Chapter XXXVIII
While Li Hanming and Sun Ping accompanied Li Gang home, Daoguang Toy Factory had launched a factory-wide fundraising activity. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Each supervisor first gathered the personnel of his department, informed Li Gang of the misfortune that happened to him and his family situation, and then called on the department personnel to donate
"Everyone try to contribute, how much can be done, there is no compulsion, one piece is not too little, 1000 is not too much." That's basically what these department heads say.
These brothers and sisters who work outside the home, each of them has their own difficulties, and every month the family members are waiting for their salaries to pay tuition, buy fertilizers, seeds, pesticides, give favors, and so on. Most of these people come from the countryside, although the situation in the countryside is much better now than before, and they don't have to pay some messy taxes, and life is a little better. However, the cost of farming is increasing, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees are all waived during the child's compulsory education, but the cost of food, clothing, and tutoring materials is not a small expense. Even if life is better, the family wants to build a house, and if you have a house in the countryside, you want to buy it in the city, and if you have a house in the city, you want to find a good school district house, or change to a bigger house. In short, there are many places in the family to ask for money, and there is always not enough money. No one has said they have extra money.
But now this situation is special, who doesn't have a difficult time? What's more, it's his colleagues, people who have spent countless days with him. Now this great grief is happening to those around him, and compassion takes over their hearts. Almost all employees responded positively to the fundraiser. But most of them can't get the money out today, and they don't usually have to spend any money to work, so they don't have much money with them, and many people don't even have a dime on them.
In view of this situation, and the fact that all departments are very similar, Hong Huangtian said to the heads of various departments that today is just a mobilization, and that the money will be collected before 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, and that the money must be transferred to Li Gang's account at 10 o'clock tomorrow.
In addition, Hong Huangtian found a few supervisors to discuss whether the fundraising should be registered or anonymous, that is, write everyone's name and indicate the amount of money donated.
Some people advocate registering names, so that it is better to know how much money everyone has donated, maybe this list should be given to Li Gang. The other voice is anonymous. The fundraiser was spontaneous. This kind of thing is completely voluntary, and whether to donate or not is voluntary, and it is up to you to decide according to your own financial situation, family income, etc. If they are named, will those who did not donate money be exposed? Will they suffer from the eyes of others because of this, will some people say that they are stingy or something? Will this incident affect stability and unity?
In addition, we all volunteered to help Li Gang. If Li Gang is given a list, will it cause Li Gang's psychological pressure, and he will clearly see how many favors he owes Zhang San, how many favors Li Si has, and how many favors Wang Wu has. We didn't want to put any pressure on Li Gang in this fundraising, nor did we want to bring any uneasiness to Li Gang's future life. We are completely willing, so why do we have to write it down, and to whom do we remember it?
Hong Huangtian and Chen Tianlei finally reached an agreement, that is, there is no need to keep names. In the end, the fundraising plan is as follows: at the gate of the factory, the security guard will directly put a donation box, and when entering the factory door tomorrow morning, each person who enters the factory will put money in it according to his own feelings, whether to put it or not, and how much to put it has his own decision. Security guards are in charge of supervision. After 9 o'clock, several supervisors went to the door together, took out the money in the box, counted it together, and then handed it over to the finance in person, and the finance went to the bank to transfer the money into Li Gang's account, and took back the voucher to enter the account. In this way, the whole process is democratic, safe and transparent, and the fundraiser is given an account.
The heads of departments expressed no objection to such an arrangement.
"Alright, then let's arrange it like this." After Hong Huangtian and Chen Tianlei glanced at each other, Hong Huangtian said.
The next morning, when several supervisors entered the factory, each took out 500 yuan and carefully put it into the donation box. Although it was voluntary, a few people discussed it privately. Hong Huangtian saw that the supervisors were so righteous, and he was one level higher than them in terms of position, and his salary was higher, so he took out 1,000 yuan and put it in. Employees are also 30 yuan, 20 yuan, 50 yuan, 10 yuan, 100 yuan, 120 yuan, 150 yuan, 200 yuan... They each took it out of their pockets and put it in the donation box, depending on their situation.
At 9 o'clock, several supervisors took out the money in the box together, and then cleaned it up, counted, and found a total of 28,535 yuan. They hurriedly handed over the money to the finance, so that the finance could be transferred to Li Gang's account as soon as possible.
Last night, Guan Feng had sent a message to Sun Ping, saying about today's donation, and asked her how much she would donate, whether she would donate alone or both. Sun Ping replied, you donate your share. Don't worry about me, I've already given 1200 yuan to Li Gang.
”1200? You took all the money with you? ”
"Yes. I have something to do, so I won't talk about it. See for yourself. ”
Guan Feng expected that Sun Ping would definitely donate a lot of money, but he didn't expect her to donate all the 1,200 yuan in her family.
The night before the fundraiser, Sun An, Hu Lirong, and Guan Feng got together to discuss the donation tomorrow morning.
"Your sister stupidly donated all the 1,200 in the family." Guan Feng said to Sun An a little angrily.
"Donate, donate, my sister is the manager, and she should donate more." Sun An glanced at his brother-in-law and said.
Hu Lirong glanced at Sun An, turned Sun An's arm with her hand, and said, "Your sister is so generous, it's almost half of my monthly salary." “
"You said that my sister is now accompanying Li Gang home with General Manager Li, so my sister is naturally measured in how much she gives. Besides, my brother-in-law said just now that my sister has given the 1,200 yuan, you know? Why are you still talking about this? You say yes, brother-in-law, you have to support my sister, don't have a conflict between the two of you over this matter. Sun An first told Hu Lirong, and then told Guan Feng.
"I know it's your sister anyway, and you always protect her. Do you know the difficulties at home" Guan Feng lit a cigarette, took a puff, and said, "How dare I have a conflict with your sister." Now that I'm mixed up with this, even your sister is looking for a job, and she dares to mess with her, she can give as much as she wants. “
Hu Lirong and Sun An saw that their brother-in-law's face was gloomy, so they didn't speak.
"I have to donate tomorrow morning, how much are you going to give, I just came, but I don't have any money." Hu Lirong waited for a while, and when she saw that she couldn't squeak, she asked her brother-in-law.
"Didn't you say it's voluntary? If you don't keep accounts, what are you afraid of, you can donate it. Sun An said to Hu Lirong.
"Don't donate? That doesn't seem good. Anyway, now it's also our supervisor who has such a big thing in his family, and other departments are donating money, and it can't be said that our own department doesn't donate at all. ”
"Then you can donate as much as you like."
Guan Feng took a few more puffs of cigarettes, he hadn't smoked for a long time, and when Sun Ping was at home, he basically didn't let him smoke, saying that the room was not big, and the smell of smoke was choking.
While smoking, he looked at Hu Lirong and Sun An, Sun An saw that his brother-in-law always did not speak, and he also took out a cigarette from the cigarette case on the table and lit it.
Hu Lirong said, "Sun An, when did you learn to smoke?" ”
"I learned it from my brother-in-law." Sun An smiled and pointed at Guan Feng.
After smoking a cigarette, Guan Feng's expression eased a little, and he said to Sun An and Hu Lirong, "Alas, your sister is a good person." We can't hold her back too much. That's it, I'll give 100 tomorrow, Ah Rong, you just came, it's okay to give 20, but you're a statistician, 20 seems to be a bit less, you give 50, Sun An, I think you can also give 50. Do you like it? ”
"Okay, let's listen to my brother-in-law." Sun An and Hu Lirong both said.
"Your sister took all the cash from the family when she left, and she didn't say anything to me when she took the money. Do you have any money? “
"Yes." Sun An said and prepared to take out the money from his wallet. Guan Feng hurriedly said, "I still have a little here, I'm afraid that you won't have any money." ”
"It's not a lot of money, but I have a little bit of money. Brother-in-law, you just said that my sister didn't tell you about the 1,200 yuan, didn't you say that she told you before, and gave it to Li Gang. “
"That's when I asked her, and she said it. These are two different things. At the mention of this, Guan Feng was a little annoyed again. Something happened to a colleague's family, and it should be helped, but you have to do what you can, you have to have a degree, do you want this home, and you don't care about Jing'er's tuition, a few days ago on my father's 60th birthday, I only gave 500 yuan, and now it's 1200 yuan? didn't discuss it with him, could it be that this family belonged to her alone, and she alone had the final say? Does she take her husband seriously? Don't talk about taking the money, you have to follow other men to a strange place, don't talk to him in advance, don't ask for his opinion, don't want to think about his feelings, and do everything on your own!
Sun An looked at his brother-in-law's gloomy face again, thinking that his brother-in-law was still angry about the 1,200 yuan, so he said to him, "Brother-in-law, you just want to open a little, 1,200 yuan, just when we play cards and lose, sometimes if we have bad luck, we will lose so much in two nights." Money is something outside the body, don't quarrel with my sister about this, I think she may have a reason for doing this. You said that she didn't tell you about the money, and it is estimated that the time was too hasty and it was too late. Didn't you see that I explained it to you later? Don't be angry, huh? “
Hu Lirong also followed, "Brother-in-law, forget it, I don't want to do so much, anyway, my sister's salary is high, and I will earn it back for you next month." “
I don't know why, Hu Lirong's words touched a certain nerve in Guan Feng's heart even more, he was silent for a while, and said to Sun An and Hu Lirong, "It's not early, you go back and rest." “
After Hu Lirong and Sun An left, Guan Feng lit another cigarette by himself.
He craned his neck and spat out a puff of smoke into the air. Then I watched the smoke spiral upwards slowly, then slowly dispersed and faded, and finally disappeared. He sighed.
