A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 163 Politeness
Eamonn Moyle looks like just an ordinary middle-aged man, although from the appearance, he may look older than his age. He was originally Charlie's deputy in the fourth regiment of the former Southern Army. Now he also serves as Charlie's deputy, but he actually works for the new boss Arthur.

After finishing the work at the Cornwall Tar Factory, Eamonn and several other old comrades spent a few days repairing the place that originally belonged to the Downs and is now called Callaghan Ranch.

Amon summed up his new life now. Mrs. Downs's cooking skills are very good. Although her son is always pestering them with questions, the life here does allow them to rediscover the meaning of life. Living a life that can be called comfortable.

"Eamonn, we messed up our first mission. Does our new boss really have any objections?"

Well, actually we can’t blame Eamonn and the others. From the guard at the door to the security captain, everyone referred to the vice president as president in order to satisfy Cameron’s vanity, and Eamonn and the others’ target is President Leviti. Chris Cornwall, no, it can only be said that he deserves to be the scapegoat for Cameron.

Although this assassination was successful and played a good role, in the final analysis, Aemon and the others still killed the wrong target.

Eamonn, who was being questioned, was inserting a bundle of hay into the trough. He didn't put down the pitchfork until the trough was full, then turned back to look at Martin and said:

"Charlie said, it's okay, that means it's okay. Don't mention it again. Martin, if you are really worried, then I recommend you to brush all the horses in the stable."

Although he said so, Eamonn knew Martin's character very well, so there was a high probability that Martin would not be able to do it. He is the kind of person who likes to think a lot. Alas, it is a pity that he can't think clearly.

Eamonn thought that letting him brush his horse would be a good way to help him.

Martin frowned and said:

"Hey, Eamonn, no one wants us to be cowboys on the farm? Besides, I don't think this is a serious ranch business. Those carriages that go in and out are all moonshine. "

Hearing what Martin said, Aemon couldn't help but sigh, and he said sternly:

"Martin, you really need to change this habit of yours. You'll know some things once you know them, but don't say them out loud. Have you forgotten the miserable days you had before?"

"...I'm just talking to you. I don't talk nonsense."

"Listen, I'm very satisfied with our current boss and our job, and I also trust Charlie, so I don't want you to cause any accidents that I don't want to see because you can't control your mouth. I understand. ?"

"Understood……"

"Okay, now go get the bucket and brush and work. How about you learn from the others? I think they are quite happy being cowboys?"

……

Anyway, I don’t know if their life as cowboys was pleasant. In short, Eamonn and the others did not play as cowboys in Callahan Farm for too long. Arthur called them to Rhodes Town, and they were quickly thrown into it. They were dealt a devastating blow to the Bravest family's wine-making sites all over Lemoyne.

In almost a whole week, Arthur destroyed more than a dozen wine-making sites, large and small, and what accompanied this was the Bravest family's crazy revenge against the Gray family, such as arson in the tobacco fields. , destroying textile factories at night, attacking Gray's goods, etc...

For a time, in addition to pulling out their troops for a head-on fight, both sides tried their best. However, unlike the Bravest family, which had its economic lifeline severely blocked, the Gray family still appeared to be very calm in this war.

When Arthur and Charlie came to Gray Manor to visit Tavish today, they both could clearly find that the number of Gray guards in the entire manor had more than doubled compared to when they came before. .

Arthur suddenly asked Charlie in a low voice: "Charlie, how many people do you think we need if we want to capture Gray Manor?"

Charlie glanced at the servant who was leading the way. After making sure that he had not heard Arthur's words, he said:
"It's hard to die, a lot of people"

Arthur nodded, and the two went up to the second floor. Charlie sat down on the bench in the corridor outside the study, and Arthur walked straight into Old Gray's study.

"Ah, Mr. Callahan, welcome, I was still wondering when you would arrive." Old Gray said with a smile. He sat on the sofa with a cane in both hands and did not get up.

Arthur was not polite and sat down directly opposite Old Gray. He crossed his legs, looked at Old Gray and said:
"Your old rival is losing strength, Mr. Grey."

Listening to Arthur's straightforward words, Old Gray narrowed his eyes, shook his head slowly, and said:
"Mr. Callahan, it seems that you still underestimate the heritage of a family like ours. I heard that you have done very well recently. I believe that you must have brought huge trouble to the Brevis family, but these... It’s not enough, we still haven’t shaken its roots.”

Arthur looked like he was all ears. To be honest, he didn't think Old Gray was being alarmist. Arthur believed that the Bravest family must be facing serious cash flow problems now. After all, with so much equipment, The raw materials and finished products were all destroyed by myself.

All of this requires money, and Bravest's head is not as strong as Arthur imagined. They have indeed temporarily suspended the moonshine business. Aemon and the others have not found any new moonshine in the past two days. Workshop.

However, Arthur was too lazy to guess about the Gray family's next actions. He directly asked:
"Then, Mr. Gray, what do you want to do next?"

"Callaghan, you should have noticed when you came here, right? I increased the number of guards, which is a huge ongoing expense." What Old Gray said seemed not to be related to Arthur's problem, but it was actually related. , Arthur knew that not only the Gray family had added guards, but Bravest had also added a large number of guards.

Arthur asked incomprehensively:

"Although this is a large ongoing expense, in any case, this amount of money can't hold off the Bravest family, right?"

"Of course it can't be delayed, but I heard that, for some reason, Lemoyne State Bank has recently started to collect several outstanding debts from the Bravest family." Old Gray smiled. said.

Haha, looking at Old Gray like this, Arthur knew without asking that this must be what he was pushing behind.

Arthur didn't want to watch Old Gray and himself pretending to be here. Yes, it was pretending. He could see that Old Gray seemed to enjoy sharing the feeling of using his influence to promote the conspiracy behind the enemy's back, and he also He likes to be seen as 'strategizing'.

Arthur asked bluntly:
"So? What are you going to do next? Or, what do you need me to do for you? You know, I have been busy for so long, but I haven't seen any of the benefits I want, Mr. Gray .”

After all, Arthur didn't plan to work for nothing, he went for the property of the Brewster family, and now he has done a lot of tiring work for the Gray family, but there is still only one room in Rhodes Town. An office that does not bring him income.

Seeing Arthur's face asking for favors, Old Gray put away the smile on his face and said seriously and seriously:

"Young man, I won't live long. Yes, I don't mind telling you the truth. The next generation of the Gray family are all wastes, and among these wastes, my son is the most wasteful. So this time , I must completely destroy the thorn in Bravest’s side.”

Old Gray paused for a moment before continuing:
"So you don't need to be anxious. Look at me, an old man who is about to be buried. I'm not in a hurry yet. Why should you, a young man, be so impatient? Please put on the mask of politeness and humility that you pretended before. , I don’t like rude young people.”
