Chapter Ninety-Seven: Li Erhua
Ji Mingyu and Yu Tingwei stood and watched from afar.
"Did you see the woman at the head?" Ji Mingyu pointed at Li Erhua and showed it to Yu Tingwei.
"Well, I see. ”
"The woman's name is Li Erhua, a famous shrew and thorn head in the factory, since her grandmother's generation, the women in the family have worked in this garment factory, she herself entered the factory at the age of seventeen or eighteen, and now she has been idle for more than ten years. ”
Ji Mingyu said indignantly, "There are many workers like her who rely on their parents and grandparents to make a living in the factory, and they don't work much, so they rely on the factory to support them." ”
Yu Tingwei nodded, this is the legendary iron rice bowl, and many companies finally collapse on these people who do not want to make progress and are idle.
The two were whispering, and saw Xiao Hai, the old factory director whose hair was already half white, reluctantly walked out of the office.
Seeing Xiao Hai appear, these women's emotions became even more excited, if someone hadn't stopped them, these girls wouldn't have stepped forward to grab Xiao Hai's face.
"Everybody be quiet and listen to me. Xiao Hai's thick and heavy voice sounded, "The garment factory transfers individuals, you are laid off, this is not something I can decide alone, I understand your feelings, the factory is sold to individuals, and my factory director also means that I am laid off, I and you are in the same situation, everyone is coming to me for justice now, who can I go to?"
"Director Xiao, what do you mean by this? Who doesn't know that you will retire in a month, what impact will this non-layoff have on you? Besides, we are all old workers who have been working with you for more than ten years, and we don't look for you to find anyone?"
Li Erhua raised her voice and shouted again.
"It's not what I mean to let you be laid off, the factory has been sold, and I'm just standing on the last shift now, and I'll leave as soon as the new factory director takes office, if you just don't want to go, then you just put it on hold, and when the new factory director comes, you can find the new factory director to reason. ”
Xiao Hai waved his hand, reluctantly turned around and entered the office, leaving everyone to continue to shout there.
Xiao Hai has devoted most of his life to this garment factory, witnessing the garment factory step by step towards glory, and step by step into deep disillusionment, now he is about to leave, he is reluctant, but there is nothing he can do, can only leave this unfinished problem to the next factory director.
"Okay, since Xiao Hai can't solve our problem, then we'll wait for the new director to come, and now we won't leave anything. ”
Li Erhua turned to the sisters and said.
"Yes, if we don't leave, this garment factory is our home, why let us leave?
"Yes, I won't leave. ”
Li Erhua shouted like this, and everyone responded in unison.
Yu Tingwei understood from the sidelines, and couldn't help but sweat for the new factory director, this factory is good, but it is also a mess.
"Bell bell bell"
The bell rang for work in the factory, and the people who watched the excitement dispersed and returned to work in the workshop.
"Let's go, let's go in too. ”
Ji Mingyu pulled Yu Tingwei and followed the crowd into the workshop.
Although the factory has been sold to individuals, the orders received before still have to be completed, and there are still so many workers waiting for wages to eat, so no matter how difficult it is, before the new factory director arrives, Xiao Hai still has to plan for everyone's livelihood.
The so-called standing on the last shift, Yu Tingwei thought about it and felt that Xiao Hai was still very principled.
The only order from the factory is to make summer uniforms for an elementary school in Beijing.
Yu Tingwei followed Ji Mingyu to look at the sample clothes, and then looked at the fabric that Ji Mingyu was busy cutting in his hand, "This material is different, right?"
Yu Tingwei touched the sample clothes with one hand and the fabric being used in the workshop with the other hand, the sample clothing material is obviously a more comfortable and soft cotton texture, and the kind of chemical fiber coke material that is slippery to the touch but does not absorb sweat at all is used in the workshop.
"Hey, there's no way, the purchase is just for us like this, and it's not something we can say. ”
Ji Mingyu sighed, but the movements in his hands did not slow down.
"So, you have all these in mind, and when you open a garment factory, you must use reliable and trustworthy people in procurement, otherwise, the purchaser only knows how to eat rebates, and the materials that come back are defective. ”
"Doesn't the factory manager know this? Doesn't he look at the raw materials?"
"Cough, the world is as black as a crow, except for our group of workers, there are layers of kickbacks, anyway, they are all public business, don't take it for nothing. ”
When Yu Tingwei heard this, the corners of her mouth twitched, just this company is not yellow, what kind of enterprise is yellow, and the good impression of the factory director Xiao Hai just now is gone.
This morning, Yu Tingwei learned a lot of things with Ji Mingyu, how to cut, how to use a sewing machine, how to distinguish the grade of clothes, Ji Mingyu shared it with Yu Tingwei without reservation.
At noon, the factory canteen also provides a free lunch.
Yu Tingwei shook her head with emotion, "This factory is like this, and you still eat together?"
Ji Mingyu sneered, "Don't be too happy, just take a look at what you eat." ”
With questions, Yu Tingwei followed Ji Mingyu to the cafeteria, good guy, wowotou and pickle pimples.
Yu Tingwei hasn't eaten Wotou a few times even in Lilac Village.
"Since the efficiency of the factory is so bad, there can be no canteen, and it is not good to set up a canteen for food. ”
Yu Tingwei broke a piece of hard and rough nest head in disgust and put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly, this nest head was far worse than Xiu'e's steaming.
"Why don't you set up a canteen?" Ji Mingyu stared at Yu Tingwei with wide eyes, "If you set up a canteen, you have a reason to spend money!"
"Layers of peeling again?"
Yu Tingwei frowned, no department has to fish for oil and water, and she is also convinced.
"Why don't we go out to eat?"
Ji Mingyu looked at Yu Tingwei's pain and suggested.
"I'll see it," Yu Tingwei nodded, and put the nest head on the plate, "Okay, I'll invite you." ”
"No, I'll ask you this time. ”
Ji Mingyu argued. Yu Tingwei invited herself twice, and this time she had to invite her.
Just as the two got up and were about to leave, Li Erhua led a group of people who made trouble in the morning into the cafeteria.
"You can't eat in the canteen, you've been laid off, and the canteen is not obligated to provide you with lunch. ”
When the old Monday of the canteen saw Li Erhua and others, he hurriedly brought the nest basin into the kitchen.
"What's wrong with us laid off?" Li Erhua was unhappy when she heard it, "Xiao Hai didn't say anything about letting us leave the factory, why didn't you give us food?"
"But, but this canteen doesn't prepare food for you people?" Lao Zhou is a sincere person, there are only a few nests left, give Li Hua them, and the other workers at work can't eat. "Otherwise, you see that there are a lot of pickle gnocchi, but you can't pick up a few pickle lumps, right?"
Yu Tingwei happened to be sitting next to her, and when she heard it, she laughed out of a pig's cry.
This old man is too cute, too upright, the pickle pimple can kill people, not to mention just eating the pickle pimple, even if you eat it with the nest head, you don't dare to bite more once.
"Who are you?" After listening to Lao Zhou's words, Li Erhua was originally very angry, but Yu Tingwei's smile made Li Erhua feel that she was being ridiculed, and the spearhead was pointed at Yu Tingwei, "It's your turn to laugh at the old lady of the yellow-haired girl, where did you come from?"
"I'm new here. ”
Yu Tingwei didn't want to talk nonsense with this kind of shrew, so she took Ji Mingyu's hand and was about to leave.
"Stop!" Li Erhua glanced at Yu Tingwei's nest head that had been gnawed a few bites in the bowl, and was blocking Yu Tingwei and Ji Mingyu's way. "What do you mean, I said? Deliberately, right? Seeing that I Li Erhua can't eat the nest, you can eat it, and show it to me, right?"
"What do you mean by deliberately showing it to you? We were going out to eat, but you happened to run into it yourself, what should we do?"
Ji Mingyu is not good at stubble, and he usually quarrels with this Li Erhua.
"I said Ji Mingyu, it's nothing to do with you, you'd better keep your mouth shut. ”
Ji Mingyu was angry and wanted to reason with Li Erhua, but was dragged by Yu Tingwei and dragged out.
Li Erhua is a person like Yu Tingwei who feels that if she says a word to her, she will lose the price.
"You little girl, I told you to stop and didn't hear it, did you? You tell me to make it clear today before leaving, who do you look down on?"
Li Erhua looked at Yu Tingwei's disdainful expression and became even more angry, and stepped forward to pull Yu Tingwei.
Just as Li Erhua's claws were about to touch Yu Tingwei's collar, a powerful hand flashed in front of Yu Tingwei's eyes and suddenly grabbed Li Erhua's wrist.
