!" Zhang Daqian said excitedly.
Both sides got what they wanted. Leng Yun exchanged the Qi-Boosting Pill for a divine artifact that turned into experience points, while the Zhang family exchanged the divine artifact for what they considered to be priceless Qi-Boosting Pills. Both sides were very satisfied.
“Since Yingjun has 50 Qi-raising pills, then such resources are naturally the strongest. I hereby declare Yingjun the next head of the Zhang family!” Zhang Daqian said, trembling.
"That's fantastic!" Zhang Xiaoyu exclaimed.
"Thank you, Leng Yun!" Zhang Xiaoxue cried with emotion.
The plot twist surprised the Zhang family, but they also understood why.
Because the value of 50 Qi-Boosting Pills is so great that it could completely elevate the Zhang family to a first-class family in Angu Kingdom.
At that time, countless alchemists and pill merchants will come to curry favor with the Zhang family, and countless high-ranking officials and nobles will also come, all for the sake of obtaining a Qi-raising pill.
At this moment, Zhang Yinghao's family looked as if they had swallowed poison, each of them displaying a shocked, disbelieving, and pained expression.
"Remember, you will always be brothers." Zhang Daqian patted Zhang Yingjun on the shoulder.
Zhang Yingjun nodded: "I understand, Father. Don't worry."
Zhang Daqian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the reassurance that came from Zhang Yingjun was the only true reassurance.
"Hmph, don't be too smug. The guests will be here soon, and you'll be in for a surprise," Zhang Yinghao thought coldly.
After all, he had been away from home for many years and had a wide network of connections, including many important figures in the medicine city who were his friends.
When these guests arrive, Zhang Yinghao plans to use these important figures to force Zhang Daqian and Zhang Yingjun to relinquish their positions as family heads.
This was Zhang Yinghao's last trump card.
"Hmph, you people, just you wait!" Zhang Yinghao said angrily.
