Chapter 130: Preparations Before the Meeting

"That person just now was Zhang Damin?" Shi San, who got rid of Zhang, was relieved.

Lu Shuzhang put the lunch box into his arms and said lightly, "Well, this person is a person with brains and abilities in the police force in Hankou, it turns out that he was okay when he worked at Hankou Station." Since becoming the captain of the patrol police, he has begun to break away from the basic masses. "Two people walked into the duty room of the station, and the duty room was a suite where they could both work and rest.

Lu Shu knocked on the door twice with his hand, and then three more times after a while. A head poked out of the door, looked around alertly, and waved at them.

In the room, the workers prepared a large amount of blank paper according to Shi San's instructions, and a worker wearing glasses handed Shi San a first draft of propaganda, and Shi San looked at it carefully. The title of the first line made Shi San frown. "Down with the warlords, down with the capitalists, down with the imperialist lackeys! There is something wrong with this slogan. ”

Lu Shuzhang glanced at it and asked, "What's wrong, these bad people are the ones they oppress and exploit our workers, how can we have a happy life if we don't defeat them." ”

Shi San shook his head, "Our struggle must pay attention to strategy, now the strength of our workers is still very weak, we cannot use such extreme slogans to intensify the contradictions between labor and management, you must know that there are many people who want the workers to expand the matter, they can justifiably take violent measures against us." ”

"Then we are not afraid, our workers are not soft eggs, not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice." Lu Shu said as he clenched his fists.

Shi San patted Lu on the shoulder, "Of course, our workers are not afraid of bloodshed and sacrifice, but the blood of our workers must not be shed in vain." We are now in the early stages of the struggle, like a child learning to walk, to be steady, not to start running. Therefore, we must wage a struggle against the enemy within the scope of law, and try our best to win the support and sympathy of all social classes for us, so that we can exert public opinion pressure on the authorities. You must know that Wu Peifu, the head of the direct line, has always advocated the policy of "protecting labor", which at least shows that there is a possibility of compromise in this regard. If we push them into a hurry, we will turn the initiative into a passive one. ”

Lu Shu nodded, "Or do you think long-term, then what should we change the slogan to?" ”

Shi San picked up a pen and crossed out the title of the draft, and wrote in large strokes, protect the interests of laborers and oppose exploitation and oppression! Shi San said, "Just print it according to this!" ”

There was a sound in the room, and Shi San followed the music to turn his gaze to a worker who held a harmonica in his left hand and a crumpled sheet music in his right. "Little brother, what are you playing?"

The worker smiled and said, "It's a foreign tune, which I occasionally heard on the radio at the station, and then I wrote down his score." The worker shook the harmonica in his hand, "This is a harmonica that I bought with two months' wages, and my original one was seized by the foreman when he went to work and took home to use as a toy for his children." ”

Lu Shuzhang said sarcastically, "He is envious of the extravagant upper class life of those capitalists!" ”

Shi San smiled, "Alas, you can't say that, music knows no borders or classes. Little brother, I'll hum a tune, can you write his score? ”

The worker nodded, "Almost!" ”

Shi San thought for a moment, then hummed softly.

Lu Shu shook his head, "Representative Shi, what are you humming about?" ”

Shi San didn't answer, and hummed the song with great interest, "Little brother, you practice this piece well, and blow it to me when you are familiar with it." ”

Lu Shuzhang opened the lunch box and handed it to Shi San, "Representative Shi, eat it while it's hot, I heard that you are also from Hunan, so I specially asked my daughter-in-law to make this dish!" ”

Shi San was very moved, "It turned out to be prepared for me?" Thank you! Shi San stuffed a spicy stick between his fingers and stuffed it into his mouth, "Ah, this spicy is really strong." I have three major pleasures in life, smoking, reading, and eating spicy food. Hahaha. Shi San handed the lunch box to the other workers, "Come, everyone can taste the craftsmanship of the sister-in-law of the Lu family." ”

"What should Wu Fen do?" Lu Shu asked suddenly.

"Where is he now?" Originally, Shi San wanted to ask about Wu Fen's situation, but he forgot about it when he was busy just now.

Lu Shu opened the door of the inner room, which was used by the workers who usually worked the night shift to rest. The room was dark, he turned on the light, and Wu Fen was tied to the iron railing of the bunk bunk. Lu Shu took out the towel in Wu Fen's mouth. Wu Fen saw Shi San and shouted, "Representative Shi, you have to take care of the pipeline relaxation, this bastard actually dares to kidnap me." ”

Shi San glared at Wu Fen solemnly, "I approved him to arrest you." Don't you know what mistakes you've made? You colluded with the patrol police and betrayed your worker brothers, and we have solid evidence. ”

Wu Fen bowed his head knowing that he was wrong, "I have no choice, they use my family to blackmail me, if I don't cooperate, my family will be ruined." ”

Lu Shuzhang angrily grabbed Wu Fen's neck and slapped him three times in the face, "Your home is home?" Isn't our home our home? I'm going to kill you today! ”

Shi San grabbed Lu Shu's hand, "You calm down, even if you beat him to death, it's useless." Shi San turned his head to look at Wu Fen, "After you reported to them the resolution of our meeting that day, what was their reaction?" ”

Wu Fen was blinded by Lu Shuzhang, and he didn't dare to have any illusions anymore, he confessed 1510, "They are very happy to know that the workers are willing to return to work, and they want to hype it up." At 1 p.m. this afternoon, the chief of the police department will accompany the special envoy and representatives of various circles in Hankou to inspect the work at the Hankou station, and there will be a media briefing to report on it, and they will also hold a press conference at half past one, and the special envoy will announce to the people of the whole country that the Sichuankou railway has returned to normal. ”

Shi San and Lu Shu looked at each other and smiled, and Shi said to Lu, "It seems that the hope of the special envoy is about to be dashed, tell the workers that we will go on strike collectively after he announces the news and go to the textile cinema for an enlarged meeting of our workers." ”

Lu Shu nodded and then stuffed the towel into Wu Fen's mouth again, turned off the light in the house, and then closed the door, "This method is good, this time Wu Peifu's face will be lost all over China." By the way, Mr. Shi, didn't Mr. Li ask us to postpone this meeting? We haven't replied to them yet! ”

Representative Shi said with a confused face, "Ang, has Mr. Li sent us this telegram?" How come I don't remember? ”

Lushu's expression froze, and it didn't take long for him to laugh out loud. "Yes, yes, we didn't get the telegram at all!"
