Last time, Madoudou and Zhiguoguo experienced first-hand the harm caused to the Chinese people by the entry of opium during the Jiaqing period. Although a smoking ban was also issued during the Jiaqing period, the thunder was loud and the rain was light.

The British powers bribed Qing officials to allow a large amount of opium to flow into China. This phenomenon became more and more intense during the Daoguang period.

Under the leadership of Mumen, Madoudou and Zhiguoguo appeared in Humen during the Daoguang period.

This time they will witness with their own eyes the historical event of Humen’s opium eradication!

After witnessing a middle-aged man smoking until his home was completely bare, and seeing Chinese people lying in opium dens puffing on smoke, Madoudou thought of the four words sick man of East Asia, a title that once shamed the Chinese people.

"Give way, give way. Master Lin is here today and wants to inspect all the opium dens here. The court has an order. No one can obstruct it. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed."

Madoudou and Zhiguoguo had just appeared and before they could stand still, a group of soldiers in Qing uniforms pushed Madoudou and Zhiguoguo away.

Madoudou was afraid of getting separated from Zhi Guoguo, so she hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull Zhi Guoguo back, holding Zhi Guoguo's hand tightly.

"Sister, be careful."

Madoudou reminded Zhiguoguo that because the crowd was getting more and more crowded, many people came out to watch the excitement.

Some people in the crowd clapped and applauded, and some complained loudly...

"This Mr. Lin is just a thorn. We smoke our big cigarettes to clear him up. What's he doing here in Guangdong when he's not staying in the capital?"

"This is just a formality. Didn't you see that Qishan was colluding with foreigners to sell opium? If they had the ability, they cured Qishan..."

"This court is just showing off. When the British talk loudly, the court will only send money in exchange for a smile."

After hearing what these people said, Madoudou clenched his fists in hatred, wishing he could punch these people awake.

Foreign powers use opium to torture the Chinese people, and the Chinese people also worship foreigners' opium as gods. This is the tragedy of human nature.

"Sister, there are many people here, let's go to that corner."

Madoudou didn't want to get along with these big smokers, so he pushed the people who were squeezing over, and he quietly took Zhiguoguo away from the crowded crowd.

"Sister, the era we live in is the beginning of China's suffering. Lin Zexu cannot save China..."

When Madoudou got emotional, he actually shed tears.

Because he knew that in history, Lin Zexu’s destruction of cigarettes in Humen only gave China a short-term sigh of relief. But afterwards, Lin Zexu’s destruction of cigarettes in Humen became the fuse of the first Opium War. The incompetent Qing government signed an unequal treaty with the British.

Treaty of Nanjing ceded territory and paid compensation.

"Brother, why are you crying again? You cry so easily these days."

Zhiguoguo wiped the tears from Madouudou's face with her sleeve. She didn't understand why Madouudou was crying again.

Madoudou held Zhi Guoguo's hand and looked ahead at the Qing Dynasty officers and soldiers who were enforcing cigarette smoking throughout the city.

"Sister, the Opium War is about to begin. Foreign powers will soon invade. They will invade our country with iron hoofs and steal our country's wealth."

Zhi Guoguo looked at the officers and soldiers who were anti-smoking without understanding. She didn't understand that the whole city was not anti-smoking now? "Brother, why do foreigners use iron hooves to pry open our country's door?"

"Because our country has treasures and the wealth they want, we are the fat sheep in their mouth, and China is just a sleeping lion at this time."
