America 1881: Legend of the West

The New Mexico gubernatorial election ended with the election of Gardner, a political novice, and the victory of the Democratic Party.

However, Scott, as the leader of the Republican Party, has no intention of giving up.

He is already discussing with the fat congressman how to create obstacles for the new governor and the new state government.

For example, digging holes in the budget.

For another example, before the current governor leaves office, he starts to make some small moves.

Scott is ready for his next comeback.

After all, the House of Representatives is still controlled by Republicans.

So what if a Democratic governor can take office? See if he can pass a bill!

As the victors, Harlem and his Democrats would not let him get his wish easily.

As a result, the atmosphere in the parliament changed from the previous peaceful negotiation atmosphere and began endless quarrels.

The real headache for Scott is to deal with the "traitor" Chen Jianqiu.

This election made him fully aware that the outlaw who fled to New Mexico in the past was no longer what he used to be.

So, he called the fat congressman to his office.

"Ah? Is it really going to be so big?" The fat congressman was a little unsure after hearing Scott's plan.

"I'm afraid there is no other choice. If he doesn't die, we will die." The old man said in a low voice, "If you don't want your fat body to be used by him to light sky lanterns."

The fat congressman trembled violently.

He subconsciously touched his round belly.

Half a month after the election, the Roswell Gun Factory.

A galloping horse stopped at the gate of the factory, and the Indian bird turned over and jumped off the horse.

He hurriedly walked into the workshop door.

"Boss! Boss!"

Feiniao anxiously looked for Chen Jianqiu and finally found him in a corner of the workshop.

Chen Jianqiu was discussing technical details with the technical workers in the workshop.

He had just turned a gun barrel with his own hands on a lathe in a steam cave.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Chen Jianqiu took off his work clothes and looked at Feiniao.

"Something happened to Luo Yonggui." Feiniao glanced at the workshop behind him and lowered his voice and said to him, "He was arrested in Albuquerque."

Luo Yonggui was one of the many Chinese railway workers rescued by Chen Jianqiu in Albuquerque.

He first followed Chen Jianqiu back to Roswell.

After learning English for a period of time, he was sent back to Albuquerque to lead workers at the train station to do some maintenance work.

This person has leadership skills, good character, courage and knowledge, and no bad hobbies.

Chen Jianqiu planned to let him practice at the train station for a period of time before assigning him to another job.

Why were you suddenly arrested?

"Because of what?" Chen Jianqiu asked.

"He took the Chinese workers and had a fight with a group of white-skinned workers at the train station. The police came and arrested both sides." Feiniao replied.

fight? conflict? Police arrest someone?

Chen Jianqiu recalled what happened in Denver and California for no reason.

Why do these tricks sound so familiar?

He took out the exquisite pocket watch and glanced at the time on it.

"You can still catch the train to Albuquerque today, let's go!"

The two of them quickly walked out of the factory

Ten hours later, Chen Jianqiu walked into the Albuquerque police station with his lawyer and several detectives from the Border Detective Agency.

Several police officers who were bragging and chatting saw him and came over to greet him.

They all knew the Santa Fe Railroad chairman.

To put it bluntly, some of their bonuses were sponsored by Boss Chen.

After Davis became mayor of Albuquerque, the police department's budget was often short of budget and wages fluctuated.

"Where's the Sheriff?" Chen Jianqiu glanced at them.

The police officers looked at each other and hesitated to explain.

Chen Jianqiu walked straight inside.

"Hey, Boss Chen! Boss Chen!" The police officers outside could not stop him and could only follow closely behind.

A group of people arrived at a room with a sign that read "Sheriff's Office."

Something wasn't right about the movement inside.

There are people, more than one.

The police officer saw that the detective beside Chen Jianqiu was about to make a move, and he coughed quickly:

"Sir! Boss Chen is here!"

He raised his voice and shouted outside the door, fearing that Chen Jianqiu or the detectives around him would kick the door.

As we all know, this boss Chen has little patience.

There was a rustling sound in the room.

It didn't take long for the door to open.

A woman with heavy makeup and disheveled clothes walked out of the room.

Behind her, the Sheriff was holding up his pants.

Seeing the expressionless Chen Jianqiu at the door, a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Where are my people?" Chen Jianqiu asked straight to the point.

"Uh, I'm in the back, please follow me!"

While fastening his belt, the sergeant led Chen Jianqiu towards the detention cell of the police station.

There was no one in the Albuquerque Police Department holding cell.

This is not because the security here is good, but because the Sheriff and his subordinates are not very diligent.

The sergeant brought Chen Jianqiu and the others to the door of a small cell.

Luo Yonggui and several Chinese workers were squatting in the corner of the room, digging at the mud on the floor.

"All your people are here." The police chief pointed at Luo Yonggui and the others.

Chen Jianqiu pursed his lips at the lawyer behind him.

The lawyer took out a piece of paper and handed it to the police chief.

"The bail has been paid, can we take him away?"

The Sheriff said with a smile: "Okay, okay."

Chen Jianqiu ignored him and looked around the cell.

"Where are the white guys he was fighting with?" he asked, turning his head and staring into the Sheriff's eyes.

The sergeant seemed to be stabbed with a sharp sword, his eyes evasive:

"Then, what, this" the police chief hesitated.

"My people fought and affected the public order. I didn't say anything when I was caught; but I hope the police chief can treat them equally and take other people who committed crimes into custody to await their trial in court."

Chen Jianqiu said calmly.

"Boss Chen, don't make things difficult for me. You should also know who means it." The police chief almost said Davis' name.

Chen Jianqiu glanced at the empty cell behind him, and then continued to look at the police chief:

"That's not something I, a citizen, want to know."

He pointed to the cell and said in a harsh tone:

"In three hours, I hope to see those who committed the crime appear in this cell!"

"If you would, then on behalf of the residents of Albuquerque, I would like to thank you for your contribution to policing the city, but..."

Chen Jianqiu paused, and then said word by word:

"If you don't want to, then my detectives and I will go out and deal with these people."

"I guarantee, Mr. Sheriff, you will be prosecuted for malfeasance in office. I will use all my media resources to make you infamous."

Sweat dripped from the Sheriff's forehead.

He knew that the man in front of him always kept his word and never broke his promise.

"You, you and you!" The police chief returned to his office, picked up his gun, and greeted all the police officers outside, "Follow me and go and catch those bastards now!"

Luo Yonggui and several Chinese workers followed Chen Jianqiu out of the police station.

Several people did not dare to speak along the way.

Until they arrived at Chen Jianqiu's office at the Santa Fe Railway Company.

Chen Jianqiu waved to the lawyers and detectives, telling them to go out first, leaving only Luo Yonggui and a few Chinese workers in the office.

"Mr. Chen, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble."

Luo Yonggui said with some embarrassment.

He pulled the sleeve of a Chinese worker next to him and motioned for them to apologize to Chen Jianqiu together.

However, Chen Jianqiu walked up to them with a smile.

He stretched out his hand to straighten Luo Yonggui's wrinkled clothes, and then patted him on the shoulder:

"Just fight, what are you apologizing for? Did you win?"

Luo Yonggui and several Chinese workers were a little stunned.

Luo Yonggui reacted the fastest, nodding repeatedly: "We won! We won! We have more people than them, and those people are here to provoke us at first sight."

Chen Jianqiu nodded:

"That's good."

His eyes swept across the Chinese workers standing in a row and said to them:

"Remember, if anyone dares to provoke you again in the future, give me a severe beating. I will pay for the medical and legal fees after the beating!"

"Pay attention to strategy and team fighting. Don't suffer losses. Just win. Those who lose will go to Lincoln County to feed pigs!"

"Do you understand?"

"Understood! Mr. Chen!"

"louder!"

"Understood!"

The lawyers and detectives who were on the first floor suddenly heard a deafening sound coming from the second floor, and they all turned to look towards the second floor.

And in the office on the second floor,

Those Chinese workers have already puffed up their chests.
