Heaven's Formula

At this moment, there was an uncoordinated noise from downstairs.
There was a scream or two in between.
Xia Fan couldn't help frowning, and when he was about to go downstairs to check the situation, an attendant knocked on the door. "Your Excellency, we caught a half-beast, and she said she was looking for you."
5 Thirty Chapters of Struggle Strategies
Apart from Momola, there is no second half-beast in Azure Fort that will come to him.
Looking at Catwoman's disheveled hair and bluish cheeks, Xia Fan asked in surprise, "What happened just now?"
"It's nothing." She wiped a trace of blood from the corner of her mouth, muttered and sat down, "I've been used to this kind of treatment for a long time."
"It was probably beaten by the guards." The dragon girl leaned over and whispered, "The more important the place in Azure Fort, the less you want to see half-beasts. She probably wanted to break in after being refused entry, so she got up with the guards." conflict."
Xia Fan suddenly realized that this might be his negligence.
Although he had told the attendant who was in charge that he must tell him if someone came to visit, he didn't say that the other party might be a demon.
After all, this is not Jinxia City.
The squires and guards were not his either.
"Sorry, I forgot that your status is special, so I didn't specifically tell them." Xia Fan said proactively, "This situation will not happen next time."
Momoola looked up at Xia Fan, and there seemed to be a flash of surprise in her eyes, but soon she turned her head away, "I don't really care, you don't need to worry about me. I just came here to know, you go Is what you said last time true?"
"Can you come to me if you encounter any unsolvable problems?" Xia Fan had already guessed her reason for coming—or, it was only this reason that made her prefer to be beaten and enter the temporary residence area for foreign envoys. "Of course it's the truth, otherwise I wouldn't let you in."
"Is there another problem at the factory?" Li asked with concern.
"The supervisor expelled those people from the Pagoda Garden last time on the grounds that they were lazy at work and corrupted the atmosphere, but they never took a break at all. Even in order to ensure the number of working days, they only returned to the factory after a day off. No grounds for expulsion!"
Catwoman looked a little excited.
"Not only that, but the younger brother in charge threatened that if anyone dared to help these people, they would have to leave the factory together! Although everyone was indignant, they didn't dare to argue with Gore. After this matter is settled, it is tantamount to a sentence If they are executed, if they are injured, there will be no factory to hire them!"
"In my opinion, this is nothing but blatant revenge. You are a big customer of Pagoda, and the manager dare not offend easily. One word is more useful than ten thousand words about us. I hope you can help them and let them The manager withdrew his dismissal decision and paid out this month's salary in full."
"This..." Li looked at Xia Fan in embarrassment, not knowing what to answer for a while.
Olina snorted even more, "I said Miss Momola, did you make a mistake? We never bought a bottle of jam in Baiguoyuan, so how could we be its big customer? Besides, that If the manager can retaliate against you once, he can retaliate countless times, so what's the use of Ambassador Xia's help once? You can't win this matter from the beginning."
Momola was stunned, "But I heard that you want to establish a commercial route to transport the drunken jam to the east for sale..."
The others looked at each other.
Only Xia Fan laughed out loud. It was obvious that Baiguoyuan used its status as the ambassador of the East as a gimmick for commercial bragging.Even if he doesn't buy a bottle, just going to the factory to look around can create an advertising effect.Of course, the object of the promotion is not the employees in the factory, but other customers, but it may be heard by people around when bragging, and then it becomes a rumor that he is a big customer.
"No, I didn't say that, nor did I plan to."
"So...you can't help us, can you?" Momola's expression quickly dimmed.
Although she didn't say anything, everyone could see that she actually had quite a lot of expectations before she came.
"Olina is right. I can help you once, but I can't help you next time. If this matter is only entrusted to external forces, the outcome is already doomed."
"I..." She pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something more, but in the end there were only a few simple words, "I'm sorry to bother you..."
After that, she stood up and wanted to leave the room.
"But I didn't say that this matter cannot be resolved." Xia Fan added.
Momola stopped in her footsteps, "What do you mean?"
"I won't stay here forever, and you will." He blinked. "As long as you have the ability to deal with the injustice imposed by the factory, you can really change this status quo."
"This...how is it possible." Momoola said with a look of disbelief, "Everyone needs to pay for food and clothing, and whether they can fill their stomachs depends on the boss's face. If protesting is useful, everyone would have done it a long time ago. gone."
"You don't want them to attack the boss, instead?" Olina coughed twice, "Jinxia has this strength, but they don't. Violating the law will attract street police and defense forces."
"Simply protesting is indeed useless, but you have also underestimated your own worth." Xia Fan poured a cup of tea and pushed it to the table, "I can't help directly because it is meaningless, but I can teach you how to solve this problem One problem, and even solve most of the problems in the future. How about it, do you want to learn?"
Momoola stared at him blankly for a long time, and then slowly returned to the table and sat down, "Is it really possible?"
"The difficulty is not whether it can be done, but that once you do it, there will be no possibility of turning back on this road." Xia Fan said frankly, "You will also be pushed to the cusp because of this, and your life will be completely different from what it is now. life. If you feel that the status quo is bad enough to change, it’s never too late to do it.”
"If there is a worse life than now, it must be in hell, right?" Momola said in a deep voice, "I want to learn, please tell me."
……
In the evening, Catwoman, wrapped in a cloak, returned to the shanty town.
A group of people have been waiting for a long time.
Seeing her come back, everyone hurriedly gathered around and couldn't wait to ask, "Momora, what do you say over there? Will the big customers stand up for us?"
"While you were away, Gore whipped two more people, saying that they had close contacts with Lars and Mollier before, and they were suspected of helping them."
"This matter can't be allowed to go on endlessly. Wouldn't it be possible for them to use punishment at will if they have a little doubt in the future?"
"Yes, if that lord is really a foreign envoy, he should be able to make the boss change his mind!"
Momola took off her cloak and hood, and shook her head slightly, "That man...Xia Fan won't negotiate directly with Baiguoyuan."
The atmosphere suddenly sank.
"So we can only watch Morrill and the others die?"
"Or, let's go to the steward to protest together." Someone said angrily, "Last time, there was only Momola alone. This time, we will find more people. I don't believe that Gore dares to arrest everyone and whip them all."
This statement received many echoes.
"A dozen people are not enough, and they are not very useful." Momola shook her head.
"Momora?"
"According to Xia Fan, we have to attract at least [-]% of the employees in the Pagoda Factory. Only when this number is reached can the factory be paralyzed." She said in a condensed voice while recalling Xia Fan's words, "Although the factory is in control Our food and clothing, but we also determine the operation and survival of the factory. It is not those machines that produce jam, but our hands-once we unite and declare closure unanimously, Pagoda will face huge losses. Protests will not Let those ruthless stewards look at us more, only a real loss of interests can make the other party feel threatened."
Chapter 531 Starfire
After listening to Momola's narration, everyone fell into silence.
For a while, there was only the crackling of firewood burning in the iron barrel.
The swaying firelight casts shadows on people's faces with uncertain light and shade, just like everyone's mood at this moment.
After a while, the middle-aged man who greeted Momola first said in a low voice, "I am willing to do this. But it is impossible to recruit [-]% of the hired workers."
"Yes." The others couldn't help but echo, "If you don't go to the factory, you won't even have your daily rusks. What if Baiguoyuan refuses to accept it?"
"If you can't find another home, everyone will starve to death."
"And do we really have the ability to shut down factories? Can they hire people?"
Hearing everyone's uneasiness, Momola felt the same way.
In fact, this was also her doubt when facing Xia Fan.
No matter how you look at it, hired workers are the most humble and vulnerable group of people. They are precarious and depend on the factory for their lives. Compared with those gangsters, their only difference is that they do not want to commit crimes. Other than that, their status and reputation are basically the same. level.
After all, who has the ability to live a good life, who will come to be a hired worker?
We all had no way out to get to where we are today.
But according to Xia Fan's words, they are not really that insignificant, they just haven't realized their own strength yet.
"On this point, the ambassador is willing to help." Momola replied, "He can take part of the money to ensure that the strikers can eat bread."
Everyone was in an uproar.
"What? Are you sure?"
"Doesn't this mean that if we don't go to work, we still have something to eat?"
"Then what's good for him? Isn't this a waste of money!"
Momola shook her head, "I'm not sure about the ambassador named Xia Fan, but I can still trust the half-beast Miss Li beside him. She said that in the Eastern Continent, half-beasts and humans are protected by the same law, and Employed workers are one of the most important components of a city, and their salary level will not be much worse than that of ordinary officials."
Everyone looked at each other.
This really made them unimaginable.
After all, in the Holy Wing Islands, those who can mix with the lord, even if they are not descended from dragons, their status is much higher than that of ordinary people.
“They also said that education is not the privilege of the upper class, and that workers also need to receive comprehensive education. It’s not that we don’t have the ability to learn, it’s just that this qualification was taken away by the factory.”
"The place you mentioned... I'm afraid it's not the kingdom of heaven."
someone muttered.
"Actually, it wasn't like this at the beginning. The East called half-beasts demons, and dragon descendants are also demons. As long as they are demons, they will be ruthlessly hunted down and killed. The situation is even worse than ours. But after a desperate struggle, their treatment There have been earth-shaking changes, so we have to fight and use practical actions in exchange for fairer treatment!"
Momola had never been to the East, but there was a convincing force in the words of the half-beast girl.Thinking about it now, it's probably because the other party is obviously of the same kind, and the temperament displayed in every gesture is far from that of a half-beast like her.
It was as if Li had really experienced these things.
The flame in the barrel seemed to be a little stronger.
"Is it all right to go on strike?"
"Yes, as long as we let go of the work in hand, the factories will realize their mistakes. Because only in this way can their interests be truly shaken!"
"Then what about hiring another person in charge?"
"It's too late." Momola's thinking became more and more clear, "It is difficult to preserve the drunken fruit for more than three days in this weather. If you don't make jam in time, all of them will rot. We must first unite as many people as possible." , and then take action on the day when the new goods arrive in Hong Kong. If more than [-]% of the people can be recruited, Baiguoyuan will not be able to take care of it in three days. In the face of such a loss, he will negotiate with us."
"The next purchase will be two days later." The middle-aged man said, "I estimate that there are between 700 and [-] employees in Baiguoyuan, mainly divided into movers, production workers and packers. We must recruit them all. Some people are not enough."
"I can go find the horn, he is very prestigious among the movers, and he is a half-beast like me, so he should stand on my side. But that's not the point..." Momoola said here and looked around the crowd, " The key to this matter is not how difficult it is, but your thoughts and determination. I don’t want to see innocent people being flogged again. I don’t want Lars and Mollier to happen again. I don’t want to be trampled under my feet anymore! What about you?”
"Miss Momola, we're with you!"
"I can contact the Packers, their shack is next door to us."
"If you can kill the arrogance of the steward, that's not bad, I've already disliked them!"
"That's right, the worst thing is to quit your job."
The worries of the daily rations were relieved, and everyone's response was obviously much more enthusiastic.
"Very well, then it's a deal!" Momoola said with her tail raised, "Let's contact people first, and keep quiet for now. Wait until the day when the cargo ship arrives at the port, and then act together. If Baiguoyuan doesn't admit its mistakes for a day, we will Do not return to work for a day!"
"If you don't admit your mistakes for a day, you won't resume work for a day!"
"If you don't admit your mistakes for a day, you won't resume work for a day!"
The flames surged violently, and countless sparks exploded in the barrel, as if witnessing their oath.
……
"What exactly do you want to teach Momola?" Olina Okan stared at Xia Fan and said, "This is a pool of muddy water, there is no need for you to step into it."
Momora's departure did not interrupt everyone's discussion on this matter, especially the dragon girl, who expressed difficulty in understanding Xia Fan's approach-in her opinion, everyone's ultimate goal is to get in touch with the Son of the Holy Spirit, and then save the ice. Ning Wanjun in the seal.As for how the employees in the factory are doing, no matter how you look at it, it has nothing to do with saving lives, and it is easy to cause trouble for themselves.
"Is helping innocent victims count as stepping on muddy water? I don't think so." Li folded his hands on his chest and said, "If everyone is indifferent to the plight of others, you can't get together the tuition for your brother, right?"
Olina choked immediately.
That was definitely something she couldn't refute.
Although she also provided Xia Fan with a dedicated express delivery service, Longnu knew in her heart that the value of two thousand gold kerns was much higher than this price.
"I'm at least... a dragonborn..."
"But in Qiguo, they all belong to demons." Li directly cut off the topic.
"Okay," Xia Fan smoothed things over, "I know that you are actually worried about the rescue plan, not that you have no sympathy for Momola and the others, otherwise you wouldn't come out to testify when I talked about Jinxia's changes No one can guarantee whether this will happen, but as long as a kindling is planted, it will become a prairie fire sooner or later, which is why I decided to help them."
He paused at this point, "In addition... in the cargo ship entry and exit records provided by Latherin, there is also a place that I am more concerned about."
"Oh? What is it?" Li asked.
Xia Fan showed the list that he had been looking at just now in front of the three of them, "Here - Baiguoyuan has also registered for Eastern Voyage."
Chapter 532 Secret Contact
"Going to the east? Doesn't it make sense?" Li Lue was a little surprised, "Didn't that steward still use us as a publicity for opening up eastern trade routes?"
"No...it's not impossible." Olina pondered for a moment, "First of all, we don't know the composition of Baiguoyuan. Our own shipping arrangements are also normal, especially since this voyage has nothing to do with the drunken fruit trade."
Baiguoyuan has sea-going ships and is capable of ocean navigation, so someone arranged for this trip to the east, and the matter itself is not complicated.
"Then which kingdom did it go to?" Li asked.
"It's not Qiguo anyway." Xia Fan shrugged, "Let's split up tomorrow. Olina and I will investigate the details of these business groups, and the hired workers will be handed over to Li and Qianyan. What do you think?"
"You wouldn't attribute the church robbery to Baiguoyuan just because of this, would you?" Qian Yan pointed out bluntly, "No matter how harshly they treat the hired workers, they can't be used as evidence in the case."
