The two-meter-wide gate was surrounded by a group of workers. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

They all looked angry, waving their fists and shouting slogans.

"Add money! Add money! Don't add money and don't do it! ”

"That's right! Wages must be raised, and if they don't rise, we will go to other jobs. ”

"That's right, such a big Qinghe Town, the quarry is not only your Zhang family."

Zhang Xiaohan sighed in his heart, these workers are here to make trouble.

Worried that his parents would be embarrassed by the workers, Zhang Xiaohan parked the broken electric donkey on the side of the road, quietly went to the corner and took out his mobile phone, and summoned Qiao Feng to escort him.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

When everything was ready, he walked to the gate, pushed away the two workers who stood in the way, and squeezed into the courtyard without hesitation.

"Mom, what's going on?" Zhang Xiaohan walked up to his mother Chen Shulan and asked in a low voice.

Chen Shulan was worried, and dragged Zhang Xiaohan behind her, "The workers came over in the afternoon and shouted to ask your father to increase his salary." ”

As expected, Zhang Xiaohan turned his face, remained silent for the time being, and chose to wait and see.

Qiao Feng didn't leave an inch, quietly by his side.

Chen Shulan glanced at Qiao Feng strangely, curious about the identity of this person.

In the middle of the courtyard.

Li Yong, the person in charge of the quarry, led two young and strong guys, who were aggressive.

Zhang Jianguo's face was flushed, his mood was very unstable, and he wanted to speak several times, but was interrupted by Li Yong.

"Boss Zhang, be reasonable, our gang has been working in your quarry for almost a year, right? All along, we work diligently and never lazy, and we complete the quarrying on time and on time every day, with few delays. Now that it's about to enter the winter and the New Year, you have to give us a salary increase! ”

Zhang Jianguo was anxious and angry, and wanted to explain, but was brutally stopped by the young man brought by Li Yong.

"Boss Zhang, don't interject yet, let my brother finish speaking."

Li Yong cleared his throat and continued confidently: "I know that the salary you give us is about the same as that of other quarries in the town, but this cannot be a reason for you not to increase your salary. I heard that Boss Chen said yesterday that in the future, the Chenjia stone processing factory will purchase a large number of your stones, and you are about to make a fortune, you can't treat us workers badly, right, otherwise where will everyone have the motivation to work for you? ”

Zhang Jianguo was speechless.

In all fairness, the wages paid to the workers at the Zhangjia Quarry were not low.

Compared with other quarries in Qinghe Town, it is an average level.

It's not that Zhang Jianguo is stingy and reluctant to raise wages for workers.

But in the small circle of Qinghe Town, there is an unwritten rule.

No boss can easily add money to his workers, otherwise he will upset the balance and offend other bosses.

Zhang Jianguo belongs to an ordinary person without any background, and he does not dare to risk being this up-and-coming bird, lest he become the target of public criticism.

Therefore, every time there is a festival, he will always arrange for Chen Shulan to send some gifts to the families of workers.

It can be regarded as a disguised improvement of the welfare of workers.

Unexpectedly, this group of workers did not appreciate it and went to the door to ask for a wage increase.

This made Zhang Jianguo angry and puzzled at the same time.

It's obviously not normal.

Li Yong and these workers usually behaved in a decent manner, and never had an argument or even a conflict with him.

Why did you risk being fired by yourself this time and not hesitate to come to the door to make trouble?

Zhang Jianguo was puzzled.

Zhang Xiaohan, who was watching coldly, found that it was greasy.

When he observed the words and deeds of Li Yong and the workers, he found that a young man brought by Li Yong had a flickering look in his eyes, and he would look into the crowd every once in a while.

Following his gaze, Zhang Xiaohan successfully found the guy who was fanning the flames in secret.

A short man with a sharp-beaked monkey cheek, mingling in the crowd, standing on tiptoe from time to time, glancing at the young man.

At this time, Zhang Jianguo took two steps forward, raised his hands in the face of the excited workers, and persuaded loudly: "Everyone be quiet, listen to me." ”

As soon as the workers calmed down, the dwarf pinched his throat and shouted, "What are you talking about so much nonsense? Either give us a salary increase, or we will go to other quarries to work, there is no place to keep a master here, there is a place to keep a master! ”

"That's right!" The young man who talked to the dwarf said: "Boss Zhang, everyone is doing their best for you, it is reasonable for you to increase your salary as the boss, you can agree, everyone is not very demanding, it is enough for each person to add five hundred yuan per month, this money is not worth mentioning to you." ”

As he spoke, he looked around at the workers and raised his voice and said, "Unless, you only think about making money for yourself, but you don't want to make the workers' lives better, is there a boss like you?" ”

One sentence immediately caused an uproar among the workers whose truth was unknown.

"What? Boss Zhang, you're too black-hearted. ”

"We are tired and tired to work for you, let you build a small western-style house, buy a big color TV, and you are not even willing to add 500 yuan to us?"

"it! We are unlucky to have such a boss on the stall, we went to Lao Liu's quarry, I still don't believe it, without his surname Zhang, we will not find a better job. ”

"Yes, yes, yes! I heard Lao Liu's friends say that each of them has risen by 100 yuan recently, let's go and do it for Lao Liu, and don't give him the surname Zhang to do it! ”

Li Yong had a smug smile on his face.

As the head of the quarry, he was highly regarded by Zhang Jianguo, and his salary was three times that of the workers.

It stands to reason that he should advance and retreat together with Zhang Jianguo to dissuade these impulsive workers.

However, the scene in front of him was planned by him.

The two young men he brought with him and the short man hiding in the crowd were the ones who were responsible for cooperating with him in this play.

When several quarry owners in the town heard the news released by Chen Guofeng, they gritted their teeth with jealousy at Zhang Jianguo.

After they contacted and discussed privately, they secretly found Li Yong, gave him a large amount of favors, and instigated him to incite the workers to come to Zhang's house to make trouble.

As long as Zhang Jianguo did not meet the workers' demands, Li Yong led everyone to resign, leaving the Zhang family unavailable.

Although the work in the quarry is not technical, each of them requires a veteran who is familiar with the procedure.

Otherwise, the slightest carelessness will bring huge losses to the quarry.

Without this group of workers, the Zhangjia quarry will definitely be difficult to maintain, and then it will close its doors.

Li Yong is not worried about losing his job at all.

Several bosses promised to hire Zhang Jianguo as soon as they destroyed his quarry, and gave him four times his salary.

Hearing that the workers were going to resign, Zhang Jianguo suddenly became anxious.

It was impossible for him to accede to the workers' demands.

Each person added an additional 500 yuan per month, and the total of these twenty-seven people was nearly fifteen thousand.

Over the course of a year, that's a huge expenditure of hundreds of thousands.

He worked hard for a year, and he was able to make such a small profit in total.

If it is distributed to the workers, he himself will have to drink the northwest wind.

However, once this group of workers is lost, it is true that no suitable person can be found to replace them in a short period of time.

Zhang Jianguo was helpless, unable to think of a suitable reason to persuade the workers to stay, and was sweating profusely.

Zhang Xiaohan saw through the tricks of Li Yong and these people, and sneered in his heart.

Standing in front of Zhang Jianguo, he said in a flat tone to everyone: "Since you want to resign so much, then okay, you can go, you don't have to go to our quarry from tomorrow!" ”
