Everyone found it strange; the brother and sister had nothing, so why were they searching them?
But the soldiers ignored what they said.
Finally, a soldier came out of the house, clutching something in his hand.
"Found it, let's go back."
The residents craned their necks to look, but they couldn't figure it out.
The search teams disappeared in a flash, leaving behind a mess.
Xida was helped up by the residents, but no matter what they asked, she refused to answer, only shaking her head with tears in her eyes.
After offering some words of comfort, the residents could only return home.
Xida sat in the courtyard, looking up at the bright moon in the sky. Now, what he cared about most was not the ruby, but his brother. He hoped that his brother could come back alive.
The search team, carrying the ruby, hurriedly returned to Uncle In to report back.
But Solo, covered in blood, was thrown to the side of the hall and could not leave until the ruby was found.
"Uncle, the ruby." The adjutant presented the ruby.
Uncle Yin took it, examined it several times, and a look of disappointment appeared on his face.
He thought it was a priceless treasure, but he didn't expect that although the ruby was big, it had too many impurities, the color was not pure enough, not red enough, and even looked very dull.
It wasn't even as good as the worst gem he had ever seen.
It's worth at most a thousand taels.
Uncle Yin shook his head and laughed. After all that trouble, it was just for this one thing.
No wonder Dansuo fought so hard to protect it; a thousand taels would have been enough for the brother and sister to live a good life.
What a poor person considers valuable is completely different from what he considers valuable.
"A waste of time." Uncle Yin casually tossed the ruby to his adjutant: "It's yours."
"Throw the person out."
But when Solo lay on the ground and saw the ruby, he was stunned.
He never expected that the ruby he found would be so different from what he imagined.
Miss Qiao told him to leave it to her, and sure enough, she was very confident.
So, the real gem was saved, but Sochaux closed his eyes and passed out peacefully.
After resting for about half an hour, Dan Suo staggered out of the grass and headed home.
"Brother, brother."
He heard Sida calling him from below.
I quickened my pace and saw my younger sister standing in the night, looking around blankly, her face full of fear.
But So rushed over and hugged her tightly.
"It's alright. Your brother just got a beating. He'll be fine in a few days. They didn't give you any trouble, did they?"
Xida shook her head: "It's good that we're alive, but we don't have any more rubies."
Dansuo smiled and reached out to touch her head: "It's alright. As long as we siblings have food to eat and a place to sleep, we're fine."
This is Uncle Yin's land, and there are people patrolling and watching everywhere, so he can't tell his sister the truth.
The brother and sister were out of danger. After midnight, almost everyone went to sleep, and even the patrolmen were drowsy.
Qiao Lian'er began her operation.
She moved the less valuable rough stones into her spatial storage and worked until late at night. Even with the help of the spatial machinery, she was still exhausted and covered in sweat.
Then, when they arrived at the mine, they placed these stones on the mountain. This was a deceptive tactic to cover their tracks and acquire the mountaintops at a low cost.
