Chapter 631: Unaffordable Respect (3600+)
Hehe's weird smile, Brother Rundong obviously didn't regard this as suffering, and then he suddenly asked me leisurely and solemnly:
"Ling Feng, what do you say is the purpose of our Communist Party to help those ordinary people?"
"You guys? Oh...... It is nothing more than seizing power and giving the people rights and interests, or becoming officials! Oh...... Is there anything wrong?"
I think maybe Brother Rundong won't think so, but as a group of the Communist Party, it must have this purpose, otherwise who wants to do those things that are hard and have no oil and water, but halfway through speaking, I saw Brother Rundong shaking his head.
Brother Rundong kept shaking his head slowly, and then after taking a deep breath, he said slowly:
"In fact, I now found out that ordinary people don't know what rights and interests are, they only know about eating and dressing. β
"Of course, what do you mean by this that your Communist Party can solve the two things of eating and dressing?"
I asked, puzzled.
These two things are simple, but they are a big deal for the common people, and they are also the most difficult thing to solve in Shenghua in the current warlord melee, the warlords have to be the emperor of the soil, and they desperately want the people at the bottom to provide them with a life of fine clothes and food, and the people at the bottom can now say that the people are not living.
Brother Rundong did not answer my question directly, but asked me again:
"Do you know how much a day a day a small worker is in the city?"
"3 to 5 copper coins!"
I said that I am also a child of a poor family, so I still know a little about this.
"Three copper coins! A family of three, this can only allow this family to drink two meals of porridge a day, and there are no vegetables, or gruel! Do you say these people need rights?"
Speaking of this, Brother Rundong's face was already solemn.
I didn't say anything more, this is the most real living situation of the people at the bottom of society now, and these people are by no means a minority, it can even be said that 60% of people in society are now living a life of two meals of porridge a day, that is, the vast majority of people do not have enough to eat.
After a pause, Brother Rundong continued:
"So these workers don't need rights at all, you talk to them about rights, they don't understand, but you say, find a way to add one or two copper coins a day to those workers, they will understand, and they will support us. β
Frowning, I thought about it and felt that it was wrong, so I asked Brother Rundong:
"So your Communist Party doesn't organize the Roviet Magic Circle now, and has it become a way to help the workers ask for wages?"
"Yes, I don't think it makes sense for workers to talk about rights and interests now, their rights are reflected in the income of their daily labor, and we help them fight for some wages, which is more convincing than rights. β
Brother Rundong replied to me with great certainty.
I don't care what Brother Rundong is going to do, of course, I actually think what he is doing now is more reliable than before, but I still don't understand why he has to come to AXA Raw Mine, so I continue to ask:
"It's okay to fight for wages for workers, but you can also fight for it in Changsheng Sha City, there are many magic factories in Changsheng Sha City, and the people there don't have enough to eat, why do you have to go to Ansheng Raw Mine?"
"I've tried those magic factories in Changsheng Sand City, but the results are not good. β
Brother Rundong said very happily.
It seems that he really tried, and when I saw this, I pursed my lips and immediately retorted-for-tat:
"That shows that your ideas are not accepted by the people, and your work to help people fight for their rights and interests is also thankless, since people don't accept it, I don't think you need to go to Anshengyuan to try again!"
"I've analysed the problem, it's not like that. β
Brother Rundong shook his head decisively, he was actually very solemn, and then explained to me very formally: "Now the people who can enter the magic factory in the city are a few people with knowledge, and their wages after entering the factory are a little higher than those of others, with 5 copper coins a day, in fact, such people are very respected in the city, so these people don't care about their own rights and interests, they feel that their wages are more than others, and they are not urgent about their own rights and interests, so they are not very concerned about rights and interests for the time being." β
Hearing Brother Rundong say this, I thought about it, that's the case.
Two more copper coins, that's a lot!
People are not afraid of comparison, some people have two more copper coins than others, they think it is very bullish, and they feel that they are people!
Now in the Shenghua Civil Rights Empire, the number of magic factories is very small, and the people who can go to work in the magic factory can be said to have a relationship to get in, and working there is a very glorious thing in itself, and the income is better than those who can't eat enough food and clothing, and the income is better than those who can't eat and wear, of course, these people are not willing to follow Brother Rundong to fight for any rights and interests, many people are still small and rich, those people talk about it, and let them accept the things of the Communist Party, most of these people will stay away.
"Therefore, only those people and laborers at the bottom who work the hardest, have no guarantee of rights, have low wages, and are not respected by others, they hope to get more money from the foreman to come back to support their families, they really want to redistribute their rights, they want to show their strength, and they also want to have their own rights and interests, so I want to go to AXA Mine to practice once. β
Brother Rundong summed up his thinking.
There is a little bit of truth, but I didn't expect Rundong to love to ponder these things, and he can figure out his own truth in such a little thing.
Of course, I can guess that Brother Rundong came to this conclusion with constant trying, if he hadn't gone to various magic factories before and was rejected by workers who earned 5 copper coins, he wouldn't have found that these people in Ansheng Raw Mine needed more help, just like when he was in school, without his constant cultivation in the rain and in the downtown area, in the end, he would not have found the benefits of organizing night classes.
Brother Rundong has not changed in my eyes, he is still the same as before, and he is also a tendon.
It's just that Brother Rundong is more thoughtful now.
Whether it is right or wrong, Brother Rundong will try his best to find a reason to convince himself, so as to adjust himself, but if he thinks that he is not wrong, or if he can't find a reason, he will continue to persevere until he gives himself a satisfactory explanation.
Knowing that Brother Rundong came for a purpose, I have nothing to complain about, the key is that it is useless to complain, I know his character too well, and he must try if he has any ideas.
Of course, to help some poor people get paid, it sounds new to me.
I'll just take it as a friendship sponsor, and I'll take a look at the excitement by the way.
Fortunately, we saw a minecart on the way to AXA to transport ore, and we took a ride, which made our next trip easier.
Although the journey has become easier, the road ahead is getting worse and worse.
The road leading to the mine is like a road to endless darkness, and you can imagine the scene.
There are black and gray slag and ore everywhere, very dirty, and the further you go, the thicker the black becomes, I swear that next time I will never accompany Brother Rundong to this place, of course, I believe that Brother Rundong should not come next time, there is no need! Giving lectures in the city's own bookstore is also propaganda, why do you have to come to this place.
One time is enough, just do your part, and I believe that Brother Rundong doesn't want to come a second time.
Further into the mining area, there are no other colors here, all black and gray mine tones, there is not even green grass here, everything around seems to be covered with slag and ore, black and gray houses, black and gray streets, and even black and gray people, we have almost entered the black and gray world.
"When we arrived, it was the residential area of the mine. β
The person who was carrying us stopped the car and reminded us loudly.
"Thank you, big brother!"
When we got out of the car, people all over the street were looking at the two of us with strange eyes, and it was easy to tell that we were not locals, and we could tell from the color of our bodies, because we were not black and gray, but very eye-catching.
But those people don't look at us like they see the eyes of rare animals, there is no mockery, no rejection, some are just blank and incomprehensible, if you distinguish carefully, those people's eyes seem to have a trace of ... Awe, even timidity.
They all looked at the two of us from a distance, and even some of them felt that they were too close to us, and deliberately walked farther away, they were more than twenty or thirty meters away from us.
"Hello uncle!"
Brother Rundong obviously also noticed that the people around him were keeping an extremely unfamiliar distance from the two of us, so Brother Rundong wanted to break this unfamiliar state, spread out a bright smile, greeted an older person warmly, and walked over.
"Oh...... , alas, you, hello!"
The uncle turned his head and looked quickly left and right at him, and when he saw that there was no one else, the other party was really greeting him, and the expression on his face suddenly distorted, as if to show friendliness, but his face was struggling, and he immediately curled up and nodded, and his nodding was completely like bowing, as if he was making a gesture.
"Uncle, what are you doing here?"
Brother Rundong still chatted with each other as relaxed as possible, and approached each other at the same time, hoping to get closer to each other and not seem too distant and unfamiliar.
"Mine... , miner, I'm a miner. β
When the uncle saw the stranger in light gray clothes approaching, very close to him, he was so nervous that his body froze, and he wanted to stand up a little more with his curled body, but he didn't dare to stand too straight, and even I could feel it, he was holding his breath, and he was so nervous that it was like a small soldier in the barracks who had made a mistake and was discovered by the highest commander, and he was very frightened.
At this moment, the embarrassed person became Brother Rundong, feeling the other party's nervousness, he didn't know what to do, neither did he advance, nor did he retreat, he thought about it, anyway, he had already come over He simply walked over and patted the uncle's arm, although it was a little choking to shoot a piece of dust, but Brother Rundong still pretended not to see, and said with a smile:
"Uncle, don't be nervous, let's chat casually. β
β... Yes!"
After the uncle was slapped on the arm by Brother Rundong's enthusiastic hand, his body became even more stiff and very nervous, and his body was a little trembling when he looked like that.
And we saw that sweat was already oozing from the uncle's forehead, he was obviously frightened, and the people around him did not laugh at the uncle because he was too nervous, and some even ran away in fright, afraid of being patted on the shoulder by Brother Rundong.
In fact, the performance of these miners at the moment is quite ridiculous.
But I couldn't laugh, because I could guess that these miners had been suppressed for too long and too fiercely, and they instinctively feared when they saw well-dressed people (of course, Rundong was still the faded gray-white coat), because they thought they were too humble, and they thought they could not afford respect and equality.
Next, Brother Rundong tried to say a few words to the uncle, but the uncle only answered all of Brother Rundong's questions in two words, 'yes' and 'no'.
Seeing this, I know that it is impossible for Brother Rundong's propaganda work to continue this time.
Yes, normal communication can't be carried out, where is the propaganda?
Now if these people are given equality and respect, they can't afford it, they think they are humble, if they really give these people rights, they will be afraid, they will be uneasy, they will be so nervous that they are suffocated.
These people do need rights, just look at the clothes on their bodies, but they think they are inferior, they talk to us ordinary people as if they are a little nervous, do they have the courage to ask the whip-wielding worker for processing money?
I shook my head, if I could get these people to accept the Rovière idea, it would be like making a flower grow out of the slag.
