Don’t raise unruly people in extreme cold weather

Chapter 344 Treatment of workers
Hearing the shouts of the workers, Purficott glanced at the workers in front of him who were still a little aggrieved, and shouted: "Who is Barras?"

The worker leader had no intention of hiding, and ignored the other workers who were trying to hold him back. With an aura of perseverance and fearlessness, he strode towards Purficott, and then puffed out his chest. Said: "I am Barras, Barras Bones. If you want to arrest me, just arrest me. This matter has nothing to do with other people."

Barras didn't want to implicate other workers. Obviously, if Purficott had already shot and killed people and called in the army, and wanted to cause trouble, he was really putting other people's lives at the point of a gun. .

"I have the final say on whether there is a relationship or not, and it doesn't matter if you say it." Purficott didn't promise anything, and she had no interest in accompanying him in a scene similar to the hero's appearance in an old movie. She was just very interested. He said flatly: "If you hide and are unwilling to come forward, I will issue a wanted order and send people to hunt you down. By the way, I will also put everyone who caused trouble in the scene into prison.

But since you have stood up, let me ask, can you represent others? Or do you mean what you say? "

"I think I should be able to represent some people, and comrades should still be able to listen to what I say." Barras looked around and saw many workers standing behind him with firm expressions. He felt that he It became even more impossible to allow Perfectcott to expand the scope of this incident.

When Barras said this, the workers behind him couldn't help shouting: "We listen to Barras!"

Although they were afraid of the rifles in the hands of the city guards, they still mustered up the courage to stand behind Barras and express their support for him.

Purficott looked at the worker leader in front of him, nodded slightly and said: "In that case, let's talk about it. How do you or you guys plan to end this matter? Because your troubles have seriously affected Construction progress of the energy tower.

I don’t care if some of you are wanted criminals, or if you are a participant in the labor movement, but you regard my tolerance as your capital to provoke me and try to use strikes to affect the energy tower project. The construction progress is something I cannot tolerate. "

Instead, he calmly analyzed the meaning of Purficott's words, and then said: "In other words, for you, the construction progress of the energy tower is the first priority. As long as the construction of the energy tower can be completed on time, you Actually, I don’t mind that I am a wanted member of the labor movement.”

But the premise of all this is that you have not violated my will or affected my plans.

Now because of your nonsense, the progress of the project construction has been seriously affected, and I need an explanation.

Listening to Purficott's words, Barras did not argue with her out of the blue, or felt that Purficott was a ruler who oppressed them.

"Although what you said seems to be contemptuous of the laws of the empire, you are right to say so. My will is the law in the north. If I say you are guilty, I can fight you even if you are a living saint appointed by the state religion. "Go to the stake." Purficott jumped off the box, walked up to Barras, and looked at the worker leader: "Similarly, if I think you are not guilty, even if you are the most wanted criminal in the empire, I can protect you too.

If you can't give me an explanation, then all those who participated in the riot today, whether workers or engineers, you will become the cooling shell decoration of the energy tower. "

Purficott's words did not show any emotion, she was just stating her words normally.

But as long as she saw that the brains of the recently beaten corpse at her feet were still leaking out, and her head was kicked by her with her feet, she knew that the earl was not joking, but was really will build everyone into the energy tower. Barras naturally understood this. He looked into Purficott's red eyes and said calmly: "I am willing to take all responsibilities and appease all the workers. They will voluntarily work overtime today to catch up with the delayed construction progress." Come up.

Please forgive them graciously this time, and I promise they won't cause you any trouble again. "

The key reason why Barras was willing to make such compromises and concessions was that Perficott was not usually harsh on the workers.

In addition to very strict requirements on construction quality and project progress, Purficott actually treated the workers very well. Both the wages and the hardness of the work were far beyond the average level of this era.

For the workers, they were willing to work for Purficott.

After all, it is very rare for them to find such a good job in this era. Even though working for Purficott requires very strict requirements, the workers have no complaints about it.

It was precisely because of this foundation that Barras was able to calm the workers' emotions and let them voluntarily work overtime to catch up with the delayed construction progress.

In fact, when he said these words, the workers behind him did not express any objections, but stood firmly behind him to provide him with support.

Purficott nodded slightly, but did not complain about this. He just said: "Voluntary to work overtime? Yes, but I will not relax my requirements for you. The quality of construction must be guaranteed. You have three days to make up for the delay today." construction progress.

As long as you can catch up with the construction progress that was delayed today within three days, I will not blame others for causing trouble.

But if you can't do it, then one out of ten workers will be executed, as a punishment for delaying the construction progress, and as a warning to others. "

When they heard that if they couldn't finish the job, they would kill one out of ten, and the workers couldn't help but commotion. But in the end, Barras relied on his prestige to calm everyone's emotions, and then tentatively discussed with Purficott: "Can you give me more information?" Two days' grace? I'm willing to guarantee them that it won't happen again!"

"You only have three days to catch up with the progress." Purficott did not make any compromises. She just looked at Baras in front of her with an indifferent expression and said to him in a cold tone: "And you are not qualified to make decisions for others. Paul, I am being extremely merciful by not pursuing your status as a participant in the labor movement and a wanted criminal, so don’t challenge my tolerance.”

After saying that, Purficott suddenly looked at the engineers on the side who were still aggrieved, turned to them and asked: "Who instigated what happened today?"
