Siheyuan: I earned foreign exchange in the heyday

Faced with the questioning of many workers, Liu Binghui really didn't know what to do at this time.

The development of this matter was completely different from what Liu Binghui expected.

The original plan was to follow what Chen Changan said at the meeting, first telling the workers to delay their wages for a few days, and then using the New Year benefits to appease the workers.

As a result, the workers knew the news before Liu Binghui did, and they directly questioned Liu Binghui, catching him off guard.

If you are in the army, you can make people quiet down instantly just by yelling a few times, and you can suppress people with just a few words about discipline.

But the workers don't care about you. It looks like if Liu Binghui doesn't give the workers an explanation today, he may not be able to leave the cafeteria.

Liu Binghui helplessly picked up the loudspeaker and shouted, "Workers, please be quiet. The factory didn't say we won't pay you, it's just a few days late."

"Why is it a few days late? Is it because the factory is out of money?"

"The accountant ran away with the money. Does the factory have any money left to pay our salaries?"

"What is a few days later? Chinese New Year is coming soon. Who doesn't buy some New Year's goods for the New Year?"

Chen Changan originally wanted to go to the bank directly with Liu Hongjun and a few security officers.

Later, after being persuaded by several people, I decided to finish my meal before going to the bank.

As a result, when Chen Changan, Shi Heping, Hou Yan and Liu Hongjun appeared at the cafeteria door together.

Liu Binghui was seen surrounded by workers at the canteen entrance. Liu Binghui was talking with a loudspeaker in his hand, and the workers were also talking.

Seeing everyone talking at cross purposes, Liu Binghui was sweating profusely. The workers were emotional and the situation was about to get out of control.

Chen Changan immediately stepped forward and pushed through the crowd. He snatched the loud speaker from Liu Binghui's hand and shouted with all his might, "Everyone be quiet."

For a moment, the ears of the workers standing in the front row were buzzing. The scene also became quiet.

"I'm the factory manager, Chen Chang'an. Everyone, be quiet."

Seeing the workers gradually quiet down, Chen Changan continued, "What's all the noise about? How can a motorcycle factory this big be short of your little money?"

"The accountant took all the money away. There is no money left in the factory."

In the quiet environment, a voice suddenly appeared in the crowd.

Chen Changan shouted to Liu Hongjun, "Liu Hongjun, go to the crowd and arrest the person who just spoke."

Chen Changan and Liu Hongjun may not know who is shouting in the crowd. But someone in the crowd knows, and after hearing what Chen Changan said, they subconsciously want to stay away from the person shouting.

Now there was no one around the person who was speaking, so Liu Hongjun went in directly to arrest the person.

The arrested person was still shouting, "Why are you arresting me? What qualifications do you have to arrest me?"

After seeing Liu Hongjun taking the people away, none of the workers offered to help.

No one is stupid and they don't really want to cause trouble. They just want the factory leaders to give an explanation. They can't just not pay their wages.

Just make it clear when and how to send it.

The factory director and secretary were all here, and you were arguing with him while he was speaking. This clearly shows that there is something wrong. Everyone just wants an explanation, not to lose their job.

After Liu Hongjun took the people away, Chen Changan looked at the expectant eyes of the workers around him and said, "First of all, I don't need to say much about the situation of the motorcycle factory, everyone knows it.

With such a large factory and a production capacity of tens of thousands of motorcycles per month, how much can it cost to pay your wages? Just use your brain and you will know.

Don't just believe what others say. Even if the factory has no money, so what?

Tens of thousands of motorcycles are sold to foreign countries every month, and the exchange value is foreign exchange.

I don't need to explain what foreign exchange is, right? Will the Ministry or even the country agree that the factory won't pay you wages? If the factory doesn't pay, neither the Ministry nor the country will agree."

Many workers finally breathed a sigh of relief, as what Director Chen said did make sense.

Our motorcycle factory is an organization that earns foreign exchange. How could the ministry and the country allow the factory not to pay the workers?

Even if the factory has no money, can the ministry and the country have no money? With so much foreign exchange earned every month, who would believe that there is no money?

Chen Changan continued, "The financial staff in the factory are not familiar with the business, so they cannot pay today's salary.

In order to make up for it, the factory will distribute some of the New Year benefits to everyone today. This is mainly because our factory has too many New Year benefits, and we are afraid that you can’t take it all at once, so we will distribute it in two installments.”

When they heard that they couldn't get their wages today, some people wanted to say something, but when they heard that New Year benefits would be paid today, everyone immediately smiled happily.

Then Chen Changan continued, "Everyone can rest assured. In a few days, the factory will pay you wages. You must trust the factory and the country."

Following Chen Changan's speech, the workers basically dispersed. It was just a matter of paying their wages a few days later, but wasn't this paying out New Year benefits in advance?

Just like what Director Chen said, how could it be possible that the workers really wouldn’t be paid? The people who are trying to sow discord must have problems.

Chen Changan then shouted, "Okay, okay, let's go eat quickly. We still have to work in the afternoon. Only when we are full can we have the energy to work."

With Chen Changan's calls, the workers were finally calmed down and they began to line up for meals.

Chen Changan also wiped his sweat. Fortunately, Chen Changan still had a high status in the workers' hearts and the workers believed in him. It might not work if someone else came.

Take Liu Binghui for example. Although he was the leader in shouting slogans during the weekend movie shows, the workers were very active. However, when things really got bad, his position in the workers' hearts was not as high as Chen Changan's.

At this moment, Liu Binghui stood aside awkwardly, not knowing whether to leave or not.

In fact, most leaders who have just returned from civilian jobs are like this. They have never experienced such things and have no experience in dealing with such things.

Some people are afraid to use the same tactics they used in the army against the workers.

Some people manage workers in the same way the army manages soldiers, and they don't know how to adapt, which easily leads to problems.

Chen Changan ignored Liu Binghui as he had a lot of things to do today.

After a quick meal, I explained to Hou Yan that I would distribute some New Year supplies in the afternoon, and asked Liu Hongjun to arrange for more patrols.

Afterwards, he took two armed guards and Chen Changan and rode a motorcycle to the bank.

If it wasn't for something, Chen Changan really didn't want to ride a motorcycle, but there was nothing he could do.

Ten minutes later, Chen Changan and his team arrived at the bank. After meeting up with the people arranged by Liu Hongjun, they began to understand the situation.

The bank director, the client who handled the business for Accountant Xu, Chen Changan, and Liu Hongjun sat together in the bank's conference room.
