Red Dead Redemption Dawn
Chapter 65: fellow
The four returned to the temporary residence. Evans saw that his uncle's family of three was very happy, and hurried over to give them a hug.
But he didn't know the old man William standing beside him.
"Evans, this is your grandfather." Aunt took Evans' hand and introduced William.
William looked up and down the child, who looked like his daughter.
Is this his grandson? His daughter's son? It looks like. William stood for a while not knowing how to speak.
"Grandpa?" Evans was not afraid of life, but looked at William and asked suspiciously.
"Yes, I'm your grandfather." William stepped forward and gave Evans a hug.
"I'm sorry to only come to you now."
"Although you don't want to break this warm scene, I think we should leave here first. The number of looters in Lemoyne exceeds a hundred." John checked the time, it was four o'clock in the morning.
A few people earlier agreed to take the morning train to leave here.
The looter's boss Andy knows where John is from, so the train to Blackwater may be stopped by them, so John's suggestion is to go to Saint Denis first and then take a cruise back to Blackwater.
Evans' uncle's family only brought some things that they thought were important, and William's promised compensation from Blackwater far exceeded the value of their original small ranch.
With the threat of those robbers, the family of three left without much hesitation.
At five in the morning, a group of nine people arrived at the station. Waiting for the six o'clock train to Saint Denis.
John took the woman to the clinic in the town.
The doctor is an old man who looks experienced.
"She is in very poor condition. There are other reasons for her fever. This town may not be able to cope with this patient. She needs better medicines and medical facilities." The doctor touched her forehead and made some careful examinations. Speaking of.
"Did your wife meet something in the jungle? A robber?" the doctor asked, looking at the woman's leg cut by thorns.
John shook his head without answering.
"I'll give you some medicine to stabilize your condition, and then deal with these wounds. Take your wife to the hospital in Saint Denis. The conditions here cannot save her." The doctor took some medicine from the medicine cabinet and poured it into the woman, and then again Give John a bottle of potion.
"Give her a drink on the way, and you won't need it when you get to the hospital."
"Yeah." John nodded.
The doctor then began to treat the various wounds on the woman's body.
After finishing everything, John was a little embarrassed to hold this woman. He didn't know who she was, and there seemed to be no rich girls who were kidnapped or lost nearby.
John came out of the clinic with the woman on his back and rushed towards the station.
The time to return to the station was just right.
The train has just arrived.
John asked the conductor for a restroom on the grounds that his wife was seriously ill.
Things are going well with money.
After the woman was put away, she was temporarily taken care of by Evans' aunt.
And John sat beside William.
"Are you telling the truth?" John said, looking at William.
"What?" William was a little puzzled.
"Twenty thousand dollars, two hotels in Saint Denis, income and so on." John's money is no less than Andy's.
"Of course it's fake, how can it be that simple, just dealing with various procedures for opening a store is very troublesome, and there are so-called suitable people, you have to hire a lawyer, two hotel managers, and an accountant, and also There are greetings to the local gang, and the police chief in that area. There are many things to deal with, big and small, as well as various personal relationships. If the business can be done with a little money, it will not be called a business. " William said with a smile.
"Well, that's it." That's really difficult, John nodded and thought about it.
"What's the matter, John, do you also want to invest in something?" William asked John with a thoughtful look.
"Well, I have some money in my hand but I don't know what to do." John nodded. He had a lot of money, but he didn't know how to spend it.
"Tell me what you think first." William glanced at John, tens of thousands of dollars was not a bit of money.
"I don't know management or investment, but my estate has 60 acres of tobacco, and the income is not bad." John talked about the location of his estate and the surrounding conditions.
"Where can you buy more land to grow tobacco, and listen to what you say should be more suitable for tobacco cultivation. And no one wants to go there, so the land will be very cheap." William suggested.
"As for the person who buys tobacco, the employer I'm going to serve has two cigarette factories under the name, and you don't have to worry about no one buying your tobacco."
"If you don't have time to take care of it, this is the best investment for you. Ask someone to plant and wait for the money every year. The return isn't too high, but it's safe."
"Well, it makes sense." John nodded.
"You can also consider other investments. If the funds are enough to open a logging farm or something. Or invest in some other things, but that kind of risk is relatively high and you don't have time to deal with it, I suggest not."
William and John were talking about business and investment along the way. At nine o'clock in the morning, the train arrived at the station in Saint Denis.
"Billy, go to the pier to see if there is a boat going to the Blackwater Town pier, buy a ticket, I'll take her to the hospital first." John said to Billy with the woman on his back.
"Mr. William, take them to a nearby restaurant and hotel first," John said to William.
William nodded to show that he knew.
"Let's have something to eat first. After Billy is done, we are heading to Blackwater Town. I will take her to the hospital first." John ordered a carriage to go to the hospital in Saint Denis.
Saint Denis is the most prosperous place in the west. Street lights trams, police at three steps and one post.
The hospital in Saint Denis is located in the city center and occupies a large area. It has been built for more than ten years and is well equipped.
After a comprehensive examination by the doctor, the doctor found that she had a severe fever, and her injuries were aggravated by her severe physical loss. She almost fainted from the burn.
The hospital gave her a comprehensive test, followed by a series of maintenance injections and medicines. After a while of work, the doctor said that she was fine, she only needed to take a few days of self-cultivation, and she should be able to wake up in the afternoon.
The rest is to pay the money and fill in the information, which costs a lot. More than sixty dollars, and John also directly wrote his name on the information.
There really isn't much to worry about here.
After paying the money, John hesitated whether to leave directly. She was all right, and he didn't know her.
After hesitating for a while, John left her a letter with fifty dollars in it and a few simple words.
Then she put the envelope inside her clothes.
Then she explained that the doctor needed to leave, and gave the medical staff five dollars to ask her to take care of the woman after she woke up. She might have to go out for a while.
After confirming that it was all right, John left the hospital. Then head towards the gun shop in Saint Denis.
Along the way, John met many fellows from China.
Although he looks white now, he still looks kind.
"Hey, friend, do you know where the firearms are?" asked John, a sallow-faced Chinese, using modern Chinese. "
Hearing the unfamiliar and very familiar Mandarin Chinese eyes widen, he looked John up and down.
"Sir, the best gun shop in the city is at the end of the street, turn right, and then turn left in the middle." Seeing that John was white, the Chinese didn't dare to look at it for too long, so they respectfully helped John The way is clear, and the action is a little humble.
"Thank you, what's your name? My name is John." John looked at him and extended his hand very happily.
"Zheng Guotian, nice to meet you, why do you speak our Mandarin? Have you been to China?" Zheng Guotian asked curiously.
"When I was a child, my great-grandfather did business in Malaya, and then came here with his parents." John said very happily.
"Actually, my grandfather is half Chinese, so I am a bit of Chinese blood."
"Really, your great-grandfather is so amazing that he was able to marry a foreigner." Zheng Guotian looked at John's face, which indeed had a bit of oriental blood.
"It's okay." John laughed.
"Are you busy? If you're not busy, don't mind taking me there." John looked at the guy and issued an invitation.
"Of course I'm not busy. In fact, I didn't find anything suitable to do today." Zheng Guotian said with a sigh.
"There will be work, so take me there."
"Well. It's hard to meet a talkative white man like you here." Zheng Guotian said as he led the way.
"What are you doing here?" John asked, looking at Zheng Guotian, who was sallow and thin.
"Doing hard labor, mining, repairing railways and other heavy work at the Cornwall company's wharf, there is no way, we can't do decent work." Zheng Guotian complained.
"Are there many of you? Are there any fellow villagers or something?" John asked about his fellow countrymen.
"Many, there are tens of thousands recorded by Mr. Zheng. The location of the Association is located in the poverty-stricken area in the east. You can find out if you ask someone. We have to hand over a protection fee to the local police station every month. and the gang boss."
"Do you earn a lot?" John pondered for a while after hearing this.
"Not much, only about one-third of that of white people, it's not bad to be alive." Zheng Guotian said.
"Ah, here we are, the owner here is also Chinese, and the gun shop is opened by Mr. Zheng from the Hometown Association. If you want to buy a gun, maybe he can give you a discount." Zheng Guotian pointed to the gun shop and said.
"Master Zheng?" I understood.
"Zheng Guotian, take this." John took out thirty dollars and gave it to Zheng Guotian.
"There's ten dollars in it for your reward. Go have a good meal, and buy the rest for the brothers who haven't worked today. I'll invite you. Is that okay?"
"Oh~ thank you, Mr. John, that's great, I can buy a lot of things, thank you so much, Mr. John." Zheng Guotian who took the money was very happy and kept thanking John.
"Just call me John. Actually, my grandfather gave me a Chinese name when I was a child, Li Zhi. You may also call me Li Zhi." John talked about his previous name.
"Li Zhi, it's good to have a name."
"Maybe I'll go back to my hometown to see after a while. I hope you don't go out to work." John said with a smile.
"When the time comes, you can just talk to the people in the Association of Hometowns, and they will find me. Li Zhi, thank you, thank you so much." Zheng Guotian kept thanking him.
"It's alright, let's go eat something, you look hungry." John patted his shoulder and said.
Then Zheng Guotian left happily, John raised his eyes and glanced at the name of the shop.
'The Gun Shop'
A simple and clear name.
"Welcome, this guest, what does this guest want." The Chinese boss wore a pair of small sunglasses, a long braid, and a lucky hat.
The decoration here is gorgeous. It seems that Mr. Zheng has put a lot of thought into it.
"How much is that?" John said, pointing to the M1899 on the counter.
It was a very modern sidearm, a fully automatic high rate of fire pistol.
"That one? It's the latest pistol. The workmanship and materials are all the best of the best. It's very expensive." The boss looked back at the pistol and said.
"how much?"
"$95 each, with a box of ammo and an extra clip." Expensive, but it's worth the price.
"Is there a matching holster?" John asked.
"Of course, we thought of these when we sold this gun, a calfskin holster with very fine workmanship." The boss thoughtfully took out a very good-looking holster from under the counter.
"Can I see it?" John said, pointing to the gun.
"Of course." The boss took out the black-style pistol from the counter and handed it to John.
John picked it up and looked left and right. It was exactly the same as the standard M1900 of modern American police, but the workmanship looked more refined.
"Very well, I want two, plus eight clips. This holster is yours~www.NovelMTL.com~ John hung the calfskin holster directly on his hand, and put it away. M1899.
"It's really refreshing, $230." The boss took out another box with a smile, and opened it to reveal another m1899 in dark style. There are two magazines and a box of ammo inside. Then he took out a row of M1899 magazines.
"Well." John took out the money, then took everything and left.
As soon as he left the door, John hid sideways in a place where no one was around, then put his original gun holster in his backpack and put on these two modern hot weapons.
After doing all this, John went directly to the pier to see how they prepared.
When he came to the pier, John saw Billy smoking at the station today.
John walked over.
"Billy, where did they go, is there a boat?"
"Mr. John, the boat is ready in forty minutes. They are all on board. It is estimated that they will reach Blackwater Town at around six o'clock tonight." Billy finally waited for John, and then reported the progress to him. .
"Have you eaten yet?" John asked, looking at Billy.
"Not yet, I'm afraid you can't find Mr. John, so I'll be waiting here." Billy said after putting down the cigarette **** and stomping it out.
"I didn't eat either. Let's go get something to eat." John put his arms around Billy's shoulders and walked towards the restaurant not far away.
"Well." Billy nodded, and then he looked at the new weapon on John's waist.
"Take it and see, something new." John took out a handful and handed it to Billy.
Billy took a few glances and handed it back.
Then the two of them ate something in the restaurant and boarded the boat to Blackwater Town.
