If the sound lifts the car curtain.

He stretched his neck and looked forward.

I can't see what's going on.

Only see a lot of people.

There was also a tumult of voices.

So she and the fourth master got off the carriage.

As a result, he got off the carriage and was stunned by the situation in front of him.

I saw in front of a dark, like ants, surrounded the road.

The crowd was full of all the places around where they could settle down, and there was no end at all.

There's no place to stay.

Not to mention the carriage going through the middle, it was impossible.

After stopping the horse, Su Peisheng said, "master, I'll go to the front to inquire about it and see what's going on."

The fourth master gave a faint "um" sound, which was accurate.

After a while, Su Peisheng came back frowning.

I only heard him say, "master, why are so many people in front of me? When I inquired, more than 20000 people gathered there."

"Who are they?" Asked the fourth master.

"Suzhou's textile industry is relatively developed." Su Peisheng pointed to the surrounding houses and said, "this area is full of cloth mills and silk weaving workshops. Those gathered here are all the kickers and machinists in this area, as well as all kinds of craftsmen. Because of their low wages, they are not only exploited and oppressed by the Baotou workshop, but also..."

with this, he dare not say any more.

The fourth master saw his appearance of wanting to speak but stopped, and ordered: "say it."

"They are also closely controlled by the court." When Su Peisheng spoke, he hung his head and did not dare to look into the eyes of the fourth master.

"The court? Why has he never heard of it? "

If the sound then the eye light slightly turns.

It seems that the local government in order to protect the black hat, this bad situation to hide.

"The slave didn't know. Anyway, according to the craftsmen, their resistance never stopped in order to increase the Industrial Bank and improve the treatment. There have been several times such a kind of" Xie struggle ". This time, it is considered as the largest one

"And this time, the reason is that a craftsman was fired after taking a few more days off to take care of her newly born wife. As the pillar of the family, the craftsman lost his job and financial resources, and the craftsman threw himself into the lake to commit suicide, which caused a collective protest. " Su Pei is very popular.

If you don't understand the meaning of "Xie", he asked, "call Xie?"

Su Peisheng explained: "call Xie is the Suzhou dialect, that is to say stop work."

"Oh." If you understand, it's a collective strike.

As Su Peisheng said, it was too common in Qing Dynasty.

In the Qing Dynasty, servitude was deeply rooted. Many servants, servants and workers had no protection of their interests.

Many people, in order to earn money to support their families, work hard for aristocratic families, day and night, but only take a meagre amount of ICBC.

He was on the edge all day and was fired if he was not careful.

This is relatively light, serious, but also suffer from skin and flesh.

What's more, if you're not careful, you'll die.

After listening to Su Peisheng's words, the fourth master's eyes fell on the dense crowd and walked towards the crowd.

Ruoyin and Su Peisheng followed.

As we approached, we heard the craftsmen holding banners and saying words of protest.

"Against dismissal without reason!"

"Against oppressing craftsmen!"

"Against exploiting craftsmen!"

Such protest slogans are like thunder and thunderous. They have the momentum that thousands of people can not resist. They are vast and magnificent.

The whole earth was shaking.

If the sound hears the eardrum all straight to tremble.

You know, there were more than 20000 people protesting at the scene.

This posture is more than half of the people who led the female protest last time.

But the order of the scene was no worse than that of her.

It can be described as neat.

It can be seen that their purpose is only for the benefit and survival, and there is no intention of insurrection, nor is it involved in other things.

Well, it must be a collective strike that has been planned for a long time.

It is by no means ordinary people who can plan more than 20000 people in such a neat and orderly way and let them obey their orders.

Ruoyin is suddenly a little curious about what kind of person is behind the scenes planning.

When Ruoyin was curious, a man in a black robe on the right side of the highland said in a loud voice: "those imperial court officials have tens of taels of salary in a month, nine grade sesame officials, and three taels of silver a month. The officials who no longer enter the stream have about two liang silver a month. "

"And most of us work nine hours a day, and we are only 20 Wen less."

"On the market, 10 Wen for a liter of rice and 20 Wen for a catty of noodles. This is not even the cost of oil and salt. The money for making clothes with cotton and cotton is not enough to support ourselves after a hard day's hard work. How can we support our family?""If anything happens, the family will fall apart."

"Therefore, we must fight the government and the court to the end this time."

"What we protest for is the fate of the working class in the Qing Dynasty."

"Good! Well said There was a chorus of chorus from the crowd.

If the sound smacks, nine hours, it's eighteen hours.

So, six hours of rest a day.

Apart from meals and housework, I'm afraid there are only three or four hours of sleep.

"When! When! When

I don't know where the sound of a stone pounding.

Ruoyin looked up and saw that the man said impassioned words, he held a hammer, and was hammering a tall stone tablet.

On the stone tablet, it says "never forbid the mechanic to call Xie Bei".

Out of curiosity, Ruoyin casually asked the next woman: "elder sister, how did this stone tablet come from?"

The woman looked up and down at Ruoyin and said, "girl, you are from other places. This stone tablet is the stone tablet that we workers called Xie Shi a few years ago. The stingy workshop Baotou Gong asked the local government to intervene. The government took the money from the contractor and forced us to resume work. For this reason, we set up this "permanent ban machine maker named Xie Bei."

"Oh." If the sound nodded, said to understand, "who is the man who hammered the stone tablet?

"He is the mechanic in our textile workshop. If there is a problem with this piece of machinery, he can't repair it well. Moreover, his family used to open a martial arts school, but later it declined, so he became a mechanic. By the way, the worker called Xie, which was also organized by him."

Smell speech, if sound Mou light slightly turn, and then Dynasty woman humanity: "thank you for telling."

Ruoyin heard that the man was the organizer, he stretched his neck and looked at it carefully.

I saw the man holding about 50 Jin weight of black iron long hammer, still hammering the stone tablet.

The hammer body is very exquisite.

After a few hammers, the stone tablet is already crumbling.
