Chapter 655: Chapter 423: Do a good job in mass work here too! _2
"Some of us have relatives in our home country, I reckon we probably have a better understanding than those who hold resentment towards the rich."
"Let’s accept it then." Sean Knight picked up the Yellow Sheep, "Not bad, when it’s skinned, there’s about seven to eight kilograms of meat, it will quench our craving!"
"There are so many people in the camp, one won’t be enough, let’s go find some more."
The off-road vehicle started, and they drove further out into the wilderness.
They saw a wolf in the distance, but as soon as it heard the car, it immediately hid in the shrubbery on the side of the mountain.
Sean Knight was not overly eager to hunt the wolf, so he continued the search.
It seemed that all the Yellow Sheep in this area had been driven off by Antony Carter and his group. The off-road vehicle drove out for several kilometers. Other than a few frightened rabbits and marmots that stood up at the sight of the car and hid into their holes as the car approached, they didn’t see anything else.
"Let’s go back. One Yellow Sheep is not bad either." Sean had to console himself.
However, luck was on his side. Not far from their return route, he saw a lone antelope grazing in the shrubbery, casting vigilant glances around from time to time.
Sean immediately got out of the car and quietly moved towards it.
After several times of evading the antelope’s monitoring in blind spots, Sean, with his far superior physical fitness, managed to get within ten meters behind the antelope.
He raised his hunting rifle.
"Bang!"
The antelope fell to the ground.
Carrying the less than twenty-kilogram antelope, Sean headed back to the vehicle.
"Boss, you are amazing!" Douglas Cooper flattered, "It’s so easy for these animals to get scared, and yet you hit it - impressive!"
"We’ll share. We’ll eat the meat, and split the horn."
"Boss, you’re wise!"
Many people knew the use of this item, but it was banned in the domestic market, so it was hard to come by.
"Leave it with me for now, I’ll give it to you when I bring it back to our country." Sean knew that even if it was legally obtained, it would still not be easy to bring back domestically.
He would do it himself.
Just as they were about to return to the camp, Sean suddenly noticed an additional pickup truck at the campsite.
Could that be Antony Carter and his gang?
Then on closer examination, it wasn’t their vehicle!
Sean’s heart sank, something’s not right!
It was highly likely that robbers had arrived!
Sean quickly pretended to look in his bag, then took out three pistols and handed them to Elijah Hastings and his team.
"Something’s up at the camp, we’ll play it by ear when we get there!"
Sean himself held the hunting rifle.
Elijah Hastings and his team had also noticed the abnormality, and the driver, Lincoln Harrington, asked:
"Boss, should we drive over or sneak up?"
The terrain here was quite open; Sean said:
"Let’s drive over, it’s not too far. Even if we get out of the car, they’ll surely notice us."
The situation became clearer as they approached.
The driver, officials, and staff were held at gunpoint. Several people had boarded the bus and were franticly rifling through the luggage.
Seeing the off-road vehicle driving over, two men immediately raised their guns and walked over. However, they seemed to not be on high alert.
They gestured for Sean and his crew to get out of the vehicle after they forced it to stop.
Their demeanor was very aggressive.
As the four of them got out of the vehicle, they hinted at each other with their eyes; if these two were to pat them down, they would immediately take them down!
But for some reason, they didn’t even search them and simply forced them to walk back towards the camp.
Sean guessed that they must have already interrogated the driver and learned about the origins of him and his team, knowing they would be unarmed, hence their carelessness!
They were ushered into the camp with guns pointed at them. The people on the bus were cursing as they came down.
Obviously, they didn’t find anything valuable.
However, the man who exited the tent was quite excited. He held Edward Shermer’s package in his hand as he emerged.
The lock had been broken open, and stacks of US dollars and Mongolian Tugriks were taken out of it by him,
Meanwhile, Jennifer was being chased out of the tent. Mary Edwards was probably still unconscious, so she had stayed inside the tent.
Sean saw there were seven robbers in total, and the Mongolian official was currently being held to the ground.
There was blood on his face, revealing that he had been physically assaulted.
They had probably thought to intimidate these robbers away using his status but did not expect to be severely beaten up instead.
"Hand over your money!" One of them pointed at Sean Knight and his team, shouting.
Another person had already moved towards the off-road vehicle, intending to search the luggage inside.
At this moment, two bandits forcibly brought Sean and his team, one holding the local Mongolian official, another was staring at the driver and others.
The third one pushed Jennifer while another one went to the off-road vehicle.
Only the leader was more idle, looking at Sean and his team, with a very uncomfortable expression.
He was speaking English, but it was not fluent.
Sean and his team looked at each other, knowing it was time to take action!
A gun suddenly appeared in Sean’s hand, he raised it at the lead bandit!
The leader was quick at his reaction, immediately raising his rifle in his hand!
But within seven steps, who was quicker in making the move holds the advantage!
Sean pulled down the lead bandit with a single gunshot, then pointed his gun at the one holding the local Mongolian official, shot him and then pointed his gun at the one holding Jennifer...
Unfortunately, Elijah and his group moved too fast, leaving no one to Sean.
The four of them worked together and eliminated the bandits in no time.
They didn’t even have to fire heavily, each person’s target was a one-hit kill!
As soon as the gunfire rang out, the local Mongolian official pissed himself!
He thought the robbers were going to open fire!
It was only after Sean and his group killed the seven robbers, collected their rifles, and put away their pistols, that the hostages’ reactions overcame them!
Elijah and his group dragged the bodies of the bandits to the side of the pickup truck. Only then did the driver and the local Mongolian official react.
"They... they’re all dead?" The local Mongolian official was somewhat stunned.
The driver and the technician, including Jennifer, looked at Sean and his team in awe.
"We had no choice but to shoot," Sean explained, "If we held back, we could have possibly hurt us or you..."
The Mongolian official immediately waved his hands:
"I didn’t mean that, I meant, nobody escaped, right?"
"No one."
"That’s great! Thank you!"
"We’re not in any trouble, right?" Sean asked, he was unsure about the laws here.
"Don’t worry! There’s definitely no trouble! These people are most likely wanted fugitives! What you did is a great deed!"
"That’s a relief!" Sean felt relieved.
If there were no witnesses, it’s just a matter of killing. Now that there were people, he must be clear about it.
They had comforted them and cleaned up the campground messed up by the robbers. At this time, Edward Shermer’s team also hurried back.
They returned after hearing the gunshots, being cautious as they approached.
However, seeing that sean and his team were fine in the campground, Edward finally felt relieved.
"It’s too dangerous here," Edward glanced at the seven bandits and hesitated, "It is really dangerous to start a mine here and have dealings with these kinds of people..."
The local Mongolian official immediately assured Edward Shermer:
"I assure you, things like these are very rare! We must have been targeted after leaving the last small town. Please trust in our security here, robbers are rare! "
Edward Shermer looked at Sean Knight.
He already knew that Sean and his group killed the seven bandits. At this moment, he trusted Sean even more.
Sean could even guess what he was thinking: why don’t you stay and be our security guard!
Of course, Sean would never let him have his wish, so he asked:
"Mr. Shermer, how’s the situation with the mine?"
"Very good! The mine range is wider and the veins are more concentrated. I think there is still some value in mining."
He was conservative in his wording, but Sean naturally knew the real situation.
"I think then, you could hire some locals as security guards." Sean commented:
"The locals actually hate these robbers too, but they have no fixed place to live and are difficult to find.
You could hire some local hunters and herdsmen as security guards and miners, providing them with jobs, they would thank you, and protect the mining area!"
After Sean said this, the local Mongolian official immediately agreed:
"Yes, yes, yes! The locals are the ones who are most familiar with the place. If they work in the mine, the safety of the place is guaranteed!"
Sean immediately thought of Antony Carter.
I wonder if he is willing?
