Road to becoming the wealthiest: Starting From Treasure Hunting in the Cabinets Chapter 1412 - 684: Not Everyone Can Take Advantage!
"Boss, we need to co up with a plan, or else, by tonight, those guys will definitely run off to the Small River lake." Douglas Cooper ca back after learning that there were diamonds in the Small River lake, and volunteered to check it out, only to find quite a few people loitering around the periter.
This already counted as entering the core area of Sean Knight’s domain.
However, the distance was quite far, so it wasn’t convenient to just open fire, and the matter ca to a deadlock.
"No problem," Sean Knight smiled, "We have plenty of equipnt here. Just set up a few lights around the Lakeside, and keep an eye on that area. As soon as soone heads into the lake, shoot imdiately. Fire a few shots at night, and those people won’t dare to co in again."
Man dies for money as birds die for food, provided that man sees the Money, and the bird has the food in its beak.
These people must have heard that there were diamonds in the lake, but no one had seen them. Having not seen anything but hearing gunshots, everyone would have to think twice.
Sean Knight’s approach was sound, so Douglas Cooper went ahead to make the arrangents.
He already knew that there might be a diamond mine underneath; if that was the case, the boss would get rich and would surely share with them.
So, these bastards trying to steal the diamonds, wouldn’t that be like stealing their own Money?
Unbearable! Absolutely not to be tolerated!
Soon after Douglas Cooper took his people over, there was light around the Lakeside.
This ti, Sean Knight’s team had brought a lot of equipnt. High lun flashlights and camp lights were set up right there.
Although it didn’t illuminate the vicinity of the Small River lake like dayti, it was clear enough to see several tens of ters away.
The light also disturbed many wild animals, causing them to roar incessantly.
The patrolling team mbers soon detected intruders and fired warning shots, scaring off the intruders imdiately.
"There won’t be any trouble, will there?" Viola, who was in the tent with Sean Knight, was sowhat worried.
"There won’t be any." Sean Knight smiled. The team mbers were professionals and wearing bulletproof vests, and they had the advantage in numbers. Those people were just after wealth; they probably wouldn’t attack the team mbers.
However, since Viola was a local, Sean Knight avoided being too blunt and simply wrapped his arms around her, smiling as he said:
"Don’t worry, there won’t be any problems. We’re just watching over that place, not letting anyone take our advantage. We won’t kill anyone on purpose."
Yes, they wouldn’t kill on purpose, but if soone else provoked trouble, then they couldn’t bla the team mbers.
The character of many Russians inherently included greed, bullying the weak, and an abnormal obsession with Land.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have encircled such a vast expanse of Land in the Outer Northeast and Northwest Region back then.
With a sparse population, they took much Land but left it undeveloped and idle.
In contrast, the Huaxia nation adopted a utilitarian policy towards Land. If it couldn’t be developed, they wouldn’t bother with it. Otherwise, back when they were powerful, they would have swept west from the Western Region—not that there weren’t other reasons, but practicality was always a priority.
Could those who heard the news and ca to steal diamonds be good people?
There are good and bad people everywhere, regardless of nation.
Just as there are good Russians, there are also bad ones who did plenty of wicked things in China before.
So although Sean Knight didn’t explain this to Viola, his team mbers understood. No matter the country, this domain now belonged to Sean Knight, and since intruders dared to co here, they had to seriously consider what price they were willing to pay.
The gunshots weren’t frequent, just an occasional shot here and there. You get used to it after a while.
Viola was initially worried, especially since she was Russian, which made her feel conflicted. But as she got used to the sounds, and with Sean Knight’s hands becoming restless, she soon stopped thinking about it.
One night passed, and at Daybreak the second day, the two got up to wash up and have Breakfast when Douglas Cooper ca to report.
"Yesterday, five groups ca to look for sothing in the lake. We scared off four groups; one group was greedy and cunning. They entered the water through the Small River, trying to sneak over, but they surfaced and our team mbers shot them."
"Did you Salvage them?" Sean Knight asked as if it were nothing.
"No, they drifted down the river," Douglas Cooper said unconcernedly, "After we eat, I’ll have people switch shifts. It’s much better in the dayti."
"Let our people hang in there for a bit longer. The team mbers coming from dostic China will arrive this afternoon," Elijah Hastings added, "A hundred people, which should be enough. They just won’t have Weapons upon arrival."
"Douglas, go to the City to pick them up, and while you’re at it, get their Gun procedures sorted out. As for the weapons, I’ll figure sothing out."
Elijah and the others knew that Sean Knight had ways to get guns, so they didn’t ask any further.
Viola, on the other hand, asked:
"It’s hard to get guns around here. Where are you going to get them from?"
Nowadays, Viola was bolder than before, not just focusing on translation.
Sean Knight simply smiled and said:
"New guns? No, but haven’t we dug up quite a few old guns previously? Peter Smith should still have so of those. I’ll have him send so over."
Elijah and the others brightened up; this was indeed a good idea!
After all, they were there to Guard the Forest, not to fight a war. Having a gun was all that mattered. Although the Mosin Nagant was a bolt-action rifle, requiring a pull after each shot, they had dug up more than just that model; there were also semi-automatic and submachine guns.
If he could get so, having those would feel even more prestigious than using the current Automatic Rifles!
Seeing the gleam in the eyes of Elijah and the others, Sean Knight knew what they were thinking and said with a smile:
"When the guns arrive, you guys can have a go with them too. After all, this place belongs to us. Once our people arrive and we have a stronger defense force, we can stroll around the Forest, hunting with these guns—it should be more interesting, right?"
