A Red Dead Redemption Story

Is Chapter 429 an opportunity or further sinking?

"What do you mean there is no chance to take action?" Cornwall paced back and forth in the office anxiously.

"Mr. Cornwall, why don't you find some professional people to do this kind of thing?"

Blanco, as Cornwall's chief security adviser, is very good at protecting people, or bullying, but kidnapping?This thing is really not in line with his profession, and if it is an ordinary person, it can be said that the target is always surrounded by a large number of bodyguards, so how does he start?

Of course, these reasons may just be his excuses. After all, Blanco doesn't want to do the kidnapping from the bottom of his heart.

"Okay, professional people. Could you tell me where to find professional people?"

Whether it was the Pinkerton Detective Agency, which Cornwall had used very well before, or the Odrisk Gang, which they had briefly cooperated with, they have basically completely withdrawn from the west.

Otherwise, Cornwall wouldn't have thought of letting Blanco do this.

"Mr. Cornish, we have a visitor." The assistant came to report.

"who?"

"They came from Fort Wallace. They didn't introduce themselves. They just said that Colonel Favors asked them to come."

"Damn it." Cornwall suddenly remembered what he had promised Favors before.

The assistant reminded him yesterday that with the current situation in Cornwall, of course he chose to treat this kind of promise that was not written in black and white as if it did not exist, and there was no oil underground in Wapiti. Cornwall really couldn't think of anything. It is necessary to continue to fulfill the promise...

However, Cornwall still didn't expect Favors to come to the door so soon.

"Say I'm not around and drive them away," Cornish said.

"This..." The assistant was a little embarrassed.

"What? Are they still trying to force their way in? Tell them to get out of here. If they come here to cause trouble again, I will go talk to their immediate boss!"

"I understand, Mr. Cornwall."

The assistant did as he was told.

"Conwall..."

Cornwall stretched out his hand to stop Blanco who wanted to say something, then walked to the window, opened the blinds slightly, and looked at the soldiers waiting downstairs.

Soon, the assistant came to them and followed Cornwall's instructions and told them that Cornwall was not there.

Cornwall could see the leading soldier shouting something at the assistant with a bad attitude, but in the end, the assistant pushed back with the words Cornwall had just taught, and finally left here in a dignified manner.

After seeing that Favors' trouble was temporarily resolved, Cornwall put down the blinds in his hands, turned to Blanco and said:
"Blanco, I heard your daughter is sick?"

"…Yes, Mr. Cornish, she has not been well."

"Have you taken her to the hospital? No, no, don't answer me in a hurry. I'm not talking about the small clinics on the roadside, but the regular big hospitals with the best doctors and the best doctors. Advanced technology, the best medicine." Cornwall said bewitchingly.

"I'm afraid, my income and savings don't allow me to do this, Mr. Cornwall." Blanco sighed.

Cornwall came to Blanco with a chuckle. He put his hand on his shoulder and said in a friendly manner that Blanco had never seen before: "I can pay you this money, Blanco." , Children are always the most important, they are hope and the future, we should not choose to give up easily just because of financial difficulties, what do you think?"

"..." Blanco was silent.

Where in the world is there a free lunch? What does Cornish mean by this? How could Blanco not understand?
He refused to take action because the target was accompanied by bodyguards. In fact, it was just a decision after weighing the risks. If he really wanted to kidnap him by force, how could he not do it at the cost of killing someone?
Moreover, Blanco is not an idiot. He knows very well who he will offend by kidnapping Linda.

"Mr. Cornwall, I'm afraid I really can't do this..."

"Blanco, I'm not negotiating with you." Cornwall's tone changed, his sinister eyes stared directly into Blanco's eyes, and then he said word by word:

"This is an order. Bring that damn target back to me!"

Blanco finally lowered his head while looking at Cornwall.

"I understand, Mr. Cornish."

……

"You've done a lot of business recently, Linda. Otherwise, you could consider taking over the work I'm doing now." Hosea said with a smile.

Linda was lying on the sofa, holding a planning document in her hand and looking up at it.

"Mr. Matthews, don't be joking. I'm very busy now. Where can I find time to do your work? Hum, when Arthur comes back, I will definitely ask him to treat me to dinner."

Hearing this, Hosea smiled and shook his head. Why did Linda need Arthur to treat him to dinner? The funds she had in hand now were already a sum that he had never dared to imagine before.

Thinking of this, Hosea also somewhat understood why Arthur gave up control of the underground world of Saint Denis so decisively and strongly supported Rudy in cleaning up criminals.

Rather than supporting this kind of group that always wants to backfire on itself, it would be better to keep the entire Saint Denis in a state of three or two kittens and puppies. Of course, this is just Hosea's own speculation, and Arthur's plan for this part does not exist. Didn't talk much with Hosea.

However, it was obvious that he already had a complete idea. In this case, Hosea didn't pay much attention to it.

"By the way, I see you bought the Journal Saint-Denis? Don't we already have the Journal Le Moyne?"

"Mr. Matthews, the media can never have too much talk. The voice of one newspaper is definitely not as loud as two. And the opportunity is rare. The owner of the "St. Denis Journal" has encountered a financial crisis, and we have not spent much money. I just got a majority of the shares, and there are not so many good things like this after a while." Linda replied with a smile.

It has to be said that the impact of the thunder on the stocks of these two companies, Babylon Oil and Babylon Oil Field, was really huge, and not only the speculators who were harvested in the stock market, but also the investors who directly invested in the company also lost all their money. Flooded.

"By the way, Hosea, I read the news in the newspaper. Dixon's trial is about to begin. Will this involve Arthur?"

Linda's words reminded Hosea that he should write a letter to Strauss who was on vacation in Cuba, but he almost forgot about it.

"Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with Arthur from beginning to end. As for insider trading in the stock market? Hey, it's not illegal."

Sure, it's not illegal now, but it won't be anytime soon.

Due to this case, which is called the 'scam of the century' or the 'Dixon scam', the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Department of Justice are already preparing proposals for relevant legislation.
