C3326 The End of the Civil War (2/2)

Gunfire, screams, pleas for mercy … There were even insults coming from the ruins. Not only were the armed National Guard s massacred, many innocent citizens were also robbed, raped, and massacred.

Surviving was really too difficult, and this was what Eugene and Andrew were thinking!

If Xiao Letian knew that Eugene and Andrew were still in Paris City, he would have already cursed at them for being complete idiots.

These two artifact dealers helped Xiao Letian collect the Paris antiques, making him rich in war wealth. This amount of money was enough for him to become a top merchant in France.

Since then, living a life of luxury and luxury, just eating the bank's interest will be inexhaustible.

In fact, the trade in the smuggling of cultural relics lasted all the way until McMahon's army entered the city. These two cultural relics dealers made a fortune during the entire period of the civil war in Paris.

After McMahon's elite army came back, Xiao Letian immediately ordered the trade in cultural relics to be stopped, because it was simply too dangerous.

Everyone thought that Eugene and Andrew had left Paris for another city to enjoy themselves, but they never thought that these two greedy fellows would actually sneak back for the four boxes of gold bars.

In the basement of their pawnshop, there was also a hidden secret space, which was filled with the most precious treasures and gold that bought the artifacts.

Four chests of gold bars were hidden inside. The two sneaked back to give the gold a place to hide. After all, their pawnshop had long since become the center of attention.

Once the situation changed, it was very likely that the enemy would search carefully. No matter how hidden the secret compartment was, as long as one looked carefully, it was not hard to find it.

The two of them had indeed hidden the gold, but if they looked back, they wouldn't be able to get out!

McMahon's army of veterans was not weak. Once they invested into the offensive, it would be like an unending torrential storm.

All of the districts in Paris became battlefields. Eugene and Andrew were trapped inside the Montmartre plateau alive, unable to leave any of the streets.

The two of them watched helplessly as the two sides became more and more brutal. Even the Paris Commune started to kill the innocent now.

The two of them carried with them a large amount of gold coins and started secretly bribing some of the citizens. They hid in different ruins every day and endured the war like rats in the sewers.

There was simply no end to these bitter days. Sometimes, hiding in the ruins of a brick was like hiding during the day. He didn't eat, drink, or take a piss. His entire body was extremely smelly.

When they slept at night, they would constantly change places. They didn't even dare to snore. The only thing they could do was to sleep on one side and watch the other. If they found any snores, they would immediately shut their mouths.

Even more so, catching two rats to eat raw meat was a luxury. Although he had gold coins in his pocket, who should he spend them on? Only those with familiar faces would dare to buy one or two pieces of black bread at a high price.

Just like that, he continued to endure and grind on … They waited for the Chinese to intervene, and when they saw Qi Bolin's airship flying in the sky, they also saw their hope of surviving.

”We can't continue to hide like this or we'll starve to death … ”I can only give it my all …”

”Do you realize that there is a rule for the airship to save lives? They will try their best to cover every street area, which means there has never been a street where the airship is used to. The more likely it is that they will be able to board the airship …”

”From where we are, two blocks to the east... I think we can wait there for the airship! ”

”Good …” ”Let's do it this way. We can't starve to death …”
