Pete, the fat manager, was lying on the bed and snorting, and Teresa checked it.

One of the forearms was broken, and the neck was broken.

This fat man is really rough and thick-skinned, and he was beaten by a group of people, and his ribs were not broken.

But the broken and swollen places are not missing at all.

Teresa treated his wounds, then found some planks, fixed his neck and arms, and hung them with bandages.

The fat man's originally rounded body appeared thicker.

As for the others, they all had more or less soft tissue contusions, and the worst was the old man Schultz, who was first smashed half to death by engineer Jackson with a wrench a few days ago, and then beaten again today.

"I,,I'm looking for,,Looking for the person in charge of security in the jurisdiction here." Pete's swollen lips closed and he said weakly.

"Huh? What are you looking for from me? Chen Jianqiu sat on the edge of the fat man's bed, leaned down, and listened.

"You ,,, why don't you arrest those people outside! You, you obviously have a gun! The fat man's fingers could still move, pointing at Chen Jianqiu's waist.

"I've got only six bullets, man." Chen Jianqiu spread his hands and said.

"You, you are derelict in your duties, I want to find, find the mayor of this town!" Pete continued to say with difficulty.

"The mayor is also me for the time being, so let's talk about something directly." Chen Jianqiu patted Pete's shoulder, "It's incumbent." ”

Pete was so angry that he almost didn't catch his breath.

Chen Jianqiu patted his chest again: "That's it, it's too unsafe here, I'd better send someone to send you back." ”

He unhurriedly took out another piece of paper: "Today's medical expenses are troublesome to remember." Don't worry, don't worry about the money you owe, I won't wait for the money to be used. ”

Pete closed his eyes and nodded, looking untouchable.

A few days later, a horse-drawn carriage slowly pulled out of Roswell.

Hanif rode in front of the horse, while Donnie sat in the driver's seat of the carriage behind.

On the horse-drawn carriage sat the experts of the assessment team.

As for Manager Pete, he lay motionless in the middle of the experts, looking at the clear blue sky, without saying a word.

After sending away the assessment team, Chen Jianqiu took Camilla, Li Sifu and Sean to a cave where the gold was hidden.

The waterfall is still the waterfall, and the lake is still the lake.

"Boss, what is this bucket of live rabbits for?" Sean asked Chen Jianqiu a little puzzled.

On the flatbed truck behind Li Sifu, there was an iron bucket, which was originally used by Chen Jianqiu and them to transport crude oil samples before, and when they came back, it was filled with some daily necessities and grain.

Chen Jianqiu asked the bird to go to the forest to the south to trap some live rabbits, then threw the rabbits into the bucket and brought them over.

"Stop talking nonsense, dig a hole." Chen Jianqiu jumped off his horse, and then pulled out his shovel from the back of the cart.

Several people spent the afternoon digging a large pit more than three meters deep on the edge of the lake, straight up and down.

If you dig a little deeper, I'm afraid that the wall of this pit will collapse first.

Chen Jianqiu asked them to put the rabbits in the bucket into the pit, and then lit a bonfire next to the pit.

They hid about a hundred meters from the lake. Quietly waiting for the night to fall.

After dark, there was a sound on the surface of the water, and a pair of scarlet eyes appeared again in the night.

The rabbits in the pit also felt the danger approaching, and they scurried around in the hole, digging the dirt in the pit with their feet.

The attack began, and the first Chupacabra spotted the rabbits, which jumped into the pit and bit the neck of one of the rabbits.

The monsters behind also followed, jumping into the pit.

Then, they found themselves no longer able to climb to the top of the pit.

"It's finished." Chen Jianqiu clapped his hands.

After the last monster jumped in, he led the others to the edge of the pit.

At the bottom of the pit were crawling densely with those half-human-high monsters, one lying on top of the other.

Those close to the edge of the pit tried to climb up with their forelimbs pulling at the wall of the pit, but their lower bodies were grabbed by their companions, unable to move, and they looked like they were going to die together.

These monsters, like some people, walk on two legs, and have a habit of sucking blood, and even the habit of pit their companions is like a spirit.

"Push the kerosene over." Chen Jianqiu shouted at Li Sifu.

Li Sifu returned to the car, rolled another bucket of kerosene down, and pushed it to the edge of the pit.

They poured a whole barrel of kerosene into the pit.

Chen Jianqiu picked up a burning firewood from the campfire next to him and threw it into the pit.

For a moment, the fire was blazing, and the air was filled with the strange smell of burnt protein.

These monsters may not exist in this world in the first place, but now, it is better to let them return to the flames.

This time they took a chest of gold.

Even so, Chen Jianqiu still didn't touch the bottom of the artificial lake.

Chen Jianqiu remelted the gold and turned it into nuggets.

Some of the nuggets were quickly sent to the steward of Astor in Santa Fe, and the contract for the change of ownership of the land around Roswell came into effect.

Chen Jianqiu became the owner of that large piece of land.

The residential area of New Roswell is being built in an orderly manner.

The building materials are basically locally sourced, and the forests in the mountains to the south are not as dense as those in the north, but they still provide a lot of wood.

In addition to those from Niu San, Zhang Danian continuously sent some bricklayers and carpenters to come over.

Once Chen Jianqiu dangled to the edge of the town, he saw several master bricklayers taking clay and starting to build the wall.

He looked at the land to the south of the town, where there were intermittent pastures that could not be connected.

After a while, it is necessary to find a way to solve the problem of irrigation, but it is really not possible, and the cattle and sheep have to find a way to raise them first.

In the days after Christmas, another incident happened.

The Brownintos sent the Montrose gun shop its year-end share and a shipment of guns and ammunition.

According to Browning, this year's turnover is quite impressive, and after deducting the salaries paid to the bodyguards provided by Zhang Danian, there is still a lot of profit.

He will come to Roswell after a while to talk to Chen Jianqiu about the development of the gun shop, and stop by to see old friends.

However, in fact, Chen Jianqiu is most concerned about the oil well, and even more than the oil well.

It's definitely not okay to sit and eat.

In mid-January, Abiot finally brought news about this, along with Scott's displeasure.

Standard Oil finally decided to build a refinery here to welcome the birth of their trust, and the first construction team and armed plant escort team are expected to arrive in early February.

Scott was furious that they had succeeded in extracting oil in New Mexico, and he had thought that Chen Jianqiu should have succeeded in getting the gang out of Roswell by the end of last year.

Chen Jianqiu didn't care about Scott's anger at all, and what interested him was another reason for Scott's anger.

It is said that Leonard, the upstart in Lincolnshire, has been linked to Standard Oil.
