Under the flashlight, everyone could see clearly that inside the paper roll soaked by the rain, there were blocks of ocean.
Seeing everyone's inquiring and curious gazes, Noda explained: "In fact, there are still some items left in the empty vault, but not much.
Those of us who were the first to bravely rush in, in order to prevent being robbed by those behind us, each of us took a share without making any publicity or publicity, and even brought copper coins to keep it underneath."
After Noda finished speaking, Hashimoto added: "It was because I was worried that someone would find out about this that Noda-kun shouted very loudly. In order not to make others suspicious, I even complained to cover him."
"...You are mistaken..." Noda shook his head, denying what Hashimoto said, and took out a ring of silver coins wrapped in a cloth handkerchief from his tattered clothes.
"I accidentally found this in the money bank when I was moving copper coins, so I deliberately shouted very loudly to attract other people, and then used the opportunity to break open the window and move the money.
This must have been deliberately placed in it by the people who robbed the place before, hoping to trigger a fight. After all, this envelope of silver coins can be worth many bags of copper coins, and can be easily taken away.
The person who got it won't announce it easily, but will definitely keep an eye on others. We need to move a lot of copper coins, and they may be stared at, thinking that we have found it too.
So I took advantage of the crowd at the door and smashed open the window to move the money, where most other people could see our movements, and we were only moving the copper coins in a small area under the window, which would make people think that we had found the silver coins.
The probability is low.
This is also why when we moved away, no one came to cause trouble, and the chaos that followed was most likely caused by the fight for the money."
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts when they heard this. For a simple copper dollar, an ocean can be exchanged for thousands of coins. A copper dollar is worth several grams less. In other words, a copper dollar worth an ocean is worth several kilograms less.
But not everyone brought tools like them. How much was the money that could be moved? How could there be a fight? It could have been caused by the money.
Okawa was in a daze, because he was flinching, he looked in a little, and later took the money from the window that Noda and others smashed open. He really didn't expect that there were so many things going on here, and he couldn't help but feel scared when he thought about it.
"...Ding Dong..." Noda put the money in the handkerchief into his bag as well, making everyone stunned.
"If any of you picks it up, please put it in too! There's already chaos in the back, and it will definitely spread to the back. If it stays with you, there's a high chance that it won't be retained.
Gather them together and hide them as soon as possible to avoid tonight's chaos. The money will belong to us. Of course, I won't care if you don't want to, but if someone robs you later, we won't risk helping each other.
.”
Everyone looked at each other, and finally one person took out a letter and put it in. After checking with his eyes again, and no one responded, Noda tied up the mouth of the bag and handed it to Okawa.
"Okawa-kun, we will unload the copper coins from the car onto the cart later. You can drive away with the money and hide away. After tonight, come and meet us again."
The only person Noda can trust is Okawa, because he has a job and a regular job. Although the house he lives in is not big, it is his own house. Although his job is just driving for others, it is stable and the salary is not low.
He wouldn't abandon these, take the money and run away. As for other people, although their situation is a little better than him, they are not much better. They have no family and no property. Whoever he dares to take away the money, others can't rest assured!
Sure enough, as soon as this decision was made, everyone nodded quickly and quickly unloaded the coins from the car. Dachuan did not hesitate and drove away quickly.
"Noda-kun, what are we going to do next?" Hashimoto now completely regarded Noda as the leader of the team. When he saw Okawa disappearing at the corner of the street, he asked immediately.
"Keep guarding these copper coins! This is not a small amount of money. If chaos spreads, you can check it if you want, but if you want to take it away, you will never let it go. Don't let anyone see anything unusual, otherwise..."
Needless to say, the consequences of being discovered to be strange, just think about the chaos they experienced, a guy with red eyes can do anything.
The rain had unknowingly turned into a sparse drizzle, scattering down and gently crossing those faces that had long lost their joy.
"... Bagh Ya Road... If you want it, I'll give it to you... Ding Dang Dang Dang..."
A man holding something tightly in his hands looked at several people with malicious intentions coming up from all around. He felt cruel and threw the thing in his arms around wildly, roaring.
"...Silver dollar...This is a silver dollar..." Picking up the coin rolled to his feet, this idiot actually shouted with joy with the help of the weak light of the flashlight.
There were a lot of people around. Countless flashlight lights gathered in. After a moment of silence, it was like cold water pouring into a frying pan. Countless people dropped the rags in their hands and rushed over like hungry dogs, lying on the ground to pick up frantically.
Even the few who robbed people were not spared. They were knocked down by a group of people, and then a lot of money was taken from them, which immediately triggered a larger-scale fight.
The person who threw the money didn't feel good either. These people didn't think he had thrown it all out, so they tried their hands on him one after another. The money was not taken out, but the clothes were torn to pieces and he fell to the ground, covered in mud and dirt.
Beggar, he was stunned and seemed to be stupid.
Then, latecomers continued to join, snatching away the forerunners, and even later ones came to snatch the things abandoned by these people. Countless people rushed forward and joined one after another. They were all fed up with the poor life during this period!
It was chaos, chaos, complete chaos! The city police who were chasing them were a little stunned when they saw the panic and absurd scene in front of them. They had to try their best to stop and drive away to prevent the local citizens nearby from being affected.
Fortunately, those who grabbed the things wanted to escape, and they were heading in basically the same direction, heading towards the concession, so the chaos was quickly spreading to the concession.
Naturally, they would not just rush to clean up their own territory, so they basically headed towards the Central and Western Districts of the public concession on the south bank of the Suzhou River.
The situation was quickly reported to the concession. Naturally, the concession's first thought was to stop it, but they did not pay attention to the situation reported by the city police before, and it was already too late.
Of course, if you really don't care about the cost, you can stop it if you want to, but who dares to stop it regardless of the cost? If there are casualties, the Japanese will never come to thank you. There is a high probability that they will bite you back, and they may take the opportunity to cause trouble.
So after trying to stop it, the concession had no choice but to let go, but they immediately recruited people to catch the leader, and even asked gangs to help.
Anyway, the attitude is the same as that of the city police. They don't care if you mess up your own affairs, as long as it doesn't affect innocent people and don't cause any big damage.
Fortunately, many people came here to keep their money, so they went to patrol these people. Although some people were already jealous, they had some scruples, so the situation was not completely out of control for the time being.
The main job of patrolling these people is to stop or protect reporters. The most well-informed among these people have more or less information and know that something may happen tonight. As soon as the incident occurs, these people rush here very quickly, for fear of missing something big.
Noisy.
As for Te-Tech, they have been chasing after them for a long time, but looking at the chaos, they didn’t dare to intervene. The previous chaos was especially in front of them!
What's more, this can barely be regarded as a aftermath of that incident. If they really intervene, they might add fuel to the fire. Who knows what kind of situation it will turn into?
Apart from these people who brought it to light, various intelligence forces lurking in the dark also turned their attention to it, inquiring about various intelligence information.
Many people secretly sighed at this act. Not only did they give Tegako another slap in the face, kill people and rob the money, but they also planned to cause such a huge chaos. Not only did they throw the shit basin out, but they also framed Tigako
On to the fire.
There are also many people who are planning how to take advantage of this east wind to inflict some trouble on the Japanese and cause them more embarrassment.
So, very soon, breaking news delivered by enthusiastic citizens appeared at the doorsteps of newspapers, reporters, editors and the like. Some of them were real-life news, but of course there were also some embellished personal stories.
Soon, editors-in-chief, editors, and printing workers started the painful and happy night shift life again. Fortunately, they all knew something through news channels, so they are waiting!
…
"...Manager...what happened?"
I saw a man in a raincoat who came close to the manager and whispered for a while. The manager frowned deeply and was lost for a while.
Morishita bravely stepped forward and asked carefully and tentatively. Sun Jisheng glanced at him and spoke after a while.
"Morishita-kun, what I asked you before, are everything you said true?"
When Morishita heard this, although he didn't know the reason, he nodded immediately and swore that everything he said was true.
"...Okay..." Sun Jisheng nodded slightly, then looked over with sharp eyes, and said: "If there is any lie, I hope Morishita-kun will tell the truth. Some of your colleagues are dishonest, and they have been found out by those people, and now they have resorted to tricks.
He probably will never see you again."
Morishita's throat was slightly stiff, he swallowed hard, and quickly nodded to express that what he said before was the truth.
"Okay! I choose to trust you, and I hope you won't let me down. However, your colleagues will not be able to come back tonight, so you will be the one to take care of it for the time being."
"...Understood..." Morishita's face turned pale, but he still nodded in agreement and opened his mouth to speak, but did not dare to say more.
"Don't worry, not everyone has problems. It's just that some people need to be examined and can't get through. It's mainly because there are other troubles over there and they can't risk coming here."
"Trouble?" Hearing this, Morishita was a little confused as to why the trouble had such a big impact.
"I'm not sure about the specifics. It seems to be related to the previous banknote incident. Those people who paid money to besiege Tigao Branch seem to have gone to rob somewhere tonight and caused a riot again."
"A riot?" Morishita's voice became louder in vain, and his face became paler. When he came to his senses, he quickly explained to Sun Jisheng that his previous house was set on fire that time.
"Don't worry, this incident has not affected Hongkou Xibei. It has only spread to the concession on the south bank of the Suzhou River, blocking the road here. It is said that those people have gone crazy and are worried about being robbed or leaking the news."
Morishita nodded to express his understanding. He really understood. His house was burned down, and every time he thought about it, he felt very unhappy with Tenko's handling of it, let alone those who went looking for trouble at that time.
Several people he knew had become paupers because of that incident, and even lived on the streets. Those people were really in chaos, and he believed that they could do anything.
