Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

"But... I've heard that woman is promiscuous and brings different men home."

Aunt Liu was still not giving up and wanted to continue asking for more details.

"Auntie, we've investigated the case thoroughly. There's nothing messy about it. Please don't spread rumors and ruin the reputation of Beisi Hutong."

Hearing Chang Kun say this, Aunt Liu smiled awkwardly. These old women have nothing better to do than gossip, they don't care about anything else.

"Listening to opera, listening to opera... those things have nothing to do with us."

Before the song was even finished, four maids rushed in from outside.

"Big brother, big brother, we're back!"

"Where have you been playing? You're all sweaty!"

Each girl had strands of hair on her forehead, and who knows where she'd gone off to play late at night.

"Big brother, we're going on an adventure!" Chang Qing exclaimed excitedly.

"An adventure?" Chang Kun was taken aback. "Where in?"

What fun things are there around here? Why would anyone want to go on an adventure?

"Go to a hutong to the north. My friend there said there was some kind of secret door there, and their house was ransacked. He told us to go treasure hunting there."

"Big brother, look, this is the treasure we found!" Xiao Shui held up a broken shoe.

"This is mine!" Xiaoqing said, holding a tattered piece of cloth in her hand.

"What? You went to steal something?!" Chang Kun exclaimed in shock.

Xiuer's eyes widened: "Big brother, there are so many people searching for treasure there, we kids can't squeeze in, so we picked these up at the entrance."

Holy crap! I was careless!

At the time, Chang Kun and his team seized a large sum of money and were only concerned with transporting it back to their unit as quickly as possible. They simply closed the gate and sealed it off, without arranging for anyone to guard it.

That's great, I bet all the tattered clothes, doors, windows, and cabinets in that house have been taken away.

These days, nobody cares if these things are old and worn out. Not to mention, how many families still have five or six-year-old children running around outside naked every day?

"You stay at home, I'll go check on you." Now that we know about this, we can't just sit idly by.

"I'll go take a look too." As a police officer at Gulou Police Station, Chang Dashan also wanted to do his part.

"Come on, Dad, I'll take you there, we're sure to make a fortune!" Chang Qing and the other girls thought their father and brother were going to take them treasure hunting, so they skipped and jumped ahead to lead the way.

"What can you find now? The surrounding residents have already emptied the place." Liu Meifen originally wanted to go and see if she could get something for free, but she had Grandpa Hong and Grandma Liu at home, and she couldn't just leave them there.

When Chang Kun and his group arrived, the secluded courtyard was still bustling with people, and a burst of noise reached their ears.

"Damn it, I'm late, there's nothing left!"

"I heard someone brought a cabinet home!"

"Damn it, I saw that piece of cloth first!"

"Give it to me! I want to see who dares to steal it!"

Peeking out, the courtyard looked as if it had been licked clean; all the filth on the ground had been picked up and cleaned up. Occasionally, someone would find a tattered cloth or a broken bowl, and treat it like a treasure, hiding it in their bosom, not daring to let anyone see it.

Those who come to take advantage of others all believe that having something that others don't have is good, and they'll take whatever they can get.

"Dad, Big Brother, hurry up and rush in! Otherwise, all the treasure will be taken by others!"

The four maids, unable to squeeze in, jumped up and down anxiously outside the gate.

"What are you doing! Put everything down! You dare to rob a house that's been sealed off by the police?"

Chang Kun walked through the courtyard and into the room, and seeing that there was nothing left, he could only shout something.

Let alone the principle of "the law does not punish the masses" at that time, even in later generations, when those old men and women ran into other people's fields to loot, the police still couldn't do anything about them.

"Who are you? What are you shouting for!" Several old ladies were already angry because they hadn't managed to grab anything, and when they saw Chang Kun still daring to yell, they wanted to throw a tantrum.

"Say one more word, and I'll be a police officer. Did you steal the things? Come on, let's search your house!"

Chang Kun wasn't going to tolerate such a shrewish old woman; these people were just bullies who preyed on the weak.

Seeing that Chang Kun wasn't wearing a police uniform, the old woman was about to continue her rambling when someone next to her nudged her.

"This young comrade is indeed a policeman. I saw him in the police force this afternoon."

Hearing people say this, the old lady dared not say anything more. Since ancient times, the common people have never fought against the officials, and this time was no different.

She dared not look at Chang Kun again, and shrank back as she slipped out.

When the others who were searching heard that the police had really arrived, they dared not linger any longer and all ran away.

Don't end up with nothing but trouble.

Chang Kun looked around and found that the house had been completely ransacked, so there was no need to stand guard there.

After closing the door, he spat twice on the seal that was dangling to the side and then reattached it.

People at that time had a really weak sense of the rule of law and showed no respect for the police seals.

Of course, this is also because the cost of breaking the law is too low. If there were surveillance cameras everywhere, it would be easy to leave doors unlocked at night and not pick up lost items.

"Big brother, why aren't you going treasure hunting?" Originally, seeing that their eldest brother had driven everyone else away, Xiao Qing and the other girls were thinking of monopolizing the treasure land, but they didn't expect to be driven out by their eldest brother.

"Are those your things?"

Chang Kun felt it was necessary to educate these girls, otherwise they might grow up to be a few lawless Little Red Guards.

The four girls shook their heads.

"You're going to steal things that aren't yours?"

"But! So many people are going to grab it, wouldn't we be at a disadvantage if we didn't go?" Xiaoqing pouted, clearly still unconvinced.

"Well...think about it, what if all these people were stealing our things today?"

"Then kill them!"

"Dare to steal from me? Beat them to a pulp!"

The four girls clenched their little fists and gritted their teeth.

"Isn't that it? You hate it when others take from you, so why do you go and take from others?"

Chang Qing tilted her head and thought for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, forget it then, there's nothing good over there anyway!"

Chang Kun felt helpless; all his efforts had been wasted.

They didn't find anything good on this treasure hunt, but if there's a next time, they'll probably still try to rob it.

Forget it, let's send it to school and let the teachers have a headache.

"When we get back, you should all go to sleep. Xiaomin will come to take you to school early tomorrow morning."

"Really? That's great!"

"I'm going to school!"

"Hahaha……"

Chang Qing, Chang Mu, and Xiao Shui were overjoyed, but Xiu'er pouted and looked sullen.

With her three older sisters all going to school, there was no one to play with her, so she could only eat free peach crisp crumbs and melted popsicle water at the supply and marketing cooperative.

These things were still unattainable delicacies for her just a few months ago.

Now, her older brother has spoiled her, and she doesn't really care for those things anymore.

"Alright, Xiuer, stop pouting. If you're tired of playing at home, your big brother will take you to his workplace later."

"Wow! Thank you, big brother!" Xiuer had long wanted to go to her brother's workplace to watch the trains.

Upon receiving the promise, she jumped into Chang Kun's arms and showered him with kisses.
