CHAPTER 419: CHAPTER 395: PROVOCATION UP CLOSE
Old Qiao originally thought he had encountered an interesting client and was about to earn a substantial guide fee...
But what he didn’t expect, was that while he and the native captain Quida were selecting a new outboard motor, Redick called them to the parking lot with a phone call.
When Old Qiao arrived at the parking lot, he saw Redick fretting behind a truck and, out of curiosity, walked over and said, "What’s up? That guy changed his mind?"
Redick shook his head, opened the van’s cargo area and said, "He said it was your suggestion, so he bought everything and asked you to transport it to the destination and find a place to store it for the time being."
Old Qiao leaned in to take a look, then his eyes suddenly widened as he exclaimed, "Why doesn’t this guy just buy Alaska outright?
I fucking just told him to buy some bullets as a gift, not to prepare for World War III.
Where am I supposed to put all this?
Why don’t you ask that bastard to buy another plot of land, and I’ll build him a house to store his ammunition..."
Redick pinched his nose with a gloomy expression and said, "That guy’s a loaded asshole with nowhere to spend his money...
Just now, while paying the bill, he bought Old Ruby’s Yukon River campsite for 300k after just a few words of conversation with him."
Hearing this, Old Qiao said incredulously, "Old Ruby’s campsite? Who would pay 300k for that place?
It takes two hours by plane just to buy a bag of salt there!"
Redick sighed deeply and said, "I don’t understand why that guy would want to buy that lousy place either.
You understand that old slick-head Old Ruby better than me; he probably saw that the guy was willing to spend money, so he actively pitched his campsite tours.
Heaven knows, his campsite has been abandoned for nearly two years now..."
As he spoke, Redick recalled the scene at the checkout counter, he let out a sorrowful sigh and said, "I still feel like this is all so unreal. That guy just looked at the map and then decided to buy that place.
I fucking shouldn’t have let him cooperate to fight against the gang; I should’ve pretended to be poorer, clung to his leg, and had him buy my farm, that way I could’ve gotten rid of the deadly property taxes every year.
You know, Old Ruby got so excited that he had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital...
His heart was about to stop, and he was still holding that guy’s hand, hoping to see his son get the bank check before he died.
Buddy, I think I’ve gotten myself into some big trouble..."
Old Qiao looked coldly at the gloomy fat Redick and said, "You’ve also gotten me into some big trouble!
To transport so much stuff over, Quida’s new outboard motor is definitely toast!"
Redick looked at Old Qiao’s reaction, guiltily clutching his chest, and pointed to a truck next to him, saying, "You’re a bit too optimistic. I suggest you suck up to that guy, otherwise, I don’t think even Quida’s new boat will be safe..."
...
"The world of the rich, you mortals wouldn’t understand!"
Mountain stood outside the emergency room, spreading his hands to the penny-pinching Butcher, "We’re not really here to play, buying an established campsite as a base isn’t too bad."
As he spoke, Mountain faced a crowd who looked at him as if he were a sucker, and with a smile, wrote a check for 300k to a short, burly, red-haired middle-aged man.
Then a middle-aged lawyer with an Eight-character Mustache, looking more like a Cowboy, had a brief negotiation with a fat land agent over the transfer details, ensuring Boss Eagle’s basic rights, and put a transfer agreement in front of the redhead, smiling as he said, "Ruby, as long as that old guy inside wakes up to sign, you can go cash the check at the bank."
After speaking, the Cowboy lawyer walked up to Mountain, laughing as he said, "Sir, you are a generous person!
Do you need an Alaska wilderness lawyer who has his own plane ready at all times and can skillfully handle all kinds of disputes?"
This was the moment when Mountain truly enjoyed the benefits of a grand spending spree!
He really hadn’t spent that much money...
Because what he bought was a Gold Seeker’s campsite located to the northeast of Beisai, surrounded by mountains, swamps, and forests.
To say he spent 300k to buy an almost half-abandoned Gold Seeker’s campsite, in reality, included the camp’s equipment and about 100 hectares of surrounding land.
More importantly, he obtained a piece of crucial information that the Alaska State Government had sold a large area north of the campsite to a multinational company years ago.
Then the company had serious conflicts over land use with the Gold Diggers and local natives.
As a result, the company deployed a large number of security personnel to the area, driving away the Gold Diggers while severely disrupting the lives of the local natives...
In the fierce disposition of Alaska, the approach taken by the Gold Diggers and the natives was armed resistance.
The Old Ruby, still in the emergency room, was a very cunning old man...
Forever a Gold Digger never makes as much as the one selling shovels beside the Gold Mine!
His campsite used to be very profitable, but as the conflict between the company and the locals escalated, his campsite business plummeted first.
Then the company took an interest in the location of his campsite and its role in the transit of daily supplies to the natives, and thus wanted to buy it.
Their plan was to cut off or significantly increase the cost of living for the natives in that area and also to block the Gold Diggers’ thoughts of entering the area.
