Chapter 128

~7 min read 1,327 words

The silent night fell, and the stars hung high in the firmament.

In the town, after Zhang Cheng and the others left, Joe also heard the bar owner's words and had some thoughts in his heart.

Because this town was almost ruined by these two groups of people, he had to find a way to eradicate them!

But before Joe could prepare his own action, while circling between the two groups, the sound of hoofbeats suddenly rang out in the night.

Accompanied by a large number of warhorses charging in, people wearing black overcoats began a gun attack.

Just as Ramon and Sheriff John, who had no defense, were stunned, the newcomers were even more ruthless, shooting all the armed men.

Hiding in the bar, Joe looked at this scene with a look of shock.

Because these people's marksmanship was too accurate; basically, they pulled the trigger as soon as they raised their hands.

Even he didn't dare to say he could confront such gunmen head-on!

Riding his horse from behind, Zhang Cheng looked at a fallen Krieg soldier and slowly approached him.

"The Emperor's glory will guide your return journey!"

Raising his hand, Zhang Cheng pulled the trigger.

After finishing this, Zhang Cheng turned his head, and saw two Krieg soldiers dragging Ramon and his brother out.

Forced to the ground, Ramon looked at the man before him and couldn't help but fall silent.

"Where is the gold?"

Looking at Ramon, Zhang Cheng asked.

But just as he finished speaking, Ramon didn't say a word.

Raising the revolver in his hand, Zhang Cheng aimed at him, "You have no chance to refuse! Last time, where is my gold!"

"No, that's not your gold..."

Raising his head in anger, Ramon roared.

Because that was the gold they had robbed after attacking the U. S. military and the Mexicans!

But before he could finish speaking, Zhang Cheng backhanded and shattered his brother's head.

"Ah!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in anger, Ramon roared hysterically.

But in the next second, Zhang Cheng stuffed the gun barrel into his mouth, "Tell me, where is my gold?"

"Basement, basement!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in fear, Ramon explained hurriedly.

"In return, I won't kill you!"

Looking at Ramon, Zhang Cheng politely retracted his revolver and wiped it clean with his clothes.

But just as Zhang Cheng turned around, the Krieg soldier beside him swung his entrenching tool and directly severed his neck.

"Pfft!"

As blood splattered on his boots, Zhang Cheng turned his head, "Do you have to make it so bloody?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng silently, the Krieg soldier raised his hand and pointed at a Krieg soldier nearby.

"I know, he did it last time, but were you right?"

Seeming to understand the Krieg's explanation, Zhang Cheng complained with annoyance.

Looking at Zhang Cheng speechlessly, the Krieg soldier remained silent, because he was really too long-winded!

Krieg Death Korps: Suddenly miss the days of charging at Orks!

Ork: Waaagh!

Zhang Cheng: Are you saying I talk too much?

After searching for gold and banknotes from the homes of Sheriff John and Ramon, Zhang Cheng turned around and prepared to leave.

He wasn't Joe; Zhang Cheng would never do anything without profit.

Harming others without benefiting oneself? No. Harming others and hurting oneself? Even worse!

The Lu Mou next door lacks benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trust; it's as if Zhang Cheng has one of them!

Watching this group of people leave, Joe suddenly thought of something and rushed down to check the wounds.

And at this moment, the old man from the coffin shop came out, holding a measuring tape and starting to weigh things up.

Looking at the old man from the coffin shop who had the spirit of a "craftsman," Joe was also speechless.

Because this morning, he had measured a coffin for himself too, but Joe didn't ask him why he didn't measure one for Zhang Cheng and the others; the answer was that there were 150 of them, so who would die was not certain!

The next morning, the sun was bright.

Zhang Cheng, humming a little tune, was happily heading toward Dekesasizhou.

Joe was a man with a spirit of chivalry, but it didn't suit him!

After all, Zhang Mouren had carried out the faith of his ancestors: in a word, mine, mine, it's all mine!

Passing through the uninhabited border line,

the team soon entered Dekesasizhou.

In a desolate town, Zhang Cheng looked at the undeveloped land here and was dumbfounded.

Because if he were to reclaim wasteland here, would it be too much trouble?

You have to know, he only had 150 people in his hands now!

Thinking that he might have chosen the wrong "territory," Zhang Cheng fell silent.

"If this place doesn't work, then let's go to Houston!"

Thinking that he needed to develop in a coastal city, Zhang Cheng continued to advance toward Houston.

But while Zhang Cheng was talking and walking, the Krieg soldier beside him spread his hands with a speechless expression and pointed to the west.

"What? You want me to go back to the West? I am..."

Looking at the Krieg soldier in a daze, Zhang Cheng was about to say that he was a wanted criminal with a bounty of over 20,000 dollars, but in the next second, he asked in confusion, "Wait, they're looking for Tang, what does that have to do with me, Zhang Mouren!"

Almost backhanding himself a slap, Zhang Cheng complained.

Because he seemed to have overestimated the "pursuit intensity" of this era!

As a firm believer in "cutting weeds and pulling out roots," Zhang Cheng had never exposed his appearance!

Even for the Krieg soldiers, people only knew they wore black military overcoats!

Raising his lips into a Tom the Cat smile, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but cackle.

Because if you play the "darkness under the lamp" trick well, it's simply more exciting than Bai Yutang living in Kaifeng Prefecture!

Who would have thought that the man who once ravaged all of California had transformed into a wealthy man from Dekesasizhou!

Half a month later, a train arrived in San Francisco.

Looking at the large number of cowboys escorting gold, Uther rushed forward, "Welcome, respected sir, I am Uther!"

Looking at Uther before him, Zhang Cheng smiled, "My name is Zhang, Zhang of integrity!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in confusion, Uther immediately smiled and said, "Very happy to meet you. May I ask what you are here for this time?"

"To deposit money. Although your bank has experienced trouble, I still believe in your strength!"

Looking at Uther seriously, Zhang Cheng explained.

"Really? Thank you so much, Zhang!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with excitement, Uther wanted to shed tears.

Because he never expected that after Wells Fargo Bank had experienced such things, someone would still believe in him!

But if Uther knew that the man who robbed him was the Zhang Cheng before him, Uther would probably take off his glove and smash it into his face!

Uther: Pick it up, I told you to pick up the glove!

Zhang Cheng: A duel with me? Are you crazy?

After a long calculation, Zhang Cheng's assets were finally tallied: a total of more than 2.3 million dollars.

You have to know, in 1850, the number of millionaires was as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns!

And Zhang Cheng's wealth clearly exceeded that of the vast majority of individuals! And he had used less than two months to get this money!

Wells Fargo Bank: This is my money, mine!

Federal Reserve: I said that back then too, but it was useless!

After signing the contract, Zhang Cheng looked at Uther, "Perhaps we can become friends, don't you think? Mr. Uther!"

"Of course, we will definitely be very good friends!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a smile, Uther saw a glimmer of light called ambition in the other's eyes.
