709 nemesis
Carnelas took two minions and walked to the mine's office building with a high spirit, and at the front desk he asked to meet Zhao Yongqun, the general manager of the mining company. There is no pop-up window on the net, and the update is fast // The person in charge of the reception at the front desk is a Chinese girl, and she is already very familiar with Canelas himself. Hearing Caneras's request, she didn't say a word, got up and took Canelas upstairs, and came to the door of Zhao Yongqun's office.
"Mr. Canellas, Mr. Zhao is receiving guests now, are you waiting for him for a while, or will you go in now?" The girl at the front desk asked politely.
Canelas, of course, did not want to sit outside and wait, and he replied in a cheerful manner, "My business is very important, and it involves the future of the mine, so I must see Mr. Zhao immediately." โ
"Okay." The girl at the front desk seemed to be quite aggrieved and agreed, she knocked lightly on the door, and after getting the answer inside, she leaned in and asked a few words, and then withdrew and said to Canellas: "Mr. Canellas, Mr. Zhao said that if you want to go in, go in." However, for your safety, it's best not to go in for the two friends you brought. โ
"Security considerations?" Canelas was confused. He naturally didn't believe that Zhao Yongqun dared to make any tough moves against him, in other words, if the mining company really dared to use force against him, he couldn't ask for it, which would just be able to make things bigger. What he didn't understand was why he couldn't bring his minions in for security reasons.
After a moment's thought, Canelas finally didn't let the two minions follow him, but pushed open the office door and walked in, the front desk girl shutting the door behind him.
"Mr. Zhao. I'm so sorry, I'm here again. Canelas said proudly to Zhao Yongqun, who was sitting at the back of the office.
Cui Linmei, the translator sitting next to Zhao Yongqun, translated Canelas's words to Zhao Yongqun, and what made Canelas wonder was that Zhao Yongqun did not look unhappy or uneasy this time, but just asked with a slight smile: "You came to me, is there anything wrong?" โ
"Yes, I'm here to officially inform you. Our union intends to organize a strike. Canelas said.
"Strike?" Zhao Yongqun shrugged his shoulders like a Westerner and said, "It is your freedom to strike, do you need to notify us of this matter?" โ
"What?" Canelas was stunned. He really didn't expect Zhao Yongqun to answer him like this, and Zhao Yongqun's correct reaction should be to show surprise and then anxiously inquire about the reason for the strike. He begged him not to strike, saying that everything was negotiable. However, Zhao Yongqun turned a blind eye to the reason for their strike, which was too unreasonable.
"Mr. Zhao, don't you want to know the reason for our strike?" Canelas couldn't hold back anymore and spoke for Zhao Yongqun.
Zhao Yongqun shook his head and said, "I really don't want to know, I think this friend of mine may be interested in learning about this, or you can tell him." โ
Zhao Yongqun said. He gestured to a guest who was sitting silently on the couch in his office.
"Your friend? What qualifications does he have to know about us......" Boss Canelas reluctantly turned his head to see who Zhao Yongqun's friend was. Before he finished speaking, his eyes had already seen Zhao Yongqun's guest, he suddenly stopped talking, and his high chest suddenly deflated.
"Yes, yes, yes...... It's Mr. Johannes......" Canellas' lips were so stiff that he couldn't get a complete sentence. He suddenly understood what Cui Linmei had just said: for safety reasons, it was best for him not to bring his minions in.
Sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face was none other than the Bolivian gangster Johannes. As the head of a miners' union, Canelas had the privilege of meeting Johannes twice, but Johannes had little friendship with him, and the status of the two men was far apart. โฆ,
"You're Canellas?" Johannes asked in a condescending tone.
"Yes. Yes. โ
"I've heard that you and my friend are in a quandary." Johannes continued.
"No, no, I never dared to embarrass your friends." There was a cry in Caneras's voice. Embarrassment with Johannes' friends is a self-defeating thing. In Bolivia, security isn't very bad, but it's not too difficult for Johannes to make a person disappear. Canelas has more than a dozen gangsters in his hands, but when it comes to combat effectiveness, not even a single hair of Johannes can be compared.
"Mr. Zhao is my friend!" Johannes slapped his hand on the armrest of the couch, "I just heard you say that you plan to organize a strike, is there any reason?" โ
"No, no, no, this must be a misunderstanding." Canelas said, "Yes, this must be a misunderstanding, I really didn't know that Mr. Zhao was your friend, and I swear to you that there will never be such a misunderstanding again." โ
Johannes glanced at Zhao Yongqun, and then said in a deep voice: "This is Mr. Zhao's territory, and I am not suitable for you and your people." Canelas, I hope not to be in Mutong in the future...... No, don't see you and your bastards in Santa Cruz again, you know what I mean? โ
"I ...... I understand. Canelas really regretted that he had come here this time, but he also understood that Zhao Yongqun invited Johannes over to deal with him, and even if he didn't run into the muzzle of the gun today, Johannes' people would have found him.
Johannes' words are very clear, people don't want to see him on the ground in Santa Cruz Province again, then he can only go away, compared to being shot and killed by Johannes' men, leaving his hometown may really be the best outcome. Johannes said that this is entirely because he is on Zhao Yongqun's territory, in other words, he is looking at Zhao Yongqun's face. Canelas didn't know if he should be grateful to Zhao Yongqun.
"Get out!" Johannes commanded briefly.
Like a lost dog, Canelas rolled out of the office building with his minions. As soon as they arrived at the door of the building, they were greeted by two local men with short guns in their pockets, and one of the leaders said to Canelas with a sly smile, "You are Canellas." Meet me, my name is Tourno, and this is my partner, Coombs. Mr. Johannes instructed us to take you and your family to the train station. I think two hours should be enough for your family to pack their bags, right? โ
Driving away Canellas, Johannes said to Zhao Yongqun, "Mr. Zhao." I assure you, that bastard won't dare to trouble the mines again, as for that McMygin. Do you need us to talk to him? โ
Johannes won't talk to anyone casually, and if he wants to talk to McMykin, it is estimated that McMygin will be more than lucky. Although Zhao Yongqun also hated McMykin. But he felt that the other party did not deserve to die, so he hurriedly said: "Thank you, McMygin, let's deal with it ourselves." For this kind of worker who is confused and makes mistakes, we are still willing to give him some more chances. โ
"I have always admired the tolerant spirit of the Chinese." "I've seen all the construction you've done around the Mutong Iron Mine, and you're genuinely willing to be friends with the Bolivians, and I'm very grateful to you." โ
Johannes' words are also somewhat true. He came to cheer for Zhao Yongqun, naturally for the sake of Lin Zhenhua and Lan Wufeng's face, but the mining company's kind treatment of the miners also made Johannes feel a little relieved. After all, the miners are Bolivians, and Iohannis is a compatriot with them. ..., Zhao Yongqun said: "Mr. Johannes is too polite. We're just doing what we're supposed to do, and you're helping us. โ
Johannes laughed and said, "Everyone helps each other, your chairman's friend, Mr. Lan Wufeng, is my best friend, so." Your business is my business. Well, I have a subordinate named Bill, who has been with me for many years, and is relatively reliable. If Mr. Zhao agrees, I want him to help you maintain order in the mines, and if you meet someone like Canelas who doesn't have long eyes, you can't talk to them, so you can let Bill talk to them. โ
Khan...... Zhao Yongqun sighed secretly in his heart, isn't this the legendary collusion with the evil forces? As a good young man in New China, Zhao Yongqun really never thought that he would do such a thing. However, Lin Zhenhua had explained to him before leaving, doing things locally, it must be black and white, Johannes was introduced by Lin Zhenhua, and to deal with gangsters like Caneras, it is still necessary for bigger gangsters to come forward.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Johannes. Mr. Bill and his subordinates, even if they are part of our mine security team in the future, we will pay them salaries and dividends. Zhao Yongqun said.
"That's great." Johannes laughed maniacally, "It's a lot better than him taking someone else's protection money in Santa Cruz." โ
Kanelas was deported by Johannes' men, and the news quickly spread throughout the mines. It turned out that the people who followed Canelas were all silent, and no one dared to talk nonsense. Even those local miners who have begun to accept the Chinese mine owners in their hearts gasped when they heard the news, feeling that it was better for them to be loyal to the mining company in a down-to-earth manner, and the other party's power was really unfathomable.
The re-election of the union was carried out smoothly under the supervision of Guzmรกn and other old miners, and the newly elected union leaders were simple and honest veteran miners who were willing to cooperate with the mining company to jointly promote the construction of a "harmonious Bolivia".
After the establishment of the new trade union, the mining company and the trade union jointly formulated a new labor discipline, stipulating the relationship between the responsibilities and rights of the employer and the employee under various conditions. The mining company also made a written commitment to the miners, stating that it would invest hundreds of millions of bolivians over the next five years to improve the living conditions of the miners and make the Mutong iron ore mine the most prosperous region in the whole of Bolivia.
"They succeeded." Boniface, the governor of Santa Cruz province, reluctantly told his aide Doria after hearing the news of the re-election of the mine union.
"Of course they will succeed, the Carnelas who opposed them have all been driven out by Johannes, who will dare to confront the Chinese?" Doria said.
"The fact that they were able to collude with Johannes is not at all like what a Chinese company should do," Boniface said. โ
"Yes, it's too dangerous. The Chinese were already very rich, and now they have Johannes to support them, they can do whatever they want, and we can't control them at all. Doria said.
Boniface asked rhetorically, "What do you think we need to control them?" โ
"But you can't let them do whatever they want, right?"
"Forget it." "At least so far, what they're doing has been in Bolivia's favor." Maybe that's what they say...... River crab bar. โ
