People are always like this, looking at the same thing from different standpoints will come to different conclusions.

In Fern Jerome's view, the life of the Hawaiian is certainly not the same thing as the life of the British, although this idea seems absurd, but in the nineteenth century, this is the reality, the life of the white man is called life, it is worthy of attention, and the life of other races is not not life, but it is not as precious as the life of the white man.

So Fern Jerome couldn't accept that so many white people were killed in this riot.

It's just that, in Li Mu's view, this kind of thing is also normal, white people promote colonialism all over the world, commit heinous crimes all over the world, and now this small casualty is nothing, wait until the world war a few decades later, and then it will be the real punishment for white people.

Good and evil will eventually be rewarded, the way of heaven is good reincarnation, if you don't believe it, look up, who will be spared by the sky.

Of course, this poem must not be read to Fern Jerome, otherwise Fern Jerome will definitely go berserk.

By noon, Honolulu had finally calmed down, and in just three hours, more than 500 Honolulu residents had been killed, nearly 100 families had been killed en masse, more than 100 women had been insulted in the riots, and the estimated economic loss was nearly $300,000.

In contrast, more than 3,000 Native Hawaiians have been captured, and nearly 5,000 Native Hawaiians have been captured and are about to be targeted for reprisals.

"We're going to shoot these people en masse to comfort the innocent." Fern Jerome was resolute and prepared to take revenge on the thugs in the most extreme ways.

Hearing Fern Jerome's words, Li Mu didn't hurry to express his position, and exchanged glances with Michael, Benjamin, Aiden, and Chen Guofang.

It was clear that there was not much approval of Fern Jerome's proposal.

"That's five thousand, so we're going to be careful—" Michael, the nominally highest-ranking U.S. official, had to reply to Fern Jerome.

"Prudent? How cautious should we be? Do you want to release all these people? So what about those who died innocently? What about those who have lost their families in this riot? Fern Jerome was furious.

Fern Jerome is indeed very angry, looking at the number of people present, you can know that Chen Guofang and Li Mu are Chinese, and at the same time, Li Mu, Michael, and Benjamin are Americans, although Aiden has joined the nationality of the Kingdom of Hawaii, Aiden is also an American, so Fern Jerome is indeed alone.

In the previous riots, the Chinese and Americans had almost no losses, and most of the losses were mixed-race families, which were strictly standard Hawaiians, and had little to do with the Chinese and Americans.

Relatively speaking, the British suffered heavy casualties, and there were only about 200 Britons in Hawaii, but in addition to that, there were hundreds of Britons who had become Hawaiian citizens, and although they had become Hawaiian citizens, they still lived on Sunderland Street, so the British casualties in this riot were particularly serious.

It is an obvious fact that after this riot, it is not known how many Britons will choose to leave, and because of this riot, it is estimated that few Britons will be interested in Hawaii, and most Britons should grit their teeth when it comes to Hawaii in the future.

If this happens, it will mean that more than ten years of efforts of the Anglican Church will be wiped out.

Well, it's only been more than ten years, and compared with the Chinese and Americans who have been in business for more than a hundred years, the British really don't have an advantage.

"Fern, I can understand your feelings, but let's face it, after this riot, Honolulu has suffered serious losses, people, property, and so on, so it is too cheap to just make those people pay with their lives; Quelling the riots is only one aspect, we still have a lot of work to do, the city order needs to be restored, the broken families need to be repaired, and the garbage generated by the riots needs to be cleaned up, those burned houses must be rebuilt, and we still need time to investigate who is behind the scenes, so calm down Fern, it's not that we don't want those people to pay the price, it's just that if they are executed so easily, it's really a bit of a waste-" Li Mu considered the problem from the perspective of a businessman, this is a full five thousand strong laborers, Li Mu couldn't watch these people being shot.

Of course, in order to appease Fern Jerome's anger, these natives must die, but definitely not now.

"Do you still need to track it down? I'll be able to tell you right now who's behind it, if you're wondering. Fern Jerome's mood calmed down a little, but his anger still didn't subside.

Of course, I know that now this matter is clearly displayed by the lice on the bald man's head, and the one in the palace must not be involved, as well as Duke and Charles, these two people are also suspicious, and only the three of them can mobilize so many native Hawaiians.

"It's better not to jump to conclusions about this matter." Michael is not in a hurry, it must be made clear that the Anglican Church is the great enemy of the United States compared to Kalakaua I.

"Whether you come to a conclusion or not, I'm sure I'm not going to give up." Fern Jerome knew that he was at a disadvantage, and although he was unwilling, he still forced this breath to swallow.

Retaliation began that night.

Li Mu and the others captured more than 5,000 people, and some of these people were unable to escape due to their injuries, so they were captured by the rifle team and Li Mu's men.

According to Li Mu's plan, the captives were to be used for the reconstruction of Honolulu, and it was clear that the wounded could not take on this task, so on the night of the riots, they were screened and taken to the outskirts of Honolulu to be executed.

"It's a pity to shoot them all, three or four hundred of these people are just flesh wounds, they only need to be raised for ten days, and they are a good man, and Molokai Island also needs to be built, so-" Chu Wushuang's words were not finished, but everyone knew what they meant.

According to Fern Jerome's request, Li Mu and the others had to shoot more than 800 people, all of whom were wounded, of course, the degree of injury was different, and if they were carefully picked, not all of them would lose their usefulness.

In this riot, the Chinese were almost unharmed, so Chu Wushuang did not have hatred for these Hawaiians, so he was able to look at the problem objectively and fairly, yes, these Hawaiians should die, but just like Li Mu said, they should squeeze out the surplus value of these people, and then put them to death, after all, these people are also blinded, and before coming to Honolulu, they definitely don't know what is about to happen.

"It's not that easy, the Episcopals are following—" Ford Benjamin was also distressed, but there was nothing he could do.

Fern Jerome swore to punish the Hawaiians, so the Episcopal Church sent someone to oversee the execution, right next to Ford Benjamin and Chu Wushuang.

"It's fine, as long as you hold them back." Chu Wushuang was full of confidence, and he also took great pains for these three or four hundred laborers.

"It's useless, they'll have to examine the corpse later." Ford Benjamin disagreed.

"What's the matter, now we have a lot of corpses, they want to see it, let's get them a few hundred corpses, and we can guarantee that they can all be on the right number." Chu Wushuang was prepared.

On the day of the riots, the Hawaiian Rifles and Li Mu's men combined killed thousands of thugs, and the bodies of these thugs were also handled by these captives, and it would not be too easy for Chu Wushuang to cheat if he wanted to cheat.

"If it's just to hold them back, then that's fine." Ford Benjamin agreed to Chu Wushuang's suggestion.

The riot has just ended, and the Anglican people are already frightened, even if there is a thousand instructions from Fern Jerome, it is impossible for the Anglican people to monitor the whole process, if it is just to drag the Anglican people for a while, Ford Benjamin is very sure.

In fact, because of the large number of wounded, the speed of the team's progress was not fast, and now it is even more faltering, even if the soldiers in charge of escorting them scolded loudly, those wounded refused to speed up their pace.

Ford Benjamin, regardless of the speed of the team, went to the Anglican people: "Damn, I didn't expect this to happen in Hawaii, my vacation is all in vain, I should ask the headquarters for a salary increase-"

The mention of salary immediately caught the attention of the other party.

"Junma Group, it seems that the treatment is very good, I heard that your total output value exceeded 100 million US dollars last year, is this true?" A guy named Temple answered immediately.

"It's just an exaggeration, do you know how much 100 million dollars put together? There is no company in the whole of Britain that has an annual turnover of more than $100 million - "There were people who immediately denied it, and the sense of superiority between words was obvious.

"I'm sorry, but our Kufma Group's salary last year was indeed more than $100 million." Ford Benjamin is not exaggerating, just telling the truth.

"Then your salary must be very high." Temple had no shortage of envy for Ford Benjamin.

Anglican!

It sounds lofty, but it's just a church, and as the Anglican church of England, members of the Anglican Church certainly have some conveniences, but in fact, they don't get much benefit when it comes to individuals.

"It's not much, and I was just over $7,000 paid for the whole of last year—" Ford Benjamin said in a sloppy tone.

Seven thousand dollars is already a high salary in this era, and an average middle-class family will not spend more than two thousand dollars a year.

"The point is that our welfare is good, I got a house last year, and then I have a ranch in Springfield, and it's a little smaller, but if I want to, next year I'll get a farm in Indiana that's over a thousand acres, and I'll grow grass there, and then raise a herd of cows, feed a dog, and ride a horse every day to herd the cows—" Ford Benjamin was fascinated, this is not a fool, Ford Benjamin really longed for this kind of life.
