Blackstone Code

Chapter 1455: Sometimes inequality is just right!

Old John was a factory worker.

He was more worried about his job than other people's anger at what the Duncan family had done.

The factory he works in has been shut down because it involves the Duncan family.

This made Old John very worried. The closed factory would not pay him any salary, and this situation has lasted for two months.

With no income for two months, his savings can still maintain his current life, but not for long.

The fact that federal people do not have the habit of saving is a problem. Secondly, various expenses make it impossible for federal people to save much money.

Most single-person working families can save 50 yuan at the end of the month, and they are already very good at calculating their lives.

John Sr. worried that if the factory could not reopen in time, he would have to sell things to get through this difficult time.

He went to the workers union today and registered his information, hoping to find a job again.

But people from the labor union told him that too many people have registered in the past two months, and the demand for workers has been saturated in a short period of time. Unless the closed factories reopen, at most only some temporary workers can be employed. .

But even if it was a temporary job, Old John expressed that he was willing to do it, even if the money was less.

Having an income is better than having no income!

He didn't go home immediately after leaving the workers' union, but returned to the place where he worked before. Before he got close, he saw a large group of people gathered at the gate of the factory.

He walked over quickly, and only after he walked in did he realize that it was the original general manager of the factory who had been investigated for some reason.

And this factory will be auctioned because of ownership issues.

This made everyone very frightened. They didn't know what the future would look like, and they didn't know whether the people who bought the factory would use them. These made them very scared!

People were discussing loudly, and Old John was listening all the time. He was not the kind of person who liked to speak too much, but he also had his own opinions.

At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, people from the workers' union came.

"...We already know the situation here and are in contact with the state government. If the factory is really going to be auctioned, we will arrange lawyers to contact and negotiate with the new factory owner for everyone."

"Please rest assured that we will properly ensure that the interests of every worker will not be harmed in this transaction..."

The people from the labor union and the news they brought did not make Old John feel relaxed, but felt more and more heavy.

In the following period of time, he found that three factories in the city where he was located had suspended operations due to involvement in cases related to the Duncan family, and were awaiting auction.

While he hated the Duncan family, he did temporary work from time to time.

In February, the weather in the Commonwealth has begun to warm up. People finally took off their heavy coats, and new developments about the case of the Duncan family also dissipated the haze from the sky over the Commonwealth.

Prior to this, many people thought that the federal government might acquit some charges for members of the Duncan family, but on February 9, the first trial of a "core" member of the Duncan family ended.

He was suspected of kidnapping, murder, serious injury and other crimes and was sentenced to death.

Since he himself obeyed the judgment and did not file an appeal, the Federal Supreme Court and four lifetime justices signed his name on the final execution consent form and agreed to execute it.

The whole process went very quickly. It is reasonable to say that the death penalty needs to be reviewed again, but sometimes there are some things that cannot be rigidly followed by dogmatism.

Under such circumstances, the review of the death penalty passed quickly.

On February 15th, major TV stations rebroadcasted the execution of the death penalty.

A man in his thirties with a numb face stood in the middle of a playground, behind him was a large haystack, after a brief reading of his crimes, finally three soldiers stood in front of him and raised their hands rifle.

The sound that sounded at the same time silenced everyone.

Two bullets in tandem shattered his head, and another bullet pierced his heart.

In fact, this kind of **** scene is nothing to the federal people.

During the last period of the First World War, the federal war correspondents brought back a lot of videos taken at the scene of the war from all over the world.

Those pictures are more **** and more exciting.

But the stimulation and reflection brought about by the war are far less than the stimulation and reflection brought about by a federal man being shot.

People remained silent, looking at the corpse on the ground.

From the lower jaw as the dividing line, the upper part disappeared, and blood flowed everywhere. Even through a long distance, and even through the TV, people could already feel something indescribable.

Old John was also watching TV, and the whole family was watching. His wife covered the child's eyes with her hands, but the child was secretly watching TV from other places.

The color of the TV is not so real, which somewhat alleviates some of the feeling of blood and horror.

Soon, the broadcast ended, and this was considered by many to be the most important page in the history of federal justice!

nobody!

No one can escape the punishment of the law after breaking the law, even if he/she/it is a celebrity, a star politician, or whoever it is!

As long as you commit a crime, you cannot escape the punishment of the law, this is how people feel.

At this moment, no matter how much money you had before or how high your social status was, at this moment, those things have lost their brilliance and value.

Someone dug out a sentence that Lynch said before——

Everyone is equal before the law!

Yes, they saw it, perhaps this is the truest appearance of the law!

In fact, the treatment of members of the Duncan family also shocked the whole world.

The world is always moving forward, and feudal rule will end one day. After the end of the rule of man, there are always some people who want to know more about what the rule of law is like and whether it is beneficial to the country.

And this is the best opportunity!

In mid-to-late February, around the 19th, Old John suddenly received a call from the factory—there was a public phone booth not far from his house.

Then he hurried to the factory.

When he first entered the factory, he found that almost all the workers he knew and did not know were there, as well as representatives of the workers' union and lawyers, as well as the staff of the city hall.

Old John's factory is divided into several workshops, raw material workshop, production workshop, assembly workshop...

The supervisors of these workshops gathered together, and they discussed something in a low voice.

About twenty minutes later, the supervisor of the production workshop stood up, still holding the microphone in his hand.

"Dear workers and colleagues, I believe that I don't need to repeat the description of what happened during this period. You are very clear."

"The news we got before is that the factory will be auctioned and sold to those capitalists, and then we don't know what will happen."

"But now, the above policies have been adjusted, and we have some new possibilities!"

"Method one, as we know before, the factory is auctioned off, and then our resettlement issue is handed over to the new boss..."

Someone interrupted him, "Hurry up and talk about the new changes, we don't want to hear such nonsense!"

The supervisor of the production workshop glanced at the speaker, he was a thorn, he didn't make a sound, just smiled.

"Another way, they allow us to raise our own funds to buy our factory, and then we are responsible for ourselves!"

When he said these words, his emotions were slightly agitated.

There is no doubt that their management is more inclined to the latter.

Wouldn't it be better if you could buy your own factory with your own money and be your own boss?

The people at the city hall talked to the management of the enterprises in the city that had suspended operations due to the Duncan case. Everyone thought this was a good choice, so there was a plenary voting meeting like today.

As his voice fell, the entire factory buzzed, causing a lot of voices, people were expressing their views, and some people were talking to those around them about how to do this.

Indeed, emotionally, everyone is very interested in this proposal, at least they will not be dismissed, will they?

Old John also thinks this is actually pretty good.

As the voice of discussion gradually dissipated, it also means that everyone has made a decision.

"I invite everyone here this time, just to tell you first, if we want to use the second method, then according to the policies given to us by the city hall and the state government, we will have to raise approximately..."

He said a number, which still kept everyone silent because it was too big.

Fortunately, the money was not paid by one person, but by everyone.

On average, a person only needs to pay about 7,500 to 10,000 yuan, which is almost the same.

In fact, this amount of money was beyond what Old John could afford. He couldn't come up with so much cash now, but this didn't stop him from continuing to listen.

When the supervisor of the production workshop then announced that everyone needs to pay 10,000 yuan, there were some small arguments.

"Did you also collect 10,000 yuan?" Someone asked those management ~lightnovelpub.net~ the supervisors of the production workshop hadn't realized what, nodded and said yes, "Yes, everyone is the same. Ten thousand yuan."

"I know you guys think this is a lot of money. In fact, it also includes the money for our subsequent purchase of raw materials. As long as the money is collected, we can start working right away..."

But the person who asked the question just now interrupted him again.

"Since they are all given 10,000 yuan, who will manage the factory, who will be the manager, who will be the supervisor, and who will be the team leader?"

In a word, it made the place quiet again in an instant.

Old John was also taken aback for a moment, and then felt that the thorn was right.

Since everyone is giving 10,000 yuan, why do you do the management, but we have to do manual work in the workshop?

This is obviously very unfair!

There is no room for injustice in this society!
