Chapter 238 Peace Talks
Everyone rested in the pasture for three days. During this period, everyone's nerves were tense. Now it was a rare opportunity to rest. All cats were motionless in their own homes.
Arthur's injury was not healed yet, so he left little Zhao Yi to John. It happened that he also had a little Jack at home, so he had a playmate.
Little Jack has grown up in the camp since he was a child, and there is no one around him of similar age. The same goes for little Zhao Yi. Although the two are a few years apart, they hit it off and started playing happily together.
A letter from William also arrived. The letter said that he had contacted St. Denis and that Zhou Xing was willing to negotiate peace. And just three days later, the location was set at Rhodes Town.
Zhou Zheng thought about it carefully, whether it was to delay time or to really want peace talks, it was necessary to go there.
Arthur was still recovering from his injuries, and he had to leave a few people at home. Besides, it was not a personal danger, so he decided to go with John.
They would go to Blackwater first, and then sail to Rhodes with William.
John had some opinions about peace talks. He was not used to such a scene.
"Think about it, that bastard Micah also tricked Dutch into negotiating peace, but almost killed Arthur." John rode on his beloved white horse and said worriedly: "Of course, I'm just a little worried. Your senior brother is not someone who keeps his word. Even if the peace talks succeed, he will regret it."
"In fact, I don't have any confidence in this peace negotiation." Zhou Zheng said while pulling Chitu's reins: "I just want to buy you some time. I believe Zhou Xing means the same."
Ever since Hakuba arrived at home, Chitu has completely fallen into despair, and it feels uncomfortable not to see her for a day.
"What do you mean, are we going to negotiate a contract that is destined to be torn up?" John asked confused.
"Of course, will you just let this guy Zhou Xing go?" Zhou Zheng asked with a smile.
"Of course not. In fact, I want to kill him directly." John said through gritted teeth.
In any case, Dutch made a lot of mistakes, and he was the one who raised them, and with Charles' previous injuries, how could John let him go so easily under old and new accounts.
"That's it. Do you think Zhou Xing is very confident that he can definitely kill us?" Zhou Zheng was sitting on his horse smoking a cigarette, looking leisurely.
"He is like sitting on the stove now. If he is not careful, he will die. He has no time or energy to waste time with us." Zhou Zheng said firmly: "Daqi is not his opponent, and neither is Bronte." , let alone those so-called elite politicians.”
"But he needs time to digest everything he has now. And so do we, we also need time to run our industry."
"Think about it, just a few of us, Arthur, Charles, you, the four of us, can't we find a good opportunity to kill him directly?" Zhou Zheng looked at John with confidence, and John nodded. He said without hesitation: "As long as I have a chance, even if it's just a second, I can make a hole in his head."
"That's right, we can kill him, but we can't afford the consequences. And if we don't kill him, he can find ways to cause trouble for us every day. Anyway, there are as many cannon fodders in his gang as we need. , and each of my brothers is more precious than the other. But on the other hand, he is also worried that we will be pushed into a hurry and run directly to Saint Denis to fight him to the death." Zhou Zheng patiently explained to John, and now he finally understood.
"It's really complicated. Only you can figure out these things. It seems that we were right in electing you to be the boss." John breathed a sigh of relief and said: "You should think about these things slowly by yourself. I noticed that your hair has started to grow recently. Less.”
"Damn, is it so obvious?" Zhou Zheng pressed his hat hard. He had a lot of worries during this period, and his hair seemed to have fallen out a bit. He said angrily: "It seems I should find some for you. It’s done.”
"Haha, as long as you don't have to use your brain." John smiled wildly.
The two of them rode leisurely to Blackwater Town. They went directly to the dock of Blackwater Town, and William was already on the boat.
"Father, this is about...ahem, Jim Milton. My right-hand man." Zhou Zheng introduced John here to William. Of course, he used a fake name. Although everyone knew it, he still had to do a superficial job. For a moment.
As for this title, he and Isabella were about to get married, so the title naturally changed easily.
Hearing this father, William smiled with satisfaction, pulled Zhou Zheng and began to introduce the people behind him.
This was not something John could join. He wisely walked a little further away and stood alone on the bow. He was very impressed by the way Zhou Zheng was chatting and laughing with a few so-called elites not far away.
Not like Dutch's forced demeanor and so-called elegance. Although Zhou Zheng doesn't know much about etiquette and often makes jokes, he can't fake the temperament he has.
No matter how noble a noble official is, he is no different from an ordinary beggar in his eyes. He will not belittle anyone because of his power or power, nor will he be arrogant to the weak just because he has power or power.
"Why, what is a person thinking here alone?" John was in a daze looking at the vast lake. Suddenly Zhou Zheng came over with two glasses of red wine, handed a glass of wine to John, and then the two toasted to each other.
"It's nothing, I'm just wondering if you're not tired of dealing with these people?" John drank the wine in one gulp.
"Of course it's a little bit, but there's nothing we can do about it." Zhou Zheng said with a smile, "You also have to learn, you will be indispensable for these things in the future."
"Hey, what does this have to do with me? I'm only responsible for fighting or killing people." John hurriedly waved his hand and refused, joking that if he was asked to do this, it would be better to let him go directly to St. Denis to kill Zhou Xing.
"If you want to make some big money and let Jack go to a good school, then you have to learn how to deal with these people." Zhou Zheng shrugged: "You can't run away."
"Aren't you still there?" John said with a smirk: "I believe you will let Jack go to college."
"Damn it, you've got me." Zhou Zheng said pretending to be angry.
"Of course, we are brothers." John laughed loudly, and Zhou Zheng couldn't help laughing, right, so they are brothers.
