Burning, killing, looting, they call me a saint

Levi said calmly.

He didn't have much evidence, but this kind of thing didn't need any evidence because it was already so obvious that it couldn't be any more obvious.

The foreman named Zhang Ling completely treated him as a young and inexperienced man. After bringing him into the factory, he didn't even bother to pretend to be serious.

Fengzi was obviously not a naive person. She understood what Levi said and grasped the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands.

"They have such a hard life, why do they want to hurt their own people?"

“Because that’s how people are.”

Levi looked outside the cafeteria as he spoke.

The group of family members of the workers who came to ask for compensation were beaten by security guards holding sticks and driven out of the site.

But they still refused to leave. Instead, they knelt on the coal slag-covered ground, crying and shouting, and kowtowed towards the direction of what looked like the director's office.

But the manager named Xie, who was as fat as a ball and dressed neatly in a formal suit, just looked at them with contempt and cursed.

"You lazy bastards are looking for trouble! Don't you know how much work I have to do every day? You actually want to come to the field to cause trouble and ask for money! Don't say that the higher-ups didn't approve it! With your attitude, I won't give it to you even if I approve it! You bastards!"

After spitting and cursing, he turned around and never looked at the people kneeling on the ground again.

The workers who were passing by and saw this scene also stopped. Their expressions looked a little sad, a little indignant, but mostly numb.

Fengzi also saw this scene and her hands were shaking.

Levi was sighing in his heart that this game was indeed too realistic. Not only the graphics and sensory experience, but even the NPC's behavioral logic were perfect.

But you can't make money by trying to be realistic in fantasy works, and it's not appealing to people at all.

Levi really disliked it, especially this city.

Fengzi tried her best to look away from the people kneeling on the cinder ground, and asked with her head lowered.

"Should we go before they do anything?"

Levi did not answer immediately. His eyes did not move away from the group of humble people. No one knew what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, they just want to kill for money."

As he spoke softly, he also looked at the player panel in his mind.

[Advanced method: Your career advancement will be converted into experience points, and you can advance every 10 levels (the current way to gain experience is to accumulate money, the legal channel is 1:1, and the illegal channel is 10:1)]

[Level: 1 (16.4/1000)]

Originally, Levi thought that the game designed this upgrade mode to give players two paths to choose from.

One is a legal operation, which is time-consuming and laborious, but not a single cent is deducted.

The other is to start a killing spree.

No matter which of these two paths is chosen, Levi cannot consider it in his current situation.

But at this moment, a different idea suddenly came to his mind.

Since you want to speed through the main storyline, it naturally becomes crucial to upgrade as soon as possible.

Leader Zhang agreed with Li Wei to go down to the mine in the evening. It was a dark and windy night, which was of course the best time to do the work.

This also means that he is still free during this afternoon period.

Letting Fengzi stay in the cafeteria first, he staggered to the gate of the venue alone.

The group of people demanding compensation were still kneeling there. The security guards seemed to be too lazy to intervene as long as they did not step into the venue again, and did not continue to chase and beat them.

During lunch time, there were still people watching the excitement from afar, but once working hours started, the place became deserted and the families of the workers kneeling here seemed to be abandoned by everyone.

So when Levi approached, those people, whose faces were covered in dust and stained with tears and coal dust, noticed him.

In this world, apart from Feng Zi, Levi always had a smile on his face no matter who he communicated with, even when facing these miserable people.

"Everyone, I just entered this place today. Can I ask, if someone dies in the place because of work, how much compensation can a normal family get?"

Chapter 10 Blood-stained

This is clearly an inappropriate question.

It's obvious that you can't get the money now. You're already kneeling on the ground, and you still come here to ask how much you should have gotten.

If he met someone with a bad temper, he might slap Levi in ​​the face first.

After all, if I can’t beat the site manager and the foreman, can I still beat you?

But then again, those who can kneel here have all had their edges completely smoothed out, their eyes are numb and empty, and they are all weak and vulnerable.

The ten-year-old boy was also kneeling, he seemed to be here to ask for compensation for his father's death, along with the other adults.

There was silence in response to Levi's question.

But Levi was not in a hurry at all. He just squatted beside them. After a long time, a man with half an arm broken spoke.

"It's written in the contract you signed that if someone dies on the job, the factory will normally pay 30,000 yuan in compensation."

A normal worker here can earn a maximum of 100 a day, which is about a month. Although I don't know the purchasing power of the currency in the game, judging from the complexion, living conditions and clothing of these workers, this is definitely not a number that can guarantee that they will have enough food and drink.

Even so, the compensation for the death of a person is less than one year's salary.

"It's definitely not possible to get 30,000 normally, right?" Levi continued to ask.

The man with the broken arm seemed to think that since he had already spoken, it didn't matter whether he said anything else or not, so he answered with his head down.

"When I'm lucky, I can get 160,000 or 170,000 yuan, but when I'm unlucky, I can only get a little over 10,000 yuan."

"If you're lucky, you'll only get half of it." Li Wei smacked his lips. "If you're unlucky, don't even think about getting over 10,000. Aren't you guys not getting a penny right now?"

Faced with such words that only sounded sarcastic, these people's faces did not change at all, and they remained numb.

They seemed to have completely lost the ability to get angry, and begging was their last resort.

Levi shook his head and stood up.

"Brother, can we talk alone?"

The man with the broken arm was unmoved. He just knelt there like a clay sculpture, but Levi walked over forcefully, pulled him up and dragged him to the side.

The man wanted to resist and shake off Levi's hand, but a few light words made him stunned.

"I can help you get your money back."

They had come to a corner where no one would disturb them. After hearing what Levi said, the man's eyes were clearly filled with suspicion and distrust.

he asked tentatively.

"Do you have a special relationship with the director privately?"

Levi just shook his head.

"Don't worry about how I ask for it. You don't have any other options, right? I'm not asking you to give me anything first. I only have one request."

He stared into the eyes of the man with the broken arm.

"Whether I get the full amount of compensation back or not, I want 30% of it."

This request is not excessive, and it can even be said to be the conscience within conscience.

Even if they went to collect the compensation normally, they could only get half at most, but now Levi promised to give them the bulk!

The man with the broken arm looked at the young man in front of him with some disbelief. He didn't know how Levi had the confidence to get the money back.

But if it is really as Levi said, that 30% of the money will be shared only after the money is recovered, this is completely acceptable to people like them.

There is no harm in success or failure.

"Okay! I can agree to it for the others!"

However, after he agreed, Levi continued slowly.

"You don't just have to agree on behalf of the others. I need everyone to leave me a written agreement. Go back and find the others now. Tell them to stop wasting time kneeling there. Find some paper and a pen. Have someone who can write clearly write down the fact that I took 30% of the profits on paper, and then put his or her fingerprint on it."

The man with the broken arm just looked at him in surprise.

"What's the point? If you get the money, it will only go to you first and then be distributed to us. You decide how much to distribute. Why do we need to write a receipt?"

Levi had no intention of explaining to him and turned around and walked into the coal mine.

"Tonight, in the northwest corner outside the venue, one receipt and one payment. If you don't have a receipt, even if I get the compensation, I won't give you a cent."

Not long after Li Wei returned to the cafeteria, the families of the workers who were kneeling in front of the gate and making trouble dispersed.

Feng Zi, who had been looking out of the cafeteria, obviously saw all the interactions between Levi and those people.

"What did you say to them?"

"Comfort them to see the reality clearly and stop kneeling here and dreaming in vain. Instead of being beaten and scolded here, it is better to go back and lie down and wait for death."

Fengzi stared at Levi with her lips tightly pursed.

This time, she did not obey Li Wei's orders, but was extremely serious.

"626, some things are not something you cannot resist, so you don't resist them."

Levi didn't comment on her words. He just hid a dinner knife in his pocket and spoke lightly.

"Let's take care of our own business first."

The thick, low clouds in the sky gradually darkened.

They take the train back to the community at 8 o'clock. A small number of people who have no home will choose to stay in the dormitory on site.

"Xiao Zhao, let's go. It's time to go down to the mine. Today is your first day here and you've made a lot of money. You've been idle all day and your wages are basically for nothing."

Zhang led Li Wei and Feng Zi to settle down in the dormitory on the site, and finally took him down to the mine.

Li Wei followed behind Zhang Ling with a smile. Another foreman named Yan Li also carried a hoe and put out the cigarette in his hand.

Wearing helmets and flashlights, they descended into the dark mine.

The two foremen sandwiched Levi in ​​the middle, one in front and one behind, and began to go deeper. This place was complicated, like a maze. If there was no familiar person to lead the way, it would be easy to get lost in it.

Along the way, Zhang Ling had been chatting with Li Wei about family matters, asking about his family situation and why he became an illegal resident and came here to work as a laborer.

Levi responded perfunctorily at first, but after walking in the mine for more than ten minutes, he was too lazy to even speak.

The atmosphere became silent, and only three dull footsteps echoed in the quiet mine.

Zhang Ling tightly gripped the hoe in his hand. He felt that something was wrong in the atmosphere, but he did not feel nervous or uneasy.

He and Yan Li had done this more than once, and there had never been an accident. The most thrilling time was when a burly laborer hit his leg with a hoe when resisting.

That time he had to rest at home for a full six months, but fortunately his legs were not disabled.

It was from that time on that he learned his lesson and decided that he would never give these people a hoe again in the future.

And if a person is unarmed, no matter how strong he is, he cannot beat two adults with weapons!

The end of the mine could already be seen, and Zhang Ling felt that it was about time.

He smiled with yellow teeth, turned around and said the secret code that he and Yan Li had used for nearly seven years.

"After tonight, when you get off work tomorrow, I'll take you to a nice place and give yourself a treat."

"puff!"

He was only one word away from finishing his sentence.

After saying this, the two people who cooperated well with each other swung the hoes in their hands together and smashed the head of this inexperienced young man into pieces!

However, Zhang Ling looked at the knife that was inserted into his chest in disbelief!

The young man who was always smiling now had a calm expression as if he was looking at a dog on the roadside, and slowly pulled out the short blade that pierced his heart.

The splattered blood stained the dirty land and soaked it into the darkness that was too dark to look at.

Chapter 11 Director's Office

When Zhang Ling's body fell heavily to the ground, Yan Li stood there in a daze, with his eyes wide open, holding the hoe in his hand high!

It wasn't until Levi drew his sword and turned around that he finally reacted!
