Hua Dekai nodded: "That's for sure. I will definitely ask Hu Meng to apologize to the injured worker!"
"Two days!" Ma Xiaoyao stretched out two fingers and shook it: "I only give Hu Meng two days! The arrears of wages must be paid within two days, and certain compensation must be made to the injured workers!"
"Two days?" Hua Dekai frowned: "This time is too short..."
"Is it short? I don't think it's too short!" Ma Xiaoyao shook his head: "One day is twenty-four hours, and two days is forty-eight hours. It's really not too short."
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma, it is not difficult to apologize to the injured worker and provide compensation, but it is a bit difficult to make up for the arrears of wages within two days. You must know that the amount of arrears of wages is not small..." Hua De
Kai said.
Ma Xiaoyao waved his hand: "I have made a promise to those workers that they will get their wages within three days. One day has passed and there are still two days left."
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma, you made this promise too hastily!" Hua Dekai looked a little ugly: "Hu Meng is very short of funds now. It is impossible for him to make up for the arrears of wages within two days.
!”
"Not two days? How many days will it take?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"This... it will take at least a month..." Hua Dekai hesitated and said: "Hu Meng is now applying for a loan from the bank. The procedures are almost completed. It is estimated that the loan will be approved soon. Wait.
After the loan is approved, Hu Meng will pay all the workers’ wages in arrears as soon as possible!”
"A month?" Ma Xiaoyao pouted: "It's too long. I'll give Hu Meng a week at most."
"Deputy County Magistrate Ma..." Hua Dekai was about to speak but was interrupted by Ma Xiaoyao.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned: "Secretary Hua, for your sake, I have already made a concession. If you are still dissatisfied, then I have no choice. I will give Hu Meng a week at most.
Within a week, if Hu Meng still cannot make up for the back wages, then I can only solve the problem through legal channels."
Hua Dekai nodded: "Okay, I will urge Hu Meng to make up for the arrears of wages." After saying that, Hua Dekai stood up and left, looking very ugly when he left.
"Alas..." Ma Xiaoyao sighed softly: "After this incident... Hua Dekai must have a bigger opinion of me... This matter caused trouble..." First, he dealt with Hua Dekai's wife, and then
When it comes to dealing with Hua Dekai's nephew, Ma Xiaoyao seems to be at odds with Hua Dekai, and conflicts often arise.
…
After Hua Dekai returned to her office, she took out her mobile phone and called Hu Meng.
"Uncle, how is the matter resolved?" Hu Meng asked anxiously.
"I just went to find Ma Xiaoyao." Hua Dekai said.
"What did he say?" Hu Meng asked.
Hua Dekai breathed out: "Ma Xiaoyao only promised to give you one week. Within one week, you must make up the arrears of wages. In addition, you must apologize to the injured worker in person. Not only must you pay compensation,
We also need to obtain forgiveness from the injured workers.”
"What? A week?" Hu Meng's tone suddenly increased: "Isn't this time too short? I am short of funds now, and it is impossible to make up for the arrears of wages within a week. This is absolutely impossible!"
"I know it's difficult for you, but you must find a way to make up for the arrears of wages within a week, otherwise Ma Xiaoyao will not let you go easily." Hua Dekai said.
"Uncle, please go and intercede for me again and ask Ma Xiaoyao to give me some more time. One week is really too short." Hu Meng said.
Hua Dekai smiled bitterly: "At first, Ma Xiaoyao planned to give you only two days. Later, I helped you say a lot of good things, and Ma Xiaoyao reluctantly agreed to give you a week."
"Uncle, please go to Ma Xiaoyao again to intercede. You are the deputy secretary of the county party committee. Ma Xiaoyao will definitely give you face..." Hu Meng begged.
"Face?" Hua Dekai's mouth twitched: "For Ma Xiaoyao, my face is not worth anything at all..."
"Uncle, you...why did you say that...you are the deputy secretary of the county committee, how could Ma Xiaoyao not give you face?" Hu Meng was stunned.
Hua Dekai sighed: "Hu Meng, there are some things you don't understand at all... Let me tell you simply, Ma Xiaoyao is a very evil person and difficult to deal with. Anyone who provokes him will definitely suffer endless consequences from Ma Xiaoyao.
For revenge, do you think I, the deputy secretary of the county party committee, am very powerful? In fact, I hardly have much say in Dongcheng County. Is Cheng Wenyong, secretary of the county party committee, powerful? He saw Ma Xiaoyao
You have to be polite. County Magistrate Li Ming is awesome, right? He always takes a detour when he sees Ma Xiaoyao. Let me tell you, Ma Xiaoyao has a very powerful voice in Dongcheng County. No one dares to provoke him!"
"Is this Ma Xiaoyao really that powerful?" Hu Meng sounded surprised.
Hua Dekai nodded: "It will only be more powerful than you think. I have been in the officialdom for so many years, and this is the first time I have met an alien like Ma Xiaoyao. I would say he is a good person, but his methods of doing things are very vicious, especially...
He is even more ruthless towards his enemies. Call him a bad guy. He has done a lot of good things for the people over the years. Most people in Dongcheng County praise Ma Xiaoyao as a good official. Also, Dongcheng County can develop so fast.
Ma Xiaoyao has an indelible contribution. After so many years, I have never seen through Ma Xiaoyao. Ma Xiaoyao is a complex of contradictions. He has a good side and a bad side. Being friends with him will make you feel relieved. Likewise, with him
Being an enemy also gives you nightmares.”
"So, I have to make up for the arrears of wages within a week?" Hu Meng said unwillingly.
"You can't afford to offend Ma Xiaoyao, so hurry up and find a way to raise money." Hua Dekai said helplessly: "In the final analysis, you did something wrong in this matter, so hurry up and find a way to make up for it."
"..." There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment: "Uncle, I really have no money now..."
"Aren't you applying for a bank loan?" Hua Dekai asked.
"We are going through the formalities, and it will take half a month at the earliest to get the approval..." Hu Meng said: "I really can't make up for the arrears of wages within a week... How about... Uncle, help me make an appointment.
As soon as I make an appointment with Ma Xiaoyao, I treat him to a meal and plead with him in person? And also give him some benefits? "
"It's useless!" Hua Dekai shook his head: "Ma Xiaoyao is famous for not accepting gifts. During the holidays, I don't know how many people want to give gifts to Ma Xiaoyao, but they are all rejected by Ma Xiaoyao."
"What should we do?" Hu Meng was a little anxious.
Hua Dekai pondered for a moment: "I do have an idea."
"What can I do?" Hu Meng asked hurriedly.
"Go and apologize to those workers, explain it to them, tell them about your current difficulties, and then promise to make up for their wages as soon as possible. As long as you can get their understanding, Ma Xiaoyao probably won't make it too difficult for you.
That's it." Hua Dekai said his method.
"What? You want me to apologize to those lowly workers?" Hu Meng screamed: "Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Who am I? How can I apologize to those lowly workers? I lose my identity and lose face.
I absolutely can’t do it!”
Hua Dekai frowned: "Be careful what you say, why are those workers so lowly?"
"Isn't it despicable enough?" Hu Meng snorted: "I usually get angry when I work overtime, and I ask for a salary increase from time to time. The most annoying thing is that I only owed wages for a few months, and they want to kill me.
In the end, they even went to the Labor Bureau to file a complaint against me. Seeing that the Labor Bureau didn’t care, they went directly to Ma Xiaoyao to file a complaint... It’s really annoying!”
"Listening to what you said, it seems that all the faults are on the workers. Are you not at all wrong?" Hua Dekai snorted softly: "Hu Meng, I find that you have changed. You are becoming more and more cold-blooded and cold-blooded.
More and more overbearing!"
"How can you get rich if you are not cold-blooded and domineering!" Hu Meng said: "These days, only if you are ruthless can you get rich and become a big boss!"
"This is nonsense!" Hua De said angrily: "Where did you hear this nonsense from? Cold-blooded and domineering people will not end well..."
"Okay, uncle, I don't want to discuss cold-blooded and domineering things with you. Let's talk about the arrears of workers' wages." Hu Meng said: "Uncle, please help me. Just help me get through this difficulty.
I will definitely thank you very much!"
"Currently, you have only two options. The first is to make up for the arrears of wages as soon as possible. The second is to go to those workers to apologize and obtain their understanding. It is your choice." Hua Dekai said coldly.
"I can't go through these two roads." Hu Meng said with a bitter face: "Is there a third way?"
"There is no third way." Hua Dekai said, "At least I can't think of a third way."
"..." Hu Meng fell silent again.
"You should think about it for yourself. I still have work to do, so let's do this first." After saying that, Hua Dekai ended the call and put down the phone. Hua Dekai sighed softly: "Go and say goodbye to the workers.
What's the matter with your apology? Just because you are the boss, can you look down on those workers? How could you earn so much money without those workers working so hard to help you? I can't understand such a simple truth...
…It’s so stupid.”
…
In the office.
Ma Xiaoyao was sitting on a chair, smoking and thinking secretly.
There are two things on Ma Xiaoyao's mind, one is about the temple, and the other is about Wang Xiaolong. It has been almost two weeks, and there is still no movement in the temple. The calmer it is, the more worried Ma Xiaoyao is.
disturbed.
There is a saying that goes well: Before a storm comes, everything is calm and calm. The calmer it is, the more powerful the coming storm will be.
