Chapter 152: Unexpected Fortune, Old Lady Wan is Disgusted
When Wan Laoer opened the bag, he saw that it was full of golden beans, filling half the bag.
Wan Lao Er quickly handed it to Wan Lao Da and Wan Lao San and said, "Big brother, Third brother, look, this fell from a horse bandit. These horse bandits are really rich. Hurry up and search other horse bandits to see if they have valuables on them."
Boss Wan's arm was still bleeding, but at this moment he was filled with excitement. With the Golden Axe Gang outside, there was definitely no danger, so they could search the bodies of these horse bandits with peace of mind.
The four brothers of the Wan family immediately searched the dozen or so bandits in the room one by one.
As a result, they found some gold and silver on the eight bandits, and even some silver notes. Although there was only one hundred taels, it was enough for Boss Wan and his men to live on for a lifetime, not to mention that the gold and silver added up to more than one hundred taels.
"Brother, second brother, we are rich now. This shop has not even opened yet, but we have already recovered all the capital, and there is still some left. It seems that this shop is really a good place."
At this time, Wan Laosan was holding a piece of gold in his mouth and biting it. He held the gold excitedly and looked at it again and again, unwilling to let go.
Although Wan Laoer was also happy, he was not like Wan Laosan. When he saw Wan Laosan, he thought of himself when he first picked up the gold bracelet.
"It's better to take less of this kind of windfall. This is life-threatening money. Didn't you see that big brother's hand is still bleeding? We have to send big brother to see a doctor quickly."
Wan Laoer still had a trace of rationality and immediately drew everyone's attention back.
Boss Wan shook his head. Apart from his pale face, he did not feel any other discomfort. He sat down against the wall and said, "I'm fine. I can bandage myself in a while. You guys go and see what's going on outside. I hear the noise outside is much quieter. Have all the horse bandits been killed by the Golden Axe Gang?"
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao San both poked their heads to the door of the shop, leaned on the door frame to peek outside, and found that some people on the street had already started to open doors.
Wan Lao Er finally breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, he heard someone walking around with a gong, banging it, and shouting, "Dear bosses, the horse bandits have been eliminated by the Golden Axe Gang. However, in order to prevent any fish from slipping through the net, everyone should quickly close the doors and windows. It is best to stay indoors. If you find horse bandits, immediately shout for help."
Hearing the sound of gongs and drums, Wan Laoer and Wan Laosan finally felt relieved and they leaned against the door frame and lay on the ground.
"Brother, it's okay. All the bandits have been eliminated. The Golden Axe Gang is cleaning up their bodies. Hurry up and notify mother and them to come out."
By this time, it was already getting dark, and the door of the Wan family's shop had been kicked in by the bandits. If they wanted to rest in the shop at night, Wan Laosan had to quickly repair the door.
At this time, Old Mrs. Wan and other female members of the Wan family in the backyard were all worried. They could not hear clearly what was happening in the front and could only pace back and forth anxiously in the house.
Wan Ersao was terrified as she held little Fubao in her arms.
"Mom, tell me, if it weren't for little Fubao's indigestion that delayed us today, wouldn't we have run into the bandits? That would have been life-threatening."
Old Mrs. Wan also looked at Xiao Fubao, patting his chest and gasping for breath.
"This time, grandma's good baby saved the lives of the whole family again."
Wan Quan paced around the room anxiously.
"Grandma, my dad and some uncles are still outside. I don't know what's going on with them right now."
Wanquan has lost his mother, and if he also loses his father, then the three brothers will become orphans.
Old Mrs. Wan had no choice. If she didn't leave her sons behind, her entire family would probably be wiped out. Who knew there were still bandits roaming around in this town?
"Go to the back door and take a look. What's going on outside? Have the bandits left?"
Wan Quan quickly responded and ran out quickly.
Just then, Boss Wan and his men were knocking on the door.
"Mom, open the door. All the bandits have been killed. We are safe now."
Wan Quan was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately started moving things, while constantly shouting to the people in the wing room: "Grandma, Auntie, the horse bandits have been killed, we are safe, my father is calling us out."
The people in the room heard it clearly and ran out in a group.
"Quan'er, is what you said true? The horse bandit was killed? He was a horse bandit. How could anyone be so powerful?"
Old Mrs. Wan had a deep impression of the horse bandits. She had witnessed with her own eyes the brutal methods used by those bandits. They killed people without blinking an eye, raped women and robbed children. In their eyes, humans were their prey.
"I don't know. My father said that all the bandits were killed. Let's go out and take a look."
Wan Quan said this without stopping his hands.
Mrs. Wan Er put Xiao Fubao on the ground, and she and Mrs. Wan San hurried to help. Soon, several people moved away all the tables, chairs and stools that were originally used to block the door.
As soon as the door opened, Wan Laoer and his men rushed in.
"Boss, are you all okay?" Wan Ersao grabbed Wan Laoer and looked him up and down. She was relieved to see that Wan Laoer was not injured.
Wan Lao Er chuckled and said, "Wife, I'm fine. It's just that my eldest brother is injured. There's a long knife wound from the back of his hand to his arm."
Old Mrs. Wan walked out quickly on her bound feet and saw that the originally tidy lobby was now littered with corpses and the tables, chairs and benches had all been chopped to pieces.
"Oh my God, these damn beasts, what's wrong with these tables and chairs? Why don't they even let these dead things go? How cruel are these horse bandits?"
Old Mrs. Wan was heartbroken. They were about to open the business, but now it was ruined. They had to spend money to repair the tables and chairs, and the opening would be postponed. The loss of everything inside and outside the business would cost several taels of silver.
At this time, Wan Laoer took out a bag from his pocket and handed it to Wan Laotai.
"Mom, look, what is this?"
The brothers stuffed all the things they had collected into the big bag containing the golden beans. The bag was full, bulging and heavy.
Old Mrs. Wan took it doubtfully, and almost dropped it on the ground.
"What is this? Why is it so heavy?"
Old Mrs. Wan quickly opened the bag and took a look inside. This glance almost made her scream out in surprise.
She quickly looked around and found that there was no one at the door of the store, so she immediately took a group of people to the room in the backyard.
"Second brother, where did this come from? We are not thieves."
Old Mrs. Wan thought that Old Man Wan was taking advantage of the chaos to steal other people's things, so she immediately taught him a lesson.
"Mom, these are from the bandits, so they can't be considered stolen, right? They are all dead, and this money can't be taken with you. If we don't pick it up, it won't let others get it for free, right?"
When Old Mrs. Wan heard this, she immediately felt better and smiled with wrinkles all over her face.
"If the bandit has as much as he wants, we'll take it. He robs people all day long, but he never thought he'd be robbed by us before he died. It's really gratifying. With this money, we can buy ready-made things for our shop, and open it on the 18th. We can't keep this ill-gotten gains, we have to spend it quickly. We can use the rest to buy shops and houses. Otherwise, I'd think it would be unlucky to keep it in my hands. I don't know how many wronged souls are stained with it."
As Old Lady Wan spoke, her expression changed from joy to sadness, and her voice was thick with anger.
Then Old Lady Wan looked at Boss Wan who was sitting opposite her, and saw a shocking trail of blood dripping down.
"Second brother, third brother, take your eldest brother to see a doctor immediately and use the best medicine. We have the money."
Old Mrs. Wan directly took out a two-liang silver ingot from the purse in her arms and handed it to Old Second Wan.
"This is the ill-gotten gains of the horse bandits. The boss was also injured by the horse bandits. It's just right to use this money to see a doctor. Don't be reluctant to part with this money. This money is not clean and is stained with the aura of a dead person."
Wan Laoer was so scared that he didn't dare to take it. Wan Er's wife glanced at him, and Wan Laoer quickly took it. He and Wan Laosan supported Wan Laoda and walked to the largest clinic in the town.
