Chapter 935: No One Opposed
The door was slowly pushed open, and people's gazes fell on Lanse, who was sitting behind the desk, and then they noticed the manager sitting with his back to them.
The manager sat with his back to them, holding his head, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Bargas walked over with a smile, shaking hands with them while letting them come in and sit down first.
"What are you doing?"
The captain of the mine protection team directly slapped away Bargas's hand that was reaching out, glaring at him with angry eyes.
Perhaps others would deal with this nominal mine owner somewhat hypocritically, after all, he could be considered a peripheral member of the Lavila family—
It is worth mentioning that it wasn't that Diego wasn't willing to use core family members, but that the Lavila family itself wasn't a complete whole, and there were some struggles and squeezing among them.
If he let a core member become the mine owner, then this mine owner would be the real mine owner, and this mine would have nothing to do with him.
For example, Diego had an uncle. If he let his uncle come, then this mine would be his uncle's, not his.
Only using peripheral family members like Bargas was the most suitable.
The manager would take care of his face, but the captain of the mine protection team didn't have this idea.
He had people in his hands, and he had guns. At this time, the person with a gun was the ruthless one!
As long as the army didn't come, everyone had to respect his thoughts and opinions.
He was also Diego's loyal friend and subordinate, and couldn't betray Diego, so he didn't need to respect anyone here, but instead had to be respected by others.
He felt that the atmosphere in the room wasn't quite right, so he was instinctively vigilant toward Bargas.
Bargas looked at his hand that had been slapped away, but didn't say anything, just smiled. "Nothing, just have something that needs to be announced in front of everyone."
"Since the captain isn't willing to shake hands with me, then please sit down."
The captain of the mine protection team glanced sideways at Bargas, and then looked at Lanse twice. He walked toward the manager.
At this moment, the manager really wanted to turn around and tell him, don't come over, and then gather the people, but Hiram had been staring at him.
That young man's gaze was like a knife, stabbing at him, stabbing him so he didn't dare to raise his head, didn't dare to do anything.
Even if he just thought about it, his heartbeat would accelerate crazily.
Soon, the footsteps behind him got closer and closer, and the manager also fell into despair.
Because the captain of the mine protection team and his people were all in this room, others didn't have anything to worry about.
These mine protection team members had guns, so they didn't believe who else could deal with them.
They also came to the opposite side of the desk and sat down at the chairs Bargas had prepared for them.
At this time, the captain sat beside the manager, looking at him with confusion. "What's wrong with your head?"
Hiram's blow, although it didn't break his head, also caused it to swell, a very obvious swelling, and there might be some blood stasis.
The manager glanced sideways at Hiram again, shook his head, and didn't speak.
The captain looked at the people around, said "mysterious" lightly, and then looked at Lanse and Bargas.
"I came back this time mainly to announce something to everyone."
"I have already sold this Ma Bei Mountain silver mine in my hands to Mr. Lanse White."
"From today on, Mr. Lanse will be everyone's boss, and also the new mine owner."
Just as the words fell, the captain of the mine protection team stood up. "What the fuck are you talking about?"
"Who doesn't know this mine is... Diego's, what yours, what his, what on earth are you thinking?"
He stared at Bargas with wide eyes, and also looked at Lanse twice.
As the captain of the mine protection team, his appearance was very fierce. When he widened his eyes, it was indeed a bit scary.
This had something to do with the things he had experienced. They had dealt with many miners. When this kind of thing was done too much, it would naturally produce something that made their own kind feel fear.
This feeling was wonderful, but it indeed existed.
Just like livestock seeing a butcher, they would often be scared into trembling, because they could feel the aura on the butcher that made them tremble!
The captain of the mine protection team also had it. Bargas didn't dare to meet his gaze anymore.
This made the captain of the mine protection team feel a bit self-satisfied, but Lanse wasn't affected by him. He displayed the documents, authorization letters, sales agreements, etc., again. "According to Lapa's law, I am now the owner of this silver mine."
"Does anyone oppose?"
The captain, who was already a bit impatient, slammed the table. "I oppose!"
"What kind of thing are you, daring to touch Diego's things?"
"Don't you want to live?"
The soldiers standing behind the crowd took some rifles from their backs to their front. They looked at the people around them with arrogant attitudes hidden in their eyes.
For them, as long as they could be killed by bullets, they couldn't pose a threat to them.
After killing too many of their own kind, they would lose awe for life, including their own.
They couldn't feel danger.
Others saw that the captain of the mine protection team had already expressed his attitude, and immediately stood up one after another to oppose Lanse's decision.
"Who doesn't know Bargas is just a puppet? You take a puppet's things to report?"
"Young man, the situation here is very complicated, far from what you can touch. You'd better put down the things and roll out of here, otherwise, you'll very likely not be able to go back, and won't be able to see your mother!"
Others also laughed and said, "I have never seen such a ridiculous thing. Someone actually wants to seize the Lavila family's wealth in Lapa, and it's Diego's own!"
Others also laughed loudly one after another. They didn't notice that Bargas had already left after inviting them in.
Lanse leaned on the chair, watching their arrogant laughter, only feeling it was very interesting.
The captain of the mine protection team suddenly seemed to remember something. He looked at the manager who was still sitting on the side. "What's wrong with you?"
The manager looked up at him, his eyes revealing something he couldn't understand, but which made him suddenly very panicked.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and he suddenly reached out to take the gun in the holster, but the next second, with a bang, everyone's laughter was curbed at this moment!
The two people standing behind the captain looked at the brain matter on their bodies in horror, and the captain whose brain was wide open, and bursts of strong vomiting desire started to surge.
The two vomited violently while bending over almost without distinction.
It wasn't because they felt how disgusting it was. In fact, this kind of thing, in an instant, or the first time, couldn't feel disgusting.
Many people's brains couldn't even sort out the whole thing in time, and were still explaining to themselves what had happened. How could there be time to let themselves produce a vomiting desire?
In fact, this kind of vomiting came from fear.
The most direct, fastest emotional response.
Because of fear, violent vomiting.
Others were also stunned. They looked at the corpse with a big hole in its brain sitting on the chair. The captain looked up at the ceiling, his eyes completely losing focus, becoming dull, becoming... like a dead fish.
His two eyeballs were even looking at different places. The brain, at the moment of receiving a heavy blow, affected some changes in his body.
The soldiers he brought hadn't had time to take down the rifles on their backs, and were riddled with holes.
Everyone's face was pale. Lanse was still crossing his legs like that, sitting with his hands on his legs.
Hiram raised his pistol again and started "roll calling" them. This time he changed to a large-caliber pistol. The sour and refreshing feedback of that shot to his wrist gave him a kind of indescribable pleasure!
The bullets were no longer like drilling into people's bodies without power. This large-caliber pistol, every shot, was like a heavy fist hitting these people, hitting them back, or even falling down, and then taking their lives.
Gunshots rang out constantly. Lanse's toes shook slightly. He witnessed all this calmly and composedly.
Finally, the hot muzzle pressed against the manager's head, scalding him into sweating all over, and also revealing a look of despair.
He opened his mouth, and finally couldn't utter a single syllable, only showing a look of begging.
If he could, he actually didn't want to die either.
Lanse's face had some more smiles at this time. "Look, the simplest way to resolve differences is to resolve those who create differences."
"Now, no one opposes."
"Bang!" The gunshot rang out, and a mine protection team member fell slowly. Bargas's heartbeat had already exceeded 180!
He led people to attack the dormitory area of the mine protection team, killing everyone he could see inside.
He had never seen such ruthless Federation people. They killed people like... killing small animals.
There wasn't a trace of pity in their eyes, and they wouldn't have any pity or similar emotions because they were strangers.
There was also no wavering. They seemed to be supported by a firm belief.
Those were people!
Even small animals would make people waver the next time they took action, but these people didn't. They were like natural executors, without feelings, only work.
"There's another one here!", Bargas saw the storage cabinet shaking slightly. When he shouted this sentence, he also didn't waver.
Soon the person in the storage cabinet pushed open the storage cabinet voluntarily. That was a young man who should be less than twenty years old.
He might have entered the silver mine to become a member of the mine protection team through some other means, such as bribing the captain of the mine protection team, using money, or the unique bribery method of the women in his family.
It was also possible that he knew the captain of the mine protection team, or knew someone, to enter the silver mine to become a member of the mine protection team.
This was indeed an easy job. They didn't even need to watch the miners work; that was the supervisor's job.
They only needed to find some high places to stand, watching not to let those miners steal away.
When necessary, if they found miners secretly hiding silver, they would also drag those miners out, hang them in the square, and whip them with whips until they were air-dried!
Using fear to deter intelligent creatures was very useful.
This young man was a bit thin, unlike other colleagues who were fat and strong. His face was also full of begging looks.
It had to be said that this young man looked quite handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and should be very popular among girls.
"Please, I just started working..."
The next moment, the gunshot rang out. He raised his head sharply, and two bullet holes appeared on his face, followed by a few more shots, until he didn't move at all.
Then he was dragged out of the storage cabinet and placed on the ground.
Corpses were placed neatly together, which really made people feel fear.
At this time, the mining site had been completely controlled. Staff members started to be driven toward the playground, and workers were also discussing what had happened.
Someone ran back to the office and told Lanse that the mining site had been completely controlled. Only then did he put down the legs he had been crossing, stomped his feet, and let his pants become smooth again.
"Hook these people up and hang them in the square."
When he came in, he had already seen two miners hanging on the poles of the playground. The people were already dead, and even started dripping water, but they were still hanging.
This was the ultimate weapon used to deter miners, but now, the ones hung up were themselves.
If they were still alive, they definitely wouldn't want these things to happen, just like those miners who were hung up by them.
Staff members and miners were all crowded on the playground. On a three-story small building directly opposite them, Lanse's figure appeared.
Usually, this was the position where the manager stood. He would say something here, for example, asking workers to increase the speed of mining, and make corresponding rewards and punishments.
Or decide the life and death of some miners in front of people.
They never avoided people. Entering this mining area was no different from dying or going to jail, even though they came voluntarily.
But today, this position welcomed its new owner!
"My name is Lanse, Lanse White. Let's get to know each other first."
"You can call me Mr. White, or Mr. Lanse, both are fine, and you can even give me a nickname."
"But the prerequisite is, don't let me know!"
"You must be very curious about what on earth happened."
"Actually, it's very simple. I bought the ownership of this silver mine from the previous mine owner, Mr. Bargas, with money."
"From the day we signed the contract, this silver mine belongs to me."
"But some people seem not willing to accept this fact."
His people started to move the corpses of these heads and brains in, and then used finger-thick hooks to hook into their bodies, then pulled the ropes, and hung them all up.
These people were dead as dead could be. A noisy sound appeared on the playground in an instant, and it got louder and louder.
Almost most people stared at Lanse dumbfounded—
Was he really not afraid of death?
This was in Lapa, on the land controlled by Diego!
Was this person crazy, or were they, these workers and employees, crazy?
Someone was noisy, but when a burst of bullets shot toward the open space in front of them, the entire playground became quiet again.
These people, the small leaders who weren't the main managers, didn't seem to care much about whether they were "loyal."
These people couldn't contact the Lapa government. Things like Diego's phone were only in the hands of the manager.
Even if others wanted to report the news, they first had to get
"Usually what you should do, do it now."
"Besides these, everyone's salary will be increased by 15%."
"Maybe you don't know how much that is. Simply put, for every 100, give you 15 more..."
The originally quiet miner group suddenly had some "reactions." They kept whispering to each other, and couldn't even maintain the most basic formation.
The supervisors looked over several times and wanted to go over, but finally held back. Who knew what the new boss was like.
As for the problem of Diego or not Diego... look at those unlucky eggs who were hung up. Wasn't this the best answer?
After reading out some new rules, for example, Lanse allowed them to go home to see their families, and besides giving them two weeks of vacation every year, he also reformulated their working hours and content.
Because some mining equipment would soon be transported from the Federation.
People here, especially bottom-level people, didn't care about changing bosses, and even accepted this fact.
Who let Lanse give more?
They were all selling their lives, so of course they hoped to sell themselves for a good price.
The entire mining area, under the dual means of death deterrence and salary and benefit increases, was easily controlled.
After solving these things, Lanse entered the manager's office. Some related documents and records of the mine were stored here.
Lanse flipped through some documents casually, and didn't investigate in detail.
"Find a separate room to store these. Maybe they can be used sometime in the future."
He looked at Bargas, his gaze falling on him. "You did very well, I am very satisfied."
Bargas was no longer as excited as he was just now. When the cold wind outside blew, looking at those corpses hanging on the gallows, swaying with the wind in the mountains, it was like a basin of cold water poured down from his head, cooling him to his heart!
"This is what I should do," he responded very carefully.
People all said Diego was cruel, but I don't know why, he felt that perhaps Diego wasn't as good as this Mr. Lanse.
Lanse could feel his nervousness at this time, but he didn't explain or clarify.
What makes you gain respect isn't your benevolence, but the awe others have for you!
"The things I promised you will definitely be done. You can go to the Federation anytime, anywhere, Bargas."
"I have already arranged a Federation identity for you. By way of investment immigration, you and your family have become legal Federation people."
"But, I want to give you some advice."
Bargas bent over. "Please say, Mr. Lanse."
"The Federation is a very special country. If you want to live very happily in that place, and want your family to live very happily over there, you must have money."
"Your money doesn't look small, but if you buy a better villa and buy two better cars, there won't be much left."
"Only expenditure, no income, you won't be able to persist for long."
Bargas listened to these words and was silent for a while. "I am willing to serve you, Mr. Lanse."
