Some might wonder, it's just a swinging stick, why would the officials bother with that.
Truthfully, their thoughts weren't wrong, such a trivial matter like the swinging stick wasn't even reported. The soldiers who came didn't even care that the The Dong family possessed such a thing, after all, whether ordinary people have such a weapon or not, it didn't pose a threat to them.
But the swinging stick certainly had a strong deterrence effect on the ordinary street workers. Even though the Dong family has always followed orders, they felt more secured having the weapon in their own hands.
Dong Tianyu also didn't expect that a self-defense weapon worth only a few hundred yuan, prepared for his family, would incite so much attention.
However, Dong Tianyu forgot that even before the calamity, regular people rarely purchased self-defense weapons. Regardless of the quality of a swinging stick, ultimately it's just a metal rod.
