Chapter 1354: Fierce Fight! Master and Disciple 93 (Part 2)
The afternoon sun was a bit strong. Osman had just had his meal. He was walking on the city wall facing the fortress area from the eastern guard station. This was the last area where the sunlight reached. The middle section of the bridge in front of him was the largest covered area by the rays of the artificial sun. At this time, there were some trucks on the bridge transporting workers returning from the construction site.
The door has been opened, and people from Section 12 are preparing to inspect the returning workers and terminate their contracts directly. Osman knew just when Natasha came over that it was the old man Ye Chunwang who asked these workers to come back.
At this time, the first truck approached. Groups of workers got off the truck, carrying their own reclamation equipment, preparing to terminate the contract directly with the people in Section 12, and also received a three-month salary of 1,500 yuan. After excluding the 3% tax, there is still 1,455 yuan, which is satisfactory to many people.
However, there was a commotion below. Osman brought up a light and shadow screen, and a worker angrily threw the contents of his bag on the ground.
"Why?"
"Sir, since you have terminated the contract, you will no longer be a free equipment user in the Pioneer Plan. Therefore, based on the use and wear and tear of your equipment, your equipment fee of 228 yuan will be deducted. Is there any problem?"
This somewhat angry worker looked at the members of Section 12 in front of him, as well as many people from Section 3 next to him. He took the money from this section member angrily and walked into the Eastern Guard Station. At this time He just wanted to go to the bar for a drink quickly. On the streets inside the Eastern Guard Station, some restaurant and tavern owners were already standing in front of the stores with their people, ready to attract customers into the stores at any time.
The man didn't think much and ran directly to the door of a pub. He took a look at the price of beer, which was 50 cents a cup. He immediately rushed in and asked the boss to get him a beer and some delicious food first.
There are constant disputes between workers and Section 12 due to equipment damage or wear and tear. Although most people feel that this is a disguised deduction of money, they have breached the contract first and only bargained for a few words before taking the money and leaving. The guard station became lively. At this point, most of the people from Section 3 were resting in the dormitory, while some were maintaining order nearby.
More and more people are flocking to restaurants, bars and pubs. The past three months have been too painful for most people. Many people have gathered together to have fun. 1,500 yuan is for the consumption of the bottom class. It is already a very large amount of money.
Osman sat helplessly on the ground and watched the trucks parked on the bridge. Most of the workers were still waiting anxiously. There were more workers coming back this time. Osman originally thought that not so many people would come back, but Now it seems that at least three to four thousand people have returned.
People are creatures that give up easily. Osman smiled helplessly. There would definitely be a riot in the city because of the return of so many workers.
Didi didi
Osman answered the phone.
"Why let them in?"
Osman looked at Zijuan and Ling Hong on the screen who seemed to be eating in a restaurant, and he scratched his head.
"Honey, you are on vacation now, this matter"
"Send all these workers back."
Zijuan stared at Osman slightly angrily, and Osman didn't know how to explain it. At this time, on another light and shadow screen, on the road at the main entrance of the Eastern Guard Station, media vehicles had already driven over, and a large number of reporters came directly from When they got off the car, everyone wanted to report the incident immediately. At this time, Osman burst out laughing without tears.
"Honey, you all eat slowly first. The reporter is here. I can handle it."
As Osman hung up the phone, at the gate of the Eastern Security Station, a council officer came with people and directly blocked the gate. The reporters did not come in. They just continued to shoot outside and started reporting. After getting up, Osman saw the eye-catching title as soon as he opened the news page.
The Pioneer Plan is suspected of failure!
Osman knew very well that what happened next would definitely set off a new round of storm in the city, and what exactly he was doing in the barrier area would soon be spread.
After contacting them one by one, Osman directly ordered them not to block the door. As long as the reporters came in quietly and did not cause any disturbance, they were required to undergo strict full-body inspection when entering the eastern guard station.
Soon a testing machine was delivered to the door, and reporters began to queue up to wait for the test before entering the city.
Nowadays, no vehicles can go to the barrier area through the guard station. The garbage generated in some places where construction has not been completed will be processed by the garbage disposal company and turned into a mixture of liquid and solid, which will be poured directly into the barrier area. In the ravine.
This is also a helpless move. In recent years, a large number of garbage disposal companies have provided a lot of assistance to criminals operating in the barrier area. Some companies have been detected, as well as some insiders of Section 3.
The current situation of the 3rd Department is relatively stable, but its reputation in the city is still the same. Many people even mock the 3rd Department because they think it is the most useless among the 13 departments.
The reputation of Section 3 has plummeted, because it requires huge expenses every year and does not play a very obvious role. The voices of cutting Section 3 staff are getting stronger and stronger. Osman is very helpless in the face of all this. Now Section 3 has less than 50,000 staff members, compared with Section 5, there are only more than 10,000, and now the number of people in Section 5 is about to exceed 30,000.
Osman has recently been selecting people who can work in the Fortress Zone for a long time. The number of applicants is very small. Even with generous promotions and salary treatment, most people reject and refuse. The internal situation of the previous failure of the Fortress Zone march is also widely spread throughout Section 3. Many people in Section 3 have a certain aversion to going to the Fortress Zone.
This matter has already started at the end of December last year, but there are very few people willing to work in the Fortress Zone now. Even if there are willing to sign up, their physical fitness and ability are not enough to be the monitors of the Fortress Zone.
It is necessary to track criminals for a long time in that dark, hard and cold place. Not many people can do such a job.
At this time, reporters had already come in and were busy interviewing the workers who had already entered the tavern. Osman planned to go down and take a look. He took the elevator and quickly came to the bottom floor. As soon as he walked out of the elevator, several team leaders stood in a row to salute.
"Bring some people over."
Osman said, walking out with his hands behind his back, and soon came to the outside of the tavern. As soon as he came, he saw a worker with a red face who seemed to be drunk.
"It's just a lie. They tricked us into doing experiments in that kind of place."
"Yes, it's impossible to grow anything."
One after another, dissatisfied voices came, and reporters were interviewing these workers to understand their daily work and life in the Barrier Zone.
Osman didn't plan to stop anything, because he heard Clark vaguely mention this matter when he was drinking. It was indeed very bad. Now there is no ability to revive the Barrier Zone, but why this plan should be started, Osman seemed to have thought of this, but many things could only be accumulated in his heart and could not be said out.
Osman strolled leisurely on the street. At this time, the street was very noisy. A large number of reporters entered the tavern for interviews, but everything was in order. Osman had received a call from the director of the construction site where the workers lived.
"The old man Ye's approach was correct."
This was Osman's first reaction after hearing what happened. Even if the matter had fermented, the approach of Section 12 this time should not make everyone unanimously point the finger at the Action Section.
"Perhaps only this approach can satisfy people."
The workers did not all say that it was the Action Section that cheated them. Some workers also talked about their interactions with some members of the Action Section in the Barrier Area and their help.
Reporters now dare not write some reports to attract attention at will. Once the report does not match the facts, they are easily arrested.
At this time, CBV was broadcasting a special program. The old partners of economist Hu Youran and sociologist Duke began to go abroad again.
Osman smiled and looked at the two people's relaxed but slightly serious expressions. He probably knew what was going on.
1:03 p.m.
The rumbling sound of machinery was heard. Latis stood quietly in a shed, looking at the current construction dynamic map of the new prison. At present, more than 40 meters have been dug underground, all relying on manpower and some machinery.
"It is already the fastest speed, Mr. Latis."
A construction engineer from the company on site said, and Latis nodded.
"Continue to dig, according to the construction drawings I gave you."
The engineer next to him nodded, and Latis took out a cigarette and lit it and walked out. In front of him was a pit that was still expanding, and there were a large number of elevators on the edge, constantly carrying some stone materials up. Every place in the pit was guarded by people from Section 11, urging these serious prisoners to work.
Latis looked at the place in the distance quietly. The situation here was indeed very cruel. The labor of the heavy prisoners was squeezed to the maximum extent. They dug and moved day and night. Many heavy prisoners had different degrees of strain and pain. However, before these injuries were healed, they would be their turn again after a temporary reprieve. Many heavy prisoners were already miserable, and even some light prisoners could only come here to participate.
The matter of the two reporters in the prison before made Latis feel a little shocked, but C was too hasty when he came to deal with it. Now the two reporters have been detained in Section 2. Latis knows very well that all the problems in this place are clearer than anyone else.
"Just knowing it, what can I do!"
Latis smiled helplessly, exhaled a puff of smoke, and looked at the miserable prisoners below. Latis wanted to rely on the new prison to build the prison into a space where prisoners can be a little freer inside the prison, and even build it into a place where prisoners can reform themselves.
The new cells are all single rooms, all of which are equipped with lighting and shadow equipment. A room is 5 to 6 square meters, which is enough for all the prisoners to eat, drink, defecate and urinate. There is no need for exercise yards, and the only place the prisoners can go out is to work at the agricultural base.
It's just that it's impossible to build this prison in a short time. Funding is a huge problem. Now Section 11 is still helping the Angus family, and a lot of the black gold in the prison has gone into the Angus family. In the account, this was allowed by Congress behind the scenes. As long as the construction is completed and the Angus family makes a stable profit, the money can be returned to the prison.
Now the only thing to do is to lay a solid foundation for the new prison, and to dig an escape tunnel as Gene had imagined. The underground construction is particularly difficult. This escape tunnel requires more than 100 entrances, and these entrances can be opened in the shortest time. , allowing hundreds of people to enter the tunnel to take refuge, Latis also thought about it. The construction of such a tunnel can only rely on the prisoners digging day and night.
Many things in the prisons are very old. Up to 70% of the cells in the four prisons are old. The cold and damp conditions characterize the prisons today. Just cleaning the cells is a huge expense. Basically, one cell The cells are cleaned once a month to prevent the spread of infectious diseases. The stench is a true reflection of prison cells today.
Fights between some factions within the prison that occur every day are also normal. Although Section 11 handles these things every day, there are still many things happening. Working in such a smelly and boring prison is not a good thing for Section 11. It is a great test for every member of the department.
Many ugly incidents in Section 11 are happening every day in the prison. Many grassroots officers are trying every means to squeeze material out of the prisoners. Latis is indifferent to these things. It’s not because he doesn’t know, but because of this. is an inevitable result.
Only when a new prison is built can these phenomena be eliminated to a great extent. Most of the prison's facilities and wages are squeezed from the prisoners, although Congress now allocates a sum of money every month. , but this money is not even enough to pay the salaries of the department members.
Latis is feeling more and more exhausted, and everything now is not what Latis wants to see.
"Lord Latis, a new prisoner has been imprisoned. Do you want to come back and review it?"
A call came over, and Latis nodded after thinking for a while.
"Prepare the information and ask the prisoners to line up outside the section chief's office in accordance with the prison rules."
This is the norm every day. Latis will personally review the information of each prisoner and the price of the cell that each prisoner can accept. Those prisoners who cannot pay can only live in a crowded, damp, and stinky 16-person room.
Soon Latis returned to the prison. She quickly returned to the section chief's office. At the door were 18 people, both men and women, who were in prison today.
After Latis glanced around the prisoners, he returned to the office and began to call in the richest prisoner. He paid 50,000 yuan a year for a single cell.
Soon after checking the information and the money paid by the prisoner, Latis asked someone to take the prisoner to the cell. The whole process was quick, and it was the turn of the last six people.
"Sir, I have a certain degree of physical illness and can't stand the cold environment. Can you let me live in a cell on the upper floor?"
asked a sickly prisoner in prison for a robbery, Latis put his chin in his hands.
"Can you afford to pay for a room for 4 people? It only costs 2,400 a year, and it also provides a certain level of high-quality food."
The prisoner shook his head.
"Sir, can I owe this money first? I can pay it after I am released from prison or from what I earn on the farm. I"
"Take them down."
Several clerks came in immediately and took the prisoners away without any explanation. The prisoner was still saying that he could pay later.
"Then just wait until you have the income from your labor before paying. Credit is not allowed here!"
Latis has said the same thing so many times that he can't remember, because there have been some credit cases in the past. Some prisoners kept saying that they would pay, but those short-term prisoners did not fulfill their promises after they were released from prison.
Latis leaned over tiredly, lit a cigarette, and thought carefully about why he came to the prison department and became the section chief of Section 11. Latis couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"I don't remember the reason anymore!"
Although Latis said he didn't remember it, he knew very well that after the gods customized the plan of the Business Department at that time, no one among the section chiefs of Section 11 was willing to take the job. After that, Alpha said that he was very suitable, and indeed he was very suitable. , Latis smiled bitterly, this may be the real reason why he was willing to come over. Latis has felt that he is different from other women since a long time ago.
Over the years, the reason why he helped Angus's family was not only because he used to go to Angus's house to celebrate the New Year, but the biggest reason was Alpha. Latis felt hot, took out his phone and pressed the 0005 number.
"What, is there a problem in the prison?"
"Would you like to have dinner together tonight? It's my turn to take a vacation."
There was a bitter laugh from the other side of the phone.
"I have a lot of things going on here. There are too many people taking the business exam this year."
"I'll come right over to you and we'll have a drink, in your office."
Alpha nodded in agreement. Latis smiled and hung up the phone. There was a trace of pain in his heart, but soon Latis stood up with a smile and began to arrange the work for the meeting. He could chat with Alpha every time he had a meal. A lot of things, this is the most relaxed Latis has been in recent years.
2:09 p.m.
"I can't wait any longer. I have to give a televised speech first."
In just one hour, public opinion began to ferment. This pioneer plan was criticized, and reporters also announced the number of terminated workers through on-site field surveys. 4,013 people and 12 subjects had terminated their contracts. As well as a large number of details in the process of the barrier zone land recovery plan, now voices have begun to rise, and everyone is questioning the authenticity of this plan.
"Didn't Xiaoye say that he would deliver a televised speech in person? Can't we wait any longer?"
Gene asked. Locke stood up from his desk and walked to the sofa area. After sitting down, he took the wine bottle in Gene's hand and took a sip. He felt as if he was being pricked by small needles around his head. And now I still have a neurotic stomach disease that occurs when I get excited, and my stomach has begun to hurt vaguely. There is currently no specific medicine for this disease, and it can only be treated with some drugs to relieve labor pains.
"Take it easy."
Gene said and Locke sighed.
"What is that boy Clark doing? Even if you really can't come up with a plan, why don't you start construction in such a hurry? You can tell me."
A report on the real situation has been submitted a long time ago. After three months of success, the success rate of the land recovery plan is almost zero. This is simply unimaginable. Locke originally thought that with a 30% success rate, at least it would be about the same. Plant something first.
"How is your investigation going? The second trial is about to begin."
Locke was a little relieved at this time. He kept muttering in his mind that it was none of my business. After adding the effect of alcohol, his stomach relaxed a little.
"We haven't found anything yet. We just found some witnesses, but we still can't find any evidence."
Locke sighed helplessly.
"I've heard everything about Jean. If you really can't participate in any directional issues in the city, I really can't imagine it."
Gene said with a smile.
"I'll do everything I can."
"Isn't it a little too much?"
Locke said, thinking carefully about some of the things that Jean has done now. He broke into some gambling establishments and arrested them directly. The result was a storm in the city. Because he is the section chief, he can issue his own investigation order at any time. What Jean is doing now It was a bit of a headache, but most of what he dealt with were things that went unnoticed and were hidden underground.
There are also arrests of some wanted criminals. In short, what Jean is doing now is basically the same as the name of the Miscellaneous Affairs Section of Section 13 that was originally announced to the public. They are all doing miscellaneous errands for various subjects. After many tasks, Ji En Endu directly put the responsibility of changing the incident handler to the staff who mobilized the incident, which was equivalent to giving credit to these staff, and most of the staff happily accepted it.
Gene would also drink and chat with some ordinary staff in the area from time to time. Locke didn't know what was wrong with Gene. He used to always focus on big things, but now he spends most of his time dealing with small things. Previous cases Full power has been given to Mo Xiaolan, and Gene will not participate in the process.
"Jean, I'm not telling you what to do. Please restrain yourself. Look, the damage repair costs in some places last month were as high as 110,000."
“Shouldn’t our 13th subject have funds?”
Gene said with a smile, Locke rolled his eyes at Gene.
"What kind of funds do you need? What else did you say? You have 13 subjects. You are the only one in your 13 subjects. Do you really not want to have a secretary for you? Do you want to hire more capable people?"
"Then I push these capable people up, right?"
Locke nodded.
"I think you are very suitable for cultivating talents."
Gene smiled and shook his head.
"You should be aware of many problems at this stage, Xiaopang. Students trained under elite education are contributing to this city, but many things have begun to go wrong. Maybe they will fail, maybe they won't."
Gene said, Locke also knows what the current situation is in the business department. He no longer knows how to deal with it, sometimes.
"We can only do it step by step. I think it will get better in a few years."
At this time, the door to the room was pushed open, and Yin Xianglin walked in angrily.
"What's wrong Xiang Rin?"
Locke asked, and Yin Xianglin directly called up a report on 12 subjects.
"Shouldn't this kind of thing be announced earlier? Why do you want to announce it now when something goes wrong?"
Yin Xianglin was a little excited as he spoke. Locke didn't know how to explain it. He was not used to this kind of thing in his daily life, so this kind of thing was basically handled by Locke alone. Most people in the city and in various subjects were normal. Yin Xianglin handles the handover.
"Hey, okay Xianglin, sit down and have a cup of tea first."
Locke walked over with a smile and pulled Yin Xianglin over, who was holding his hands angrily.
"I've had enough, me"
After seeing Jin's expression, Yin Xianglin did not continue speaking, but sat next to Jin angrily.
"Lord Jean, what should we do? Every day there is either this problem or that problem."
"As long as people still exist, problems will continue to arise, because no matter what kind of approach, there is no such thing as the best of both worlds. Okay, Xianglin, it's almost time for me to leave."
Jin stood up and walked slowly to the window. At this time, Yin Xianglin ran over quickly and grabbed Jin's sleeve.
"General Manager, can I go out with Master Jin for a while? I have finished the work at hand."
"Give you half an hour."
Yin Xianglin jumped down with Jin, and the two walked through the square of the General Affairs Department. They met many staff members along the way, and then they went directly into the shop opposite.
"Oh, Master Jin, you are here again."
Zhang Wang smiled and came over. After the two came to the window, Yin Xianglin looked at the pedestrians passing by the window sullenly.
"Master Jin, one day there will be a big problem in this city."
"Maybe!"
Jin only replied with two words. A little problem may attract the attention of the whole city, which means that people in the city are under great pressure now.
"I really can't stand it. I have to do a lot of things against my will every day."
Yin Xianglin was distressed, but Gene didn't answer at this time. Instead, he quietly watched the vehicles coming and going on the street outside. Most of the vehicles came here to only one place, the General Affairs Department.
People who come here every day include family members, some businessmen, and congressmen, but Gene saw a familiar figure at this time. Freya was surrounded by reporters as soon as she got off the car.
"There will always be a way to solve it."
As Gene said, Yin Xianglin lay on the table and fiddled with the hair hanging on the table.
"You always say this, Lord Gene."
"Okay, Xianglin, if one day, I really feel powerless, I will just find an ordinary person who looks good and let him become the manager. What do you think?"
Yin Xianglin widened his eyes.
"Stop it, Lord Gene, this kind of joke can't be made."
