Chapter 1443: Chapter 694: Is This Really Okay?_2

Although the team members Sean Knight brought were mostly veterans due to his insistence, these veterans had been playing cat and mouse games with poachers for years. Their tactical training had regressed so much that they couldn’t even match new soldiers!

If it came to a hard fight, they couldn’t win this battle!

This was the immediate judgment Captain Alyosha made.

The documents in front of him were real.

Actually, Captain Alyosha had a plan in mind. If the opponents were weak but had such good equipment, it would definitely be a big piece of fat.

In that case, if they fought, they fought. At most, they would tear up this paper and claim it was a disguise.

He was in the Far East, a remote area far from the Emperor’s reach. Even if the big shot who issued these documents found out, what could they do? Would they send him to an even harsher place?

But right now, since they couldn’t win, they would let it go.

After Captain Alyosha thought it through, he immediately put away his gun and showed a smile:

"So it’s legal mining, then there’s no issue. We came here following a complaint, but it seems the complainant had malicious intentions. We will conduct a thorough investigation when we get back!"

Elijah Hastings took back the documents and said with a smile:

"It’s probably someone jealous of our findings, that’s why they did this. We understand your fairness in handling this issue."

The mammoth ivory that Sean Knight and his team had excavated was all out in the open, so there was no point in hiding it. They brazenly acknowledged it.

"I would like to ask about Mr. Knight mentioned on the documents... "

"He’s my boss, currently inside the tent," Elijah said, pointing over.

"May I meet him? As a patrol officer in this region, I feel it’s necessary to inform Mr. Knight about a few things."

Since the other party had shown friendliness, Sean Knight had no reason to hide any longer. He came out of the tent and shook hands with Captain Alyosha, who had been led inside by Elijah and his team.

The moment Captain Alyosha entered the campground, he was continuously astonished. The positioning of the opposing team members was such that they controlled the entire area. If a fight really broke out, under crossfire, his own men wouldn’t last a round!

It was for this reason that when he saw Sean Knight and the beautiful Viola next to him, Captain Alyosha wasn’t surprised at all. He shook hands with Sean Knight and first inquired about his background.

"I bought a castle in Tomsk," Sean Knight said. "The state official, Jack, there is a friend of mine... "

"Tomsk? My hometown is in Tomsk!" Captain Alyosha showed a face of surprise and immediately smiled, "Mr. Knight, that really is a coincidence!"

Since the conversation had reached this point, why not get familiar!

Elijah asked for a table and chairs to be brought, and Captain Alyosha sat down. After learning about the location of the castle Sean Knight had bought, he immediately mentioned that military fortress.

It seemed it wasn’t just about familiarity; it was genuine.

"Mining mammoth ivory here usually lasts just one summer season because after that, winter comes, and the area will be covered in snow and ice, making further mining impossible."

Sean Knight nodded, indicating he already knew this.

"There’s less than a month left before the end of the summer," Captain Alyosha said with a smile. "But it seems your harvest has been pretty good."

The huge pile of things was there for anyone to see.

"But we still want to dig up more," Sean Knight didn’t hide his intentions. "The more, the better."

"Then next year, you should come earlier," Captain Alyosha nodded, then exclaimed:

"You guys are amazing. Actually, there’s no mammoth ivory in this beach area—or rather, many diggers have come here before and left empty-handed. So the experience shared among them is that this place is barren, not worth coming over."

Sean Knight simply smiled and said:

"We’re lucky."

"So... when do you plan to leave?" Captain Alyosha asked, then quickly explained, as if afraid Sean Knight might misunderstand:

"The mining season is almost over, but I can’t go back yet since I still have work to do here. So, I’m hoping you can take some things back with you... "

"We might wait to go back until we can’t mine here anymore."

Sean Knight said again:

"I need as much mammoth ivory and rhinoceros horns as possible."

"I see..." Captain Alyosha mused.

Sean Knight, seeing Captain Alyosha deep in thought, suddenly had a bold idea and said with a smile:

"Captain Alyosha, I have a suggestion. Your patrol team must intercept and confiscate quite a bit of mammoth ivory each year, right?"

"That’s right, at least several dozens each year," Captain Alyosha casually said. "There’s even more stored at our superiors’ facilities. My boss once complained that if it continues like this, they’ll run out of storage space... you..."

It suddenly dawned on Captain Alyosha, and he stared at Sean Knight, somewhat taken aback.

"Yes. I think I can help you clear out some inventory, of course, at a certain price. Of course, you would also receive a considerable fee."

Sean Knight had plenty of money; what he needed to do now was to spend it.

Especially the increasingly unreliable US Dollars.

There was too much stored in the spatial realm.

If he could exchange it for resources, even if these items were valueless in turbulent times and could only be luxuries in prosperous times, Sean Knight thought it still better than a pile of useless paper.
