As for the cause of Henry's death, Glass did not pursue it.

It was settled, but everyone knew that they would never go back to the way they were.

There was no disbandment, it was entirely because the fur was still in the reserve, and everyone didn't get a share of the money.

Over the next few days, Glass began to gather men in preparation for their return to the reserve.

They were to gather ten men and twenty horses and brave the bitter cold to go to the reserve when the next heavy snow came.

At this time, the Cree should have dispersed, and if the action went well, it would only take a month for a round trip, and the money would be distributed before the arrival of spring.

After three days of preparation, the team set off on the fourth day.

This time, Glass led the team, accompanied by Lin Yao and Taylor, while Hawke and William were left behind to watch the family.

The accompanying party also included ten hired men with innocent backgrounds and no bad habits, who used to transport twenty bundles of furs that had been hidden.

The plan went well, there were no encounters with the Cree along the way, and there were no surprises.

Like an outing, they simply and easily got the furs and returned to Malta City without any problems.

It only took twenty-seven days to go back and forth.

Back in town, Taylor quickly found a buyer.

Twenty bundles of rare animal skins were sold for a total of 21,000 dollars, and after removing the cost of travel and labor, each received 2,000 dollars.

Glass was very trustworthy, he didn't ask for Hawk's share.

He knew that Hawke's survival was entirely due to Lin Yao and the others, and if he was sharing a share of the money, he wouldn't know what to do.

Hawke's $2,000, Glass let Lin Yao and the three of them split.

Among them, Lin Yao shared 600 US dollars, and Taylor's uncle and nephew each shared 700.

The reason why he was the least was because Taylor's uncle and nephew were carrying the impaired Hawk all the way, so Lin Yao had no objection to this division.

"We're going back to our hometown, and with this money, we can buy a shop and do some small business."

After dividing the money, Uncle Taylor's nephew expressed his intentions, and also asked Lin Yao and the others, "What about you, what are your plans?" ”

"Hawke and I are going to stay, Malta City looks pretty good, as wilderness hunters with no permanent home, we should find a place to make a home, after all, Hawke is not too young."

Glass glanced at Hawke, a doting look in his eyes.

In fact, Hawke is not his biological son, and Glass was injured during a wilderness exploration and was rescued by Hawke's mother.

At the time, Hawke was only four years old, and Glass chose to stay and live with the woman.

So he became Hawke's father, and as for Hawke's biological father, he died in the local ethnic conflict, and after a dozen years, it was time for Hawke to marry and have children.

"You're right, the children have grown up, and I should find a wife for William when I go back."

Taylor rubbed William's head, and then asked Lin Yao, "What about you, where are you going?" ”

"Let's go home first, I haven't been back in a few years, go back and see how the house is doing. In the future, I heard that some western towns are recruiting people, and if they go, they will give 30 acres of land plus three years of commercial tax exemption, so I may go there and look for some small way to make a fortune. ”

Lin Yao's thoughts have not changed, since he has come to this world, he has to go through it wonderfully.

He wants to become a rich man, make a lot of money, and enjoy the fun that money brings.

If he could, he also wanted to become a household name, and what people want in this life is nothing more than money, power, and honor.

Thinking that he could leave a strong mark on history, Lin Yao felt secretly refreshed.

"Good idea, then let's separate!"

Taylor waved at everyone and took his nephew, William, away.

Glass watched Taylor's uncle and nephew go away, and also said goodbye to Lin Yao: "Good luck!" ”

"You too!"

Lin Yao nodded, waved his hand to Hawke, and said, "Goodbye Hawke!" ”

Turn around and leave freely.

There is no banquet in the world that will not be dispersed, and this is how it originates and falls.

Lin Yao was carrying his bags, and he was going to go home to see how his parents were doing.

Since he took over this body, he should also take some responsibility.

He was now a wealthy man, and he had received two thousand six hundred dollars from the sale of his furs, which, together with his own hundred dollars, gave him a huge sum of two thousand seven hundred dollars.

In 1888, no, Christmas has passed, it should be 1889.

$2,700 in 1889, equivalent to $270,000 for later generations.

Even for middle-class families in the 21st century, it is not easy to save this money.

According to official statistics, in the United States in the 21st century, less than 1 percent of households have $300,000 in savings.

"Before I go home, I have to change my equipment first, as the saying goes: wealth does not return to the hometown, just like a night walk in brocade."

"I haven't been back for a few years, there must be a lot of people who watch jokes, and this trip may be the last time I go to see my predecessor's parents in my life, and there is no reason to lose face to him."

Lin Yao definitely wants to go back, this is the last obsession of the predecessor.

Having made up his mind, Lin Yao went to the tailor's shop.

After a long time of choosing, he fell in love with a winter coat called the Black Earl.

The coat is made of black bear skin, which is warm and atmospheric.

This outfit also comes with a matching valley brimmed hat, a red buck jacket, saddle jeans, and a pair of long leather boots with red stripes.

After changing his clothes, he was in a lot of energy.

Sure enough, people rely on clothes and horses to saddle, and look at themselves in the mirror, a bit like the famous fast gunslinger in Western movies.

When you go out and look at others, the one who can afford to wear this dress can't be a little cowboy who can't afford to eat.

"How much?"

Lin Yao turned around and asked.

The boss replied, "The complete Black Earl suit, the full set is $312." ”

It's really expensive, the salary of ordinary people is only 30 yuan these days, and the salary of a dress for a year is gone.

Lin Yao still bought it, who made him like it.

Money is a very external thing, you don't bring it in life, you don't bring it in death, and investing in yourself is always the most profitable.

"I want this set, remember to add spurs to my boots, and give me a few more pairs of socks."

"By the way, I want another Musketeer suit, $120 a set, the kind that comes with the Musketeer's fingerless gloves, which I'm going to use to change."

Lin Yao said what he asked for and handed over five hundred dollars.

Half an hour later, refreshed, he left the tailor's shop and walked into the weapons shop not far away.

He needed a revolver, and the Colt M1883 met his requirements.

It is a single-action revolver with a performance load of six rounds at a time, and one shot requires a single trigger move.

On the market, this is the best pistol sold, divided into three versions, cavalry version, army version, and navy version.

Lin Yao chose the standard version of the army, which has a shorter barrel and is more conducive to rapid fire when drawing a gun.

Most of the western cowboys in the movie use this kind of pistol, including the famous western boy.

He once used a Colt M1883 on a street to kill four gunmen who were seeking revenge on him.

As for the rifle, Lin Yao did not buy it again.

He had a gold version of the Carcano, a gun that outperformed most rifles on the market, and there was no better weapon in Malta City.

On the contrary, it was a horse, and Lin Yao needed to buy one.

Horses are the main means of transportation at this stage, and horses in the United States can get on trains, which makes a good horse in short supply.

Lin Yao fell in love with a black Hungarian thoroughbred, and the boss asked him for $480, and an additional $20 for a cavalry saddle.

He did not refuse, Malta City is a northern city, and the price of horses here is cheaper than in the west.

In the western part of the country where cowboys are crowded, a solid-colored Hungarian thoroughbred doesn't have to think about it for $520.

After a busy time, Lin Yao's appearance changed greatly.

At this time, he was wearing a black bearskin coat with a bullet chain around his waist, a rifle on his back, and a revolver stuck in his waist.

Coupled with the pure-blooded war horse under his crotch and the black valley brimmed hat on his head, just in terms of appearance, anyone who sees it will think that he is a famous gunman.

Walking on the street in this dress, ordinary people don't dare to provoke you at all.

Of course, there may also be vicious people who think you are a fat sheep.

"It's really a lot of money, and a thousand dollars is gone casually!"

Lin Yao looked at his shrunken wallet, and with the remaining 1,700 dollars, he stepped on the train back to Texas.

There, there is a small town called Stone Town, which is the hometown of the predecessor.
