Chapter 1195 Control group in the 1990s (4)
At two o'clock in the afternoon, there was a long queue of employees signing to receive money at the factory office door.
Xu Wu came earlier and was among the first in line.
Zhou Quan, who came to the factory office to help, saw him in the team and was very unhappy: "Old Xu, what I said to you in the morning was in vain! Why are you so short-sighted? Alas..."
He originally wanted to persuade other employees by saying, "You see, Lao Xu didn't even come." Now I have to think of another way to say it.
If Father Xu hadn't heard from his daughter that Lao Zhou had signed a job security agreement with the factory, he might have felt guilty at this moment, feeling that he had let down Lao Zhou's good intentions. But now, he felt a little uncomfortable.
"Old Zhou, we are different from you. The family has no money, and there is no guarantee if we continue to stay. It is better to take this compensation and go out to find a small business."
Zhou Quancai: “…”
I wonder if this old guy knows something?
Worried that if he continued talking, his secret would be revealed, Zhou Quan stopped chatting with Xu’s father and turned to lobby other employees.
The factory agreed to sign a job security agreement with him on condition that the factory should retain a group of people who were willing to pay to help the factory tide over difficulties. If it cannot be completed or is poorly completed, the job security agreement may not come into effect.
He spent the past two days trying to convince a few people to come and sign, which was far from the retention quota given to him by the factory.
After Zhou Quancai left, the employee behind Xu's father asked: "Old Xu, what do you mean by saying there is no guarantee for staying? Didn't you mean that if you lend 50,000 yuan to the factory, you can keep your job?"
Of course, it was impossible for Father Xu to betray his daughter. He told the other party with the meaning he understood: "I heard that the iron ore in our area is almost mined. The factory does not need so many workers, so they laid us off. It is not a restructuring. I wonder what guarantee I can get by staying here? Sooner or later, the iron mines will be dug out, and everyone will have to be laid off. Since we are going to be laid off sooner or later, it is better to accept our fate now, receive the compensation and go out to look for opportunities."
"Old Xu, what you said is so right! I actually heard some rumors earlier, but Old Zhou told me that the factory will encounter some difficulties for a while due to restructuring. Once it gets over the difficulties, It will still get better. When the time comes, only the backbone will be left... If my wife hadn’t needed money to give birth to a child, she would have believed in his decision to stay."
Xu's father smacked his lips and said, "Lao Zhou told me the same thing, but when I think about it, he's not the factory leader, so what's the use of his guarantee?"
"That's right! Lao Zhou is not the leader of the factory, can you believe what he says? Fortunately, my family was tight on money and signed the contract. If I really believed him, I wouldn't be in trouble if I turned back."
“Thanks to my short-sighted wife, she only wanted to get cash, so she forced me to sign.”
“It seems like it’s better to just take it and run if you don’t have any money at this time.”
"Hahaha!"
The long queue of employees was like a solitaire, one after another saying that it would be better to receive the money. If they stayed, not only would they not see the 20,000 yuan, but they would also have to pay 30,000 yuan. The problem was that they would be laid off soon. By then, it’s hard to say whether the money posted will be available back.
Zhou Quancai finally lobbied a few times. He went out to urinate and smoke a cigarette. When he came back, he wanted to lobby again before the employees signed. When he looked up, he saw that the employee who had just agreed to him was in the team again, saying yes. If you regret it, you should just get paid and be laid off.
…”
He was confused: What's going on?
Xu Wuyi couldn’t see anything wrong. Lao Zhou wouldn’t settle a score with him, right?
Hurry up and sign, collect the money and leave.
Oh no! I forgot to ask the comrades in the factory office about housing reform.
When Xu Yin walked in, she saw that her father had already signed and received the money, and was whispering something to a young man from the factory office. She walked over and stretched out her hand: "Dad, where is the money?"
ˆXu’s father: “…”
Prodigal child!
What's the matter with asking your father and me to hold it for a while? I'm not your mother, and the money in my pocket won't fly to my mother-in-law's house.
The employee next to him saw this and asked jokingly: "Old Xu, why did your family's money manager change? Isn't it your daughter-in-law?"
“Yes, Yinyin said that she will be in charge from now on.” “…”
…”
…”
Xu's father lowered his voice and talked about the house to his daughter: "Yinyin, you guessed it right. I asked Xiao He just now, and he said that there is such a policy now. Because it was just issued, the factory leaders were still discussing what to do. Implementation. He just went to ask the factory director for instructions. The factory director was very happy and said that if our family is the first to cooperate with the factory in buying a house, he will definitely give us a south-facing room with a balcony."
“Then what are you waiting for? Let’s complete the formalities now.”
Now spend 20,000 yuan to buy two houses, and in a few years they will be demolished and replaced with six houses. Where can I find an investment with such a high return rate?
I received 20,000 yuan and before I could warm my hands, I changed two rooms.
Xu’s father wanted to wait for other employees to free up and then upgrade to two south-facing rooms with balconies.
The room they live in now faces north, with only one window and no balcony. To dry clothes, you have to take them to the rooftop platform. On rainy days, you can only dry them in the dark corridor.
Forget the trouble, the key is that it doesn’t see sunlight all year round, and no matter how clean it is, there is always a musty smell. His wife complained constantly, blaming him for being unlucky and getting a north-facing house. She complained until his ears were calloused.
If he could get a south-facing apartment with a balcony this time, his wife would probably stop worrying about it.
Xu Yin wanted to see if there were two-bedroom or three-bedroom suites. The single rooms in the tube building were too private. She would rather pay more to get a larger suite. Anyway, the demolition would be based on area. .
After paying the money and receiving the receipts for the property ownership certificate, the two men came out of the finance room with smiles on their faces and stared at the employees who signed to receive the money.
"Lao Xu, I heard from Xiao He that you bought the house you live in? The factory didn't urge us to move out, so why are you spending this wasted money?"
This man had the same idea as Xu’s father before lunch.
Xu's father had just been praised by the factory leaders for being enlightened. He was very happy and said cheerfully: "After being laid off, I am no longer an employee of the factory. I still feel sorry for occupying the dormitory assigned by the factory. I just received a compensation." , I simply bought it.”
“There’s no need to buy two rooms. I heard from Xiao He that one room costs 9,500 yuan. If I buy two rooms, 20,000 yuan is gone. What are your plans next?”
That’s right, what’s your next plan?
The smile on Xu’s father’s face froze.
I was brainwashed by my daughter during lunch. As soon as I put down the dishes and chopsticks, I rushed to line up to get money to buy a house. I forgot what to do if I lost my stable source of income after being laid off.
He looked at Xu Yin with a depressed face: "Daughter, you said that you will be the boss from now on, but now you only have one thousand yuan left, do you still want to take it?"
Xu Yin couldn't help but want to laugh. Her father was such a ruthless person that he would believe anyone who brainwashed him.
“Dang! Leave it to me!”
Xu’s father’s eyes lit up: “Have you thought of a way to make money?”
"almost."
“Let’s go, let’s finish the work and go home!”
Father Xu was eager to know what his daughter was doing for a living, and urged her to go home and tell her in detail.
Other employees looked at it blankly:
Lao Xu really made his tomboy daughter the head of the family?
Go crazy!
