Blackstone Code Chapter 1455: Sometimes inequality is right!
Old John is a factory worker.
He's more worried about his job than anyone else's anger at what the Duncan family has done.
His factory, which involves the Duncan family, is currently closed.
This made Old John very worried that the shutdown factory would not pay him any salary, and this situation has been going on for two months.
Without income for two months, his savings can support his current life, but not for long.
The habit of the Commonwealths not saving is a problem, and secondly, the various expenses make it impossible for the Commonwealth to save much money.
Most single-person households are very good at making ends meet if they can save 50 yuan by the end of the month. .
Old John worries that if the factory doesn't reopen in time, he'll have to sell things to get through this tough time.
He went to the workers' union today and registered his information, hoping to find a new job.
But the workers' 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 those factories that have been closed are reopened, at most there will be only some temporary workers.
But even as a temporary worker, Old John said he was willing to do it, even if the money was a little less.
Having income is better than no income!
He did not 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 walking in did he realize that it was the original general manager of the factory who had been investigated for some reason.
The factory will be auctioned due to ownership issues.
This makes everyone very frightened. They don't know what the future will be like, and they don't know if the people who buy the factory will still use them. These make them very frightened!
People were talking loudly. Old John was listening all the time. He wasn't the kind of person who likes to speak very much, but he also had his own opinions.
At two or three o'clock in the afternoon, 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 a lawyer to contact and negotiate with the new factory owner for everyone."
"Please rest assured that we will ensure that the interests of every worker are not harmed in this transaction..."
The people from the workers' union and the news they brought didn't make Old John feel relieved, but instead felt heavier.
In the following period, he found that three factories in his city had been suspended due to a case involving the Duncan family, and they were waiting for auction.
He hated the Duncan family, and from time to time he worked as a temporary worker.
February, the weather in the Commonwealth has begun to warm. People are finally taking off their heavy coats, and new developments about the Duncan family case have also blown the haze from the Commonwealth sky.
Prior to this, many believed that the federal government might clear some charges for the Duncan family, but on February 9, the first trial of the case of a "core" member of the Duncan family ended.
He was charged with kidnapping, murder, and aggravated assault, and was sentenced to death.
Because he himself obeyed the sentence and did not file an appeal, the Federal Supreme Court and four life justices signed his name on the final death penalty execution consent form and agreed to the execution.
The whole process goes very fast. Logically speaking, the death penalty needs to be reviewed again, but there are some things that cannot be rigidly followed by dogmatism.
The review of the death penalty was passed quickly under such circumstances.
On February 15, major TV stations broadcasted the execution of the death penalty.
A numb-faced man in his thirties stood in the middle of a playground. Behind him was a large haystack. After a brief reading of his charges, three soldiers stood in front of him and raised their hands. Picked up the rifle in his hand.
The simultaneous sound silenced everyone.
Two bullets in tandem shattered his head, and another pierced his heart.
Actually, this kind of **** scene is nothing to the Commonwealth.
During the final days of World War I, federal war correspondents retrieved footage of many war scenes from around the world.
Those images are bloodier and more exciting.
But the excitement and reflection of war is far less than the excitement and reflection of a federal man who was shot.
People remained silent, looking at the corpse on the ground.
From the lower jaw as the dividing line, the upper part has disappeared, and the blood is flowing everywhere. Even if it is separated by a long distance, even across the TV, people can already feel a kind of incomprehensible thing.
Old John is also watching TV, the whole family is watching, his wife covers the child's eyes with her hands, but the child is watching TV secretly from other places.
The color of the TV is not so realistic, which somewhat alleviates some of the blood and horror.
Soon, the broadcast is over, and this is considered by many to be the most important page in federal judicial history!
No one!
No one can escape the punishment of the law after breaking the law, even if he/she/it is a celebrity, a celebrity politician, or whoever it is!
As long as a crime is committed, there is no escape from the law, and that is how people feel.
At this time, no matter how much money or social status you used to have, at this moment, those things have lost their luster and value.
Someone digs out a sentence Lynch said before——
Everyone is equal before the law!
Yes, they saw it, and maybe this is what the law really looks like!
Actually, the treatment of members of the Duncan family shocked the world.
The world is always moving forward, and feudal rule will end one day. When the rule of man ends, what does the rule of law look like and whether it is beneficial to this country? Some people always want to know more.
And this is the best chance!
In mid-to-late February, around the nineteenth, 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 didn't know were there, as well as representatives and lawyers from the workers' union, as well as staff from the city hall.
The factory where Old John is located is divided into several workshops, raw material workshop, production workshop, assembly workshop...
The supervisors of these workshops gathered together, and they were discussing something in a low voice.
About twenty minutes later, the production workshop supervisor stood up with a microphone in his hand.
"Dear workers and colleagues, I believe that I don't need to repeat the description of what happened during this time. You all know it well."
"The news we got before was that the factory was going to be auctioned off to those capitalists, and then we don't know what happened."
"But now, with some adjustments to the above policy, we have some new possibilities!"
"One way, as we know before, the factory is auctioned off, and then our placement is handed over to the new owner..."
Someone interrupted him, "Hurry up and talk about the new changes, we don't want to hear this nonsense!"
The supervisor of the production workshop glanced at the person who was speaking.
“Another way, they allow us to finance our own factories and then we are responsible for ourselves!”
When he said these words, he was a little excited.
No doubt their management prefers 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 City Hall approached the management of the city's businesses that had been suspended due to the Duncan case and talked to them. Everyone felt that this was a good choice, so there was a general voting meeting like today.
As his voice fell, there was a buzz in the whole factory, people were expressing their opinions, and some people were talking to those around them about what to do about it.
Indeed, emotionally, everyone was interested in the proposal, at least they wouldn't be fired, would they?
Old John thinks it's actually pretty good.
As the discussion gradually dissipates, it also means that everyone has made a decision.
"This time I invite everyone to come, just to tell you first, if we want to use method two, then according to the policies given to us by the city hall and the state government, we will need to raise about..."
He said a number that kept everyone silent because it was too big.
Fortunately, this money is 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.
Actually, this amount of money is beyond what Old John can afford. He can't come up with so much cash now, but that doesn't stop him from continuing to listen.
There was a little controversy when the supervisor of the production workshop then announced that everyone had to pay 10,000 yuan.
"Are you guys also putting together 10,000 bucks~IndoMTL.com~ Someone asked those management.
The supervisor of the production workshop didn't realize anything yet, nodded and said yes, "Yes, everyone is the same, give 10,000 yuan."
"I know you think this amount of money is a bit too much. In fact, it also includes the money for our subsequent construction and purchase of raw materials. As long as the money is collected, we can start construction immediately..."
But the person who asked the question just now interrupted him again.
"Since all are given 10,000 yuan, then who will manage the factory, who will be the manager, who will be the supervisor, and who will be the team leader?"
One sentence, for a moment, the place was quiet again.
Old John was also stunned for a moment, then felt that the thorn was right.
Since everyone pays 10,000 yuan, why do you do the management while we do manual work in the workshop?
This is obviously unfair!
There is no room for injustice in this society!
