The conflict of Lotte has now reached a fever pitch, and the three human walls are already fragile and precarious under the impact of hundreds of mourning people, and the guards have asked Xiao Lotian for instructions more than once to take the initiative to fight back, but they have all been forbidden by Xiao Lotian.

"You guys just keep it for me, I want to see what flowers can be sung at the end of today's scene......" Under Xiao Letian's strict order, the three human walls composed of dozens of guards were in a semicircle, shrinking back more and more, and gradually blocked at the gate, outside were angry mourning people, and behind were businessmen who looked at each other and were frightened.

Xiao Lotian ...... You, you don't have to be arrested, you quickly surrender and turn yourself in, maybe there is still a way for you to live......" Huang Juren still wanted to stir people's hearts, but without Xiao Letian opening his mouth, the guard next to him was a slap, and his back molars were loosened. When the pigtail sun saw that the foreign guards were so savage, he shrank his neck in fright, and held back his words.

Xiao Letian looked around at all the merchants in the foreign bank, and said coldly with a kind of demeanor that Mount Tai collapsed in front of him and his face remained unchanged: "The day before yesterday, the merchants and Huang Juren and Xiao Pigtail Sun had a secret meeting in the coastal building, and didn't they discuss how to deal with me? Didn't **Ren say that he had the support of a big man in the capital? Where is the big man now?"

"Yesterday, all the big bosses gathered in the Sihai Cargo Station, what did they discuss? Do you need to repeat it to someone else? Do you think I am a fool and know anything about this today?"

Xiao Letian's eyebrows have been raised now, he looks at these people as if he is looking at a group of idiots, but it is just a farce of fighting for wealth with millions of taels of silver, and he really thinks that he has a big hand?

"As for the two of you......" Xiao Letian stared at Huang Juren and Xiao Pigtail Sun like two dead people, "You guys have been jumping up and down in tandem for the past two days, I really don't think I know at all......?

Just when Xiao Letian scolded these brainless attackers, suddenly the entire Tanggu City seemed to explode a bombshell, and the sound of a tsunami soared into the sky, compared to the hundreds of mourners who made trouble, it was not worth mentioning at all.

......The merchants in the house were frowning one by one, and the last time the group of people from Fuqing in the capital came to inspect once, which aroused a civil uprising of thousands of people, and finally although they were all persuaded to retreat, the Tongzhi Yamen and the Xietai Government still collected 30,000 taels of anti-rebellion fees from the merchants.

Today, it seems that the scale is at least three times larger, and now the purse is going to hurt again.

Everyone guessed wrong, they completely underestimated the madness of Huang Juren and Little Braided Sun, they had already instigated all the people who could be agitated this time, if not ten thousand, but eight thousand.

Huang Ye stared at Xiao Letian like a poisonous snake, and secretly said in his heart: "If there are tens of thousands of people, there is no boundary." Anything can happen in the chaos, don't blame me for being ruthless, blame you for offending the big guys, blame you for the kid who fought back too hard, don't give me face, I can't let you live ......"

In the early years of Tongzhi, Tanggu City was actually a large town of more than 10,000 people, counting the surrounding people who poured in to beg for a living, the largest number of people during the day on weekdays was only in the early 20,000s. And now, more than 10,000 people have come from the black pressure on the land, shouting chaotic slogans in their mouths, and their eyes are more excited than the New Year.

"The two devils get out of Tanggu, Xiao Letian is an evil demon sent by foreigners, that is, he wants to build that industrial zone that has lost all conscience, and he wants to kill the people of our Qing Dynasty......"

"Can't let them succeed, these bones of believers in foreign religions are engraved with evil scriptures, and they will hook your soul away at a glance, don't believe it, what kind of camera is the object that foreigners are afraid of, how can they trap the figure? That is to detain your soul broken ......"

"Kill the two devils, we don't want a bullshit special zone, the foreigners' machinery in there has to kill boys, boys and girls to sacrifice in order to work, it's all monsters that eat human flesh......"

"Three buckets of rice, three buckets of rice...... We're going to eat white bread...... "Huh, something strange seems to have come in."

Tens of thousands of people came from the northwest of Tanggu, that is, the direction of Huangju's family. If the more than 1,000 tenants at the beginning were greedy for the Huang family's rent reduction, and were purely hired sailors, the reasons for other people to join in are more complicated.

The first is the control of superstitious ideas over the ignorant people, and in the feudal dynasties, the people were convinced of Buddhism, Taoism, and the religions of various ethnic minorities. When someone tells them that the so-called special industrial zones will destroy feng shui and even take people's souls, more than 90% of the people will be convinced.

Second, in the process of Westerners knocking on China's door with strong ships and cannons, the power displayed by foreigners is somewhat too domineering, and it is difficult for the public, including the high-level, to understand, which provides soil for some bizarre superstitious rumors.

Third, it is the herd thinking that the Chinese have not changed for thousands of years, and these peasants who have not thought independently, they will only listen to the demagoguery of the readers, patriarchs, and villagers, and there are many people on that side. When thousands of villagers encouraged him to take to the streets, few people could calm down and analyze carefully, and most of them would still actively participate in it.

The so-called popular uprising is as simple as that.

The whole city of Tanggu has completely fallen into the brink of chaos, and all the smarter merchants have begun to come to the door, in this case, fools do business, and there is no obstacle between the popular uprising and the riot.

The foreigners in the harbor were also afraid, what did so many Qing 'natives' want to do when they gathered together? In the colonies of various countries, there were many examples of indigenous riots killing citizens of the civilized world. The foreigners fled to the dock one after another, boarded the sea ships one by one, and removed the pedals, and the deck was full of foreign guns, and even the gun doors of the guns had been opened.

Almost all of the merchant ships that cross the sea border have their own armed forces, and they can break through the encirclement of countless pirates, and these merchant ships themselves are not weak in combat.

Lotte has now become the center of the storm, the smart people are fleeing outside, the people who have fallen into a frenzy are gathering together, and the streets are full of the sound of 'go together, go together', at that moment it seems that killing Xiao Lotian can get a bonus of five hundred taels.

Now the people in the foreign bank could no longer sit still, and the faces of the merchants were white, and as the scolding like waves got closer and closer, they already felt that this time the matter was going to be big. At this moment, the guy from the unknown family rushed in through the back door, knelt on the ground and began to cry.

"It's overwhelming, tens of thousands of people have rushed in, let's run, shopkeeper......"

There was a sudden chaos in the foreign bank, some wanted to flee for their lives, some wanted to go home to protect their family property, and some simply caught blind and didn't know what to do. The shopkeeper Niu looked at the chaos, shook his head and sighed and patted his thigh, "If you don't do a good business, why should I get involved in this?"

Lotte has gathered all the top businessmen in Tanggu City, and all those who can rank up are here, just when this group of people wanted to rush out, Xiao Lotian suddenly jumped on the chair, pulled out his revolver and raised his hand is shot.

"Don't you want to die? 10,000 or 20,000 red-eyed mobs outside, you go out and die? They don't care what your identity is, they know that your family is rich......

The sound of gunfire and roars suddenly woke up the group of headless flies, and everyone present was dumbfounded. That's right, now there is a civil uprising outside, a riot of 10,000 people, and there is no reason to talk about it at this time, you can't find the murderer if you kill it. At that moment, all the merchants were ruthless to Huang Juren and the pigtailed grandson, and they regretted it one by one.

Under Xiao Letian's order, a group of big men rushed in the back hall, and bundles of weapons were brought out, steel knives, spears, wooden shields and even dozens of foreign guns, which were distributed in front of the guests with such a big grin, and after a while, more than 100 guards of Kung Fu Foreign Bank had all changed their outfits.

Luo Huo now has more than 30 musketeers under his command, standing in three rows of murderous waiting for Xiao Letian's order.

At this time, all the guests present were frightened and stupid, how could there be such a businessman in the world, on the day of the opening of the business, hundreds of private soldiers were ambushed in the back hall? There were even musketeers? The cattle shopkeeper closed his eyes and didn't dare to look at it after a glance, he raised his hand left and right and opened the bow to give himself more than a dozen big mouths, he really regretted it.

Huang Ye and Xiao Pigtail Sun were already shaking like chaff, and they finally knew why the big men in Beijing were so jealous of Xiao Letian, this guy was not only a scholar, but also a rogue warlord! The sky of the Qing Dynasty had not changed, was he going to rebel? Who gave him the courage to dare to show his arms in public.

The same question arose in everyone's minds, but no one dared to ask, because the murderous aura in this room was something they had never encountered in their lives.

"Everyone, listen well, the distinguished guests present are the best among all the businessmen in Tanggu City, and they are the elite! Everyone has protected me, and I will have to rely on the help of these big bosses to do business in the future." Now there is chaos in Tanggu City, it is too unsafe, let's escort the distinguished guests to the harbor and go to the Lucky ......"

"Ah......" The businessmen in the room were all stunned, what was Xiao Letian going to do? Is he going to kidnap all the merchants in Tanggu? Huang Juren reacted immediately, and a cold sweat broke out when he slapped his head.

It's bad, it's really a miscalculation, I didn't expect Xiao Lotian to have this trick, he actually has something to do with the French, he is going to arrest a city's merchants as hostages! When the time comes, he kidnaps these people and puts them on the French merchant ships, and as soon as he docks on the sea, he can sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and he will watch the chaos in Tanggu, and then the black pot will have nothing to do with him at all.

Thinking of this, Huang Ye also went crazy, jumped up and shouted, "Bosses, shopkeepers, don't be fooled! The surname Xiao is going to arrest us as hostages, and they want to kidnap us overseas......

Just when Huang Juren was screaming like a madman, the sound of horses' hooves and a burst of footsteps suddenly came from the street outside the door, and at the most critical moment, the highest military commander of Tanggu City, Xietai Ma Bao, finally arrived with his troops.

"With Lao Tzu here, I'll see who will follow the ...... Oh, I'm cāo, there are people who are secretly raising private soldiers? This is a rebellion...... The children surrounded them and disarmed me, and if they resisted, they would be killed......"

As soon as Huang Juren and the pigtailed grandson heard Ma Bao Xietai's voice, it was like hearing his father's voice, and he knelt on the ground and crawled straight out, "Ma Xietai lives me...... Ma Xietai lives my ......"

Xiao Letian looked at the two spineless leper dogs, and spat out with a mouthful of foam, "I'm sorry, I see who dares to disarm my ......" He stood at the gate, and shouted loudly under the protection of the guards, "Ma Xietai! I can only be sorry today, there are 400,000 cash in the business, and it is really inconvenient for you to come in, so you better take the soldiers to guard outside......

As soon as Ma Bao Xietai heard the words 400,000 cash, his eyes turned red at that time, "Children, this group of people must be gangsters, kill me......"

"Kill!" the three hundred green battalion soldiers shouted, and they were also fighting hard for the silver. K
