Zuo Li's words indeed stopped the people outside from taking any drastic actions for a while.
"Will wages really be paid?" Naturally, most workers don't want to cause trouble and are here just to get their wages back.
For these workers, there is almost no balance from their monthly salary.
All must be used to support the family.
Especially for the previous group of people, there were many children at home, and some families even had to support their children, wives, and even parents all by themselves!
A lot of pressure.
This is why they can be easily influenced.
Once it is linked to survival, it will always be more exciting.
Even some of them are smart enough to sense that something is wrong.
But in order to survive, they are also willing to take risks.
Because if it really is the worst case scenario, they have to learn to fight for themselves.
Zuo Li nodded quickly, "Yes! We brought money today, but if you gather people like this, there will be no way to pay everyone's wages.
After all, when wages are paid, they always have to be recorded, or do you think everyone wants to grab money?"
When the word "rob" was mentioned, someone quickly said: "Of course not, we won't take the share that doesn't belong to us, we just want our own wages back."
After all, Mrs. Gu has never been in arrears with wages in the factory before, so something must have happened to her this time.
We are all ordinary workers, and we don’t know how to care about other major issues. We just want to get back what belongs to us!”
Hearing someone say this, Zuo Li nodded happily.
It's really not stupid, everyone can still think.
"I completely understand what everyone means, so now everyone lines up and I will pay everyone's wages now.
I am the wife of Factory Director Gu, and I am here now, you should believe it. There are so many of you, is it possible that I can still run away? "
"Of course we believe Mrs. Gu!"
"Yes, as long as you can get your own salary, then you'll be fine!"
"Is Mrs. Gu really prepared to pay wages?"
Zuo Li relaxed a little when he heard what these people said.
I even started to want to get off!
However, the next moment, the sound of breaking glass was heard!
"Ah, big brother!"
Zuo Li's heart suddenly thumped. The sound of breaking glass came from behind!
And she heard Gu Beibei's scream.
Originally, the only person sitting in their car was Gu Suiyang.
After hearing the sound, Gu Suiyang opened the car door directly.
"You guys stop it!"
Zuo Li secretly thought that was terrible!
"Oh, did you really just listen to this woman's words? If you can delay salary arrears this time, won't you be able to do it next time?
Think about it, everyone, have you never heard of wage arrears in other factories?
If we don't make a big deal this time, something like this will happen again in the future!
Everyone must be united so that in the future, all working class people will not be owed wages!
Guys, what we are doing now is not only for the previous wages, but also for our entire working class.
Everyone should not say such things to this woman now, but should unite as one.
Don't worry, if something happens this time, I will bear it alone. I am not afraid of anything, not even going to jail. I just want to fight for something for our working class.
Don’t forget that we are able to live a life of adequate food and drink because of the struggle of our ancestors.
Since there has to be someone to take the lead and someone to point the gun, so what if I come?"
When Zuo Li heard these words, he was so angry!
These words are extremely inflammatory!
Sure enough, she saw other people who seemed to be inspired by these words.
More people were aroused and their faces were full of excitement.
"Yes, what we do today is not only for ourselves, but also for countless workers like us!"
"Yes! We can get paid today, isn't it because we are united?
The chairman is right, unity is strength, we must unite today to fight for the rights and interests that belong to more of our fellow workers!"
Zuo Li didn't care about his own safety and started to open the car door.
Everyone, stay calm and don't be incited by malicious people!
Now in our country, everyone is equal, and it is the most harmonious country in the world. Absolutely no one will invade everyone's rights.
But if everyone does something dangerous today, there will definitely be serious consequences.
After Zuo Li got out of the car, before these people could react, he went to the back of the car.
Then I saw that the glass of the car behind me had been broken.
Gu Yuanzheng, who was sitting in the rear parking space, had blood all over his hands and arms.
Gu Beibei was sitting on the other side, fine.
But if the commotion continues like this, something will definitely happen.
Looking at the wounds on Gu Yuanzheng's hands, it was obvious that he was trying to protect Gu Beibei's injuries.
Zuo Li was extremely angry!
Like a lioness trying to protect her cubs, she opened her arms and blocked the broken car window.
He said in an almost roaring voice: "If you have any problems, come to me! I am the wife of the factory director, and they are both still children!"
Why are you bullying them? I brought the children here today because I think the problem can be solved. I believe in your character. Don’t you all have children at home? "
When the child was mentioned and Gu Yuanzheng's injured arm was mentioned, most people calmed down.
But a skinny middle-aged man sneered, "Children? Well, they are not children anymore. When I was their age, I started to work as a worker, and why should I believe what you say.
You may have been a worker before, but now you fly up the branches and become a phoenix. See if your clothes are remotely similar to ours?"
Zuo Li heard this and looked at the speaker.
Then he quickly recognized the person's identity.
This person is considered a cadre in the workshop, but he also has another identity, that is, the husband of Sun Hongmei, who is very fond of gossiping about people and is even criticized by Zuo Li!
Zuo Li saw this man's fearless look, and it was obvious that he felt that he had climbed to a high tree and dared to cause trouble like this.
Of course the person who spoke before was not him!
This person is most likely one of the extremely stupid ones, someone who was instigated by those with malicious intentions.
Zuo Li said, "I remember you are Sun Hongmei's husband. What you said today, can you be responsible?
Yes, when I heard Sun Hongmei talking about other female workers, I stood up and said a few words to her.
I think it's normal to offend her for this.
But that is our personal grudge! You should not stand up and say such words today to lead others to do irrational things."
Sun Hongmei's husband instantly became angry with embarrassment and said, "What are you talking about? What I said today is obviously not because of personal grudges, but because of us workers."
Zuo Li wanted to say something else to delay the rhythm, but suddenly someone sneered: "Don't waste any more words, you must apologize today!"
"Yes, come with us to the parade and let more people know the faces of you people!"
Zuo Li's complexion changed drastically!!!
Parading on the street didn't happen before.
After all, she hasn't forgotten that it's only 1981.
"Impossible, these things today were not done by us at all. What are your intentions in making trouble while my husband is away?
Other comrades, since my husband has been the director of this steel rolling mill for a year, has he done anything that has harmed everyone's interests?
Not only that, I remember that the factory has already raised wages twice, right?
Nowadays, many people in the steel rolling mill are trying their best to squeeze in. Why? Is it because of unpaid wages?
Isn’t it just because the treatment in the factory is good? This is well known to everyone. So I advise everyone not to be taken advantage of by people with malicious intentions. From now on, you can never work in the steel rolling mill again.”
Zuo Li's words were more useful than all his previous words put together.
Some people showed hesitation on their faces.
"Mrs. Gu is right. After Director Gu arrived, the treatment in the factory has improved. You can buy better food at the same price in the canteen, and you can also eat meat."
"Yes. It is true that the salary has been raised twice, and even employees with outstanding performance will receive additional bonuses."
"Yes! Factory Director Gu is gentle and not arrogant at all. Is what we did today going too far?"
"Yes, the people inside are all the children of Factory Director Gu."
People were talking a lot, but the person who obviously wanted to cause trouble hid in the crowd and shouted,
"Don't be deceived by this smooth-talking woman, she is just afraid of emails because it will harm her interests.
Why? Because she is no longer a worker, but has climbed to a high branch.
From now on, she will not consider our workers at all."
Zuo Li: "Nonsense!"
Zuo Li almost said in his loudest voice: "Why am I like this? Don't forget, my parents, my brother, and even my sister in the future will also be glorious workers.
The reason why I didn’t continue working was to avoid suspicion. Otherwise, do you think I don’t want to work?”
"Huh, who would want to work? I'm so rich! If I were as rich as you, who would want to work? Don't let her fool you again."
This time, before Zuo Li could say anything, more than a dozen women rushed over.
These people were not the people in front, but people who appeared from nowhere in the team. They were obviously this group of people.
He is the one who incited these workers to cause trouble!
These dozen or so people came here solely for Zuo Li.
"Don't touch my little stepmother," Gu Suiyang rushed over. What surprised Zuo Li was that not only Gu Suiyang, but also Gu Jixing in the passenger seat also rushed out immediately and blocked Zuo Li!
Then, Zuo Li could only watch helplessly as those people's fists were swung at Gu Suiyang and Gu Jixing.
"Stop! Don't hit them!"
Zuo Li has never encountered such a thing, and it seems that such a thing will not happen in modern times.
Everything she thought before was too reasonable! Things were far worse than he thought!
Zuo Li tried his best to squeeze past Gu Suiyang and Gu Jixing, then turned around, hugged the two people's waists, and pushed them towards the car.
Almost instantly, she felt as if someone had punched her back several times!
She is not a strong person, and these fists hitting her body only made her feel excruciating pain.
And these people clearly did it on purpose!!!
"Little stepmother, what are you doing? Get out of the way!" Gu Suiyang shouted anxiously.
Gu Jixing also growled in a hoarse voice: "I don't need you to do this!"
However, Zuo Li hugged the two teenagers tightly for the first time, "Stop talking, get in the car quickly! Get in the car!"
However, when they wanted to get into the car, these people gave them no chance.
At this moment, some workers rushed up and pushed those people away.
"Don't hit women and children!"
"Yes, what kind of man is a man who beats women and children? I think something is wrong with you people! Hurry! Catch them, big guy."
"Yes, even if we want justice for the workers, we are definitely not bullying children and women. Anyway, I, Qin Tianzhu, am not such a person at all!"
"Am I Li Er? Everyone, hurry up and catch these people!"
Zuo Li was stunned. She originally thought that today was going to be bad, but she didn't expect that these workers who had been aggressive before would stand up now.
Zuo Li soon discovered that those with bad intentions had been controlled by these workers.
There was a thin man among them who was still yelling: "What are you doing? I'm helping you!!"
One of the workers said: "Okay, is that a lie? Help us? If you can't help yourself, then she seems to be someone with evil intentions. Everyone must catch her."
"Afterwards, this person will be sent to the police station."
"That's right. I saw that this person just punched Mrs. Gu several times. I'm afraid he was out for revenge."
"Everyone should be quiet now. We all need to be good. We are fighting for our own rights, but we are not throwing our fists at others.
Not to mention they are just women and children, even if the person standing here today is a strong man, we cannot rely on the number of people to charge forward!"
Hearing these words, Zuo Li felt relieved.
But the next moment my legs started to feel weak.
Her back hurts!
I'm afraid the injury will be serious!
Fortunately, Gu Jixing and Gu Suiyang supported Zuo Li on both sides.
Gu Yuanzheng also opened the car door at this time and squeezed in towards Gu Beibei.
"Hurry up and help Aunt Zuo over."
The two of them did what they said. Zuo Li wanted to lean on her back, but her back hurt so much that she could only hunch forward.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, you don't have to worry."
Zuo Li's face was pale, and cold sweat even broke out on his forehead. He looked pitiful.
But it happened that this person still said words of comfort to others.
"How could it not hurt? I just felt pain after being punched by those people a few times. But you were hit even more!
You said you are a woman, why do you have to run out? Can't you just stay here with peace of mind?
I told you that I am here to protect you."
Gu Suiyang's voice was very loud. It was full of anxiety, and at the same time he was a little more nervous.
Next to him, Gu Jixing's face was gloomier than ever before, and his eyes were filled with gloomy and complicated emotions as he stared at Zuo Li.
"That's right, I didn't ask you to block it for me."
Zuo Li reluctantly said: "I know, it has nothing to do with you. I am... okay, I admit that I am in a little pain now, so young masters, can you please stop lecturing me?"
Zuo Li almost lost consciousness from the pain, and her head gradually became dizzy.
No! You can’t be in a coma!
Zuo Li bit her tongue.
At this time, she suddenly heard a voice that she had missed for a long time.
"Control those people and keep everyone quiet."
This voice belongs to Gu Feichen!
Zuo Li had a string of tension in his mind before, trying to force himself to stay awake.
Because there are still some things he needs to do next.
But the moment she heard Gu Feichen's voice, the string in her mind suddenly collapsed.
