Spy War 1929

Chapter 228 They Are Bad Guys
Chen Ledao looked at the thin and small man standing in the front row. He saw very clearly just now that the person who shouted first was this guy, and he was always leading the rhythm behind him.

Chen Ledao took a deep look at this person.

Seeing Chen Ledao's eyes on him, the thin man grinned brightly at Chen Ledao, his two rows of big white teeth were very conspicuous.

Chen Ledao carefully searched the face of this thin and small man in his heart, but he didn't find any sense of familiarity. He was sure that he didn't know this person before.

After looking at it carefully, keeping his face in mind, Chen Ledao no longer cared about him.

The most urgent task is to settle the matter of these workers first.

After asking the police to put away all the guns, Chen Ledao did not let them leave.

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, and the identity of a policeman is not a talisman among the working class.

Although the situation in front of him seemed to be easy for him to control, Mr. Lu Xun said - safety first.

"Guys, if you believe me, let's talk."

Chen Ledao took two steps towards the workers and stood in front of the workers.

Maybe it was because he didn't wear a patrol uniform, maybe it was because of what he did just now, or maybe it was because the words of those fake workers just now had an effect.

In short, when the workers saw Chen Ledao standing up, they didn't speak in a panic.

Several people who were obviously the leaders looked at each other, hesitation flashed in their eyes, but they finally let go.

"Okay, I've heard of your name, Inspector Chen, and many people say that you are a good person, so let's hear what you have to say!" A strong man standing at the front said loudly.

Although Feng Jingyao provoked the workers to strike, these workers also have their own demands.

Otherwise, they wouldn't let Feng Jingyao arrange it lightly, and just do it according to Feng Jingyao's wish so obediently.

After all, Feng Jingyao is an old hooligan leader, he is a bird!

Of course, this can only be said quietly in my heart, happily.

Seeing that there was something to talk about, a relaxed smile appeared on the corner of Chen Ledao's mouth, as long as there was something to talk about.

Although this matter was arranged by Feng Jingyao, it was used as a means to deal with Fabre.

But Chen Ledao couldn't let these people make trouble, he had to control this matter to an appropriate degree.

In fact, Chen Ledao was also a little surprised, he had heard a lot of things between the workers and the police.

In the past, whenever workers went on strike and caused disturbances, the patrols would always rush to the front to confront the workers.

Those inspectors before Chen Ledao, in order to calm things down as soon as possible and please the French above, it is conceivable what methods they will use.

Violence is the most indispensable thing in Shanghai in this era.

Knowing that Chen Ledao is the inspector of the police station, these workers are still willing to listen to what Chen Ledao said, but they can't do it without trust.

Speaking of this, I have to mention Chen Ledao's reputation in Shanghai.

Chen Ledao was already a celebrity in Shanghai.

In terms of the degree of fame alone, Chen Ledao is not even inferior to Feng Jingyao and Fang Yanyun.

This year, Chen Ledao was "bundled" with these two people. If you know these two people, you will know Chen Ledao.

What is different from Feng Jingyao is that Feng Jingyao has a bad reputation in the world, and Chen Ledao alone has a good reputation.

The only thing that's not so good is that someone don't know when someone put a playboy name on Chen Ledao's head.

The reason is that Chen Ledao was photographed appearing with different women many times.

Of course, the people of Shanghai are just looking at it for entertainment.

If other men are like this, then he is naturally a big radish who plays with women's emotions, and he will be sprayed by many literati for thousands of years.

But Chen Ledao is handsome and young and promising, so he can't be said that way, he can only be said to be romantic and unrestrained, and his actions are straightforward.

Chen Ledao always sneered at this superficial behavior and disdained to oppose it.

Since taking office as the inspector of the police station, Chen Ledao has paid special attention to his reputation.

All kinds of good things spread to the outside world.

As for bad things, Inspector Chen never does bad things.

If so, someone else made a mistake.

Chen Ledao also did a lot of serious work in the patrol room.

Of course, the biggest thing is to reorganize the arresting room up and down, and tidy up the discipline of his management area.

People in other districts may not have deep feelings about whether Chen Ledao is good or bad, but Xiafei District, as long as it is not blind, can feel some obvious changes.

The policemen didn't dare to find trouble deliberately, and the gangsters on the street didn't dare to make trouble anymore. Even the people from Feng's Chamber of Commerce were very disciplined when doing things in Xiafei District, and they wouldn't mess around.

Such an obvious change came only after Chen Ledao took office as the inspector of the arresting house.

These workers stayed in the factory all day, so they didn't know it as well as those on the street, but they had heard it more or less.

Although these workers did not really believe Chen Ledao, the inspector who seemed to be a good man, they were willing to listen to what Chen Ledao said.

Chen Ledao is also familiar with the Three Kingdoms, knowing that there may be only one Cao Cao, but there are thousands of Cao thieves
Uh, off topic. Closer to home.

Chen Ledao looked around and found no place to stand taller, so he simply jumped onto the roof of the car.

He clapped his hands vigorously to attract the attention of all the workers.

The big iron gate of the power plant was wide open, and the workers standing outside the gate were only a part, and there were many workers crowded inside the gate.

As soon as Chen Ledao stood on the roof of the car, most people could see him immediately.

"Everyone, listen to me." Chen Ledao said loudly.

"I know there must be a reason for everyone to go on strike. But now that you are on strike, the power plant has stopped operating, and many places in our entire concession have become blind.

Just think about it, once the power plant shuts down, the hospital may run out of electricity, and the school may run out of electricity.

In case your relatives are waiting for treatment in the hospital now, in case your children are in school waiting for class.

Then your power outage, isn't it harming your own people! ! "

Chen Ledao stood on the top of the car and talked straight, but the workers were not so easy to fool this time.

"We don't care about those things. The family is almost out of control. People are starving to death. It doesn't matter whether they go to the hospital or not.

To get us back to work, send us the wages we are owed, and we demand a wage increase.

Everything is going up now, the price of rice has gone up, the price of meat has gone up, so why should our wages not go up. "

Someone was yelling loudly in the crowd. Judging by the level of anger in that voice, it didn't look like the previous "caretaker".

As soon as the voice came out, Yunyun immediately responded, and the crowd was excited.

Arrears of wages? ! !

Chen Ledao frowned upon hearing this.

No wonder these people were so easily coaxed by old man Feng's people to make trouble, maybe no one even made a fuss.

In the case of being owed wages, if Feng Jingyao sent someone to tell them to go on strike, with the support of the biggest hooligan in Shanghai, how could these people not make trouble!
Chen Ledao originally thought that this power plant had just suffered an indiscriminate disaster, but it just happened to be used by Feng Jingyao, so he felt a little sympathetic to him.

But now knowing that Jimmy Anderson owed wages to the workers, Chen Ledao's sympathy for him disappeared immediately.

Although we have French nationality, we are on the same side as you, but we are also familiar with the Three Kingdoms, but we take Xu Shu as an idol.

Seeing the workers shouting louder and louder, Chen Ledao hurriedly lowered his hands to suppress the voice.

"Everyone listen to me, I know about your demands.

One is to pay you the wages owed to you, but to ask for a wage increase, right!

OK, I understand your request.

Now, I need to go in and talk to your boss.See how this can be handled properly.

Therefore, I hope that everyone will not be crowded here, and everyone will take a break first.

Although it's colder today, it's warmer if you huddle together, but you guys don't feel too panic when you huddle together.

Wouldn't it be better for me to settle the matter with your boss and let everyone go home happily with their wages? ! "

"Inspector Chen, can you talk about anything? It's good to talk about anything with that person, but it's not easy to talk about money!" Suddenly, a questioning voice came from the crowd.

Chen Ledao laughed when he heard this, and he showed his big white teeth.

"You can doubt everything, but you can't doubt my ability to make money! He is an iron cock, and I will give him a handful of hair!"

The originally serious and tense atmosphere eased a lot after Chen Ledao and the workers talked to each other, although many people still had doubtful expressions on their faces.

But finally he was willing to let Chen Ledao give it a try.

These workers are not easy to fool. It is useless to blindly talk to them about empty principles. What they want is the real ocean.

Fortunately, Chen Ledao never thought of fooling them.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased a bit, Chen Ledao quickly took the opportunity to chat with these workers.

Fortunately, although these workers act a bit rough, they are still reasonable.

They may like to be greedy for petty gains, and they may also be a little cautious, but in general, compared with those businessmen, corrupt officials, and old hooligans in Shanghai, they are still simple and simple.

After Chen Ledao successfully fought with them, these people became more convinced that Chen Ledao was a good person.

Greeted by Chen Ledao, the workers made way for Chen Ledao to go in and talk to their dog boss.

Seeing this, Chen Ledao had a slight smile on his face.

Sure enough, he, Inspector Chen, still has a little bit of thin air in his three-acre land in the French Concession.

Tsundere face!
"I said, big guys, put back everything in your hands. There are so many people here, don't hurt people by mistake."

Chen Ledao said to the workers beside him with a smile while walking in the crowd.

Most of these people were carrying all kinds of weapons in their hands, some of which even made Chen Ledao twitch from the corner of his eyes.

There are so many people here, it is inevitable that there will be bumps and bumps. Now that they are not fighting against each other, if their own people start to fight with their own people, that would be bad.

After all, there will inevitably be some conflicts between workers, what if they take the opportunity to intensify.

What happened here today will definitely be in the newspapers, and it will be good for him if it is dealt with.But if something happened, he, the inspector at the scene, would definitely not be able to get out.

But the workers didn't move, and they didn't get their wages, so they wouldn't be stupid and just do what others said.

Seeing this, Chen Ledao had no choice but to go straight to a decent small building in the factory.

At the moment, there is a line of people stopping here, their clothes are obviously different from those of the workers, they should be more decent.

But at the moment, the clothes of these people are also a bit messy, and some of them even have obvious scars on their faces.

Still very fresh.

When the workers attacked here just now, these people were the ones who stopped them here, and they were not released until the police came.

Seeing Chen Ledao and Wang Liu, these people let them go without stopping them.

Chen Ledao walked upstairs, and soon saw the owner of the power plant, Jimmy Anderson.

As far as Anderson is concerned, this is also a recitation.

Anderson's business is not limited to this power plant. He also owns some industries such as trams and catering.

He just happened to come here today to take a look, but he didn't know if it was his bad luck or the workers were waiting for him on purpose.

As soon as he came, the workers immediately went on strike and made trouble, and blocked him.

At this moment, Anderson walked up and down anxiously in the office, his face full of unresolved sadness.

The workers are on strike again, which is not easy!

As for why the workers went on strike, Anderson felt that he should be able to guess to a certain extent, but it was because he guessed that he had a headache.

Those who work part-time, want nothing bad, but want money.

Can't everyone sit down calmly and talk about ideals and feelings peacefully! !
How vulgar it is to talk about money!
Just when Anderson was complaining in a hurry, Chen Ledao knocked on the door of the office, pushed them away and walked in.

"Are you??" Looking at the stranger in front of him, Anderson temporarily stopped in his tracks.

"Mr. Anderson, hello, I'm the inspector of Xiafei Road, you can call me Henry." Chen Ledao took off his hat and smiled at Anderson.

Hearing the pure French spoken by Chen Ledao, Anderson was overjoyed.

Chen Ledao's French made Anderson feel very kind.

"Henry, you are Henry! I know you, Henry!! Henry, it's great that you're finally here."

Anderson's face was full of excitement, several Henrys in a row made Chen Ledao stunned.

But Chen Ledao quickly smiled again.

"Mr Anderson, please calm down.

Yes, I am here, I am here to help you solve the current problem.

But you have to calm down first. "

There was a slight smile on the corner of Chen's face. His calm appearance made Anderson calm down a little bit.

Confidence is contagious, otherwise why do many people feel that they can do it after listening to the chicken soup in their hearts!
"Henry, what's going on outside now, what do those workers want to do!"

Anderson, who calmed down a little, hurriedly asked Chen Ledao.

"Mr. Anderson, they stopped temporarily. I said I wanted to talk to you, so they stopped temporarily." Chen Ledao emphasized his role in it without hesitation.

Anderson heaved a sigh of relief.

"Thank you so much, Henry."

Chen Ledao just smiled when he heard the words.

Please don't thank me with words.

"Mr. Anderson, I need to ask you first, are you in arrears with those workers' wages?"

Chen Ledao and Anderson sat down on the sofa.

Anderson, who had just calmed down for a while, couldn't calm down again when he heard Chen Ledao's words.

"What! I knew it, and they knew to ask me for money.

I just sent them their salary for the first half of last year last month, and now they want money again.

They are so greedy! !They are all workers without conscience! ! "

Anderson jumped up from the sofa, his face flushed.

His money didn't come from the strong wind or the waves, but he saved it bit by bit, and it was easy for him to save up the money!
Those workers actually want to ask themselves for money again!
Anderson was angry and anxious, and even seeing his blushing face, Chen Ledao felt that he might still feel a little bit wronged in his heart.

Chen Ledao straightened his face immediately, and said seriously.

"Mr. Anderson, you should know that arrears of wages to workers, whether in the concession or in the country, is not allowed."

In the country here, Chen Ledao is of course referring to France.

Now that the person on the other side is a Frenchman, Chen Ledao also assumed his French nationality.

"But now that the world is in an economic crisis, many domestic workers have lost their jobs. I even heard that the Americans have started to rely on bailouts to survive, and those bankers have jumped off the building.

And I only pay them wages, which is already very good, and they are even happier than those American guys. "

Anderson refused to admit his fault, but he still argued.

"But we are different, Mr. Anderson.

We French are born romantic and noble.We can't compare with those American guys.

Do you think arrears of wages are what we French people do?Don't you think it's a romantic thing?

If you think it's romantic, then I'm going to wonder if French blood runs in your veins. "

Chen Ledao's words made sense and made Anderson feel worse than eating a fly.

What's all this!

Why is it related to whether it is romantic or not, and whether it is French or not! !

Anderson felt something was wrong, but for a moment he didn't know how to refute it.

He has always been proud of his romantic French blood, how could he discredit France.

Seeing that he was silent, Chen Ledao continued.

"Mr. Anderson, do you really want to take care of those workers?

Have you forgotten the results of DuPont?Annoy the people outside, they won't be afraid of us.

DuPont's dismal end is something we should take for granted. "

".DuPont"

When DuPont was mentioned, Anderson immediately hesitated.

Dupont's death, he remembered it.

On the day he ran away, he was beaten to death in the street, and all his property was robbed, which was unacceptable to him.
