Chapter 993: Capital needs to be irrigated with blood!

~7 min read 1,298 words

Reservation, Indian tribe,

Tasting the herbal tea, Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "I need the mining area here! Of course, in exchange, I can provide you with everything, including trade and security!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng’s words, the chief said angrily, "Even the land you live on belongs to us!"

"Kin, you are blaming the wrong person; I am not one of those executioners!"

Facing the chief’s rebuke, Zhang Cheng glanced at Rooster and the others beside him.

"Hey, what are they saying? Why do I feel something is not right?"

Looking at Tristan curiously, Rooster could clearly feel a dangerous gaze.

"He is saying we stole the land!"

Looking at Rooster, Tristan explained honestly.

Actually, he also knew Indian; after all, he had been learning "Indian" culture with his father's friends since he was a child.

He enjoyed hunting because it made him feel very excited, and at the same time, he was unruly!

"Have you cleared out that group of robbers wandering outside?"

Asking Zhang Cheng, the chief began to speak.

"That's right; they are a destabilizing factor that will bring unnecessary trouble to our communication!"

Looking at the chief in front of him, Zhang Cheng placed the silver in front of him and said, "Although this isn't gold, it can bring a lot of wealth. I will give you 20% of the profits every year; you just need to acknowledge my rights."

"Hey, this guy didn't come here for the Lucky Ned gang at all; he's here for the silver!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Rooster and LaBoeuf were stunned.

Originally, they thought Zhang Cheng was a man pursuing justice, but they didn't expect this guy to be the real mastermind!

Hearing Rooster and LaBoeuf’s words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but turn his head and say, "Can you shut your mouths? Otherwise, I wouldn't mind hanging you from a tree!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Rooster seemed to want to say something more, but was held back by Mattie, because the situation was stronger than the person.

"You want to hire my tribesmen to mine?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, a gloomy look appeared on the chief’s face.

"No, I won't let my kin go into the dark underground. The wealth I give you is what you deserve, because we are one family. I will let those damn people go into the mine!"

Speaking seriously, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile.

"Every year?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, the chief was taken aback.

Because the merchants who came here to mine would treat them as a threat and wouldn't offer any benefits at all.

But now, Zhang Cheng was taking the initiative to share, and he didn't even need their tribesmen to enter the mine; this was really too strange!

"I will build a school here to let your tribesmen master knowledge, but at the same time, they will need to help me in the future!"

Smiling at the chief, Zhang Cheng reached out his hand and said, "How about it? Shall we cooperate?"

"If you betray your oath, I will kill you myself!"

Staring at Zhang Cheng seriously, the chief turned solemn.

"Don't worry, I won't betray my own people!"

Looking at the hand the chief extended, Zhang Cheng also smiled.

Although only a silver mine had been discovered here for now, it didn't guarantee there weren't gold mines; as long as he accumulated more capital, he could start excavating the resources of this land!

As for the candidates for miners, Zhang Cheng had already decided.

That was the group of "negroes" who were currently eager to turn their lives around and become masters.

He wanted to give this group of people a "high-paying job offer" on the other side of the ocean!

Once the people arrived, they would be thrown directly into the mine shafts.

Anyway, this wasn't something he hadn't done before; children were used as women, women as men, and men as livestock!

Capital needs blood, and they were the stepping stones for him to become the uncrowned king!

Coming out of the tribe,

Rooster looked at Zhang Cheng with an increasingly dangerous gaze: "You guy will definitely trample on the law in the future!"

"What stupid things are you saying? I am a firm executor of the law!"

Looking at Rooster with a playful face, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but walk up to him and say, "You are for the bounty, I am for justice; is there anything wrong with that?"

"Is your damn justice just stealing silver mines?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Rooster couldn't help but question him.

"Otherwise, what do you think is driving me to become righteous?"

Smiling at Rooster, Zhang Cheng patted his shoulder and said, "You're old enough, don't be so hateful of evil; you have to learn to embrace life and enjoy everything!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng’s words, Rooster wished he could pull out his revolver.

But seeing his appearance, LaBoeuf quickly stopped him: "Hey, enough, Rooster, don't forget what our goal is!"

Hearing LaBoeuf’s words, Rooster turned around and said, "Are you going to follow me, or follow this villain?"

"I'm going with you!"

Hearing LaBoeuf’s words, Mattie immediately made a decision.

The reason he was so angry was that Zhang Cheng made him feel that justice had been tarnished.

But is there really justice in this world?

They say delayed justice is still justice, but for Zhang Cheng, delayed justice is nothing more than the truth!

Those with blood on their hands will not have a good end.

Ni Yongxiao: If you come out to run the underworld, you'll have to pay it back sooner or later!

Zhang Cheng: Meeting me means it's time for you to pay your debts!

Ghost Rider: ...

After several days of tracking, Rooster and the others still hadn't found Chaney’s whereabouts.

However, on this morning, a gunshot woke everyone up.

When the group, who were still arguing about parting ways, heard the gunshot, they immediately became vigilant.

A few minutes later, when they arrived at a plain, they saw Zhang Cheng, holding a revolver, shooting with both hands.

As robbers kept falling, the horses began to run around in chaos.

In the chaotic scene, Tristan had already been shot, but he was still stubbornly hiding behind cover.

"They ran into an ambush!"

Speaking in astonishment, LaBoeuf quickly raised the rifle in his hand.

And just then, Rooster had already charged out on horseback.

Just as he intended to help, he saw that Zhang Cheng had already finished off all the robbers.

Looking at the five or six robbers who had been there, all falling in a single exchange, Rooster was also dumbfounded.

Because his marksmanship was truly accurate!

"Unlucky guy, are you okay!"

Arriving in front of Tristan, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"Damn it, my arm is shot!"

Gritting his teeth, Tristan couldn't help but shout.

Dismounting, Zhang Cheng pulled out the dagger from his waist, held down his arm, and picked the bullet out directly.

"Ah!"

The shrill scream echoed through the entire canyon; Tristan’s wailing seemed to make people feel despair.

However, facing this scene, Zhang Cheng calmly put away the dagger and helped him stop the bleeding: "Enough, you're screaming like a girl! It's not a fatal wound."

"If it were a fatal wound, could he still scream?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng suspiciously, Lai Fujie asked.

"Why not? Screaming in hell counts too!"

Smiling, Zhang Cheng pulled Tristan up and looked at Rooster, who was rushing over from the distance: "Hey, One-Eye, Chaney is right there; do you still need him?"

Looking at Chaney, whose forehead had been pierced by Zhang Cheng’s shot, Rooster said with disdain, "No need!"

"Is that so? That's a pity!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but complain.
