Liu Xiaoyu's eyes moved slightly and she explained in a low voice: "Yesterday, Boss Liao fired the people from Zhang Biao, and most of them were unwilling to leave. Zhang Biao ran out early in the morning, while others kept it and refused to leave.
.”
"I refuse to leave? How could it be a mess?" Xue Ling grasped the key to the problem.
Liu Xiaoyu embarrassedly: "A brother I brought was a little impulsive and scolded them for leaving quickly, saying that they were still stubborn and were doing something here when they were fired. They were angry and started arguing with us."
Xue Ling's face was slightly dark, and she angrily said, "You are here to start construction today, not to quarrel. You will have to support the construction site in the future. Don't let Boss Liao and me be disappointed again and again, that's not good."
Liu Xiaoyu smiled and whispered: "Sister-in-law, I won't know anymore. We were really too impulsive just now."
Xue Ling didn't hold him back and asked calmly: "How many of them are unwilling to leave?"
She glanced at it and found that there were about twenty people.
Liu Xiaoyu explained: "These are not something that I don't want to leave. They said that Zhang Biao was going to make trouble, and this was not their intention. Their work was led by Zhang Biao, and he had to be given a commission. It would be impossible not to listen to him.
But now it’s almost the end of the year, and it’s too late to go to the construction site to work. They still want to stay here, at least they can get a salary for food, accommodation and salary.”
Xue Ling nodded and asked, "Where is Boss Liao? He hasn't come here yet?"
"No." Liu Xiaoyu grabbed her hair in confusion and said, "I don't know what he did so late today..."
Xue Ling thought for a while and said, "It's probably Zhang Biao who went to find him."
Liu Xiaoyu whispered nervously: "Sister-in-law, these people are all brought by Zhang Biao after all. If they are asked to stay, Zhang Biao will definitely have a stumble with them. In addition, I went to see my brother yesterday, and he said I will bring him this afternoon.
Fifteen or sixteen people came over. There were enough people here."
Xue Ling understood what he meant. He didn't want to leave this group of people, for fear of affecting them.
She did not agree or refuse, explaining: "When Boss Liao comes, I will discuss it with him. If they are willing to work for us, they have to follow the engineer's instructions to do things. If they want to cause trouble, we will never leave anyone behind.
”
Liu Xiaoyu didn't know what to say, so she just nodded.
The construction site was simple and I temporarily set up a small office. The accountant and Boss Liao were usually there. The workers were unable to come at any time except for getting their wages.
The office is small, so many people can't get in. The little accountant was so scared that he saw so many people suddenly coming.
A tent was set up in front of the office door, and the place was not sunny.
Xue Ling accompanied them to stand under the tent and asked, "Who is the one brought by Zhang Biao? Please raise your hand!"
After a moment, more than a dozen men of different ages raised their hands slowly.
Xue Ling smiled and said, "Please stand here. Please stand behind the rest of the people who follow Boss Liu."
Then, she turned her head and told the little accountant: "Go and get a few packs of cigarettes and give them two."
The little accountant nodded quickly and ran in.
The workers were obedient and stood on their own.
Xue Ling first looked at the person on Zhang Biao's side and asked, "You still want to stay and work, right?"
They nodded one after another.
The middle-aged man in the lead frowned and explained: "My home is far away from here, so it takes a lot of money to go back by train. It's almost the Chinese New Year, and you may not have to get a salary when changing places. You can have food and accommodation here, but I still want to
Keep!"
"I want to stay, too!"
"So too!"
Seeing that they all expressed their opinions one after another, Xue Ling couldn't help asking again: "Zhang Biao made trouble before, and you all participated, right?"
"Yes...but I didn't want to do that! They were all taught by Zhang Biao! He said that if he did that, he would get a higher salary from the boss."
"Yes! He said that the boss gave him a higher salary, and we also had more money! That's why we listened to him!"
Xue Ling smiled slightly and asked, "Do you think it's not high enough for your salary of 120 yuan a month, including food and accommodation?"
As far as she knows, if the salary of a construction worker is included in food and accommodation, he can earn more than 120 yuan. This is quite high among his peers, not the highest, but it will never be considered low.
After her words, the workers became excited.
"Mr. Xue, you don't understand! Zhang Biao wants to get our salary. Some people are drawn ten yuan by him, and some young people are paid twenty yuan! He has to make hundreds of yuan a month!"
"Yes! I just talked to him not long ago, and he said I was a newcomer and I had to pay twenty yuan a month! Otherwise, I would have no work to do it for me!"
"We are from the north and don't understand the rules of yours. When we come with Zhang Biao, we will listen to him. We will do whatever he asks us to do."
"Not one hundred and two! But we think it's good to have food and accommodation here... I don't want to bear to come here."
Xue Ling listened carefully and waved his hand to calm them down.
Then, she looked at Liu Xiaoyu and asked, "Boss Liu, where are you here? You can get a commission, right?"
Liu Xiaoyu nodded and replied: "My way is different from Zhang Biao. Every brother of me treats me equally. They are with me. I have to make sure they have food and life is guaranteed. I usually want to charge five yuan.
, Brothers with families will have two dollars, and if they have family difficulties, they won’t accept a penny, just follow me.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the workers on Zhang Biao looked envious.
"Yo! At most, five dollars!"
“It’s too much worse!”
"It's just two parts of a family?! Why are your brother so good?! You're not lying to others, right?"
Liu Xiaoyu is a straightforward person, and she was very unhappy when she heard that they were suspicious.
"I, Liu Xiaoyu, always say whatever I am! Why do you say I am lying?! My brothers are all here. If you don't believe me, you can ask them! I have obtained the project, and I can't finish it all by myself.
It’s not made by the brothers!”
The workers behind him also shouted loudly: "Brother Liu is like this! I got married last year, and since then, I just paid two yuan a month!"
"I don't have a family, five yuan a month! I'm now 12 yuan a month now, and it's not short of five yuan at all! Brother Liu has a big face and has a job all year round. Five yuan a month is nothing
!”
"My wife was sick two years ago. Brother Liu borrowed me 100 yuan. Since then, he has never taken me a penny! He will give me 12 yuan at the construction site, and he will give me 12 yuan directly!"
After hearing this, Zhang Biao's people were very envious and dared not question it anymore, so they calmed down one after another.
Xue Ling looked at them and asked, "Has Zhang Biao left with the others? Didn't he have more than 30 men under him?"
"A dozen people are gone." The middle-aged man in the lead said: "They said they didn't want to do this anymore, and they all left one after another yesterday. Zhang Biao was angry and went to discuss with Boss Liao."
Xue Ling nodded, sure of the guess in his heart.
"What do you think in your heart?"
The middle-aged man explained: "We... don't care how Zhang Biao and Boss Liao discuss... we still want to stay and continue working, at least until the end of the year before leaving."
"Yes! We all think so! We were about to start working just now, but Liu Xiaoyu said she didn't want us here anymore and asked us to leave. We were so angry that we started arguing with them!"
"That's it! Whether we want us or not is up to the boss! Mr. Xue, please keep us! Don't quit us! We won't make trouble with Zhang Biao, please work hard!"
