With the sound of the prompt sound of the completion of the side mission on behalf of the system, this crisis of the Chinese compatriots in Surabaya City has come to an end completely.

It's just this incident that has had a huge impact.

With the spread of all sorts of incomplete news, the influences and the tide in the Far East in 1893 were just beginning.

In the face of this shocking event that shocked everyone's jaws, all parties involved had different reactions, and for a while, the entire Far East region became extremely lively.

I don't know how many people and forces have begun to rise up when they hear about it......

Time: Three days later, around 10 a.m. on June 8, the foreign devil calendar.

Location: In Daqing Jingshi, south of the city, in a certain teahouse called 'Gaosheng'.

If you want to say that in the entire Jingshi City, where is the most lively place during the day, it is definitely the number of various teahouses in the city.

This is not! Although he was so poor that he had eaten the last meal but did not have the next meal, the fourth master of Zhenghongqi Manren walked into the Gaosheng teahouse like a dog with a bird cage in his hand, a gentleman with a jade wrench, a snuff bottle and other things.

After walking straight through the door, I immediately felt the fiery atmosphere.

I saw that there were already many people sitting at the edge of the many tables in the teahouse.

Among them, there are businessmen who are talking about business, scholars who go to Beijing to study and rush for exams, but more of them are idle Eight Banners idlers like him.

These people gather here to talk as if there is nothing in the world that they do not know; It seems that a teahouse is a world.

For such a scene, the fourth master has long been accustomed to it like a fish in water.

Facing the shopkeeper with a smile on his face, he shouted out of his mouth: "The old rule, give the master a pot of high crushes~"

The so-called 'high crushed' is actually when the tea shop screens the tea leaves, and the tea foam that is screened out is originally considered a cheap bargain.

However, in the mouth of the fourth master, he shouted out the momentum of a pot of good tea such as 'Longjing' and 'Biluochun'.

Uncle Bannerman! It's all about momentum and hand.

This mouth will not suffer at any time; There was even a joke in later generations that if they threw their mouths into a pressure cooker and stewed for two hours, their mouths would still be hard.

After shouting in his mouth, the fourth master held the bird cage in his hand, as before, and walked towards some acquaintances who also belonged to the flag people.

The difference is that if it is replaced by the usual after they meet.

Absolutely with a polite face, the mouth asked, 'Have you eaten?' ’

Today's situation is a little different, the fourth master first glanced left and right, and found that no one kept staring at him.

With a mysterious expression, he sat down on the only empty seat at a table full of flag men.

With an acquaintance with a white flag, both of them reached the point where their shoulders were against each other's; It was only when he lowered his voice that he asked a sentence in his mouth:

"Second Master Ye and everyone, have you heard?"

After hearing this, the man who was called Ye Erye also lowered his voice and said with a mysterious face:

"But what about Surabaya City, Java? I've heard a little bit about it, but who in the entire Jingshi City doesn't know that the fourth master is well-informed, so naturally he knows it better than the fourth master. ”

The voice fell, and another flag man with a pockmarked face immediately echoed a sentence in his mouth: "If you don't trust the second master's blessing today, my brothers will talk about it well, and let us have a long experience~"

Several other people also echoed at this time.

It's just that the fourth master faced everyone's requests, and after smiling in his mouth, he said to him left and right:

"I woke up late today, and I forgot to eat breakfast; Seeing that it's almost noon, it would be nice if I could have a bowl of rotten meat noodles~"

The fourth master's meaning is very simple, you can listen to his secret news, but you have to invite him to eat a bowl of rotten meat noodles.

The so-called 'rotten meat noodles' are actually a kind of noodles made with some shapeless minced meat that has been removed from the bones as the main ingredient to make toppings.

The taste is good, and the price is quite cheap and not expensive.

It's a pity that after hearing such a sentence, no one was willing to invite the fourth master to eat a bowl of rotten meat noodles.

No way! As Daqing's life deteriorates year by year, their hardcore crops are also getting smaller and smaller year by year, and even often in arrears.

Even after receiving it, let them, the flag men who can't do anything except spend money and have fun, will be clean in two or three days.

Now the flag man at this table, don't look at one more glamorous than the other.

But they are all bird-like, their pockets are cleaner than their faces, and they have no food at noon, who has the money to invite the fourth master to eat 'rotten meat noodles'.

Even if it's a bowl of rotten meat noodles, I really can't ask for a few big men.

For a while, these Eight Banners masters looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little embarrassing.

At this moment, a young scholar at the next table stood up, saluted to the crowd, and said in a distinctly Hunan accent:

"Ladies and gentlemen, please don't blame me Meng Lang.

Originally, I shouldn't have bothered you, but I just entered Beijing from Hunan Province, and it was the time to get a glimpse of the current situation; It's better to listen to everyone's opinions, and by the way, please enjoy your face and have lunch together. ”

After saying that, without waiting for the fourth master and the others to be reserved, he shouted to Xiao Er:

"Give these masters a pot of good tea, a bowl of 'rotten meat noodles' for each person, and a few side dishes~"

At this time, these flag men were all facing the scholar, and they drew a thumbs up, and said in their mouths:

"Gentleman, you are so particular about ......"

*****

In the following time, with a bowl of rotten meat noodles piled with toppings per capita, there were also some peanuts, pig's head meat, stewed and other dishes served on the table.

While eating, the fourth master began to salivate and tell some of the inside information he had learned about the Surabaya City incident.

In such a process, not only the readers, but also the flag people were fascinated.

Even Xiao Er, who had a towel on his shoulder and an iron kettle of hot water in his hand, was fascinated by them, and he didn't move for a long time.

Don't worry about your own shopkeeper, who will be scolded for his lazy behavior.

Because don't look at the shopkeeper behind the counter, putting on a posture of settling accounts; In fact, the ears are pricked up, listening intently to what is being said.

And what exactly is the content that makes everyone so hooked.

In fact, everything has to start with the crisis of a group of Chinese compatriots in Surabaya City, Java, Nanyang, a few days ago, a place that many Daqing people have never heard of before.

For the first time, someone explicitly turned on the electricity and introduced one of the reasons.

This remote place has aroused the interest of the entire Daqing, especially the common people of Jingshi City; is even more worried about the fate of those who have never known the country.

In an instant, everyone turned into an expert in international relations, saying something like 'dual nationality' and 'Dutch is just a small country in Europa, and the military power is not to be feared at all'.

'The imperial court will definitely negotiate harshly and show the majesty of my Daqing'.

The result? Reality soon slapped in the face.

It was only the second day, and the military aircraft of the imperial court had not yet discussed how to deal with this matter; Lafayette and Guangxu did not speak.

Not to mention the time when a sternly worded note was issued to negotiate with the Dutch people.

A huge bad news came again, and the news was once again telegraphed in Surabaya City, which explained.

More than 100,000 or 200,000 Javanese natives have already raised their butcher knives against their Chinese compatriots in Surabaya; The Dutch people who collect taxes on weekdays have run away and don't know where to go.

The condemnation of the Great Yin Empire and other powers has no effect at all on the Helan people.

However, after a lapse of thirty-two years, the Xuange camp reappeared here in Surabaya City, and established several safe zones in the city to gather and protect a group of compatriots.

Helplessly, although their combat power is amazing, there are only a few dozen people.

Under the attack of the natives in almost the entire East Java region, it is now quite difficult to resist, and I am afraid that the Chinese in the city will be slaughtered immediately.

All of the above are what most of the people in Jingshi City have known for a long time.

If this is all there is, although the people of Jingshi will scold the lotus blue people for a while; By the way, for the hundreds of thousands of Chinese compatriots in Surabaya City, apart from talking freely, there will be no such a big reaction.

After all, the members of the Daqing Imperial Court are slow to react no matter what happens.

For such a big event, if those military ministers don't discuss it for a few days, there will definitely not be a result routine, and the people have long been used to it.

But two days later, that is, yesterday, some new news came out secretly.

This is also what the current four masters are saying to everyone in the teahouse.

It is foreseeable that with the sieve of the Daqing Imperial Court, these so-called secret news will soon be spread to the extent that everyone knows.

And this secret news, the specific situation is:

It turned out that the situation in Surabaya City was the most critical time; The three ironclad ships of the Xuange battalion fleet, as well as the two ships of Zhiyuan and Laiyuan of the Beiyang Naval Division, were killed.

Together, the two sides defeated the Dutch fleet that was blocking them, as well as the five batteries of the coastal defense.

Then, he raised cannons and shelled a group of natives and Helans in the city, and saved a group of Chinese compatriots in Surabaya City under the knife of the natives.

The whole process can be described as thrilling.

I'm afraid that it can make all the old and young masters in Jingshi City discuss it for a month while drinking 'high crushed' and eating 'rotten meat noodles'.

However, more importantly, it is said that the Xuange Camp on that day signed a "Xuanhe Surabaya Aftermath Treaty" with a gun almost against the head of the Helan people.

The content of it, after being said by the fourth master with a mysterious face, made everyone dumbfounded:

First, everything in this incident is a riot instigated by the Javanese natives, these savage and uncivilized monkeys, because they are lazy and lazy, but they have long been jealous of the wealth of the Chinese.

It's not about the Dulans, even they are victims.

In this incident, they also suffered a large number of casualties, many houses and manors were burned down by the natives, and many women were abused and killed by the natives.

Therefore, in the Netherlands, there is also the Javanese colonial governor's palace unanimously decided.

Severely punish all natives who participated in the rebellion, except for those who had been killed in the rebellion, and all the natives who were captured were executed.

Any natives whose hands are stained with the blood of Dutch and Chinese will be put to death.

The rest of the captured natives were all served with hard labor of life imprisonment; When to die of exhaustion, when to finish.

Second, although this tragedy, everything was done by the natives.

However, the Colonial Governor's Office of Dutch Java admits that it was precisely because of their prior negligence that led to the Surabaya tragedy.

For the Chinese Americans killed and injured in this tragedy, they have an unshirkable responsibility; It is also the responsibility and necessity to make certain compensation to the Chinese Americans who were victimized in this tragedy.

The Dutch people have a variety of complementary means, including:

Within 10 years, there will be no increase in any form of tax on Chinese ethnic minorities in Java.

There are still Chinese Americans in Surabaya City, who pay a total of almost five million taels of silver guilders as compensation and compensation for this tragedy.

Thirdly, because the Netherlands is financially difficult.

The compensation worth 5 million taels of silver, of which 2 million taels, will be paid to the Chinese victims and their families in the next month.

The remaining 3 million taels will be paid in priority with 75% of the subsequent East Java tax revenue until it is completely compensated......

In the mouth of the fourth master, after saying a large list of the above contents.

The entire teahouse was silent for a long time; The main reason is that I can't believe that the content of this treaty is so generous for young people.

God! Since the beginning of the twentieth year of Daoguang, after the first duck war.

The Daqing Imperial Court and these foreign devils don't know how many treaties they have signed.

No matter what time I lost money and ceded the land, I basically didn't get any benefits.

Even if it was eight years ago with the legal person in Annan, Daqing claimed to have won the battle of the legal person; The treaty that was signed later did not lose the subject state of Annan.

Where have you ever heard of something like this, which makes foreigners lose a lot of money and admit their mistakes?

However, such a treaty was signed by these rebels in the Xuange camp, which was regarded as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh by the imperial court.

Between the Daqing Imperial Court and the Xuange Camp, in this Surabaya crisis, each showed its strengths and weaknesses, and there were also possible consequences.

Among the people in the teahouse, it can be said that as long as there is one person, you can see clearly.

Even a group of banner men who led hardcore crops were embarrassed to distinguish a few words for their court.

In the end, the fourth master even drank the noodle soup cleanly, grabbed a yellow belt representing the identity of the Great Qing Grandmaster around his waist, and wiped his mouth full of oil and water.

With a very emotional tone, he muttered:

"There are traitors in the court who have misled the country, and once it is done like this, the hearts of millions of Chinese in Nanyang in Daqing are afraid that they will be completely returned to those traitors in the Xuange camp all of a sudden.

I heard that these Nanyang Yankees are rich again, and this time the Xuange camp is afraid that they are going to make a fortune.

There is also the Deng Guanband of the Zhiyuan Ship, who took the initiative to take action under the crisis, and somewhat saved some of the face of my Daqing Imperial Court; However, the traitors of the court are in charge, and I am afraid that there will be no result~"

It was also at this time that the scholar stood up and saluted to the fourth master and the other flag men, and said in his mouth while saluting:

"The ancients said well, listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years.

The fourth master's explanation made me pause, and I thanked you in advance; Just a few trivial things, I took my leave and left. ”

After saying that, he threw down a small piece of broken silver that was enough to pay the bill, and strode out of the teahouse.

As long as anyone can see that this reader is full of thoughts......

In fact, this thoughtful scholar is Tan Fusheng, who has been living in Beijing for a while, and he is not a talent who has just come from Hunan Province.

With his father, he is currently the governor of Hubei Province and his relationship.

The secret that the fourth master said in his mouth, he also knew it for a long time.

Even with his knowledge, he also analyzed more content from the content in the previous clear code, as well as the "Xuanhe Surabaya Aftermath Treaty".

The tragedy of Surabaya City, where everything is is a riot of the native people of Java.

That's just a nice statement for the sake of his own fame and face; But for this, they are afraid that they have also paid a considerable price.

In addition, there should be some elements in the treaty, which have not yet been published.

It's just that he doesn't know what it is.

And when he came to the teahouse to invite the fourth master and others to dinner, it was not so much to inquire about the news; It's better to say that I want to change the angle and see why Daqing has become like this, and why the performance in this crisis is so clumsy.

And what else can be done to make everything better in Daqing.

It's a pity that these Eight Banners Uncles, who only know how to eat, drink and have fun every day, don't have any words except for the sentence 'There are traitors in the court'.

Naturally, I can't say what inspiration it brings to Tan Fusheng.

Finally, after walking out of the teahouse, he finally made up a decision in his heart:

Go to Surabaya City and meet the people in the Xuange camp; Let's see if we can find a real answer from the rebellious mouths of these imperial courts.

After making up his mind, he hurriedly packed his luggage, hired a carriage at the carriage and horse shop, and headed straight for Jinmen.

From there, taking a boat to Surabaya City in Java should be the fastest and most convenient means of transportation.

It's just that even he doesn't know how much impact and change his temporary decision will have on his future life.

And like Tan Fusheng, with a confused mood, the personnel who rushed to Surabaya City, not to mention him alone.

I don't know how many people are like him, who are rushing to that strange city in the South Seas......

PS: After dinner, I have something to go out, so I will change one chapter first, and the rest of the chapter will be a little later.

(End of chapter)
