Chapter 59: The Hope and Despair of the Hard-Pressed Coachmen
"Slowly? I only came to the car dealership to collect money once in half a month, and you told me slowly? You're sincere enough to block me, aren't you? ”
Xiao Laojiu, who looked to be in his forties, was happy, and the golden light that showed a smile full of big gold teeth was particularly terrifying: "You are not the first day to pull a car at my Zhengxing car dealership, and you know the rule that you don't pay money, right?" ”
Hearing this, a group of men around him chattered and laughed, and their fists were squeezed, while Dong Debiao was already pale!
The muffled sound of the wooden stick as thick as a child's arm, as well as Dong Debiao's heart-rending howl, echoed in the Zhengxing car dealership, and listening to it made people's hearts cold and sweaty hairs stood on end!
After the ten sticks, Dong Debiao almost didn't even have the strength to get up.
"Rules are rules!"
Xiao Laojiu grinned with gold teeth and chattered: "Since you have entered my Zhengxing car dealership, you must abide by the rules of the car dealership, if anyone violates the rules, Dong Debiao's fate is your fate......"
More than 100 rickshaw drivers looked at Dong Debiao's tragic situation and felt grief and indignation, but they could only lower their heads and dare not let Xiao Laojiu and his subordinates see their faces.
Everyone knows that Xiao Laojiu can run rampant in this city, not only because he has dozens of subordinates, but also because he has dealings with the gendarmerie and the head of the garrison, Guo Tuan, if he offends him, he will be beaten lightly, and there is no place to reason if he is killed!
In this world, who cares about the life or death of a group of coolies pulling rickshaws?
It wasn't until Xiao Laojiu finished his training that no one dared to come out and help Dong Debiao leave, looking at Dong Debiao's bruised and swollen back, I don't know how many drivers couldn't help but have red circles and sour noses and wanted to cry, because everyone knows that Dong Debiao was beaten this time, not only because he couldn't pay the money for half a month, but also because Dong Debiao tried to call on everyone to set up a coachmen's union a while ago and strive to reduce the amount of money from the car dealership, but unfortunately I don't know why there is no follow-up.
Xiao Laojiu took this opportunity to beat Dong Debiao, and it was clearly in Liwei!
"Phew, a stinky cart puller doesn't know how to pull a cart well, and he actually wants to do a union with a bang!"
"Ninth Master, if you want to come to this fight, you must make these cart pullers understand, if you want to beg for food in this city, you have to abide by the rules of Ninth Master, dare to go against you, and the end is death......"
A group of men looked at the back of Dong Debiao, who was helping the drivers to leave, chattered and scolded, not caring whether the drivers would hear it or not.
Xiao Laojiu was smoking a cigarette stick, his eyes gloomy.
How could he not know that with Dong Debiao himself, he definitely didn't have the insight to engage in any trade union against him, and there must be an underground party instigating him behind him.
Fortunately, in the last student parade, the gendarmes and the secret police worked together to wipe out those revolutionary parties, otherwise, Xiao Laojiu knew that he might not dare to act on Dong Debiao so rashly - those underground parties' demagogic skills are obvious to all, and even Chairman Jiang didn't have a very good way, let alone his ninth-rate small role?
Just as I was thinking about this, someone came in.
"Brother Qin, what kind of wind blew you here?"
As soon as he saw the arrival, Xiao Laojiu, who was full of style, hurriedly got up to greet him, this Qin Feng has been a celebrity around Young Master Guo recently, how dare he slack off?
"The Ninth Master is getting more and more majestic now!"
Qin Feng smiled predictively, obviously when he came in, he saw Dong Debiao and a group of coachmen.
"It's all Captain Guo and Captain Luo, who enjoy the food and eat, otherwise how can I have a foothold in this city......"
Xiao Laojiu smiled all over his face, and ordered his subordinates to hurry up to the restaurant to buy wine and food, and said: "Brother, your noble business is busy, it is rare to come over, let's have a few drinks today......
"Excuse me, I'm here to pass a word on behalf of Guo Shao!"
Qin Feng said: "Young Master Guo has been disgraced today, and he is in a very bad mood, I have to go back early, I don't have time to delay here!" ”
"In this city, there are still people who dare not give the young master face? That's too bold, isn't it? Xiao Laojiu was surprised.
Qin Feng then said the ins and outs of the future: "The regiment commander is deeply relied on by General Feng, and the future is immeasurable, the young master doesn't want to ruin the reputation of the regiment commander because of this little thing, so he can only ask you for help, Ninth Master, you have to handle this matter properly!" ”
"A little miscellaneous fish actually dares to be rude to the young master, it's just looking for death!"
Xiao Laojiu snorted, and with a wave of his hand, someone handed him a tube of Guangyang, and then he smiled and said: "I hope that my brother will tell Young Master Guo that I will definitely help him do this properly, and the young master also hopes that my brother will say a few more kind words......"
"Well said, well said!"
Qin Feng took Guangyang, laughed, and said in his heart that Wang Dong and Xu Ming had better die outside, if they come back, such a good thing, where can they still have their own share?
on the streets.
A group of coachmen hugged Dong Debiao home in the cold wind, looking at Dong Debiao who was moaning constantly, and his mood was unbearable.
Dong Debiao wanted to comfort everyone, but he couldn't say anything when he thought about his situation.
I thought that if I established a guild, we would be able to fight against Xiao Laojiu together, and the life of the brothers would be a little better, but who knew that if I fell short, I didn't say that I would be beaten half to death, thinking about this, I could only look up to the sky and sigh, two lines of tears rolled out of my eyes, and I said in my heart that in this world, I really don't give myself a little way to live for a hard-working person like myself......
"Brother Dong......"
When the young coachman Wan Tao saw Dong Debiao's appearance, he comforted him in a low voice: "Don't think too much, wait for everything to heal from your injuries, as for the money or something next time, the brothers will help you make up some money, and you can always survive it......"
"Thank you, brethren!"
Hearing this, Dong Debiao was moved and began to wipe away his tears again.
"Don't say this kind of thing, if it weren't for everyone, you wouldn't have been beaten like this by the surname Xiao......"
Wan Tao and other drivers said one after another, thinking about the union that could not be finally established, and everyone was unwilling.
When people live, the most fearful thing is never that there is no hope, because if there is no hope, then there will be no disappointment.
What people are most afraid of is that they have just seen hope and begin to imagine the beauty behind it, but that hope is ruthlessly extinguished in an instant, and the blow of that disappointment often makes people feel hopeless......
Dong Debiao knew how disappointed Wan Tao and the others were, or that he was the most disappointed of all the drivers.
It's a pity that he knows that everyone is disappointed, but Dong Debiao doesn't have any solution, he is not a leader, without the advice of those underground parties, he began to be at a loss, and he didn't even have the courage to resist in the face of severe beatings.
He is looking forward to it, looking forward to someone standing up, leading everyone, giving everyone strength, and leading everyone to fight against Xiao Laojiu.
It's a pity that there are no such people.
Such people were, and are now hanging, from the city, to be dried into jerky.
