Chapter 147 Whose child will be taken away?

It is said that it is winter now, and farmers are all hiding at home, so it should be easy to find someone. How long will it take to call someone from door to door?

Not to mention that Shi Guozheng went to the coal mine alone to appease the workers and asked his son Shi Dali to immediately withdraw money from the village savings bank. Even if he went to the city to withdraw money, it would not take long. As long as Shi Guozheng said that he had gone to withdraw money,

Wages were guaranteed to be paid today, and the workers' mood immediately stabilized.

There are only about thirty workers left in this small coal mine, and five to six thousand yuan should be enough.

"A person like Shi Guozheng is happy with money in his pocket, but asking him to take it out would be like killing him!" Zhou Maocai said through the window.

"The question is, how can you make money without spending money from outside?" Wang Weidong said.

Shi Guozheng's team finally appeared. He was walking at the front wearing a cotton coat. The few people following him were all the people who sat on the same kang as Wang Weidong that day, eating pig meat and drinking wine. Among them was Qu

Wen Fu.

Behind these few people were a sparse group of twenty or thirty people, including the middle-aged man surnamed Wei who went to Shi Guozheng's house that day to treat him to pork-killing vegetables.

"Those people who followed had to come, and now they are gloating about the misfortune." Zhou Maocai said.

Shi Guozheng walked into the coal mine and stood in front of nearly twenty workers, pointing at them and saying: "Do you know what you are doing now?! You have made a very, very serious mistake! You have committed this crime of poaching production corners!

"

Seeing Shi Guozheng coming, seven or eight workers involuntarily shrank back. They were all from Tuanjie Village. They had nothing to do in the winter to make money in the coal mines, but now they were scared when they saw Shi Guozheng.

But the twelve workers who came from other places to work in the coal mine did not back down.

"We can't pull coal out today if we don't get paid!" a worker said loudly.

"It's not yet the day when wages are due. How come the coal mine won't pay you when wages are due?" Shi Guozheng said.

What this old fox said was that coal mines should pay workers, not him. Tuanjie Coal Mine pays wages on the 20th, which is equivalent to a month's salary. Shi Guozheng planned well, and wages will be paid in more than 20 days.

There were days when he was trying to find excuses to blame Wang Weidong.

Unexpectedly, just a few days after the October wages started, these workers asked him for November wages!

"Now that the coal mine has been subcontracted, the new ones are asking us to leave today. Today is the 30th. If you give us your wages, we will leave immediately!" another worker said.

Only then did Shi Guozheng know that Wang Weidong had fired all the workers in the coal mine at once. He couldn't help but look back at the window of the office. Wang Weidong was standing behind the window looking at him.

"What, that Wang Weidong fired you all? Just wait here and I'll go find him to reason with you!" Shi Guozheng said indignantly.

"You guys follow me in!" Shi Guozheng said to the people behind him.

Walking into the office, Shi Guozheng said in a face-to-face manner: "Wang Weidong, how could you do this! Fire coal mine workers as soon as you say! Fire them and tell them where to make money to support their families? Do you still have any conscience?"

"I also have more than 20 workers with me. They also have to support their families. Besides, there are several coal mines nearby. It is not difficult for them to find work. If they can't find it themselves, I can find it for them." Wang Weidong said.

"The coal mine has been subcontracted to you now. You should pay their wages before they leave!" Shi Dali said from behind.

"What they want to pay is November's wages. The coal they mined in November was taken away by you. It's up to me to pay the wages. Isn't this appropriate? Whose child will be taken away? You should still pay the wages."

!" Wang Weidong asked.

"Weidong, as an elder I have to say something to you. Why do you always think about money at such a young age? People's hearts are full of flesh, and it's not easy for workers. You can't do this!" Qu Wenfu said.

"If you can't do this, what should I do? Can you set an example for me and raise the wages of workers outside?" Wang Weidong said.

Shi Guozheng and the others were speechless for a moment and could not answer.

Wang Weidong pointed out the window and said: "I can also pay the workers' November wages for you, but the pile of coal outside is mine, as are the dozens of tons of coal that have been mined underground but have not been transported out yet!

"

"How can this be done? We have already sold this coal." Shi Dali said.

"Since this is the case, I have no choice." Wang Weidong said.

Outside the window, dozens of people brought by Shi Guozheng were divided into several groups, chatting and laughing without any nervousness at all, and could not act as a deterrent at all.

"Weidong, I still have great prestige in this area. Who can disobey me in the past twenty years? From now on, your coal mine should have a good relationship with the village." Shi Guozheng said something very meaningful.

"You mined the coal and you took it away, so you should pay the workers' wages. Since the coal has been sold, you have the money to pay wages, so what's the point of spending a little to pay the workers?" Wang Weidong said.

When Shi Guozheng walked into the office, Zhou Maocai quietly went out. When he came in again, he brought in several new workers.

The remaining dozen workers walked out and stood in the open space of the coal mine.

Shi Guozheng also felt the pressure.

"Since it doesn't make sense, let's leave!" Shi Guozheng said.

For someone like him, if he didn't take advantage this time, he would be at a disadvantage.

Shi Guozheng led a few people to the dozen workers blocking the front of the truck and said: "The coal mine has just opened wages for October, and now there is really no money. Can you give me a break for a few days? I will definitely do it in a few days."

Open your salary."

These workers are also people with rich business background, and they don't listen to Shi Guozheng at all.

"If you don't give us expenses today, we won't let you pull coal!" said a worker.

Shi Guozheng was very angry today. He couldn't control even the dozen workers in front of him. His prestige was ruined in front of dozens of people from Tuanjie Village. This was a more serious matter than losing thousands of dollars.

Looking at the dozen or so workers in front of him who shared the same hatred, he then turned to look at the more than twenty new workers standing nearby. Shi Guozheng said to his son Shi Dali: "Go, immediately go to the village savings bank to withdraw the workers' wages."

Sent!"

"Thousands of dollars are just gone?" Shi Dali said unwillingly.

"Hurry up, don't lose the big for the small! From now on, ride on the donkey and read the songbook, we'll see!" Shi Guozheng said.

Seeing his son walking away angrily, Shi Guozheng said to the workers: "You see, Dali went to the countryside to borrow money. He just begged his grandpa and grandma to pay your wages today! Those who worked in the mine during the day shift went back to work underground.

Work, if you don’t work, fifty yuan will be deducted!”

Wang Weidong saw from behind the office window that the matter was finally resolved. He turned back to Zhou Maocai and said: "Start pulling back the materials needed from the mine as soon as possible tomorrow!"
