A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 138 Trouble
"Dutch, are you sure there's nothing wrong with doing this?" John drove the carriage and asked Dutch, who was sitting next to him and smoking a cigar.

Dutch smiled and replied affirmatively:

"Yes, my boy, what's the problem? We're just selling them back to where they came from."

John frowned. That was not the meaning of what he just asked. He didn't believe that Dutch didn't understand the meaning, so he asked again:
"Are you really sure? We all know that Arthur wants us to stand on the side of the Gray family, and you do this...?"

"Why?" Dutch put his arm around John's shoulder and waved the other hand holding the cigar in front of him. He leaned his face towards John and continued:

"Why do you think Arthur's plan is related to our plan? Believe me, kid, I admit that Arthur's strategy of uniting the Gray family is very good, but you have to understand that this is such a stupid place. It It’s a backward, ungrateful land…”

John understood what Dutch said deeply. He was not in the camp these days. Apart from going to do one thing that Dutch asked, the only thing left was to find a market for these things, but unfortunately, he did not find any. No one buys this thing at all.

But he did get a strong sense of what Dutch was talking about, which was that this was a town full of stupid people.

So John smiled and responded to Dutch, saying:

"Indeed, you are right, this place is like this."

Hearing John agree with his words, Dutch smiled and continued:

"Look at the Gray family who was tricked by Arthur. You know, Arthur's best thing has never been his brain, but here, even Arthur has become a genius who is good at planning, haha. "

"Hahaha."

The two people laughed in the carriage. The carriage behind them was filled with the moonshine that Arthur asked Lenny and the others to bring back, the moonshine that they had stolen from the Bravest family.

After the laughter, Dutch let go of his hand on John's shoulder and analyzed seriously:

"These policemen, these two families, it seems to me that we can play them all in a clap, can you understand? John, it's like old Hosea's best trick."

Looking at Dutch talking boastfully, John seemed to feel that the young Dutch seemed to be back again. He smiled and said:

"Hey, 'Young Dutch', where did you take 'Old Dutch'?"

After being stunned for a short time, Dutch smiled and cursed:

"You brat, what's the 'young Dutch'? I'm clearly just as powerful as I was when I was young!"

After the joke, John brought the topic back seriously and said again:

"Daqi, there's no market for this stuff in Rhodes. There's a big problem here. You know, Arthur told us that bootlegging is rampant here..."

Dach waved his hand indifferently, and said:
"Forget what Arthur said, he is no longer the Arthur we know, he has changed! Just like those rich people we hate, Arthur joined them and became One of them, exploiting the poor, crushing the poor, has dropped the gun on the rich."

"..." John didn't speak. He only listened to Dutch continue: "Listen, John, since these wines are brewed by the Bravest family, they will definitely be able to find buyers. We have to turn these things into Only banknotes will do. If I remember correctly, Arthur didn’t send you any money this week? So, counting on others’ charity won’t work. We must be self-reliant like in the past!”

John nodded. He felt that there was nothing wrong with Dutch's thinking this time. They should have a high probability of making this deal, and what Dutch said was indeed right, even though he didn't understand what happened specifically. , but Arthur has indeed changed.

In the past, John didn't believe that Arthur would leave the gang, but now, Arthur has indeed not returned for a long time.

"Let's go to Bravest Manor!" After John finished speaking loudly, he accelerated the carriage.

……

"Are you really sure you want to do this? Mrs. Morris?" Arthur asked with a frown.

Originally, Arthur planned to accompany Morris on a walk in the evening, and then have a friendly chat with Morris's creditors, but Mrs. Morris had a different suggestion.

Mrs. Morris put down the coffee cup in her hand and replied firmly to Arthur:

"Yes, I'm quite sure, Mr. Callaghan. After all, we caused the trouble ourselves. We will solve it ourselves. We can't bother you with everything."

Arthur thought that Mrs. Morris might not understand yet. In fact, to some extent, the trouble Morris caused this time was not entirely his fault. A large part of it was still due to Arthur's involvement. , so Arthur continued to explain:

"This group of people is not here for you. Their target is actually me, so you don't have to think that they are troubling me, Mrs. Morris."

"That's right, Jenny..." Morris in the corner said softly.

"Shut up!" After Mrs. Morris sternly stopped what Morris said, she turned her head again and put on a smiling expression. She looked at Arthur and said with a smile:

"We appreciate your concern, Mr. Callahan, but I still insist that we please resolve this matter ourselves."

There was no other way. Seeing that Mrs. Morris insisted on doing this, Arthur had no choice but to nod and said:
"That's fine, but at least you can tell me how you plan to solve it? After all, Morris is in black and white...well, you know."

At the mention of this, Arthur remembered that he seemed to be fooling Maurice in this way at first. In order to avoid his own embarrassment, he decisively omitted this part.

Mrs. Morris did not shy away from talking about what she was going to do next. She answered bluntly:
"In the past, some people died every day on this land. Now, I find that we have not evolved as civilized as expected? Mr. Callahan, I won't be able to talk to you more specifically. As for 'black and white', please rest assured that this matter is not the same as the beginning of our cooperation, isn't it? After all, you did not point a gun at my husband."

Although Arthur avoided talking about this part, he did not expect that Mrs. Morris did not avoid talking about it and actually brought it up again.

"Well, if you are so insistent, then I won't force it. However, I think I might have to give you a little suggestion, Mrs. Morris." Arthur said seriously.

"please say."

"Next time you quarrel with Maurice, don't kick him out of the house..."
