Wu Fen was very atmospheric, "Captain Zhang, you have worked on the railway before, do you tell me that our worker brothers live a human life?" They rise earlier than the chickens, do more than the oxen, and eat worse than the pigs. But the king overseers did not pay attention to the public and allowed the public to bully us, and if we did not rise up and resist, we would starve to death sooner or later. ”

Zhang Damin knew that all this Wu Fen said was the truth, but now he had to do everything he could to settle this matter. "Old Wu, you have two sons."

Wu Fen nodded, "Well, the child left early, these two children were raised by my hard work, the eldest is now going to school in Wuchang, and the second child is still by my side." Hey, why are you asking this? ”

"What? You are also a foreman on the railway, and you will not be given a small share of the money every month, and you will not be given less meat to eat. Look at your house, two floors up and down, look at how many people can use this fan in your house now? Tell me what you're fooling up with? As the old saying goes, each family sweeps the snow in front of its own door. Does it have anything to do with you that they starved to death and died of illness? Don't think about how to raise your son as an adult, and care about others every day, do you tell me if you are full? Zhang Damin slammed his glass on the table.

"But..." Wu Fen was ready to explain.

"But what? From ancient times to the present, which dynasty and which generation of ordinary people have had a better life. If they read and read, if they work hard, can they work the railway every day and eat moldy food? As the saying goes, it's better to lead a horse and whip a good man than to be an ancestor to Lai Han, these people will drag you to death. I tell you, if you continue to be obsessed with this, let alone you, your two children will have to be buried with these railroad workers. Zhang Damin threatened.

Wu Fen was a little panicked when he heard this, "No, these are my own ideas, and they have nothing to do with my son." Wu Fen tightly grabbed Zhang Damin's sleeve.

Zhang Damin shook off angrily, "Fart, didn't you give birth to your son?" As long as you gave birth to it, it has something to do with you. Look at the dishes on this table, who gave it to you, this is what Wu Dashuai gave you, you weigh it carefully, don't eat whose food and smash whose pot. ”

Wu Fen sighed heavily, and he reluctantly took a glass of white wine and drank it.

Zhang Damin finally broke through Wu Fen's inner defense, and his tone softened, "Say, what are the plans of your so-called organization?" ”

Wu Fen nodded, "We have to organize all the laborers on the Chuankou Railway to fight against the people under Wu Dashuai." ”

Zhang Damin knocked on the table, "To get to the point, what is your specific plan for this strike?" ”

"This time our action was arranged under the auspices of Representative Mao. The first was the establishment of the Kawaguchi Railway Union and the convening of the first enlarged meeting of workers. We have to tell them at the meeting that they have been treated unfairly, and we have to stand up and resist and put forward our reasonable demands like Beiyang. If Wu Dashuai's men still do not meet our demands further, the second step will be to launch a strike by all the workers of the Kawaguchi Railway. All passenger cars, trucks, and the vehicles they were transporting arms were stopped. Wu Fen told all the plans he had discussed with Representative Mao.

Zhang Damin showed a sly smile on his face, "So that's the case, as soon as the Chuankou Railway is paralyzed, the people's livelihood in the entire Hubei will be chaotic, no wonder Lao Liang is so anxious for me to deal with this matter, this matter can't be done, don't say that his hat is not guaranteed, and even his head will be lost." ”

"I've told you everything I know, but don't tell them I told you." Wu Fen gulped down the cold beef in front of him. "It tastes so good, I haven't had a serious meal in a long time recently."

"If you write me the addresses of all the workers, if I can put out the fire of these fanatics, then the workers' movement will be half cool." Zhang Damin said.

Wu Fen shook his head, "You are a little whimsical, these people are hard bones. In particular, Wang Fubao is the big brother of the workers, he speaks, and there are no workers who do not stop. ”

"Hardbones, I'm a bunch of. The reason why the workers are striking is for money. I put real money in front of these representatives, and I don't believe they are not tempted. Write the address quickly, and I'll take this Wang Fubao first.

Report to me at any time if you have any news in the past two days, what to do next, you wait for my news. Again, as long as you cooperate well, you will be rich and glorious. If you dare to continue tossing, you will be cut off. Zhang Damin threw down this sentence and left.

When he arrived at the door, he instructed the plainclothes, "Leave a brother to keep an eye on Wu Fen, this person is now our internal response." ”

Then he stumbled to Wang Fubao's house with a few plainclothes men. The road was muddy, and Zhang Damin felt like lead was poured into his feet. He pulled his leather shoes out of the mud and slammed them into the mud. "That's how these workers usually go to work?"

Plainclothes replied, "yes, didn't you work on the railroad before?" You don't know about them, do you? ”

Zhang Damin shook his head, "I'm just maintaining order at Hankou Station and sharing the money or something, why do I know the situation of the workers?" I'm overwhelmed? ”

I don't know how long I walked, but I finally arrived. Zhang Damin was sore and panting, standing outside Wang Fubao's house and listening to the movements inside.

"Dad, I'm so worried. Is what Representative Mao said just now really achievable? The daughter-in-law asked him while taking care of the sleeping child.

The family of five slept in this bed.

Wang Fubao nodded, "He was sent by the Communist Party, and they played an important role in the previous strike in Hong Kong, and in the end, those capitalists and officials agreed to the workers' demands to increase wages and punish the foremen." ”

"But I'm always worried, if something happens to you, who do we orphans and widows count on?" The daughter-in-law cried and lay in Wang Fubao's arms.

"The big deal is death, and now our days are better than death!" Wang Fubao said angrily.

"Her father, it's better to die than to live. The children are still young, can you really bear to watch them lose their fathers when they are young? ”

The daughter-in-law said.

"That's right, my sister-in-law knows the severity." Zhang Damin walked in from the door with applause. "You are Brother Wang Fubao, why don't you lock the door so late, aren't you afraid of recruiting thieves?"

Wang Fubao sneered, "Look at what I have in this house that can make thieves worry about it." Who are you? Why did you come to my house? ”
