Chapter 17: Blackjack
Thornton scratched his big belly and said, "Well, a man should have a home and his own career"! After that, he shyly lowered his stomach hard. It's like you're successful in your career.
Yin Hang nodded with a smile and said, "That's right!" I'm working on that!"
The two of them chatted for a while, and the double-opening door of the tavern was pushed open. Yin Hang looked back and saw a big man walking in. He was wearing a pair of short-legged pants, but he didn't look very good! It's like not waking up.
Thornton turned his head and said, "Ilsa, look at you, what has become of you by your wife, you want a man, ok?" ”!
Ilsamer walked over silently, and Thornton poured him a cup of tequila, and said, "Have a drink, and then I'll introduce you to a business"!
Ilsa still didn't let out half a fart, and after taking the wine glass, he raised his neck and dried it directly.
"This is like the words, drying up the wine in one gulp is the way for men to drink, it seems that you are not hopeless"! Thornton looked at his nephew a little annoyed, pointed at Yin Hang and continued: "This is your employer, he wants to build a big house"!
Yin Hang looked at the remaining half glass of wine, ignored Thornton's "one sip dry", took a sip, and said, "My name is Eastwood, it's nice to meet you"!
"Yes, Your Excellency, I know you! You single-handedly took out ten robbers"! For the first time, Ilsa spoke.
"I need to build a house now, and I heard you're the best architect in town"! Yin Hang didn't mind a little flattery to the other party, that was what an adult should do.
After hearing this, Ilsa was obviously in a much better mood, and couldn't help but straighten his chest a little, and said, "I'm just a craftsman, but I do have a hand in building houses!" ”!
After listening to him, Yin Hang took out thirty yuan from his pocket, handed it over, and said, "This is the deposit for building a house!"
Ilsa's eyes lit up when he saw the banknote, and he took it in his hand with a little hesitation, and said, "Sir, what kind of house do you want?" I promise to get it done!"
Yin Hang said: "When you go to the police station in the afternoon to find Deputy Sergeant Marko, he will register a piece of land of one hundred and sixty acres into my name, and then you will see how about that land first?" Then we will talk about what kind of house to build"!
"No problem, Your Excellency, I'll be there in time"! Ilsa's spirit finally perked up in the face of money.
At that moment, Yin Hang ate some food in Thornton's tavern. At this time, the food in the west was not very rich, such as legumes, including Mexican chickpeas, lentils, etc., and the staple food was biscuits and bread. Meat is cured pork, lamb. Other than that, there's not much to do.
Although this body is more suitable for the local diet at the moment, as soon as Yin Hang saw the beans, he wondered in his heart, if this thing eats too much, it will fart!! Not to mention that it is indecent in front of a female surname, even farting in front of a male surname is also a troublesome thing! But since he got here, he hasn't seen anyone let go of a loud fart, even if he only lets go to bed at night, two of them! It is also within the normal range. Could it be that these old beauties are really adapting?
He was thinking about it, and out of the corner of his eye, he saw someone push open the door of the bar and walk in. Turn your head to look. None other than Marco.
As soon as the deputy sheriff came in, although he saw Yin Hang, he just nodded, said hello, and then shouted: "I just received the news, the Black Jack brothers are going to duel with Spencer near our town, and those who have nothing to do, don't leave the town this afternoon"! Anyway, just like when he came, he walked out quickly!
It turns out that in the days of the western cowboys, duels were legal! However, it is divided into two situations, one is a sudden duel, two people do not agree with each other, and start to draw their guns to duel; The other is a "registered" duel, where the police station has a record, such as two people agreeing on what time and where. After that, the two of them started shooting at each other! Of course, some of this duel method is a rumor received by the police station, and it is not two people who want to duel, go to the police station to register!
Although the laws and regulations in the western region were almost a dead letter at that time, some police stations were still quite responsible, because if they were not responsible, who would still obey them! Is there an exception to that, embezzlement and bribery? Of course there are, and a lot! In fact, everyone understands the truth that there is no fish when the water is clear, and the same is true for Lao Mei, so if the police station has some sense of responsibility and takes care of something, everyone will turn a blind eye!
Now it is obvious that the Locke Town Police Department has received the news, so Marco will come to inform everyone, which can be regarded as fulfilling the duties of the deputy sheriff!
As soon as Yin Hang heard the news, he immediately became a little interested, it wasn't that he "owed Erdeng" to be embarrassed! It's for the sake of the future! Who can guarantee that no one in this day and age will come to you for a duel? Unless he lives carefully and carries forward the spirit of "being aggrieved in trouble", he may encounter it! So now that I have this opportunity, it's good to look at it from afar!
Thinking of this, Yin Hang asked Thornton about it!
If you want to talk about the news of the tavern owner, he is indeed better informed than others, and said: "This Black Jack brothers, who were also rangers before, are rumored to have done business in the early years of robbing houses, but there is no evidence, so the police station has not touched them." Now they settle in the town of Vegas. But not long ago, when Little Jack was grazing, there was friction with Spencer in our town, and Little Jack was injured by Spencer, I don't know how the injury was, but it shouldn't be serious. They're going to duel now, and I guess that's because of that! ”!
Kindness!! Yin Hang thought about it for a while, but it was not different, this is the case at this time, not to mention who was injured, there are some people with extremely arrogant surnames, and when they find that others look at them wrongly, they may directly pull out their guns! No way! Who told these people to live in these years?
Yin Hang patted Ilsa's shoulder and said, "You are here waiting for me to come back, and then we will go to see the place where the house was built"!
"No problem! Boss"! Ilsa agreed happily.
Yin Hang wasn't worried that he would run away, so he killed the rest of the whiskey at the moment, got up and pressed the cowboy hat, and walked out of the tavern. After that, he led the horse and walked to the police station.
It didn't take long for Marco to come back on horseback, and when he saw Yin Hang here, he opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Eastwood, you should have heard someone in the tavern just now that someone was going to duel, so you have to wait until I come back to do it!" ”!
