Chapter 052 Mr. Zhou (Part 2)
Zhou Nan's tall figure was bathed in the brilliant sunshine. Under the high bridge of his nose, a sunny smile floated on the corner of his mouth, forming a firm and easy-going arc.
Zhang Dongsheng strode towards Zhou Nan, and Zhou Nan also walked over quickly.
At the gate of the factory, just as the two of them were about to shake hands and exchange warm greetings, a dozen workers suddenly appeared out of nowhere and surrounded them with a roar. There were thick beads of sweat on each man or woman.
, On the simple face filled with anxiety, pairs of suspicious and complicated eyes were projected on Zhou Nan without exception.
Zhang Dongsheng's hands were sweaty, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly. He shrugged with a wry smile and said softly, "Brother, I have been waiting for you for a long time. I heard that you were coming today, so I have been waiting for you!"
"This is Mr. Zhou, our new boss..."
Zhou Nan let go of Zhang Dongsheng's hand, looked around at everyone, and smiled slightly, "Don't worry, everyone, I know what everyone wants to say... Let's go inside and talk!"
After saying that, Zhou Nan separated from everyone and walked directly into the messy fragrance factory compound. On the front were three cement bungalows with simple signs hanging, which should be the "offices" of the factory. On the right side were a row of glass tiles and iron buildings.
The factory building is made of a mixture of shelves and aluminum alloys. On the left side, there is an open shed with a lot of raw materials and scraps piled inside.
Zhou Nan stood in the courtyard and turned around. The dozen workers who were owed wages rushed in and immediately surrounded Zhou Nan, their eyes full of suspicion and expectation. On the contrary, it was Zhang Dongsheng who was squeezed out.
Outside the crowd, he rubbed his hands with a wry smile and looked at Zhou Nan inside.
Zhou Nan stood there with a smile on his face, unhurried. He had come prepared today and had made sufficient mental preparations. He asked Huang Qiuling for a loan of 500,000. In addition to paying the workers' back wages immediately, he also wanted to
Used to resume production.
The reason why he has not come to take over the factory is because the loan has not been approved. Now that the loan has been settled, he naturally rushed over as soon as possible. After all, this fragrance factory is already an industry in his name.
"Masters, don't be anxious. The factory owes you wages, and I won't miss you a penny. Please wait patiently for a week. Today is Tuesday, August 13th, and the latest will be August 20th, which is next Tuesday.
I will definitely repay everyone’s salary. Not only will I repay everyone’s salary, but I will also repay you an additional month’s salary. You are welcome to stay and work.” Zhou Nan waved his hand and said with a smile.
A short, middle-aged man in his 30s with slightly dark complexion, wearing a light-washed sky blue half-sleeved cheap shirt, walked out of the crowd and stepped forward, saying loudly, "Mr. Zhou, we have been waiting for two days.
It’s been more than a month, and we can’t let it go on like this any longer. We strongly demand that the factory repay our wages immediately. It’s over, we don’t want to work here anymore, we want to go back to our hometown!”
As soon as the man finished speaking, many workers started shouting and echoing, "We quit, settle our wages, and we want to go home!"
"I quit, I quit, this factory is too bad..."
Zhou Nan frowned secretly, but a gentle smile appeared on his face. He could tell at a glance that this man was the "foreman" of more than ten workers, and he had a certain degree of prestige and appeal. He smiled and extended his arms to the man.
He took action and asked, "What is this master's name?"
"Mr. Zhou, my surname is Liu, and my name is Liu Qiang." The man said neither humble nor overbearing, stretched out his hand and let Zhou Nan hold it, with a very calm expression.
There is something interesting about this guy... Zhou Nan stared deeply at Liu Qiang with bright eyes.
After a while, he smiled slightly and said, "Master Liu, there is no problem with the funds. It's just that I have just taken over this factory and I still need to do some basic work, such as reconciliation and liquidation of assets and equipment. Even if I have to repay everyone's wages, I
You have to ask someone to settle the payment first, right? I need some time! As I said just now, it will take one week, at most one week. Please wait patiently, Master Liu, and I will definitely reissue the full amount to everyone.
salary, plus one month’s salary will be repaid and compensated!”
"As for whether you are still willing to work in the factory, it all depends on your wishes. The factory will never force you."
Liu Qiang looked at Zhou Nan, as if he was looking for something in Zhou Nan's calm and indifferent eyes, but in the end he could only read some kind of well-prepared calmness and calmness. He hesitated, let go of Zhou Nan's hand, and backed away.
Taking a step forward, he turned around and shouted to the workers around him, "Everyone, please leave. We'll come back next Tuesday!"
The crowd dispersed suddenly, Liu Qiang turned around and left without haste, but before he took two steps, he was stopped by Zhou Nan, "Master Liu, please stay here!"
Liu Qiang was startled, and immediately turned around and looked at Zhou Nan quietly.
Zhou Nan smiled, took a step forward and said, "Master Liu, can I talk to you?"
Liu Qiang nodded lightly, "I will listen to Mr. Zhou's instructions."
Zhou Nan chuckled, "I can't talk about orders, I just want to talk to Master Liu, and talk about the factory by the way... Where is Master Liu's family from?"
"My family is in Qing'an City." Before Liu Qiang finished speaking, Zhou Nan said in surprise, "We are still fellow villagers, haha, my hometown is also in Qing'an City, and my grandparents are in Qing'an - Tai in the suburbs.
Do you know Shanzhen?”
"Taishan?" Liu Qiang was surprised and laughed, "Mr. Zhou, I am from Taishan. Which village is your hometown from?"
"Zhoujiazhuang..." Zhou Nan's smile became more intense, "The more I talk about it, the closer I get. Haha, which village are you from?"
"I'm from Gemstone Village, not far from Zhoujiazhuang, haha."
…
…
Zhou Nan has a very special and gentle temperament, which makes it easy for him to communicate with others. Especially after establishing a relationship with a fellow villager, Liu Qiang's mood obviously relaxed, and his suspicion and vigilance towards Zhou Nan disappeared instantly.
Dissipated.
The two squatted in a corner of the courtyard, smoking cigarettes face to face, and talking happily. Zhang Dongsheng waited at the gate a little depressed, not knowing where Zhou Nan's interest came from, and what he was talking about with such a worker.
As expected by Zhou Nan, Liu Qiang is different from ordinary migrant workers. He used to be a private teacher in the village and also served as the accountant of the brigade. Because his family really needed money, he reluctantly left a group of student leaders in 1992.
He followed several fellow villagers to come out to work, and they have been working in several nearby flavor factories. Later, they switched jobs to Zhang Dongsheng's factory, and he can be regarded as an "expert" in the flavor production industry.
This man was educated, thoughtful, and steady in character. He had always been the backbone of the workers in the factory. It was precisely because of this that Zhou Nan patiently and deliberately got close to him.
"Master Liu, please tell me how much wages the factory owes everyone?" Zhou Nan asked with a smile.
Liu Qiang took a deep drag on his cigarette and replied with a slow smile, "Mr. Zhou, starting from March, the factory will not pay wages. Of course, we can understand, because since this year, the factory's efficiency has been
It's all bad. It has basically been in a state of suspension since May. But, Mr. Zhou, those of us who have left our homes and careers behind, there are seniors and juniors, it is even more difficult to earn a few hard-earned money by working outside.
Ah, no matter what, the factory has to settle wages for everyone."
"I made an estimate, and based on an average of 300 yuan per person per month, it would be 1,200 yuan for four months. There are a total of 16 workers in the factory, which should add up to more than 20,000 yuan."
"Oh, it's not much. Haha, don't worry, Master Liu. At the same time, I also ask you to tell everyone that I will not lose everyone's wages in arrears in the factory, but I will also give you some compensation as much as possible." Zhou Nan said.
Waving his hands, he stood up and stared at Liu Qiang, "The factory will resume production soon. I hope Master Liu can help me with my work. I advise everyone to stay and continue working..."
"Also, I have another idea. I want to ask Master Liu to be the production supervisor of the factory. He can help me manage the factory first. The monthly salary is 800, and there will be a bonus at the end of the year! For these, I can sign a labor contract with Master Liu. In the contract
Make it clear!”
As soon as Zhou Nan finished speaking, Liu Qiang was startled and stood up immediately, his face turned red, the cigarette butt in his hand trembled slightly, and he was speechless for a moment.
