At night, Ginkgo rested at Li Lan's house, and Li Hong did not come back until she fell asleep.

The next morning, Ginkgo was dressed up, and as soon as she opened the bedroom door, she saw a person working at the dining table with his back to her.

Don't guess, Li Hong is.

Hearing the sound of footsteps behind him, Li Hong stopped what he was doing, compared to his daughter-in-law's "loud sound", this footstep was much lighter.

Turning around with a smile, "Comrade Ginkgo, hello, welcome to my house." ”

Ginkgo looked at Li Hong carefully, his temples were white, the corners of his eyes were furrowed, his eyes were bloodshot, his figure was as thin as ever, his apron was tied around his waist, and the sleeves of his shirt were rolled up high, even though he smiled kindly, he couldn't hide his haggard look.

"Hello, Comrade Li, thank you for your hospitality. ”

"I'm really sorry yesterday, there was something in the bureau temporarily......"

"Is it settled?"

Li Hong shook his head, his face darkened a lot, "It's not easy to get it." ”

Li Lan walked out of the kitchen with a big bowl of soy milk, followed by a little tail, the little princess of the Li family, she wore two pigtails, walked and flicked, full of vitality.

Ginkgo smiled and beckoned to her, "Little friend Li Zi, good morning." ”

Li Zi puffed up her small chest, "Aunt Li, good morning." ”

Li Hong was very discerning, took two quick steps forward, took the soy milk from his daughter-in-law and put it lightly on the table.

He stretched out his hand again and invited Yin Xingdao, "Comrade Li, please take a seat." ”

Ginkgo smiled, "So polite, I have to go wash up first." ”

Li Hong smiled, "I'll go get the bowl first." ”

Seeing people entering the kitchen, Li Lan whispered to Ginkgo, "I didn't come back until one o'clock in the middle of the night, and I didn't sleep, I walked around the room, sighing." ”

Ginkgo pursed her lips, "Things are tricky?"

Li Lan had already learned from Li Hong what happened, "The factory closed down, wages could not be paid, and the workers made trouble and demonstrated at the gate of the factory. Some people are even more outrageous, running to the roof of the factory to stay, saying when to give money, when to go down, and the factory is on the bar. ”

"They don't sleep?"

"Everything is ready, and I went up with the quilt on my back, and more than a dozen people spread on it. ”

"The determination to ask for money is very strong. "In the weather of May, sleeping in the open air, the cool air is still very heavy in the middle of the night.

"No one wants their hard-earned money to go to waste. Li Lan shook her head, her tone full of sympathy, "Those who go to the top of the building are the kind of families in the factory." All of a sudden, there is no job, and there is no financial source, and if you don't get your previous salary, the whole family has to drink the northwest wind. ”

If she is really helpless, she will probably make this decision.

Ginkgo asked, "What did that factory do before?"

"Food factory. Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, in the past, it was difficult to enter the food factory, there was a lot of oil and water in it, and now things can't be sold, and even wages can't be paid. ”

"Is it private, or public?"

"Public. Li Lan sighed, the iron rice bowl turned porcelain, and it shattered when she fell.

"How many employees are there?"

"This is not clear, Li Hong knows, and will ask him later. ”

"Ask me what?" Li Hong walked out of the kitchen with his hands on the dishes and chopsticks.

Li Lan turned around, "Ginkgo asked how many employees are in that factory?"

Li Hong thought for a second, "There are about two hundred people, but I didn't expect that they would fall down, and I didn't hear any wind beforehand." ”

Ginkgo is not at all surprised, this is just the beginning, and in the next few years, the trend of bankruptcy and layoffs will become more and more popular.

The system provides a warm bed for many people, and they don't have to worry about losing their jobs, worrying about food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Unexpectedly, society is changing rapidly, and the warm bed is withdrawn, leaving only a lonely cold wall behind it.

At this time, if you work hard, you may be able to break into a new world. If you blindly languish and miss the past, you can only be eliminated.

People, we should still struggle, and we must not wear off our fighting spirit at any time. Only in this way will you not be afraid of sudden changes in your life.

Ginkgo's eyes sparkled, she was still trying to do something last night, and now her chance came.

looked at Li Hong eagerly, "Do you know what plans that factory has in the future?"

Li Hong was puzzled, and blurted out the thought, "Do you have an idea?"

Talking to smart people is simple, no effort at all, Ginkgo didn't admit or deny, simple four words, "wait and see." ”

Li Hong didn't have time to speak, and Li Lan next to him looked anxiously, "Ginkgo, can you think clearly, it's a loss-making business." ”

Fools will take over, there have been several leaders in recent years, all of them are full of confidence when they take office, what they say is better than singing, what goes out of the city, out of the country, into the foreign country, what to build buildings for employees, what. ……

As a result, the benefits never stopped declining.

Ginkgo nodded with a glance, "I will definitely consider it seriously." ”

Li Lan felt that it was not enough, and secretly glanced at Li Hong, asking him to talk about the bad situation of the factory in recent years.

Li Hong, who has always obeyed his wife's orders, did not play cards according to common sense this time, and after pondering for a while, "I don't know the specific situation, I'll help you ask later." ”

He works as a policeman, usually walks the streets and alleys, and sees Li Languang who devotes himself to the orphanage.

Since the 90s, self-employed people have sprung up.

Sister Zhang near the orphanage, her son opened a marriage company, the business is booming, her hair is combed and shiny, and she usually walks in and out with a briefcase, like a big boss.

Besides, Comrade Li's family is in business and is doing well, otherwise they would not have donated money every year.

Since she is capable and willing, she should help out. It can not only meet the wishes of the other party, but also recover the losses of some employees, killing two birds with one stone, why not.

Ginkgo clasped her hands into fists, "Thank you first." ”

Li Lan turned sideways slightly and asked Li Hong, "Are you going to that factory today?"

Li Hong nodded, "Lao Liu, they kept watch all night yesterday, and I will change people after dinner." "A group of people slept on the roof of the building, and they couldn't persuade them to go back, so they could only leave a few people with them.

Ginkgo suggested, "Why don't I come along?"

Li Hong, Li Lan, "No." ”

The two spoke in unison and opposed it together.

Li Hong said euphemistically, "It's a mess over there, the crowd is angry, and it's easy to get into trouble." "They're all working in pairs.

Li Lan couldn't stop Ginkgo's "ambition", but she felt that she had to stop Ginkgo from going on a field trip.

"Let Li Hong inquire first, and then you can go after a while. ”

Li Hong also agreed, "I'll go find someone to inquire first, don't panic." ”

Ginkgo thought about it and nodded in agreement.

After breakfast, Li Hong left in a hurry, and Li Lan sent Li Zi's children to school.

As for Ginkgo, she also has something to do, to see an old friend.
