Chapter 467
After the car got on the ferry, Xue Huading got off the ferry and chatted with the lean webmaster.
Xue Huading smiled and said, "Station Manager Lu, the bridge is about to be repaired. Are you feeling uncomfortable? This ferry station is about to be revoked."
"Haha, how could I feel uncomfortable? I wish I could build it as soon as possible. With such a beautiful bridge, the traffic in our county has improved a lot." Stationmaster Lu first "looks forward" and said flatteringly at the bridge still under construction in the distance, "It's still County Magistrate Xue who has the courage to build such a large bridge as soon as he took office. What a good road. The roads built last year were more than the total number of roads built in previous years."
"Haha, I'm much richer now than before." Xue Huading was modest and then asked, "What work will you do after the bridge is repaired? This ferry should be withdrawn from transportation, right?"
"This ferry has been used for many years and should have been withdrawn long ago. I, I work in the paid class on the bridge. Hehe, sitting in the air-conditioned house to collect the passerby fee. OK, it is much easier than standing on the boat like this now. Haha, I didn't expect that I could live a good life when I was about to retire. Thank you very much, County Magistrate Xue." Stationmaster Lu said happily.
"Old Lu, you have to stand the last few shifts for this ferry. You can't relax your safety work. Don't think that it's only a few months to relax your heart. Safety work cannot be ignored at all." Xue Huading said, looking at the tires of the vehicles on the ferry. The staff here have already placed triangular wood for the front and rear wheels of each car that prevents sliding. Perhaps because the deputy county magistrate came in person, the staff placed triangular wood for each wheel.
"No, absolutely no. You can relax other things, and you must not relax safety work. County Magistrate Xue, don't worry, the more you last day, the stricter I will be in charge. As long as there is something about safety, I don't want you, County Magistrate Xue to punish me, and I will jump into the water myself. I have been an old revolution for decades. If I still commit this, I'm sorry for my old face." Stationmaster Lu patted his chest.
"Haha, that's good. Smoke!" Xue Huading dissipated a circle of cigarettes to another staff member and driver around him, and several drivers received the cigarettes in fear and fear.
When Wang Bo called again and said that the factory security and factory leaders could not stop the angry workers, Xue Huading gave him an order that made him and the factory leaders stunned: "Don't stop, aren't they going to rush in? Just let them in. If they want to enter the office building, let them in. You only announce one compensation for the destruction of public property."
Xue Huading knew that the people sitting in the office building now actually didn’t do much, and it would not bring any serious consequences if they shut down for one day.
When the security guards and factory leaders let the workers enter, the workers were stunned for a moment. They were trying hard to rush in, but they hesitated not to enter. Many people thought that the leaders of the factory had set up some traps in front: they just tried hard to stop and prevent them from entering, so why did they let themselves in casually now?
Of course, they were just stunned for a moment. Under the push of the crowd behind, they walked in suspiciously. The empty space in the factory was very large, and compared with the factory entrance, the site was much larger. It was precisely because of the sudden expansion of the site that the crowded workers had evacuated a lot, and their confidence quickly decreased as the space distance between them increased. After many workers shouting loudly at the gate entered the factory, they immediately did not dare to shout anymore. While walking in hesitantly, they looked around in a hurry, worried that the police would be ambushed in the distance.
Of course, there are also people who come with purpose, or who are paid to make trouble, and these people are much more courageous. They shouted loudly, "Comrades, don't be afraid. We are the working class, and no one dares to do anything to us!"
"We are here to protect the factory, we are just."
"We firmly oppose someone breaking up our factory under the name of his superiors."
"We have to go to work, we have to eat!"
...
However, the overall momentum of the troublemakers has irreversibly decreased.
After entering the factory, some thoughtful workers looked at the dilapidated office buildings, dilapidated factories, and messy venues. They thought a lot in their minds...
Someone whispered to a familiar friend: "This is a bad look, it's really not possible if you don't think of other ways."
"It seems that it will definitely go bankrupt. Let's resume work? I think he is the corrupt officials who make a good factory like this."
"People have the right, what can you do? I still don't want those people to sell the good equipment, so we will have no hope."
"That's it. But it's not a big deal to keep dragging on like this."
...
Soon, those who were chaotic gathered together and shouted, trying to gather the scattered workers again; those who did not want to make a fuss gathered on the other side to discuss various possibilities and analyze the intentions of their superiors; curious people looked around; workers who were idle were crowded here, and there were a group of...
After lunch, some workers even went home for dinner and their minds of making trouble gradually faded.
People's hearts are getting more and more dispersed, and they are anxious to make a few people with ulterior motives.
"Director Wang, if something big happened, why didn't County Mayor Xue show up?" A factory leader hurriedly approached Wang Bo and said.
"Yes, no matter what, our factory is still doing production? Now that so many workers are coming in, will it not disrupt our normal working order? I think the police should be sent to arrest them." Sheng Manshan also said.
Wang Bo ignored all these rebukes and questions, just saying that Xue Huading had something to do now.
However, Xue Huading came, when the troublemakers were disheartened and bored.
His arrival made the factory leaders who were really worried that something might happen to be a problem secretly, making the people who were afraid of the world being in chaos feel resentful.
Xue Huading's arrival added an invisible force to the troublemakers, and several people shouted loudly:
"We want to have a meal!"
"Our factory is not allowed to be demolished!"
"Down with corrupt elements!"
"We don't want to be the leader of our factory!"
"We're going to work!"
...
Wang Bo didn't know where Xue Huading got a tin horn. When he walked over, he didn't seem to have anything to take. Why did he suddenly raise the thing and shout, "Hello, comrades! I am Xue Huading, the deputy county magistrate of Changyi County, and the temporary party secretary of the diesel engine factory. What do you have any requirements and what are you not understanding? I will be responsible for replying to you today."
After a long time of trouble, a person in charge finally appeared. Whether it was a troublemaker or someone who didn't want to make trouble, or who was going home for dinner, or those workers who came back again after dinner all surrounded him.
One questioned: "County Magistrate Xue, some people say you are going to sell the factory's good equipment secretly, right?"
One said: "Secretary Xue, how many years have we been waiting for, and when will we go to work?"
A worker in the distance shouted: "Damn, the officials only say good things, don't be stupid!"
"We want wages! We want work." One man shouted.
"I want to reimburse medical expenses!" It's more realistic for a person.
...
Xue Huading smiled and said loudly: "My masters, please listen to me first? I suggest you select a few representatives and ask them one by one, and I will answer them one by one. I promise that I will give you a satisfactory answer today. If you have too many people, if you ask this question, I don't know who will answer."
After several times of this kind of scene, five representatives were elected in a few minutes. The five representatives had represented these workers several times, and now they were not afraid of the situation, and they did not refuse. They proudly squeezed to Xue Huading, and the few people determined the order of speech after a moment of discussion.
A man asked, "County Magistrate Xue, I am a worker and I don't know how to speak. First of all, I thank you on behalf of our worker master. As soon as you arrived at our factory, you proposed a reform plan, which is much better than that Deputy County Magistrate Wang. That person has been in our factory for more than two years, and he has no work except complaining. Compared to him, you are much stronger. You are a person who really wants to do things. It is better to have action and move than to stay still. Miracles can never happen without action. However, we heard that the first step in your reform is to make good equipment in the factory, good factory buildings, etc.
We are not fools. Everyone knows the situation of this factory, and it can be said that it is insolvent. It is precisely because hundreds of our workers cannot digest that the factory has not been bankrupt. What I want to ask is, if you sell all the valuable things in the factory, will this factory still have hope? Can it still be resurrected? As long as those equipment are sold, I can say that this factory is a pile of total garbage. Our workers have no hope at all. Therefore, we firmly disagree to sell these equipment."
This representative said that he could not speak, but in fact, the words he said were all in a mess, and the other representatives were also following the lead. As soon as he finished speaking, several people rushed to shout: "It's right, we don't allow us to sell the good things!"
"Sell those bad equipment first if you want to sell it!"
"We don't want to prodigal sons!"
...
Xue Huading pressed the air with his hand a few times and said, "Everyone is quiet." After waiting for a few seconds, everyone's voices became weaker.
Xue Huading then raised the trumpet and said, "From the words of this representative just now and everyone's speeches, I have experienced what the spirit of ownership is, and I have also felt everyone's sincere heart. I am here on behalf of the county government and the leaders of the factory, and I sincerely thank you. Your concern is also the driving force for our reform. Only when everyone cares about this factory and the fate of this factory can this factory have a way out, this factory will not be defeated or squandered by some people, our reform can be successful, and we will have a future..."
Before Xue Huading finished speaking, a worker shouted in the crowd: "We don't listen to these official accents! We just need to answer whether you sell those good equipment."
"Yes! Let's not listen to this nonsense!"
"The officials are all clueless and just say some nonsense."
...
Xue Huading looked at everyone with a smile. When they waited for their voices, Xue Huading said loudly: "Sell! Must sell!"
All the workers and other factory leaders present were stunned and looked at the straightforward Xue Huading with incredible eyes.
Before everyone could come back to their senses, Xue Huading asked loudly: "Before answering why the sale is, I would like to ask everyone a question: Are you willing to let those good equipment lie in the warehouse and rust, and we don't have a penny on hand, so that our wives, children, and parents can go to the vegetable market to pick up vegetables that others don't want?"
Everyone didn't answer for a long time. After a long time, a person asked loudly: "Then will the money be distributed to us after you sell these good equipment? Even if you share it with us, and if we share this time, let us eat for one or two years, what should we do in the future? If there is nothing in the factory, what else do you want to sell it?"
Xue Huading pointed his right hand in the direction of his voice and shouted loudly: "You asked well! It means you have thought about the problem." After pausing, Xue Huading said, "These equipments are sold, but how to sell them? After the money is sold, we will divide them privately? What should we sell them in the future when we have no money to eat? I will honestly answer everyone here that this time is not simply sold! The money sold cannot be divided privately by us, because the money belongs to the country, and you and I have no right to divide them. What should we do?"
