Mixed in the last days as a salted fish

After old Charlie and others were escorted away, the noisy headquarters of the miners' union suddenly became quiet.

A young policeman looked at the "leftovers" on the table in front of him, couldn't help swallowing, then pointed to the table and asked Liu Jun:

"Leader, how to deal with these meals?"

"Go to Reporter Wang and ask him to come quickly and take some photos as evidence, and then pack up the leftovers. After the operation is over, I will serve you as supper." Liu Jun waved his hand.

Life is hard for big guys these days, it's not the time to be particular about it, and there are several meat dishes among these leftovers, throwing them away will be punished by God.

"Good leader, I'll go find Reporter Wang right away." The little policeman immediately beamed with joy.

"Also, you should go and inform your director by the way, let the big guy move quickly, we have to go to the mining area later, time is very tight."

Liu Jun explained something casually.

"Yes." The little policeman immediately saluted.

……

One night passed, and another day.

Although Sydney looks calm on the surface, as if everything is going on as usual, there is an undercurrent surging in an invisible corner, as if a storm is about to come.

Early in the morning, Zhang Hao got a report on the results of the arrest operation last night from Liu Jun.

While flipping through the report, he praised:

"Chairman Liu, you worked hard last night."

"It's okay to work hard. Fortunately, you did not disappoint the trust of the consul. The arrest operation last night was very successful, and none of the targets escaped."

"Well, was there any bloodshed?"

Liu Jun nodded helplessly: "Bloody conflict is unavoidable, but overall it went smoothly, except for a few people who reacted violently, most of them cooperated."

"Hey, why have so many people been arrested? I remember that the number of people arrested seems to be only more than 200 people? You have almost doubled the number of people, what is going on?"

Zhang Hao suddenly discovered something unusual.

Liu Jun hurriedly explained: "Consul, these extra people are ordinary miners in the mining area. They tried their best to obstruct our arrest. As a last resort, we had to arrest them together."

"Is the reaction in the mining area very intense?"

Zhang Hao frowned.

"This one……"

"Don't hide it, I want to know the real situation."

Liu Jun smiled wryly, and could only truthfully report:
"Consul, due to the previous strikes, the income level of the miners has indeed increased, so in all mining areas, the miners' union is very popular.

If we hadn't launched a surprise attack last night, we might not have been able to bring anyone out, but even so, it still caused a lot of commotion. It is estimated that the next period of time may not be safe. "

Zhang Hao had already had a premonition about this, so he was not too surprised. He then asked: "How did the Southeast Asians react? Did they join in the booing?"

Among the population composition of Australia, more than two-thirds are new immigrants, or they should be called refugees, and these new immigrants are mainly Southeast Asians.

In addition, there are tens of millions of native immigrants, mainly concentrated in the garrison bases and major enterprises, and belong to the absolute middle class.

Liu Jun shook his head: "No, most of them are still on the sidelines. Although these people are also the beneficiaries, they are usually discriminated against by Australians, and they don't want to lose their jobs or be repatriated, so they are generally more cautious. "

"Phew, that's good, what's the reaction of our native immigrants?" Zhang Hao couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

Liu Jun suddenly looked embarrassed: "Consul, I'm afraid I will disappoint you."

"How to say?" Zhang Hao asked quickly.

"Well, I won't hide it from you. In fact, the native immigrants are also considered partners of the miners' union. It can be said that they are so good that they can wear a pair of pants. It's just that to avoid suspicion, they seldom serve in the union."

"It's outrageous, how dare you eat inside and outside? Is there any organizational discipline?"

In a rage, Zhang Hao asked a rather idiotic question without going through his brain.

Liu Jun spread his hands: "In addition to benefits, there are still benefits. After all, everyone wants to earn more wages."

"Since you know this, your state government has never thought about solving the problem?" Zhang Haoxing accused.

Liu Jun's face was full of bitterness, and he went all out:
"Consul, don't you know that the local energy giants like to form groups, and treat us all kinds of obedience and injustice, what do you want us to do?"

After nearly ten years of development, many state-owned enterprises have long since become independent small societies, not to mention the localities, and sometimes even the central government has nothing to do with them.

Zhang Hao frowned, and finally realized the seriousness of the matter: "This time to arrest the Australians, do you think those guys will take the opportunity to play tricks?"

"I don't think it's possible to make a big move, but maybe a small move. It must be indispensable."

Liu Jun thought for a while and replied.

"Then help me think about it, what tricks do they usually have?" Zhang Hao asked humbly.

"In my opinion, they should start from two aspects. One is to incite the miners to protest, forcing us to deal with it lightly, to make big things small and small things small;
On the other hand, they will try their best to keep the miners' union as much as possible. Without the Australians taking the lead in charging, it will not be so easy to reap the benefits. "

Liu Junxiang tried to analyze it.

Zhang Hao nodded, and then changed the topic: "It's okay to let the Australians go, but the miners' union must be banned anyway, otherwise there will be endless troubles. Australia is not a place outside the law, and they will not be tolerated."

"Consul, I very much agree with what you said. Although the miners' union has not caused much damage so far, it is always a ticking time bomb."

Liu Jun quickly expressed his opinion.

This is definitely not a lie. Near Sydney is the famous Sydney Coalfield, one of the three major coal bases in Australia, with hundreds of thousands of miners in the mining area.

Once mismanaged, it will cause serious consequences.

In a sense, the city of Sydney is more like a logistics base for a mining area. It is controlled by others everywhere, and it is impossible to manage it like a normal city.

In order to get out of such an unfavorable situation.

A few years ago, it was proposed to move the capital to Brisbane, which is Australia's third largest city and is closer to the equator and warmer.

Unfortunately, the plan was eventually shelved because of too much opposition from various quarters.

Zhang Hao seems to have made up his mind: "No matter what price we pay this time, we must pull out this cancer and destroy the arrogance of some people."

"Consul, now people have been arrested. The only ones who are out of control are those Australians. They already have a strong xenophobic sentiment. And this time the arrest operation may become the fuse and explode completely. , I think we should take precautions."

Liu Jun reminded softly.

Zhang Hao looked puzzled: "Do they have the guts? After all, immigrants account for the majority, so aren't they afraid of shooting themselves in the foot?"

"I think they will target us and incite other people to fight against the central government. Although the probability of this is very small, we have to guard against it."

Liu Jun said worriedly.

What he is most worried about now is the expansion of the situation.

Zhang Hao was somewhat persuaded: "Don't worry, the next few days are the key. I will arrange troops to directly station in the major mining areas to prevent them from linking up with each other and even gathering in the urban area."

"Great, but there are many family members in the urban area, who also need attention and cannot be taken lightly."

"Well, you go and arrange it! I'll let people from the military cooperate with you." Zhang Hao ordered.

Liu Jun felt relieved, and before leaving, he casually said another thing: "Consul, old Charlie, the chairman of the miners' union, wants to chat with you face to face."

"Tell him that I don't have time now, let him wait a few days." Zhang Hao shook his head without hesitation.

It's over, it's useless to talk about it.

Besides, for old foxes like old Charlie, it's better to lock them up for a few days first, so that they can fight hard.

"I see." Liu Jun nodded.

Zhang Hao waved his hand: "Okay, I've been tired all night, you should go back and rest first!"

"Consul, don't work too hard."

After Liu Jun finished speaking, he turned and left the office.

……

For the next two days, the urban area of ​​Sydney was peaceful and peaceful. People lived and worked normally, as if the previous strike never happened.

Except for Sydney, the situation is similar in other cities, which makes people feel relieved.

Just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, outside of Sydney, a larger-scale strike wave that spread across the entire Australian continent suddenly appeared on the streets.

When Zhang Hao received the news, he was stunned. He didn't expect things to develop to such an extent, and he underestimated the unity of the Australian people.

Whether you are aboriginal or new immigrant.

"Chairman Liu, what did you do? This time I didn't receive the news in advance. I am really disappointed."

"Consul, this is my fault. I was too careless. I kept focusing on Sydney and neglected other cities." Liu Jun quickly admitted his mistake.

Seriously speaking, I really can't blame him for this.

After all, the Consul is in Sydney, and he must give priority to ensuring the safety of Sydney. This is a political task that must be completed, and there is no room for discussion.

"Okay! I'm also at fault for this matter." Zhang Hao waved his hand and continued: "Now, our most important task is how to deal with this situation. If we knew this, we should have arrested them in the whole district and caught them all. Give them any chance to stand up."

"Consul, I don't blame you for this matter. I have been in Australia for almost ten years, and I don't know that the union is so united and its mobilization ability is not bad. It is simply appalling."

Liu Jun looked scared.

"This just shows that they have premeditated. The only thing I am worried about now is whether the senior management of our state-owned enterprises has been involved?" Zhang Hao was very worried.

If this matter gets too far, he will most likely take the blame and resign, which would be too shameful.

Liu Jun hurriedly replied: "I think you are overthinking. If this matter becomes a big issue, it will not be good for them. After all, many of them want to do everything possible to transfer back to the mainland, and it is impossible to follow the mess."

"I hope so!" Zhang Hao was noncommittal.

"Consul, what should we do next? This matter cannot be delayed and must be dealt with as soon as possible."

Zhang Hao slapped the table hard: "This wind cannot last, it must be suppressed."

"But..." Liu Jun couldn't help persuading.

"You don't need to say too much." Zhang Hao waved his hand, "You have only one task now, and that is to urge the court to proceed with the trial. In three days at the latest, I want to hear the verdict from old Charlie and others."

"Will this add fuel to the fire?"

Liu Jun's eyes widened.

"Chairman Liu, we have no way out."

Zhang Hao said earnestly.

"That……"

"Okay, when the verdict comes out, I will immediately announce that the Australian region has entered a wartime state, and all mass gatherings are strictly prohibited. At the same time, during these three days, I will try to send more troops from surrounding areas to support. I can't turn it over." Zhang Hao said firmly.

Liu Jun didn't want to see the worst, and wanted to try harder: "Consul, why don't you let me come forward and talk to those members of the branch? I'm sure I can convince them, and even if I can't, I can delay it for a while. "

"What are you talking about? The miners' union must be banned. This matter is not negotiable, and you also said that this matter cannot be delayed and must be resolved quickly." Zhang Hao insisted.

"Consul, in fact, we can change our thinking. Don't the government also have trade unions? Why don't they all join in? Wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?"

"Hmph, you are deceiving yourself."

Zhang Hao said bluntly.

"Consul, listen to me, let's pass this one first, as for the next thing, let's take a long time to discuss it slowly, there is no need to rush for a while."

Liu Jun persuaded patiently.

Zhang Hao was unmoved: "Chairman Liu, you don't need to persuade me anymore, I have made up my mind and will not change."

There are some words that he is not convenient to say.

He suspected that there was a shadow of Fan Zhenxiang in this general strike. The other party's purpose was self-evident, and he wanted to use this incident to damage his prestige.

If you can get yourself off the stage, that's even better.

No wonder before, the other party stood by him unreservedly. It turned out that he dug a huge hole for him. All he can do now is to attack directly.

After all, in the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is a paper tiger, and he does not believe that Australians will ruin their lives for the sake of the so-called trade unions.

Liu Jun saw that he couldn't persuade the consul, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and take on this difficult task.

Zhang Hao finally urged: "Chairman Liu, use more snacks on your side, and try to make old Charlie and others take the initiative to plead guilty."

"This... this may be difficult..."

Liu Jun said bitterly.

"You tell them for me." Zhang Hao leaned in front of the other party and said softly: "After everything is over, I will grant amnesty to all of them as the consul. This is their last chance."

Liu Jun's eyes lit up: "If that's the case, maybe it's really possible. After all, old Charlie and the others are family members, and it's impossible to go all the way to the dark."

"My patience is limited, I hope they can understand current affairs." Zhang Hao rubbed his temples.
