Chapter 396: Return to Shiquan Town

"This is Neville Duncan, a former dock worker who took the lead in the battle with the San Francisco Aquatic Workers Association, capturing the president of the opposing association."

"This is Andri Gordon, a fitter, who used the terrain to gain the right to speak for the workers of the Fifth Block, and bought time for our follow-up arrival."

"Ah, this one, well, this one's name is Ryan Bowen, a native lumberjack who battled the police in the process of reclaiming a lumberyard near San Francisco, and "legally" and "reasonably" secured the support of lumberjacks. ”

In the office of the Knights of California Labor, Hawley introduces the bearded Cronin to his "right-hand men."

They stood in a row, their heads held high, each contributing to the growth of the Order.

The bearded man walked in front of them as if he were inspecting.

He was very satisfied with the results achieved so far and did not mind the means Hawley had taken.

On the contrary, he also appreciates it very much.

Now look up.

Who has the final say in the labor movement in San Francisco.

The answer is only the Knights, and the Workers' Party has to stand aside.

So, what kind of did my subordinates do before?

Bader is the licking dog of headquarters, stupid and faced, and too soft to be good;

"Hyena" and "Cripple", these two people have not even been found.

Forget it, these two goods are not counted, they were originally named here, and they are not under their own control.

The young man named Moody in front of him is brave and strategic, just right.

"Our purpose is to serve Mr. Cronin!" Led by Hawley, the workers shouted in unison.

Cronin was very satisfied.

"Excellent! Very energetic! ”

He waved his hand at the platoon, "You are now the core officers of the Executive Committee of the California Branch of the Knights of Labor!" ”

Several workers resisted the urge to look at each other, stared ahead, and did not speak.

In the end, Hawley reacted quickly: "Thank you for your trust!" ”

The bearded man was even more satisfied, and he turned to Holly: "This team, you are very good, from now on, you will be the vice president!" ”

He patted Holly on the shoulder: "Good job!" ”

"What about Bedd? What do they do? There will always be no problems over there. Hawley walked over to the bearded man and asked in a low voice.

"Let them die." The bearded man was dismissive, "The purpose of my establishment of the Executive Committee is to put out traitors like Bader. ”

"If he doesn't want to, he can go back to the east at any time."

Hawley took a deep breath.

The Executive Committee of the Knights of the California Labor Order consists of eight people.

Bearded, president, he, vice president.

And the rest of the "worker officers" are actually detectives under Hanif.

These people mixed in before Hawley joined the labor corps, but because the level was really not good, they didn't mix well.

Now.

Except for the boss, the rest are undercover!

Hawley pondered.

Otherwise, it's better to ask Chen Jianqiu to serve the knights in a pot.

However, Chen Jianqiu's reply to him was:

Continue to stay in the Knights of Labor, using his identity to find a way to avoid conflicts between the Chinese and the low-level laborers.

If you have an idea, it's better to do it with Dennis's Workers' Party.

It's a promising career.

Another month passed, and after a midnight rally, the bearded man called Hawley aside.

"Moody, there's a mission for you."

"Well, please, President." Hawley crossed his hands on his waist and tilted his head to listen to the bearded man's commands.

"Notification was received from headquarters that they intend to conduct a unified coal mine strike action along the Pacific Railroad."

The bearded man took a telegram from his bosom and handed it to Hawley.

Hawley read the contents of the telegram by the light of the fire.

The telegram said that the Knights of Labor in California needed some assistance for the strike action in Wyoming.

"Wyoming? Assist? What does that mean? He looked up at the bearded man, "Isn't it true that we're going straight to the organization?" ”

"That's the problem." The bearded man rubbed his nose, "The headquarters will send commissioners to the west, and several states are one unit, and this kind of cross-state thing is usually done by them." ”

"Can they control us?" Hawley was a little confused.

"it, in my opinion, these people are-stirring sticks." The bearded man was dismissive, "We are developing so well, why should we listen to them." ”

"Can we manage them?" Hawley asked again.

"Well, that's not going to happen."

"That's too messy, isn't it?" Hawley has a head and two large.

"Strictly speaking, we do our own thing." The bearded man added below.

Hawley roughly understood that the relationship between the headquarters of the Order and the various branches was probably the relationship between the Federation and the states.

"Then let them do it themselves, what the hell?" Hawley shoved the telegram back into the bearded man's hand.

"Assistance is still needed." The bearded man lowered his voice and said to Hawley, "I want you to come along." ”

"President, can you go somebody?" Hawley had a refusal written on his face, "I can't do this, if something goes wrong, do you listen to him or me?" ”

"Moody! Is that all you talking to me? Young people, don't be too aggressive! The bearded man's face rose and he put on a leader's stand.

"If you're not angry, are you still called a young man?" Holly was not polite and went straight back.

The bearded man liked Hawley's sharpness, but he knew he couldn't keep the blonde young man's temperament.

"You can't do anything with such a frizz!" The bearded man slammed into the air.

Hawley was silent.

But soon, the bearded man's expression changed, revealing a hint of cunning:

"Actually, I sent you there for two main purposes."

"The first is to monitor what that commissioner does; The second is to see if you can find an opportunity to co-opt the local Knights, just like you did before. ”

The old fox, when he finally spoke his heart, said that this thing was so selfless.

Hawley looked suddenly enlightened.

He readily agreed to the bearded faction and began to ask about the details of the strike.

"What's the commissioner's name?"

"Billy O'Neal."

"Where is the specific location of the strike?"

"Stonesprings, Wyoming."

Holding the telegram from Hawley, Chen Jianqiu fell into a long contemplation.

"What's wrong?" Sean on the side saw that Chen Jianqiu didn't react for a long time and asked.

Chen Jianqiu threw the telegram to him.

"Holy, Shiquan Town!" The black man was taken aback by his reaction, "I've been digging coal in that place for months." ”

"Eh, Sean, I've always had a question, you've been wandering before, why have you been there for so long? Didn't anyone notice you stealing? Abiot asked, confused.

"Because no one discriminates against me there, everyone is very black." Sean pursed his lips.

God knows if the words of the black man are true or false.

The Mexicans and the blacks were still arguing, but Chen Jianqiu had already walked to the window.

When Chen Jianqiu turned around, the order he gave startled the two of them.

"Call all the members of the Long Xiang group, bring the latest weapons, and pack three carriages."

He turned his head and looked at Sean:

"Man, let's go back to Shiquan Town together."
