Chapter 2879

Early the next morning, the man got up and left home, and went to the factory early with a certificate of unpaid wages from the factory.

Walked all the way there.

The blizzard destroyed the city's transportation system, and all the only buses were suspended.

The temperature today was very low, more than 30 degrees below zero. Fortunately, he kept walking and wore thick clothes. The man was even sweating a little when he came to the factory.

He quickly took off his thick coat and put it on his shoulders.

There were already many people in the factory, and he found a seat surrounded by people he knew and had a good relationship with.

Everyone was chatting and he listened for a while and then joined in.

"Are they really going to sell all these things?" The man in line was a bit incredulous.

Although the scale of this factory is not too large, the machines on its assembly line are all very new and were basically added six or seven years ago.

Just one year before the federal government officially announced that the Ice Age was coming, the world economy was soaring rapidly and international trade was in full swing.

As long as there are products, you can get orders from the international market. At that time, it can be said that the world's economic development was the fastest.

The boss of the company slapped his head, attracted a group of jealous partners, and invested in new production machines. As a result, before he could achieve his wealth goal, the Ice Age came.

Many of these machines have never been used!

The worker on the side sighed, "What else can we do?"

"The purpose of the federal government is to stimulate the market economy, but they cannot bear heavy debts. Now resources are tight. After all, these machines are made of high-quality steel, and some of them are special metals, which can be worth some money."

"Actually, they are right to do this. Now there are so many resources on the ground piled up in the form of commodities in warehouses or factory workshops."

"Before the comprehensive evacuation, it is definitely a smart decision to turn these things into metal ingots..."

People around him nodded, as if this guy had discussed the pros and cons of doing this with Catherine on the phone last night.

They shouldn't be here, they should be at the Presidential Palace, holding newspapers and coffee, chatting occasionally.

The men in line also expressed some of their own opinions on these national events, and had a heated discussion with several other workers.

At nine o'clock in the morning, federal government workers arrived at the scene, as well as several factory owners.

In the past, these people could maintain a more or less decent image, but now it seems that this may be their last sign of stubbornness.

The person who invested the most and was the real boss of the factory had gray hair at this time. He was only in his early forties and was about the same size as the men in the queue.

But looking at his healthy hair color, the man in line felt that the boss was actually quite pitiful.

"After intense discussions and consultations with the city hall, the city hall finally decided to invest 3.7 million to buy out all the factory's debts."

"I am very grateful to everyone for their persistence over the past few years. We have tried many methods to go as far as possible."

"But these bad circumstances have forced us to face bankruptcy and bankruptcy in the millennium. I am sentimental at the final moment."

"From my father..."

The boss talked a lot, and some of the old workers' eyes were red. This factory was just a small workshop at first, and then it grew little by little.

Before it had time to shine, it became a thing of the past.

There were also some young workers who didn't like this and yelled a few words. Fortunately, the boss knew that it was almost done and moved on to the next step.

People in the city hall announced some measures and responses to the debt buyout. The factory will be demolished and recycled. All non-personal items belong to the factory and are not allowed to be taken away.

In addition, according to the policies given by the federal government, everyone can receive a sum of money... which can be said to be compensation.

They also talked about the compensation standards in detail.

The man in line did the math and realized that he could actually get more than 3,500 yuan in compensation. This was definitely an unexpected surprise!

For workers, what will happen to the factory in the future, what will happen to the machines here, and what will happen to the boss in the future are not as important as the money they are about to receive!

Everyone queued up consciously, but soon a quarrel broke out at the front of the queue.

The originally stable order was suddenly disrupted, and many people ran to the front, as did the men in line.

Minutes later, he joined the crowd of denouncers.

One-half of the compensation this time will be replaced by various shopping vouchers, and only one-half of the actual wages will be paid.

According to this algorithm, the man in line can get only more than 1,700 yuan, and the remaining money is more than 1,700 yuan in shopping vouchers.

He didn't accept the result either, so they started to quarrel.

City hall staff and factory owners are trying to persuade them to accept this result because it is the best result.

But the workers obviously do not agree with this, and it is difficult to compromise between the two parties.

Seeing that the situation was about to slip out of control, the staff of the city hall got the microphone and shouted loudly.

"The federal government is not selective in buying up corporate debts. There are more than 40 local factories like yours, but the funds we have received are only enough to solve the debt problems of less than 15 companies."

"Since you are not satisfied with the decision of the city hall and there is no problem, then I can now revoke the decision to buy out the debt of your company."

"In other words, you just won't get a penny, not even in this life!" "This shouldn't be a very difficult choice, and I am willing to respect your choice."

"This kind of bickering will never solve the problem. After you discuss it, tell us the answer directly."

"Should we charge this money or not..."

After the people from the city hall finished speaking, the entire team left the scene and went to the factory office.

And those who shouted loudly just now also remained silent.

Human beings are so despicable, if they get a little, they will want more.

It is impossible to be grateful, there will only be hatred.

You obviously have so much and are willing to help me, why don't you give me everything you have?

But when the cook directly threatens to drop the pot, people will calm down.

After all, I haven’t eaten yet and I’m still hungry.

Some workers objected fiercely without being tough, while others decided to push for it. It didn’t take much time, and everyone returned to the previous moment, lining up honestly.

When the man in line received his more than 1,700 yuan and the 1,800 yuan shopping voucher, he felt a little inexplicable and wanted to laugh.

The muscles on his face twitched a few times, and he showed an ugly smile. Then he handed over the key to the locker and left in the wind and snow.

When we got home, my wife had made lunch of mashed potatoes and kidney beans.

The daughter looked like she didn’t want to eat, but the son ate very quickly.

"How many were given?"

"More than three thousand seven hundred yuan." The man said lazily.

The wife's eyes suddenly became a lot bigger, full of surprise, "So many?"

The man took out the money and shopping coupons and put them on the table. The woman's smile suddenly froze, "Why are they shopping coupons?"

"How does this thing work?"

The man still looked careless, "They said, either accept it or not get a penny..."

The wife was also silent. He knew very well that if he didn't have a penny, he really didn't have a penny.

She felt a little tired when she thought that there were no job opportunities on the ground and that she would have to pay for the whole next year with this little money.

Neither of them spoke during the meal. After the meal, when his wife was clearing away the dishes, the man suddenly said, "What's the name of the shelter that my neighbors applied for?"

The wife made a movement and said a name.

As a somewhat skilled worker in the factory, he believed that he could still be competitive in applying for the job in the shelter.

Not long after finishing the meal, he put his clothes back on and left.

It didn't take long to find the shelter's recruitment point, which was not too far from the apartment where they lived.

"A free single-family house with two floors and attic, totaling more than 400 square meters..."

"Basic food is free every day, but if you want to eat well, you have to pay extra. We provide fresh vegetables, meat, and eggs."

"Each family needs at least two people to participate in the designated work, and we will pay weekly wages based on performance..."

"Except for the items you purchased with your own money in the shelter, everything else belongs to the shelter and may not be resold, otherwise we will expel you..."

"If there are no problems, after filling out this application form, you will be able to join the shelter family after review."

The man listened very carefully and kept asking for details, such as what the main work in the shelter was.

Driven jointly by Catherine's government and Global Communications, shelter economic and industrial models are being discussed and tried to be implemented.

For many people, wealth means something specific.

But in fact, labor is wealth.

Planting, exploration, mining, processing, production, and breeding are all tasks that can be done in the shelter, and they all require people to do them.

As long as there is direction and trade, wealth will be generated in the circulation of materials.

The man's job is to produce spare parts. He is a skilled worker, and this position seems to have been prepared for him.

After returning home, he told the news to his family members, who were suddenly filled with surprises and hopes for the future.

Although the official shelter is the most suitable option, they really can't wait that long!

The next day, the family finished eating potatoes and went to the application point. As long as they passed, the family could go to live in a warm shelter.

A new world and a new life are beckoning to them!

Looking at the howling wind and snow outside the window, the man racked his brains and finally summed up one sentence——

What a great day!
