Sixty years with spring

Chapter 244

Initial Taste (3)

The power installation team is still on strike, and signs have been pulled up at the gate, with the bloody words "Give me back my hard-earned money" and three huge exclamation points behind the words. A group of people lined up, with white stripes tied around their heads like Japanese samurai, with relevant slogans written on the front and two pigtails floating behind. There are also those who sit in front of the gate, those who eat boxed lunches, and those who give instructions. These people are familiar with the road to do this kind of thing, and they don't block anything else, only block trucks, and they are allowed to enter but not out. There are already several cement mixer trucks and small trucks blocked outside the door, and the drivers are so confused that they often make a lively noise and whistle for a long time. The power has been cut off at the scene, and many workers and a group of ordinary people who have come here to find work and pick up rags have come to watch the excitement.

Lao Shi didn't know how far the strike had got, and was about to call Wang He, when he saw that Wang He and Lao Chang had already come over.

Lao Shi got out of the car and shook hands with Lao Chang: "What time did you arrive?" ”

Lao Chang smiled innocently, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth and said, "It's not even eight o'clock, and I'm still thinking about doing a day's work today." ”

Lao Shi asked, "How many people did you bring?" ”

Lao Chang replied: "Five, all of them are good hands, you can rest assured about the work, I will come over there (Harbin) as soon as it is completed." ”

Lao Shi nodded and asked, "How is the situation at the construction site over there?" The owner was worried. ”

Lao Chang said confidently: "As long as the glass arrives on time, there will be no mistakes." ”

Old Shi nodded, then looked at Wang He and asked, "What's the situation at the gate?" ”

Wang He said: "The gang engaged in electricity blocked the gate and demanded that the price of materials be increased. ”

When Lao Shi heard the buzzing of his head, he knew that it was broken. He instinctively judged that there must be trouble with the price difference, indicating that Che Hongxuan did not achieve the expected result from Gu Mingyuan, otherwise the power installation team would not continue to make trouble. It's such an eventful place, and it didn't go well.

Wang He continued: "Yesterday, Director Liu found me another place, which is much more spacious than now, and approved 10,000 red bricks to pave the floor, build a kitchen and a toilet. Director Liu also coordinated civil engineering to lend us a batch of scaffolding poles, and I led people to build a simple shed, which has more than 200 square meters. Also, the seafood I brought in has been frozen in the refrigerator, so I found one in the small village next door, and I was going to eat it at night so that it wouldn't spoil. Now that the power is out, several of the workers who are cooking are staying there and asking me what to do. I told them you would come later, and then we would talk about it. ”

Lao Shi asked: "I haven't heard when the group of people blocking the gate will be withdrawn?" ”

Wang He replied, "I haven't heard of it." ”

Lao Shi said: "It's better to wait for the strike to have a result, and then we will have a banquet." ”

Wang He said: "No, I can't put things down." ”

Lao Shi had to reluctantly say: "Then let the cook wait first, in this case, the person we invite is either Party A or the supervisor, and they will not come." Let's eat it ourselves, otherwise we will even kill pigs and buy seafood, won't it all be thrown away in vain? ”

Wang He said: "If we don't call again, I'm afraid it will be too late for us to eat ourselves." ”

Old Shi thought about it and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Hurry up and rent a 10 kilowatt generator and don't delay the evening. ”

Wang He said yes and wanted to leave.

Lao Shi asked: "Is the designer here?" ”

Wang He replied: "I am at the construction site with my technicians. ”

Lao Shi said: "Lao Chang, you go to find the designer, find out the situation on the construction site, and we will study any problems together." Wang He, you go to the gate to see the advertisement and rent a generator. The phone is in my hand, and I may be able to contact you at any time. ”

"Okay." Wang He agreed, and walked to the construction site with Lao Chang.

Old Shi returned to the car in annoyance.

Wang Mei asked, "What's wrong with the construction site?" ”

Lao Shi replied: "The power installation engineering team is on strike. ”

Jiaojiao felt strange and thought to herself, how could there be such a thing? She wanted to come and see what the construction site was like. In her mind, the construction site was a world of tall cranes, and she didn't know what was inside, how the buildings that rose from the ground were built, she didn't know anything. The construction site, which will bring great benefits to the enterprise, made her feel mysterious, and she asked Lao Shi: "Uncle Shi, will this have an impact on us?" ”

"No, it's just a nuisance."

"Can we go to the construction site and have a look?"

"Go ahead, did you see those two people just now? The tall and young man was our engineering captain, named Wang He, who was Che Hongxuan's uncle and nephew; The older one, surnamed Chang, is Che Hongxuan's aunt and brother. Go ahead, I'll make them wait. ”

The two accountants got out of the car curiously.

Lao Shi called Lao Chang and asked him to wait. He stopped and looked back and waited there.

Lao Shi immediately reported the situation to Che Hongxuan.

Che Hongxuan was silent for a while and said, "This is the worst news, it seems that the situation is not good." We originally envisaged that the progress payment and the price difference should be asked together, but it seems very difficult, so we can't settle for the next best thing, and ask for the progress payment first. ”

Lao Shi asked, "What should we do now?" I don't think it will be solved for a while, so why don't you just pull things back? ”

"We can't make such a decision, it comes with financial responsibility. Please ask Party A for everything, and do it according to Party A's arrangement. ”

"Understood."

"You decide these things yourself, you don't have to study them with me."

"Understood."

Lao Shi immediately called Director Liu, but he didn't answer. There was no way, so he had to lock the car and go to the infrastructure office. There was no one in the infrastructure office, so he had to call Xiao Zhang again. Xiao Zhang told him that he was studying the matter of holding an owners' meeting, and asked him to drive to the office building.

Lao Shi hurriedly came back to drive, and saw Zhang Wei waiting in front of the car from afar. He had contact with Zhang Wei yesterday, and at that time he felt strange, the general indoor wires on the construction site are all civil construction, and this construction site alone has another team to construct, which is really incredible. Later, he learned that this was due to the overbearing nature of the electricity department. At this time, he wondered, what would happen to Zhang Wei looking for him?

Zhang Wei said politely: "I'll tell you about the strike." ”

Lao Shi was respectful to this electric tyrant: "Please speak, please speak." ”

"Everyone in the world knows that the price of copper and aluminum has risen this time, and as the two of us who have suffered the most, we must work together, and we must not work hard if we can't get the money. My boss asked me to contact you guys and act together to close the gate. ”

Lao Shi frowned and said, "I asked the company yesterday, but there was no clear answer, so it's not easy to do." ”

Zhang Wei smiled and said: "You are from other places, and you don't know much about the situation in ancient cities, so don't be fooled." It's easy to say that you don't do anything, and if you want money after the work is done, there is no door! ”

Lao Shi felt strange, and in order to cater to him, he deliberately asked: "Everyone knows that the price of materials has risen, and no one can do it without making up the money, the leaders here won't deal with the problem like this, right?" ”

Zhang Wei smiled and said: "Either you don't understand, this place has never been stable since it was engaged in martial arts, and it will definitely not be able to do some decent business without a gang." The officials are even more like that, the world is as black as a crow, and all of them are full of fat. Zhang Wei looked around, lowered his voice and said, "I heard that the head of the development zone is even more powerful, sending his wife and children abroad, spending all day drinking, being a groom every day, entering the cave room every night, and shooting (shooting) is enough." These are the people who can do things for us? So, don't believe it, don't believe it, you have to force the money out! ”

Lao Shi said: "I think what you said is very reasonable, I will ask the company as soon as possible." ”

"I want you to bring the workers to the gate immediately, unload the things at the gate, and block the road. Don't hesitate, don't miss the opportunity! Let me tell you clearly, here, support the bold and starve the faint-hearted. ”

"Thank you for your concern, I'll ask for instructions immediately."

Zhang Wei saw that Lao Shi asked for instructions on the left and on the right, as if he had a prevarication, waved his hand and left.

Old Shi can see that Zhang Wei is unhappy, but what can be done to make this old man happy? He was confused, so he drove to the office building.

Outside the large conference room on the third floor of the office building of the development zone, Lao Shi waited helplessly for about an hour before Director Liu took the notepad and walked out unhurriedly, shook hands with Lao Shi and said, "The boss has entered the mountain, and I can't contact him, so I can only wait." Now I can tell you clearly that there will be no problems on the construction site, and I hope that you will make clever arrangements in the current complex situation so as not to affect the construction period. ”

Old Shi asked anxiously, "What should we do now?" Hundreds of people, how much does it cost to lose work a day? You can't wait for the incoming car, who can afford it? ”

Director Liu said: "You can figure out a way for yourself, if you can't find a place to unload it outside." ”

"That will increase costs, such as lost work costs, venue rental fees, product storage fees, and secondary handling fees, which are not small numbers. Also, the steel frames that come in later are all raw materials, and they need to be processed tomorrow, which is all difficult. ”

"You don't have to say that, the boss will think about it. Such a big project has been handed over to you, and you can't afford this risk? ”

"I have to sign the bill, otherwise I won't be able to explain."

"What are you talking about about this? How did you get in, you don't know? I can promise you verbally, but I can't sign it. Our boss, you don't know, he is most disgusted that his subordinates make decisions without consulting him. ”

"Okay then." There was no way, Lao Shi had to reluctantly agree.

Xiao Zhang ran over and told Lao Shi to hurry back to the construction site, there was a fight over there.

Old Shi didn't care, because he never believed that his own people would do such a thing. But he was wrong, and the people who fought were indeed his people.

It turned out that after Director Xie brought the car to the construction site, he saw that the gate was blocked, so he got out of the car to theorize and asked to put the car pulling the goods in.

Wang He grabbed Director Xie and said, "Master, I heard that these people are not easy to mess with, so let's wait." ”

"What? I don't believe it, they can still eat people? Director Xie threw his arm in and reasoned with others.

There is a second stunned man in the group of people who blocked the gate, his heart is not complete, and he is half paid into the water, where does he care about your age, he is not allowed to enter without discussion.

Director Xie is also a person who likes to join in the fun, and he also wears an armband to lead the shouting of slogans during the movement, so he talks about reasoning there. After three words and two words, he was beaten by an electric cannon and his face was covered with blood, he lay on the ground and rolled a few times, sat up and cried.

Some of those who blocked the door were not working, they were striking professional teams, who specialized in eating this bowl of rice, and they came here to block the gate at a clear price, 200 yuan per person per day. In order not to smash the business, these people will not give face to anyone, otherwise they will not be able to mix on the road.

The second stunned saw Director Xie sitting on the ground and scolded vigorously, pointed to his nose and said, "I'll count three, if you don't get out of the way for me, I'll hit your hometown!" ”

Director Xie ignored him at all, and still scolded: "I'm older than your parents, and you dare to beat me?" ”

The second stunned man stepped forward and picked up the collar of Director Xie, pointed to his nose and shouted, "Do you want to get out?" Don't rely on the old and sell the old! ”

At this time, Wang He ran over, grabbed the hair of the second stunned man, and shouted loudly: "Stop me!" ”

The second stunned stretched out his hand and wanted to fight, but Wang He had great strength and knocked him over with one punch.

Seeing this, several of the people blocking the gate rushed over and stretched out their hands to strike. Wang He has several worshippers under him, all of whom are good at fighting, and they will fight with a wave of their hands, and they will beat those people with punches and kicks.

A well-wisher told Wang He: "Hurry up and run, these people will immediately call a large group of people, all of them outlaws." ”

Wang He saw the formation and waited at the gate with a large group of workers.

Sure enough, within half an hour, a dozen taxis drove over, and a group of people jumped out of the taxi, raising sticks and shouting and beating without asking questions.

Wang He's buddies did not show weakness, waved their shiny shovels and slapped them head-on, and after a few strokes, they had knocked down three or four of them, fell to the ground and pretended to be dead.

By the time Lao Shi arrived, Wang He and Director Xie had been controlled by the police, and the few who were beaten on the ground had already gotten up and ran when they heard that the police were coming.

Lao Shi hurriedly asked Pony Xiaozhang to save people on behalf of Party A, and then called Che Hongxuan. Che Hongxuan called Zhang Dahua, and Zhang Dahua only inquired about the matter when he heard that it was Che Hongxuan's father-in-law, and the Public Security Bureau agreed to release the person after the situation was clearly implemented.

Lao Shi arranged the workers and took Lao Hao to rent a place. Not far away, there is a place called Sun's Orchard that is very spacious and rented for a month. Lao Shi asked Lao Hao to rent a 50-kilowatt generator and prepare to work tomorrow.

Several trucks followed the old Shi car to the Sun family orchard, and the workers were preparing to unload the truck, but they didn't expect a group of shrews and old people to come, and they surrounded the truck to forcibly unload the truck.

Lao Hao asked loudly: "What are you doing here, do you want to rob it?" ”

Someone said, "The land has been expropriated, so you have to let us have a bowl of rice to eat, right?" ”

Old Shi's head was buzzing, and he was about to have a seizure, when the pony spoke: "Just let them unload, no one can solve this local rule." In the future, no one will take care of you loading trucks here, but if you pull things to the construction site, they will have to unload them, otherwise you won't be able to do your work. ”

Old Shi Chang sighed and said, "Why are all strange things here? ”

Pony said, "It's all trivial. I'll tell you, the banquet will be as usual in the evening, so I'll move here to eat. To add a table, there are several representatives of the owners who are coming. ”

Lao Shi asked: "Those people who fought won't come to make trouble, right?" ”

Xiao Ma smiled and said: "No, just now a few old comrades have already gone to the city government, I heard that the city leaders have intervened, and they will start to arrest people at night." ”

Old Shi nodded.

That night, Sun's orchard was brightly lit and lively, and everyone drank until midnight.

When it was almost twelve o'clock, Lao Shi went to the Public Security Bureau, cleaned up the place at the bottom of the stairs and put mops and combs, and took out Director Xie and Wang He, who were not ghosts.

As soon as Director Xie came out, he scolded him, so angry that the little policeman pulled him to the door of the bathroom and buckled him to the heating pipe. It wasn't until Che Hongxuan called Zhang Dahua again that Zhang Dahua found the director and released Director Xie.

The next day, according to Che Hongxuan's arrangement, Lao Shi and Zhang Wei contacted each other and asked Wang He to lead the workers to join the strike.

Due to the severe development of the situation, Party A had to come forward to coordinate and let the two teams resume construction, and will give a satisfactory answer to the problem of material price increase in the near future.

Zhang Wei discussed with Lao Shiyi and decided to take a step back to resume construction and wait for Party A's reply.
