199 [Calm the Rest]
There were seven beaters, not Japanese, but Chinese patrols in the Japanese concession. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
In the late Qing Dynasty, the great powers established concessions in China, followed by the emergence of the Concession Police Agency. Since the Chinese people did not have the concept of police at that time, they called this concession police agency the patrol house.
At the beginning, the patrol house only recruited foreigners, and there were no restrictions, resulting in a large number of foreigners of unknown origin becoming policemen, which caused public resentment to boil. As a last resort, the Concession Patrol House began to recruit Chinese in order to improve the police atmosphere - not because there were not enough foreigners.
In the beginning, the requirements for patrolling and arresting Chinese in the concession were very high, and all those with criminal records were not required, and at least one-third of them were highly educated (mainly students and foreign bank employees).
But the situation has developed so far, and it has become a mess. The elements of the Chinese patrol are extremely complex, and there are all kinds of corruption, bribery, extortion, and extortion...... There's nothing bad they don't dare to do.
The situation in the British, French, American, Italian and other concessions was slightly better, and basically every few years they had to deal with a batch of those who had a bad reputation and drove them out of the police force.
But the Japanese concession is an exception, whether it is the Japanese concession in Tianjin or Shanghai, it is the dirtiest and chaotic of all the concessions. As long as those Chinese patrols were obedient, the Japanese did not care about their evil deeds at all, which led to the Chinese patrols in the Japanese concession becoming more and more arrogant.
At this moment, after injuring the staff of the department store, the seven Chinese patrols not only did not admit their mistakes, but instead flaunted their might and said: "We wear this uniform to represent the Japanese emperor!" ”
The Chinese onlookers were immediately filled with righteous indignation and spontaneously blocked the entrance of the mall, intercepting the way of those Chinese patrols.
The Chinese who can afford to visit the department store are not low-level civilians, at least they are company employees with stable jobs. Thinking about it, it is clear that the ticket for the Central Plains Amusement Park is 4 jiao, plus tea and drinks, and it costs at least 1 yuan to watch a half-day performance, which is enough for a family of three at the bottom for a few days.
"Stop, you must apologize!" A slightly chubby lady yelled.
Someone took the lead, and other onlookers responded. There was even a man with glasses in a suit and leather shoes, who grabbed the placket of the Chinese patrol and said, "Wearing this dog skin is Japanese?" You traitor! ”
At least dozens of people surrounded the seven Chinese patrols. When they saw the public outrage, they immediately became frightened, and one of them suddenly pulled out an iron whistle and blew it with all his strength -- calling for police support.
"Phew!"
The whistle blew.
Before the police came, Lin Ziyuan, the manager of the department store, had already arrived, and he asked the employees present: "What the hell is going on?" ”
The frightened staff of the mall replied: "Manager Lin, these patrol houses took advantage of our inattention and secretly took away a few pairs of British leather shoes on the counter. After we found out, not only did they not give money, but they also started beating people. Hua Zhu, who had a mole on his forehead, also fired a shot at the ceiling, and the bullet bounced back and injured the customer. ”
Lin Ziyuan was furious when he heard this, but the Central Plains Department Store had Japanese shares, and even the Japanese Consul General in Tianjin personally attended the reception on the opening day. A few Chinese arresters in the Japanese concession actually bullied the Central Plains Company.
"Stop them, I'll call the Japanese consulate!" After Lin Ziyuan finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Those Chinese patrols are already confused, and if they really make trouble at the Japanese consulate, they will definitely be punished.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, or I'll shoot!" A few Chinese patrols wanted to slip away, but as long as they weren't caught red-handed, they could deny it.
Seeing this, Zhou Hexuan suddenly roared: "Kill the traitor!" ”
The onlookers, who were originally frightened by the gun, immediately rushed forward with blood when they heard the word "traitor". Even those wealthy ladies and noblewomen smashed their handbags indiscriminately, and everyone worked together to press those Hua Catchers to the ground and beat them up.
There is still hope for this country.
Zhou Hexuan smiled happily: "Let's go, don't look at the excitement." ”
As in history, the opening of the Central Plains Amusement Park caused a lot of trouble, and the Japanese Consulate was forced to accept the complaint of the Central Plains Company under the pressure of public opinion, and arrested those troublemakers.
As for the ending, it's over.
So the Japanese think very strangely.,It's just a few gangsters who are caught in China.,After being fired, it's re-recruited.。 However, they felt that the Japanese Concession represented the prestige of the Japanese Concession and could not be easily compromised.
It must be vigorously maintained, and only then will the Chinese do their best for the Japanese Empire!
As a result, those Chinese arresters were only locked up for a few days, and they did not ask for their guilt or compensate for their losses. In less than a week, he was patrolling the streets with guns on his back. They even deliberately went to department stores, and when they paid for things, they brazenly ridiculed and threatened the mall staff.
The Central Plains Company was afraid of annoying the Japanese, so it actually stopped pursuing it, and asked its own staff to have a better attitude towards the Chinese patrol, and fired anyone who caused a dispute.
……
A few days later, a young man with a blue nose and swollen face came to the China Broadcasting Corporation and asked to see Zhou Hexuan by name.
Liao Yaquan brought him in, and before Zhou Hexuan could speak, the man cried and said, "Mr. Zhou, you have to be the master for me!" ”
Zhou Hexuan was a little puzzled and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
The man complained: "My name is Lu Youfu, and I am a salesperson of Zhongyuan Company, and I found out that Hua Zhu was stealing things that day. Those dogs took revenge on me and took me to the patrol room indiscriminately when I was off work, saying that I had stolen other people's things. Not only did they beat me up, but they also locked me up for three whole days, and now the company has fired me too! The whole family is counting on me to earn money to eat, what can I do now? ”
It was not easy to find a job in the Republic of China, not to mention intellectuals, and ordinary civilians had to be guaranteed to even be apprentices. Once a crime is committed, basically no unit will be willing to hire it, and those who are fired by the company will be even more discriminated against.
Zhou Hexuan smiled bitterly: "I'm not a consular court, how can I help you make the decision?" ”
Lu Youfu said helplessly: "Mr. Zhou, you are a great benevolent person, and your broadcast has a great impact, and many people in Tianjin are listening to it. I don't have any other ideas, I just want to tell the truth on the radio, give me a clear name, and let me find a job elsewhere. ”
"Don't worry, let me think about it first," Zhou Hexuan comforted, he took out two silver dollars and said, "You can take this money to treat your injuries, and come back tomorrow, I promise to help you get justice." ”
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou," Lu Youfu said gratefully, "but I can't ask for this money." ”
Zhou Hexuan asked curiously: "Listen to you speak in an orderly manner, I have read books before." ”
Lu Youfu said: "I learned carpentry from my uncle since I was a child, I knew arithmetic, and I also studied in the civilian open-air school for a few days. By the way, I can also speak a few sentences in English, choking, hugging, Gudmorin, three grams of oil, Gudebai, and consuming Maggie. ”
Zhou Hexuan smiled and said, "I still don't have a miscellaneous person in this radio station, you can come to work tomorrow." Your Tianjin accent is too heavy, if you practice Chinese well, and recognize a few more words, you may be able to become an announcer in the future. ”
"Really?" Lu Youfu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Then don't help me do the radio to offend the Japanese, so as not to trouble you, Mr. Zhou, anyway, I have already found a job." ”
Alas, we people like to settle things.
Whether it is the Central Plains Department Store or this salesperson named Lu Youfu, they all think that more is better than less.
Zhou Hexuan waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, the radio still has to be done, just listen to my news." ”
Zhou Hexuan wants to take advantage of this incident to make a radio talk show, which is absolutely fresh in the Republic of China.
