The door slowly opened, and people's eyes fell on Lance sitting behind the desk, and then noticed the manager who was sitting with his back to them.
The manager had his back to them, covering his head, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Vargas walked over with a smile, shook hands with them, and asked them to come in and sit down first.
"What are you doing?"
The captain of the mining protection team directly knocked away Vargas's outstretched hand and glared at him.
Perhaps some others would be somewhat hypocritical in dealing with this nominal mine owner, after all, he was also a peripheral member of the Lavella family.
It is worth mentioning that it is not that Diego is unwilling to use core members of the family, but that the La Villa family is not a complete whole, and there are some struggles and infighting among them.
If a core member becomes the mine owner, then he is the real mine owner and the mine has nothing to do with him.
For example, Diego has an uncle. If he lets his uncle come, then the mine belongs to his uncle, not him.
Only peripheral family members like Vargas would be the most appropriate.
The manager would take care of his face, but the captain of the mining protection team did not have such an idea.
He has people and a gun in his hands. Anyone with a gun at this time is ruthless!As long as it is not the military, everyone should respect his ideas and opinions.
He is also Diego's loyal friend and subordinate, and it is impossible for him to betray Diego. So he does not need to respect anyone here, but should be respected by others.
He felt that the atmosphere in the room was not right, so he instinctively became wary of Vargas.
Vargas looked at his hand that was knocked away and said nothing. He just smiled and said, "Nothing. I just have something to announce in front of everyone."
"Since the captain is unwilling to shake my hand, please take a seat."
The captain of the mining protection team glanced at Vargas, then looked at Lance twice, and walked towards the manager.
At this moment, the manager wanted to turn around and tell him not to come over, and then gather everyone together, but Hiram was staring at him.
The young man's gaze was like a knife, stabbing him, making him dare not raise his head, dare not do anything.
Even just thinking about it makes my heart beat faster.
Soon, the footsteps behind him were getting closer and closer, and the manager fell into despair.
Since the captain of the mining protection team and his men were in this room, the others had nothing to worry about.
These members of the mining protection team all have guns, and they don't believe that anyone can deal with them.
They all came to the opposite side of the desk and sat down on the chairs Vargas had prepared for them.
At this time, the captain was sitting next to the manager, looking at him with confusion, "What's wrong with your head?"
Although Hiram's blow didn't break his head, it was swollen, very obviously, and there might be some bruising.
The manager glanced at Hiram again, shook his head and said nothing.
The captain looked at the people around him, whispered "mysterious", and then looked at Lance and Vargas.
"I came back this time mainly to announce something to you all."
"I have sold the Horseback Mountain Silver Mine to Mr. Lance White."
"From today on, Mr. Lance will be the boss of all of you and the new owner of the mine."
As soon as he finished speaking, the captain of the mining protection team stood up and asked, "What the hell are you talking about?"
"Everyone knows that this mine belongs to Diego. What are you thinking about?"
He stared at Vargas with wide eyes and glanced at Lance twice.
As the captain of the mining protection team, he looked very ferocious, and was indeed a little scary when he glared.
This has something to do with what he has experienced. They have dealt with a lot of miners. If they do this too often, it will naturally create something that makes their peers feel fearful.
This feeling is strange, but it does exist.
Just like when livestock see a butcher, they are often frightened and tremble because they can feel the terrifying aura from the butcher!
The captain of the mining protection team also had the disease, and Vargas was stared at by him so hard that he didn't dare to meet his gaze.
This made the captain of the mining team seem a little complacent, but Lance was not affected by him. He once again showed the documents, authorization letters, sales agreements, etc., "According to the laws of Lapa, I am now the owner of this silver mine."
"Anyone object?"
The captain, who was already a little impatient, slammed the table and said, "I object!"
"Who do you think you are to touch Diego's things?"
"Don't you want to live anymore?"
Some of the soldiers standing behind the crowd took their guns from their backs and held them in front of them. There was naked arrogance in their eyes as they looked at the people around them.
For them, anyone who can be killed by a bullet cannot pose a threat to them.
After killing too many of their own kind, they will lose respect for life, including their own.
They don't sense danger.
When the others saw that the captain of the mining protection team had expressed his attitude, they immediately stood up to oppose Lance's decision.
"Everyone knows that Vargas is just a puppet. You are reporting with the puppet's things?"
"Young man, the situation here is very complicated and far beyond your reach. You'd better put your things down and get out of here, otherwise there is a high probability that you will not be able to go back and see your mother again!"
Someone else laughed and said, "I have never seen anything so ridiculous. Someone in Lapa actually wants to seize the La Villa family's wealth, and it belongs to Diego!"
The others also burst into laughter, not noticing that Vargas had left after inviting them in.
Lance leaned back in his chair, watching them laugh wildly and simply found it very amusing.
The captain of the mining protection team suddenly seemed to remember something. He looked at the manager who was still sitting beside him and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
The manager looked up at him, with a look in his eyes that he couldn't understand, but which suddenly made him very nervous.
The two looked at each other for a few seconds, and he suddenly reached out to take the gun from the holster, but the next second, there was a bang, and everyone's laughter was strangled at this moment!The two people standing behind the captain looked down at the brains on their bodies in horror, as well as the captain with his wild imagination. Waves of strong urge to vomit began to surge up in their stomachs.
The two of them bent over and vomited violently almost at the same time.
It’s not because they felt how disgusting it was. In fact, this kind of thing doesn’t feel disgusting at the moment, or at the first time.
Many people's brains don't have enough time to sort out the whole thing. They are still trying to explain to themselves what happened. How can they have time to feel the urge to vomit?
In fact, this vomiting comes from fear.
The most direct and fastest emotional response.
Severe vomiting due to fear.
The others were also stunned. They looked at the corpse with a big hole in its brain, slumped in the chair. The captain looked up at the ceiling, his eyes completely unfocused, lifeless, and like... a dead fish.
His two eyeballs were even looking in different places, and the moment his brain was severely damaged, it affected some changes in his body.
The soldiers he brought with him were shot to pieces before they could even take off the rifles on their backs.
Everyone's faces were pale, and Lance was still sitting with his legs crossed and his hands on his lap.
Hiram raised his pistol again and began to "call the roll" on them. This time he changed to a large-caliber pistol. The feedback from the shot on his wrist gave him an indescribable sense of pleasure!
The bullets no longer penetrated people's bodies powerlessly. Every shot from this large-caliber pistol was like a heavy fist hitting these people, knocking them back or even falling, and taking their lives.
Gunshots continued to ring out, Lance's toes swayed slightly, and he witnessed it all calmly and calmly.
Finally, the hot muzzle of the gun was pressed against the manager's head, burning him so much that he broke out in sweat and showed a desperate expression.
He opened his mouth, but in the end, no syllable came out and he could only look pleading.
If possible, he actually doesn't want to die.
Lance's face was more smiling now, "You see, the easiest way to resolve a disagreement is to resolve the people who created it."
"Now, no one objects."
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and a member of the mining protection team slowly fell down. Vargas' heart rate was already over 180!
He led his men to attack the dormitory of the mining protection team and killed everyone they could see inside.
He had never seen such ferocious federals. They killed people as if... they were killing small animals.
There wasn't a trace of pity in his eyes, and he didn't show any pity just because the person was a stranger.
There was no wavering at all, as if they were supported by a firm belief.
That's people!Even small animals can make people waver in their next move, but not these people. They are like born executors, without emotions, only work.
"There's another one here!" Vargas saw that the locker seemed to shake, but he did not waver when he shouted this.
Soon the person in the locker took the initiative to open the locker. It was a young man who should be less than 20 years old.
He might have used some other means, such as bribing the captain of the mining protection team with money, or the unique bribery method of the women in his family.
It is also possible that he knew the captain of the mining protection team, or knew someone else, so he entered the silver mine and became a member of the mining protection team.
It was indeed an easy job, they didn't even need to watch the miners working, that was the supervisor's job.
All they had to do was find some high place to stand and keep an eye on the miners to prevent them from escaping.
If necessary, if they found that miners had secretly hidden silver, they would pull those miners out, hang them in the square and whip them until they were dried!
Using fear to intimidate intelligent creatures is very effective.
The young man was a little thin, unlike his other colleagues who were all fat and strong, and his face was full of pleading.
I have to say that this guy looks very handsome, with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He should be very popular among girls.
"Please, I just started working..."
The next moment, gunshots rang out. He raised his head sharply and saw two bullet holes on his face. Then several more shots were fired until he was completely motionless.
He was then dragged out of the locker and placed on the ground.
The corpses neatly laid out together really made people feel terrified.
At this time, the mine had been completely controlled, and the staff began to be driven to the playground, where they were discussing what had happened.
Someone ran back to the office and told Lance that the mine had been completely under control. He then lowered his legs, which had been crossed, and stomped his feet to make his pants fit snugly again.
“Hook these people up and hang them in the square.”
When he came in, he saw two miners hanging on the pole in the playground. They were already dead and even started to drip water, but they were still hanging.
This was the ultimate weapon used to intimidate the miners, but now, they were the ones being hung up.
If they were still alive, they certainly wouldn't want these things to happen, just like the miners they hung.
The staff and miners were all crowded in the playground, and Lance's figure appeared in a three-story building directly opposite them.
Usually this is where the manager stands. He will say something here, such as asking the workers to increase the mining speed and make corresponding rewards and punishments.
Or decide the life and death of some miners in front of people.
They never shy away from people, and entering this mining area is no different from being dead or imprisoned, even though they come here voluntarily.
But today, this location has its new owner!
"My name is Lance, Lance White, nice to meet you first."
"You can call me Mr. White or Mr. Lance. It's all right. You can even give me a nickname."
"But the prerequisite is, don't let me know!"
"You must be curious about what happened."
"It's actually very simple. I bought the ownership of this silver mine from the previous mine owner, Mr. Vargas."
"From the day we signed the contract, this silver mine belongs to me."
"But some people don't seem willing to accept this fact."
His men began to carry in the bodies of the leaders, then hooked finger-thick hooks into their bodies and pulled the ropes to hang them up.
These people were dead beyond death. Suddenly, there was a noise on the playground, which kept getting louder and louder.
Almost everyone stared at Lance in amazement.
Is he really not afraid of death?This is in Lapa, on land controlled by Diego!
Is it this person who is crazy, or are these workers and employees crazy?
Some people were making a lot of noise, but when a volley of bullets was fired into the open space in front of them, the whole playground became quiet again.
These people, who are not the main managers, are small bosses and don't seem to care much about whether they are "loyal".
These people cannot contact the Lapa government. For example, Diego's phone number is only in the hands of the manager.
Even if others want to tip off, they must first get
"Do what you normally do now."
"In addition to these, everyone's salary will be increased by 15 percent."
"Maybe you don't know how much that is. To put it simply, for every hundred dollars, I'll give you fifteen dollars more..."
The originally quiet group of miners suddenly became "reactive". They kept whispering to each other and couldn't even maintain the most basic formation.
The supervisors saw it several times and wanted to go over, but finally they held back. Who knows what the new boss is like.
As for the question of Diego or not Diego... look at those unlucky guys who were hung up, isn't this the best answer?
After reading out some new rules, such as Lance allowing them to go home to see their families and giving them two weeks of vacation every year, their working hours and content were also redefined.
Because some mining equipment will soon be shipped over from the Federation.
The people here, especially those at the bottom, don't care about the change of boss and have even accepted this fact.
Who made Lance give more?They are all selling their lives, so of course they hope to get a good price.
The entire mining area was easily controlled under the dual means of threat of death and increased wages and benefits.
After resolving these issues, Lance entered the manager's office, where some relevant documents and records of the mine were stored.
Lance flipped through some documents without studying them in detail.
"Find a separate room to store these. Who knows, they might be useful in the future."
He looked at Vargas, his eyes fixed on him, "You did a good job, I am very satisfied."
Vargas was no longer as excited as he was just now. When the cool breeze blew outside, looking at the corpses hanging on the gallows, swaying in the mountain wind, it was like a basin of cold water was poured over his head, chilling his heart instantly!
"This is what I should do," he responded carefully.
People say Diego is cruel, but for some reason, he feels that maybe Diego is not as good as Mr. Lance.
Lance could sense his uneasiness at the moment, but he didn't explain.
What makes you respected is not your kindness, but others' awe of you!"I will definitely do what I promised you. You can go to the Federation anytime and anywhere now, Vargas."
"I have arranged a federal identity for you. Through investment immigration, you and your family have become legal federal citizens."
"But I want to give you some advice."
Vargas leaned down. "Please go ahead, Mr. Lance."
"The Commonwealth is a very special country. If you want to live happily there and want your family to live happily there, you need to have money."
"Your money may seem like a lot, but if you buy a nice villa and two nice cars, there won't be much left."
"With only expenses and no income, you won't last long."
Vargas listened to these words and was silent for a while. "I am willing to serve you, Mr. Lance."
