Chapter 331 Rebirth (promised(1/2)
The other person doesn't look like a laborer.
Of course, this is nonsense. Anyone who is clean, well-dressed, and holding a cane cannot look like a laborer.
"You...are you?" Adu was so nervous that he could not speak. At this time, it was definitely not good news for a noble to appear in his home.
The other party walked towards him.
Adu shivered with fright, and suddenly he was like a person submerged in water rising to the surface. His body and mind became much brighter and clearer. He suddenly opened his eyes, only to find that he was in the infirmary.
"Dream?" He was a little confused. Was that a dream just now? He was still in the infirmary?
He couldn't tell the difference between reality and the dream just now was too real.
But immediately, something happened that made him realize the reality.
"Are you awake? Here is the bill. Do you want to pay it now or submit it to the management office to be deducted from your salary?" The doctor calmly threw the bill to him.
Adu only felt a twinge of angina, which was too realistic.
Then he got up, paid the fee with the money he had saved, and had no choice but to go back to work.
You have to work more and save more money.
Adu continues to work very hard.
But Jenkins then intensified his efforts, and soon, a year later, the workers could no longer bear it.
Adu has a very good character. At best, he is gentle and kind, but at worst, he is weak, even cowardly. Faced with repeated oppression, he chose to tolerate it.
Time and again, time and time again, but finally, the workers couldn't stand it anymore.
A group of workers, about a thousand people, surrounded Jenkins and launched a resistance against him. Jenkins seemingly gave in, and Adu was very happy. Although he was not a rebel, he also benefited from the resistance.
But soon, they were brutally suppressed.
The repression didn't come from Jenkins, at least...not explicitly.
Jenkins only used the excuse of "the array is broken" to stop the distribution of food and water to the rebels, but he did not expect that the health condition of these workers had already been so bad that they did not drink water or eat for a day or two.
Things would die immediately. Jenkins' approach directly caused many of them to die.
Adu was not one of them. He did not participate in the riot from the beginning, did not stop drinking and drinking water, and survived. However, the workers rioted again. They took mining picks and shovels and rushed towards Jenkins and his lackeys.
Adu did not go. In fact, only about a quarter of the rioting workers were there, and the others...were all waiting.
What are you waiting for? Of course, you are waiting for the results to come out.
Whoever wins, who they follow.
The riot caused chaos, but Adu did nothing because he was very weak and he didn't want to follow anyone. He just wanted to make money, and he didn't want to fight or fight for it.
But there is no way.
Soon, Mr. Fury found Adu and wanted him to join in the fight against Jenkins.
"Everyone comes together, that Jenkins will definitely be scared, just like before!" Mr. Fury said: "Adu, do you want to come together!?"
In the end, Adu didn't go with him. He felt that no matter how this matter ended, he had to work anyway, so it was better to take care of yourself and earn your own wages instead of doing things that were not available.
Mr. Fury went by himself. He said that he was afraid that he would also be threatened by Jenkins. He was already very old and did not want to die of thirst or starvation, so he had to fight.
Adu didn't understand. Anyway, he still went to work every day and was as diligent as before. His food, water and salary were also the same. He spent a peaceful week like this.
The next week, conflict broke out.
About a quarter of the workers are willing to go, and the rest may have various reasons, but they just don’t want to go.
In fact, a group of people with Tuke as the core strongly supported Jenkins and in turn attacked the rebellious workers.
Because Tuke and the others are the beneficiaries, Jenkins has been giving them double the food and water that others receive, 50% higher wages, cheap medical care, etc.
The 50% higher salary was actually just a 50% deduction. From the salary paid by the empire, Jenkins bribed the managers and ate the wages of the workers. It was typical for him to take advantage of the bottom and take advantage of the top, but this was also in line with his usual style.
So, the rebellious labor failed.
Their other labor brothers are unwilling to help them, and there's Jenkins and his lackeys!
They were immediately liquidated. They no longer had wages, only basic water, and everyone worked for 14 hours! This was not standing on the assembly line or typing on the keyboard in an office, but going down to mine with a pickaxe!
Or other heavy physical labor!
14 hours of heavy physical labor is already reaching the limit even for professionals!
Jenkins began to liquidate them, and the workers who did not participate began to rejoice. Fortunately, they did not come forward. Fortunately, they did not resist. Otherwise, who could bear this end?
Adu was not happy, he was just a little confused, could this really succeed? At the same time, he was very sad, because Mr. Fuli was tired every day, and he would now take the time to help Mr. Fuli solve necessary tasks.
Without help, Mr. Fury might die of exhaustion.
However, Mr. Fuli asked Adu: "Adu, why would you rather come to help me at this time than really go and defeat that idiot? It is obvious that he is dead, and we all don't need to do this, but
Why would you rather watch than come to help?"
This question stopped Adu.
Yes, why? He actually wants to work less and eat more meat, but why is he unwilling to join?
why?
have no idea.
But his purpose is actually very simple. He doesn't want to cause trouble, and he doesn't want to worry about so much. He comes to hell just to make money. He comes to hell to give him a lot of money, and his salary is settled in gold coins. Even ten years later, he can
If you can afford to pay for the portal, you can still have enough money to buy a piece of land after you return home and rent it out to others, just like the old man in your hometown. Maybe you can also marry a half-elf wife like the old man.
His biggest wish in this life is to marry a half-elf wife who is so beautiful and slender that no one can take their eyes away.
In the end, he did not reply to Mr. Fuli's words. He just thought silently and helped Mr. Fuli finish half of the mining barrel. He went back with doubts.
Time passed little by little, and Adu was still unable to figure out the matter. Instead, he was whipped several times by the supervisor because he was in a daze.
Supervisors are all managers. In addition to those who do accounting and writing, there are also those who manage other people's work. However, they are all Jenkins people now.
Four months later, another group of people resisted. The reason was that these people were devout believers and believed in gods very much. There was a taboo in the holy scriptures that prohibited people from dealing with demons and contacting demon supplies and breath.
But this is hell after all, how could there be no demons? The newly opened mines are full of demonic aura, which can mess with people's minds. A great demon should have died here, and the aura left behind has long been rooted in this place. There is nothing we can do about it.
Expelled.
The church members were unwilling to mine here, but Jenkins didn't care so much and forced them to continue, because if the construction period was delayed, it would be a big problem!
So the believers also began to resist.
Not surprisingly, they failed again, as there were only a few followers.
But Jenkins used a better method. He began to persuade these believers to describe contact with the devil's breath as a trial, a test, and a test of their sincere beliefs.
Jenkins moralized and then instrumentalized the behavior of being exposed to demonic aura, and then forced believers to change.
What he said was like, if you don't contact others on behalf of others, you are guilty.
But some people really do this.
Therefore, the believers also failed.
Time passes longer and longer.
One labor group after another rose up to resist for their own reasons, but basically lost, while everyone else watched indifferently. Even if they didn't watch, they wouldn't have the heart to do it again.
If you still participate for the second time, what will be the consequences if two consecutive riots fail?
They dare not even think about it.
Adu did not participate even once. He still has Mr. Fury's questions in his mind, even though Mr. Fury has been dead for three months and is exhausted.
Everyone has resisted, but why not resist together? Why should we stand by and watch while others resist?
Everyone should know it. It is clear that Jenkins is dead and no one needs to do this anymore, but why do others prefer to watch rather than come to help?
When asking this question, he asked himself again, why didn't he go?
Adu seemed to understand something, but he didn't seem to understand.
Later, Adu himself could no longer work, and he found that now... his salary was getting less and less, he was working more and more, and his health was beginning to decline.
He wanted to go home, to the small city where he was born, buy a piece of land, become a small landowner, and marry a half-elf wife.
He also began to feel angry. He had seen too many people's sadness and pain. He wanted to unite everyone and liberate the entire camp.
So he started running around in his spare time.
Adu is a good old man. Just like he helped Fuli, he always helps others. He is a simple and good old man, and he actually has a certain reputation.
He wants to unite families one by one, and people one by one, to gather everyone's strength and overthrow Jenkins, so that everyone can finally go back home with their money.
But... he found that his reputation was of no use. Once, just like he rejected Mr. Fury, he also rejected invitations from others.
Because he rejected too many people, so...those people also rejected him.
Instead, his behavior was tipped off by Jenkins' lackeys, and Jenkins found out about it.
Jenkins' nerves are already very sensitive. He will never tolerate the next confrontation now. These idiots resist him again and again? There is one person who is still in contact?!
Damn it!
To be continued...
