After the money, she enslaved the president of the court, who had done justice. Finds the other two people who gave false testimony in court from a foreign land, blinds them and makes them eunuchs.
Now back in her homeland, she wants to buy back the justice that the city of Gülen did not give her back then with a billion dollars. She is willing to donate one billion dollars to Gülen City, but on one condition - kill Il. Long struggling in poverty in the city of Gülen people, shouting refused to Claire conditions, to maintain the city of Gülen "noble tradition", and finally could not withstand the fragility of the soul, abandoned the tradition, for the sake of the name of the "justice" to kill the il.
Act I
The Mayor, Ille, and the people of Gülen greet Claire at the train station. The characters talk about Gülen's transition from prosperity to poverty and emphasize the high hopes that the people of Gülen have for the rich woman to change the city for the better.
Claire's conversation with the conductor as she disembarks from the train demonstrates her view that "money can buy everything".
Claire's reminiscing with Ethel shows that Claire has old feelings for Ethel, and on the other hand, how much she hates him for abandoning her.
Claire brings a coffin. The episode in which the coffin appears is not a good one for everyone. This shows that Claire's purpose for returning here is revenge.
Claire and Eil return to the Conrad Village Woods to reminisce. Il sweet-talks and says some hypocritical nice things in hopes that Claire will donate money to the city of Gülen.
Claire dines with the Mayor and others at the Golden Apostle Inn and offers to donate a billion dollars to Gülen City, but on one condition, that she use the billion to buy justice for herself. She reveals her past in public when she was abandoned and framed by Il and forced to leave the country.
Act II
Scene at Il's house. Shows how everyone changes when they learn that Claire wants to buy justice back with a billion dollars.
The state of Claire's life alternates with the state of Ile's life and the changed state of life of the people of the city of Gülen with their inflated desires.
Il is horrified at the changes in the Gülen city people's desire to live a better life. "The more Gülen City prospered, the closer his death came." He asks the sheriff, the mayor, and the pastor for help, but none of them budge. When he comes to the pastor, the pastor finally recognizes that they are all vulnerable and tells Il to flee Gülen City.
Ile arrives at the station, and the people of Gülen City, knowing he is leaving, surround him. Though they say on the surface that they will not stop him and let him go, none of them move to make way for him. In the end, Iyer fell to the ground in despair.
Act III
The doctor, the principal - a healer of bodies and an indoctrinator of souls, goes to Claire and asks her to stop the deal.
The people of Gülen are becoming more and more materialistic, they are taking more and more credit, and they are having trouble paying it back, and "killing Il" is the solution to this problem. The people of Gülen, who were on the side of Il, began to blame Il. The day-to-day desire for prosperity and materialism made the people of Gülen abandon their "noble traditions".
Il finally realizes that the people of Gülen will kill him, and that the lure of money is too great a temptation for them, who have been in poverty for so long. Ile sees the human nature and is ready to die. The mayor sends Il a gun and tries to get him to kill himself, but Il refuses to do so.
He is willing to participate in the assembly of the group and let all of them decide whether he lives or dies. In the end, Il is sentenced to death to the cheers of the crowd. In the end, Il dies. Instead, they claimed to the public that he was too excited and died of heart failure.
In the end Claire is going back to Capri with Il's body. People cheered to see Claire off. Including Il's wife and children. They are indebted to Claire and rejoice in the life they now lead ......
As a young woman she threw herself wholeheartedly into passionate love, and Ile, having married a girl richer than she, not only deserted her, but set her up. She left the city of Gülen, pregnant with their child to be born, and subjected to the contemptuous indifference of the people of Gülen. Her child was sent to the Relief Society after birth and died before it was a year old. She, in turn, was forced by the world to live as a whore.
Later, she meets Tsahanasian, the owner of the oil fields, in a brothel and marries him, gaining great wealth. After Tsahanasian's death, she married one husband after another but for short periods of time. She was in a car accident and lost a leg, then her plane crashed in Afghanistan and all died, she was the only one who crawled out of the wreckage. Lost her right arm. Her leg and arm are made of ivory.
When she was dying, she returned to the city of Gülen with money, a half-true body, and a heart full of hate. She will use the money to buy back the justice that Gülen City owed her back then. She wanted to use her money to change the rules of Gülen City. She wanted to use her money to destroy the last bit of false "humanitarianism" of the people of Gülen City. She did it, and in the end, she left with the cold body of the man she had loved and hated her whole life. It was all part of her plan.
Her mind was already as cold as her ivory body. She lives for revenge, and when her greatest enemy turns into a cold corpse, how does she end her life?
The people of the city of Gülen ended with blood on every hand. Their prosperous lives were traded for the death of Il. Though they hide their inner weakness and their submission to money in the name of "justice".
There are a couple of moments in the text where Il collapses in despair in a crowd. Once at the station, where the crowd's submission to money is countered. In the end, the crowd cheered and sentenced Il to death, and Il's words, "Oh my God," show that the people of the city of Gülen have completely rebelled against the "noble tradition of humanism.
Forty-five years ago, the people of Gülen forced Claire out of her life with indifference and disdain. Forty-five years later, the people of Gülen killed Elle in order to "prosper".
Ile is guilty. But who can claim to be pure and innocent?
I didn't get into the context of the play. But there is enough of humanity unearthed in the play to make the heart flutter. The power of poverty is enough to destroy human life, and the temptation of money in poverty is enough to destroy human nature.
Today's society is not what it was forty-five years ago. Some time ago, I talked to a student about the topic of "indifference". He asked me, "Do you think the society is indifferent nowadays? I replied, "I don't think the environment I live in is very cold."
Later, I thought y about my answer. In fact, my answer was one-sided. There is no wind or waves in life, so naturally I can't talk about indifference. However, if one day meets something, the attitude shown by the people around you is what reflects human nature more.
"Bai Bai Li Li divorce event", some time ago in the network exploded pot. A few years ago, there was also "Yuan Shanshan out of the entertainment industry", "article, Yao Di cheating door". The netizens attacked these people. In fact, most of us are not aware of the situation and do not know those people. Entertainment news only shows us their side of the story, but all of them seem to be the embodiment of justice, hoping to punish the wicked and return justice to the world. They want to use their own "language" to make these people never turn around.
What we are calling for is real "justice and fairness"?
I think it's fortunate that they were able to get out of the public opinion storm without incident. I think it's a good thing that they came out of the storm without any problems. Then everyone who accused them of name-calling and attacked them with their voices was a hitman.
We can not in the so-called "justice" in the voice of the extinction of the real "moral".
El was guilty, and he was punished forty-five years later for a crime he committed forty-five years ago. But what about the people of Gülen? What about the sins of Clare, and who should be the one to end them?
(1)
Elle: My little goblin! That can't be done! It's been a long time since things were done. Life moves on.
Claire: Life moves on, but I haven't forgotten the past at all, Eir. I have forgotten neither the woods of Conrad's village, nor the barn of Peter's house; neither the bedroom of the old widow Poll, nor your heartless behavior. Now we are old, both of us; you have been debilitated, and I have been pierced to pieces by the surgeon's scalpel. Now I'm going to settle the score between the two of us. You chose your own path in life at the time, but you forced me to follow the one I took, and just now in the woods full of distant memories, in the woods where we had spent our teenage years, you said you wished that the past time could come back. Well, then, I'm letting it come back now, and I'm asking for justice. A billion dollars for justice.
(2)
Mayor: ...... We'd rather be poor forever than have blood on our hands.
(3)
Il: No one wants to kill me, but everyone wants that one person to kill me, so there will always be that one person who does.
(4)
Rev: Run! We are all weak people, whether we believe in God or not. Run! The bells of Gülen have declared that sinful behavior is about to begin. Run! Thou shalt not stay here to tempt us.
(5)
PRINCIPAL: Mrs. Tsahanasian! You are a woman who has been severely stimulated in love. You demand absolute justice. You remind me of an ancient heroine, Medea. We sympathize with you; we understand your feelings; but it is precisely for this reason that we feel obliged to advise you to abandon that evil idea of revenge and not to put us in an embarrassing position. Help these poor, weak, but virtuous people, and enable them to lead a more decent life, and show your kindness!
Claire: Kindness, gentlemen, is a matter of how to get more money for an ordinary woman millionaire; and with my means I can rearrange the order of the world. As the world has made a whore of me, I shall make a whorehouse of the whole world. If you want to dance but you can't afford it, then you'll have to stop dancing. You want to dance now. But only those who can afford it are entitled to dance. Now I'm paying. I want the city of Gülen to murder a man, and I want to take a man's body for prosperity ......

...... Money alone does not make a man happy.
(7)
It was a deep green sea. It's a magnificent sight there. You will stay there forever. A dead man accompanying a stone idol. Your love died years ago. But my love will never die. Yet it can no longer live either. It has slowly turned into an evil force, like me, like the dull-colored mushrooms in these woods and the vines that creep everywhere, spreading around my millions of pounds of household goods everywhere without limit. Its tentacles have now found you, to take your life, for your life belongs to me, forever. You have been caught by them now, and you are finished. You will soon become a shadow of the dead love I remember, a ghost that haunts that ramshackle house.
