Chapter 2733

Tommy got up early in the morning, and Selina was rubbing her eyes.

"Honey, it's only 7 o'clock. Let's sleep a little longer."

Tommy kissed his wife and got up. Although there wouldn't be much going on today, Tommy wanted to get up early because he wanted to watch TV shows.

Soon after Tommy washed up, he came to the living room, ate bread and drank coffee, and watched the live broadcast on the crystal screen. Connor was still on the hospital bed, wanting to sleep for a while, but was called up by the hospital staff , Let him leave, if you want to continue to sleep, you need a bed fee.

Connor seemed extremely reluctant because he was too tired and extremely weak, and he had less than 10D of money left. Tommy could only go to the street to buy some physical supplements.

"You'd better hold off, Mr. Connor."

The reporter kindly reminded him, but Connor looked extremely annoyed. Tommy looked at the status of several people in frequency, and they were basically similar to Connor. There were many food sold along the street at the bottom floor, and the quality was very low.

If the intestines cannot adapt to these foods with a lot of additives, reactions will naturally occur. After all, the upper elites eat extremely luxurious food all year round.

Too many people have been eliminated in this first pass of the intestines. Tommy saw that the number of people who had given up had reached 91. It was only the second day, and there were very few people who could survive within a week.

Most of the people who can survive to the end should not exist, because they ignore the most basic fact. They have no friends at the bottom and cannot have friends.

It is very difficult for people to survive easily in a completely unfamiliar environment. Although some people found a job yesterday, they may be fired today.

In a breakfast shop, a woman dropped the food she handed to a customer on the floor. The shop was very busy, and soon there was an argument and the shop became chaotic. However, the woman who took the thing away did not choose to apologize, but started talking about it. Customer problems.

Sure enough, the woman was fired a few minutes later without receiving a cent of her salary. Tommy watched many random interviews on the street, where ordinary people were laughing at these elites.

Many of them went to protest outside the presidential mansion after heeding the words of some congressmen. If such protests were not stopped, they would last for a long time, and many of these people were elites who had the right to speak.

It was out of such considerations that Tommy suddenly launched such an experimental activity temporarily. Otherwise, if these people continued to make trouble, slowly the right to speak would start to guide them.

Because Tommy knows the tricks of the capital behind them better than anyone else, because he can see the future.

Seeing Connor walking hard on the dilapidated streets, Tommy laughed. He seemed to want to find a job, and this time Connor entered a bakery.

"I have made bread at home before, and my skills are very good."

The bakery owner just glanced at Connor.

"It's full."

Connor looked at the recruitment notice outside. The hourly wage per day was 5 to 10D. He hurried over. At this time, Connor no longer had the confidence he had yesterday.

"If you don't believe me, boss, just try the bread I made. It's guaranteed to be delicious."

The boss looked impatient, but immediately smiled when he saw the reporters outside.

"Oh, you're a master from above. Okay, I'll give you a chance to try."

Connor hurriedly followed the boss to the back kitchen, and then Connor started to get flour to make noodles. Everything seemed to be in order, but soon Connor felt that something was wrong, because there were many things in the kitchen that he had never seen before. Pass.

In the end, Connor was naive and made bread according to his own method. However, the quality of the flour was very poor. Connor worked hard to make a bread that looked good, and then baked it. The bread was baked after more than ten minutes.

The boss, the chef and some employees in the store came over, and everyone looked at Connor mockingly. Connor made some for himself first and just took a bite. He almost wanted to spit it out. The bread was very dry and hard and difficult to swallow. , the taste is also hard to describe, even a bit astringent.

"Are you feeding the pigs? One piece of bread, please pay."

The boss stretched out his hand, and other people shouted that it was unpalatable. Although Connor wanted to refute, he could only pay and take away the unpalatable bread. Connor looked at the pocket in front of him very uncomfortably. Such a big piece of bread, he I can eat it for several days.

Although it tasted terrible, Connor was very hungry now. He took a few bites of the unpalatable bread and swallowed it although it was uncomfortable.

At this time, Connor only had less than 3D money. Tommy looked at the other people with a smile, and someone else quit. He cursed and scolded several PLCs who were mediating. The man had just had a conflict with several people on the street. , and then he was beaten.

The man was still chattering about the PLC, but at this time, several PLCs turned around, held the man down and took him away, while the people who beat him smiled and left.

"Things like this are common at the bottom."

Selena also got up. Tommy smiled and hugged his wife. The two continued to watch. There was no meeting until nine o'clock today, and there was nothing important to deal with. The secretaries handled things well. Those ministers I have also been working hard these days.

Tommy's approach has achieved very good results. Now he does not need to worry too much about internal problems. The previous series of actions and deterrence have had a very obvious effect. These ministers no longer think about obeying the president's orders. thing.

"I didn't expect it to be like this."

Selena looked at the comments made by many people on the Internet about this TV show. Many people felt that some of the actions and cognitions of this group of elites who usually looked glamorous were even inferior to them, which even made people feel ridiculous.

This group of people from the elite class has done a lot of ridiculous things. On the first day they came, many people went to restaurants that discouraged people from the lower class. A meal costs at least 5D.

It is impossible for ordinary people in these slums to accept a restaurant with this kind of price. They will not go to eat in this kind of restaurant, but many people in the elite class do not understand.

Tommy stared quietly at the crystal screen in front of him. He was still thinking about some things that would be particularly important to this country in the future.

The interior has now settled down, the key lies in the exterior, especially the matter of the Stekas. If it is not handled well, there may be very big troubles in the future.

Especially those Steka who were imprisoned in the New Energy Company. Now Tommy's idea is to let them return to Steka's land, and then dismantle part of the border wall so that Steka can temporarily live on the border. Slowly integrate into human society.

"What's the matter honey?"

Selina asked, Tommy smiled and continued to look at Connor who was sitting in a park. He was holding a piece of bread and looked very uncomfortable. He had completely regretted it.

"It's nothing, I'm just thinking that these people probably won't change their views after experiencing something like this."

At this point one participant said directly.

"This is just a complete and utter drama. It was arranged in advance. The president has arranged everything in advance for us to make a fool of ourselves and then be defeated miserably."

Many people nearby were laughing at the participant, and a passerby came over and said.

"Guys like you don't know anything at all. You're only good if you can find a job. There's no need for your so-called strategies here."

The participant cursed and finally chose to quit. Tommy smiled and looked at the number of people who quit, which was up to 158 people. "It looks like some people are hanging on."

Tommy said, and found a channel. A man found a job, helping to unload goods in a school under construction. He seemed to be very strong, and a load of goods was about 10D.

I saw the man laboriously unloading the goods, but he moved very quickly. At 9 o'clock, half of the truck had been unloaded. He still had more than 80 grams of D on him. It seemed that this man could persevere.

But soon Selina was laughing.

"If he does this, he won't be able to last for a week."

Tommy was a little surprised, the couple planned to start going out to work.

"Why do you say that?"

Tommy didn't quite understand either, Selina said with a mysterious smile.

"You'll find out in the evening."

The whole day passed quickly, and Tommy and Selina started having dinner at around 7 p.m.

They found the channel of a man who was unloading goods during the day. The man was eating bread on the edge of a park. He looked shabby. He currently had more than 130 D in his money container, which was the most among all participants so far.

"It was really hit by you."

Tommy took one look at the man and knew why his wife said this morning that he couldn't even last a week. The man was too confident, so he unloaded 5 trucks of goods today and earned 50D. He also knew how to be thrifty and bought some quantities. Big tube full of food.

"I used to listen to some customers chatting in the store, so I know that this kind of manual unloading is very painful."

Selena said, because when it comes to mechanical unloading, although the machine is very efficient, it is also very expensive. An unloading machine plus operators will cost at least 100D per day.

But the manpower is different. A load of 5 to 10 tons per truck is used by many people. However, most people who do it can stop working after unloading at most two trucks a day, because it is very easy to hurt the body. Once there is a physical problem, the medical expenses will be high. Neither is enough.

Sure enough, the man started limping after he got up. He looked uncomfortable and always pressed on the area on his back. He worked hard during the day when unloading the goods. It seemed that there was no problem, but at night, muscle damage began to appear.

"Sir, you'd better go see a doctor."

The reporter reminded him, but the man gritted his teeth and decided to endure it a little longer. The man found a corner of the park, got some plastic bags to wrap around his body and planned to rest, but he got up soon and had no choice but to go to the hospital.

After a series of examinations, it turned out that the man had suffered multiple muscle injuries, especially the psoas muscle fibers that had been broken a lot. The man could only accept the treatment in pain.

At 9 o'clock in the evening, Tommy and his wife were dancing in the living room. Their cheeks were slightly red and they both drank some wine. When they came back, the man had given up and the medical expenses would be at least 200D.

Even because of this reckless action, the man will need to receive long-term treatment in the future.

Many others are no better, Selena said.

"The third day should be the most difficult time for them."

Tommy smiled and nodded. For most of the participants, the current situation has reached the cruelest second night.

Sure enough, the number of people who have given up has exceeded 200, and soon more than half of them will be there. The remaining people are struggling to support themselves, and most of them have very little money left.

Tommy tuned back to Connor's channel. He was still gritting his teeth and persisting. Half of the bread he made this morning was already missing. He looked very sad. Although his body was recovering, he would face another challenge to survive tomorrow.

At this time, the owner of the house came out and knocked directly on the door of the utility room.

"No more rent, please leave."

Connor didn't quite understand. He looked at the owner of the house in astonishment and asked in confusion.

"why?"

The owner of the house looked serious.

"Why are there so many?"

At this time, the owner's wife came out and spoke directly.

"You stole the jam from my kitchen."

Connor was stunned. It was true that he was very hungry when he came back, but the bread was hard to swallow. Finally, when he passed the kitchen, he saw a bottle of jam by the window, and he took the jam by accident.

A bottle of jam is not less than 3D, but for Connor who is suffering from hunger and cold, it is a treasure.

In the end, Connor had no choice but to turn around and leave. This area was considered a relatively good place in the entire slum area. It took Connor knocking on doors for a long time before he found a place to live.

"He's finished."

Tommy took a sip of wine. At this time, Selena turned on her phone. There was a heated discussion on some social media. These people who used to dress brightly and live a refined life in the upper class were better than most. People's ability to handle things is poor.

Even some ordinary people living in the urban area are criticizing this group of people because they are too self-righteous. The vows they made two days ago are in sharp contrast to the miserable desolation they feel now.

Apart from their academic qualifications, family background and connections, they have nothing and cannot even guarantee their basic survival.

In the past, this group of people stood at a high place, constantly scolding and laughing, looking at the people at the bottom, and constantly instilling in them the concept of not working hard, not being smart enough, and having no goals.

"Congratulations darling, everyone seems to have seen clearly."

Tommy said with a smile.

"Once this layer of hypocrisy is peeled off, they will have nothing left."

Tommy smiled and lit a cigarette. At this time, Connor fell to the ground, clutching his abdomen in pain. The reporter hurried forward, and then Connor was rushed to the hospital, and he finally withdrew.

According to the previously signed agreement, those who quit have handed over all their wages for the past year to the state, and the TV station has also announced everything. However, those who demonstrated outside the presidential residence did not, as they said, live at home. Too poor to open the pot.
