Chapter 40: He can't be the leader

Angelo's ranch is north of Denver, about twenty miles away. The land is flat and there is a small river passing by, which can be said to be rich in water and plants... Angelo built a small villa here, and often came to live there for a while when he was idle. Every time he came to see the cattle, sheep and horses in the ranch, he felt happy.

But this time after coming to his own ranch, Angelo couldn't be happy.

"Those are my property, my property..." Angelo had been crying for almost half an hour in the stables of the ranch, but the people around him were not sympathetic after hearing his mourning, but instead they all showed an angry look.

"I said, boss, since it is your property, why don't you protect us, but you deceived us... God, if it weren't for you, we would have driven away those yellow people, and maybe even arrested them." A white man dressed in a cowboy moved his butt to avoid having too much contact with the horse manure next to him, but he could only move a little... Because, at this moment, everyone tied to the stables tied their hands behind their backs and then fixed on a beam close to the ground. So, they can only sit on the ground now, not to mention moving too much, they can't even stand up.

"These Chinese must be all habitual bandits. God, when did such a group of people appear in Denver? They even know how to tie their thumbs up... What did they think of it?" Another cowboy couldn't help but scream. The thumbs up were tied up, and the flexibility of the hand was completely limited. Not to mention that everyone was still tied backwards at this moment, even if they tied them in front, they could not untie the rope on their hands.

"When I am free, I must let these people taste my power. How dare they tie me up? These hateful people, they dare to kidnap me, Mr. Las..." Another cowboy shouted.

"These guys are the Chinese laborers in Denver!" Ilger sat next to Angelo. The old man was a little gloating now. Angelo thought that the Chinese would still go to his ranch, but the fact is that it was enough for them to come to this ranch. Now, although everyone has been arrested, it is obvious that the Chinese journey has ended here, at least temporarily, which means that his property has been preserved, at least, not as unlucky as Angelo. So, when I think of this, seeing the mournful face of this fat man who always relies on his power and his financial strength, Ilger couldn't help but ignore the fact that he was also "kidnapped" and wanted to laugh.

"Those Chinese laborers?" The cowboys on the ranch were obviously surprised: "What happened? I remember these Chinese people were honest, even timid, how dare they do such things?"

"Well... I think you should ask your boss, he should be very clear about this matter." Ilge curled his lips and said.

"Enough, Ilge, do you think I'm not unlucky enough?" Angelo couldn't help but angrily.

"Didn't this cause you yourself? God, more than 70 people were killed in those Chinese... more than 70!" Irge sighed, as if he was compassionate.

"More than 70 Chinese people were killed?" The cowboys around were shocked. More than 70 were people, not cows or sheep. In the sparsely populated country of the United States, especially in the west, which had just been developed for a few years, more than 70 people, that might be the entire population of a small town!

"Although I don't like those Chinese people very much, yes, what's going on?" The cowboy who just complained to Angelo couldn't help but ask Ilger again. The ranch was far away from the city. Even if their ranch was not far from Denver, as the staff of the ranch, they usually live here for a long time. Therefore, they generally know very little about what happened in the city, and naturally they don't know much about what happened a few days ago. So, with his words, the others turned around... The cowboys felt an inexplicable fear. More than 70 Chinese were killed, but now they were all in the hands of a group of Chinese people... What would happen? How would those Chinese treat them? The "Mr. Russ" who just shouted that the Chinese workers wanted to taste their own amazing face was even more earthy and could not say a word.

"This starts with a riot a few days ago..." Ilger blinked his small eyes after his lenses and said seriously.

"I'm not relieved!"

"You have to let go if you don't feel at ease."

As at the beginning, Guo Jinzhang and Li Asheng couldn't talk about it together... When the "captives" in the stable were learning the ins and outs of things in Irge's explanation, the two of them were once again in a quarrel.

"My surname is Guo, half of our people have died. This is more than seventy lives." Li Asheng shouted, "More than seventy people have left, and there is no trace of the other one hundred, and only the more than two hundred people hiding in the pasture. If you don't get them back quickly, do you want them to be slaughtered by those white people, right?"

"But what's the use of going now?" Guo Jinzhang also refused to give in. "If that Gaimon really wanted to steal money and kill people, can you save them if you go now? You will only fall into a trap that others have already set up... But if that Gaimon is fine, why did you call those more than 200 people over? More than 70 or 80 miles away, let everyone come and die with you?"

"What's the matter of dying? I have a gun to protect them." Li Asheng said angrily.

"Protect it," Guo Jinzhang also shouted: "Who can you protect less than ten people, less than thirty guns? Do you think those white people are really easy to deal with? If that's the case, those Indians would have to be driven to the reserve by them, and they couldn't even say anything? They all know how to ride horses and shoot arrows, and the number of people is tens of thousands, how many times better than you?"

"That's different!"

"It's a big deal!" Guo Jinzhang cursed again, "Nine people, small targets, quick reactions, and whenever there is something wrong, they can turn around and leave. But what about two hundred people? Those white people catch up, how many can we care about? Tell me!"

"To put it bluntly, you are just timid and afraid of those white people..." Li Asheng pointed at him and shouted.

"I'm afraid? If I'm afraid, I'll still reach this point. I've long since he was hanged in downtown Denver? I'm afraid? If I'm afraid, I'll run out of prison and run out, and I'll dare to blow up his police station and steal their mayor?" Guo Jinzhang said annoyed.

"You have the face to say, "You run away, why are you going to burn the police station and rob the mayor? Even if you burn the police station and rob the mayor, you run away...why are you coming back? After all, aren't all this done by you?" Li Asheng said angrily.

"I admit that it was because of my recklessness that led to the consequences today. I have nothing to say, but the current situation is that we are not suitable to bring everyone together, that is really causing trouble for everyone, do you understand?" Guo Jinzhang was a little weak. Because Li Asheng was talking about the facts. No matter what, the Chinese workers were dragged down to this point, a large part of the responsibility was because of him, even if he was to save his life.

"What's causing trouble? There are cars and horses in this ranch now. Everyone gets together. Whenever something goes wrong, they will run on the horse. What are you afraid of?" Li Asheng said again.

"Can you ride those white people?" Guo Jinzhang asked back.

"I run away first, I don't believe they can catch up with you." Li Asheng said.

"Then try it, run away first, I'll chase you behind." Qian Shide had walked to the two of them at some point, glanced at them, and said to Li Asheng quietly: "But before the trial, I have to ask, what if I catch up? At that time, more than two hundred people were piled together, how many deaths would you have to die? For so many lives, will you compensate?"

"Uncle Qian, what do you mean?" Li Asheng asked angrily. Along the way, whenever he had a dispute with Guo Jinzhang, Qian Shide almost stood on Guo Jinzhang's side, which made him extremely dissatisfied. Therefore, naturally, he lacked a lot of respect for Qian Shide.

"It's not interesting. I just think Jin Zhang is right, you are wrong." Qian Shide glanced around, and everyone else was still busy. "Asheng, you kid like to show off. I've seen it since the day I came to Denver... Now that the trouble is so great, you think Jin Zhang steals your limelight and makes you unable to live a stable life, so you are targeting Jin Zhang everywhere, right?"

"I don't mean that..." Li Asheng turned his head and denied it.

"It's boring to pretend like this." Qian Shide shook his head, "A man, you have to admit whatever you think. Do you really think that I and Uncle Hou are dizzy and can't tell anything?"

"Uncle Qian..."

"Uncle Qian, I'm not done yet, I'll go first." Guo Jinzhang said suddenly.

"Well, you go there first, I'll talk to Asheng." Qian Shide nodded.

"Then I'll leave first." Guo Jinzhang was not stunned for a long time, looked at Li Asheng again, turned around and left.

"Jin Zhang is more sensible than you." Looking at Guo Jinzhang's back, Qian Shide paused for a moment and continued.

"Hmph, is he sensible?" Li Asheng was a little dissatisfied. Although Guo Jinzhang's voluntary departure prevented him from being too embarrassed, this was not enough to make him grateful: "If he wants to be sensible, he would not cause so many troubles."
