"I'm sorry, I won't be willful anymore. I will always be obedient from now on. I will do whatever you ask me to do, woo woo woo..."
"Brother Xiao, you scared me to death. I'm really afraid that I'll never see you again in my life. Wuwuwu..."
After human beings have experienced the critical point of life and death, their emotions are always the most fragile. Huniu and Fuhui actually dared to take such initiative in broad daylight. This was already a shocking move in the Qing Dynasty. Everyone on the street was dumbfounded, even the calm and composed Ninth Commander was stunned, with his mouth open at a loss.
"Oh, this guy is really a foreign devil. He rolls around on the street like this in broad daylight? And there is a Manchu aunt in there? He is really talented, talented..."
When Xiang Shaolong and the others saw what was going on, a group of people rushed forward and lined up in a circle, facing outwards and facing inwards, and strictly protected the three people, thus saving everyone present from embarrassment.
In stark contrast to Xiao Letian's excitement, Ma Bao and Huang Juren were escorted away by Zhou Tongzhi. Yesterday they were well-known big shots in Tanggu, but now they have completely turned into two miserable chickens.
"Brother Zhou, for the sake of our long friendship, please send someone to deliver a message to my family. No matter how many times you can, I beg you...Brother Zhou, as long as you help me report the message, I will I'll tell you the cellar where I hide my money..." Huang Juren burst into tears, which made Zhou Mingkui very sad.
"Brother Huang, if I had known today, why would I do it in the first place? Now you know the depth of the water in the capital, why did you bother to jump in? Well, I will help you for a while..." After saying this, Zhou Mingkui leaned over and walked from Huang's side. Juren got the exact location of the silver cellar from his mouth.
As soon as Zhou Mingkui pouted, a policeman ran out of the city, apparently to report the news to the Huang family.
The entire riot in Tanggu City started at about 10:30 a.m. on foreign time. It was not until around 4 o'clock in the afternoon when Huang Ju and Ma Bao were arrested that the entire riot began to gradually subside.
At this time, in Tanggu City, dozens of dark smoke pillars shot straight into the sky. Most of the shops along the street, except those near the harbor, had been robbed. These mobs had long forgotten their true purpose today, and they could not even think of Lotte. Who is the boss of the foreign company?
When the five cavalry squads under the Ninth Marshal began to cooperate with the policemen and government servants from Tongzhi Yamen to sweep the streets, the riot began to dissipate at the speed of an avalanche. Originally, this popular uprising was not a spontaneous act after the people were suppressed. Although the participants were poor, they had not yet reached the point of rebellion.
These people were only involved because of a little greed in their hearts. In addition, there were people in the crowd who were secretly instigating the situation, which made the situation more and more out of control. Please come to more and faster chapters. But now, the news of Xiao Zhuansun's death has spread throughout Tanggu City. His disciples and grandchildren immediately fled when they saw that something was going wrong.
Not only them, but now even the special forces deployed by Xiao Letian among the mobs have received the latest instructions. The mission has been completed and everyone has gradually begun to evacuate.
"Folks, please disperse... Lord Ninth Commander has led his army into the city. If you don't run away, they will massacre the city. Go home quickly..."
"Run away quickly. The massacre has already begun at the dock. The Green Camp soldiers are causing chaos and the Hunan Army has killed hundreds of people. Run quickly, run away..."
"You guys, why don't you run away for your lives? Isn't it too little for you to grab oil and water? If you continue to grab it, your lives will be lost..."
Almost at the same time, various voices of dissuasion sounded from the mob. The 'folks' who had just led them to smash up shops changed their appearance in the blink of an eye and began to give in to these people. Please come to more and faster chapters.
Facts have proved that loose and unorganized people always have no long-term prospects. When their interests and fears can no longer support their fanaticism, they will instantly transform into the obedient people like the little white rabbits they used to be, timidly hiding at home and trying to Avoid the reckoning after autumn. Of course, there will definitely be some unlucky ones who are killed, but most people think they are the lucky ones and can escape.
When the people fled like an avalanche under the threat of cavalry and police officers, two of Xiao Letian's men met with Zhou Tongzhi's police officers in a looted warehouse. After Ku's location was determined, the two looked at each other, smiled coldly and disappeared.
After a while, among the crowd of refugees in the northwest corner of Tanggu City, a man in gray suddenly jumped and cursed in the street, "What the hell is wrong with us? We got up so early in the morning and have been waiting for a long time." You didn’t get in, you didn’t get any benefits, and you just went home in vain?”
The four to five hundred confused people were stunned for a moment, and the words that followed gradually made the people a little unhappy. Update as soon as possible
"Folks! Think about it, why did we come to the city today? Didn't we just come because Huang Juren and Xiao Zhuansun promised to reduce the rent for us? Now we have to go back without doing anything. This morning and night have been in vain. Have a busy day?"
"Look at what you have in your arms. Is there anything decent? You, you, you... you are worthless, you don't have a share of silver and foreign money, but you can still get two ounces of copper coins! Look, do you want to grab these shabby shoes? You should also treat this old rag as a treasure..."
Following the instigation of the men in gray, the common people who were like hooded flies seemed to suddenly wake up from their boredom. They looked at the rags in their hands that were not worth two copper coins, and gradually became unwilling to accept them.
"Fellows, Huang Juren asked us to attack Lotte and Foreign Holdings to fight with the Japanese devils. Only in this way can we reduce the rent. We went back in such a dejected manner. How can we be stupid enough to reduce the rent?"
At this time, another man in black suddenly said, "You said it simply, now the Hunan Army in the city has started killing people, should we go and die?"
"Yes, I heard that both Huang Ju and Xiao Zhusun were arrested by the army. Even if we continue to go to foreign companies, no one will reduce our rent!" There was a lot of discussion in the crowd.
When the mood of the people present became more and more chaotic, and people's unwillingness grew more and more, the man in gray suddenly jumped onto a broken cart on the roadside and said, "Folks, we can't go to Tanggu City, but We can go to Huang Ju's house to reason with him! The man named Huang was arrested, but his wife and son are still there. Let's ask them to reduce the rent, which is three buckets of rice..."
"Folks, you haven't even had a hot meal from morning to night, and you've been wasting your time without getting any benefits. Please come to more and faster chapters. I was the one who made the first move, with a lot of foreign money and dimes. If we are unlucky enough to kick in two pairs of worn-out shoes, it will be considered a benefit? Are you willing to do so?"
The people were already angry. They were already very hungry after a busy day, and there was nothing good in their hands. When they heard that the three measures of rice would be ruined, everyone was going crazy now.
"We are not willing...we are unwilling..." The crowd suddenly went crazy.
"The Huang family's house is five miles northwest. Let's go together and ask for an explanation..." The man in gray raised his arms and shouted. The people present completely lost their minds. They only had one thought in their hearts, that is, I can't suffer a loss. , whoever doesn’t go is a fool. Update as soon as possible
The team of several hundred people attracted many mobs along the way, and the short five-mile journey soon turned into a mighty team of a thousand people, aiming directly at the Huang family mansion.
It was already getting dark at about five o'clock in the evening, and it was still very bright outside during the long summer day. Outside the Huang family's mansion, beside the ruins of the fire that still radiated warmth, Huang Juren's daughter-in-law, that pig-like woman, was sitting on a chair, looking at the black smoke in the city with vicious eyes.
"Burn it, burn it. It's better to burn all the Tanggu. My food has been burned, so don't even think about it..." The flesh on the face of the fat pig-like woman was trembling, which showed the pain in her heart. How deep is the cruelty.
The fat woman has been sitting here for a day. She is excitedly waiting for the man to bring her good news. In her heart, her man is the earth emperor in Tanggu, and there is nothing that cannot be done. Update as soon as possible
At this time, a timid little girl next to her suddenly whispered, "Madam, why are the smoke plumes in all directions in the city? Ordinarily, the master is just going to deal with a foreign trader. Even if there is a fire, it should be in one place... Besides, , why are the voices coming from far away so scary..."
"Shut up! You little prodigal, how dare you curse the master..." The fat woman scratched the maid's face with her long nails like crazy, and twisted and pinched her with all her strength.
"You are shameless. If you dare to curse me, I will sell you to a brothel tomorrow. I will let you curse...I will let you curse again..." The vicious woman pinched her after she cursed, and soon the maid's face was There would be no good meat. Please come to more and faster chapters.
"I don't dare anymore. Madam, I don't dare anymore. Please spare me..." The talkative maid knelt on the ground and tried to hide but she didn't dare. She just used her arms helplessly to resist. But none of the other maids around him dared to persuade him.
At this moment, a shouting sound suddenly came from the avenue. It was not clear at first, but after a while, everyone present could understand it.
"Go together... go together... three buckets of rice... we want three buckets of rice..." The voice got louder and louder, and finally it came over like a tsunami. At this time, the fat woman finally woke up from her boredom. She stared blankly at the smoke and dust rising on the avenue, her mouth wide enough to stuff two steamed buns.
Suddenly, a dark shadow emerged from the small woods around the corner. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a dense crowd of people.
"Let's go together, let's go together... Three buckets of rice, our three buckets of rice..."
The crowd shouted violently and rushed towards the Huang family mansion. Everyone's eyes were filled with greedy light, and some even had scarlet eyes. God knew what he was going to do soon.
"Come in... There are thousands of taels of gold and countless silvers in the Huang family's mansion... Break down the door and let's grab it..." The man in gray, who was running wildly, knew that the crowd was already excited, so why not take action now?
Only then did Huang Juren's wife realize what was going on. These crazy untouchables were trying to ransack her home. "Mom..." The fat woman ran towards the mansion at a speed she had never seen before.
"Close the door quickly! The banker is protecting the village..." The fat woman shouted as she ran, but she had forgotten that most of the bankers who were looking after the home and the home had been taken away by her man today. Now there are only men in the mansion who can fight. Not even thirty.
"Charge...kill...Huang Juren has been sent to prison and will be executed soon. Stop working for them and rob together..."
Thousands of mobs rushed over like a tidal wave. More than thirty bankers were frightened and the two groups fought. Later, when they heard that the master was gone and no one dared to stop them, they dispersed on the spot.
"You guys who have killed a thousand swords, stay here. Protect me, and I will give you a reward... You ungrateful bastards, I will kill you eight generations ago..." The fat woman cried and rolled on the ground in tears.
While she was scolding, a kick suddenly flew from the side and knocked her to the corner. "Damn it, I've had enough of you for a long time. You deduct our wages every day, and you curse and beat us when you open your mouth. I'm the first one to rob you today...Brothers, rob us..."
Under the leadership of a banker, the banker and the maid servants who were oppressed by Huang Juren and his wife all joined the robbery army, and the Huang family mansion was completely destroyed.
