As early as 150 years ago, Marx, the founder of socialism, said:
"Capital came into this world, and from head to toe, there was blood and something dirty flowing in every pore!"
"Once there is a proper profit, capital is emboldened.
With 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere; with 20% profit, it is active. ”
"If there is 50% profit, capital will be desperate, there will be 100% profit, they will dare to trample on all the laws of the world, there is 300% profit, they will dare to commit any crime, even the risk of being hanged!" 」
If turmoil and strife brought profits, it would encourage turmoil and strife, as evidenced by smuggling and the slave trade.
In the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, which lasted for two years and nine months, the Chinese Volunteer Army paid a huge sacrifice, and according to post-war statistics, the volunteer army lost a total of 115786 dead and 221264 wounded. It may be a fact that some people do not know that part of the volunteer army did die on the battlefield and another part of the sacrifice at the hands of our own people. During the Period of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, some traitorous businessmen in China were so shameless that they had reached such a point!
Let's take a look at how the capitalists did it back then, and what were the consequences?
1, Shanghai Dakang Pharmacy General Manager Wang Kangnian, a traitorous businessman, corrupted 85 state workers by bribery, prostitutes, etc., for the volunteer army ordered chloramphenicol, hair extinguishing powder and other 6 kinds of frontline urgently needed drugs, has been delayed and not delivered, the volunteer logistics department has urged its delivery 5 times, he actually sent the front line of cold and hot water bags, glass tablets, and even rusted medical equipment to the front line to cope, harming the treatment of the wounded and sick of the volunteer army. In addition, expired and spoiled drugs were sold to the volunteer army at a high price, earning 500 million yuan from the volunteer army at a time. As a result, thousands of volunteers on the front line ended up either crippled or resentfully killed without effective treatment. On February 28, 1953, Wang Kangnian was sentenced to death for his heinous crimes.
2, Li Yinting, the manager of the private Fuhua Electric Machinery Cotton Factory in Hankou, Wuhan, was originally responsible for making a large number of first-aid kits and triangle scarves for the volunteers, but he privately swallowed 10,000 kilograms of high-quality cotton used by the people of the central and southern districts to support the volunteers, and then got a lot of rotten cotton from the broken piles, garbage heaps and other places to be shoddy, and some were still picked from dead children. These rotten cottons and two hundred pieces of gauze, without bleaching and degreasing, without disinfection, were made into emergency kits and triangular scarves for the volunteers to pierce their wounds on the battlefield. While this black-hearted profiteer eventually made a huge profit of 1.8 billion, many wounded and sick volunteers on the front line were infected by their wounds and eventually died or became crippled. In the end, this evil businessman was sentenced to death by the people's government, ending his life of evil.
3. Zhang Xingen, a treacherous merchant from The Joint Beef Factory on Daming Road in Shanghai, and Xu Miaoxin, a treacherous merchant from Xu Fuji Beef Estate on North Shaanxi Road, went so far as to impersonate good yellow beef with water beef and horse meat during the period of canning beef for the volunteer army, and embezzled two or three billion yuan of people's property. In order to further squeeze the profits, these two profiteers even went to various meat stalls every day to buy about a thousand catties of stinky beef and bad beef mixed in, a total of 120,000 catties. Some of the beef stinks green, and in order to cover up, they coat the surface with a layer of cow's blood and pretend to be good beef to mix in, and many volunteers have been poisoned and sick after eating these bad beef. Eventually, the two men were also shot.
4. Zhao Longwei and Yi Zutong, treacherous merchants of Shanghai Xi Pharmaceutical, sent Wang Minzhuang to the East China Branch of the Chinese Pharmaceutical Company as a spy, stole national economic intelligence, and sold fake and bad drugs as good medicines to the Volunteer Army and the People's Liberation Army, obtaining huge profits of five to twenty-five times.
5. An Jingyuan and Liu Yunsheng, two profiteers of Jinan Shengchang Egg Farm, mixed more than 7,600 kilograms of rotten eggs into the production of egg powder in the volunteer army's compressed biscuits. The workers expressed their dissatisfaction and persuaded the two men, who were solely responsible for the fact that they waved their hands. The two traders made a huge profit of 2.1 billion.
6. Liu Shengxing, a traitorous merchant in Suzhou, made 30,000 kilograms of dried tofu for the volunteers, put five kilograms less salt and ten kilograms of soy sauce in each hundred kilograms, and did not dry the dried tofu, so that the first batch of 2,500 kilograms of dried tofu was moldy and rotten when it was transported to Changzhou. After the batch of dried rotten tofu was returned, he mixed it into the future goods and handed it over.
7. Hangzhou profiteers Tang Mengwei and Wang Defu, when undertaking to make biscuits for the volunteer army, exchanged secondary flour for good flour, and replaced baking soda flour with low-cost stone alkali. Such a cookie, after eating it, will be bitter throat.
8. Peng Xicheng, the deputy manager of Wuhan Daxing Rice Factory, secretly exchanged two thousand catties of moldy rice for good rice when processing rice to support the volunteer army.
9. Shi Liru, a traitor to the grain stack in Beijing Guangda Xingji, undertook to make more than 40,000 catties of pickled vegetables for supporting the volunteer army, and mixed more than 200 catties of sand into it.
10. A meat processing plant in Tianjin called Samsung Canning Factory, the processing of canned pork beef should be added to the dried meat as required, but the owner of the factory added an extra spoonful of broth to the less meat, and also replaced the fresh meat according to the contract with the rotten meat purchased at a low price. At the time of shipment, it was not delivered according to the required weight, and the three batches of meat provided by the factory between April and October 1951 were all delivered to the volunteers on the front line.
11. Hu Hengqing, a traitor in the standard military uniform shop on North Sichuan Road in Shanghai, undertook to make 35,000 pairs of military shoes for the volunteer army, because he cut corners and cut corners, the shoes he made were broken as soon as they were worn. If you think about it, the volunteer army charged in the ice and snow of North Korea, how to fight when wearing such shoes?
12. Wuhan profiteers Zhou Zexin and Liu Wenqing undertook 70,000 shovels for the People's Liberation Army and the Volunteer Army, of which 24,300 were made of gasoline drum iron plates in violation of the contract. This kind of shovel bends when it is digging fortifications.
13. Zhu Licheng, a traitor to Nanjing's global automotive materials industry, undertook the volunteer army auto parts, and he bribed various old parts from the old goods stalls to pass off as new parts. Someone advised him: "Bad carburetors will go wrong in cold North Korea, and if something goes wrong, how can you get a delay in military transportation?" Zhu Licheng only said: "Anyway, it is not used here, what about him?" ”
14. Yang Wenyun, a traitor to the Shenyang Wenyun Iron Factory, contracted the snow chains of the cars used by the volunteers, and raised the processing fee under various pretexts, and when the volunteers used them, they found that seven of the ten snow chains were waste, making the logistics transportation of the volunteers in Korea more difficult!
During this period, there were many evil capitalists who made black money with their consciences, and finally were sentenced to death by the state. These unscrupulous businessmen, the volunteers on the front line for us to shed blood, sacrifice, guard the gate of the country for us, your conscience is eaten by dogs? It is a crime to be able to do it to the volunteers! If our warriors can't even trust and rely on our own people, then who can we afford? Whether in peacetime or wartime, criminal businessmen must be severely punished in order to ensure the physical and mental health of the people and maintain social stability.
