Chapter 680 Don't do things against your conscience
Zhou Wencheng and Zhang Yunqing also followed Zhao Manfu's footsteps and returned to their original seats.
The bald worker representative opposite looked at the three of them with contempt, and made a slight "hum" sound from his mouth.
It seems to be saying that if we don’t pay, we still want to run away. If it’s so easy to run away, will we still get our wages?
Zhao Manfu calmed down for a moment, and then whispered to Zhou Wencheng: "In this situation, if it continues like this, it won't work.
Are you familiar with the people at the police station here?"
Zhou Wencheng replied in a low voice: "I'm not familiar with it."
Zhao Manfu replied: "It doesn't matter if you're not familiar with it. Just call the police. Otherwise, if they treat it like this, we won't be able to go back and rest."
If the three of us are all busy here tonight, it will definitely affect the collection progress tomorrow. In that case, more people will come to the project department to make trouble, and it will be more difficult to deal with.
Don’t hesitate, call the police immediately and seek help.”
Zhou Wencheng said: "I'll discuss it with them again. If we can't agree, then call the police, okay?"
Zhao Manfu nodded and agreed: "Okay, you should hurry up and discuss it."
Zhou Wencheng said to Xia Houyue: "Boss Xia, our Mr. Zhao just said that we will definitely pay you during the day tomorrow.
Mr. Zhang and I are going to do this collection thing tomorrow.
So I have to go back and rest tonight.
Please consider the actual difficulties of the project department and let us go back and rest first.
If you want to go back, you can go back. If you don't want to, you can stay here."
Xia Houyue replied: "Mr. Zhou, I have no objection.
You and Mr. Zhao are my clients, I will do whatever you want to do, I have no objection."
Zhou Wencheng thought he had succeeded and said with a smile: "Okay, then please arrange for your workers to open the door of the conference room so that we can leave immediately."
Xia Houyue called to the Guangdao worker representative and said: "Bald worker representative, Mr. Zhou has already said that payment will be made tomorrow, so just arrange for your workers to open the door."
The representative of the bald workers said: "Boss Xia, I'm not talking about your son, you are just a little bit promising.
Mr. Zhou will say a word to you and you will get out of the way.
Don't worry, we can't get out of the way.
Unless you pay us the salary, it’s still about the same.”
Zhou Wencheng said: "We have emphasized many times that we will pay you tomorrow.
If you insist on acting like this, then I will have no choice but to call the police."
The bald worker representative shouted: "Report, report, report, report whatever you want, I don't believe it, the police will come and attack you dishonest people.
I really don’t believe it.”
Zhou Wencheng said: "Okay, then I will just call the police. Let's see how the police will handle it when they come."
After Zhou Wencheng called the police, the police quickly came to the conference room of the project department.
Asked: "Who did you call the police just now?"
Zhou Wencheng stood up and said: "Hello, police officer, I just called the police.
My name is Zhou Wencheng, and I am the project manager for the first subcontracting section of the Nanshan project’s gardening and landscaping specialty. The company name is Western Construction Co., Ltd.
Officers, please take a seat."
The tall policeman replied: "You're welcome, Manager Zhou.
I’ll just stand there for a moment and you can tell me why you called the police.”
Zhou Wencheng explained the cause and effect of calling the police and asked the tall police officer: "Officer, please help us coordinate.
What should we do about this?"
The tall police officer said: "This is an economic dispute, and we are not an economic investigation, so we don't care about your matter.
You discuss it among yourselves and everyone agrees."
Zhou Wencheng continued to ask unwillingly: "Officer, we have promised them to pay our wages tomorrow, and then we need to go back to the dormitory to rest before we can go to work normally tomorrow.
As you know, it's the end of the year and every unit has a lot of things to do.
Now they prevent us from going back to rest and from leaving the conference room.
Isn’t his behavior of not letting us leave the conference room wrong?”
The tall policeman replied: "Your personal freedom cannot be restricted.
Who did this?"
Zhou Wencheng pointed to the tall policeman Xia Houyue and the bald worker representative sitting across the conference table and said: "Officer, they are the only ones who arranged for workers to block the door of the conference room."
The tall policeman preached: "Let me promote the policy to you two. When you ask for wages, you must ask for wages, but you must ask for wages in a civilized and sensible manner.
You cannot use the methods of restricting personal freedom that Manager Zhou mentioned just now. In that case, our police station may have to arrest people and detain them."
The bald worker representative asked: "Then, what should we do if Western Construction is cheating and refusing to pay us?"
The tall policeman said: "Didn't Manager Zhou say that they will pay you tomorrow?"
The bald worker representative replied: "We did, but we didn't get the money, so the workers are worried."
The tall policeman said: "Which company is still working at this time? Aren't you just messing around?
If you have something to do, come back tomorrow during the day."
The representative of the bald workers said: "No, we insist on getting paid before we leave."
Zhao Manfu said: "You can choose to get your wages before leaving, but you cannot restrict the personal freedom of the three managers of Western Construction Co., Ltd. We need to go back and rest."
The representative of the bald workers did not answer.
Zhao Manfu asked the tall policeman again: "Officer, could you please help coordinate and let us go back to rest?
It really took a day and a night, it was too long and I couldn’t stand it anymore.”
The tall policeman replied: "Don't worry, they can't stop you."
The representative of the bald workers asked: "Officer, you let the three culprits run away, what will happen if we can't find them to collect wages tomorrow?"
Xia Houyue asked from the side: "Police officer, the workers and masters are really afraid that the leaders of these three project departments will run away and not get the hard-earned money.
Can they follow them?"
The tall policeman replied: "If you are really worried and want to follow, then go ahead."
The bald worker representative shouted: "Brothers, let them go. Each leader will be followed by two who are in good health. When we get up tomorrow day, we will ask them for their wages."
"Okay, six people have been selected."
A worker agreed.
Before leaving, the tall policeman emphasized: "If you want money, you have to pay it back, and you have to pay back your debts.
Everyone must control their emotions. Seeing that the Lunar New Year is coming soon, don't cause any more trouble.
Now you all go find a place to sleep. When you wake up tomorrow morning, come back and discuss it carefully.
Also, you members of Western Construction Co., Ltd., don’t do anything unconscionable. When it’s time to pay your workers, pay them as soon as possible.
If they pay late, they may not even be able to buy tickets, and getting home will be a problem."
