Chapter 74: Tomorrow's Big Dry Ticket

this pork It smells so good."A seven or eight-year-old boy, with his mouth full of greasy food, opened his bright, glistening eyes and asked excitedly."Yes, that's pork. My father used to eat it all t...In the evening, at Yang's house, dozens of oil lamps were lit, illuminating the room as brightly as day.

The courtyard is packed with people!

Yang Lin sat on the edge of the bed, his hands covered in blood, and slowly closed his eyes.

Just now, he has sutured the wounds of four severely injured people, including Liu Qiao Yun.

They were severely injured, but none of their vital areas were hit. Even so, without suturing, they would all bleed out and die!

Even if they are sewn up now, whether or not they can survive is only up to fate!

"My husband, please wash your hands."

"Wumei came over with a basin of warm water and looked at Yanglin with concern."

Yang Lin nodded slowly, gently cleaning the blood from his hands.

The blood was washed away, the clear water in the basin turned red in an instant, but it couldn't wash away Yang Lin's anger!

In this battle, including Heihu, nine bandits were killed and three were seriously injured. The rest were all beaten up and captured alive, tied to trees outside.

While over at Yāo Shān Village, Yang Lin and his women were unharmed. In the final moments, the women, armed with bows and crossbows, charged forward just as the remaining bandits had been dealt with by the villagers.

But before that, in the road repair team, two people were slightly injured, one was seriously injured, and one died!

Our team here, two wounded seriously, one dead!

Yang Lin had already removed the arrow from Zhong Tao's shoulder and bandaged his wound. This iron tower of a man now stood outside the door, his eyes red with tears.

Having taken the towel from Liu Mei and wiped his hands dry, Yang Lin asked in a low voice, "Is Liu Qiao Yun's mother still outside"

Si Me nodded: "Everyone is here."

Yang Lin knew that what Si Mei said "everyone" included the family members of the other injured people.

"Well, I'll go talk to them."

Yang Ling just stood up, his body swayed slightly, almost falling down. Wu Mei and Liu Mei hurriedly supported him.

"Are you alright Or should I go tell them" Li Yuyao stepped forward, her face full of worry.

It's obvious that Yang Lin is in a bad state right now.

Whether it was Liu Qiao Yun shielding him with her body, now unconscious, or his first-hand experience of loved ones' deaths since arriving in this world, all these would plunge him into extreme pain both mentally and physically.

"It's okay, I got it!"

Four simple words, yet they conveyed his determination to everyone.

Li Yuyao then stopped insisting and gave Wumei and Liu Mei a wink, signaling for the two to help Yang Lin up.

As he pushed open the door, hundreds of eyes, both inside and outside the courtyard, were fixed on him.

Nearly everyone in the whole village had gathered here, yet there was a strange silence.

Zhao Fuguang and Zhong Tao stood on both sides of the door, opened their mouths but said nothing.

The villagers watched Yang Lin with worry, their hearts growing heavier at the sight of his haggard and pale face.

"Qiao Yun, Qiao Yun, how is she doing"

Liu Zhang cried out and rushed over, supported by two maidservants.

Several other seriously injured patients' families, although they haven't spoken yet, their faces, whether aged or young, all looked at Yang Lin blankly, with worry in their eyes.

"The bleeding has stopped."

But whether I can survive this, I'm not yet sure.

Yang Lin spoke truthfully, bowing deeply to the villagers before him. "To make it easier to care for them, they'll stay with me temporarily. I will take full responsibility for all their medical expenses and future needs!"

Liu Zhangshi wanted to cry again, Wang Gui held his younger brother Wang Lao San and walked over.

"Rest assured, everyone. Yang Lin is a very skilled doctor. Look at my brother, he was also stabbed and unconscious back then. Anyone would have said there was no hope, but Yang Lin saved him!"

Wang Laosan knelt weakly before Yang Lin.

"Yang Lin, I, Wang Laosan, owe my life to you. From now on, whether it's scaling Mount Qilian or plunging into the boiling sea, as long as you give the order, I, Wang Laosan, will not even frown."

Saying that, he kowtowed to Yang Lin repeatedly.

He had just woken up when his brother dragged him over.

Wang Gui just wanted to show everyone, in front of everyone, his younger brother's recovery progress and give everyone a reassurance.

This move really worked. Liu Zhangshi and the families of the other several seriously injured people, seeing Wang Laosan, all unconsciously let out a sigh of relief.

As everyone knows, Wang Laosan was also seriously injured that night, but he was rescued by Yang Lin. This gave them confidence in Yang Lin's medical skills.

"Take good care of your injuries. When you're healed, I'll get you out of here. Then you can come work for me."

Yang Lin helped Wang Laosan up and gestured for Wang Gui to take him away first.

Seeing Yang Lin seemed to have something to say to everyone, Wang Gui didn't dare to neglect him. He hurriedly helped Wang Lao San and retreated to the back.

"Fellow countrymen, I know that today, everyone faced the bandits' swords to protect me and did not betray my whereabouts. Yang Lin is very grateful!"

Saying that, Yang Lin bowed deeply again.

"Although I don't think I've done anything extraordinary, to be treated with such respect by everyone, Yang Lin feels incredibly fortunate in three lifetimes!"

I won't say flattering words. I, Yang Lin, have always been a person who repays kindness with kindness and grievances with grievances!

"Today, everyone has been so kind to me. Yang Lin will never forget this!"

"The bandits' hatred towards us cannot just be let go like this!"

Saying that, Yang Lin shouted loudly: "Zhang Laozi from the road construction team and Zhou Li from the guard team were killed by bandits! They died for me, Yang Lin, to protect our Mazhan Village. They are heroes!"

I will give them a grand funeral. From now on, I will take care of all their family members!

"When the Guard was first established, I said that if any brother unfortunately met his demise, I would offer thirty taels of silver as compensation!"

But today, I'm going to break with precedent! Mr. Zhang and Zhou Li died for Gaoshan Village; they died heroically! Therefore, I have decided that each of their families will receive a pension of one hundred taels of silver!

"Tonight, I will ensure they have a glorious burial!"

Saying that, Yang Lin once again bowed to the crowd for the third time.

One hundred taels of silver for condolence, which shocked the villagers.

In this era, human life is as cheap as grass.

Don't even talk about a hundred taels, even thirty taels is beyond their wildest dreams.

Spending ten ounces of silver can get someone to sell their life, even in the army, where a pension is only eight pennies and often deducted, barely enough.

Therefore, although the villagers were all very distressed at this moment, hearing that there was one hundred taels of silver, many people felt that their deaths were worth it!

But for Yang Lin, no amount of money could ever equate to a human life.

Increasing the pension is only what he can do, and it won't make him feel better just because he gave more money.

"Uncle Three, are you sure that this band of bandits is backed by the Zhou family and the Zhao family"

Zhao Fuguai nodded heavily: “Confirmed! In the county town, this is almost an open secret.”

"Well then," Yang Lin nodded, "Tomorrow I'm going all in, Uncle Three, you dare to join me"business. Once everyone arrives, you can line up and retrieve your deeds! The harvest from this season's fields belongs to you all!""Let me say another thing."Yang Lin stretched out two fingers and sh...
