Chapter 106: Conspiracy (6)
"Can you agree to our terms?" asked the eldest sister.
"What I can promise you is that this project will be suspended immediately. After Sunan finished saying this, he looked around at the protest delegates, "So, in fact, your goal has been achieved." The project is suspended, and the landlord cannot raise the rent again. ”
The delegates looked at each other, as if they did not expect the problem to be solved so easily. After all, they didn't know what would end up before they came.
In fact, they are not unaware of the problems in urban villages that Lyle mentioned before. In the midst of it, they can appreciate the harsh living conditions of urban villages better than outsiders. But they can't find another way not to burden their economy than to maintain the status quo. Don't look at what you said before, you can't believe even what you say about wage increases and subsidies.
"You guys do a development, just stop it? It's not that simple. What are we going to do if we fool us back today and start again tomorrow?"
On Sunan's side, everyone realized that if the eldest sister was the backbone, this young man was the one with the clearest brain.
"I can at least guarantee that there will be no restart before the Chinese New Year. ”
"What about after the Spring Festival?"
"How many of you will still work here after the holiday?" said Sunan with a smile.
It was uncomfortable to be seen through, and the protest delegates began to dodge their eyes.
"Your factory uniforms are different in color for different levels of employees. In simple terms, the higher the level, the darker the color. None of you are front-line employees, at least team leaders or something. Sunan glanced at them one by one and said, "Manufacturing companies like yours have a very large employee turnover rate. Don't look at the number of people standing in the street with you right now. Even if there is no such thing as a rent increase, it is difficult to say how many people will return here after the year. ”
"Intimidate us?"
"You are all people who have achieved a lot, that is, you should come back in the next year, so you are the ones who are most nervous about rent. But it's clear that you're not the majority. Sunan was not aggressive, and after saying this, he didn't speak again, but left them time to think.
Tao Zi and Lyle were first surprised by Sunan's in-depth understanding of this company, and then they were also thinking about his words, guessing that Sunan was planning to divide these people?
"What the hell do you want to say?" the eldest sister was not confused, and asked very bluntly.
"I mean. We'd better both understand that, for you, first, this kind of protest won't last long, and second, that wage increases and subsidies are not something we can decide. For us, it is certainly impossible for the project to be carried out as before, but how to adjust it, no one knows now. What I can guarantee is that even if the project is restarted, it will definitely be after the year. And, before restarting, we will definitely communicate with you more and try to find a win-win solution. ”
The scene fell silent, and all parties were thinking about the meaning of this passage from their own perspectives.
"I know you're not happy with my words. I really can't give you any substantial good. But I don't want to lie to you, or draw a pie of nothingness. ”
In this small restaurant with greasy floors and the smell of onions, ginger and garlic in the air, Sunan sat among them, chatting like a group of friends from his hometown.
"That's what happened. You have all relied on your own hard work to achieve what you are today, and you should be able to understand that the truth is not good-looking, unpleasant, or even difficult to accept, but in the long run, the sooner you face it, the more beneficial it is. ”
"We're not just thinking about ourselves, people are electing us to ......," said a young man, looking down and frustrated.
"When you go back today, I can tell you that after your efforts, the project has been suspended, which can be regarded as an explanation to everyone. As for things after the year. Your rental contract is usually signed once a year, in fact, it is also due to the turnover problem, and the landlord will usually increase the rent at the beginning of the year. Now that the project is on hold, the landlord doesn't know what will happen in the future. If a large number of people say they won't come back after the holiday, maybe the rent will go down?"
"How is it possible? "It's the thin bespectacled young man again, he's really alert, and he'll interrupt as soon as such a seductive word comes out.
Sunan didn't bother with him, and continued: "Moreover, if most of the employees will not come back after the year because of the possible rent increase problem. I think your factory should be more anxious than you. After saying this, he looked at the government workers on the side.
The man laughed twice and said, "This is the truth, the manufacturing industry has been nervous about recruiting workers for several years. ”
"So, if I'm not mistaken, after today's incident, your factory should be looking for you. ”
Hearing Sunan's words, the young man with glasses glanced at Sunan vigilantly again, but this time he didn't say anything against it.
Sunan said with a smile: "I said why didn't you look for the factory, but for us, it turns out that your factory has already moved." That's right, too. If I were the boss, I wouldn't lose a skilled grassroots manager for a few hundred dollars a month, and the cost of training new people is definitely even greater. ”
Ten minutes later, the delegates began to leave the restaurant one after another, and I have to say that they were all in a low mood.
Sunan and Taozi sent them all the way to the door of the small restaurant.
The eldest sister walked at the end, she suddenly turned to look at Sunan and asked, "Young man, what university did you graduate from?"
Sunan was stunned and replied, "T big." ”
"Prestigious university. Sure enough, it was good. The eldest sister showed a heartfelt smile for the first time today, looked at Sunan and Taozi with envy and said, "I have a son and a daughter, both of whom go to school in my hometown." The results are not bad. I keep them at home and work hard to make money here, just hoping that they can go to a good university in the future, and be like you, educated, capable, and not have to live so tired like me. ”
Tao Zi has a good impression of the eldest sister, which reminds her of some simple relatives in her hometown.
"Will you be back in the next year?" asked Taozi.
"I don't know. I don't want to lose my job, but if the rent goes up, the rest of my daily expenses will go up too. I'm worried. ”
Sunan pondered for a moment and said, "Make a wish for the New Year, maybe the rent will really drop?"
Tao Zi and the eldest sister looked at Sunan in shock, no matter how you look at this person, she is not a person with such childish thoughts.
The eldest sister shook her head with a smile, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave.
Taozi didn't know Sunan for a day or two, and she didn't think Sunan would make such a joke to comfort her eldest sister. She stared at Sunan without blinking, although Sunan didn't say a word, she became more and more convinced that Sunan must know something. Gritting her teeth, Tao Zi caught up with the eldest sister and whispered a few words in her ear.
The eldest sister looked back at Sunan in surprise and confusion, and then nodded at Taozi with a smile.
Sunan sighed in his heart, are women so soft-hearted? Fan Doudou said that Taozi has always been calm and objective.
Seeing the delegates leaving, Xiao Zhao ran over happily.
"Done?"
"Well, of course, it doesn't look at who's out of the way. Tao Zi said triumphantly.
There was no one there for the tricycle. Sunan walked directly to the electrical repair shop next door, and at the door, he met a young mother holding a child.
"Hello, is the boss there?"
The young mother turned around and shouted in tongues, and someone inside immediately answered. The boss walked out, and when he saw that it was Sunan, he smiled. Both of them began to undress, as well as Xiao Zhao, who followed up.
The scene of three big men exchanging coats back and forth is a bit funny.
When Sunan changed his clothes, everyone felt pleasing to the eye, no wonder there seemed to be something wrong before.
"Being young is a big leader, it's really different. The government worker said to Tao Zi that he was not going to take care of Lyle, an embroidered pillow in a suit and leather shoes.
Tao Zi and Xiao Zhao nodded with honor.
Looking at the back of Sunan leaving, the young mother looked back at her husband's clothes up and down, and said with a smile: "I said how to look at the clothes familiarly, it turned out to be yours." He's pretty good-looking. ”
The boss frowned: "You mean he's more handsome than me?"
"I mean, the clothes I bought are good-looking. ”
