It turned out that this church was a medium-sized church, and now it is home to more than 20 people, including 12 Chinese believers. The bishop was a fanatical and devout religious figure. During the Boxer Movement, the church accepted more than 100 foreign diaspora and Chinese believers. During the Boxer's attack on the church, the bishop led the church to resist and guarded the church, but the church members who were hiding in the church killed and injured more than 80 people.

Moreover, something happened during this period left a deep impression on the bishop. That is, when the situation was most dangerous, the church guards were in danger, with little bullet left, and there was not enough food in the church. So several Chinese believers couldn't help but decide to go out and surrender to the Boxer. Under their instigation, more than a dozen Chinese believers and two foreign merchants decided to surrender to the Boxer without caring about the bishop's dissuasion. The Chinese believers believed that they were Chinese and the Boxer would not attack them. The two foreigners were based on their experience in doing business in China. The Chinese loved money and hoped to use money to buy their lives.

But as soon as these dozen people walked out of the church, they were immediately arrested by the Boxers. After a brief questioning, they killed the dozen people in front of the church. When the other church members saw it, they completely died of surrender and swear to guard the church to the death. Fortunately, within a few days, the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Beijing and saved the remaining personnel in the church. The bishop was even more excited, believing that this was a miracle created by God, which allowed him to survive.

After being rescued, the bishop immediately launched a crazy revenge, and the object of revenge was not limited to the Boxer Rebellion, but all non-religious Chinese people. Because in his opinion, these pagans in the East deserved to die, and he had lived in Beijing for five or six years, and could have basic dialogue in Chinese. He was familiar with Beijing's cities and streets, and knew that several Boxer Rebellions were located at the entrance of Beijing, so he led the Eight-Nation Alliance to wipe out one by one.

These halls were all set up in the palaces of officials and powerful people. During the Boxer Rebellion, it was not surprising that they were also set up in the palaces of officials, powerful people, and princes. At this time, some officials, the families of powerful people were still left in the residences, and some had fled, but still had a large population in the residences.

The remaining members of the church led by the bishop joined the Eight-Nation Alliance and attacked the powerful and powerful mansions. Not only did they snatch all the treasures and property, but they also killed all the people in the mansion, regardless of gender, age and age. Sometimes, although the Eight-Nation Alliance had evacuated, the bishop still led the church members to continue killing and poking. In just over ten days, they had killed hundreds of people, and of course they also robbed a large number of treasures. Later, even other churches could not stand it, so they spoke out and tried to restrain themselves.

After the battle to Beijing began, the bishop also felt the danger and believed that the second Boxer Movement had arrived. So he immediately collected guns, accumulated food, and strengthened the church, preparing to fight the second battle to defend the church, and firmly believed that God would protect himself again.

The people's army demanded that the churches hand over the looted money and were inspected, but ignored them at all. In the bishop's opinion, this was just a trick to deceive him into opening the church gate. Once they were allowed to come in, it would be a disaster. So when the People's Army came to inspect the church, the church closed the gate, and the leader personally guarded the church on the wall with a gun and fired. The People's Army was indeed a little careless and did not hurry to defend, but was injured in two soldiers.

Qin Zheng was also quite shocked after receiving the report. He did not expect that someone would dare to resist the People's Army by force. Therefore, he immediately ordered that *** lead a company's army to attack the church immediately, but at the same time, he also demanded that the scale of the war be not be expanded.

It is naturally impossible for the church to withstand the attack of the People's Army. The church door was blasted open with just a few guns. The bishop was commanding the congregants to guard the wall at that time, but he was killed on the spot with several congregants. As soon as the bishop died, the others also lost their will to resist. The People's Army then invaded the church, and the rest surrendered one after another. In less than 10 minutes, the People's Army shot dead a total of 11 people and arrested 14 people, including 2 foreign priests, 3 nuns, and 9 Chinese believers.

Of course, there is only one church like this that is so stupid that he is seeking death. In most churches, bishops can still clearly understand the current situation and dare not prevent the People's Army from entering the church to search.

But in the end, all the seven churches found hidden treasures and wealth. In fact, almost all the churches had some private storage, including all embassies. However, the embassies only kept some small, high-value and easy to collect treasures; but the churches found were hiding a large number of treasures, even gold and silver. Some even had a symbolic handover, and the origins were hidden in the church, which was why they were still found.

Moreover, the collection of the embassy is mainly based on treasures, but the church is always here, and it requires treasures, gold and silver, and a large amount of copper coins. This also made Davedot and Chanistine, who came to interview, very embarrassed. Although they were not believers, they still had a good impression of the church due to their childhood education and culture influence. In the old time and space, the two of them would also go to the church to attend services and other ceremonies. When they saw that the church actually participated in the looting, they did not believe that the church in this era would be like this.

After all the inspections were completed, Qin Zheng ordered that Dongjiaomin Lane be temporarily blocked. Personnel from embassies in various countries could only move in Dongjiaomin Lane. Other churches that passed the inspection were temporarily restricted from going out. However, the churches found to have hidden were seized. Bishops, priests, and believers were expelled from the church and were forbidden in the palace. All the property of the church was confiscated by the People's Army. The church that fought against the People's Army was demolished, and the 14 people arrested were escorted to Tianjin to serve their sentences.

In the following days, the People's Army actually found a large number of treasures buried in the ground in the palace. It turned out that when Empress Dowager Cixi left Beijing, she divided some of her own treasures, gold and silver, into several places, buried in the underground of the palace. The total value was about 1.50,000 pounds. Later, after the Eight-Nation Alliance entered Beijing, she dug out several places in the palace. In the old time and space, after Empress Dowager Cixi returned to Beijing, she took out the remaining treasures, which were still about 90,000 pounds.

Qin Zheng was familiar with history and naturally knew this historical fact, and would not leave this treasure to Empress Dowager Cixi. For time travelers, it was not difficult to find this wealth. It was just a few metal detectors. As a result, several buried treasures were dug up in the palace.

The final statistics took more than a month to complete, and the results greatly outlook the expectations of all time travelers. The silver alone reached more than 930,000 taels, and gold was more than 20,000 taels, which was about 60 tons. Other ancient jades, famous calligraphy paintings of the Tang, Song, Song and Yuan Dynasty, ceramics, enamel, lacquerware, gold and silverware, bamboo, wood, tooth and corner horns, gold and bronze religious statues, as well as a large number of costumes and materials of emperors, empresses, concubines, etc., with more than 10,000 pieces. It can be said that gold, jade, pearls and jade, and rare treasures are gathered here. Among them, there are 5 of the treasures and cultural relics that have been damaged to varying degrees.

The silver and gold that were searched were naturally taken for themselves by the Time Travel Group, but how to deal with other treasures is a difficult problem, because although these treasures are valuable, they are all precious cultural relics from China and are basically impossible to be used to cash in. Some Time Travel Group recommend that all the treasures be transported to Tianjin or Qingdao, and the Time Travel Group will collect them themselves. Even a museum can be built for people to visit.

However, some people have strongly opposed the collection and construction of museums, because whether it is collection or construction, it is an extremely huge engineering project. In addition, in the later maintenance and operation, a lot of manpower and financial resources are also required to be invested in the later maintenance and operation. Now, the Time Travel Group is at the beginning of its founding and is inactive. All human and financial resources need to be invested in infrastructure and industrialization. They really don’t have the energy to protect this batch of treasures. Even if they are forcibly transported to Tianjin or Qingdao for collection, a large number of cultural relics will be damaged due to poor management. This will destroy the precious cultural relics of the Chinese nation. Moreover, the ultimate goal of the Time Travel Group is to replace the Qing court and establish a republic. After the Time Travel Group obtains power, the palace will definitely be changed to the Palace Museum like the old time and space. Then these treasures and cultural relics will still be sent back to the Forbidden City for preservation. So it is better to keep these treasures in the palace.

After obtaining silver and gold, the Time Travel Group has obtained enough funds for exhibition, so there is no need to cash out these treasures. The practical significance of collecting these treasures is not very good. Putting these treasures in the palace can be better kept and the chance of damage is much smaller; secondly, it can also show that the People's Army forcibly searching embassies of various countries is just to protect the treasures of the Chinese nation, not for its own self-interest. In this way, the Time Travel Group can morally occupy a high point.
