People in America started by developing the Yellow Turban Army.
Chapter 21 Retaliation
[Ding! Detected host's retaliatory behavior, very much in line with the spirit of Han Chinese men.]
The difference between us Han Chinese and the barbarians lies in our martial spirit, our strong will, and our determination to avenge wrongs and wipe away insults.
The barbarian tribes on the border have come with malicious intent and scheming. As Confucius said, "Repay kindness with kindness, and repay injustice with justice."
Although they are not enemies of parents or brothers, I will not use their bedding or pillow, I will not serve in office, I will not share the world with them, I will not visit them in the marketplace or court, and I will not turn my troops against them to fight.
But one must avenge one's own humiliation!
A son who does not seek revenge is not a true son!
If a subject does not punish the traitors, he is not a true subject!
A gentleman will not fail to avenge himself!
Therefore, the Han virtuous man's revenge was in accordance with the principles of the Gongyang Commentary on the Spring and Autumn Annals!
Confucius said: "Reward those who are in harmony and punish those who are not; this is the way to govern a country and bring peace to the nation."
Therefore, as a reward, the tax revenue of this territory will remain unchanged for all time to come.
Note: Congressional and state legislature documents have been distributed to your inventory.
No... I have no problem giving you a reward, but what do you mean I'm retaliating?
Chen Ping'an thought to himself, "This damn system is slandering me! It's slandering me!"
However, looking at the anxious expression on the face of Lucas, the neighboring rancher who, despite his gunshot wound, tried to hop over on one leg to stop him from making the call.
It dawned on me that in America, people would avoid calling an ambulance if they were injured.
Oh!
It seems that Lin Zhiyong once said that ambulances are very expensive.
Even if it's expensive, we have to pay the money, after all, the two people in front of us have been shot!
Moreover, the system's prompt was correct; Lucas and Daniel arrived in a menacing manner, carrying guns.
Moreover, the system indicated that these two scoundrels were scheming and wanted to trick him.
If Lin Zhiyong hadn't been here today, if he hadn't had a gun, no, he said he was the 7th place winner in the Canadian quick-draw shooting competition.
Perhaps, these two really did manage to get themselves into trouble today with guns.
After all, I am an Easterner, and I can be fierce at times. But when it comes to situations that do not involve personal dignity or national grudges, backing down seems to be an acceptable choice.
To put it simply, he might compromise if faced with a gun.
Moreover, the other party had a valid reason for asking him for money: he needed to share the cost of the fence at the boundary between the two places.
Even if this was the fence erected by the other party before I bought the abandoned mining town.
But what if the other party insists on you paying money?
He has a gun!
As for how much, that's up to him to say!
I don't know if this counts as extortion in the United States. If it doesn't, then I might have to suffer in silence.
So the system message said that the other party came with ulterior motives, and that calling this service to call an ambulance for them was considered revenge.
Okay, looking at it this way, it really does seem like revenge!
I feel a little good, what should I do?
He ignored Lucas, who was jumping up and down, and instead looked at his inventory space.
Sure enough, two more documents had appeared in Chen Ping'an's 100-cubic-meter storage space.
He knew the contents without even taking it out; the information appeared in his mind the moment his eyes fell upon it.
Congressional documents state that as long as the United States exists, no matter how prosperous your abandoned mining town becomes in the future, you will still pay federal taxes at today's rates.
This file is valid indefinitely.
A document from the California legislature states that as long as California remains a state of the United States, your abandoned mining town, no matter how prosperous it becomes in the future, will still pay state taxes at today's rates.
In addition, all the strange taxes under Chen Ping'an's name, except for state and federal taxes, will be abolished in his territory. These taxes include rainwater tax, sunburn tax, exclusive product sales tax, single person tax, soft drink tax, divorce tax, etc.
This document has permanent legal force (unless the United States ceases to exist)!
If you calculate it this way, after removing all those exorbitant taxes and levies, the tax amount seems to be lower than it is now, it seems to be more than 3000 a year.
From the system notification to receiving the reward, it only takes a moment.
After Chen Ping'an received the reward and understood the contents of the reward document, the somewhat miserable neighbor, the farmer, was already hopping and tumbling towards him, his face contorted in pain and his gunshot wound contorted.
They were jumping and shouting at the same time.
"No, no, no, an ambulance isn't needed..."
Although Lin Zhiyong is thin and his height of 1.78 meters is not considered tall in the United States, his weapon, though rather short, is nicknamed "Truth".
So when he placed his right hand on his holster and extended his left hand to block the other man's hopping forward, Lucas had no choice but to stop.
Lin Zhiyong stared at the other man, his face grim as he gave his warning: "Buddy, we can't go any further!"
This is a gunshot wound, and it happened on our land.
Listen, the gunshots are ringing out now.
Therefore, we not only need to call an ambulance, but we also have to call the police.
Good luck, buddy!
Lin Zhiyong gave the other party a warning, making him dare not come any closer, before returning to Chen Ping'an's side and giving him a big thumbs up.
"Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!"
"I never expected this!"
Chen Ping'an, who was carefree and easygoing in college, has learned to trick people after a few years!
Since you've already called an ambulance, and the territory is yours, you should also call the police.
After all, a shot was fired, and both men had gunshot wounds.
Fortunately, my pickup truck has a dashcam, and it even has both internal and external audio recording capabilities.
They can't pin this on us!
Calling the police now is to avoid future trouble; even Lin Zhiyong had never encountered something like this before.
So, just to be on the safe side, he contacted his lawyer, who then asked him about the whole process in detail, reassured him, and even taught him what to say when the police arrived.
He was also taught to provide any assistance he could to the two who had been shot.
Of course, it's fine not to rescue him; he doesn't have that responsibility. We'll deal with it when the time comes.
This place is very remote; it's practically a deserted area!
Two calls came in during that time, one from an ambulance and the other from the police.
When asking someone's location in the US, there are usually no landmarks because the wilderness is so vast. So, when asking someone's location in the wilderness, the US asks for their coordinates, specifically latitude and longitude.
To be honest, if he were alone, Chen Ping'an wouldn't know how to show them the latitude and longitude. Even though he had learned it when he was a child, he had forgotten it now.
Fortunately, Lin Zhiyong was there. He was now a long-time Los Angeles resident. He glanced at the navigation and gave Chen Ping'an a coordinate, which Chen Ping'an then relayed.
The police car arrived very quickly (almost half an hour later).
When they arrived, they found that the farmer, Lucas, had already gone into shock due to excessive blood loss. Lin Zhiyong and Chen Pingan tried to stop the bleeding by using a belt to tighten the area above his thigh injury, but they were unable to do so.
On the contrary, Daniel's vital blood vessels were not damaged, and the bleeding did not flow as quickly after his leg was restrained.
However, his lips were also grayish-white, but fortunately he was still conscious.
Who called the police?
Although Chen Ping'an explained things quite clearly when he called the police, his Chinese-accented English always sounded somewhat incoherent to the Los Angeles locals.
All they knew was that two bastards drove into Eastern territory with guns and then inexplicably started fighting amongst themselves.
The one who called the police was the landowner, an Easterner.
