Blackstone Code Chapter 1546: Spread
"At least... 10,000 frais!"
The workers' eyes are all red, maybe it hurts?
His palm was wrapped with a thick layer of bandage, but if you look closely, there is a faint trace of dark red blood on the top.
He said it was an astonishing figure. Even if the exchange rate of fra in the international foreign exchange market has fallen a bit compared to before, it is still the mainstream currency.
10,000 fra, which is probably worth a little more than 14,000 federal sol. This money is already a huge sum of money for ordinary people.
At least for the Commonwealth, they have to work for thirty years to make so much money and have to eat and drink.
Adding the fees and money that the workers had asked for, this is almost 20,000 federal sols!
The factory owner shook his head directly, "Impossible, I have already compensated you enough."
"Listen, according to the law and regulations, I only need to give you 2,500 yuan. The more is based on humanitarianism. You should not be so greedy for more!"
"If you don't get it, I won't give it to you. If you do this again, I will call the police!"
The economy of Amelia is less developed than that of Gavra Island, so the consumption standard here is very low, and the money is more valuable.
It's like Nagalil.
You're looking for a twenty-year-old young Nagalil girl in the Commonwealth, and they'll ask you for at least one hundred dollars.
But if you can find one in Nagalil with a little bit of flavor, it might only cost you five bucks.
The reason is the same. On the island of Gavra, the worker's demands may not be many.
But this is Amelia, and the factory owner couldn't have given him that much!
This amount of money is equal to his current pure profit for a month or two!
People are always impulsive and irritable when it comes to money.
The injured worker jumped up and scuffled with the factory owner, and soon the factory security came over and pulled the worker.
The face of the factory owner was scratched by him, and he stepped forward angrily and punched the guy!
The worker was restrained by security and had to punch himself in the face, but then he started shouting loudly—
The factory owner had him thrown out of the factory. When he got off work at night, the factory owner found that the workers looked at him differently than usual!
He didn't care too much, but when he came to the factory the next day, he found a lot of people gathered outside the factory.
He was wondering why these workers didn't enter the factory and were about to gather at the gate when people found him too!
These workers angrily surrounded the car, and then cursed loudly at the factory owner sitting in the cab, some of whom were still banging the car's casing!
This frightened him, he honked his horn frantically, which also attracted some people's attention, and shortly afterward, the police came.
They separated the group and took both groups to the police station. The factory owner then learned from the police station that the worker who lost a pinky finger had died after returning home last night.
Now people lie in the management office of the cemetery and can be buried at any time.
His family said that after returning home, he kept saying that his head hurts, which may be the main cause of the factory. At about 9 o'clock in the evening, he suddenly fell down and couldn't get up again!
In this period, people did not recognize the behavior of finding the cause of death through autopsy. People always believed that only by maintaining the integrity of the body can go to heaven!
And the man has lost a finger. If he doesn't even leave a complete body, he can only go to hell!
Families did not agree to the autopsy, and the hospital did not remind them. Anyway, the people who died were locals, so be it!
But now, they're making a fuss.
The factory owner has repeatedly argued that these things have nothing to do with him, but who knows?
The police officer at the police station hinted to him privately that he should give him more money and the matter would be settled. After all, everyone died.
But at this time, a little money is not just a little.
In the afternoon, the factory owner was released on bail and left the police station. He entrusted a lawyer to talk to the family of the deceased.
Because that worker didn't die by accident or natural causes, he was beaten to death!
Those people insist on this, but obviously the factory owner can't give that much.
In the case of disagreement, things began to ferment.
Rumours of "the Gafra people killed local workers and refused to compensate" began to spread rapidly. The local mayor also asked about this matter, and later learned that the police department had intervened, so he didn't ask any more questions.
But by the next day, the rumors had become ridiculous and terrifying content like "The Gevra people shielded each other, and the murderer not only refused compensation, but was also acquitted"!
There is such a thing as rumors... In fact, any society in any era has suitable soil.
Cooking
Some people who are more likely to believe these rumors first believe that they are only a small group, but they will become a new source of diffusion, and then gradually erode the entire society!
With some people pushing things forward, on the third day of the incident, a large-scale conflict finally broke out!
There were physical clashes between some angry locals and police officers sent to protect the factory owner, as well as security guards in the factory owner's own factory.
The workers, the watchers, were beaten to the core, and then they started fighting back.
When a shot goes off, everything changes!
Anything that escalates to mass means that things are starting to get serious and out of control.
If the "group" itself were able to affect more people, and others were injured or even killed, then it would turn into a big mess!
In addition, there are many historical relationships between the two sides of the conflict...
On the morning of the fourth day of the incident, the country that originally belonged to the Ammelia region issued a stern condemnation.
Condemned the cruel atrocities of the current President of Anmelia Province and the Gevra government, saying that they treated the non-Gevra people in the concession as slaves and animals as cruel as animals, and even indulged the homicide law to continue to do it Under the murder of the crime!
The country's spokesman said that if the Gavra government does not give the deceased an appropriate account, if they cannot give everyone an account, then they will tear up the contract and retake or re-liberate the Ameria region from Gavra. !
The whole international community was in an uproar, and then the Guevra cabinet also said that it would conduct a serious investigation and demanded that the country abide by the contract signed by the two countries before.
If the other party maliciously takes the opportunity to tear up the contract, then Gefra will use methods including but not limited to national diplomacy, unilateral military operations, etc. to safeguard his legitimate rights and interests!
Both sides expressed their willingness to engage actively, but the situation on the ground became increasingly tense.
Some members of the public and self-proclaimed members of the Wings of Freedom Movement in Amelia began frequent attacks, beating the local Gefra people.
Blood clashes also occurred during the period, and the Governor's Palace also began to intervene actively.
But the effect is not very good, and there is an intensifying trend.
"If we send troops to suppress it now, I'm afraid that there won't be a chance for us to do so..."
His Excellency the Governor is on the phone with the Prime Minister. He is very annoyed. It was originally just a small matter. No one thought that it would evolve to such a point in such a short period of time.
The local Gafra people in the city where the incident occurred are fleeing, and a few wealthy businessmen with armed bodyguard teams are still watching.
After all, once they leave, their estates will be destroyed, and the wealth they can't take with them will be plundered.
There is even a special campaign to "take back Ameria" in the local area!
Some people chanted to take back their homeland from the Gefra people, to expel all Gefra people, and the local society became very dangerous.
Any way of negotiating has been closed, it's not that they don't want to talk, it's that they really can't.
The two talked about the possibility of force suppression just now, but His Excellency the Governor refused.
He doesn't think it's a good idea to use force when neither side is rational enough, which will only lead to greater unrest and unpredictable consequences.
After being silent for a while, the Prime Minister said, "What we need to consider now is not the issue of local order, but the issue of whether the initiative in the war is in our hands."
"Leave it to me now, there's not much time left for you."
"The Federation took the initiative to attack Mariro to solve their only hidden danger. The Pengios have begun to intervene. The president of the Federation asked me to cooperate with them to intercept Pengio's fleet in the Atlantic a few days ago."
"The war has actually broken out, ... Governor, if you don't have a choice, then I can only choose for you."
"We can't wait for Pongio's army to reach our door before we realize we need to fight back!"
The Governor also fell silent afterwards, considering many things.
For more than ten minutes, there was only the dull ~IndoMTL.com~ in the receiver from the light breathing of two people.
At the end, the Governor sighed, "I am willing to obey the orders of this island..."
He compromised.
Actually he also knew very well that in times of peace, Amelia could maintain a relatively unique state of "independence".
The island will not start a "civil war" because he, the governor, is not so cooperative with the island's decision-making.
But during the war, if he has not been able to complete the unity of morphological consciousness with the island, then the island will never continue to tolerate him.
His Excellency the Prime Minister is also relieved, "You don't have to worry too much, our reinforcements will arrive in two days at most."
"This time we will mix and cooperate with the federal side, and the command may not be in your hands, and certainly not in mine."
"Professional things should be handed over to professional people. We can formulate some general policies, but don't add confusion to the details."
"What do you say?"
