The Life of a Son-in-Law in a Courtyard House

The convoy couldn't carry the twelve robbers because all five vehicles were loaded with cargo.

If we leave those twelve robbers here unattended, they might escape, which would be a real problem.

So the team leader took his men to call the police.

Once you hand it over to the local police, that's fine.

Yang Dalin and Brother Tian stopped to watch them rest for a while.

Yang Dalin started a fire by the roadside, roasted the dry rations he had brought over the fire, heated a pot of water, and ate the rations with pickled vegetables.

Yang Dalin could actually produce a lot more delicious food, but seeing the twelve pitiful robbers, he didn't continue to provoke them.

Didn't you see the robbers looking pitifully at Yang Dalin's baked buns?

It's definitely not easy to take out Yang Dalin's meat.

There was no way to feed the bandits, and fearing they would all freeze to death, Yang Dalin prepared to give each of them some hot water.

When the first bandit's gag was removed, he cried out, "Young man, please, let us go! We really can't survive like this anymore!"

"I have elderly people and children at home; I was truly desperate and committed this crime."

Yang Dalin didn't believe a word of their pleas.

Many of these people are in their thirties or forties. Some of them may have been bandits or defeated soldiers in the past, and they may have done many heinous things.

There were also a few hooligans in their early twenties. Getting these people arrested will help clean up the surrounding environment.

Let's leave it to the local police to handle.

Yang Dalin said coldly, "Don't plead with me. Hot water. I'll pour you some if you want to drink it. If you don't, I'll gag you again."

Seeing that Yang Dalin showed them no pity, the man had no choice but to accept his fate.

He tilted his head back and Yang Dalin poured some hot water into his mouth.

In this day and age, many people don't brush their teeth, and Yang Dalin was prepared to use this kettle, so he would never let them touch it.

Upon hearing Yang Dalin's heartless words, Yang Dalin noticed that several people were staring at him coldly.

Their leader, in particular, practically exuded murderous intent.

Seeing this, Yang Dalin walked over, stepped on the other person's thigh, and stomped hard.

This guy had beads of sweat on his forehead.

His face was red with pain, and his mouth was gagged, so he couldn't scream.

All it could do was whimper.

Yang Dalin broke the other man's thigh with a single stomp.

Damn it, you think I'm going to spoil you?

I can tell you're looking for revenge. I'll give you a chance, but if you manage to escape, I'll just break your leg. That way you won't have a good chance of getting out.

Not afraid of being seen, Yang Dalin broke the other person's leg.

Good intentions are met with ingratitude; don't even bother drinking hot water, go to jail and drink cold boiled water instead.

Seeing how ruthless Yang Dalin was, the others struggled to get away from that idiot.

Their eyes softened considerably, and they whimpered, meaning they also wanted some hot water.

Yang Dalin, holding up the water bottle, asked, "Do any of you want some?"

Several people nodded vigorously, and Yang Dalin asked again, "You're not thinking of getting revenge on me, are you?"

Several people quickly shook their heads again.

Seeing that these people were behaving themselves, Yang Dalin said, "Alright, you guys are not bad. There's a saying that goes, 'A wise man submits to circumstances.'"

If you don't want to suffer, just be honest.

You guys did a good job, here's a drink for you.

But we have a deal. I'll pull back the cloth. No screaming, no pleading. You'll have to go to the police station and explain everything.

Otherwise, you shouldn't drink it either, okay?

The group nodded quickly.

"Alright, you guys be good. Come on, one by one, each of you have a couple of sips."

Then, Yang Dalin tore off the strips of cloth one by one and poured them a few mouthfuls of hot water.

In the dead of winter, being out in the wild is a blessing, even just having a sip of hot water is a blessing.

After giving the men some water, Yang Dalin remembered that he had only confiscated their weapons earlier.

We haven't even searched them yet, but these seasoned bandits might have some valuables on them.

Then Yang Dalin ran to the side and asked Brother Tian.

Brother Tian was eating by the fire when he saw Yang Dalin stomp on that big guy's foot.

He didn't pay any attention.

Brother Tian said, "Go ahead and search if you want, but don't touch the money or tickets. See if there's anything rare. Never mind, I'll go with you after I've eaten."

After finishing his food in a few bites, Brother Tian walked over to the group of robbers with Yang Dalin.

Yang Dalin said, "You all drank my water, so I can't let you drink it for free. I need to find some compensation. Everyone stay put and don't move. If anyone tries to move, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The group was terrified of Yang Dalin's ruthlessness. The leader glared at the other man fiercely, while the young man chuckled and stomped on his thigh until it was about to break.

This guy's ruthless; who would dare to cause trouble again?

The group nodded in agreement, as if to say, "Search whatever you want, take whatever you need."

Only the eldest brother, his face flushed with pain and veins bulging, didn't nod.

Yang Dalin started by touching the person on the far left.

It turned out that the kid only had two cents on him; he was a penniless wretch.

Yang Dalin stuffed the money back into his hand.

Then the second person didn't have anything good either.

Continuing on, the most I found was only a dozen or so yuan.

Yang Dalin stuffed them all back in.

Until that idiot boss, Yang Dalin found some good stuff.

Several tens of dollars, two silver dollars, and a dagger.

The dagger had a deerskin scabbard, which was only about 20 centimeters long.

Upon closer inspection, it didn't reflect light at all. The blade was entirely black and very sharp. It looked to be only about ten centimeters long, and I didn't know what metal it was made of.

It should be a good thing.

There is also a ruby ​​inlaid on the dagger handle.

This is a really good thing.

Yang Dalin gestured to Brother Tian, ​​indicating that it was a good item and that he would accept it.

Old Tian didn't speak, but nodded indifferently.

So, you're saying you should keep it? It's a weapon, too. Luckily you found it. What if this guy had taken it out himself, cut the rope, and tried to escape? But you noticed his intention to escape beforehand and broke his leg, so that's not bad.

If you like it, just keep it.

Yang Dalin tucked the dagger into his belt. The bandit leader's eyes widened in shock, and he whimpered, ignoring the pain, as if to return the dagger to him.

How could that be? Once it's in my hands, it's mine.

Two silver dollars. Yang Dalin glanced at them and his eyes narrowed.

Damn, I almost got caught.

Both silver coins had been handled so well that they developed a patina. One was a Fengtian Province-minted Gui Mao one-tael coin. Yang Dalin had seen a report about it before his time travel, saying that it had been auctioned for more than 46 million yuan.

There is also a Guangdong Province-minted silver coin with the double dragon and longevity character. This item is extremely rare and is said to be worth more than 20 million in later generations.

Surprisingly, this bandit leader is also a collector.

These two silver coins looked like they had been handled quite a bit. Yang Dalin, pretending not to know anything, took the two silver coins and said to the bandit leader, "Here you go."

After saying that, he stuffed it into his pocket. Actually, Yang Dalin took the opportunity to switch the bag when he put it back into his pocket.

There were several thousand silver dollars stolen from the black market in the space.

Yang Dalin simply exchanged two ordinary Yuan Shikai silver dollars for the money and stuffed them into his pocket.

Two silver dollars for two coins, right? I've already returned them.

Moreover, many police officers nowadays don't know the value of these silver dollars, so if they switch them out themselves, it's not a big problem.

Because it's highly likely that once the bandits enter the police station, they will be searched again and their belongings will be confiscated immediately.

The bandit leader probably felt a little relieved that Yang Dalin had returned the two silver dollars to him.

The dagger is definitely gone; it will be confiscated at the police station. But the silver coins aren't much of a threat. Let's see if we can keep them at the police station.

These two silver dollars, especially the one with the double dragon and the character for longevity, were worth a lot of money during the Republic of China era.

The bandit leader thought Yang Dalin was a fool who had no idea of ​​his worth.

Little did he know that Yang Dalin had switched both silver coins.

Moreover, as soon as he entered the police station, this boss was immediately searched. He didn't even get a clear look at the two silver dollars, nor did he have time to explain their value. He was quickly taken from the bank and betrayed everything, and then he was executed.

Even on his deathbed, he regretted that the two priceless silver coins had been confiscated by the police, who didn't know their value and had no chance to explain.
