Chapter 114 Fuse
In a few days, the young widow was almost recovered from her injuries. She didn't say hello and left without even paying her wages, which touched everyone a lot. However, what happened immediately afterwards became the fuse for everyone's concentrated emotions.
On work that morning, I suddenly couldn't hear the machine. The noise of the vehicles was silent. Everyone saw the drivers and technicians climbing up and down the vehicles in a hurry, sweating profusely, but they all looked strange and nervous. After a while, all the construction vehicles were still stuck, and the excavators, forklifts, etc. could not catch fire and stopped food.
While everyone was confused, Yan Defa and other foremen were called to the office of the prefabricated house for a meeting. Not long after, Comrade Yan notified everyone with a heavy expression on his face that the project volume increased significantly because the construction vehicles were broken, but the construction period could not be delayed, so please let everyone know.
This is undoubtedly a very bad news. It is not too late to replace machines with manual labor even if it is day and night. Besides, there is insufficient staff. This is nonsense. The crowd buzzed and someone immediately gave up the run. This little wage is still a waste of money. Isn’t it? I’m quitting.
Just like an infectious disease, with the leader, there will be a second, a third... the nth one, and half of the people will be gone in a short while. Yan Defa knew that everyone was in a bad mood during this period, but he did not expect it to be so popular. Obviously, he was mentally inadequate, but it was not convenient to get angry immediately. He was not enough staff, and many people left one after another, which was a waste of money!
But Lao Yan was still calm and had not only ten days or half a month to work as a contractor, so this little storm can still withstand. This accident may not be all bad things. It is just right to take the opportunity to get some extra wages for everyone. If it is not bad, it is required to settle the project funds on schedule. The project progress has not been completed. That is the reason why the equipment is broken and it has nothing to do with me, Lao Yan.
Yan Defa has a little bit of a blessing in disguise, and his heart has been hanging for a few days, but he seems a little more at ease. As for those who give up, you can do your job slowly. You can't just leave after throwing away your wages in vain, right? He is a farmer and knows the ideas of migrant workers. In addition, there are many hard-core fellow villagers who help. I believe it is not too difficult to convince these people. If it really doesn't work, kill one or two thorns, and killing chickens and scaring monkeys.
However, Yan Defa's expressive agitation, sensationalism and even promises did not play much role. Everyone seemed to be determined this time, and they were lazy and responded few, especially the performance of several hard-core fellow villagers disappointed him. One even raised the question of asking for additional overtime pay.
This issue is more sensitive to Yan Defa. He was thinking about this with several foremen, and the workplace also showed signs of letting go, but the problem was that Lao Yan wanted to use it for other purposes. He urgently needed to increase his treatment and accelerate the recruitment. He had not made up his mind in the end, so he obviously could not disclose any news at this time.
The nonsense I, Lao Yan, would try my best to win from the construction site leaders, would definitely not be able to deal with everyone. More and more people joined the ranks of giving up. They threw away the tools and went back to the shed to sleep.
At this critical moment, a few newcomers performed unexpectedly. They were almost uninfluenced by the people ahead. They picked up the guys without saying a word and started working. Li Tianchou was the one who followed him, and the brothers Da Kun and the other two Kun were so excited that they almost burst into tears.
Li Tianchou's idea is very simple. It is ideal to choose this place as a temporary hiding place. And he has food to eat and it is natural to work. He also felt that there are many problems in the construction site, but judging from his experience of working, Yan Defa is generally kind-hearted, and he will not suffer a big loss with such a boss.
The Dakun brothers' ideas are even simpler. First, they heard that the foreman never owes wages, which is rare. Second, they are new and cannot figure out the situation. They like to get along with Li Tianchou very much. After Erkun encouraged him, the two brothers got together.
With the example of these three people, the other standing people hesitated and joined the ranks of work one after another. The construction site was clear and there were no idle people standing there. They either went back or worked hard. Yan Defa secretly remembered Li Tianchou, a young man. He winked at the other young foremen, and several people hurried to the shed.
At lunch time, Li Tianchou and his group of workers were very particular about the food they got. Not only did they have braised pork for extra meals, but they also had iced drinks. This was the first time. Old Donggua could not be so generous, and it was no need to think that it was Yan Defa's instruction.
This made a group of people who went back to the shed to sleep and were very jealous, but they were also ignorant. Who asked you to sleep and others to do their jobs?
The treatment is unfair and really annoying. Two people who are so angry that they put the white water-boiled food on the ground in front of the old winter melon. The old winter melon smiled relaxedly and swept the food on the ground clean at a speed of lightning. I let you go. When I regret it, I won’t even give you the one on the ground!
Yan Defa's trick is actually very amazing. Many people who gave up are shaken. Although it is unfair, it is obvious that Lao Yan is serious this time. I can't guarantee that there is a lot of wages to get when working overtime. Speaking from the facts, seeing that the food of these people working is different, it shows that Lao Yan is very confident.
The way of working in the afternoon changed a lot. Except for two or three people who still insisted on sleeping, all migrant workers worked honestly. Yan Defa was very happy and had to strike while the iron was hot and take advantage of the situation to rectify them. In a while, the ultimatum was given to those thorns and get out if they didn't accept the rules. Although they were all fellow villagers who brought them out, serious discipline was very important.
Well, then find some time to talk to this young man named Li Tianchou as soon as possible. I can't tell that the young man is quite prestigious and can be cultivated, which will definitely be useful. Thinking of this, Yan Defa couldn't help but hate him. Sometimes the villagers in this country are unreliable.
Yan Defa knows how to master the heat. He can’t tell whether he works normally during the day, and working overtime at night is the key. Whether he can have a good start depends entirely on the heat. The so-called importance of kindness and power, eliminating the thorns and supporting caring people must be fast.
He got off work in the evening and before dinner was over, Li Tianchou was called away by Yan Defa. Although it was a little sudden, he followed without hesitation.
Yan Defa lived in a place where he lived was separated from a mobile house. Although it was very small, it was at least an independent space. Old Yan personally made a cup of tea for Li Tianchou for the first time, and his face was full of smiles.
After thinking for a while, Li Tianchou guessed that it might be related to work in the morning. But he was not in a hurry to ask, and smiled and waited for Lao Yan to speak first.
"Haha, brothers Li are good. They have served as soldiers and are of high quality." Yan Defa first praised it, with a bit of a tone of a grassroots cadre. He traveled around the world as a contractor and had rich experience. The accent of this grassroots cadre is well-educated. Although he had never eaten pork, he still saw pigs.
"Where is the award, Uncle Fa is too much." As expected, such an opening remark confirmed his conjecture. The key words lie behind. Of course, Li Tianchou still needs to be humble.
"I won't talk about it if you go around the corner. I know the general matter in the morning and have helped me, so I still know what I have done. I am trying my best to get overtime treatment for everyone. It's just a temporary difficulty, but this night... I need you to support me more. Uncle Defa will not treat everyone badly." It seems that time is tight, so Yan Defa is simply straightforward.
Li Tianchou smiled slightly and was naturally prepared. "Uncle Defa, it is normal to work with money, and there is no question of help. However, I personally think that it is necessary to provide benefits to everyone, not just verbal efforts, otherwise I will not have any effect if I help."
Pharaoh Yan De blushed. Although he felt a little unhappy, he knew very well what Li Tianchou was saying, so he was very confused.
If he can get some money, he wants to spend most of it on improving recruitment benefits, so that he can quickly solve the problem of insufficient staff, which is also Yan Defa's most troublesome problem at present.
But the same will cause two contradictions. One is that the overtime salary is too low and cannot stimulate everyone to work. The other is that the obvious unfairness of wages between new and old people in the future will intensify the conflict and may even cause major problems.
So Yan Defa has been undecided, but he has to solve it one thing, otherwise all the problems will be piled up and life will not be passed. He prefers to increase recruitment benefits and get enough people first to do things. After the conflicts in the future, as long as the wages can be completed on time, the mud and each one can be solved.
If this idea is implemented, the key point is that Li Tianchou and others will continue to play the role of role model and make do with overtime work first. Even if only a small half of them work hard, it is good. Lao Yan, I will gradually make some sweet things, not afraid that the remaining people will not submit. Yan can easily capture these small measures, and the potential of migrant workers is endless.
But Li Tianchou blocked his words as soon as he opened his mouth, as if he had already seen his mind. This surprised Yan Defa. He couldn't see that the young man was quite knowledgeable. He coughed a few times, "What I said is that I, Old Yan, have a personality guarantee and will do my best to get overtime wages for everyone. But things are difficult and need to be done step by step. Many brothers don't understand, so I want to give it to someone like you to a brief moment."
This was a foggy thing. Since you have expressed your opinion, what else can you tell me? Li Tianchou was quick-thinking and immediately realized that Yan Defa had a difficult time. He remained silent, "Uncle Defa made every effort to fight for everyone. I believe that my brothers will understand it. It's just a matter of time. If you don't go to work at night, I will do my best to do my best and work hard."
Yan Defa nodded uncontrollably, "That's good, that's good."
But Li Tianchou changed his tone, "Uncle Fa, I can't hold back some things. Say it casually, don't take it to your heart."
Yan Defa was stunned when he heard this, but when he saw that Li Tianchou had already spoken, he had to nod.
"First of all, on behalf of my brother who worked in the morning, I thank Uncle Defa for his kindness. Everyone is so happy. But I want to say that this extra meal is only one time, and it will be all the time to order it. But in the long run, it is better to serve a bowl of water." Li Tianchou's words were more direct. Yan Defa listened, and the expression on his face had begun to stiffen, but the ninja did not say anything.
"Second, I just arrived not long ago and I don't quite understand many things, but one thing I was impressed by. Everyone has the mood of working overtime is not only because of wages, but anyone with discerning eyes can see that safety issues are not guaranteed, and no matter how many people they recruit, they cannot keep them."
Yan Defa's face became darker the more he listened to, but he had to admit that the young man's words were very insightful and every sentence hit the point. It seemed that even the little Jiujiu in his heart was trembling intentionally or unintentionally. (To be continued)
