Chapter 344 Expansion(1/2)
Author: Xiangdongxiangdong
"What, you mean the next batch of orders needs to be delayed?"
"Yes, there are only more than 200 temporary workers in the poverty alleviation workshop.
Your Runhua Company has significantly increased the number of orders. Our production capacity is limited and we cannot deliver on time."
The Hong Kong-style tea in Yang Shirley's mouth suddenly lost its flavor.
When she received a call from Mr. Yang last night, she assured her that the order would be delivered on time and would not delay the company's deployment in North America.
Now the director of the poverty alleviation workshop suddenly told her that the order could not be delivered in time due to a lack of enough workers.
How should she report this to Mr. Yang?
Yang Xueli put down the egg tart in her hand, picked up a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her mouth, took a deep look at Li Weidong, and said slowly.
"Comrade Li Weidong, as far as I know, your poverty alleviation workshop adopts an eight-hour work system, right?"
"That's right." Li Weidong nodded.
Yang Xueli's eyes widened: "Why not let the workers work overtime? In our port city, the working hours of workers are at least twelve hours. When encountering urgent production tasks, the working hours can reach fifteen hours."
Li Weidong shrugged: "Sorry, our workers are our own."
"One of our own" Yang Xueli savored these three words.
"Ms. Yang may have been in the mainland for some time, and she should also know that there is an essential difference between workers in the mainland and workers in Hong Kong. Their wages may not be as high as those in Hong Kong, but they are the real owners of the factory, and Hong Kong
The workers in the city can only be regarded as tools." Li Weidong said lightly, with a hint of disdain in his tone.
Shirley Yang was silent.
The Yang family has several factories in Hong Kong City. In the annual budget expenditure, workers' wages are calculated together with the factory's machine consumption.
In the factory, the only power of workers is to work.
After they finish their work, the factory pays them, but other than that, the two have nothing to do with each other.
Oh, not really.
When some workers become disabled due to injuries, the factory will randomly spend some money to get rid of them.
If workers dare to cause trouble, the factory owner will pay the association to intervene.
In the Mainland, the situation is completely different.
If a worker becomes disabled due to injury, the factory will not only let his relatives take over the job, but also pay disability benefits on time every month.
Compared with the treatment of workers in the mainland, the treatment of workers in Hong Kong City is really on a par with heaven.
After Shirley Yang came to the mainland, she always felt that the mainland was poorer than the Hong Kong city.
There are no high-rise buildings, no busy traffic, no colorful neon lights, and no brightly lit hotels.
But what does all this have to do with ordinary workers?
After returning to the mainland, Shirley Yang could not figure out one thing.
Why are workers in the Mainland wearing tattered old work clothes, thin and unsatisfactory in life, but their eyes can shine with hope?
But the eyes of the workers in the port city were empty and dull.
There is such a big difference between the two. In the final analysis, it is because of status.
For mainland workers, they are the owners of the factory and own everything in the factory.
This is beyond the reach of workers in the port city.
After figuring out the joints, Yang Xueli said sincerely.
"Thank you, Comrade Li Weidong."
"."
Li Weidong was a little confused about Yang Xueli's gratitude.
However, it's always nice to be thanked.
"Let's continue discussing the production capacity of poverty alleviation workshops." Li Weidong raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
It was almost time to go to work. As the workshop director, he had to attend the morning meeting in the workshop.
"Comrade Li Weidong, you must have had an idea when you came to me early in the morning, right?" Yang Xueli said with a smile.
She knew Li Weidong well. Without a solution to the problem, Li Weidong would not visit him early in the morning.
"Ms. Yang, that's it. I hope you can convince the comrades in the ministry."
Li Weidong briefly told Yang Shirley his thoughts.
After hearing this, Yang Xueli nodded in agreement: "Comrade Li Weidong, I understand your concerns, don't worry.
I will go to the ministry in the morning to discuss this matter with the comrades in the ministry."
After receiving Yang Xueli's assurance, Li Weidong was relieved.
Now the comrades in the ministry are pointing to the use of solar panels to earn foreign exchange, and the Yang family has come forward.
The expansion of the poverty alleviation workshop.
That's it.
Just as Li Weidong predicted.
At almost noon, he received a notice and came to Director Yang's office.
Inside the office.
Director Yang looked very excited, his gray hair standing on end.
Seeing Li Weidong come in, he rushed over and grabbed Li Weidong's hand tightly: "Comrade Weidong, it's a great thing. Comrades from the ministry have just informed me that after their research and discussion, they decided to expand the scale of our poverty alleviation workshop."
"Really? This is indeed good news." Li Weidong smiled: "I just don't know what the scale of this expansion is?"
When this was mentioned, Director Yang became even more excited, waving his hands and loudly saying: "One thousand people! That's a thousand people."
Good guy, the number of people was suddenly promoted from more than 200 to 1,000, and Shirley Yang really gained some face.
No wonder Director Yang is so excited.
According to the prior agreement, the income from the poverty alleviation workshop was divided into three parts.
Most of it is owned by ministries and commissions, and a small part is owned by steel rolling mills and poverty alleviation workshops.
Although it is only a small part, it is still quite objective.
In just two or three months, the steel rolling mill received a subsidy of more than 10,000 yuan from the ministry.
With this money, the steel rolling mill has stopped paying performance wages for half a year and can finally pay them in full.
Now the number of workers in the poverty alleviation workshop has suddenly increased to five times, and the output will inevitably increase.
At that time, the subsidies that steel rolling mills can receive will also increase.
Maybe next year, the steel rolling mill will be able to build a number of dormitories.
Now, as the number of workers in the capital increases, houses such as large courtyards have all been allocated.
New workers can only squeeze several people into one room.
Daily life is very inconvenient, let alone getting married and having children.
As the factory manager, he has the obligation to provide necessary living conditions for the workers.
The two chatted for a while, agreed on the details, and then Li Weidong got up and left.
Throughout the entire process, Li Weidong did not mention Yang Weimin.
Factory Director Yang did not ask about the situation at that time.
It's as if Yang Weimin's matter doesn't exist.
Li Weidong originally thought that Director Yang would avoid suspicion because Yang Weimin was his relative.
Who would have thought that at the afternoon award ceremony, Director Yang came to the scene in person as the factory leader.
And handed a banner embroidered with "Steel Rolling Mill Guards" into Li Weidong's hands.
"Comrade Li Weidong, on behalf of all the workers of the steel rolling mill, thank you for seeing through the conspiracy of Yang Weimin and Ma San in time. You have saved a lot of losses for our steel rolling mill."
"Director, this is what I should do."
An old man and a young man held their hands tightly together.
Li Weidong felt the warmth of Director Yang's palm.
I sighed in my heart.
It seems that I still underestimated the awareness of the old factory director.
An old factory manager in his prime like this cannot rub dirt into his eyes.
I'm afraid that even if his son makes a mistake, he will personally escort him to the security department.
Not to mention that Yang Weimin is just a distant relative of his.
