Batavia is a famous city, and it and Manila are two representatives of Europeans in the South Seas. Before the pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info, there was a Macau in the Far East, but now it is a thing of the past.

Lin Chu, a Chinese traitor who made his fortune in the Hongxi tragedy, and his family lived in Batavia.

Lin Chu's whistleblowing directly ignited the massacre of the Dutch, and the blood of 20,000 Chinese victims paved the way for the Lin family. Lin Chu, who was deeply trusted by the Dutch, soon went from an ordinary Chinese leader to a Kambitan appointed by the Dutch.

Kapitan is a transliteration of the Dutch word kapitein, which originally means 'chief', and is the overseas Chinese consular system implemented by the Dutch in the Nanyang colony, that is, the overseas Chinese leaders who come to do business, make a living, and settle down are appointed as the leaders of the overseas Chinese to assist the colonial government in handling the affairs of the overseas Chinese.

Backed by the big tree of the Dutch, the Lin family has enjoyed wealth for 30 years. Until the advent of the Fu Han Army.

The Lin family never imagined that one day China would be able to challenge the rule of the Dutch in Nanyang, and the intervention of the Fu Han army in Nanyang caused a great split among the entire Nanyang Chinese -- either Han or Yi. Neutrals quickly disappeared within a year or two of the introduction of the nationality system. And a person like the Lin family, who has an absolute black history, is impossible to vote for 'Han'.

The Lin family had no intention of turning their backs on the Netherlands from the beginning, because they relied on the Netherlands to seek too many benefits and gain a high status. What if you take refuge in the Han army? China is unlikely to give the Lin family better treatment.

As a result, where did he think that the Han Army didn't want him at all. Moreover, in the past few years, no Chinese businessmen from China have done business with the Lin family, and the Lin family really realized that their family has really been separated by the imperial court in the north.

said that their family was regarded as an enemy by Chen Han, and they looked up to the Lin family too much. In a word, it is the person who will be erased in the future.

By the time the dust settles on Sulu's affairs, there will be fewer and fewer people who hesitated before. The taxonomy of the entire Nanyang Chinese has also become clearer.

This put the Lin family under a lot of pressure.

But the Lin family knew that the Dutch and Spaniards were under more pressure during this time. The exodus of large numbers of Chinese from Luzon, Java and Sumatra to Borneo and Singapore, Belitung and other places has had a significant impact on the economies of Batavia and Manila, not just a military threat.

Fortunately, in the past two years, those Chinese have returned, and more importantly, more and more Chinese businessmen have appeared in various parts of Nanyang. The Dutch and Spaniards, on the one hand, could only watch with joy at the increase in income, and on the other hand, with annoyance at the rapid increase in China's influence.

But Batavia is still the most important trading city in the South Seas, and its influence is much greater than that of Manila, which relied on the treasure ship trade. The latter is now not even as good as Singapore. Pontianak's trade radiation capacity is about to catch up with Manila.

After the defeat of Sulu, the Spaniards were a bit closed off from the rest of the country. Moreover, the indigenous attacks on Mindanao have also greatly limited their energy and strength.

There were relatively few Chinese who came to Manila in Nanyang, and the Dutch paid more attention to the policy of trade, so that more Chinese were concentrated in the East Indies in addition to exploring Indochina and Malay.

The Lin family can feel a deep influence in recent years.

Many Chinese who went to Nanyang looked at the Lin family's eyes like dead people, which made them shudder when they thought about it.

And two years ago, the sixty-eight-year-old Lin Chu swallowed his last breath in a state of worry, and his eldest son Lin Chunguang inherited the title of Lin Chu Jiabidan. But Lin Chunguang's Jiabidan is not stable at all. He didn't have a few men under him. When those Chinese with Chinese nationality returned to Batavia, they formed the Chinese Chamber of Commerce themselves, and they did not recognize Lin Chunguang's leadership at all. Without real power, Kapitan is just a 'bridge' between the Dutch and the Chinese, and it is not even as good as the maintenance chairman during the anti-Japanese war, and it is infinitely equivalent to a translator.

The arrival of a Dutch navy from Europe, coupled with the massive expansion of the Dutch colonial army, has also greatly increased Batavia's military spending in recent years. These expenses have to be borne by the locals, and part of the pressure has been transferred to the likes of Lin Chunguang.

But the pressure is just pressure, grit your teeth, and spend a little more money at most to get over it. The Lin family also expects the Dutch to live a long life in Nanyang. But today, a thunderbolt suddenly hit on a sunny day, and Lin Chunxin, the second eldest of the Lin family in Surabaya, was arrested.

He was personally ordered by the current governor of Batavia, Jacob von Louislen.

Lin Chunguang had just finished lunch, and was stunned when he heard this information, and the entire Lin family was in a mess.

Lin Chunguang immediately went out to inquire about the news, and Lin Chunxiao, the fourth elder of the Lin family who lived in Batavia together, and a son-in-law of the Lin family also rushed to Lin Chunguang's house as quickly as possible. Without getting the exact information, they couldn't find the right place to move. And the Lin family used their connections to inquire, but they couldn't hear any news. They could only wait for Lin Chunguang's return.

The atmosphere of the entire Lin family became very gloomy, as if a layer of dark clouds was hanging over the head of the mansion. The servants in the house did not dare to speak loudly, they walked carefully, and they were afraid to make a sound when serving tea and pouring water.

The four maids in the lobby held their breath even more, and they didn't dare to breathe, wishing that the whole person could be invisible.

A group of old and young masters in the front hall, the second and third generations of the Lin family have all arrived; There is also a group of ladies and wives in the backyard, the eldest lady, the young lady, the fourth grandmother, and the aunt and grandmother are all here.

What kind of crime did Lin Chunxin's family commit against the Dutch, and Jacob could take people directly without saying a word?

Endless fear swept through everyone's hearts, and the eldest lady of the Lin family, the Zhou family, who was nearly fifty years old, could not see a trace of blood red on her whole face. Ye, the eldest daughter-in-law beside her, was holding a handkerchief tightly with both hands, afraid that she had already torn the handkerchief.

The Ye family, who is nearly 30 years old, was born in a large Chinese family in Jawa, and the original family roots were in Semarang, but after the Hongxi tragedy that year, the Chinese power in Batavia plummeted, and a large area of interests was left there, and Ye's grandfather was the first batch of Chinese who rushed to seize the 'territory'.

People die for money, birds die for food, and that's really the truth.

Forty years have passed since the Hongxi tragedy, and the Chinese community in Batavia has long since returned to its former level, and has made great strides in the tide of commercial development in recent years.

After a long time, the sun had set. Lin Chunguang, who was exhausted, returned to the house, and the family in the front and back yards gathered together, regardless of gender.

"Sir. Second brother, what's going on? ”

Zhou immediately asked his subordinates to send a cup of ginseng tea to Lin Chunguang to take.

The family looked at Lin Chunguang with sparkling eyes, hoping to hear the good news. Although the latter has a black and gray face, it does not look like a good sign. Lin Chunguang took two sips of tea, put the tea cup on the table, and said dejectedly: "Second brother, this time there is a big disaster." ”

"Some of the dirty goods he collected at a shop in Surabaya were treasured by the royal family of the Yogyakarta Sultan."

"Among them, there is a Malay sword, which is the ancestral saber of the Sultan of Yogyakarta, which was bought by a Chinese merchant from Qiongzhou for fifty eagles. Somehow the news came out, the Sultan of Yogyakarta was angry about the loss of his ancestral sword, and when he heard the news, he immediately sent someone to arrest the Chinese merchant and search for the sword. Immediately beat people up and killed a few people. The Dutchman from Surabaya found the second child's shop again and found a lot of dirty goods from the cellar.

There are not only Yogyakarta Sultans, but also a lot of Western jewelry. Among them is a pocket watch encrusted with gemstones, a relic of Bruggen, the magistrate of Bandung, who was killed last year......"

Lin Chunguang's head was about to explode when he heard the news.

He grew up in Batavia since he was a child, how could he not know the energy of the Sultan of Yogyakarta? It was the tallest person standing among all the natives of Java.

Although Mataram was divided, the Yogyakarta Sultanate, who inherited most of the power of the Mataram Sultanate, was still one of the most powerful people in the whole of Jatalam.

And Lin Chunxin's matter also involved the Dutch themselves.

Lin Chunguang's troubled eyebrows, eyes, and mouth were about to wrinkle.

"The Dutch are very concerned about this now."

Lin Chunguang's attention was all focused on the relics of the Dutch who were killed, leaving the Yogyakarta Sultan aside, as for the Chinese businessman who was arrested and beaten by the Yogyakarta Sultan, as well as the people who died in between, he subconsciously ignored them.

The same is true of the Lin family, no one cares about the life or death of a Chinese businessman, and no one cares about the death of several Chinese.

Ye's face changed suddenly, and she opened her mouth to say that the Lin family should not confuse the point, but looking at the current situation of the Lin family, thinking of the differences between the Lin family and the Ye family, and her status in the Lin family in the past two years, she bit her lip and closed her mouth.

"The governor's palace and the church will make silver, and the Sultan will also send silver, no matter how much silver is spent, the second brother must be rescued first!" Lin Chunxiao's face was anxious.

And the son-in-law of the Lin family also had anger in his voice, "I told my second brother a long time ago that you should be careful with dirty goods, be cautious, don't just want money." How could he be so bold that the Dutch dared to take anything? Or in the cellar? Won't you just pry the gem off the pocket watch? ”

The Chinese families in Nanyang are all one and the other.

No matter how big Lin Chunxin's sin is, they all want to pull him.

"Mingsheng, you are familiar with Father Arri, don't wait for tomorrow, just now. And with two thousand guilders, he begged him. You told him that this is just a courtesy, and as long as this thing is done, the Lin family will still be grateful. The Lin family will be grateful to him for the rest of their lives. "The Nanyang Chinese only have money.

In the absence of Chen Han, whether it is Batavia or Manila, most of the Chinese people's reactions after encountering hardships are to destroy wealth and eliminate disasters. But they don't know that if they do this, they will only be seen as weak and deceitful, and as a fat pig that can be slaughtered at will.

No one in the world will be hot with silver! But it is common for him to do nothing after taking the money.

"Brother-in-law, you go to Speaker Isaac's mansion ......"

"Fourth, you go to Chief Julius's house."

The Lin family has fully opened their own road of 'salvation'.

Ye Shi returned to her residence like an outsider, and her face was full of worry.

The Lin family focused on the stolen goods, on clearing Lin Chunxin's guilt and appeasing the anger of the Yogyakarta Sultan and the Dutch.

But the Lin family forgot, when did the Dutch really take into account the feelings of the Sultan of Yogyakarta? The power of the Sultan of Yogyakarta corresponds only to the natives and the Chinese, not to the Dutch colonists.

Before the Chinese entered the South Seas, it was the Dutch who used the means to divide the Mataram Sultanate in two. In recent years, the Dutch have suddenly become interested in the Yogyakarta Sultan, because there are Chinese outside, and they must win over the Yogyakarta Sultan to counter the Chinese threat.

The more important part of this matter is that the Chinese businessman who was severely beaten after being arrested lies in the Chinese who died in the process. But not only did the Lin family not pay attention to this matter, but the most strange thing was the reaction of the Dutch. In the past, if the Chinese merchants in Batavia were stolen, they would be treated with caution, but what happened to Surabaya ......

It's a pity that the Ye family is not the Zhou family, since three years ago, the Zhou family finally went through hardships to obtain the true scriptures and got that cute little book, the status of the Ye family has plummeted in the Lin family. Because after getting that small book, the Ye family is no longer on the same road as the Lin family.

This is the harm to a backyard woman after the mother's family and the mother-in-law's family draw a line.

"You go to the porter Xiaoliu and ask him to give this religion to Ye Fushang tonight."

Ye sat on the bed and watched the back of the personal maid disappear, his face was twilight. I don't know why, she has a bad premonition in her heart.

……

And when the Lin family in Batavia convened a meeting, in a high-end hotel in Surabaya, a middle-aged man with gauze wrapped around his head and legs was struggling on the couch and shouting: "Come on, I want to get up, come on, help me up!" The bright red blood was still oozing on the gauze, but there was no pain on the middle-aged man's face, only endless hatred.

"Master, you lie down and drink the medicine first."

The man pushed the bowl away: "I don't drink, I want to get up!" I'm going to the pier. "The battleship of the Nanyang Naval Division has arrived, and the battleship that supports them Chinese and Chinese businessmen has arrived, and he must go to the dock to greet him.

"Bring the Li family's entourage, bodyguards, and the corpses of Ah Hai and Ah Chang. Lao Tzu wants the officials to see our miserable condition......"

What a curse fell from heaven. On that day, after a group of people confirmed the investment in the Zhujia Textile Factory, he took people to Li Kun's house the next day to discuss the matter.

As a result, a group of natives suddenly came in.

If it weren't for the fact that the main target of those natives was Li Kun, they were still looking for something, and several of Li Kun's bodyguards also happened to be mixed with the middle-aged bodyguards by the natives, and they protected the middle-aged people out of the encirclement. Otherwise, he will have to explain where he is!

But even so, he was hit with sticks and knives on his head and legs. At the same time, a bodyguard and an entourage died.

"If you don't take revenge, you swear not to be a man!" Middle-aged people have never been so close to death as they were on that day. Moreover, those natives arrogantly dragged Li Kun and his captured servants and bodyguards from Li Kun's residence to the dock. According to the Chinese who saw the scene, Li Kun and the skin of the clothes on their backs were torn. Without going through interrogation, those people directly declared Li Kun guilty of stealing and harboring stolen goods, and beat Li Kun severely, and the sound of the stick breaking bones was like a knife carved in the bottom of the heart, which could never be erased.

Then he stoned the other four people to death.

In the end, it was also announced that Li Kun would be dragged to the royal cemetery in Yogyakarta and burned at the stake in order to eliminate Li Kun's insult to his royal family.

I'll fuck your flock of sows!

Middle-aged people's lungs are about to explode!

……

Suddenly, the middle-aged man stopped moving, and his ears seemed to suddenly hear a faint commotion of joy.

"Boom, boom, boom......" salute sounded.

"Our sailor has arrived, and it's ......" The middle-aged man's neck was red with excitement. Even the housekeeper who persuaded him to rest in bed was also a little more excited.

Ma Dan, this thing is really embarrassing.

The most important thing is that with the revelation of this incident, the whole charge seems to be deducted from the Chinese people at once. Those monkey-like natives, wandering in groups in front of the Chinese markets and settlements, scraping knives on their bodies, looked at each Chinese with a very unfriendly gaze.

The Dutch didn't even care about this obviously wrong momentum. Instead, the army and police were pulled back.

Now that the Chinese sailor has arrived, the housekeeper also has a feeling of excitement in his heart, and he raises his eyebrows.

On the sea, four destroyers, accompanied by two medium-sized flying shear bow sailboats, cut through the wind and waves.

Ye Tingyang looked at Surabaya City from afar.

This city is the largest and most prosperous city in the Dutch East Indies Colony except for Batavia. At the same time, it is also one of the most powerful cities in China.

If the Chinese in Surabaya hadn't had their heads in the water at this time, they would have gathered a paramilitary force of 2,000 men.

There are six to eight teams, each with a backbone of people who have been trained or fought in West Borneo.

This Surabaya Chinese Self-Defense Force, which has been lurking in the shadows, has no less than 1,000 long and short guns, as well as many mortars. Once the energy bursts out, it is not to be underestimated.

The arrival of the Dutch not only changed the history of the Nanyang natives, but also changed the fate of the Nanyang Chinese.

Unlike the Spaniards, who massacred the Chinese many times, the Dutch did not have much red fruit to reject the Chinese, except for one Red Creek tragedy. But it would be naïve to think that such Dutchmen are friendly to the Chinese. They're just making their movements more secretive.

After the naturalization of Sulu and the change in the pattern of the South Seas, the situation in the entire East Indies became somewhat unstable. The Dutch also came to woo the local natives even more.

The Chinese were on guard, and the natives were happy.

Many discerning people have a premonition that great changes are coming.

If it weren't for Chen Han, who came out strongly, their reaction at the moment would only be to send a large amount of money to the Dutch officials in Surabaya. And no one thought of using this money to buy arms and form their own armed forces.

is still the same sentence as before, the sharpness and blood of the Nanyang Chinese have long been worn out by the Westerners. Whenever there is a change, the Nanyang Chinese are a herd of pigs and sheep waiting to be slaughtered. Their only 'self-help' was to send money to the Dutch authorities, to the church. Pray that the authorities can suppress the unrest of the natives, no matter how bad it is, it is still changing, and that his family can be protected by the Dutch government and the church...... (To be continued.) )
