Chapter 1005: Offend me, and you will face retribution!

California, San Francisco,

On the street in the morning, people were looking at the distance in fear.

The cowboys walking on the street were throwing people like cargo into the carriage and then clapping their hands, as if throwing away garbage.

However, looking at their practiced appearance, it was clear they had done it many times.

Riding a horse and rushing over, when the sheriff learned about what happened here, his whole person couldn't help but be shocked.

Because he didn't expect that in San Francisco, there were still such arrogant guys, simply not taking him seriously.

Bringing people to the manor, the sheriff was panicked at this moment.

Because the Maxim machine gun placed at the door had already told him that the owner here was not to be trifled with.

"Hey, our boss wants you to go in!"

Coming out of the manor, the man wearing a cowboy hat looked at the sheriff and spoke.

"You guys wait here. If I encounter any trouble, remember to rush in and save me!"

Speaking to the people behind him, the sheriff began to speak.

And hearing the sheriff's words, the others were stunned on the spot.

Because did he want to listen to what he was saying? Rush in and save him? With what? Their lives?

The other party has two Maxims set up there, 600 rounds per minute; they would be riddled with holes before reaching the door. How to save him?

However, although that's what was said, everyone still nodded seriously. After all, if something really happened, they would run away on horseback, guaranteeing they would never look back!

Arriving in the manor, the sheriff was somewhat panicked at this moment.

Because the cowboys were playing cards and didn't seem to take him seriously at all.

Sitting on the soft bear-skin sofa, Zhang Cheng crossed his legs and said, "What are you looking for me for?"

"This, that, I..."

Looking at Zhang Cheng, who was quite oppressive before him, even if the sheriff was stupid, he guessed that the other party was the main person in charge.

Looking at the sheriff's stuttering appearance, Zhang Cheng waved his hand and said to Luo Sai, "Take two pieces of gold!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Luo Sai opened the box and took out two gold ingots.

Throwing them to the sheriff before him, Zhang Cheng said playfully, "Pick them up, they are yours!"

"Really?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, the sheriff's face was full of astonishment at this moment.

Because you must know that as a sheriff, in this era, he only earned 150 dollars a year.

But now, the two gold ingots Zhang Cheng threw to him were enough for him to work ten years less!

"Of course! I never lie to people!"

Looking at the sheriff with a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng was smoking a cigarette, exhaling thick fog.

Picking up the gold ingots excitedly, the sheriff became uneasy and said, "Sir, I just came to see if those robbers had hurt you. If they broke your window, I will have someone repair it immediately!"

"Very good, what is your name!"

Looking at the sheriff before him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but inquire.

"Smith, my name is Smith, sir!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Smith was immediately excited because this was his noble person!

Now don't talk about any anti-Chinese matters; this has nothing to do with a sheriff like him. He only cares about who gives more money now!

After all, people who can come to the other side of the ocean, their ancestors back then weren't any proper good people!

"My name is Zhang, Zhang Cheng—the 'Cheng' of integrity and honesty!"

Reaching out his hand, Zhang Cheng looked at Smith before him and said, "From now on, we are friends, right?"

"That's right, sir, we are friends!"

Walking up and shaking Zhang Cheng's hand, Smith explained hurriedly.

"This is a gift I give you. Go back and buy a beautiful dress for your daughter!"

Taking a gold coin from his pocket, Zhang Cheng handed it to Smith and spoke with a smile on his face.

"Thank you for your generosity, sir!"

Facing Zhang Cheng's "extravagance," Smith immediately became grateful.

Guarding outside nervously, the police officers couldn't help but feel uneasy.

However, just at this moment, Smith, who was bowing and thanking, walked out.

Looking at this scene in astonishment, the police officers were all dumbfounded, because was this still their arrogant sheriff? How did he become like this!

Just when everyone was confused, the cowboy who walked up opened the box, revealing the dollars inside, and said, "This is a gift from our boss, thanking you for your contribution to San Francisco!"

Speaking of this, the cowboy took out banknotes and distributed a stack to everyone.

Looking at the dollars in their hands, the police officers were all stunned on the spot, because what was this doing?

However, after someone counted them, they immediately smiled and said, "Thank your boss, God will protect him!"

And just after the cowboy left, many people became excited because this was their full year's salary!

Looking at the excited appearance of the police officers, the cowboy revealed a look of disdain. Sure enough, they were a bunch of bumpkins, not even having seen so little money?

Returning to the team, the sheriff's raised corners of his mouth could no longer be suppressed.

And the other police officers also got benefits, and their faces were filled with smiles.

"See? Luo Sai, in this world, no one can refuse gold, unless he has greater ambition!"

Looking out the window with a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng's mouth rose with contempt.

"Boss, although we handled the police station, currently, our situation is still very bad. California's latest regulations are very unfriendly to you!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Luo Sai placed the newspaper before him.

And hearing Luo Sai's words, Zhang Cheng turned around and said, "This is just a game of power. My compatriots built the railway, turning this desolate West into a 'Jin Shan', but now, they want to drive us away!"

Sneering, Zhang Cheng's eyes gradually became gloomy and said

"But won't we invite hostility by doing this?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in surprise, Luo Libiao was worried that doing this as soon as he arrived would easily lead to opposition.

"No one will go against me for the sake of the dead. Besides, San Francisco should have been ours to begin with! It was we who created this place!"

Making a fist-clenching gesture, Zhang Cheng then turned his head and said, "Tristan, have you still not found Nikola Tesla?"

"Sorry, Boss, Tesla's situation is a bit complicated; there are people from the Bureau watching him!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Tristan then began to explain.

Hearing Tristan's words, Zhang Cheng immediately understood that this Bureau was the predecessor to the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

After all, Nikola Tesla was too dangerous. Once a person like that was controlled by others, it could very likely cause an unimaginable disaster.

And compared to the so-called "King of Inventors" Edison, Nikola Tesla was the true genius; he was hailed as a man close to God!

However, it was precisely because he poured his heart and soul into scientific research that his final research results were sealed away by the Bald Eagle. After all, no one knew exactly what he had researched.

"It seems I'll have to use some illegal means!"

Tapping on the table, cold light flickered in Zhang Cheng's eyes.

As for Nikola Tesla, Zhang Cheng was determined to have him. After all, he could lack wisdom, but he would not allow himself to be without a genius by his side!

"Lock onto his location; I will go personally when the time comes!"

Speaking to Tristan, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile.

Because he was very curious about what this legend would say when they met.

Hopefully, he wouldn't want to experiment on him just because of his own power!
