Red Dead Redemption Dawn

Chapter 274: hey~ little detective

On the other side, Javier asked about what Dutch said just now.

"Arthur, what did Dutch tell you to understand just now?"

"No." Arthur shook his head absentmindedly, but then he remembered Hosea and then asked, "Javier, is there any particular chaos in your hometown?"

"Ah~ it was a country ruled by a dictatorship. When I was young, I tried to rebel with some partners and overthrow the dictator's rule. But~ Obviously, I failed." Javier made no secret of his identity as a revolutionary.

"Dictatorship?" Arthur was somewhat incomprehensible.

"Yes, everyone has to follow the rules of one person. Where there is death, there is no freedom from hunger." Javier said with disgust.

Then Javier turned his head to Arthur and said, "Arthur, can you imagine it?"

"Huh?" Arthur looked bewildered.

"A country that can't even speak freely?" Javier said.

"That's really bad enough, my God, I don't even have the right to speak." Arthur thought for a while and sighed.

"Hehe, that's the reason why I want to overthrow him. I'm not the only one who has this idea. They are still working hard, but I believe they will succeed." Javier sincerely blessed.

"Probably, I don't know much either." Arthur had a half-understood.

"Arthur, what Dutch said understanding is my country?" Javier said with some clarity.

"Yep."

"Why, do we plan to go back to my side? This is not a good plan." Javier advised.

Unaware of Darchi's purpose, Javier naturally disapproved of returning to Mexico.

"That's all I mention." Arthur said perfunctorily.

"Hahaha~ the pub is here, let's go in and have a good drink, and I'll introduce my new 'friend' to you." Javier stopped the horse to the side of the road and winked at Arthur.

On the other side, Charles chatted with the uncle while sharpening his dagger, but from time to time he raised his head to pay attention to the movement of the Dutch tent in the distance.

About half an hour later, he saw Micah walking out of the Dutch tent. With some inexplicable excitement on his face, he quickly left the camp on horseback.

Charles pondered with his eyes, and then the uncle noticed Charles' eyes and said, "It seems that Dutch told Micah what to do."

"Yes." Charles nodded, but didn't say anything.

After waiting for a while, "I'll go and see if tomorrow's prey is caught there." After that, Charles got up and walked towards his horse.

Immediately afterwards, Charles also left the camp.

The uncle was drinking cheap bootleg wine, and said to himself, "This camp seems to be getting more and more chaotic."

At the far station of Emerald Town, the train started again, and John got off the train.

He looked at the place. A few miles away was Emerald Town, a fairly good town.

He looked at the time, it was almost six o'clock in the afternoon. He then put on his hat and rode his Arabian donkey towards the address Arthur had said.

At about 6:10, John stopped at the door of the bar at the address. There are already many people in the bar, and there is an endless stream of noise.

"Hello~ sir." As soon as he walked in, an alcoholic greeted John.

John also responded very politely. It seems that the happiness of this town is still very high.

It doesn't discriminate against you because you're a raw face.

John glanced at the small tavern. He didn't see Arthur, but saw Hosea sitting in the corner looking at the unknown information in his hand.

John walked up immediately.

"Hi~ How have you been recently?" John sat down and greeted the old liar in his fifties.

"Wait a minute, John." Hosea did not respond to him immediately, but continued to organize the information in his hand.

John didn't feel bored and asked for a bottle of whiskey here, and drank it to himself.

About ten minutes passed.

Hosea put away the information in his hand and said to John, "Sorry for keeping you waiting."

"It's okay, Arthur wrote me a letter in a hurry. What's the matter? Where's Arthur?" John went straight to the topic.

"He's back at the camp, and this time I want to call you over, John." Hosea also poured himself a glass of wine, and then raised it to meet John.

"So~ what's the matter this time?" John asked again.

"There are a few things, the first one, your news is right, Detective Pinkerton is indeed catching up with us." Hosea talked about the last news.

"It should be almost time to find us now." Hosea didn't have much emotion when he talked about this.

"Then what are you going to do?"

"We're going to leave here." Hosea poured another glass of wine for John and himself.

"It's New Hanover to leave Valentine?" John raised his glass and touched him again.

"Almost." Hosea said in a flat tone.

"Yes." John was not surprised when he heard it.

"Well, yes, we are still preparing, and this is about the second thing." Hosea raised his glass and touched him again.

"what?"

"Are you interested in taking over a batch of government bonds?" Hosea asked.

"Government bonds?" John asked again, of course he knew what bonds were.

A government bond is an IOU for the government to borrow money from the wealthy when the government is short of money for a while. Anyone can buy it. There are certain standards. The government promises to repurchase these bonds and pay the interest on these bonds within a certain period of time. The time span may be very long, but it must have sufficient value, and the interest rate will be higher than the interest rate of bank deposits.

"Yes, it's all bearer bonds. After half a year, every month you can get a portion of the interest back from the government, and after a year you can get all the principal back, which is pretty good. business,” Hosea explained.

"Well, what's its value?"

"Fifteen thousand dollars." Hosea looked around and said in a low voice.

"Then how much do you plan to sell?" The Van der Linde Gang are basically wanted criminals, and they are asked to collect a portion of the interest in the government of a designated city every month. This kind of thing is tantamount to throwing themselves into the net, so shooting as soon as possible is their only option.

"Seven thousand dollars, we'll give it to you." Hosea said his offer.

This price is quite reasonable. If it is recycling in the black market of Heishui Town, it is almost the same price. Because people who put out so much money at one time are basically big households, and such big households are not easy to find. They basically don't have anything to do with robbers, and if they don't have a certain strength, they may get into trouble.

But John does not have this problem, not to mention his various identities. In West Elizabeth alone, there is no such force willing to provoke him.

He is a person who can walk sideways in the whole of West Elizabeth, and he is also a legitimate businessman and a large farmer.

​​

So there is absolutely no problem with him taking this debt, but there is still a small problem. That is, the money that John brought this time is not much. He himself has nearly two thousand dollars. The account book sold for ten thousand. He gave Kenny ten thousand. He has more than four thousand left, and he is still two thousand. many dollars.

"The price is very reasonable, but I don't have that much cash on me right now. You know, no one will go out with thousands of dollars." John said.

"Of course I know, you can buy a part first. Then after you raise enough money, I'll give you the other part right away, how about that?" Of course Hosea thought about these questions.

"Okay, a good suggestion." John naturally agreed, although he really wanted to take all these things at once, but he did lack some money.

"Then how many days will it take you to get the money?" Hosea asked about the time.

"The day after tomorrow." John can get it when he goes back, and it's easy for Kenny to transfer two thousand dollars.

"Huh?" Hosea knew that John should have a lot of money. As a liar, he could easily see that the clothes on John's body were expensive, but he still didn't calculate that John could get seven thousand dollars in a day or two.

"Okay, John, I'll still stay here for two days, it's still this place," Hosea said.

"Yes." John nodded.

"How are Arthur and the others doing recently?" After talking about business, John began to talk about their current situation.

"Not bad, it will be even better the day after tomorrow after you buy this fund." Hosea's attitude towards John was also quite friendly.

"Hehe, of course." John also smiled and touched a few glasses with Hosea.

"John, I remember you once told Arthur that you could shelter some people in the gang?" Hosea and John mentioned this after a few drinks.

To this, John naturally nodded, "Yes, those who are not on the list, I can let them take care of them before you pick them up."

"Even if the reward is not high, I can give them a new identity, one without a criminal record." John didn't mind showing his strength to the old man in front of him.

"Wow~ I really should have someone investigate your identity sometimes~www.NovelMTL.com~ Your strength is obviously not as simple as a detective captain." He Xia said half-jokingly.

"You can also think that my boss is very influential, and I can speak in front of him." He certainly wouldn't worry about the Van der Linde gang's investigation.

The entire Blackwater town thought he was a member of Senator Edwin, not to mention the poor investigative abilities of the small gang of Van der Linde. If they can investigate anything, it will be a ghost, and they will not be fooled by others.

"So you need me to take those kind family members to hide for a while?" John asked again.

"Not for now, temporarily." Hosea shook his head.

"Tell Arthur and Dutch, I can help at any time." John said with a toast.

"I've decided, John, that this bond can be handed over to you now." Hosea took out a small leather bag from his pocket and handed it to John.

"?" John looked at him and raised his eyebrows.

"You are indeed a very good friend, and you should have our trust." Hosea said.

"The day after tomorrow, I'll still be here. You can just hand me the money when the time comes."

"Then I'm disrespectful." John was not polite and put away the small bag.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while in a pleasant atmosphere, and then John got up and rushed to the last train, back to Blackwater Town.

But at the station, John met an unexpected person.

This guy really looks like a big rat who looks down on everyone.

"Hey~ little detective." The man grinned when he saw John.
