CHAPTER 959 THEY LEARNED TO RETALIATE
"We're going on strike!” Their thunderous voices made Liu Chao's ears numb.
He was stunned.
These low level workers had been silent all these years. When did they learn to retaliate?
And how dare they go on strike!
Liu Chao became angrier and angrier and seemed almost about to blow. He wanted to catch their leader to make an example of him.
But when he looked around at them, he found that these miners were surprisingly united and clearly determined to cause trouble.
In the past, whenever he looked at them, they would avoid making eye contact out of fear and anxiety.
But today...
Not a single one of these miners shrank back!
They were rebelling!
They were retaliating!
He was here to take over the eighth mining zone today, and all the overseers of the other mines were watching him. If word got out that he experienced a strike and was threatened by these workers, he would lose his reputation in Xishan.
"Does everyone want to die?!" yelled Liu Chao as he picked up a stick and stared ferociously at them.
He had brought a few dozen men with him. They all picked up their weapons and prepared to make a move.
The miners continued to stand their ground. They took a step forward with an air of determination at the same time.
Both sides were tense!
Jiang Ning stood at a distance with Lin Yuzhen by his side while she looked terribly worried.
"Will anything happen to them?"
"Nothing will happen to them,” said Jiang Ning, "It's not difficult to get rid of trash like those guys over there, but it's hard to teach the miners to retaliate and fight for their rights.”
Everyone was born equal and no one deserved to be bullied. Society could only run well if everyone respected each other.
Jiang Ning had been a firm believer of this all along.
All work was equal, and low level laborers deserved even more respect!
"If those men hit the workers..." Lin Yuzhen was still concerned. Liu Chao had so many men and looked like they fought often. How could regular people go against ruffians like them?
She didn't want to see Hua Sheng or anyone else get hurt.
"Don't worry," said Jiang Ning calmly, "They might not be the unlucky ones today.
There's nothing for you to worry."
Lin Yuzhen felt a lot less nervous when she heard Jiang Ning's words. He never lied to her.
SWOOSH!
The atmosphere became more intense! owns all © content.
Liu Chao finally couldn't stand it any longer.
He scoured the place and stared at the one who shouted the loudest before pointing at him, "You, come over here!"
"You think I can't tell that you instigated the rest to make trouble here?"
Liu Chao was uncertain of the outcome if they were to make a move because these workers were incredibly determined. He only had a few dozen men on his side, while the few hundred miners in front of him weren't backing down at all.
In the past, he could rely on his notoriety and viciousness to intimidate them. Why was it useless today?
All he wanted to do now was to catch one of them to make an example of him!
Number 5 walked over from within the crowd. He yelled loudly as he glared at Liu Chao, "What do you want?"
He had a burly frame and a deep voice which sounded powerful!
Liu Chao was strangely intimidated by just one shout.
Who was this?
Liu Chao's heart trembled suddenly.
Judging from Number 5's physique and gait, he couldn't be an ordinary person. This man was definitely a martial artist!
Did Zhou Zhenghu's eighth mining zone have such people?
"I wasn't talking about you!" Liu Chao gritted his teeth and started yelling again as he pointed in another direction as he found a much shorter man in the crowd
who only came up to most people's shoulders.
"You! I'm talking about you! Get over here! I'm going to teach you a lesson!” he bellowed viciously.
The people made way for the short man to walk out. Liu Chao's eyes narrowed even more violently.
