Ye Yu has heard about the betrothal gifts in some areas now, and it is indeed what the master worker said.
But he cannot change this social phenomenon.
As for where this trend started, no one probably knows. Anyway, the sales of houses and cars have improved a lot.
No matter how expensive the house price is, some parents are willing to spend most of their lives buying it in order to find a wife for their son.
The worker next to him said: "Old Liu, your side also has too many gifts. For example, the betrothal gift from our side is less than that from your side, but we must have a house and a car. In fact, it is not much different."
Ye Yu listened to their chat, and he could hear the helplessness and bitterness in their words, as well as their complaints about the current situation of society.
In his opinion, this is the most authentic voice of the people.
Ye Yu asked: "Uncle Liu, how much salary can you get now?"
Old Liu turned to look at him with a simple smile on his face: "If I work every day and don't delay, it will probably be 18,000."
A salary of 8,000 or 10,000 yuan is already very satisfying for them, because they feel that they have no education or ability, and they are satisfied to be able to earn this money with just a handful of efforts.
In Ye Yu's opinion, this salary is really too little. They need to support the family, old and young, and the job is indeed very hard.
Ye Yu continued to ask: "What time do you usually go to work and get off work?"
Lao Liu replied: "You go to work at dawn in the morning, get off work after dark, and work after lunch. Young man, can you resist?"
Ye Yu smiled and said: "It should be possible. It's just a good time to train yourself."
"Yes, you should exercise more when you are young." Lao Liu returned.
At this time, a person next to him said: "What kind of broken brick is this? It will break with a little force. Didn't you tell them, Lao Liu?"
Lao Liu: "I told you, the people above said it can be used this way."
"What if this collapses in the future?" The worker next to him was younger.
Lao Liu: "It has nothing to do with us if it collapses. This is all a matter from above. We have reminded us of everything we should. They asked us to continue to use it."
"I'm afraid that in the end, people will say that our base skills are not good, and then they will blame us."
Lao Liu: "It's okay, it has nothing to do with us."
Ye Yu next to him pretended to be curious: "What's wrong with this brick?"
After saying that, he walked over to the side and picked up a brick. He broke the brick lightly with his hands. It was not that he was too strong, but that the quality of the brick was not good.
The man replied: "The quality of this batch of bricks is not very good, and it is incomparable with the previous batch of bricks."
Ye Yu asked curiously: "When did this batch of bricks come? How long have you been using them?"
The man replied: "I came here yesterday morning and have been using it for more than a day. Lao Liu asked the contractor yesterday."
Ye Yu nodded calmly. Logically speaking, this matter was a problem with the Xinghai Group's supervisors. This kind of quality issue required strict control by them.
He continued to ask: "Is there no supervisor on this construction site? Why don't we see any supervisor?"
"The supervisor doesn't come out much. He's either sleeping or playing cards."
Ye Yu: "Where is our supervisor now?"
The man pointed to the house not far away: "In the house built over there."
Ye Yu chatted with them for a few words and then left. He went to other factory sites. They used the same batch of bricks, all of which were delivered yesterday.
He walked for a long time and visited the construction sites of dozens of nearby factories. He found that only a dozen of them used the batch of bricks sent yesterday, and they were all of poor quality.
Then he came to the outside of the supervisor's office, which was shrouded in mist. There were four or five people sitting inside, smoking cigarettes and playing cards.
There is a supervisor among them, and several others are contractors of the engineering team.
He did not go in, but took a look and then left. It was already past 11:30 noon, and it was time for the master worker to eat.
Ye Yu followed him in and took a look. The food was very ordinary, just a big stew with very little meat.
Of course, these meals are the responsibility of the engineering team, not the Xinghai Group, so it has nothing to do with the Xinghai Group. But Ye Yu felt uncomfortable when he saw them sitting around with stainless steel lunch boxes.
Ye Yu walked out of the industrial park and returned to Xinghai Building.
He came to Li Yunyue's office, where Xia Qing and Li Yunyue were chatting and laughing.
When the two of them saw Ye Yu coming back, they hurriedly turned around and Li Yunyue said respectfully: "Mr. Ye, you are back."
Ye Yu's face was calm and expressionless. Xia Qing felt something was wrong, because he usually looked smiling.
"Did something happen to Ye Yu?" Xia Qing asked.
Ye Yu looked at Li Yunyue and asked, "Are the supervisors in the industrial park from the company?"
Li Yunyue nodded: "Yes, Mr. Ye, what's the matter?"
Ye Yu: "I went there today and walked around. The bricks used in more than ten factories were of very poor quality and broke when broken. This is a very serious quality problem. If it is built in the future, it will collapse when workers are working inside."
What should I do? Who will take the responsibility?"
Li Yunyue's face changed slightly when she heard what he said. She had been concentrating on her career these days just hoping that something would go wrong elsewhere, but now something went wrong.
Although Ye Yu did not mean to blame her in his words, the problem was also due to her poor supervision.
Li Yunyue said hurriedly: "Mr. Ye, I understand. I will hold a meeting right away to severely punish those who do not work well."
Ye Yu nodded slightly: "This matter must be severely punished, and the treatment of those workers and masters should be improved, the wages should be doubled, and the food should be better. We are not short of this money now, and this is what we can do."
Li Yunyue nodded: "It's Mr. Ye, I understand."
"Let's go to the meeting." Ye Yu said calmly.
Li Yunyue walked out of the office, and then asked the people in the president's office to start notifying all the company's managers to come to the conference room for a meeting.
Xia Qing looked at Ye Yu and said, "Ye Yu, why did you think of giving them a salary increase?"
Ye Yu: "They work very hard. The current wages for them are not much. For example, in foreign countries, their wages can reach 20,000 to 30,000. I don't ask for much. Our workers' wages cannot be lower than theirs. This is within my ability."
In the range."
Xia Qing nodded slightly. Domestic worker wages are the standard that best represents the country's economic level. The wages of ordinary workers in country M are three to four thousand m yuan, which is more than 20,000 yuan when converted into hx currency.
The people who can earn this kind of salary every month in China are definitely supervisors or above the manager level. Even the supervisors of many companies do not reach this salary.
Ye Yu felt that it was necessary to raise the salary level of the company's employees again. Now the minimum salary for Xinghai Group employees is more than 10,000. He used to think it was quite a lot, but now he feels it is too different.
