1855 United States Tycoon

Chapter 325 Trade Union Situation (5)

“Mr. MacDonald, there is a telegram from France. It is for Mr. Carol McDonald. After reading it, he thinks you should come and see it. By the way, discuss it with him.” Carol’s secretary Bowron.

“Ah, Bowron, do you know the content of that telegram?” Scrooge raised his head from the desk and asked as he put away some of the blueprints on the desk and put them in. In the safe in the wall next to it. Obviously, these blueprints are about some kind of technology design with great commercial value.

“Ah, sir, it’s about union activities in France. I don’t know the specifics.” Boron replied, “but I see Mr. Carroll’s expression. It shouldn’t be a bad thing.”

“No matter what it is, just go and see. Okay, let’s go.” Scrooge said to Bowron.

Carol’s office was actually not far from Scrooge’s office, so he went down the stairs and then turned around.

When Scrooge walked into Carol’s office, Carol was reading the telegram.

“Carol, is there any news?” Scrooge walked over and sat down next to Carol.

“Well, the union at McDonald Steel France has made some trouble, and it has basically calmed down. I came to you to discuss what to do next. Oh, take a look at this telegram first.” Carlos Er handed the long message to Scrooge.

Scrooge took the thick message, turned it over, and his eyebrows gradually wrinkled.

“What’s wrong? Is there any problem?” Carol asked.

“These bastards!” Scrooge cursed, “Just because the overseas telegrams are in our hands and don’t need money, they dare to write so long? F*ck’s, they even use anthropomorphic and metaphorical rhetoric. , The details have been described! What do they think they are writing? Writing novels or writing news reports, it is so messy to mix with water, do you not need money for mixing with water? The dead bottle dared not so much water!”

“Well, it’s a bit too much. It takes up the time to send the report, which is a waste of money. It should be cursed!” Carol nodded and said, for Scrooge’s thrifty attitude, he still understands and supports it. .

“These bastards.” Scrooge cursed again, then lowered his head and continued to look…

…

The situation this afternoon was completely beyond Kony’s expectation. He originally thought that if everyone hadn’t taken those ‘power pills’, no one would doze off because of fatigue. But what he didn’t expect was that fatigue, sleepiness, and dozing were common among these workers. Many workers made mistakes because of poor spirits, and what did they throw the packages in the wrong place? As a result, because of these errors, the number of workers expelled on this day has reached six times the usual amount. This is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is that someone was so exhausted that caused a drop in concentration and crashed into the small train in the factory and killed him directly.

“What’s going on? It makes no sense?” Kony was surprised. According to his inference, the drugs that cause drowsiness can only be taken by workers by deliberately giving different drugs. As for medication directly through food, he hadn’t thought about it, but this possibility was ruled out almost immediately. Because doing so means preparing two medicines for each worker, which is intolerable in terms of cost. As for the fact that he and those technology workers did not appear to be drowsy, that is also very normal, because they are not the same as the meal batches of heavy manual labor.

In short, the failure of this prediction has greatly reduced the prestige of Kony and other union members among the workers. Many expelled workers left behind when they left and regretted listening to the union’s inference. More The workers murmured together that what the company said is that our labor intensity is higher than that of ordinary enterprises. Therefore, we need to use Dali pills to refresh our minds. The argument that you can get Balabala without strong pills is actually very reasonable.

There was even such an argument that Kony, who was more technical than manual labor, didn’t know the consumption of heavy manual labor, so there was such an unreliable inference. Then there were rumors that Kony and the others did much lighter work than manual laborers, but they were paid twice as much as their wages, which was unfair. Some workers have this idea, and Konecranes also understands it. He even thinks that the company’s money for heavy manual workers is too small and unfair. He feels that these workers, whether they are technology workers or heavy manual labor, should unite and fight against the greedy capitalists, so that everyone can get more money. But what Kony didn’t expect was that some workers were very unfair after seeing that technology workers were paid more than their own. However, the content of the unfairness was not that they felt that they had taken less, but that technology workers had taken it. Too much money. This is simply incomprehensible.

In fact, this kind of psychology is not hard to understand. When the general public opinion of the society is on the side of the capitalists, the workers will also be affected and brainwashed. Even in later generations many years later, when many people see that workers in certain state-owned enterprises work less intensely than their own, but don’t get less money than their own, the direct reaction is not just why he takes so much? Then I yelled at Monopoly and Barabara, but didn’t think about it. In fact, it may not be that others have taken too much. This kind of work is originally worth so much money. It’s just that conscientious capitalists who are so-called “private enterprises” exploit too much and give too little.

Then there was a rumor that it was because those technology workers took too much, and technology workers were hard to find. In contrast, manual laborers were easy to find. That’s why the factory keeps dismissing those workers who are engaged in manual labor, using probationary labor and even child labor in large quantities, so as to save higher wages for these technology workers. And this kind of ridiculous, obviously provocative rumors, many people actually believe that even some union members who are engaged in heavy manual labor see Kony’s eyes a little bit wrong now. When Kony angrily said that this was a rumor, there would be people who Yin & Yang said weirdly, “I want to use rumors to bring the truth to life”, or “Rumors are far ahead prophecies” or something like that. Nonsense.

There is also a rumor that someone in the trade union took the capitalist’s money. But this rumor, Kony feels that the truth is not a rumor. Kony knew that someone must have taken the black money from the capitalists, and he or they had released these messy rumors. He was even sure that there was only one truth about the failure a few days ago, and that was because we had a traitor who sold the plan to the capitalists! Other union members seemed to believe this. For example, Doyle and Royce were investigating who the traitor was. However, the trouble was that he seemed to doubt himself and Roy when he looked at Doyle’s eyes and meaning. Si may be a traitor, or both are traitors. And Royce seemed to doubt himself a little bit, and he also seemed to doubt Pat. In short, everyone seemed to think that except for himself, everyone looked like a traitor. Even Kony himself admitted that now he looked at Doyle and Royce, and felt that they were traitors, and even suspected that they were playing the trick of shouting and catching the thief….

“The French side did a great job.” Scrooge finally finished reading the long reportage-like telegram. “They must want to ask you for credit, so they wrote this thing. It’s so long. And in the gaps in every word, you can find the meaning of’I am very capable, come and reward me’.”

“Scrooge, do you think we should give them a little reward? Or just use the reward for them to pay for their telegram.” Carol smiled.

“Of course there is a reward. As for the telegram fee or something, this time, forget it. After all, we have not specifically stipulated it before. But you must beat them well, or else you will not be too proud. In this case, maybe The next round will suffer.” Scrooge said, “Reward, you can figure it out.”

“They are still waiting for our guidance. What should be done next is to directly distort the reputation of this union, and then start a new one to replace it or what about it.” Carol asked.

“Establishing a union by ourselves is our experience in the United States, but it is not necessarily universal. The situation in Europe is different from the United States. In the United States, our profit margins are higher, which allows workers to be slightly Take more. In addition, we have been brainwashing the workers for a long time. In this way, even though the workers know that the union and us wear a pair of pants, they will not have much opinion. They even think that the union is reliable. But Unlike Europe, we cannot pay European workers such good wages, and European workers are more affected by “communism” and have a low degree of trust in us. Therefore, if we follow Calabash’s drawing of an own union, most of it It’s going to be a nail.” Shi Gaozhi said in a detailed analysis.

“Then how do I reply to him? What should he do next?” Carol asked.

Scrooge thought for a while, and replied: “First, find a way to continue to infiltrate the current union, find a way to expel all union leaders who are unwilling to join us, or accidentally leave. In addition, let the union split into Technology Workers’ unions and general workers’ unions. Let the workers split, suspicion, and interfere with each other. In addition, don’t try to make their unions finally look like ours. Even if we control these unions, we have to let them It looks like it’s standing opposite us.”
