447 people don't talk much
Chu Xiangxiang comforted Simon and the others, and then said with a smile, "This month's bonus is five times the salary." ”
After hearing this, Simon and the others couldn't help but smile with surprise on their faces.
Although protecting employers has always been a tradition of acquiescence of cowboys, it is actually a matter of delaying the rescue or really protecting the employer, depending on whether the employer treats the cowboys well on weekdays.
However, high wages are also an important prerequisite for cowboys to be willing to embrace and protect their employers.
Chu Xiangqian naturally valued Simon and the others very much, and rushed over to support, as for the money, he didn't make money quickly anyway.
And when it was time to spend, Chu Xiangqian was not stingy.
Arrange 8 cowboys, go back with guns to lead the dogs, and guard the periphery of the manor, Chu Qianqian looked at the servants who dared to come out at this time.
After thinking about it, he said, "If someone wants to resign, I will give you 2 years' salary as a confidentiality fee."
If you stay, your salary will increase by 30% in the future. ”
A few maids, you look at me, I'll look at you, and soon someone offered to stay.
Although two years' salary is not small, a 30% increase in wages will make a profit for ten or thirty years.
And although he was frightened this time, in fact, the ace agent discovered the enemy very early, and when he held the main building, he also killed 3 enemies.
Chu Xiangqian also fought back quickly, and in the presence of snipers, the remaining mafia did not have the heart to take hostages.
Several servants hid in the room on the second floor, listening to the gunshots, although they were afraid, they did not face the danger, and their thoughts of resignation were naturally extinguished by Chu Xiangqian's money offensive.
Seeing that no one was leaving, Chu Qianqian looked at Arthur, "Tomorrow you will discuss by yourself where to buy a house in London." I'll give you an apartment for each of you. ”
Arthur was stunned for a moment, and then someone swallowed.
Even a better apartment in the East End costs a few thousand pounds.
Changing to an apartment in the West End, or even around Hyde Park, can cost £20,000 or £30,000 to say the least.
The sum of the four people is 100,000 pounds, and if you convert it into a salary, even if the salary of the ace agent is high enough, and there is a subsidy for being appointed as a royal guard.
But it's only four or five thousand a year.
Twenty or thirty thousand pounds would have to go five or six years without food or drink to save enough money.
If you add the expenses, it will take 10 years to buy an apartment next to the Hyde apartment.
Chu Qianqian saw that Arthur and the four were a little overwhelmed, and after thinking about it, he simply said to Margaret, "My dear, this matter is left to you, just at Kensington Palace, not far from our home on Garden Street, buy 4 larger apartments." ”
Margaret nodded hurriedly, in her heart, Arthur and the others were the lifesavers of herself and her sweetheart tonight.
More than 100,000 or 200,000 pounds is a lot, but the money must be spent.
Otherwise, who would be willing to actively and risking death to protect themselves and their future children in the future?
And Chu Xiangqian's statement about buying a house near Garden Street once again surprised Arthur and others and didn't know what to say.
An apartment costs 40,000 or 50,000 pounds, to say the least, and then I feel that everything I have done is worth it.
The few maids who stayed, as well as Simon and the other four cowboys, were envious in their hearts.
At the same time, I also feel that serving Chu Xiangqian and Margaret not only has face, but also has a future.
After calming down the people around him, Chu looked forward at his watch, "It's late, you guys are arranging to be on duty in batches, and the maids will prepare supper for the guards and cowboys before going to bed."
If there is anything, we will talk about it tomorrow. ”
Everyone nodded busily, and with the blessing of money, everyone was full of energy.
However, during the interrogation of the two mafias, Simon walked up to Arthur and whispered, "Sir, when the interrogation is over, can you hand them over to us?" ”
Arthur was stunned for a moment, and then saw from Simon's eyes that this guy wanted to kill the two of them with his own hands.
Then I remembered some rumors I had heard.
One or two hundred years ago, the west was still a wilderness, not only with wild beasts and natural disasters, but also bandits and murderers ravaged the countryside.
They also had to face a counterattack by the Indians in order to protect their land.
It can be said that in addition to the history of blood and tears that slaughtered the Indians, the history of the West is also the history of the pioneers of white North Americans.
Under such difficult conditions, cowboys in Western Ranches have long formed a lot of unwritten rules.
Arthur knew that some of the cowboys in the western ranches were still retained, and if they wanted to be their own, they had to do something out of the ordinary.
To put it bluntly, it has the same meaning as the Celestial Empire's name petition.
In the Yellowstone ranch, cowboy killings are commonplace.
And if you want to join the Yellowstone Ranch and get the approval of the other cowboys on the ranch, you not only have to put a mark on your chest, but you also have to kill people with a gun if necessary.
Those temporarily hired cowboys, who have worked for several years and have not been recognized by the ranch, and know some secrets of the ranch, if they want to leave, they will be killed by the ranch people.
It can be said that Yellowstone Ranch is the true portrayal of western ranches and cowboys.
While Arthur nodded, he also wanted to see what Simon and the others wanted to do.
Interrogating the mafia who was just knocked out didn't take much effort from Arthur and others.
There was a companion who had broken his hand and foot, and was now half dead, as an example, and after just a few scares, the man told him all he knew.
Simon, Arthur and others frowned at the same time, but they didn't expect it to be the mafia in Los Angeles.
And the dozen or so people who attacked this time were all members of the horse team who had approached the road from the ranch canyon before.
Listening to this man's meaning, in a valley five or six kilometers north of the canyon, is the farm where they grow tobacco.
There are still a few people left over there.
Simon looked at Arthur, "Do you want to rush over overnight and kill all of them?" ”
Arthur thought for a moment and said to his two companions, "Go ahead." ”
For ace agents, jungle warfare is just one of the basic training subjects, and the two people Arthur said are the two of their four-person squad that are the best at field combat.
Simon hurriedly said to Hans and the other cowboy, "You guys go over and help." ”
Hans nodded, but before leaving, he looked at the half-dead mafia.
Seeing Simon nod, Hans drew the knife from his waist and dragged the wounded man into the darkness.
It wasn't long before a cry of pain was heard, and another cowboy named by Simon drew his knife and walked into the night when Hans returned, leaving one of his ears still on the ground.
The four of Arthur knew at a glance that everyone must have stabbed the captive to test whether his companions were in the same league as the others.
They all have a handle in their hands, and if they are caught by the police, no one will be a traitor.
At the same time, he also deliberately did it for himself and others, and at the same time told Chu to see it to the ranch owner.
Wait for the 12 cowboys, including Simon, all of them to be on that person, and come back with something cut.
And Mina and Kelly are even more ruthless, one holding the balls and the bird, and the other holding a scalp bigger than a slap and still on the ground.
And not only the mafia that is still alive is scared silly.
Arthur, Simon and other men, when they looked at Mina and Kelly, their eyes were also a little evasive.
The woman in the dark path went crazy, it was really not ordinary ruthless.
However, this also made everyone completely recognize Mina and Kelly, and Chu Xiangqian had already seen all this through the.
Secretly said that he should probably pay more attention to these two cowgirls.
Men have a lot of desires and ambitions, and there are more people who can't see themselves clearly, but women who don't have much insight are different.
They rarely betray because of ambition.
However, if such a woman does appear, the destructive power is often greater than that of a man.
The night passed quickly, Chu Xiangqian didn't think about calling the police, and the people in the ranch didn't think about calling the police either.
But when Arthur's men and Hans and two other cowboys went to the canyon, they inevitably encountered 7 policemen including Will.
Naturally, the four Hans didn't believe Will and the other cops, but they eventually brought Will and Gogan with them.
The next morning, Chu Xiangqian woke up and saw that Margaret in his arms was still asleep, and couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.
After this chick calmed down last night, it was called a madness.
I had been exhausted all the time, so I muttered and fell asleep on Chu Xiangqian.
Chu Xiangqian knew that this was a side effect of being extremely afraid, so he naturally wouldn't patronize his comfort.
When Margaret fell asleep, she gently put her on the bed and hugged her, but her attention was always on the.
Until around 4 a.m., it was determined that there would be no second group of intruders.
Then I saw Hans and the others through the, killed all the people in the tobacco farm on the other side of the canyon, and were walking towards the pasture, so I closed my eyes and rested.
After going downstairs, Arthur walked over briskly and whispered a report on the aftermath of last night.
Although Chu Xiangqian had known it for a long time, he also listened carefully.
Then he pretended to be surprised and asked, "Are you serious?" ”
Arthur nodded, and Chu Xiangqian pretended to say, "It seems that Simon and these people are trustworthy." ”
Arthur nodded again, everything last night really showed that the cowboys on the ranch could be trusted.
Otherwise, if you kill the wounded, you won't do it in front of yourself and the other four agents.
To make it clear is to tell Chu Xiangqian that they and the ranch are one.
As for Sheriff Will and Deputy Sheriff Gougen, the two followed them to the tobacco farm to clear out the remaining tobacco merchants, which can be regarded as a manifestation of their attitude.
"What about the mafia member who is still alive?"
Arthur frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Simon and I meant to find a place to bury the man, or still be in the forest on the other side of the canyon.
In less than a day or two, it will be disposed of by the beasts. ”
Chu nodded forward, then remembered Will and Gao Gen, "The two sheriffs don't agree?" ”
Arthur shook his head, "What they mean is that they can put people back and bring a letter, and even the cattle and sheep produced by the ranch in the future can be sold to the mafia family in Los Angeles." ”
As soon as Chu Xiangqian heard it, he knew that Will's proposal was actually more secure.
If the people of Los Angeles were willing to stop pursuing the ranch for the sake of business, it would be a good thing for a rancher to kill a dozen of them.
If you don't agree, let one go back, and the opponent's strength will not be strong.
As for the information of the ranch, there are, and if the sneak attack fails, there is a high probability that it will be ambushed by itself.
When the time comes, if you sneak up on the vehicles with the MG42 machine gun, you can get rid of the people in the two cars with one drum.
And where you have a wide field of vision, you have a sniper rifle in hand, and one shot at a time is no different from shooting a target.
As for witnessing Simon and others dismembering the body, only eyewitnesses cannot be convicted.
The corpse was thrown into the mountain, and it was only one night, and only the bones were left for storage.
In this era, there was no DNA test, and it was impossible to tell who this person was, so naturally it was impossible to determine who died.
In addition, Chu Xiangqian is not short of money, finding a good lawyer, and even a lawsuit by the lawyer team, this kind of case with an incomplete chain of evidence is simply sending money to the lawyer.
And Arthur and Simon's meaning is also very simple, since they have entered the ranch, there is no need to talk about this matter at all, and the counter-killing is in the past.
Maybe the four Arthurs have already saved their minds because of the delivery of the apartment last night, and they will go to kill the mafia leader and core members tonight.
After the first war, he earned forty or fifty thousand pounds, and the ace killer of this year is almost at this price.
As for Chu Xiangqian, he naturally didn't think about reconciliation.
But he was still a little worried about the mafia committee.
Don't look at the various families, the braincases that are often broken are broken, but when it comes to external issues, they often put aside contradictions and unite with the outside world.
Otherwise, New York, one of the largest cities in the United States, would not have been firmly controlled by the five major families for decades.
It wasn't until he lost his opponent and became a thorn in the side of the official of the United States that he was beaten and slowly lost his dominance.
But even so, it took the FBI twenty or thirty years to remove the influence of the five major families before it really defeated them.
I don't know how many vendettas and intrigues I have experienced during this period, but just thinking about it will show how bloody it is.
However, a club is a club, and although there are no fewer smart people, they also know that if they are too strong, they will attract the attention of the authorities.
But in the face of money and interests, there are really few people who know how to make trade-offs.
Sometimes being the first is not necessarily a good thing.
However, after thinking about it, in the position of the leader of the gang, if you don't enter, you will die.
A lot of times it's already involuntarily.
If you want to be a serious businessman, no matter whether the politician is willing or not, other competitors and past enemies will not let you go.
Even your subordinates will think that you are old and weak, and want to replace you.
But once you reach your heyday, even if you sponsor a lot of politicians, or even catch the handle of politicians, you still can't fight the entire United States.
Not to mention that there is no shortage of opponents for politicians on your side.
When someone wants to deal with them, the first person to be defeated is the owner behind them.
And the gangsters have become, the easiest targets to defeat and gain popular hearts and prestige.
Chu lit a cigar forward, thought for a while, and then said with a light in his eyes, "Inform the pro-England media in Santa Barbara County and Los Angeles."
Ideally, an English merchant and controlled media would come to the ranch to interview Margaret.
I will write Margaret's name in the fund that holds the ranch. From now on, this ranch will be her and I will be the joint property, and the beneficiaries will be only me and her, as well as our children. ”
Arthur was stunned for a moment, and thought for more than ten seconds before he understood what Chu Xiangqian meant.
HESITATED FOR A FEW SECONDS AND SAID, "SIR, I, I HAVE TO ASK YOUR MAJESTY WHAT HE MEANT." ”
