Siheyuan: The romantic and suave Xu Damao

As the wooden box slowly opened, there were no dangerous items inside as Xu Damao had imagined. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked inside the box, only to see some clothes neatly stacked inside.

Xu Damao used a shovel to push the clothes to the ground, and the things underneath appeared in front of him. They were rows of golden gold bars and silver dollars, totaling about twenty or so. Among them, there were two large yellow croakers and more than twenty small yellow croakers. He took a quick look and estimated that there were about dozens of silver dollars.

On the other side, there were five heavy old silver ingots. The largest one weighed fifty taels, and the smallest weighed about ten taels. These silver ingots shone with a faint light, as if telling of their former glory.

There was a piece of paper under the silver ingot. Xu Damao took it out and saw that it was a land deed! He was secretly delighted: "Haha, what a pleasant surprise! Now even this house belongs to me."

However, looking at the few gold bars in his hand, Xu Damao couldn't help but mutter to himself: "Is this guy only able to embezzle this little bit in all these years?" He felt a little disappointed, as he had thought there would be more treasures.

Xu Damao was cautious and alert, and slowly opened the cabinet. Inside were several scrolls of calligraphy and paintings and some antiques, mostly inkstones, seals and other items. He did not look at these things carefully, but put them all into his personal space without hesitation.

Looking around, he could see everything in the room, and he could not find any place to hide the treasure. Xu Damao decided to leave the main room and go to the side room to continue searching. He was looking forward to finding more treasures there, after all, the previous harvest was really unsatisfactory. With a hint of expectation and excitement, he stepped out of the main room and walked towards the side room...

The scene inside the side room made Xu Damao extremely disappointed. There were only some ordinary daily necessities inside, and no trace of any antiques or gold bars.

"This guy is honest and didn't deceive me. In that case, let's spare his life for now!" Xu Damao muttered softly as he got on his bicycle and sped towards the place where the donkey cart was robbed before.

After arriving at the destination, Xu Damao followed the route provided by the middle-aged man and sped up without hesitation. Because he chose a wide road, his bicycle speed was as fast as lightning, almost reaching more than 40 kilometers per hour.

At this speed, even if we want to reach the Tianjin Port mentioned by the middle-aged man, it will probably take about four hours.

"Forget it, just think of it as going there to have some fun. Anyway, I've already taken a day off tomorrow, so I don't have to go to work."

Thinking of this, Xu Damao felt a little relieved.

Relying on his amazing physical strength and endurance, and the fact that it was a pitch-black night and there were basically no pedestrians on the road, Xu Damao sped all the way without stopping, and arrived directly at the Tianjin Port mentioned by the middle-aged man.

He put the bike into the carry-on space and walked inside.

When Xu Damao's figure suddenly appeared in the cabin in the space, he only saw the middle-aged man sleeping soundly on the bed, and there were leftover roast chicken and sesame cakes on the table.

"Hey! Wake up!" Xu Damao shouted loudly.

"Hey, little brother, you are finally back! How long has it been? Did you find the gold bars and dollars in that place as I told you?"

The middle-aged man jumped up from the bed like a frightened rabbit, looked at Xu Damao expectantly, and kept asking a series of questions.

Xu Damao glanced at him and said slowly, "Humph, you are quite honest. I did go to the place you mentioned, but there are too few gold bars! You are responsible for collecting these things, and you only keep these few gold bars for yourself?"

He deliberately pulled his face into a long expression, showing an extremely dissatisfied look.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly explained with a smile: "Hey, brother, this amount of gold bars is really not a small amount! Think about it, even if I want to keep it all for myself, I have to use some benefits to shut up those people below, right? Only in this way, they will turn a deaf ear to this matter and turn a blind eye!"

Xu Damao snorted coldly and didn't buy it. The middle-aged man was anxious and said hurriedly: "Young man, oh no, this young master, please be kind and let me live! As long as you can let me go back to Taiwan Island and let me reunite with my family, you can let me do anything!"

The middle-aged man had a sad face, full of grievance and helplessness, just like a bullied young wife, begging bitterly to Xu Damao.

"Listen carefully, I'm telling you, I'm also a gangster, and I'm a well-known one. You're quite sensible and cooperative, so I'm going to let you go."

Xu Damao said these words expressionlessly, as if he didn't take the middle-aged man seriously.

"Thank you so much, sir! You are like a second parent to me!"

When the middle-aged man heard that he could survive, his originally listless look instantly became energetic, as if he had been injected with an injection of stimulant. At this time, he felt that the voice coming out of Xu Damao's mouth was like the sound of nature.

Then, the middle-aged man knelt down on the ground without hesitation, and kowtowed to Xu Damao to express his gratitude. His grateful and devoted look was so touching that everyone could not help but feel moved.

"Okay! Stop pretending! The boat you just said is here to pick you up. Is it waiting for you at the beach?"

Xu Damao interrupted him impatiently.

"Yes, yes, the boat that will pick me up is waiting at the seaside. According to the original plan, we will arrive here around the morning. After loading the things on the boat, I can get on the boat and leave by myself." The middle-aged man nodded and answered flatteringly.

"So, what else do you know about those Kuomintang spies in the capital?" Xu Damao continued to ask, with a hint of majesty and urgency in his tone.

"I really don't know about this. These few of my men were brought out this time by me using chicken feathers as a token of authority, and they were coaxed and deceived by me..." The middle-aged man explained with an innocent look on his face, as if he wanted to distance himself from the Kuomintang spies.

Xu Damao looked at him with some disdain in his heart, but still decided to believe him for once.

"Okay, then I can pull you to the seaside and you can get on the boat by yourself!" Xu Damao ordered in an unquestionable commanding tone.
