Go to the Republic of China to engage in industry

Liu Hai's thoughts turned quickly, he thought a lot, and asked in a low voice: "Factory Director, will our factory reduce the number of employees if we have machines?"

This is really hard to say, don’t look at their current orders as if they can’t do overtime, but after having a machine, it depends on how much the machine can increase the speed. If it far exceeds the manual, then the workers will really face unemployment. risks of.

Many old-fashioned cloth factories are the best examples. There is a machine, and many workers are fired.

Tang Fusheng sighed. As the director of the factory, he knew these shocking words, but he couldn't say them. He and Shen Chengrun said they were cooperating, but it was more appropriate to describe them as employment. The factory had nothing to do with him. He just had more workers than workers. Earn some commission.Tang Fusheng is not Ye Yi, and he has no life-saving grace to Shen Chengrun. How could Shen Chengrun share his technology with Tang Fusheng for nothing.

"Mr. Shen knows these things well, so we don't need to worry about them." Tang Fusheng said vaguely: "Mr. Shen's behavior is obvious to all you and I. It will not cut off the workers' livelihood."

"Mr. Shen is a kind-hearted person." Liu Hai said so, but rolled his eyes in his heart. Which owner would be willing to support idlers? It seems that the factory is bound to reduce its staff, but I don't know how many workers need to be reduced. It depends on the efficiency of the new machine.

Tang Fusheng got the machine very quickly, and the research institute fully cooperated. The new machine was ready in three hours, and he accompanied several researchers to help install the machine and teach the workers how to use the technology.

The workers are very serious about studying one by one, and the researcher is quite satisfied seeing this scene.He didn't know that each of these workers had their own thoughts.Since the factory has introduced machines, it is likely to reduce the number of workers, and those who are reduced must be those workers who do not know how to use machines.

At the beginning, the workers were not proficient in using the machine, and it was not obvious. After they knew how to use the machine thoroughly, they found that the machine was really easy to use. It was far from being as simple as five workers. Far beyond.

Besides, this machine is the latest machine researched by Wuxu Research Institute, and it is not the old technology that foreigners have brought into China that is about to be eliminated, so the efficiency is even more incomparable.

This adds to the worries of the workers. In recent days, the workers feel that dark clouds are pressing above their heads all day long, and there is no sunny day.

This day's lunch break, all the workers didn't sleep, but got together to discuss things, including the little manager Liu Hai.

A worker said: "Guard Liu, this machine is so easy to use. At the beginning, it was said to be worth five workers, but now it seems that it is not comparable to human labor. Does our factory have to reduce the number of workers?"

"Hey, it's hard to say if this continues." Liu Hai didn't know what to do, but he wasn't as worried as these workers, no matter what he was a manager, as long as there were still workers in the factory, it wouldn't be his turn to reduce staff.

"Then what can we do?" The workers are all distressed, and the risk of layoffs is the same for all workers.

"If we are downsized and go home, where else can we find such a good job, which guarantees a minimum of more than ten dollars a month, and can earn a few more dollars by working overtime when we are busy."

"No, my family has just had a better life, and my wife and children have just grown some flesh. I'm still thinking about expanding my house at the end of this year. If it is downsized, what will I build!"

"My son just met a girl, and she agreed because I was working in our factory. She felt that my family's income was stable. If I went down at this time, the girl might have to brag to my son."

"My mother just broke her leg a few days ago. The doctor said it's okay, and the medicine will cost me some money. If I don't have a job, what should I do?"

"My daughter-in-law is pregnant, and the doctor's pulse said it was a son. This job is too important to me, and I really can't lose it."

"I……"

Regardless of whether it is true or not, every worker began to complain with a sad face, and there was only one central idea, that is, he could not be reduced to go home.

That night, a worker knocked on the door of Tang Fusheng's house in the dark. Tang Fusheng opened the door and found that it was a worker from his own factory who hurriedly invited someone in. "Why are you here so late, but what happened at home?"

Workers push out a long strip of paper package with dirty hands, and you can tell what is wrapped in the paper just by looking at it.

Tang Fusheng's expression darkened immediately, and he snapped, "What are you doing?"

"I, I don't mean anything else." The worker rubbed his hands nervously, "Exactly, you know my situation, I am the poorest of the workers, and now my parents and brothers are still living under the same roof. There are four children below, not to mention the other brothers. Now that the whole family is pointing at my salary, I really can't live without this job."

Hearing this, Tang Fusheng understood what the workers meant. They were all for their livelihood. Tang Fusheng was not so angry anymore. He sighed a long time and said, "I know your difficulties, and I can understand them, but it's just that the reduction of staff is still a problem. I'm not sure, take the money back, I won't take it. But your family is really in trouble, and one day, I will definitely help Mr. Shen fight for the chance to stay. "

"Thank you, Director Tang, you are such a good person." The worker turned around and left without taking the money on the table.

Tang Fusheng hurriedly chased after him and returned the money to the worker, only to let the worker take it away.

When Tang Fusheng sent the workers away, he didn't notice that there were workers from the same factory watching this scene in the corner.This worker also came to give gifts, but he came a little later and saw a worker in front of him entering Tang Fusheng's house, so he didn't dare to knock on the door.

The worker was still following his wife, who whispered to him, "Look, I told you to come, but you still don't want to. You don't even think about how good the Shen family's job is, how many pairs of eyes are staring at you outside. , that is, the temporary workers who are looking for a few months of pregnancy at the women's factory, and most of them are paid to buy places. If any of you are really laid off, then you will never want to find such a good job in your life. Okay, hurry up Let me go in, you know how pitiful you are?"

The worker nodded and knocked on the door of Tang Fusheng's house.

Tang Fusheng thought that this situation would be an exception, but later found that there were many workers. These days, workers came here every night. Tang Fusheng confiscated all the workers' money and sent them away with good words.

The workers couldn't get through his way, so they went to the small steward Liu Hai. Liu Hai's eyes rolled around. In his mind, the factory now has 120 workers. The scotch tape factory recruited workers again later, so there are more people than before.

So even if half of the staff is cut, there will be at least 50 people left, which means that he can safely accept gifts from 25 workers.Of course, he also has to leave a few places for Tang Fusheng, but with Liu Hai's experience in working with Tang Fusheng these years, Tang Fusheng will definitely not accept gifts, but no matter what, he has to reserve one hand, and only accept 20 places, one place He didn't want too much, 500 yuan, that's [-] yuan!

Liu Hai was dazed by this huge number. He has never been able to earn [-] oceans all at once in his life. This is not a machine change, but a gift to the God of Wealth.

When another worker came to him, Liu Hai took the money by pinching his head. He was not afraid of the money being hot, and he could still talk to Tang Fusheng. Shen Chengrun would definitely not come forward when the staff was reduced. He didn't know the situation of the workers. It can only be decided by Tang Fusheng, Tang Fusheng will definitely ask him how the workers behave, it is too easy for him to keep these few people.

Liu Hai was so happy that when he went to bed at night, workers would come to him to give him gifts, but he refused to accept them, and those workers dropped the money and ran away.

After having a good night's dream, Liu Hai went to work the next day with trembling spirits. When he saw the people who gave him gifts, he deliberately praised: "Xiao Chen, Xiao Li, Xiao Liu, you three performed well today. Keep up the momentum and keep going!"

"Yes, Guanshi Liu."

The three workers quickly answered loudly, and the other workers looked at each other in blank dismay.

As soon as Liu Hai turned around and left, the three workers who were called out found an excuse to go out and hide.

The rest of the workers look at each other, and someone first said: "What's the matter with the three of them, they were afraid of being downsized before, and they worked the hardest. Especially Xiao Liu, whose family conditions are the worst in our entire factory." , In order not to be cut down, he took the initiative to apply for overtime a few days ago. Why did he suddenly lose his mind these few days? It looks like downsizing."

Another kind of worker curled his lips, "What else can happen, it must be a gift for Liu Guanshi. I don't believe that Liu Guanshi didn't see that the three people were still slacking just now, and started working when he walked over. Let's I have worked under Guanshi Liu for so many years, and I know who Guanshi Liu is, but his eyes are the most poisonous. He can find out who is cheating and cheating even if he rests for a second."

"Who did you hear that they gave gifts?"

"I guessed it, but someone told me that he saw it, but I can't say who the person who told me was. They reminded me out of good intentions, and I can't turn around and betray him!"

The workers' minds became dull, and they lost their enthusiasm for work. Tang Fusheng soon discovered this. He didn't do ideological work in several meetings, so he had to ask Shen Chengrun for an accurate statement.

"Mr. Shen, I have several people who come here to give gifts in order not to be reduced. Now people in the factory are in panic. Whether the reduction is true or not, and if the reduction is what the regulations are, please tell me. Otherwise, the workers will not want to do it. Alive." Tang Fusheng personally found Shen Chengrun and said.

"I don't seem to have ever said about reducing staff, right?" Shen Chengrun was stunned for a moment, but then he figured it out, and he said: "If the machine efficiency is high and the factory really doesn't need so many people, then a labor force will definitely be subtracted. But I will not drive these people away, I will arrange places for them."

The other factories are temporarily full, and these workers cannot get in.Who let the machine come suddenly? In the original plan, Shen Chengrun thought that he would have to set up a factory in the next year anyway, so he just stuffed all these workers into it.

At present, Shen Chengrun has no plans to set up a factory. His wallet needs to be maintained, and road construction is really costly.So we can only let those workers work in the tape factory first.

Shen Chengrun comforted Tang Fusheng and said: "Go back and tell the workers that they don't need to worry about this. They have contracts in hand. The contracts clearly state that if one party breaks the contract, the other party can demand compensation for three years. So they can Don't worry, I won't break the contract."

Only then did Tang Fusheng feel at ease, feeling that he had a solid foundation in his heart, and that he had an account with the workers when he went back, so he hurried back happily to tell the workers the good news.

The workers now took their hearts to heart. They all remembered the contract they signed at the beginning. Many people could not read, and the signatures at that time were all copied from gourds.

The workers were happy, but some were unhappy. Liu Hai's heart was cooked as if it had been boiled in boiling water.

In the past few days, although he did not reach the 500 yuan he expected, he still had 200 yuan, and he was too complacent. He spent some of the 200 yuan and used it for his sons' marriage. Now these people have come to ask Liu Hai to pay back the money. If they dare not pay it back, if they don't pay it back, the workers will definitely sue Tang Fusheng. Knowing that he collects money in private, he can't even think about doing his job.

Liu Hai could only grit his teeth and return all the workers' money, vomiting blood with hatred in his heart.
