These hooligans gathered privately and secretly discussed among themselves. “Did you guys hear? In Yunwu Village on the other side of the mountain, there’s a family who gave birth to triplets. The three of them are brothers. They’re said to be extremely good-looking and look like children from the heavens.”
“I heard… Everyone in the village saw them during their one-month-old celebration. That’s when everyone started to spread how the children from the Guan family are so beautiful,” a hooligan from the same village, Qi Zi, said.
“Triplets. They look exactly the same. Moreover, they’re good-looking.”
“Such children can enter noble families, let alone ordinary rich families or small brothels.”
These hooligans from the city who were on good terms with Lai Han had sinister looks on their faces as they exchanged looks.
These hooligans who specialized in doing bad things and earning a few dollars were the best at playing tricks. They could easily smell money as well.
Lai Han rubbed his hands. “If we can steal the triplets and sell them, it will be a huge sum of money! The few of us can become rich. We can eat and drink well for a few years. We don’t have to look for money anymore!”
“We can do it.” The hooligans from the city revealed excited expressions and leaned even closer. They lowered their voices and said, “I heard that some big families, even the noble ones, love twins and triplets as they find it auspicious. If those triplets in Yunwu Village are really as beautiful as the rumors say, and the three of them are the same, and they’re male, the price would definitely be much higher. They would definitely be expensive.”
The men revealed looks of greed.
“You don’t even have to think about those inferior landlords or brothels. After stealing them, they could be sent to the houses of noble families or even to the capital… I reckon that even officials would buy them.”
“These are three identical boys. They also have outstanding looks. Even if they weren’t bought to replace some women’s biological sons, they could be lowly servants and playthings in noble families. When they grow up, they could be called out to serve people at any banquets with officials. There’s no need to worry about them not being sold.”
“We’re rich, we’re rich!”
“Sure… we can’t let them go.”
This group of men had long lost their conscience. The few poor men in the village were even more excited and anxious than the gangsters from the city. They couldn’t wait any longer and wanted to get up and take action.
“Then let’s do it!”
Lai Han had called them over to discuss this matter. He smiled deeply and discussed the big plan. “I’ve already been to Yunwu Village for a few days. I went to the Guan family’s house, but I didn’t stay long. I left immediately after I passed by, and I didn’t see the children. However, I secretly asked the villagers about the main characters in their Guan family recently. Mother Rong and a few grown-up sons are busy with something. They go out every day before dawn and only return home after dark. They aren’t around for the entire day.”
“There are usually only two people guarding the Guan family. One is the husband of the woman who gave birth to triplets, who is also the father of the triplets. The other is the father of the Guan family. However, it is said that this was not necessarily the case every day. It might be different.”
“Then wouldn’t that be the best time to do things?!” Brother Wei, one of the evilest hooligans from the city, clapped his hands and said with eyes shining.
“That’s right. It’s best that most people from the Guan family are not around lately. Even the heavens are helping us steal their triplets!” Qi Zi said.
“We just need to deal with those two people.” Lai Han said with a dark expression, “As for the people in the village, although there are many people, the villagers are not willing to risk everything to help the other families. We should think of how to scare the villagers first, so no one is willing to take the risk to help the Guan family.”
