Chapter 2424: How did they come over?

~7 min read 1,362 words

Yin Deshan said to Su Xinghui with confidence, "Team Leader Su, this is absolutely no problem. The workers in the factory still have deep feelings for the factory. When the time comes, as long as the factory resumes production, they will definitely come back as soon as they are called."

Su Xinghui said, "That would be great. Old factory director, during this period, please help me ask for the opinions of those workers who have already found jobs outside. If the factory resumes production, can they come back? I want to know how many people are willing to come back. After all, the jobs some people found should be quite good."

Yin Deshan hesitated a bit. Although he had confidence in the workers in the factory, after all, the factory had not paid living expenses for a year now. He did not know what the workers' sense of belonging to the factory was. He knew that this matter was very important for the Yanzhong Textile Group, and he could not speak recklessly.

Therefore, Yin Deshan nodded and said, "Fine, I will ask everyone these days to see if they are willing to come back to the factory."

Su Xinghui said, "How about this, it's almost November now. You can inform everyone by the way, saying that the factory will pay everyone a month's living expenses in November, and let everyone come back to the factory to collect it."

Yin Deshan said happily, "Team Leader Su, if you do this, then everyone's hearts will definitely be warmed, and more people will be willing to come back."

Gu Zhilin said, "Team Leader Su, doesn't the factory have no money now? This is not a small amount of money. Where can we find this money?"

If Su Xinghui could really pay a sum of living expenses to these employees in the factory who had not received a single cent for a year, that would definitely be a thing that greatly boosted morale and would also greatly enhance their sense of belonging to the factory. After all, these people all entered the Yanzhong Textile Group as soon as they started working.

At that time, a unit meant a lot to these employees. This was not just a job, but their home. Their honor and everything were tied to this. Even if the company stopped production for two years and stopped paying wages for one year, this sense of belonging did not disappear, just faded.

But as long as the factory started paying wages again, it could immediately awaken their sense of belonging to the factory. Yin Deshan understood this point very well.

But Gu Zhilin was very rational. If retired personnel were included, the Yanzhong Textile Group had to pay wages to nearly 40,000 people every month. Even if this time it was only paying living expenses, paying one or two hundred yuan per person would require several million, which was completely an astronomical figure for the current Yanzhong Textile Group.

Su Xinghui said, "You don't need to worry about this. I will find this money."

Yin Deshan and Gu Zhilin were both very moved. For Su Xinghui, the Yanzhong Textile Group had absolutely no emotion to speak of. He came here just as a task. He only needed to do his part.

But now what Su Xinghui was doing far exceeded what he should have done.

Look at what he had done so far? He used connections to let the Power Bureau send living electricity and production electricity to the Yanzhong Textile Group one after another. He also used connections to let people send coal to the Yanzhong Textile Group, allowing these workers to use heating. Now he was also preparing to find money himself to pay living expenses for these workers. Each and every one of these was a major event related to the workers' vital interests!

Yin Deshan said, "Team Leader Su, I am completely convinced by you!"

Because of excitement, Yin Deshan's beard trembled. Su Xinghui said, "Old factory director, don't get excited, you are at such an old age."

Yin Deshan said, "I'm fine, my body is good. I still want to live to see the day when the factory is glorious again!"

Gu Zhilin said with a smile, "It seems I also have to try hard to live. I also have to see that day. If I can't see it, I will die with regret!"

Su Xinghui smiled, "Don't worry, you will definitely be able to see it."

Gu Zhilin wanted to say something else, but he suddenly coughed violently again. Su Xinghui hurriedly helped him pat his back very naturally. Gu Zhilin coughed for a few minutes before calming down. He shook his head and said, "Sigh, this body of mine is far worse than the old factory director's."

Su Xinghui said with concern, "Chief Engineer Gu, why don't you go to the hospital for a good check-up?"

Gu Zhilin waved his hand and said, "No need, it's just that I'm old, my body is not as good as before, and it's easy to catch a cold. This time the temperature dropped suddenly, and there was no heating, so I caught a cold."

Su Xinghui said, "Then now that there is heating, it should be much better, right?"

Gu Zhilin nodded and said, "Yes, a few days ago I could only boil hot water and fill hot water bags to sleep, but I still felt cold. Now that heating is supplied, the house is much warmer."

Yin Deshan said, "Fortunately, you came, Team Leader Su. Otherwise, in a few days, the weather will get colder and colder, and I don't know how everyone will live."

Yanbei Province is located in the north. In the coldest time of winter, it can reach minus twenty or thirty degrees, and water drips into ice. Without heating, it is simply unimaginable. From this point of view, Su Xinghui came just in time.

Su Xinghui said, "Old factory director, this is what I should do. The Yanzhong Textile Group has made huge contributions to the country and the people in the past few years. These contributions cannot be erased. Now the workers of the Yanzhong Textile Group have fallen to this point, which is not right. This is a crime! So we must make up for this mistake."

Yin Deshan and Gu Zhilin's tears were almost coming down. In the past two years, they did not know how many factory problems they had reflected to relevant departments, and they did not know how many whistleblowing letters they had written, but there was basically no response. They once had doubts, but now, they finally waited for hope.

In their minds, Su Xinghui represented the Central Committee, and his affirmation of the Yanzhong Textile Group's workers also represented the Central Committee's affirmation. This kind of affirmation suddenly poked their tear points.

Yin Deshan said, "Thank you, thank you! Thank you, Team Leader Su, thank you, Party Central Committee!"

While Yin Deshan was speaking, he wiped his tears. Gu Zhilin and Qin Heshun also accompanied him to wipe their tears on the side. These were all iron-willed men who had never cried even when encountering more difficult situations, but at this moment, they shed tears.

Su Xinghui hurriedly changed the subject and said, "Old factory director, in the past year, the company didn't pay you living expenses, how did everyone live through it?"

Yin Deshan said, "Sigh, it's a long story! Like Guan Physician and his wife, they are considered good. They have a skill and can open a small shop. Some people set up a car repair stall on the roadside, some go to shine shoes, some go to pick up rags, and some go to do odd jobs. But the most miserable ones are those who go to karaoke halls to accompany singing."

Su Xinghui couldn't help but think of the female worker who was a model worker and cried that day. She cried that her daughter was accompanying others to sing in a karaoke hall. He asked, "Are there many female workers in our factory who accompany singing for others?" ===== CHAPTER 2426 =====
