Chapter 997: The missing gold, five-whip lash upon starting work!

California, Wells Fargo Bank,

When the gold worth five million dollars disappeared, the New York headquarters immediately sent a letter of reprimand.

That is, no matter what they do, they must find this batch of gold back.

Facing the message from headquarters, the branch manager could only dispatch the most elite cowboys in his hands, as well as seek help from the Texas Rangers.

After all, five boxes of gold in this era are equivalent to more than 800 million today!

Losing such a huge sum of money, let alone the New York headquarters exploding, even during the period when Zhang Cheng served as president, he would have gone crazy.

A month later, the already very prosperous Big Whiskey town was now even more crowded because of the gold matter.

However, many people were not here to find gold, but to work.

Because Zhang Cheng had spread the news of recruitment, causing many people to come here to "work."

Looking at the long lines at the scene, Zhang Cheng said with satisfaction, "It seems many people like the reward I give!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Luo Sai beside him said, "Boss, there are many white people among them? Should they all be thrown into the mine?"

"Luo Sai, how many times have I told you? We must treat everyone equally. Since they are here to find work, why should we treat them differently!"

Looking at Luo Sai with a smile on his face, the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth gradually rose.

But just as he picked up his wine glass, LaBoeuf appeared.

Looking at the old acquaintance before him, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "What are you doing here looking for me? LaBoeuf!"

"Do you know about the gold?"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, LaBoeuf couldn't help but inquire, and then sat down on his own.

Because the two had fought side by side before, getting along wasn't too awkward.

"I've heard of it, but after it was robbed, I took people to pursue the robbers, but the snow was too heavy!"

Explaining to LaBoeuf, Zhang Cheng revealed a very helpless expression.

Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, LaBoeuf said, "Then should we go together? I heard that the reward offered by Wells Fargo Bank is very high, nearly 200,000 dollars!"

"Sorry, LaBoeuf, I'm busy with the mine!"

Apologizing to LaBoeuf, Zhang Cheng looked as if he was powerless to help.

After all, the gold was robbed by him, and that group of robbers just passed it through their hands.

Hearing Zhang Cheng say this, LaBoeuf didn't feel discouraged, but smiled and said, "If I need help, I hope you can help!"

"Of course, no problem. After all, we are partners!"

Reaching out his hand, Zhang Cheng watched LaBoeuf leave with a smile on his face.

And just at this moment, Tristan walked up and said, "Boss, the first batch of people is ready and can be sent to the mine at any time!"

"Then take them away. Remember, take everyone there; don't leave anyone behind, understand?"

Looking at Tristan, Zhang Cheng smiled.

"I know, don't worry!"

Assuring Zhang Cheng, Tristan thought the other party was afraid that this group of people would accidentally enter the Indian territory and be in danger.

But he didn't know that Zhang Cheng's meaning in asking him to take everyone there was not to let any labor force escape!

After five or six days of long-distance trekking, the first batch of 300 people arrived at the mine.

However, when they arrived here, everyone was dumbfounded because it was too desolate here, completely different from what was said in the recruitment news.

And just at this moment, rapid hoofbeats rang out, and the Indians appeared.

When they held long guns and surrounded the people, they roared immediately.

Looking at the fierce Indians, many people at the scene panicked.

Some even intended to draw the revolvers at their waists, but fell into a pool of blood in the next second.

Standing at the commanding height, Krieg coldly overlooked everything and continued to stare at them.

"Everyone, welcome to the mine. From now on, you will start working here until you die!"

Speaking of this, Luo Sai turned his head and said, "Distribute iron picks to them!"

"No, you bunch of liars, you deceived us!"

Roaring loudly, a black man stood out and shouted.

However, hearing his words, Luo Sai turned around and said, "We didn't deceive everyone. After all, the high-paying job is true, and the food and housing are also true, but only one thing is false, and that is that you have to work here until you die!"

Facing Luo Sai's explanation, everyone just stood on the spot; no one picked up the iron pick at all.

"Snap!"

The horse whip danced, and Luo Sai roared at one person, "Get in there and work, or I will kill you all!"

"Ah!"

Under the screams, a nigger standing in front immediately wailed because a bloodstain appeared on his face.

"Krieg!"

Speaking coldly, just as Luo Sai finished speaking, the Krieg who walked out from the periphery was holding an engineering shovel, ready to take action.

"Hey, calm down, Luo Sai. Boss said they can't all die!"

Pulling Luo Sai, Tristan felt unbearable in his heart, but could only execute the order.

Because he knew too well what would happen if Zhang Cheng got angry.

After all, even the legendary vampire had his head cut off by the other party; could this group of people still rebel!

And just as the scene turned into a confrontation, a person rode a horse from the distance.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Cheng snatched the horse whip and waved it.

"Snap! Snap! Snap!"

A few whistling sounds rang out, and the niggers at the scene retreated in fear, as if the memories of their ancestors had been awakened.

"Get in there, or I will let you die!"

Speaking coldly, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but rebuke.

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the Kriegs also stepped forward one after another.

"We won't..."

Just as a sturdy nigger walked out, Zhang Cheng immediately waved the whip in his hand.

"Snap!"

Under the shrill scream, half of the man's face was bloody.

However, Zhang Cheng didn't stop his movements, repeatedly waving the whip until the other party completely lost all movement, and then he said, "Give them five lashes each. Remember who the master is!"

Drawing the whip at his waist, the Kriegs strictly began to execute the order.

Amidst the constantly ringing wails, this group of people was finally forced to pick up iron picks and enter the mine.

Looking at this scene, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but turn his head and say, "See? This is the correct way to use a whip!"

And hearing Zhang Cheng's words, the Indian not far away walked up and said, "Zhang!"

"I'm very happy to see you, Qiu! Your next task is very simple, and that is not to let anyone leave this forest, understand?"

Reaching out his hand with a smile on his face, Zhang Cheng shook hands tightly with the other party.

"I know, Zhang!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng happily, Qiu also smiled.

Because since cooperating with Zhang Cheng, the tribe's living standards had obviously improved a lot.

And thinking of the 20% silver mine income every year, he couldn't help but smile.

When the stumbling mine began to operate, Zhang Cheng continued to expand the "recruitment work." After all, 300 people were not enough; at least 3,000 were needed. As for the later period, there would be even more.

After all, people will be depleted, so he must plan for the long term!

Looking at Zhang Cheng, who was sitting on a horse and coldly staring at everything, Tristan felt that the boss seemed even more terrifying than a vampire!

Vampire: I at most suck some blood, but he wants your life!
