Chapter 1422 Protest wave
On August 1940, 8, the "rice price disturbance" in the Shanghai International Settlement officially broke out!
The cause this time is the rising rice price.
The fuse came from a small wonton shop.
Quite a few SH citizens found that the rice noodles they bought at a huge price had been infiltrated with a lot of grass ash and sand.
This is simply worse.
But there are also people who are surprised.
I didn't find grass ash or sand in the rice noodles I bought a few days ago. Why did they suddenly appear?
However, the crowd was raging, and the doubts were instantly submerged.
The first unlucky one was Dayu Rice Store.
This rice store is not big and does not have the strength to store rice on a large scale.
The rice noodles they sell are all wholesaled from large commercial firms, and then sold at a higher price to the surrounding residents.
Their main clients are SH citizens in Jing'an Temple centered on Lanzi Lane.
After the accident, they were the first to be targeted.
Dozens of citizens who suffered from the disaster went to Dayu Rice Store to confront them under the instigation.
But when they arrived at the Dayu Rice Shop, they found that the team had actually become hundreds of people.
Many of them were completely unfamiliar faces.
Nobody cares.
Everyone thinks that this is probably the person who was deceived, right?
The boss of Dayu Rice Co., of course, tried his best to deny it.
Just when the two sides were at a stalemate, a thin man suddenly jumped out of the protesting citizens, pointed at the boss's nose and cursed.
A guy was worried that the boss would be injured, so he stood in front of him and pushed the guy.
Unexpectedly, the man fell to the ground immediately.
"You've been beaten! You've been beaten!" Several voices suddenly rang out from the protesting crowd: "Da Yumi is beating people, the black-hearted boss is beating people!"
"Kill them, kill them!"
"Smash this unscrupulous shop, smash this unscrupulous shop!"
The crowd was in chaos.
Dozens of people rushed up.
The rest of the citizens who originally came to protest and confront each other and demanded to exchange rice noodles were also coerced into it.
The mere two fellows couldn't stop the angry crowd at all.
Protesting citizens rushed in.
Dayu Rice was smashed all at once.
The boss of Dayu Rice Co. wanted to stop him but dared not. He begged repeatedly in distress.
But his voice was quickly drowned out.
Strange to say, grass ash and sand were indeed found among the rice noodles found in the rice shop.
The boss can't argue with anything.
You obviously checked it yourself?
How could it be?
"Kill this boss, kill this black-hearted boss!"
The citizens found out the real evidence and were completely angry.
At this time, someone shouted again: "Their rice noodles are all from Fujin Rice, Little Japan won't let us live, let's go, go to Fujin Rice to settle accounts!"
"Go, go!"
All the people rushed out of Dayu Rice Store with furious emotions and went straight to Fujin Rice Shop.
The painstaking efforts of half a lifetime turned into nothing in an instant, and the boss wanted to cry but had no tears.
Of the only two clerks in the store, one ran away in the chaos, and the only one left was a clerk surnamed Feng who came in within two days.
"Boss, don't be sad." Buddy Feng suddenly took out a check from his pocket and handed it to the boss: "Let's go, find some other business. If you want to survive, don't ask about it. In a word Don't say it either."
After speaking, Buddy Feng quickly left the rice shop.
The boss glanced at the check and found that the number on it far exceeded his own loss.
In an instant, he completely understood.
This guy was recruited a few days ago, then?
He got it, really got it.
"If you want to survive, don't ask about this matter, don't say a word!"
What Buddy Feng said just now is still in my ears.
The boss took the check and swore that he would never do rice noodle business again.
And this matter, he will rot in his stomach forever.
Some people, some forces, he can never afford to offend.
Fortunately, although the rice store was smashed, the compensation he received had already exceeded the value of the rice store itself.
For him, this is probably a blessing in disguise.
If you want to blame, blame this war.
……
"Director Meng, let's start."
"Oh."
Meng Shaoyuan put down the book in his hand.
Qi Xuezhen took a look, and immediately looked contemptuous.
***!
It's okay to be lustful, the books I read are all such books.
Qi Xuezhen collected herself: "Whether it will cause a huge commotion, we are not sure yet."
"Yes, it will."
There was a smile on Meng Shaoyuan's face: "People are blind, especially in group activities. Once someone encourages them, most people will be involved. The price of rice has remained high in Shanghai for a long time. Let most of the people live in poverty, and they have long been dissatisfied. They need a way to vent their dissatisfaction, and we provide them. Not to mention..."
He glanced at Qi Xuezhen: "Shanghai's industrial and commercial circles, banking and money industry, etc., we have helped them a lot. Now, it's time for them to repay us."
Although Qi Xuezhen despises the District Chief Meng very much, even if she reads books like this, she still believes in one thing.
Everything is under the control of this young master.
He is also his own teacher.
Following the teacher, I learned a lot of knowledge about psychology.
If the teacher can change the problem of lust...
Qi Xuezhen didn't know what his teacher was thinking at this moment.
The student grew more and more beautiful, and his figure became better and better.
The last time I pretended to be a fool, I just took advantage of her.
When can we take her down?
With a pervert, you can never expect him to change his ways.
……
Meng Shaoyuan was right in saying:
People are groups, and once there is agitation, the backlog of emotions in the heart will explode.
This also has the future of "group crime".
Of course, the citizens of Shanghai are not committing crimes.
They just need a channel to express their grievances.
Since the outbreak of the war, there has been a very good inflation of prices which had been kept under control.
Especially for the necessities of ordinary people's daily life, it is simply one price per day.
Rice is rising, meat is rising, oil is rising...everything is rising.
Except the money is falling.
Everyone complains every day.
After working hard for a month, when the salary came, as soon as I got the money, I hurriedly spent every penny and bought as many necessities as possible.
Because you have no idea how much you can buy with this poor salary in the next hour.
Back home, looking at the poor things I bought, I sighed and didn't know how to live in the future.
But there is no way, no one will care about their lives.
When protesting crowds suddenly appeared on the street, their emotions were instantly ignited.
Especially after someone shouted slogans such as "stable rice prices, we want to live"!
We want to live!
It's that simple.
More and more citizens have joined the ranks of protest!
