Chapter 136: The Workers' Own Song
Director Liang and Zhang Damin discussed for a long time outside the theater but there was no result, and Director Liang's careful thinking was that if the workers' meeting could be stopped now and the workers could resume work, he would be regarded as a meritorious service. But how is it good that the envoy gave a death order and could not clash with the workers?
"Chief!" The director hurried over.
The director of the hall said angrily, "Why did you go?" How did you come here? ”
Of course, the director couldn't expose the poisonous plan he discussed with Xu Hu, he didn't answer the question directly, turned a corner and said, "They already have a meeting inside?" ”
"yes, the shouting is so loud, I don't know what I want to do?" Zhang Damin reported on the situation of the textile theater.
"Director, it's not a matter for us to wait like this! In the past few days, Hankow has suffered a serious shortage of food, and the people have complained that if the problems of the workers cannot be properly solved, I am afraid that there will be a civil uprising! ”
The whereabouts of the Tiger Head Gang and the Revolutionary Party Wu Jingya are unknown, and at this time, martial law is lifted, and the jade seal will not be found at all. "Consideration could be given to letting some patrol officers go out of the city to bring in food, but martial law must not be lifted. The most important question now is how to get workers to stop meeting and get back to work. ”
The director smiled and said, "Director, I mean we can send Zhang Damin to bring a few patrol officers in to talk to the workers' representatives, he is familiar with the railway, even if he can't stop them from holding meetings, he can know what the workers want to do next, and we can also prepare!" ”
Seeing that Director Liang had no objection, the director called Zhang Damin aside, "When you go in for a while, you must have a polite dialogue and exchange with the workers, understand their demands, and never break out into conflict." The director's voice was very loud, obviously this sentence was for the director, and as soon as he finished speaking, he whispered to Zhang Damin, "After a while, you went in and put a fire in the theater and burned him to death a few workers, understand?" ”
Zhang Damin nodded slightly and immediately took action.
The director looked at his watch, and when Zhang Damin was almost ready, the operation outside was almost ready to begin.
After the workers finished signing, they sat back in their original positions. Shi San happily held up the petition and said, "I promise you that we will fight for everyone's rights and interests based on reason." Brother Lu, alas, what about Lu diastole? ”
Wang Fubao shouted loudly, "That kid went to the toilet to." ”
The workers were amused by Wang Fubao's words.
Shi San also smiled, "Vice Chairman Lu has also worked hard these days, he has not been busy day or night, and he has no time to go to the toilet." We'll wait for him to come back. ”
Shi San nodded to the worker with the harmonica, and the worker walked up with understanding. Shi San continued, "Workers, today our union was established, and we will no longer be a group of loose forces in the future, we will be an organization. It's good that everyone waved their arms and shouted our slogans when we went to the theater today, but I think we should also sing our own songs so that the enemies know more about our power. I have here a foreign tune, which must be sung by foreign workers when they march and fight, and this song represents the demands of all our working class. ”
Wang Fubao looked at Shi San in embarrassment, "Representative Shi, our workers generally don't know much, I'm afraid you won't be able to learn this foreign song!" ”
Shi San waved his hand, "It's okay, what about this song, my good friend Chunhei has translated him into Chinese, the song is very simple, let's let this little brother use the harmonica to accompany us, I'll sing a sentence, let's sing a sentence, okay?" ”
The little worker wiped his harmonica with a creaky nest, and he had been practicing this simple score for a day, and the melody was very exciting. The prelude to the song sounded through the loudspeakers, and the harmonica of the little workers was very attractive, and the workers listened to the new melody with their ears pricked up.
Representative Shi drew a beat on his hand, waiting to enter the rhythm point of the song, "Get up, you who are insulted and cursed!" Arise, hungry slaves of the world! Full of enthusiasm, desperate to the death. The old society has been completely destroyed, and the new society has been created with glory. Mo Dao we are worthless, from now on we must have the world. My voice is average, but it's not out of tune, and everyone follows me. It's the first paragraph just now, I'll sing the second paragraph to you again, and we'll do it together in a while. No matter whether it is a hero or an old emperor, no one can liberate us, only on ourselves. We must sweep away all the oppression and fight for our rights. While this furnace is hot, it is just time to be angry and hammered. ”
The workers thought that this song was difficult, but Shi San just sang it once, and many of the lyrics in it were repeated by the workers. Wang Fubao closed his eyes and recalled the content of the lyrics, "Get up, you are insulted and cursed!" Arise, hungry slaves of the world! It seems that the suffering of our workers is the same in every country, that we are the poor workers of the whole world are one family, that we are not alone, that we have good brothers of all languages, of all colours. ”
Shi San said loudly, "Brothers workers, we used to always want others to make decisions for us, do you know what the Lord is? The Lord is no one else, the Lord is in our hearts, and from today onwards we are to be our own masters. ”
Outside the door of the theater, Zhang Damin listened to the songs that kept repeating and reverberating, he was deeply shocked, what kind of strength is this, what kind of courage is this, if these people are not eliminated, it will become a big disaster in the future. They are more ferocious than any bottom-up force in history, Li Zicheng, Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Xiang Yu, and Liu Bang are worthless in front of them.
Several patrol officers brought in gasoline cans and spilled them at the exit and entrance of the theater. Zhang Damin bowed his body and carefully inspected the situation inside. The workers were engrossed in singing at this time, and they were not aware of the situation outside the theater.
Lu Shuzhang stretched out of the toilet and walked out, just now when he was still in the toilet when he heard this song, then he suddenly realized that the song that Shi San hummed to everyone in the duty room today is now sung by the workers. This song is really infectious, and Lu Shu unconsciously hummed along with it. Singing all the way, he walked to the entrance, and he saw Zhang Damin and a few patrol officers, "Who are you and what are you going to do?" ”
Zhang Damin heard a voice coming from behind him, and immediately panicked, fortunately the singing was very loud, and the workers inside did not hear the shout just now. Zhang Damin calmly turned around and looked at Lu Shuzhang, "Ao, it turned out to be Brother Lu!" ”
