Chapter 447: Trouble

This construction site is very close to Lai Xiaohu and their village, and even shouting loudly here can be heard at the head of Lai Xiaohu's village, and now the entire construction site is fenced, otherwise the people outside will see it, maybe how many people will come to watch, and then let Lai Xiaohu be embarrassed in front of the neighbors?

"That's not what I meant, Boss Lai." When Lai Xiaohu asked him like this, the other party's face became ugly, but he didn't dare to get angry at Lai Xiaohu, because now their entire construction company is counting on Lai Xiaohu to eat, and the projects on this construction site, including those projects in the vegetable base, are all contracted by them from Lai Xiaohu, as a middle-level manager of the company, Lai Xiaohu may make him unemployed with a word.

"I ask you, what the hell is going on?" Lai Xiaohu pointed to the family members and asked the other party, "Didn't you tell me yesterday that you would handle this matter properly?" Why is it like this now? ”

"I gave them a pension in the hospital last night, but they are not satisfied, and I can't help it." Seeing this, the other party complained to Lai Xiaohu, as if to say that this matter was really not his fault.

"You gave us 30,000 yuan, how can that money work." As soon as the person in charge of the construction site finished speaking, a male family member on the injured worker's side was not happy, and angrily jumped in front of Lai Xiaohu and pointed at the person in charge of the construction site and said: "My brother has a crushed fracture of his left shoulder, six broken ribs, and his left thigh and hand are still so serious. The doctor said that the left shoulder and thigh injuries alone would not cost 30,000 yuan after post-treatment. And even if it is cured, it will leave a disability, and it will be a waste in the future. You want to send us away for 30,000 dollars. No way. ”

When Lai Xiaohu heard this, he didn't expect that person's injury to be serious, although it was not life-threatening, but this injury alone was enough to toss people. A few broken ribs are not worth mentioning, the key is a comminuted fracture of the left shoulder. And the thigh was directly inserted into the steel bar thicker than the thumb, and the injury was not light. If you want to heal these injuries, don't think about it every year and a half, and even if you are cured, you will definitely fall to the root of the disease. With such a serious injury, even if you don't get disabled, you will definitely not be able to do heavy work in the future.

For such an injury, the construction team only compensated 30,000 yuan, no wonder the family members were dissatisfied. The 30,000 yuan is definitely a drop in the bucket for the injured. Those injuries can cost 10,000 or 20,000 yuan just for surgery in the hospital, as long as the shoulder injury is too difficult to treat, and it is not easy to have a comminuted fracture. And even if I was cured by surgery in the hospital, I had to eat and drink well when I went home.

The Chinese say that it takes a hundred days to break the muscles and bones. A comminuted fracture of the shoulder is not an exaggeration to stay at home for a year. It can be predicted that the other party will definitely not be able to work in this year, which is a loss in itself for a laborer, if he works outside, he can earn tens of thousands of dollars a year. And when recuperating from injuries, you also have to take tonic from time to time. These also require money.

On this whole set, Lai Xiaohu estimates that there are no seventy or eighty thousand, and this is still based on the premise that the other party returns to normal, if the other party does not dare to do heavy work or become disabled after falling ill, the loss will be even greater.

"Why did you give 30,000 yuan?" Lai Xiaohu also questioned the person in charge dissatisfied.

"30,000 yuan is a lot." Seeing this, the other party said: "Our company has regulations. Compensation for minor injuries caused by work-related injuries is 1,000 to 5,000 yuan. Compensation for serious injuries is 10,000 to 30,000. I'm still paying for it to the highest standard. ”

"What can you do with these 30,000 yuan?" Lai Xiaohu said directly: "It's just a drop in the bucket." ”

"But I can't help it." The person in charge was also very aggrieved, "30,000 yuan is already the maximum limit I can decide." Giving more is beyond my authority. ”

At this time, the family of the injured also knew Lai Xiaohu's identity, and he was the owner of the construction site, and he was also the well-known Lai Xiaohu and Lai Boss.

Lai Xiaohu is the focus of everyone's talk on the construction site, he earned a lot of property at a young age, everyone is envious of Lai Xiaohu, and when he usually speaks, he likes to talk about Lai Xiaohu. At the same time, when they return home, these workers occasionally want the family to show off a few words and say something about Lai Xiaohu. In addition, the news that Lai Xiaohu contracted most of the farmland in Xin Town caused a great sensation in the entire new city. Therefore, although the family members of the injured have not seen Lai Xiaohu, they have heard Lai Xiaohu's name and deeds more than once.

This time, Zhilu revealed Lai Xiaohu's identity. The family members immediately pinned their hopes on Lai Xiaohu, and said to Lai Xiaohu: "Boss Lai, you must give us justice." ”

"Yes, Boss Lai, you must help us." Several family members surrounded Lai Xiaohu and kept talking.

"Alright, alright." Lai Xiaohu hurriedly stopped, and then said: "Don't worry, I will take care of this matter, and I will try my best to meet your requirements." ”

After getting Lai Xiaohu's promise, the family members quieted down, and then Lai Xiaohu saw that the woman who was lying on the ground before actually stood up by herself at this time, and then the other party walked straight to Lai Xiaohu and said gratefully to him: "Boss Lai." Thank you so much. ”

"Didn't you just lie on the ground?" Seeing him, Lai Xiaohu asked, and the other party's face suddenly changed when he heard this, and he looked at Lai Xiaohu a little ugly and said, "Boss Lai, forgive me, forgive me." ”

It would be stupid if Lai Xiaohu didn't know what was going on with Lu Dao, this person must have pretended before, but now he knows that Lu Dao is in charge of this matter, so he feels that there is no need to pretend, so he stood up.

Although the other party's behavior is a bit immoral, Lai Xiaohu can understand it. Because this method itself is used when the vulnerable group is forced to do so. They are the weaker side relative to the construction party, and it is difficult to protect their interests without trying a little extreme method.

Born in the countryside, Lai Xiaohu can understand the plight of these vulnerable groups, so although he understands it in his heart, he has no intention of entanglement. He said to the other party, "It's okay, I can understand you." ”

"Okay, everybody's gone. Those who should be working should get to work. Lai Xiaohu turned around and said loudly to the workers gathered around. Then the person in charge of the construction site also hurriedly instructed the workers to resume work according to Lai Xiaohu's orders.

After the construction site returned to normal, Lai Xiaohu said to the families of the injured and the person in charge of the construction site: "You all come with me." ”

Lai Xiaohu took them to the construction team's station here, which is the administrative center of their construction team on the entire large construction site, a house built with simple houses, and the management of the construction team is all working here, and then managing all the projects including the construction of the planting base.

The other party's highest position here is a vice president of their company, and Lai Xiaohu has met him. I've been here with him. More than 20 minutes later, Lai Xiaohu and the others came to this station, and then according to the location in their memory, Lai Xiaohu walked straight to the door of the vice president's office.

After knocking on the door twice. Lai Xiaohu walked in, at this time the vice president was on the phone, and when he saw Lai Xiaohu coming in, he immediately stood up, and said on the phone: "I'll call you later" and hung up the phone.

"Boss Lai. How did you get here? "Hung up the phone. The other party enthusiastically stepped forward and shook hands with Lai Xiaohu.

"Take care of something." Lai Xiaohu smiled and took the cigarette handed over by the other party, and then walked inside with a few people behind him. At this time, the other party paid attention to the people behind Lai Xiaohu. One of them, he naturally knew, was someone from his own company, a middle-level manager, who was responsible for overseeing the small project of the dormitory building of the Lejia supermarket. He didn't know the people on the side, but at first glance, they weren't on his own construction site.

Seeing this movement, the vice president knew that something was wrong, and simply asked the person in charge of the construction site, "What's wrong?" ”

"That's right." After being asked, the person in charge quickly stood up and said: "There was an accident during the construction site yesterday evening. A worker fell from the third floor and was injured. The situation was a bit serious, with a comminuted fracture of the left shoulder, several broken ribs, and a severe injury to the left thigh. ”

"The injured person was taken to the hospital in time after he fell. Then last night I made an agreement with them at the hospital to give the injured family 30,000 yuan as compensation, and this matter is understood. But I didn't expect them to make trouble on the construction site this morning, saying that 30,000 yuan was too little. Later, I don't know how Lu Dao was known by Boss Lai, and then we were brought here. ”

After the person in charge on the construction site finished speaking, the injured man's younger brother also stood up and said: "My brother is so seriously injured, 30,000 yuan is not enough for treatment." And even if such a serious injury is healed, he will not be able to work, and he may even be disabled, how will my brother and his family live in the future with your little compensation? My brother is the only worker in the family, and without him, I can't even maintain my daily life. ”

"General manager," the person in charge looked at the vice president helplessly and said, "30,000 yuan is already the highest compensation stipulated by the company, and I can't decide any more." ”

"You can't decide, if you can't decide, you won't know how to report to me, can't you decide?" As soon as the person in charge finished speaking, he was immediately scolded by the vice president. The vice president is undoubtedly a good person, and when he looks at today's situation, he almost knows the truth.

It's nothing more than compensation that doesn't satisfy the other party. He also knew that 30,000 yuan was the highest compensation standard stipulated by the company, and the person in charge couldn't be blamed for this incident, there was no way that the boss of the company stipulated it like this, what could they do in addition to complying with it.

It is not possible for the company to change the compensation standard for this one thing, in which case it will have to be changed in the future. In normal times, even if this matter is reported, the boss of the company will definitely not approve it, and the person who does not report it will be reprimanded, so the person in charge of the construction site did not report it.

If there is no Lai Xiaohu's participation in this matter, they will definitely deal with it in accordance with the company's consistent method, even if the family members make trouble, they also have a way to deal with it, the construction team has seen too many such things, and they have already had experience in dealing with it. It's just that this time it was unfortunate that Lai Xiaohu gave them a knowledge, which also made them unable to deal with it as before.

Especially since Lai Xiaohu brought these people here, this has already shown an attitude, and he wants to take care of this matter. And they are not satisfied with the company's compensation standards.

The vice president guessed Lai Xiaohu's thoughts, so he first reprimanded the person in charge of the construction site, and then turned to Lai Xiaohu very seriously and said tentatively: "Boss Lai." I don't know if you have any guidance on this matter? ”

"I don't have any guidance," Lai Xiaohu said directly: "But it's not easy for me to see a family, it is indeed possible that the medical expenses are not enough to suffer such a serious injury, and there are other direct and indirect losses, 30,000 yuan is indeed too little." ”

"Is that still okay?" After listening to Lai Xiaohu's words, the vice president thought in his heart that after Lai Xiaohu said this, they had to follow this method. Don't look at the construction company is very powerful. But it is these clients that construction companies cannot offend the most, because in today's China, most of the projects are built by construction teams. Especially in the real estate industry, the real estate company will hand over the project to the construction team, and then the construction team will advance funds to start from the foundation until the entire building is built. It's ready to sell. At this time, the real estate company will sell the buildings and pay the construction company only after the money is returned. In the middle of the accident or the real estate company card the funds, the construction company may be finished, so the client has a great influence on the construction site.

The project of Lejia Supermarket is relatively good, because Lai Xiaohu paid them a little start-up capital in the early stage, and there are few people who can be as generous as Lai Xiaohu. But even so, compared to the money spent on the entire project, Lai Xiaohu paid only 10 percent. In other words, most of the remaining funds are still advanced by other construction companies. They can only spend a sum of money and hand over the statement to Roca Supermarket, waiting for the unified settlement in the future. And if Lai Xiaohu says not to give money. Then the funds advanced in the early stage of this construction site will be completely finished, and not a penny will be recovered. Of course, they could have dismantled what they had built and shipped it back, but that would have been more costly.

Before the funds were settled, Lai Xiaohu was the person they could never offend at the construction site, and they couldn't even say anything that made Lai Xiaohu angry.

And now Lai Xiaohu expressed his attitude in one sentence, thinking that the construction company's compensation funds were too small, and what the vice president could do, of course, followed Lai Xiaohu's meaning, I saw him say directly: "This time the matter is indeed quite special, I didn't expect that person to be injured so seriously." In the past, although there were injuries on the construction site, it was not so serious, so 30,000 yuan was generally enough in the past. However, this time we will treat you with special circumstances, and we will definitely not just compensate you for 30,000 yuan. ”

The vice president's statement is basically equivalent to giving this matter a given. The next thing is how to determine the specific compensation standard, which must be negotiated by everyone.

"We want half a million." These are the voices of the families of the wounded. Do they add all the losses, all the costs of treatment, the wages of the time lost due to the injury, the cost of recuperation in the following year, the indirect losses due to disability or loss of labor? After these large and small compensation projects, they directly came up with a figure of 500,000, so they directly shouted out the compensation standard of 500,000.

Half a million, of course, this is impossible. No company has ever lost so much money. And 500,000 is indeed too high.

Other construction companies have their own calculation standards, "I won't talk about the cost of treatment, just calculate it according to the 30,000 yuan you said." We also agree with the one-year recuperation period in the hospital and after discharge, but we calculated that the loss caused by the delay in work due to injury in this year is at most more than 20,000 yuan. We also pay for the various nutritional products that need to be purchased during the recuperation period, but the cost of those nutritional products will not exceed 10,000 at most. These add up to more than 60,000 yuan. It's rare for Boss Lai to be here today, for the sake of Boss Lai's face, our company has made up a whole number, which is 70,000 yuan. ”

"And the problem of disability and labor absenteeism," the vice president said, "According to what we learned from the hospital, although the injury is serious, it is not impossible to cure it." Therefore, the disability of the injured person is only a possibility, and it may not be disabled at all. It is impossible for you to make us pay compensation on the basis of disability right now. ”

"There is also the issue of labor loss," the vice president said, "and it cannot be completely concluded that the injured will be out of labor at this time." ”

As for the standard of compensation, everyone is still quite divided. The question is mainly focused on the subsequent effects of this injury, whether the injured person will cause disability, whether there will be loss of labor, this point cannot be concluded, even if you ask the hospital, the answer of the hospital is uncertain. The surgery hasn't been completed yet, so who knows what the future holds?

In the morning, the negotiation was unsuccessful, and the negotiation continued in the afternoon, but Lai Xiaohu originally planned to eat with Wu Xi at noon, and now it seems that he can't eat. Lai Xiaohu is worried that there will be another accident, in case the two sides can't solve it after he leaves, it won't be good to make trouble again after the last trouble, with him here, at least both sides will control a little. So I decided to just watch them solve the problem here, and then everyone signed the agreement before leaving.

Seeing that there was no way to go to the appointment at noon, Lai Xiaohu could only ask Zhu Xun to call Wu Xi and postpone the meeting to the evening. (To be continued......)
