A Red Dead Redemption Story

Chapter 276

"Ah, I saw you, sir, at that awful party, Evelyn Miller."

"Arthur Morgan, I know you, Mr. Miller."

Arthur knew Evelyn Miller very well, and Dutch held his copy of "American Purgatory" in the camp every day, watching it intently, and regarded it as a classic and a creed of life.

To a certain extent, today's Dutch is a practitioner of the ideas advocated by Evelyn Miller.

However, some newspapers believe that the central idea of ​​Evelyn Miller's work is the dismissal of "others" who have not reached their level of education due to their social status.

He, like the rest of his ilk, was a dandy masquerading as a lover of nature and art.

As ordinary people, there is no need for other people to worship this hypocritical idol.

But for Arthur, Evelyn Miller and Dutch were the kind of people who fought against urbanization and fought against the industrial age.

It's not that Arthur can't understand their nostalgia for the past Western era, their love for people and nature, peaceful coexistence, interesting and pure things.

In fact, Arthur also misses those times, but he knows that the wheel of history will not change for a few people.

Going a bit further, let’s talk about this chance encounter.

After hearing Arthur say that he knew him, Evelin was not surprised. After all, whether it was a good reputation or a bad reputation, he was considered a well-known figure. He smiled and said:

"Yes, I am right here, Mr. Morgan. Is it convenient for me to say a few impolite words?"

"Please?"

Evelin put away her smile, turned to look at Luo Yu and Fei Ying next to her, then looked at Arthur again and said:

"Mayor, I may have some unintentional opinions about you. Although you were invited to his dinner, believe me, the mayor is planning to cause you some trouble."

"If this is what you mean by being impolite, then it seems to me, Mr. Miller, that you have some misunderstanding about the definition of impoliteness?"

"Haha." Facing Arthur's poisonous tongue, Evelyn laughed a few times before continuing:

"Well, then I'll be blunt, and I understand, Mr. Morgan, that you...well, have some pretty good pasts, and..."

"and?"

Evelin was silent for a while, and then she seemed to have made up her mind and said:

"Okay, I'll just tell you. I don't know if it's okay, but I hope you can help me steal something."

"...Well, your request is indeed not very polite, Mr. Miller." Arthur said with a smile.

Anyway, asking someone you met for the first time and only exchanged names to help steal something?No matter how you look at it, this is not only impolite, but also has some unsophisticated undertones.

Of course, if this was done by Dutch, it might be more natural?
Thinking about these messy things, Arthur was ready to leave.

After all, he was just out of curiosity when he came up to talk to her in the first place. Now that the situation was about to become troublesome, he had no interest in getting involved.So, facing Evelin who was still reorganizing her language, Arthur said:
"Don't mind, Mr. Miller, I forgive your rudeness. At the same time, I also refuse your request. Then, I won't bother you..."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, at least let me finish telling you this and introduce you to this, this is a great chief..."

Before Evelin finished speaking, she was interrupted by Arthur who was about to leave, waving his hand and saying:
"I know that Luo Yu also has his son Fei Ying."

I don’t know what the considerations were, but Chief Luoyu spoke at this time. He said:

"Mr. Morgan, I heard both the bison and the eaglet talk about you."

Arthur, who had already turned around and was about to leave, couldn't help but stand still when he heard what Luo Yu said.

"We fought hard and we signed peace treaties, and those treaties were broken and we were driven out, punished, punished, driven out again, and I don't want to mention the bison or the eaglet, if I may, but we We're really at the end of the rope, Mr. Morgan."

"I think I know." Arthur turned around and rubbed his forehead helplessly. He really didn't expect that the bison and the others were actually people from the Falling Rain tribe. At this time, it seemed that he couldn't care less. He said:

"Tell me, I will help you within my ability. Let's talk first. Although I sympathize with your situation, to a certain extent, I am powerless. But you don't need to despair, as long as you persist in living. If we go on, there will always be hope for the future.”

Feiying, who was standing next to Chief Luoyu, seemed to disagree with Arthur's words. He wanted to say something, but when he saw his father speaking, he swallowed the words that came to his lips. Just listen to Luo Yu say with approval:

"As long as you live, there is hope. This is very wise. Mr. Morgan, but the current situation is that they are going to expel us again."

Evelin on the side added in time:

"This behavior is a clear violation of the peace treaty they signed three years ago."

Fei Ying, who finally had the chance to speak, said firmly:
"Doing this will cause a war!"

As if hearing some incredible words, the moment the word "war" appeared in Feiying's mouth, Chief Luoyu looked at his son in disbelief, and then corrected:
"No, kid, there won't be a war."

After saying that, Luoyu reached out and patted Feiying on the shoulder, trying to calm him down with this action.

After Luo Yu comforted Fei Ying, he continued:
"Mr. Morgan, we can no longer stand the war, they have become stronger, and we are far behind them, as you can see, I have already let some soldiers who are willing to go out to make a living try to integrate into this society, although There are only a few who are willing, but it is indeed feasible. We don’t want war, we just want them to abide by the treaty.”

Does it matter to Indians like Luoyu and others what they want?

At least in this day and age, it doesn't matter.

Arthur said with some embarrassment:
"This is very difficult, very difficult. But you can tell me first, why do they continue to drive you away?"

"This is all because of oil." After answering Arthur's question, Evelin clenched his hands into fists and continued affirmatively:
"I'm pretty sure that's the reason, although they won't admit it, but I know there were prospectors who went into Rainfall's territory a few months ago and submitted their prospecting reports to Leviticus Cornwall and the state The government, they claim there’s a lot of oil underneath that territory.”

Hearing this, Arthur nodded in understanding, and then said in a somewhat uneasy tone:

"So your current plan is to ask me to steal the exploration report?"
