Expedition to Europe

Puchana was once a hired worker of Xu Zhongqing's family, similar to the tenants in the Republic of China, but not exactly the same. He only came to the Xu family to help during the busy farming season. He did not have much relationship with the Xu family on weekdays, and was more of a short-term worker.

As Xu Zhongqing was the eldest son of the Xu family, Puchana certainly knew him. Xu Zhongqing was once unattainable to Puchana, so Puchana's courtesy to Xu Zhongqing was understandable.

Waving Puchana over, Xu Zhongqing put his arm around Puchana's shoulders and walked into the alley next to him, whispered in Puchana's ear, and then stuffed a small bag into Puchana's hand.

After listening to Xu Zhongqing's words, Puchana's face changed several times, and finally held the small bag handed over by Xu Zhongqing and nodded heavily.

The next day, Fuxiang Teak Processing Factory.

This was originally the property of the Xu family, but because the Xu family moved away from Chiang Mai, it was sold at a discount by Xu Ziting, the head of the Xu family, to a local wealthy businessman in Siam.

The so-called "discount" is a nice way of saying it. Due to some objective reasons, the transfer price is less than one-third of the actual value. The Xu family certainly doesn't want to sell it, but the situation is stronger than people, and Xu Ziting can't do anything about some things.

After the local rich businessman bought the wood factory, he didn't want to operate it, but to resell it. The target of the resale was the British. The price, of course, was not much different from the actual value. At least compared with the transfer price of the Xu family, it was still a big profit.

In the morning, two British people came to the wood factory under the protection of several local Siamese people.

Teak is a precious wood that can be used to make high-end furniture, floors, or for interior decoration. Teak is widely distributed in Siam and Myanmar. The quality of Myanmar teak is particularly good. In the 21st century, it was once called Myanmar's "national treasure".

Fuxiang Teak Processing Factory is well-known in Chiang Mai. This processing factory not only has the machines used to process wood, but also has a whole mountain of teak forests. It is precisely because of this convenient condition that the wooden products of Fuxiang Teak Processing Factory are sold well in Chiang Mai and even well-known in Myanmar.

After the Xu family moved out of Chiang Mai, the entire processing factory was actually closed. The workers did not know when the processing factory would reopen. They gathered at the door of the processing factory every day waiting for the latest news. So when the two British people arrived, hundreds of workers gathered at the door of the factory, intentionally or unintentionally blocking the door of the processing factory, wanting to get the latest news as soon as possible.

It must be said that the Siamese are indeed a bit unkempt. Perhaps because of the hot weather, these Siamese people look a little naked, and coupled with poor hygiene, they look like homeless people, at least in the eyes of the two British people.

When the British carriage arrived at the factory gate, the workers did not move aside. They wanted to see what the new boss was like and whether he would treat them as well as the old boss.

If Xu Ziting came, he might have comforted them with gentle words and made a few promises, which might have stabilized the situation.

But the two British obviously did not have the patience, or they did not think these people were worth wasting their energy, so the Siamese who followed the carriage were particularly irritable.

"You pigs, get out of the way, don't block my way--" Four or five Siamese who looked like bodyguards came up with short sticks in their hands, cursing and beating, trying to disperse these people.

"Hey, be respectful, we are workers in this factory--" Someone shouted loudly, trying to prove that he was not an outsider.

Although the Xu family is a wealthy family, they still maintain the kindness and humility of the Chinese in a foreign country. Xu Ziting has always been tolerant and generous to the workers in the factory. Therefore, the workers in the factory are not afraid of the boss. On the contrary, in many cases, these Siamese are very good at using their advantages as local bosses to fight for some benefits that they should or should not get.

"Get out of here - if you don't behave yourself, you are nothing." The short stick in the bodyguard's hand flew up and down without any pause.

Whether in India, Myanmar, Malaya, or the whole world, the British have always played the role of conquerors, which makes the British particularly confident, and their bodyguards are also superior, so when facing the indigenous people, the British have never been "weak", or in other words, the British have never been "weak" like the Chinese.

Facing the bodyguards' short sticks, some workers begged, some wailed, and more voices argued: "You can't do this, we have worked here for a long time, and here we have also worked hard-"

Facing the workers' pleas, the bodyguards did not hesitate at all, the short sticks they pulled down were still powerful, and the words in their mouths were still unbearable: "Fuck you for a long time, it has nothing to do with me-"

Well, Siam does not have the concept of "hair", which is probably what it means.

For these bodyguards, this beating should be regarded as a kind of power, but for these workers, this feeling is not very good.

In fact, when the bodyguards just started swinging the short sticks, the workers had already dispersed. Those bodyguards did not restrain because of the workers' dodging. They chased and beat the workers wantonly, and did not even let go of those who had fallen to the ground.

Although the workers were numerous and powerful, they had no consciousness of resistance, and soon some of them saw blood.

Not everyone was afraid. A dozen young and strong Siamese were particularly indignant. They clenched their fists as they looked at the bodyguards who were chasing the workers. The anger in their eyes could make people feel burning.

"Don't go too far!" Someone in the crowd shouted.

"We have always been so excessive!" The bodyguards responded very straightforwardly. Two bodyguards even surrounded a worker who had fallen to the ground and beat him. The worker rolled on the ground to avoid it. His begging and screaming were particularly miserable, but it did not stop the two bodyguards. Instead, they were beaten more intensively and laughed at.

"Fuck them!" Someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, and then three or four people rushed over.

The original text is in Liu # 9 @book/bar!

At this time, even if only one person rushed up, it could mobilize everyone's hatred of the enemy.

"This guy doesn't treat people as human beings at all, beat them up!" There were also people fanning the flames.

"Beat them!" More people rushed forward.

Five or six bodyguards might be arrogant in front of a group of weak people, but facing a group of angry people, it was really useless.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the five or six bodyguards were drowned by the angry crowd.

The British in the carriage finally couldn't sit still, and one of them pulled out the pistol he carried with him.

Bang!

A sharp gunshot rang out, and it was not the worker who fell down, but the British who had just taken out the pistol.

The situation finally got out of control.
