The gangster who kicked open the door of Lucian's house, saw that there was no reaction inside, so he rushed in to take a look, and then withdrew and said to the leader with an ordinary, inconspicuous face: "Brother Jackson, there is no one inside, things are very neat."
Jackson said with a friendly smile: "It took a lot of time to deceive this kid from old Cohen, I thought I would be late, hehe, although Mag and Andre are idiots and waste, but at least they are still a little useful."
The gangsters around him heard him mention Mag and Andre, and immediately remembered the tragic situation of Mag covering his lower body and howling, and couldn't help but feel a feeling of the wind blowing through his crotch, while Andre, who was standing in the front, was silently glad that if he was run away by that kid with things and money, his fate would be very tragic.
"Andre, go in and look for something strange." Jackson ordered.
Andre was about to show meritorious service, so he walked in without the slightest hesitation.
After a few minutes, Andre came out with a strange expression holding a lot of bits and pieces: "Brother Jackson, this kid has a lot of 'garbage' in his box."
Lucian sighed in his heart, these are things that have not yet had time to be dealt with, the first time he sees them, he will definitely directly associate them with garbage, if he knows that he has sold goods in the market area in the past few days, then as long as he has the IQ of a normal person, he should be able to think of a way to make a fortune.
And if the Aaron gang controls the garbage dump by the river, with their manpower, and their familiarity and mastery of the market area, it may be a "doorway" with a lot of money, so they will definitely not give up, so they have to find other ways to make money.
Jackson glanced at the garbage Andre was holding, shook his head and curled his lips: "I think I know where he got the copper, hey, the church deals with it every three days, so we never thought that there would be a 'treasure' hidden in the garbage heap by the Belém River. Garbage from the court, aristocratic quarters, manors outside the city, musicians' associations, blacksmiths' guilds, mercenary unions, etc. will all be concentrated on the banks of the Belém River. Hehe, the garbage in the eyes of the nobles may not really be garbage."
In fact, after learning from Andre and Mag that Lucian had sent the garbage from the Musicians Association outside the city, Jackson had this conjecture, and now it has only been confirmed.
After delivering this speech, Jackson smiled kindly: "Thank you Lucian, we have another road that shines with charming money, so let's thank him with our enthusiasm, go smash all the things in his house, and take the copper fair and silver nar he found for himself.
As an organized, disciplined, and genuine gangster, there are many things that need to be done every day, how can he waste time and manpower for such a small person.
The gangster thugs cheered, if Lucian's house hadn't been too small and could accommodate a limited number of people, they would have rushed in all of them.
The shattering sound of ding ding dong sounded one after another.
Lucian, who was hiding not far away, could judge based on the sound: "The clay pot is broken...... The table was smashed...... They are looking for the money I hid......" Lucian's fists clenched tightly, and he said in his heart through gritted teeth.
But Lucian also understood that if more than a dozen gangsters were there, he could only be beaten or even killed if he tried to stop them himself.
There is no status, no fists, no strength, there is no way to encounter these villains, hooligans, scoundrels, and scum, as for the law, it can be roughly guessed from their arrogant behavior that if they stand up for themselves, it will have no effect.
"If that witch hadn't gone to the cemetery to steal the bones, how could she have been burned to death?"
"Since magic still exists, dark creatures, heretics, etc. still exist, it is likely that there are still places where magic is not so discriminated against and excluded.
"The danger is great, but the harvest is also great, if you want to be rich and enjoyable, how can you go smoothly and not take a little risk? Even if you do business, you have to endure the exploitation of nobles and gangsters, as well as the competition of opponents, and if you are not careful, you will go bankrupt or even die."
Many thoughts that were usually suppressed by Lucian finally broke through the cage and echoed in his mind, like the temptation of the devil, so he didn't think about it at all, assuming that there was really a safe place to learn magic, why did the witch come to Alto?
Countless thoughts and countless desires intersected in Lucian's heart, but before he could make up his mind, he suddenly heard Aunt Alyssa's voice: "You damn villains, what are you doing?!"
After arranging for Evan to go out of the city to pick mushrooms, Alyssa heard the sound of smashing things before she went out.
She held a long wooden soup spoon and waved it as she walked towards the Aaron gangsters, trying to stop their destruction of Lucian's cabin.
"Get her aside." Jackson pointed at Alyssa and said.
The two thugs who failed to enter the house to get a handful rushed out, rolled up their sleeves, and walked viciously towards Aunt Alyssa, trying to put her aside.
However, they underestimated Aunt Alyssa's strength, and the hand that could be comparable to a bear's paw attack waved the soup spoon, and with a heavy blow, it staggered and screamed in pain.
Jackson looked around with his eyes, and immediately two more thugs followed.
Although Alyssa is not small, wide and heavy, and very intimidating, the people on the opposite side are all thugs who make a living by their fists, and after a few hard blocks that avoid the vital points, they knocked her soup spoon to the ground.
A heavy punch hit Alyssa's shoulder, even though the fat was weakened, it still made her scream in pain, but she did not flinch, still moving forward, shouting: "Stop it, the sheriff will be here soon."
Lucian, who was behind the wall not far away, finally couldn't help but scold himself after seeing Aunt Alyssa being beaten: "Still not a man?!"
Although I didn't have too strong feelings for Aunt Alyssa and Uncle Joel because I had only known each other for a few days, at this moment, Aunt Alyssa was beaten to prevent others from destroying her cabin, but she hid and didn't dare to come forward, which was really unacceptable to her.
Therefore, Lucian clenched his fists, glanced at the front of the cabin, shook his head fiercely and cursed: "!"
Then he rushed out suddenly, targeting Jackson, who was the only one left beside him!
Kicking and staring, Lucian, who was not far from the cabin, rushed to the vicinity of Jackson in just a few steps, and then pounced on it.
At this time, Jackson reacted, turned his head to look this way with a surprised face, but before he could do anything else, Lucian slammed into his body, knocking him to the ground, and the two scuffled together.
Lucian pressed his body and left hand hard to hold Jackson's hands to prevent him from pulling out the dagger that might be on his body, while his right hand desperately tried to reach for Jackson's throat, as long as he held his throat and restrained him, he could temporarily control the situation.
But Jackson was able to become the leader of Aaron's gang, not only by relying on his sharpness and ruthlessness, he was also a thug, so he was experienced, and while taking advantage of the situation to roll, not giving Lucian a chance to pinch his throat, the hand that was held down moved slightly with his elbow, hitting Lucian's ribs again and again.
There is no room to move, and the elbow strike does not have much power, but the ribs themselves are a more sensitive and fragile place, under Jackson's frequent blows, Lucian is in pain, but Lucian, who has experienced Gary's blows, knows that he can't panic at this time, he must hold on, so he endures the pain, and his right hand finally touches Jackson's throat.
Just when Lucian was about to squeeze it hard, his right rib hurt, and the whole person flew up and fell heavily to the ground.
Relying on his rich experience, Jackson finally supported the gangsters around him to rush over and kick Lucian to the side.
And the thugs in the house, the thugs who stopped Alyssa also ran to the thugs at this time.
Lucian was just about to stand up, but his toes and fists fell like a torrential rain, making him unable to resist at all, so he could only calmly hold his head, roll it into a shrimp shape, and protect the vital points, while the rest of the place was beaten by the gangsters.
He was beaten to the ground and rolled around, and the pain hit his mind, but Lucian still maintained the minimum calm and beaten posture, otherwise it would be miserable to be kicked to the vital part like a mag.
At this time, Lucian had a feeling of his soul floating, retching and wanting to vomit, everything around him became trance-like, the sound was noisy, as unreal as a shaky movie, and Aunt Alyssa's cry seemed to come from another world from a distance: "Let go of him......"
In such an environment, Lucian finally made up his mind: "We must master inhuman and extraordinary powers, even if it is magic!"
"Even if you borrow usury, you have to raise enough money to learn words in a short period of time!"
Jackson looked at Lucian, who was being beaten to the ground, moved his arm that was a little painful just now, went up and kicked him hard, and then said to his thugs: "Okay, that's it, enough lessons, this kid has a friend who is Sir Wayne's official knight's attendant, there's no need to kill people."
If you want to kill someone for this level of matter, and you are also a good friend of a certain knight's attendant, the Aaron gang has long killed Alto to the point of blood, but in fact, the Aaron gang can always control the city gate area and some market areas, relying on not doing things too much, otherwise the real controllers of Alto, the nobles, bishops, and priests with terrifying powers would have made them disappear long ago, even if it was rumored that Longsang? Aaron is inextricably linked with a certain big man, and it is no exception.
Jackson looked at Lucian, who was bleeding from his nose and bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and seemed to be dizzy, and laughed: "Actually, I admire your mind, but boy, you are still too immature, well, things outside the city, I hope you don't be greedy anymore, otherwise, it will not just be beaten, I believe Mag will really want to discuss life with you."
Controlling the garbage dump by the river could not be hidden, so Jackson never thought of killing people to silence them.
After saying that, Jackson saw Lucian looking at him with a bloody face, and replied in a hoarse and simple voice: "Okay."
This made Jackson feel a little weird, but he didn't think much about it, and greeted the gangster thugs to leave triumphantly with the items Lucian hadn't had time to deal with, as well as the forty-five copper fells found from him.
