New Gods of North America

Wayne went to church and pretended to chat with Pastor Hake for a while.

Inesha's situation,

This is relatively rare in the Holy Spirit Church.

They are the kind of corrupt people whose crimes are not serious, whose expertise is outstanding, whose reputation is relatively good, and whose harm is not too great.

Only then can you enjoy the preferential treatment of “serving sentence outside prison”.

So Inissa came to Blackrock Town with them at first,

They were assigned here not only to assist Pastor Hake in his investigation, but also as the church's extra-staff armed force.

The reason why Inissa would cooperate is also very simple:

——The "sentence" given to her by the Holy Spirit Church is neither short nor particularly long. And it can be offset by exchanging contribution points.

It's not worth it to "escape from prison". If you actively reduce your sentence, you can just endure it for a few years and it will be over.

Therefore, under the premise that Pastor Hake is easy to talk to,

It might be reasonable for Inesa to go to Kanks City for a few days occasionally.

But if he followed Wayne all the way to the East Coast and crossed half of America, it would be almost like "escaping across the border."

Not to mention Inesa herself,

Even Pastor Hake and a large group of people from the Exorcist Association will probably have to suffer the consequences.

So, although Wayne himself wanted to take the Exorcist Girl from the Extraordinary World Encyclopedia as his own grandfather,

But this does seem difficult, and Inesa has no reason to "escape from prison".

It is estimated that there is a high probability that it will be abandoned.

At best, we can ask Roose Bolton, who is under the command of Tywin's priest.

See if there is any compromise or a workaround.

If it really doesn't work out, I will always come back after a few years.

——As for why you should go out for a walk, the reason is very simple. In a country like America, finding ways to "accumulate more capital" is a life path that seems unlikely to go wrong.

Before the steam train line is repaired, the situation in the town will not change much. Wayne also wants to go out for a walk and see the world, and try to see how far he can get with some "initial capital".

…

After leaving the church,

Wayne stopped by the bank and exchanged some banknotes that were also useful on the East Coast.

Then Wayne planned to bring the investment capital plus living expenses.

The total amount exceeded 6,000 US dollars.

The Constantines were a Puritan family at the time, and their life was not luxurious.

So they didn't have much cash savings left - because they had exchanged them for land, shares, books, antiques, wine and other things, and most of them were now locked in the Wayne family's cellar or in a safe in the cellar.

Uncle Benjamin did earn a lot of bounties.

However, he was more casual when it came to spending money, often showing a bit of generosity, and he was the kind of person who couldn't even keep his family fortune.

So, under the premise that Wayne has no intention of selling his "family assets" yet,

The $6,000 was actually all the cash he could take with him right now.

Anyway, I have invested this much capital first.

You can make as much as you can at that time. If you lose money, you can still find things and land when you return to your hometown, so you won’t lose everything in one go.

By the way, Wayne can only "bring" this money over himself.

Although local deposits, withdrawals and exchanges are still convenient in banks these days, the inter-regional remittance business is still not very good.

For example, Wayne has no way of depositing all the money into the "account" and then withdrawing it there.

The best you can do is exchange them for checks and then cash them.

However, a check is also a bearer instrument.

Just like banknotes, if a check is lost or stolen, it is gone. It is even more troublesome to exchange large checks. It is better to carry banknotes with you, which are more convenient to use.

It is not easy to be "caught in one swoop".

…

Then Wayne thought of Uncle Benjamin's little fan, and bought some fishing rods and nets to send to Mr. Stern's plantation for Will.

I went to Tecumseh's tribe and did a "re-examination" for his people.

After a happy farewell night in the pub,

The next day, Wayne, his two sisters and Parker arrived at the steam train station in a horse-drawn carriage driven by little Taylor.

Since Inesa was only planning to visit Kankers for a few days, she only brought one suitcase;

Lina is the type who always travels light, so she uses a backpack for everything, and the extra suitcases are used to carry Parker.

At this time, Parker

Not only was he not put in a box, but like Wayne, he was carrying a suitcase in his left and right hands.

Even Lina had to help Wayne carry an extra package.

"Oh, damn. Wayne, how much luggage do you need to bring?" Lina couldn't help but complain.

Little Taylor was very experienced. After getting off the carriage, he put out the small trailer he had prepared, and then piled the boxes up one by one:

"Wayne actually only has one box of his own, and the rest are gifts given to Wayne by the townspeople. Some of them might be needed on the road or would expire if left for too long, so we put them in the boxes. Some of the rest were not brought here."

"Why are there so many?!" Lina didn't understand.

"It was actually the same when I first went out to study. Most of it was actually food... ah, got it."

Little Taylor took out a piece of paper and began to read:

"Uncle Sam gave you ten pounds of dried beef, Tony gave you two bottles of single malt whiskey, and Mrs. William gave you a large piece of homemade cheese...

“They probably thought you would go there slowly in a carriage like before, and probably wanted you to eat on the way…Wow, why did the mayor give you such an expensive cigar? I didn’t notice it before.

"There are some things that you can't eat, like the pocket watch my aunt gave me and the small bag of gold dust that Tecumseh gave me..."

Little Taylor folded the paper and stuffed it into Wayne's pocket:

"Anyway, you can go back and take a look at them yourself. You should be able to finish off some of them on the way. The valuable gifts are also placed separately."

Then he gave Wayne a hug and said, "Fortunately you don't like farewells and ran away secretly on purpose. Otherwise, Mrs. William and the others would cry every time they said goodbye, like a funeral. It was too tragic. I wish you a happy college life! Don't fail to graduate!"

"Thank you so much!"

Wayne and his friends said goodbye to little Taylor.

After the steam train blew its whistle loudly, it gradually accelerated and began to "eat, eat, and wander around".

Before heading straight to Virginia on the east coast, Wayne and his team first had to go to,

It is the city of Kanks where the Hunter Association is located.

Kansas City is the largest city in Kansas today, but it is not the capital of Kansas.

And the interesting thing is -

"Why do you want to divide the city of Kanks into two?" Lina asked, holding a map.

As the city of Kansas City has grown, its actual territory actually spans two states.

The other half, which developed earlier, is located in the neighboring state of Missouri, across the river from this half located in Kansas.

Since the laws of each state are only effective within the boundaries of the state,

Therefore, the city of Kanks was divided into two parts that seemed to be one and the same.
