Chapter 8 Commencement

In the evening, Li Yasheng came back from working outside and sighed incessantly. He was originally an employee of the Gujia factory, but now that the Gujia factory has been shut down for more than a month, there is no hope, and he can't even pay the employees' salaries, so he has to find another way. Private-funded factories are now generally not in a good situation, he finally found a foreign-funded factory, although there is also a monthly salary of four oceans, not lower than the private-funded factory, the factory works up to 14 hours a day, eager to treat people as animals, it is actually several times more tired than the original in the private-funded enterprises.

However, in January, a few strands of gray hair quietly appeared in Li Yasheng's sideburns. He was only in his early thirties, and he was in the prime of his strength, which should not have been, but he was excessively thin, his face was as pale as dirt, and his whole body was full of exhaustion.

Only when he returned home and looked at the hot dishes that his wife had prepared for him, and his youngest son ran over to hug his legs and called his father in an attached voice, could he find a little comfort in his heart.

Today's dishes are much more abundant than before, there is a sweet and sour cabbage, a plate of fried meat with fungus, the rice is a bowl of coarse rice, and there is a fragrant poached egg lying on it. Li Yasheng felt very surprised in his heart, in the past, it was the top of the sky to be able to eat boiled cabbage, and it was impossible to get involved in meat if it was not a New Year's holiday, not to mention that there was an omelet this time. In the past, when there was money to spare, the Li family had not eaten eggs, but Zhao Xiaojuan would not make an omelette.

Surprised and surprised, Li Yasheng was not satisfied at all with the speed at which he put down his chopsticks, and he ate his meal almost like a storm, as if he hadn't eaten for a long time.

It had indeed been a long time since he had eaten - at least eight hours. At noon, the factory will provide lunch, but it is just some brown rice and rotten vegetable roots, no matter how full you are, just to cushion your stomach for the time being. Lunch time is the only time for workers to rest. Dinner is not served in the factory, so they can only wait until the end of the work, and the workers can solve it themselves.

Many times, when Li Yasheng had the scorching sun on his head and felt that he was about to hold on, he could only grit his teeth and stiffen up. He knew that if he lost his job, his sick mother and his son, who was waiting to be fed, would go hungry again.

Because of his family background, his wife is always sad, but today, I don't know if it's his delusion, he feels that his wife seems to be in a good mood. After he finished his meal, she even took out a bright red apple and handed it to him.

"What, it's meat, eggs, and fruit today, what's the good thing that can't be done?" Li Yasheng jokingly said to his wife.

"Isn't there something good coming to the door!" His wife, Zhao Xiaojuan, said with a smile on her face: "Didn't you work in that Gu family factory before?" โ€

"Of course I do!" As soon as Li Yasheng heard about Gu's factory, he suddenly lost his voice: "The things produced can't be sold, all of them are backlogged in the warehouse, and we can't even pay our wages. โ€

"It's that factory, their owner came to the door in person today, and sent all the wages owed to us, and gave us an extra dollar, saying that it was a compensation fee!" Zhao Xiaojuan said happily: "No, I bought some meat and eggs, and I plan to make up for my mother, you and the children." โ€

I thought that the salary that had been soaked in the soup was paid, and everyone was happy. Especially the Li family is poor, and they really need this money.

"Gu Zhenghong? Is he so kind? Li Yasheng asked suspiciously. When he failed to get his salary on time, he and the other workers didn't go to Gu Zhenghong, but they didn't even see him, so they were driven back by his men. The impression of these workers on Gu Zhenghong has fallen to the bottom.

When Gu Zhenghong was in arrears of wages, his old mother happened to be sick, because she had no money to get medicine, she almost didn't survive, if it weren't for the kindness of Director Zheng, who knew his situation and gave him some money to sell medicinal materials, his old mother would definitely not be able to keep it.

How grateful Li Yasheng is to Director Zheng, and how much he hates Gu Zhenghong. He never believed that Gu Zhenghong, who was so resolute at that time, suddenly found out his conscience.

"Of course it's not Gu Zhenghong, it's Miss Gu, she is the new owner of the factory. Miss Gu is Gu Zhenghong's daughter, but Gu Zhenghong divorced Miss Gu's mother because of an outer room, and the factory was passed to Miss Gu's name as a breakup fee. Miss Gu now lives with her mother, Ms. Tang, and doesn't have much contact with Gu Zhenghong. โ€

Hearing this, Li Yasheng sneered: "A common problem of rich people, Gu Zhenghong is not a thing!" These people are like this, they only care about their own happiness, where do they care about the life and death of others. โ€

"Gu Zhenghong is not a thing, but Miss Gu is kind. Although Miss Gu and Gu Zhenghong are father and daughter, they are completely different, she is a little colder, but she speaks very kindly, she does not look down on us ordinary people by virtue of her identity, and she really cares about the employees in the factory. Zhao Xiaojuan said: "I heard that she not only paid back all the wages of the workers in the factory, but also promised to increase the wages of the people in the factory." In the future, those who are still working in Miss Gu's factory will have eight hours a day, eight yuan a month, and two days a week can be used to rest, which is much easier than your current job. If you do a good job and can complete the task with quality and quantity, you will have an additional bonus every month. In addition, you can study some skills on your own after work, and if you can figure out something that is really useful, you will not only get a bonus, but also be promoted to a senior craftsman. Ah, by the way, the wages of senior craftsmen have also risen, from eighteen yuan a month to twenty-one yuan a month. If a senior craftsman can study something useful, he will also receive a bonus. โ€

Zhao Xiaojuan finished speaking in one breath, she didn't feel tired at all, she looked at her husband with bright eyes: "Those who haven't found a job have already reviewed the factory to work, and many who have found a job plan to quit and go back to the factory again." Looking back on the factory, it is not only for us Chinese people to work for themselves, but the treatment offered by Miss Gu is so generous, I really can't think of anything bad. She poked her husband with her elbow: "Hey, do you want to go back and work for Miss Gu too?" Even Director Zheng recognized Miss Gu, which shows that she is not the owner who will treat the people under her harshly. โ€

Li Yasheng originally wanted to refute his wife's words, but when he heard that Director Zheng also recognized Miss Gu, he became skeptical again: "In this world, can there really be such a good thing?" Not only are the working hours shorter than others, but the wages are higher than others? โ€

"Why not, don't you see one in front of you. Miss Gu is a kind person, and it is better to follow her than to work for those foreign devils, who are tired and can't make a lot of money. Zhao Xiaojuan looked at Li Yasheng distressedly: "Look at you, you have to go out early every day, keep working, can't eat enough for lunch, come back tired and half dead every day, and you can only eat dinner at โ–กโ–ก o'clock, and you are almost hungry and have stomach problems." Listen to me, you work in Miss Gu's factory for a while, and if it doesn't work, come out again. It can't get any worse than it is now. โ€

Li Yasheng sighed: "I've finished your words, what else do you want me to say?" That's it, you are. It's just that if Miss Gu doesn't believe her words, I'm afraid that one month's salary will be lost again. โ€

"Look at what you said, if Miss Gu just wants someone to help her work, why do you want to come to us, the old employees in the factory? She is willing to make up all the wages that Gu Zhenghong owes us, which shows that she is not such a boss who has no conscience. Besides, Director Zheng is not afraid of being deceived, what are we afraid of? โ€

"Okay, okay, can't I say it? You've only only seen Miss Gu once, how can you defend her like this......"

The next day, Li Yasheng got up early in the morning, first went to the foreign factory to quit his job, and then prepared to review the work of the factory. When he arrived at Gu's factory, he found that there were more than 180 people, and the eight senior craftsmen with craftsmanship had been hired by foreign-funded factories, but now they had all returned.

A factory that was originally disheartened and almost fell apart was reunited.

Director Zheng looked at the energetic appearance of the workers and craftsmen below, and had to admit that Gu Shuhan's hand was really beautiful.

Although her methods may not be very clever, she does rely on her sincerity to make these employees turn to her in the shortest possible time. This alone is ten times better than Gu Zhenghong, not to mention, Miss Gu still knows so much knowledge and technology...... For a time, Director Zheng was full of confidence in the future of the factory.

Gu Shuhan looked at the employees standing below, and his heart was also a little excited. Although there are far more employees who listened to her dispatch in her previous life, this is the first industry she has run in this life.

"Although everyone has returned to the Gushi factory, I believe that you still have questions about me and the future development of the factory. I can't promise you anything right now, I just want to say, let's see later. I, Gu Shuhan, will definitely not let everyone regret returning to Gu's factory! โ€

As soon as Gu Shuhan's words fell, someone said: "I believe you, Miss Gu, what work do you have, just tell us to do it!" Which one is lazy, I can't spare him! โ€

It was Xu Yifeng who spoke, a senior craftsman in the factory, and also the head of the first assembly line, he was older and experienced, and he was quite righteous, and in the factory, he was more prestigious than Shi Xinhua, the deputy director. Shi Xinhua went to a Japanese-funded factory after the factory was suspended, and the treatment was not bad, Gu Shuhan went to pay his salary that day, his attitude was quite arrogant, and he did not look back at the meaning of the factory.

Like Shi Xinhua, when the factory was prosperous, he would flatter people better than anyone else, and once something happened to the factory, he was the first to withdraw. Gu Shuhan naturally had no intention of inviting him back. Taking advantage of this incident, she also got to know the hearts of these employees in the factory eight to nine times out of ten.

Gu Shuhan appointed Xu Yifeng as the acting deputy director, and after passing the assessment period, he could be turned into a regular. Other personnel aspects have also changed to a greater or lesser extent. She also set up a team leader to explain the work required on each assembly line to the team leader of each assembly line, and nearly 200 people in the factory began to work in full swing.
