America 1881: Legend of the West

Although it is located on the Upper East Side, the New York State Governor's mansion is very simple. '

It is so simple that this small house can be clearly seen among the surrounding mansions.

Astor took Chen Jianqiu and knocked on Governor Cleveland's door.

The governor himself opened the door and let the three men in.

In the living room, there was another person standing.

"Mr. Governor, are you talking about them?" The man looked up at Chen Jianqiu and the others and asked.

"Yes, he saved my life a few days ago." Cleveland took out handkerchiefs from his pocket and wiped his nose.

He still had that serious look on his face.

"He's a Chinese! Border Detective Agency? They only have some reputation in the western states." The man spread his hands together, hunched his shoulders and pointed at Chen Jianqiu and the others.

"Then do you have a better idea? Fred?" Cleveland raised his eyebrows and glanced at the man.

"We can appoint Pinkerton Detective Agency, they are well-known in the industry." Fred said.

"If Pinkerton had worked, Lincoln wouldn't have died." Cleveland said angrily, "If you don't want me to die suddenly before the election, you can try."

"Sorry, let me interrupt. Do you want to investigate the case?"

Chen Jianqiu interrupted.

Whether Cleveland is governor or future president, they are all his potential customers now.

"If you want to investigate the case, why not let people from the New York Police Department do it? As far as I know, their police force is not small enough to only maintain law and order." Chen Jianqiu took over the governor's words.

He knew only too well what a bunch of pissy cops in the New York City Police Department were.

Apart from collecting money, all of them spend their free time wandering around.

If it weren't for that skin, walking on the street would be just like an ordinary streetwalker.

"The man who assassinated the governor is dead," Fred said.

Chen Jianqiu and the other two looked at each other.

"How did you die?" Chen Jianqiu asked.

"During the transfer, he was shot to death by a drunken homeless man who rushed out from the corner."

"Where's the homeless guy?"

"He was caught, but this person is a drunkard and a lunatic. His words don't match his words, and he can't ask anything." Fred said.

The three people looked at each other.

This is nonsense.

Not to mention where a homeless man got a gun, he was so crazy and drunk that he could shoot a suspect to death.

The people at the police station were so outrageous that they just watched their suspect being beaten to death.

No novel would dare to be written like this.

"I think we should expand this matter so you're safe," Fred said to Cleveland.

The governor was silent.

"If we get to the bottom of this matter, it will be a devastating blow to the Republican Party." Fred pounded the table and looked at Chen Jianqiu,

"But what if it wasn't the Republicans who did it?"

Chen Jianqiu suddenly said something.

There was deathly silence in the living room. Of course, everyone understood what Chen Jianqiu meant.

The governor and Fred also took another look at the Chinese man in front of them.

"No one should mention this matter before the election." Cleveland convinced himself and made his decision.

It's hard.

A governor was nearly shot during a public speech.

Things like this actually have to be handled in a low-key manner.

It was hard for him to imagine how malicious those who opposed him in the party would be to kill a governor like himself.

"Since there's nothing else to do, let's take our leave."

Chen Jianqiu said goodbye and turned around to leave.

However, Fred's voice came from behind:

"Mr. Chen! Please stay!"

"Is there anything else?" Chen Jianqiu turned around and asked.

"Although we will not touch him on this matter for the time being, it does not mean that we will forget it. Before that, I hope to hire you to protect the governor's safety." Fred extended his hand to Chen Jianqiu.

Chen Jianqiu did not pay attention to Fred, but turned to Cleveland.

"What do you mean, Governor?"

He is used to talking to people who have the final say. As for people who are biased against himself and the Border Detective Agency, he does not need to explain.

Because facts and time will tell everything.

"As much as I hate to admit it, it seems like I have no other choice."

Unlike other politicians, Cleveland's answer was straightforward and he did not hide his thoughts at all.

"I'm impressed by the skills of you and your partner."

He said to Chen Jianqiu.

"Mr. Astor recommended you to me after the attack on the Plaza. He said you saved a Mexican bandit from his clutches."

The governor briefly recounted how Astor described to him how Chen Jianqiu had rescued him from Hernandez.

There are Indians, there are gun battles, it's very much like a western movie.

Chen Jianqiu felt that his memory seemed to be a bit misplaced.

It is true that he saved Astor, but his original purpose seemed to be just to make a fortune.

Not only did this thing not mention a word, it actually beautified him a lot and added a lot of settings to him.

He glanced at Astor again, and found a confused smile on his face, with an expression of admiration.

It seems that distance can indeed produce beauty.

Stockholm Syndrome gradually developed during the time when Astor returned to the east.

This guy is seriously ill.

"Well, yes, Mr. Astor is right."

Chen Jianqiu is very thick-skinned, and he calmly accepted his setting as a frontier hero.

"Border Detective Agency will serve you sincerely. Our detectives are all selected from a hundred, and our employees are all experienced and have many years of experience in fighting wits and courage with gangsters and assassins."

He began pitching his business, just as he had pitched Scott.

"Okay, okay, I generally understand." Cleveland felt that if he continued to let this person talk, he was afraid that his subsequent trips would be ruined.

He turned to Fred and said: "Go back and sign the contract with Mr. Chen. The fee does not go to the state government. I will pay the money privately."

"Mr. Governor, I can pay for this." Astor came up and said.

"Yes, Cleveland, there are security expenses in the campaign funds." Fred replied, "Please provide me with an offer as soon as possible."

As director of the Cleveland campaign office, Fred knew that such an attack could not happen again. ,

Ruben Mendy, a well-known New York barrister and Mr. Dylan’s senior brother.

Chen Jianqiu found Dylan with his letter and hired him as the legal advisor of the International Gunpowder Association.

He never expected that the first contract he drafted for Chen Jianqiu would turn out to be a security agreement.

Chen Jianqiu happily broke into his office at the law firm.

He walked around the barrister's desk describing his thoughts.

Mendy took out his beautiful notebook and recorded some important information.

For example, some security personnel are allowed to wear the uniforms of the Border Detective Agency, and their logos are allowed to be exposed, etc.

The Border Detective Agency provides full-time security services to Mr. Governor. All matters will be carried out with his permission and will never infringe on his personal privacy.

The contract price was moderate, neither too high nor too low.

In Chen Jianqiu's words, it doesn't matter whether this contract makes money or not. What matters is that the governor gets used to having an additional border detective agency in his world.

When he came to New York, he had no intention of building a branch of the Border Detective Agency here.

Because his main front is still on the southwest border, which is too far away to cover.

But now that the opportunity has come, he can't let him miss it.

Behind the stone lion of the International Gunpowder Association, there is another sign.

Holiday, on the other hand, was temporarily left in New York by Chen Jianqiu.

He still trusted the doctor's ability. At least, no one could touch a hair on Cleveland's face under his eyes.

After all this work, Chen Jianqiu was ready to leave for Roswell.

Firstly, he has to go back to mobilize his troops, and secondly, he has to prepare for the New Year.
