A quarter of an hour later, personnel from both sides of the negotiation
gathered in the largest shed in the shanty town to officially start the first
negotiation. The representatives of Baiguoyuan are Gore and Philip, and the
workers are the three sponsors of the relief society.
Although this shed was specially cleaned up, due to lack of support from hard
objects such as beams and columns, the surroundings are mainly made up of
wooden boards, so the height is only about half of the normal house. When
entering the house, you have to lower your head to prevent it from being
touched. ceiling. In addition, the ventilation is extremely poor, and the
muddy ground under your feet has been infiltrated with sewage all the year
round, and there is always a lingering sour smell in the house.
Ad
Gore frowned, his face was full of disgust, and he didn't find a place to sit
down for a while after entering the house.
"Why, are you not used to it? This is the house where hired workers live for a
long time." After Momora sneered, he asked the people outside to find two
slightly cleaner linen cloths and use them as cushions.
"I don't have to." Philip sat opposite the three of them with a natural face,
as if he didn't care that his gray gentleman's suit was stained with dirt,
"This kind of environment is just commonplace for me."
Humph, bluffing.
Momora and Horn came up with this idea.
Instead, Mrs. Karan said, "The steward laughed. You have a good house in
Shangcheng District, and the salary is so high that you are envious. How can
you be used to our residence."
"The present does not mean the past." Philip took off his leather gloves and
put them in his pockets, and then spread his palms to the three of them. "If I
said that I used to live on the edge of the ground floor, I was worried about
whether I could live to see the sun tomorrow. Would you believe it?"
Momora couldn't help frowning.
I saw that the hands were covered with all kinds of scars, including cuts,
burns, and even a corroded mark. To some extent, it has experienced more ups
and downs than the workers of Baiguoyuan.
"Are you also a hired worker?" Horn asked.
"That's not the case. It's more dangerous work than hired workers. If you are
careless, you will lose your bones." The steward sighed lightly, "I was
fortunate enough to be promoted by a nobleman, and the situation got better."
"If that's the case, then why do you have to make such harsh regulations to
help Archie oppress us?" Momora asked.
"Experience is experience, responsibility belongs to responsibility." Philip
replied calmly, "Of course, I also understand your situation and the
suffering, so I explained the situation to the boss as soon as possible. Now,
if you have any requirements, you can put it forward. NS."
This person... doesn't seem to be that difficult?
Momora thought to herself that she thought that the steward was a more
dangerous and vicious opponent than Gore, but she didn't expect to have her
own principles?
Having said that, she found that she did not know much about Phyllis. The
other party was mainly responsible for receiving guests and negotiating
business, and seldom dealt directly with hired workers.
"Momora, come on." Both Horn and Mrs. Karan turned their eyes to Catwoman.
The latter nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "First of all, the factory
must withdraw the penalties for expelling Lars, Mollier and others, and
compensate them for the corresponding number of days of wages. The root cause
of this is that the factory defaults on wages. It will cause them to be unable
to bear the hunger and steal the fruit. It is the factory, not them, that made
the mistake."
"I can agree to this." Philip responded happily, "but I have to explain that
the wage arrears is not because Gore deliberately did so. Capital turnover
takes time, and sometimes your Excellency Acie can't guarantee enough work in
his hands. Money, so next time the same situation arises, employees who have
difficulties can ask us that we will distribute food for accounting as
appropriate. As for the fruit used to make sauce, it’s better not to touch
it."
"..." Momora blinked, for a moment she didn't know what to say.
The attitude of the other party can be said to be sincere and not to say, and
the matter is considered very well, which is not like the feeling of the
factory on weekdays.
"Why, what's wrong?" Philip asked.
"Uh... it would be better if you could do this."
"You don't need to worry about this. I have communicated with His Excellency
Azie. As long as I can make a decision, it can be regarded as a formal
agreement." He paused, "Do you have anything else to mention?"
"Of course." Momora coughed twice, put aside unnecessary distractions, and
relisted everyone's demands in her heart. "The second is to abolish the
supervision system, and no more innocent beatings and flogging workers.
Supervisors are not superior to everyone. We are human beings, not animals in
cages."
"It's impossible!" Gore retorted on the spot, "If there is no supervisor, who
will guarantee that you will not be slippery and lazy? Do you rely on your
self-consciousness? Brother, if you agree to this, the whole factory will
probably be messy!"
"The workers can be allowed to manage the workers themselves." Horn said, "The
use of torture is of no benefit to production except to create panic and pain.
You are just using this regulation to deliberately satisfy your own pleasure!"
"Okay." Philip interrupted the dispute between the two sides, "I already
understand this, but the factory system has been in place for a long time, and
it is not appropriate to suddenly cancel the entire system. Otherwise, the
supervisor should not act on the hired worker for the time being. Employed
workers can also participate in production management. If the production
efficiency does not decrease for a period of time, it will not be too late to
transform it into formal regulations. So you are always okay, right?"
"How long is a period of time?" Mrs. Karan asked carefully, "We need an exact
answer."
"Two months, how?"
The three of them looked at each other and checked each other's thoughts.
Finally, Momora replied, "I hope it can be written in the writing."
"No problem, this is a matter of course."
"We still have a third and last request." After seeing the steward's promise,
Catwoman continued, "Employers usually only work until they are about 30 years
old, but they can't save much salary. Such treatment is unfair. It can be said
that the factory must increase the daily salary before we are willing to fully
resume work."
Philip asked calmly, "How much do you plan to increase to?"
Momora wanted to say 50%, but Li's words suddenly came back to his mind. After
she was silent for a while, she stretched out three fingers
~www.mtlnovel.com~30 Tongkebo a day. "
A sweet bread happens to be at this price.
"What are you kidding?" Gore stood up abruptly, but he pressed his head
against the wooden plank. He took a breath of pain and grinned his teeth after
a while, "Thirty copper coins a day, it's all rushed. At the level of a
supervisor, Your Excellency Azie will never accept such an absurd salary—"
"Yes, I agree with this offer." Philip said without hesitation.
"Brother?" Gore looked at his brother with a look of stunned expression,
"That's 30 copper plates a day, and there are only a dozen supervisors, but
there are 600 employees in the factory!"
"You don't need to say more, my opinion can represent the Baiguoyuan factory."
Philip raised his hand and motioned to the other party to be quiet, "But if
you want to increase this salary, I also have a request here."
Momora nodded, "Talk about it."
"Before this evening, the factory must fully resume work, and the factory will
run overnight to make up for the delay in the day." His tone seemed to be
unpretentious. "You protest against it, but production must not be stopped.
All goods must leave the factory on schedule— —This is my request."
