"Hey, what's going on here?"

Before coming to the Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant, Wang Lu hurriedly asked, the gate was completely blocked, and if his men and horses wanted to enter it, they were afraid that it would take a lot of effort.

Su Quan glared at Wang Quanbin with reproachful eyes, and shouted, "What about you, haven't you carefully explained what happened?"

"Otherwise, how could it be like this? Sheriff Wang, you are the master of the blue sky, you can't let go of those mobs. Wang Quanbin hurriedly explained.

"Let's talk about what Qingchenggu is all about, don't always be a mob. You know, they're all the people of Chang'an City. Wang Lu was disgusted, because the last textile factory massacre caused him not to be very interested in these profiteers.

Wang Quanbin was startled and hurriedly said: "Alas. I didn't expect it, and Sun Peng didn't know what to do, so he suddenly led the workers in the factory to start a rebellion, not only controlling all the equipment in the factory, but also being driven out. If I hadn't escaped in time, I was afraid that they would have been arrested by them. ”

"Sun Peng?"

Wang Lu pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Then tell me, why did this Sun Peng do such a thing? After all, people must have a reason to do things, don't they?"

"I'm not Sun Peng, how do I know? And if that guy was secretly instructed by others, it is not impossible to do such a thing. After all, our factory is a first-class arsenal, and most of the weapons in the army are produced by this factory. Wang Quanbin meant something, and the implication seemed to be to show that Sun Peng was instructed by the Song Dynasty or the Mongols.

From the position of the Song Dynasty and the Mongols, there was naturally enough motivation to destroy the arsenal.

Wang Lu was skeptical, and replied with a cold snort: "Maybe, but before there is evidence, you can't talk nonsense, understand?"

"I already know this, and I will not lie. Wang Quanbin replied.

Su Quan was a little impatient and asked, "Let's not talk about this first, Sergeant Wang." Are you sure enough to breach this steel plant?"

"Well, it's not impossible. However, according to the current situation, I am afraid that the casualties will not be small. ”

Wang Lu shook his head and pointed to the workers patrolling the factory: "You have also seen that these workers are holding guns in their hands, although there are only a small number of them, but they are also quite tricky. No way, this factory can produce munitions, not as much as anywhere else. ”

Su Quan sighed and replied, "If that's the case, can we just watch this factory fall into the hands of the mob?"

Su Quan was really afraid of Sun Peng's purpose, for fear that the other party's purpose was to destroy the entire factory, if this was the case, then his loss would be miserable, at least millions of dollars, and the most important thing was the next layout.

Without this steel plant, the share of the Red Phoenix Army's replacement of munitions and the demand for the construction of the third phase of the railway would not be able to meet the demand.

The Su family may also decline!

"No way, at least for us, if we want to take this factory, it's really difficult. Wang Lu shook his head and replied: "Unless the Central Guard Army is dispatched, it will not be able to be suppressed at all." ”

"Is this possible?" Su Quan hesitated.

If you want to use the army, you will definitely not be able to spare Xiao Feng, and Xiao Feng will also know about this at that time, and her attitude towards the whole thing is also ambiguous, after all, the other party is currently only occupying the factory, and has not yet made the next move.

While the three of them were thinking, the door slowly opened, and a man came out of it.

"Who are you?"

Su Quan was suspicious between his eyebrows and asked in a low voice.

"In Xia Feng Gao, he was added as the bookkeeper in the previous days. Feng Gao bowed to the three of them, and then said, "Now I came out to negotiate terms with a few people." ”

"Negotiate conditions? A mob dares to make conditions with us?" Wang Quanbin was very disdainful and scolded directly.

Su Quan glared, Wang Quanbin shrank down at this time, immediately looked at Feng Gao, and asked, "What do you mean by talking about conditions?"

As a member of the parliament, Su Quan has not talked to others about conditions, but they are all existences at the same level as himself, and the need to face the person in front of him today makes him feel a little weird.

"It's literal, I hope to be able to negotiate terms with you, and only if we agree to our conditions, we will give up resistance and work again. Feng Gao laughed.

Wang Quanbin replied: "Joke, first occupy the entire factory, and then say that it is to negotiate conditions? Do you know what you are doing? It is a rebellion! You still think that you can negotiate conditions with us, it is a real joke." ”

"Rebellion? Director Wang, can you say that about us! This time, we only occupied the factory, and we did not hurt others, let alone disturb social order, so how can it be regarded as a rebellion, it can only be said that it is a strike. Feng Gao's face was serious, correcting Wang Quanbin's mistake, and then said: "And Director Wang, you should understand why we did this." Isn't it?"

"It's-"

Wang Quanbin was speechless for a while, but he didn't know how to continue.

Su Quan was surprised, and looked sideways: "Wang Quanbin, what is going on?"

"That's right. Tell me why, and if so, I will do justice to you. Wang Lu persuaded.

However, Wang Quanbin didn't say anything except keep his mouth shut.

Thinking about all this, Feng Gao sneered: "Hmph." In order to increase the output of the steel mills, you forced the workers to work for eight hours in a row, never allowed to rest, and even withheld the food that was given to us, filling their own pockets, and the food in the canteen could not even fill their stomachs, and many of them spoiled their bodies. What kind of good factory director are you like this?"

"What?"

Su Quan was taken aback for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "What you said, but is it true?"

Feng Gao raised his chin slightly and replied, "What I said is true, is there any falsehood?"

Wang Lu also reproached: "Just like you, isn't it the officials who force the people to rebel? No wonder they hate you to the core, if it were me, I would have to scold you." ”

was scolded by the two of them for a while, but Wang Quanbin refused to give up, and shouted with a stalk on his neck: "Everyone does this, what can I do? If not, what kind of money can I earn?"

Su Quan was stunned, and his brows furrowed secretly.

To be honest, the investment in this steel plant is huge, and their Su family spent more than one million dollars in order to be able to build this steel plant, and they have not recovered the original until now.

Feng Gao couldn't bear it anymore, and scolded loudly: "Hmph." If you don't resist, I'm afraid that sooner or later we'll be crushed into dry corpses by guys like you. Although he is the chief bookkeeper, he has also been in the steel mill for a long time, and he also empathizes with the plight of the workers in the factory.

Wang Quanbin looked disdainful and continued to complain: "Hmph. If it weren't for the fact that Master Su stretched out his hand, you untouchables, I am afraid that you will still stay in the poor countryside and gnaw mud. ”

"You are really shameless enough. Let me ask you, who produced the machines in the factory, who operated them? If it weren't for their labor, do you think you would be able to stand here like a dog? Should we be beaten like beggars with your brazenness?" Feng Gao retorted.

When Su Quan heard this, he was also annoyed, and shouted in a low voice: "Wang Quanbin, don't be embarrassed here, let me get out." ”

Wang Lu also shook his head again and again, full of disdain for Wang Quanbin.

With Wang Quanbin's management style, it would be strange if there was no chaos.

In desperation, Wang Quanbin had no choice but to say goodbye to a few people and leave here.

Su Quan looked at Feng Gao again and asked, "You said you are here to negotiate the conditions? Then tell me, what are the conditions?" At the moment, he doesn't know anything about the inside of the factory, and he behaves like this in order to be able to stall for time.

"It's simple. Reduced the eight-hour working time to four hours. The workers are so tired that they can't support themselves at all, they are also human beings, and of course they need to rest. Isn't it?" Feng Gao replied.

Su Quan pondered for a moment, then said, "Is that it?"

"Of course not. We also demand that there be trade unions in the factories, and that there must be representatives of our workers, and if the factory director treats us badly, the factory director can be dismissed directly. People like Wang Quanbin must be excluded!" Feng Gao continued.

"Unions?"

Su Quan squinted his eyes slightly, and read it a few times in his mouth.

Obviously, this so-called trade union was modeled after the parliament, and it was all forbidden to managers such as factory directors, and it is a bit powerful that the people in front of me came up with this.

Feng Gao replied, "That's right, the trade union. You must allow us to hold a trade union meeting and be supervised by our trade union meeting. Otherwise, things like the little third son will continue to appear, won't they?"

"I see, I see. ”

Su Quan nodded, and replied modestly: "But you should also know that this steel plant is not owned by my Su family alone, there are still many people investing, and I have to get their promise, right? After all, if you accept your conditions, I am afraid that the efficiency of the factory will drop by at least fifty percent." ”

Feng Gao frowned slightly, and then replied: "Of course you can, but you should know that if you don't accept our conditions, then this factory will definitely not be handed over to you." Do you understand?"

"Of course!"

Su Quan nodded, already understanding the other party's determination.

This time, if they did not agree, the workers would not have relinquished control of the factory.
