Chapter 165 The Battle Begins
"You can't even eat enough, why do they do things for Josh?"
Seeing Fan Liang's initiative to ask, Clint immediately answered: "Josh signed a contract with them, including food and housing, and the wages are settled in one year. The wages are high, and they don't care about the indescribable food and housing."
"The reason why the wages are so high is that they are deducted from their food and lodging?" Fan Liang was a little hard to understand.
"That's right, but there are too few people who can figure out this joint. Some people even eat and drink desperately after getting their wages, fatten themselves up, and then go to the mine to mine. No matter what, that bastard Josh has no shortage of workers. Makes people angry!"
"If it were me, I would definitely not let my workers go to work without enough food. You can see how emaciated they are, it is really sympathetic." Clint emphasized again.
Just when they were about to leave, the miners were in a state of confusion. Some people fainted, their eyes were tightly closed, and there was white foam at the corners of their mouths.
"Can you still live?"
The cowboy on the horse didn't know who to ask, and no one went to check the health of the fainted miner.
No one answered, and the cowboy said to himself again: "It seems that he can't survive. Leave him alone and keep going. We have to get to the mine before it rains."
After speaking, the team speeded up.They ignored Clint and his party all the way, as if they didn't exist.
Clint was also not angry, he knew why the cowboys pretended not to see him, they were afraid of conflicts, and losing their lives was not fun.
The miners went to a small road, and the fainted miner twitched again and again, which was extremely miserable.
Clint paused intentionally for a while, but found that Fan Liang didn't make any movement. He thought that Fan Liang would get off his donkey and save the poor miner.
"If there's nothing else, we're leaving?" Clint said in a questioning tone, and his words were mainly for Fan Liang.
Of course Fan Liang understood the meaning of Clint's words, and he said calmly: "Let's go."
The sky became more gloomy.
Had the miners been left behind, they probably wouldn't have survived the night.
Fan Liang is not such an indifferent person. The reason why he was not saved was because he saw Sergeant Gion's little action. The sergeant secretly stuffed a few gold coins into the little policeman beside him, and then whispered a few words , he didn't hear the words clearly, but he could guess the general meaning.
Along the way, the little policeman did not leave the team, until he came to the manor, the little policeman galloped alone, and returned the same way, he was going to rescue the fainted miner.
"interesting."
Fan Liang stood on the second floor of the castle, leaning on the railing and looking into the distance, dust was flying in the distance.
……
took a shower.
After attending the dinner, Fan Liang officially became a member of the Henry family.
While the servants were preparing the dinner, Fan Liang wandered in the garden.
Floral fragrance.
Seeing Sergeant Gion with a strong figure, the corners of Fan Liang's mouth curled up, and he walked over with a faint smile.
"Sheriff Gion, you are very leisurely and elegant."
Hearing the sound, Sheriff Jiang turned around, smiled, and said, "Who wouldn't want to take a few more looks at such a beautiful scenery?"
"Don't you worry about your little policeman?" Fan Liang touched his chin and said, "In case he runs away with your money..."
Sergeant Gion's face changed drastically, he bent down to touch the gun, and made an offensive gesture.
"I advise you to save your time." Fan Liang said disapprovingly, "Your gun is not as fast as mine."
Sergeant Gion's face was cloudy and uncertain, and in the end, he gave up drawing his gun.
"What do you want?"
Fan Liang said with a hippie smile, "I can't figure out what you're asking. I'm just here to chat. What else can I do? What do you want from me?"
"Is there anything about me that you care about? Need to pay special attention to me?"
"Your attitude towards that miner surprised me. I thought big men like you didn't care about other people's lives."
"What about you? Why aren't you like this?" Sergeant Gion said, "Every time you shoot, aren't you mercilessly depriving others of their lives?"
"Okay." Fan Liang spread his hands, "If you want to criticize the other party, I don't think there is any need for us to chat."
"We really don't need to continue the chat." Sergeant Gion turned around and left, very cool.
"You're not afraid that I'll tell Mr. Clint what you've done?"
Sergeant Gion stopped in his tracks.
"I guess he doesn't like to see a sheriff with a sense of justice in his heart, but prefers to see someone who is in the same boat as him, and he has an official identity in whatever he does."
"What on earth do you want? Are you threatening me?" Sergeant Gion's eyes were cold.
"Didn't I already tell you?" Fan Liang shrugged and said, "I just want to talk to you."
"Okay, what do you want to talk about?" Sergeant Gion was still rude.
"Given your indifferent attitude, I'm not in the mood to talk anymore."
Fan Liang turned around and left, which was unpredictable.
Watching Fan Liang's back gradually drifting away, Sergeant Ji Ang finally couldn't help shouting: "Hey, will you tell me about me?"
Fan Lianggao raised his hand and waved it.
……
Less gossip.
Nothing dramatic happened at the dinner, everything was normal, and it is worth mentioning that the food was delicious.
A few days after the dinner, Fan Liang was free, and there was no information about the task trigger, so he became bored.He was bubbling around in the castle, but it was much more exciting outside. After the calm before the storm, the Henry family and the Colin family finally fought.
Since the war, Vittoria has been locked in the house. For the sake of her safety, Clint does not allow her to take half a step out of the door.As for Fan Liang, he stood guard outside the door. Besides him, there were two other cowboys, not doubting his strength, but having two more pairs of eyes, which could better prevent Vittoria from making mistakes.
On this day, after Clint came down from the battlefield and lay down in the bedroom, before he had time to enjoy a cup of coffee, a terrible situation happened that made him tremble all over.
Jack sneaked into the battlefield, but was shot in the chest, and now he was carried back on a stretcher, just outside the manor.
Hearing the news brought by the servant, a whole cup of coffee was poured on Clint. With the sound of the coffee cup breaking, Clint ran out of the castle like crazy, almost colliding with the person who was carrying Jack.
Jack was covered in blood, and there were balls of blood-soaked gauze on his chest.
The wound was not in one place, and the bleeding had not stopped.
The vigorous Jack's face was pale and bloodless at the moment, and his lips seemed to be pasted with white paper, which made people feel flustered.
"Save him! Save him!"
Clint grabbed Holden, the personal doctor who came over. He usually lived in the castle and was the most skilled doctor in the surrounding towns.
Horton squatted beside Jack and took away the gauze to take a look at the wound, but blood gushed up like a fountain. He hurriedly pressed the wound, his eyes widened, and he took deep breaths.
What if he can't save Jack?
