Blackstone Code

Anderson is a very ordinary worker. The factory has been shutting down more frequently recently, which makes everyone very uneasy.

From the one-week suspension of work every month last year, to the current work week, one-week suspension, a kind of panic is spreading in the hearts of every worker, especially… he heard that the factory seems to be unable to survive. .

Its not that the factory is at a loss and so on. In fact, the factory is not at all at a loss. Its just that the sales of the things it produces are getting worse and worse. Many goods are piled up in the warehouse and slowly covered with dust. .

If things cant be sold, there will be no income. In addition, the cost of input, storage management fees, workers wages and other losses have become the biggest headache for factory owners.

Although he has always assured the workers that he will continue the life of the factory as much as possible, everyone has a feeling that the day of changing jobs is not far away.

Today is payday. Anderson brought his neat and tidy to the factory early in the morning. Everyone in groups of three or four was chatting about some common content, most of them were Who made a fortune suddenly, or several of the surrounding factories closed down.

In the past, they did not feel that life would be so difficult, especially in the previous years, the factory continued to operate from morning to night, and after the end of each day, the workers were too tired to lift their arms.

At that time, it was very tired, but also very fulfilling. As long as there is a job, there is a rich return. The factory owner even expanded the factory for this, adding more jobs….

Everyone was chatting, reminiscing about the past, or fearing the future. At this time, there was a loud noise from the factorys financial office.

The noisy sound instantly pierced everyone’s sensitive nerves. Most people immediately ended what they were doing, and moved towards the door of the financial office.

After Anderson approached, I discovered that several workers were arguing with the factory owner, that is, their boss. There were two reasons for the quarrel.

First, the factory will be shut down from next month. As for the resumption of work, everyone should wait for notification.

This is equivalent to telling everyone that the factory is over. The so-called resumption of work may simply not exist. The federal salary system is based on the working hour system. You can get how much money you do.

This kind of system has always been reasonable, especially for the hard-working workers. The more they give, the more they get. Everyone is working hard to contribute to the factory.

Once there is a complete shutdown, it means that these workers will not have a penny of income next month!

Overwhelming majority of ordinary households in the Commonwealth not at all have the habit of actively saving. In addition, the savings interest rate of the six major federal banks has been continuously reduced. The difference between depositing money in the bank and holding it in hand has been Not big anymore.

This further reduces the urge to deposit money in the bank.

Money has a very special attribute. When you have money, you will have an inexplicable desire to consume. The more money, the stronger the desire to consume.

It may be to buy a Hautedog that you rarely buy to satisfy your appetite, or it may be to buy a pack of good cigarettes that you havent bought before to enjoy the mellow aroma of money burning .

Without deposits, life depends entirely on salary. If there is no salary, many families will immediately fall into the terrifying situation of terminating operation!

What’s more terrifying is the expiration of the payment period of various installment products, including houses and cars, which will become a burden that overwhelms people’s lives!

In the past few years, the entire world began to stabilize from the melee, and the Federation, which had been free from war, began to develop rapidly.

A lot of things bringing forth the new through the old, including the methods and concepts of consumption, not only can the house be installed in installments, but the car can be installed in installments, as long as there is a society guarantee card, as long as there is a legal citizenship, even You can buy a TV in installments.

Everyone is enjoying the huge dividends of the times, as if there is money everywhere, as long as you bend down, you can pick it up.

But now, these unpaid installments have become a noose around people’s necks, which may be tightened anytime and anywhere, and take people’s lives!

Several workers are arguing with Boss about this matter. They demand that Boss start work next month and no less than ten days. This is their last insistence.

Work for one day and rest for two days. If this is not guaranteed, their lives will become a problem.

Obviously, Boss always kept his face cold and shook his head constantly. He was impossible to accept such a request.

Current business is not good. The market in the surrounding area of Sabine City and even in this state is already saturated. It is difficult for goods to be sold in bulk as before. The payment speed is slow, and the money returned is basically consumed in storage. Fees and wages are up.

Continue to start work. He has no second way to go except bankruptcy. The only thing he can do now is to stop work completely, and then find a way out for his products, or find a problem, and then continue to work after solving it.

The workers are at a loss at this time. In fact, the factory owner is also at a loss. It is obviously a very popular item. Why can’t it be sold in just one or two years!

Be aware that in the past, a large number of people drove trucks to rush to load goods outside the warehouse, and now some people actually call him to ask if they can return the goods, even if only 30% of the money is returned!

In addition to the problem of work stoppage, there is another problem, and that is how the salary is paid this time.

“There is not much money in the factory account, so I can’t pay you all person, so I think maybe we can use another way to pay you…”

< p>As for the issue of work stoppage, everyone has stopped arguing. The workers decided to let the union come forward. They looked at the factory owner coldly at this time, and there was no friendliness they had before. There was not only a wall between them. , Each other has become enemies.

The factory owner’s eyelids trembled twice, he raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, his voice was dry, astringent and hoarse, “I don’t know how to say…”, he looked at the strangers around him Workers, sighed, “You already know the current situation of the factory, and I can’t afford to pay…”

Without finishing the words, the group of workers closest to him burst into an uproar. This uproar is rapidly spreading and spreading to all sides, and the entire factory is noisy, so that in the end the factory owner also put away his unnecessary emotions and watched the workers arguing and making noise indifferently.

After another period of time, this kind of noise could not be answered, and the appeal could not be resolved, so they fell silent.

At this time, there was a slight sneer on the face of the factory owner. The workers were also to himself, but he quickly took it back.

“I will use the cost price as the standard for the things we produce and send it to you as a salary.”

“You can refuse to accept it, or even go to the union or court to sue Me, it just so happens that I can apply for bankruptcy protection. Lets finish the game together!”

“If you are willing to accept, go to the warehouse to collect your’salary’!” After he finished speaking, he turned around and returned to the finance office. Immediately afterwards, an accountant and several managers began to come out to calm down their emotions.

Anderson is standing in the crowd like a puppet and drifting with the crowd. His mind is full of noise and tinnitus. The only thing he thinks about at this time is that the sky is falling.

In fact, he doesn’t have to worry at all, because he will adapt quickly.

Some of the workers got into trouble, while others silently went to pick up the inventory. At least these things are more or less one thing, as long as they are valuable, its better than nothing, right? ?

Outside the warehouse, he numbly took out a pen to sign his name on the salary book, and then looked at the three large boxes of household appliances on the side, his mind buzzed.

In the days to come…what should I do?

As soon as Anderson, carrying three boxes, walked through the factory door, there was a strong wind, and suddenly something floated in the wind and covered his face.

He tore it and opened it, but it was a common poster all over the street. A man with an appearance of the ordinary showed eight teeth and was holding a golden light shining advertising sloganRuidai, a trace of Aniudai”
