Traveling through Great Qin: Father Qin Shihuang!

Zhao Shu was taken aback, the various factories in Daqin had now been handed over to those businessmen to manage, and all the affairs of the workers were naturally handed over to those businessmen to handle.

"My lord, you'd better ask yourself, we won't tell them if we ask."

The guard shook his head and said.

Zhao Shu nodded, then got out of the carriage and walked in front of the workers.

"Everyone, I am the internal history of the Great Qin Zhisu, and I am also the Sikong of the Great Qin Shang Department!"

Zhao Shu stepped forward and first introduced his identity.

When the workers heard the words, they immediately raised their heads, a gleam of light flashed in their eyes, and the expressions on their faces became agitated.

"Everyone, get up first, the ground is hard, you can tell me anything you have."

As Zhao Shu said, he personally stepped forward to help a worker who was kneeling in the front.

"Lord Sikong, you have to decide for us!"

At this moment, the workers began to cry bitterly, shouting over and over again to let Zhao Shu decide for them.

"Everyone, don't get excited, tell me what problem you have encountered first."

Zhao Shu calmed down the emotions of these Qianshou, and casually asked about their situation.

"Lord Sikong, it's like this..."

The person who was supported by Zhao Shu just now wiped away his tears, and then told the whole story.

It turned out that when those factories were still under the management of the Ministry of Commerce, because of Zhao Che's request, the Ministry of Commerce gave them very good benefits.

Not only is the salary stable, but there are also various rewards from time to time, which can be described as a job that everyone envies.

But since the factory was converted from public to private, those businessmen don't care about the thoughts of these workers like the imperial court.

Of course, most businessmen dare not do this. After all, the benefits of the factory are there. Even if they don't do anything, the factory will still make a lot of money.

However, there are always some people who are not greedy enough.

These workers are employees of a cement factory and an instant noodle factory.

Both factories were accepted by the same businessman named Cai Yuan.

This Cai Yuan is not a well-known businessman in Xianyang, but his luck is good, he took away two profitable factories at once.

Cai Yuan also hopes to rely on these two factories to grow his business bigger and bigger, and it is best to become one of the best businessmen in Xianyang.

Therefore, in order to improve the efficiency of the factory, Cai Yuan immediately reformed the rules and regulations of the factory after accepting the two factories.

The first is Dianmao. The original start time of the factory was directly advanced by an entire hour, and the end of get off work time was also half an hour late.

The second is the food. Originally, the factory provided two meals, but Cai Yuan directly reduced it to one meal. In order to save these workers from wasting time eating, even the meals were made very unpalatable.

The time for eating was only given a quarter of an hour. The original sumptuous meal was now only used to fool people with some stale vegetables.

It's fine to say that it's just that. After all, these workers were born in poverty.

Even so, Cai Yuan still felt that it was not enough, so he began to reform the factory. All workers over the age of 35 were fired and replaced with younger ones.

Those younger than twenty were also fired, and even all the female workers in the entire factory were fired by him, on the grounds that they were not active in their work.

It is already too much to say this, so many workers may have jointly rushed to the commercial department to file a complaint, how could it be because of such a small matter?
After the workers in the factory were fired for rectification, Cai Yuan started his own crazy exploitation.

If there is any accident in the factory, all the losses caused will be doubled by the workers.

A huge amount of tasks are set every day, and if they are not completed, they will not be allowed to leave work, and they will not be paid for processing.

Workers are sick and ask for leave, three days of wages are deducted, and they do not attend full attendance.

Workers who are late for work will be fined and full attendance will be deducted.

In this way, in less than half a month, the full attendance of everyone in the entire factory was deducted by Cai Yuan with various reasons.

There are countless fines and other things, and the workers are also stunned.

Good guy, if you know, I am here to work for you to earn money, but if you don’t know, I am here to do charity for you.

After a month of hard work, people are exhausted, but the wages have not increased at all, and even have been reduced by more than half. If they are unlucky and suffer from illness for several days in a row, they will have to pay him back after a month.

Finally, the workers in the factory couldn't take it anymore, and some people suggested that they didn't want to work. After all, there are so many factories in Daqin and they are recruiting people everywhere, so they don't necessarily have to waste time here.

When Cai Yuan saw this scene, he also panicked. Before Yingzheng expanded another [-] cement factories, it was a time when there was a shortage of people. If these workers were gone, wouldn't he be unable to recruit more people?

Therefore, in order to retain these workers, Cai Yuan took another measure.

Anyone who resigned from the factory must compensate for the losses in the factory, and the amount is as high as ten months' wages.

Good guy, these factories have been established for less than ten months, and Cai Yuan dares to open his mouth and ask for ten months' wages as compensation.

This guy Cai Yuan is inhumane, but his method works. Anyway, since it was implemented, the workers in the factory dare not resign. Even if they are reluctant, they can only endure it.

Finally, some workers were dissatisfied with Cai Yuan's oppression, so they thought of a way to come to the Ministry of Commerce for help, and only hoped that Zhao Shu could seek justice for them.

At this time, after listening to these workers' narration, Zhao Shu felt angry.

No wonder Daqin hated businessmen so much before. In the final analysis, it was because they could do anything shameless for a little profit.

"Don't worry, I will help you decide this matter, and I will have someone call that Cai Yuan here!"

Zhao Shu assured the workers present, and then ordered someone to find Cai Yuan.

Not long after, Cai Yuan was sitting opposite Zhao Shu in the lobby of the Ministry of Commerce, but there was not much panic on his face.

"Cai Yuan, are you convicted?"

Zhao Shu gave a loud shout and glared at Cai Yuan in front of him.

"Lord Sikong, I don't know what crime I have committed? Please tell me, Lord Sikong?"

Cai Yuan pouted.

He dared to oppress the workers like this, naturally he had thought that they would come out and sue.

But how?Now that the imperial court has given them the factory, it is up to him how to deal with the workers in the factory?

Even if Zhao Shu is expensive to govern Su Nei Shi, it would be impossible to convict him based on this point, right?
Sure enough, when Zhao Shu heard this, he gritted his teeth and thought for a long time, he didn't know how to deal with Cai Yuan.

It is true that with his status of governing Su Neishi and the head of the Ministry of Commerce, it is naturally not a trouble to deal with Cai Yuan.

But what's the use of punishing Cai Yuan today?Will it make him change the way he treats his workers?
