Because the people running for their lives at this time are carrying the most valuable belongings in their homes. As long as they knock the people to the ground and collect them from their bodies, they can get some silver, copper coins, and even some valuables! So those who ran away, those who put out the fire, those who were at a loss, and those who took advantage of the fire got together and turned the place where ordinary people lived into a mess!
At this time, on the roof of the He Gang's main altar, Chu Dayuan and several others were standing there and looking around. And in order to take care of Mr. Wang and several literary men, Chu Dayuan actually had someone build a small platform with wood on the roof!
A few people stood on a high place and looked at Tianjin, which seemed to give some pointers to the country. At first, a few people were chatting and laughing, but when they heard the news from the disciples below that everything was going smoothly, they all smiled happily!
But when they saw fireworks rising in several places, everyone's expressions changed! They now absolutely do not want Tianjin to be destroyed by the civil unrest directed by them! They also need to make a lot of money with the help of Tianjin!
So Mr. Wang fought with a livid face: "Gang Leader Chu, send someone out immediately to quell the chaos!"
Before he could finish speaking, Chu Dayuan was already yelling and giving orders to the disciples in the courtyard below. After receiving the order, they immediately rushed out and rushed to various places.
After Chu Dayuan finished arranging it, Mr. Wang wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and secretly said in his heart: "Don't let things go in an uncontrollable direction!"
But when a stone rolls down the hillside, it is extremely difficult to stop it! And these fireworks have become the best trigger to cause unrest! When they saw fireworks rising in the direction where they lived, they panicked!
As the saying goes, a broken family is worth a thousand dollars, and all the family foundation is already there. If the disaster of Zhurong really happens, I am afraid that the whole family will be ruined!
And those people who find that there are no fireworks within their living areas are not easy either! One thing they also know is that once chaos starts, chaos will spread! Their loved ones will be in danger!
So these people panicked and began to rush left and right in the crowd, trying to clear a path, while shouting loudly for people to get out of the way. As a result, not only did they fail to clear a path, but they shocked the crowd into even more chaos!
It's just that the crowd has been gathering here for a while, and they are already very anxious. When these people are mixed up in the crowd, they suddenly become violent! An impatient person shouted loudly: "We have been waiting here for a long time, but no one gave me an explanation for destroying their shop!"
This person's words were echoed by a large number of people, but someone in the crowd shouted: "This is Liansheng Bank. I don't know how much money is collected every day. There may be tens or even millions of taels of silver in it!"
As soon as these words came out, there was a sudden silence among the crowd! After a while, a man suddenly rushed forward, picked up rocks on the ground and threw them at the door! The rocks roared out and hit the door panel with a "thud" sound!
This sound was like a war drum, stimulating more people to go crazy! Before the rocks hit the ground, the crowd was already shouting and rushing towards the door, and then all kinds of objects were smashed on the door!
Although the door panel looks thick, no matter how thick it is, it can't withstand the beatings of so many people! It was demolished in an instant, revealing the door at the back! Immediately, the door was knocked open under the impact of everyone!
The red-eyed crowd immediately swarmed in, and a few unlucky ones were even stepped on! After all, the opening they just opened was too narrow, and there were too many people who wanted to rush in to see "tens or even millions of taels" of silver, so the unlucky ones just screamed a few times and then fell silent. !
But the people who rushed in didn't get any benefits! The first group of people who rushed in were looking for money everywhere, but the entire Lend Lease Bank in front of them was clean. There was nothing except tables, chairs and benches, not even a piece of paper!
The people who had been rushing to the third floor realized that the other party had been prepared! Immediately everyone shouted: "There is nothing upstairs, where can I find the bank?"
But where is the bank's basement so easy to find? When they finally found the basement, they were blocked by the big iron door of the basement! This big iron door looks extremely heavy, and the sound is dull when you knock it on.
It means that even if it is a foot thick, some people will believe it! Especially the row of big locks on the door is even more daunting!
But how could these locks stop the crazy people who wanted to make a fortune? It didn’t take long before they were smashed to pieces! When the door opened, the person in front of him rushed in frantically. As a result, he tripped to the ground in the darkness, and was then stepped on by someone on his back!
After paying several lives, the crazy people finally woke up. Someone lit the torch, only to find that the entire basement was empty! Now all the people who rushed in were dumbfounded!
Lend Lease Bank is now crowded with people, so it is very difficult for the news inside to spread to the outside! Especially in the basement, it was so crowded with people, people were bumping into each other, it was impossible to move! The people at the basement door want to get in, and the people inside the basement want to get out!
When the people inside shouted, "There is nothing in the basement," the crowd reluctantly became quiet. At this time, the gang leader who was hiding in the crowd to control the situation was also wrapped up in the bank. At the beginning, they were still complaining, but later they were determined to get a vote!
Anyway, the law does not punish the public. If the higher authorities investigate, the leader can just say that there is nothing they can do if so many people are ruthless! The result was so good that all the bosses were stuck in the crowd!
Now that the leaders heard that the basement was completely empty, they instinctively felt that something was wrong. They wanted to spread the news to the top, but for a moment they couldn't squeeze out the crowd! And they didn't know that as early as the first wisp of fireworks floated in Tianjin, things were already different!
The first incident to occur was at the military camp outside the city. Now there are nearly two thousand people gathered outside the gate of the military camp. These people are mainly members of the Cangzhou Gang. Because they are not familiar with the situation in Tianjin City, they are simply responsible for blocking the military camp outside the city. In addition, among the crowd were a small number of He Gang disciples who were responsible for leading the way and some people watching the excitement. .
At the beginning, they organized a crowd and shouted loudly for a while. After discovering that the people in the military camp were guarding the gate, they became more courageous! Not only did they start swearing and swearing, some people even picked up stones from the ground and threw them at the soldiers above the military camp, but it had no effect.
