Chapter 949: Dismissal
After a while, Zhao Er came to the official mansion, explained his intention to the guards, and saw Chu Ze, who listened to Zhao Er's report, and said after a while, "The safety of workers is the most important. You go back and tell the officials who supervised the work, Li Changji and others, and tell them to strengthen safety management and not have such an important accident again." "Yes, lord!" Zhao Er responded.
Chu Ze said, "Those injured workers must be treated well. The cost is paid by the government, and they cannot be allowed to have any worries." Zhao Er expressed, "Lord Wang, you are so merciful! Let's do it!" Back at the construction site, Zhao Er conveyed Chu Ze's instructions one by one.
When Li Changji heard this, he nodded again and again, and said, "The prince of Chu is really a Ming Jun! We must do a good job and live up to his expectations!"
In the days that followed, safety management on the site became more stringent.
Li Changji inspected every link in detail, for fear that something would go wrong.
The workers have also improved their education and are more cautious in their work.
In this way, under the supervision of Li Changji and Zhao Er, and with the hard work of the workers, when the last brick was laid, the construction of the first factory in Fengyang Industrial Zone was nearing completion.
A few days later, Chu Ze stood in front of the first factory that had just been built, with a smile of relief on his face.
This is one of his dreams, a key step in the grand blueprint of modernizing Fengyang City.
"Zhao Er, look, how magnificent our factory is! It's the fruit of your hard work." Chu Ze patted Zhao Er's shoulder and said sincerely.
Zhao Er also smiled, he wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said proudly, "Lord Wang, this is all the credit of your wise leadership. With an adult like you, you are even more motivated to be a subordinate." Chu Zehuan smiled happily.
Zhang Hu watched Chu Ze leave, and the flattery on his face gradually faded, replaced by an expression that seemed to be eager to try.
He calculated that if he could complete it ahead of schedule, then he would have made a great contribution in front of Chu Ze.
Here, he couldn't hold back the joy in his heart.
"Li Changji, Zhao Er, you two come here." Zhang Hu greeted.
Seeing the workers nervously busy, his heart was full of anticipation for the future.
Li Changji and Zhao Er hurriedly came to Zhang Hu.
He turned to Zhang Hu, the supervisor beside him, and said, "Lord Zhang, the next construction of the industrial zone is up to you. We must urge the workers to step up construction and strive to complete the task as soon as possible." Zhang Hu hurriedly nodded and said, "Don't worry, the prince will definitely supervise the work in a proper way and complete the task with quality and quantity." Chu Ze nodded with satisfaction, said a few more words, and left the construction site with the group.
I only heard Zhang Hu say: "From today onwards, we will work overtime to complete the construction of the industrial zone ahead of schedule. When you preach to the workers, say that if you finish the task on time, you will be rewarded with their money." Zhao Er looked back and said, "My lord, I'm afraid this is not good. The workers are already working hard, and I guess they will not be able to bear it if they work overtime." "Fart!" Zhang Hu glared at Zhao Er and scolded, "What do you know? This is the task assigned by the prince, how do you let us explain to the prince?" Li Changji pulled Zhao Er on the side, and hurriedly said, "Yes, Zhao Er, what the adults said makes sense. Let's do it." Zhao Er was helpless, so he had to nod.
In the days that followed, the atmosphere on the construction site became increasingly tense.
Workers work overtime and have little time to rest.
"I can't pass this day!" One worker was indignant and said, "How can we work like this because we are not animals?" "That's it, this official really doesn't treat us as human beings." Another worker chimed in.
For a time, the workers complained.
Seeing this, Zhao Er decided to go to Chu Ze for help.
"Lord, it's not good!" Zhao Er came to Chu Ze's mansion and said repeatedly: "The workers are on strike, and they won't do anything." When Chu Ze heard this, his face suddenly sank.
"What's going on? Didn't you let Zhang Hu supervise the work well?" Zhao Er told the story of the incident in 1510.
After hearing this, Chu Ze was furious and immediately summoned Zhang Hu.
Zhang Hu came to Chu Ze tremblingly, and before he could speak, Chu Ze angrily scolded, "Zhang Hu, are you here? I asked you to supervise the work, not for you to call the workers as animals!" Zhang Hu laughed again and again: "The prince is angry, and his subordinates are also for the project to be completed as soon as possible." "Fart!" Chu Ze slapped the table and shouted, "Don't you want the whole project to be ruined? Get out of here and reflect on it!" Zhang Hu retreated in disgrace.
After calming down for a while, Chu Ze's heart was still very angry.
He couldn't have imagined that Zhang Hu would be so ignorant of the people's will, only caring about his own future, and completely ignoring the lives of the people.
He immediately summoned Wang Liang, another official of the Ministry of Works.
"Wang Liang, you immediately go to the construction site and take over Zhang Hu's position." Chu Ze said in a deep voice: "I want you to announce to the workers that Zhang Hu has been removed from his post and investigated, and the workers' wages will be increased by half from now on, and the working hours will still be the same as before. We must calm everyone's emotions and let the construction site return to normal as soon as possible." Wang Liang took the order and left.
He came to the construction site and gathered everyone to announce Chu Ze's order.
"Brothers, Zhang Hu, that bastard who doesn't know how to sympathize with his subordinates, has been dismissed by the prince! From today onwards, I, Wang Liang, will take over his position. The prince cares about you, and specially orders us to increase our wages by half from now on, and the working hours remain unchanged." "Really? The prince is wise!" "Well, we're saved!" The workers cheered and praised Chu Ze's benevolent act.
Li Changji and Zhao Er also breathed a sigh of relief.
They secretly admired Chu Fuze's determination and courage.
"Zhao Er, the construction work of the industrial zone can finally be entered." Li Changji patted Zhao Er's shoulder and said with emotion: "If it weren't for the wisdom of the prince, I'm afraid that our construction site would be chaotic." Zhao Er nodded, and said with a pleased smile on his face, "Yes, the prince is worthy of being our backbone. With him, we don't have to worry about anything." Wang Liang saw that everyone's mood was stable, so he began to arrange the next work and said, "Okay brothers, what should we do. The construction period has been delayed for so many days, so hurry up and catch up, and everyone will work together to complete the project on time!" "Okay!" The workers threw themselves into the construction with high morale.
In the following days, under Wang Liang's supervision, the atmosphere on the construction site became more and more harmonious.
The work is more intense, and people can often hear their laughter.
