Blackstone Code

Chapter 216


Tom, a very common name, so common that people are reluctant to give their children such a bland name.

But it is indeed a person’s name, and the owner of this name is hiding in an alley with fear.

A military vehicle drove slowly across the street. The people on the military vehicle couldnt see Tom hiding in the deepest part of the alley. The soldier with his hands on the machine gun would only focus on those who might appear. On the silhouette in the light.

The strike has ended, and military controls have been slightly looser, turning into a curfew.

During the eleven hours from 6 pm to 7 am on the 2nd day, no one is allowed to appear on the street without a valid reason.

Originally, the military meant to issue passes to those who need to go out in the middle of the night, but some people think that this move is a bit like a repressive rule implemented by a country without freedom under a dictatorship, which hinders the Baylor Federations In the name of a free country, they cancelled this idea and practice.

People who need to go to the streets instead must provide their society insurance number and instructions for their presence outside the bedroom during the curfew.

In this way, there is much more freedom. No one interferes with the free will of the people. They can appear where they want to appear anytime, anywhere, as long as they can explain why.

This is the sweetness of freedom, long live the Free Federation!

The departure of the military vehicle made Tom sighed in relief. After waiting for a while, he did not hear the sound of soldiers stepping on the ground while patrolling, he once again shuttled between light and shadow.

The destination he is going to this time is Nell’s home.

He is Nells best friend. They have been classmates since the first grade of elementary school. Until recently, they were all employees in a factory and they lost their jobs.

It is not accurate to say that it is unemployed, because it is not unemployed, it is just that the factory has completely shut down indefinitely.

The idea of their foreman at the time was to take a group of people to take the raw materials from the raw material warehouse to the workshop and use them directly, and then divide the finished product out and sell it to make up for their losses.

In this matter, the two brothers have always walked the same way, and some differences occurred.

Later, Tom and other workers pried open the factorys raw material warehouse and pulled the raw materials into the workshop for production. The produced products were evenly distributed to all the workers. They brought these products back. The family disposed of it by themselves, but it is said that most of it was disposed of to Star Trading Company.

Although it is said that the auction will not function normally during the general strike, the acquisition has never been a problem. Of course, people can abide by the rules and systems for the recycling of goods. The main thing is that the recycling place has security guards with guns. From their professional level, the protection should not be fake.

Everyone thought that this incident would not have any follow-up results. During the strike, the factory boss did not do anything to them. Didnt expect the strike was just over, their boss, All of them went to court and demanded compensation, the total amount exceeded 3,000,000.

The police and soldiers have begun to arrest them, and a new batch of police has been in place. They are more efficient than the previous police.

The previous group of policemen thought they could come to work after the strike, but they ignored that they were not the only option. This gave the Veterans Office an opportunity.

A large number of veterans have filled the missing posts in the Sabine City Regional Police Department and all the sub-bureaus. As for the police who had planned to wait until the strike was over, they no longer have their positions.

In this case, it is almost impossible to expect to evade the sanctions of the law. After Tom dodges a thrilling arrest, he intends to ask Nell for help. He heard that Nell seems to have done it now. Yes, there is another title of manager, maybe he can help himself.

In fact, when all the compensation is apportioned to everyones head, its not that many, only one 20,000 yuan…just!

After avoiding several patrols without danger, Tom finally came to the door of Nell’s house. He knocked on the door, and soon there was the sound of people moving in the room.

I don’t know if the city is as quiet as a cemetery without the slightest noise at this time. Tom outside the door even heard the sound of some mechanical spring being pulled in the room, the sound of guns.

At the same time, Neels vigilant voice came from the room, “There is no money here, and we dont want to make trouble…”

During the strike There are countless crimes, just because peoples sights are drawn to both the labor and management of the strike. They did not notice that during this time, at least hundreds of families were invaded, some women were abused, and some were even robbed. The mob killed.

People can’t notice, because these have nothing to do with their vital interests, they can only see what is related to them.

The knock on the door in the middle of the night made Neel highly nervous. His answer was very similar to the most common answer of this class. You come here to rob, and you cant grab anything at all, even he was euphemistic. He expressed his attitude of admitting counsel no matter what, he was not willing to make trouble.

“It’s me, Tom.”

The door opened, and the light from the door made Tom sighed. He looked at Nell, and suddenly a thousand words were hidden in his chest. Time and people dont know where to start.

“Only you?”, Neel moved towards the dark corridor behind Tom. The pistol hidden behind him was not at all put down, and even his fingers did not leave the trigger.

Tom was nodded, and Nell just got out of position, and at the same time put his pistol in his pocket, welcoming Tom in.

After letting Tom in, Nell took another look at the corridor that moved towards the black hole, then closed the door and locked it so that it could not be opened directly from the outside.

This is a small trick that must be mastered when living in such a place. People often dont lock the door when they come to the house. This gives some people outside the door an opportunity to take advantage of it, but here , Nell will not let those who dont know that there is or dont do what they want.

After the two sat down, Nell poured some wine for Tom. The weather is getting colder and there is no heating in the room.

If you don’t drink a little, they will soon be frozen from the inside out, and the taste is uncomfortable.

After the two sat down, they didn’t say anything immediately. They just sat silently for a while and drank a while.

Perhaps because of the effect of alcohol, Toms expression became difficult to look, “You help me, now only you can help me.”

Nell looked at This old friend of several decades, he suddenly realized that he did not feel as soft-hearted as in the past, and immediately agreed. This may have something to do with his recent experience.

Since Lynch commissioned him to become the manager of the construction company, and during the more than a month working with Aser, he finally understood that some things are not as simple as people think.

at first He felt that capitalists are all evil, but when he also became “the running dog of capitalists”, he suddenly realized that this matter was not exactly as absolute and simple as he thought before.

Outside the Employment Center, he felt that everyone was very pitiful. Some people even knelt on the ground and clasped their hands together, begging him humblely, praying that he could grant him a job and give them a family. People get through this difficulty.

He wanted to save many people, but eventually found out that he couldn’t do it.

The budget Lynch gave him is limited. He must complete the work Lynch gave him before the budget is exhausted. He cannot save everyone.

He picked some of them whom he thought was the most pathetic, but soon he found out that he had been cheated.

Some people do work very hard, but there are also people who are always lazy, and there is a guy in his 30s who intentionally injured his finger and asked not only not to work, but also to pay He is equivalent to the salary of other labor hours, not the minimum standard salary.

Gradually, he became less angry. He became calm and indifferent. He didnt know if this was a good or bad phenomenon. He just understood that he knew more about this World. .

Nell didn’t make a statement, and Tom didn’t react immediately, he just thought he was too vague.

“Last time, the thing that Sigg said, the Boss has already called the police and sued us, and I can’t accompany the money!”

“He actually Ask us to compensate him according to the selling price of the goods. Even if I still keep those things in my hands, I cant afford that many money, he only needs money!”

The Boss they used to work for demanded compensation. The economy of the factory lost more than three million yuan. About 80% of this compensation is estimated based on the market price of the goods.

In other words, no matter how much the raw materials they steal are worth, they must compensate the factory at the price of the goods sold in the store.

In fact, the factory owner himself did not expect that the unfathomable mystery made a large sum of money. He was about to go bankrupt in an instant.

At the same time, in order to punish the capitalists, the city hall and the judiciary also agreed to litigate and crack down on these groups that caused damage during the strike. The Sabine City Court agreed to the claims of the factory owner .

If these people make up less than 3,000,000, they will face a terrifying sentence.

Tom was full of regret at this time, “I should have listened to you, Nell, you have to help me!”

Nell was silent for a while,” How much money is still missing?”

Tom said something he didnt feel very embarrassed about himself, “20,000 2,000……”

This gave Nell a headache, and he couldnt help it. Frowning, “How much did those you allocate to sell for?”

“1500…”

The room fell silent all at once, and Nell spent ten It took many seconds to make sure that his ears had not misheard, “You sold something worth tens of thousands of yuan…1500?”

He never thought Tom was a fool, sometimes he still He would be a little clever, but he hadn’t seen him for more than a month, and he suddenly felt that Tom was not just stupid!
