The more Zhu Muyun refused, the more anxious Zhang Guanglin became. Just now, Zhu Muyun just said casually, and he was relieved of his trouble. In the matter of the electric light company, he believes that Zhu Muyun will definitely have a way. Zhu Muyun refuses now, he thinks that it should be Zhu Muyun who doesn't want to help.

"Director Zhu, you must help. These workers, organized and premeditated, could not cope with it with the power of the electric light company. If you don't get it right, there will be turmoil. Zhang Guanglin pleaded.

"You know, I'm only responsible for arresting anti-Japanese elements. The workers made trouble, and it was inconvenient to intervene. Zhu Muyun shook his head and said slowly.

"There may be anti-Japanese elements among the workers of the electric light company." Zhang Guanglin said.

"The electric light company is a British-owned company, and the owner is British, so it is very complicated to deal with. Well, I'll go check it out. Zhu Muyun finally made a "concession" and said helplessly.

Under Zhang Guanglin's repeated pleas, Zhu Muyun "reluctantly embarrassed" and said that he could go and see. Zhang Guanglin was overjoyed, with Zhu Muyun out of the horse, what else could not be done? Lao Tongcheng is not the place to talk, and after he had breakfast, Zhang Guanglin invited Zhu Muyun to his home.

The reason why he didn't go to the electric light company was because the company was too chaotic, and the siege of those workers made it impossible for him to get out. Zhu Muyun will go today, and I am also worried that it will affect Zhu Muyun's mood.

But after Zhu Muyun heard about it, he insisted on going to the electric light company. The electric light company is also on the cooperation road, not far from the military police detachment, and Zhu Muyun is there, which is more convenient for dispatching his subordinates.

Most importantly, Zhu Muyun's task was to assist Zhang Guanglin in investigating the anti-Japanese elements among the workers. To be precise, to investigate the Communist Party among the workers. Any organized strike will have the shadow of Communist Party activity behind it. However, intimidated by the power of the working class, the ruling class generally does not act against the leaders during strikes.

But once the situation subsides, it will be time to settle accounts after the autumn. Zhu Muyun's current job is also to look for clues, once the strike is over, all relevant personnel will be arrested.

"Director Zhu, the workers are full of emotions and are easy to be impulsive, and I am worried about your safety." Zhang Guanglin said worriedly.

"My people are all at No. 1 Cooperation Road, a phone call, and they will come over immediately, what are you afraid of? Besides, there are patrols. The French Concession is a place where the Fa is preached, and they dare to mess around? Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

The Guxing Electric Light Company is not far from the gendarmerie detachment. The gendarmerie detachment was at No. 1 Co-operative Road, and the Electric Light Company was at No. 22. If something happens to the electric light company, all it takes is a shout and the gendarmerie detachment will know.

But before going to the electric light company, Zhu Muyun still notified Zhou Zhijian and asked him to take the people from the second department to stand by outside the electric light company. At the same time, he brought a pistol, which he basically did not bring. His pistol was given by Shi Dongliang, a small Browning. Treating his own life, Zhu Muyun is more cautious than anything.

The Electric Light Company's building is a Renaissance-style building designed by the British design firm King Ming & Co. A total of three floors, concrete structure, red tile roof, exterior walls imitation granite stucco. There are dozens of rooms inside, enough to accommodate the management of the electric light company.

The three load-bearing columns at the corner of the street are concave square; The rest of the street columns, the lower first floor is half square, but the upper part is cylindrical, giving it a stable and varied feel.

The most striking is the top, a tower carved with a five-pointed star, with a dome in the shape of a roof, supported by four columns, stocky and heavy. Inside, each floor is more than four meters high, and the interior is covered with wooden floors, and the floor cage is composed of thick wooden squares.

Although this building has been built for more than 30 years, it still feels magnificent when you walk in. Zhang Guanglin's office is on the second floor, and before he enters it, he is already surrounded by people outside. Seeing Zhang Guanglin coming, he immediately surrounded him.

"Mr. Zhang, when will the company agree to our request?"

"Mr. Zhang, the rice jar at home is at the bottom, and you will be hungry at night."

……

"Fellow workers, I have made your request to Mr. Moore. The company is working on it, and the results will be available soon. Zhang Guanglin was so squeezed by them that he was almost out of breath.

Zhu Muyun was also squeezed out by them, he counted, and there were sixteen people surrounding Zhang Guanglin. Some of these sixteen people are really anxious. You can see it in their eyes. And some, like Zhu Muyun, although they are in it, in fact, they are more like bystanders. Or rather, they are the organizers.

The eyes are the windows to the soul, and what a person thinks in his heart can be seen from the eyes. A thief with a wandering gaze, always keeping his eyes on other people's money. And an agent, always keeping an eye on the entrance and exit, they will first look for a safe place to enter and retreat freely when they walk into any place.

One of them felt Zhu Muyun's gaze and glanced at Zhu Muyun. When he saw Zhu Muyun's appearance clearly, he quickly turned his head and whispered in the ear of a person next to him.

Soon, the crowd surrounding Zhang Guanglin began to quiet down. Zhang Guanglin persuaded them a few more words, and they prepared to leave.

"Mr. Zhang, since the workers have a demand, the electric light company should accept it. You see, is it written down everyone's requirements? When the time comes, wouldn't it seem more sincere to hand it over to Mr. Moore together? Zhu Muyun said suddenly.

"It's okay to ...... like that, do you think it's okay?" Zhang Guanglin didn't understand what Zhu Muyun meant for a while. But Zhu Muyun was invited by him, so he naturally turned his heart to himself. Presumably, there is nothing wrong with that.

"We are not just for our own benefit, but for the benefit of all our workers." One of them said suddenly.

"You represent the majority of workers, and if your demands are met, other people's demands will also be met." Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

"If you want to write, write about all the workers."

"Well, then, as representatives, write down your demands. Others ask for permission to come back tomorrow to register. Zhu Muyun said with a smile. The reason why he wanted to register was not to meet their demands, but to obtain information about these people.

"If you register today, I can represent Mr. Zhang and issue a temporary subsidy of 10 fiat currency per person." Zhu Muyun said again.

Ten fiat is not much, but it is definitely not less. At the very least, it can solve their urgent needs. There were a few workers, obviously tempted. These people are the ones who really encounter difficulties and have no choice but to make trouble. Besides, it is reasonable to register a claim, so why not?

"Workers, we can't fall into their trap. They are trying to divide and disintegrate us. ”

"Let you write down the requirements, is it a trap? So are you coming to the door like this, are you vexatious? Zhu Muyun said coldly. Originally, he wanted to get the information of these people, but now it seems that there must be a problem among them.

"Now the rules have changed, only the top ten registrations can receive ten fiat." Zhu Muyun glanced at Zhang Guanglin. If everyone had money, no one would be positive. However, only those in front of them can receive money, and they will immediately be divided into two factions.

Zhang Guanglin understood, turned around and went into the office, and took out a pen and paper. At the same time, Zhu Muyun took out a stack of fiat currency, who started to register, and distributed the money on the spot. This kind of money, Zhu Muyun will not save. What he wants is just information about these people.

"Just register our reasonable requests, what's there to worry about?" In the crowd, someone suddenly said.

"If you don't write down your requirements, how do we know, what do you want? There was no evidence, and Mr. Moore knew about it when he wrote it down in black and white. Zhang Guanglin also took the opportunity to say.

During this time, he was pestered by the workers every day. However, they were not asked to write the conditions themselves. He made the workers' demands to Moore, which he sorted out himself.

Although he didn't understand what Zhu Muyun meant, the hesitation of the workers must be something beneficial to him. He took advantage of the opportunity to do the work of the workers. Zhang Guanglin was secretly glad that after Zhu Muyun came, it was different. He had been passive before, but now, he has slowly mastered the initiative.

As long as one person begins to give in, everyone else will obey. Register your claim and you'll receive 10 fiat coins right away. When you go out, you can buy rice and vegetables, and you can eat a full meal at noon, who wouldn't want to? Those who have never been hungry will never know what it is like to be hungry.

It's just that there are two or three people standing aside, but they haven't registered. Zhu Muyun walked up to them and asked, "Why don't you go to register?" ”

"Now that we are registering, and we don't have any money to get it, what are we going to register for?"

"You registered, but for the benefit of the majority of workers, is it just for ten fiat currency? If it's just for the money, I can give it to you. Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

These three people, one of them, is none other than Gao Xiang, a former stevedore at Guxing Wharf. That is, Shi Xixia in the three places, the underground party who is ready to be arrested. At that time, Gao Gao Xiang received the news and evacuated early. That incident caused Shi Xixia to spend dozens of gold bars, and finally with the help of Zhu Muyun, he finally calmed down Li Bangfan's anger.

It's just that for some reason, he came to work at the electric light company again. Although his clothes have changed, even his hairstyle is different. But Zhu Muyun still recognized him at a glance.

"We don't want money, and we don't want to register." Gao Gao Xiang glanced at Zhu Muyun, immediately lowered his head, and said. He had actually recognized Zhu Muyun a long time ago, but he was afraid that Zhu Muyun would recognize him, so he didn't dare to look at Zhu Muyun.

"Are you workers in the electric light company?" Zhu Muyun asked.

"Of course it is." Gao Gao Xiang said firmly. In fact, the reason why they didn't want to register was because one of them was really not from the electric light company.
