Lin Shangzhou and the others came to the living room of his villa under the leadership of Raven, and Raven beckoned them to sit down, but only Lin Shangzhou sat on the small sofa, and everyone else stood in the living room.
Raven sat on the big sofa placed against the wall and said to Lin Shangzhou with a bitter expression: "I have heard the demands of the workers, but it is a little difficult for me to improve the treatment now..."
"But I can improve the treatment of Mr. Hipper and other foremen first, and then gradually improve the treatment of the workers, Mr. Hipper, what do you think?"
Two of Raven's three sentences are excusing himself, and the meaning of wooing Lin Shangzhou and the three of them in the last sentence is also obvious, Huo Wen and Chris sneered at him like this, and Lin Shangzhou didn't listen to him, and turned his head to observe the living room of Raven's villa.
The living room is large, with furniture such as sofas on one side and a collection cabinet on the other.
Goebbels and Eric became interested in them, and stepped forward to observe the collection inside through the glass, and Lin Shangzhou also became interested in these collections, so he got up and walked to Goebbels' side to observe the objects inside with them.
Raven didn't know what Lin Shangzhou's calculations were doing this, although he was dissatisfied with Lin Shangzhou's ignoring his words, but in order to win over Lin Shangzhou, he could only endure it.
"Mr. Raven, you have a really rich collection of things here, do you usually like to spend a lot of money to collect them?"
Lin Shangzhou stroked the glass with his right hand, carefully observing the collection inside.
"Mr. Hippel, you are wrong, this is just my personal hobby, and it will not cost me a few marks.
Raven said.
"Can I take them out and watch them?"
After hearing Lin Shangzhou's request, Raven hesitated for a few seconds, but finally agreed.
"Of course, if you like it, you can take it with you, and take it as a gift from me.
Raven pretended to be generous, and this sentence made Lin Shangzhou turn his head and look at him in surprise: "I didn't expect you to be so generous, Mr. Raven."
Then he turned his head and said, "Why don't you go to the factory workers for your generosity?" and "
I believe that the simple workers will thank you more than I do."
Raven frowned slightly, and the idea of driving Lin Shangzhou out in his heart became stronger and stronger, but in the end he endured it.
"Collections are just collections, I still have a lot of them, but Mark... As I said earlier, the factory is not profitable, and there is no way to be generous to the workers.
Lin Shangzhou opened the cabinet, took out a well-made gold-plated pipe from it, he took the pipe in his hand and played with it, turned around and rubbed the pipe while asking Goebbels beside him: "Paul, you have seen more than me, how much do you think such a pipe can be worth?"
Goebbels chuckled, leaned over to observe the pipe, looked at it for a while, and said, "He has the name of a certain family engraved in Russian, and it is estimated that it is something from a Russian noble officer who was captured during the Great War, at least 500 marks." "
500 marks..."Lin
Shangzhou whispered to himself and put it back in the collection cabinet.
"The hourly wage of the workers is 9 pfennigs an hour, and the daily wage of a day is 1 mark, and there are more than 300 workers in the factory, less than 350, and if this thing is sold, the workers will be paid more than a day's wages..."
Raven didn't know how to answer, and when he was thinking about how to answer, Lin Shangzhou continued: "Since Mr. Raven said that the factory's recent income is not good, then why don't you find a way to increase the profit?"
If you really want to increase profits, then why do you want workers to work 11 hours a day to produce products?
"Isn't this just increasing electricity bills?"
"And if the income is really bad, then you, as the owner of the factory, don't you try to make the income positive?"
Lin Shangzhou returned to the small sofa and sat down and crossed Erlang's legs, he looked into Raven's eyes and asked, " Or are you actually preparing to file for bankruptcy, Mr. Raven?"
he folded his hands as he said this, and he looked suddenly enlightened.
"Oh~ I see, in fact, you are preparing to file for bankruptcy, right? After all, the income of the factory is so bad, you can't even afford the wages of the workers, and Boss Raven, you like to spend a lot of money to collect all kinds of collections, if you don't file for bankruptcy, the factory will not be able to open.
As he spoke, Lin Shangzhou made an empathetic look and said, "Then let's do it, you generously say that you plan to file for bankruptcy, so that I can also go outside and give an explanation to the workers." "
You're all bankrupt, and you can't even open the factory, so how can you pay us wages
?" "The workers know that you are bankrupt, so naturally they won't think too much about the treatment, so we will go back to our respective homes directly, and the factories are all bankrupt, so why are you still working inside?"
Lin Shangzhou's yin and yang weird look made Lei Wen angry and wanted to say now: Yes, I'm bankrupt! You guys hurry up and get out of here! It's time to go home and go home, Lao Tzu Factory is gone!
But his three newspaper people made him dare not say this, if he really said it, his words would be in the newspaper, and then it was he who would be difficult to end, and the workers left his factory and could go to work in other factories, but he, he felt very aggrieved.
Huo Wen and the others were holding back laughter, they didn't expect Lin Shangzhou to be such a disgusting factory owner.
Looking at Lin Shangzhou who showed an understanding smile, Raven was like a deflated ball, he suddenly felt angry in his heart, didn't he just want to improve his treatment, he just improved himself, he really didn't want to see this Chinese who kept disgusting himself now.
He leaned back against the sofa and said to Lin Shangzhou: "Aren't you here to negotiate, then let's talk quickly!" Lin Shangzhou
smiled slightly and said: "Since you said so, then let's start negotiating
" Then he took out a notebook from his coat pocket, turned a page and read it out according to the first request above: "First, we ask for an hourly wage to be increased to 30 fennig." "
What!?30?!"
Raven suddenly straightened up, looking at Lin Shangzhou with an incredulous expression, 30 Fenny?
Not to 15 pfennig.
He suddenly changed his words in the middle of his words and added 5 pfennig, and he felt that if he only raised 1 pfennig, this Chinese would definitely disgust himself with words like "You're going bankrupt, aren't you?"
But what he didn't know was that as long as the standards he proposed did not meet Lin Shangzhou's requirements, then Lin Shangzhou would always be disgusted with him.
"15 Fennig is too low for me to explain to the workers.
Lin Shangzhou said without hesitation, and then rubbed his chin with his right hand and said thoughtfully:
"But if I tell them that you are about to go bankrupt, then everyone may be considerate of you who are going bankrupt and accept this hourly wage standard..."
Lin Shangzhou smiled kindly and said to him:
"Since you are willing to raise it to 20 pfennig, doesn't this mean that the factory has not gone bankrupt? Since it is not bankrupt, why not raise it some?"
"I am Chinese, Chinese have always liked to compromise, it is better to add your 20 pfennig and mine 30 pfennig and divide by two, 25 pfennig, what do you think?"
Raven gasped and glared at Lin Shangzhou's eyes, and in the end he was still deflated, 25 pfennig is 25 pfennig, he just wants to send this uncle away quickly.
"Okay!25 Finney!" he
nodded feebly.
"Ahh Thank you very much for agreeing to our request.
Lin Shangzhou smiled brightly, turned his head to look at Huo Wen and Chris behind him, and winked at them, the two of them were very crying and laughing, they thought it would be a negotiation full of gunpowder but the result became so funny.
"Then you need to agree to the factory to implement an eight-hour working day and a two-day rest system, do you agree?"
Raven nodded without hesitation, he had already raised the hourly wage of workers to 25 pfennigs per hour, if he still worked 77 hours a week, then after a few months, the factory would really not be able to make ends meet.
Reducing working hours is a good for him in that regard, at least that's what he thinks.
Lin Shangzhou nodded with satisfaction, the purpose of his deliberate increase in hourly wages was to get the factory boss to agree to the second article, if the boss did not agree to the eight-hour working week and two days off, it didn't matter, anyway, he was the one who paid the wages to the workers, this strike had already taught him a lesson, at least in terms of wages, he would definitely not dare to delay it anymore.
"Thirdly, we need you to agree to sign a contract for each worker in the factory, and you will also have to hire workers in the future.
Lin Shangzhou said the third point, and Raven still nodded without hesitation.
He felt that no matter what Lin Shangzhou asked next, he felt that it didn't matter.
Seeing that Raven agreed to the three most important points, Lin Shangzhou and the three of them were very happy, especially Huo Wen and Chris, the two of them didn't expect Raven to agree so easily.
The remaining three demands were agreed, but he hesitated for a few seconds when it came to the union, and finally agreed unconditionally.
After Raven agreed to the demands of the workers and other grassroots employees of the factory, Lin Shangzhou asked Meng Qi for two pieces of paper, on which he wrote the content of the agreement for Raven to sign, of course, this is only temporary, and the formal agreement will be supplemented later.
Raven picked up the pen and signed his name on two pieces of paper with a depressed face, and Lin Shangzhou hesitated when he signed and was about to write his name, and after thinking for a few seconds, he signed: All the workers of Raven Machinery Factory and all other grassroots employees.
The strike is a strike by everyone, so it should be signed as such.
Lin Shangzhou picked up a copy of the agreement and got up from the sofa, he smiled and said to Raven: "I'm glad you can agree to all our requirements, our negotiations are very pleasant."
"I'm going to take the workers back to the factory after the strike, and I hope you don't forget to go to the factory in the afternoon to deal with the aftermath." "
Finally, I wish you a nice day.
After sending his blessing to Raven, Lin Shangzhou walked out of the villa with Huo Wen and the others, leaving Raven with a tired face.
"Bad luck..."
Raven sat on the couch and looked up at the ceiling, he never imagined that he would encounter such a thing.
Lin Shangzhou came to the door and looked at the contents of the paper, he was very excited in his heart, this time the strike was a complete victory
! Although his way of negotiating was not so formal, there was no doubt that he prompted Raven to agree to their demands
, and he agreed to all of them! Lin Shangzhou suppressed his excitement and quickly walked out of the courtyard to the anxiously waiting workers, he waved the paper in his right hand, and shouted to the workers excitedly: "We have won!! When
Lin Shangzhou received the news of the victory of the strike, violent cheers erupted among the workers.
Then Lin Shangzhou signaled the workers to be quieter, and the workers forcibly suppressed their emotions and quieted down.
"Next, I want to tell you the results of my negotiations with Mr. Raven, first of all..."
Lin Shangzhou's last voice was very long, he deliberately sold a pass, and the workers also waited with bated breath for Lin Shangzhou to speak.
"Our hourly wage has increased from 9
fennigs per hour....""It has been raised to 25 fennigs per hour!!"
The workers who had been quiet cheered again with Lin Shangzhou's words, this time their cheers were not enough, several excited workers stepped forward to grab Lin Shangzhou's limbs, and after they moved, other workers also surrounded them.
This startled Lin Shangzhou, and before he could react, he felt his body being lifted, and the next second he was thrown into the air by the workers.
At the moment when he was suspended in the air, Lin Shangzhou's heart lifted, and after falling down and feeling the strong palms of the workers, he was relieved again.
He laughed out loud, laughing and telling the workers to push harder.
Lin Shangzhou knew that no matter how high he was thrown, the workers would catch him and let him land safely.
After throwing Lin Shangzhou into the air several times, the workers put him down.
Then he also told the rest of the good news to the workers, which made the workers excited again, and the consequence of their excitement was that Lin Shangzhou was thrown several times.
Huo Wen and the others stood aside and looked at Lin Shangzhou who was thrown into the air and laughed, Goebbels looked at Lin Shangzhou who was thrown into the sky thoughtfully, and then grinned and shared this happiness with them.
