Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

10 am

Le Xiao stood in front of the dormitory of Department 12 at the Eastern Agricultural Base. The hot breath hit her face. She opened her collar and had a lot of work on hand. Le Xiao now regretted interjecting. She just said one sentence and was assigned. Coming over, Wu Lei smiled helplessly.

"You are serious. Even I have been dragged into the water. Although a lot of work in my hands is almost completed, I want to have a good rest."

Le Xiao smiled helplessly.

"Just help me."

Wu Lei took out his mobile phone and opened a light and shadow screen. It has indeed been too chaotic recently. Due to the large shortage of labor in the eastern agricultural base, the daily output of food on the market fluctuates. Although the 12 subjects have once again improved their agricultural work The normal salary for workers at the base has reached 1,200 a month, but many people would rather set up stalls on the ground floor than come to the agricultural department.

Although someone will definitely come if the salary is increased, this is not a solution. 1,200 a month is already the limit. If it continues to increase, it will inevitably cause inflation.

The entire city's labor force has reached its limit. If mechanization is adopted rashly, it may cause immeasurable consequences in the future. If machinery is used for farming and harvesting, the biggest consumption is not materials, but electricity.

At present, the city's power generation is difficult to support the use of farming machinery, so it is now faced with a dilemma. Although there is a way to solve it well, the large labor force population in barrier areas is the best choice, but currently in the city, these barrier areas There are also a lot of voices of rejection.

Le Xiao was listening to the report of a director of Section 12. There were problems in settlement and accounting to varying degrees, mainly because the population was too mobile, so problems arose. Now many workers in the Agriculture Section are planning to leave. , even if their wages are increased, they will leave.

But at this moment Wu Lei thought of something, why would Michelle hand over this matter to Le Xiao?

This made Wu Lei suspicious. After all, the agricultural base is related to the problem of food for everyone in the city. If it is not done well, it will evolve into a big problem. And now the problem has begun. It can be seen from the daily food output. Out, this kind of out-of-position volume may fall to the bottom one day in the future.

"Could the Secretary-General be thinking..."

The sides of Wu Lei's forehead were tense, and he felt something strange. Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible to leave this kind of thing to a rookie like Le Xiao to deal with. Looking at her dizzy look, Wu Lei Now he could only think about somewhere. He looked at the eastern guard station and the dark barrier area behind.

"Is it that lacking?"

Le Xiao muttered, and soon she frowned slightly. How to solve it now is the problem, but where can we find so many people now?

"How about raising the salary to 2,000?"

As soon as Le Xiao finished speaking, many people around were shocked. Wu Lei hurriedly grabbed Le Xiao and whispered softly.

"You pighead, if wages increase, there will be a serious gap between production capacity and consumption. Then inflation will rise, and an egg will rise to one or two yuan. What are you going to do?"

Le Xiao swallowed, she smiled awkwardly, her cheeks were slightly hot. Under everyone's gaze, Le Xiao had only one solution after much deliberation.

"Take me to see how the workers are doing."

Wu Lei looked at Le Xiao in confusion. After a while, Le Xiao sat in a car and quickly went to a corn harvest field. At a glance, there were tens of thousands of people working in the fields. Le Xiao thought again I worked here all day before I got up, it was really killing me.

In fact, Le Xiao really hopes to increase her wages. After all, such hard work requires only a small amount of pay. This is unfair to those who work in the fields. Although food is provided, such a small amount of food is not enough for many people. It really doesn't have much appeal.

A large number of directors from Section 11 and Section 12 followed Le Xiao. The members of the nearby sections stopped what they were doing and came to gather. Le Xiao thought about it and entered a somewhat hot shed and looked at Le Xiao walked over to a bunch of workers harvesting and asked.

"Why doesn't everyone want to be here now?"

A worker who was breaking corn laughed.

"Of course I don't want to be Master Le Xiao. The salary is too low. Now if you go to the bottom and find a job, the salary will not be less than 1,500, and the prices at the bottom are very cheap."

Le Xiao asked another worker, and the answers he got were almost the same. Everyone couldn't stand the high-intensity work here. They had to endure the scorching sun and the wages were very low. Many people planned to leave after working for a month and getting paid. .

Now Section 12 has no choice, so they can only let these workers work for a full month, but many of them are about to expire. This is a fatal blow to the entire agricultural base. Now most of the prisoners in Section 11 are Already working in the fields from morning to night.

"Where can we find so many people?"

Le Xiao sat in the Middle Realm Tower, finally feeling a little cooler. She rested her chin on her hands and looked at the horizon in the distance.

"Why don't we get the people from the barrier area in? The Eastern Guard Station is very close to here anyway, isn't it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, many people's expressions became solemn, because most people in the city still have prejudices against people in the barrier area. If a large number of people from the barrier area are allowed to enter the farmland, no one will be responsible if something goes wrong. Can't afford such responsibility.

"Do it."

Le Xiao stood up and said with a smile, Wu Lei stopped her immediately.

"Everyone go out first, I have to discuss it with Master Le Xiao."

After the others left, Wu Lei said worriedly.

"If you really do this, who will be responsible if something goes wrong? There are indeed some criminals in the barrier area. What if they cause problems in the agricultural base? And there are lurking rioters, just in case."

"How come there are so many precautions? Aren't the agricultural bases extremely short of manpower now? We can't raise wages too much, and we can't use machinery. Doesn't it mean that machines cost electricity? If machines are used, many surrounding areas will have power supplies. Question, isn’t this more troublesome?”

Wu Lei laughed and said while pressing his forehead.

"I'm really convinced by you. Your idea is really too simple."

"Oh, just do it, there won't be any problem. They are in the dark all day, unable to do anything, starving and freezing every day, but they still get paid for working on the farm, isn't that good?"

Wu Lei sighed.

"I know, I will start to calculate. Their wages cannot be the same as those in the city, because their arrival means the population has increased."

Le Xiao stood up and patted Wu Lei on the shoulder.

"I'll leave this matter to you. I have a lot of things over there that I have to deal with."

Wu Lei grinned slightly and sighed.

"I understand, go ahead and I'll take care of it. I'll send it to you once I've put together a detailed plan."

Le Xiao nodded, got up and planned to leave, because she did have too many things at hand, and she really wanted to go back home, because Jean finally went back to live there.

After Le Xiao went out, he waited for a while for a helicopter from the General Affairs Department to land. Wu Lei and a bunch of governing officers watched Le Xiao leave. Only then did a governing officer speak.

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate to do this, Master Wu Lei."

"There's nothing wrong with it."

Wu Lei naturally knew what everyone was worried about, and then he said with a smile.

"Everyone, let's just follow Master Le Xiao's wishes. Master Le Xiao will be responsible for anything that happens."

After Wu Lei finished speaking, the atmosphere in the scene relaxed a lot. Wu Lei was also helpless. He probably knew what Michelle meant. No matter what the chief of the business department tried to do, it would not work. Only Le It is most appropriate to promote Xiao, the center of the storm.

Now the entire city's public opinion is on Le Xiao's side. No matter what she does, most people can think about it and accept it. After all, she is like a blank sheet of paper and a mirror, and her thoughts are very simple, so naturally It can convince many people, and they will be convinced again after seeing the actual results.

Wu Lei immediately contacted the directors of Section 3 of the Eastern Security Station and asked them to start large-scale publicity in the barrier area. As long as they have labor force, they can enter the city to work after passing the test, including the elderly and children. .

Wu Lei then arranged for the directors of Section 11 to immediately prepare a list of long-term instructors, who need to teach people from the barrier area to effectively carry out agriculture.

Wu Lei is very clear that the current situation is extremely serious. He must make a plan for you within today, and then ask Le Xiao to submit it to the General Affairs Department. As long as there are no major problems, it will be passed quickly, and this matter must be done quietly. It can only be done quietly, and we can only hold a press conference after the news spreads.

Because facts speak louder than words, as long as people in the barrier zone work in the agricultural base for a period of time without causing any problems, even if this matter has been exposed, those opponents will have no reason to refute.

Wu Lei decided to adopt the same strategy of shutting down the door. He immediately told all the directors that this matter must not be spread to outsiders. He even asked the directors of Section 12 to divide all the planting land close to the eastern agricultural base as soon as possible to allow people in the barrier area to go Work.

11 a.m.

A large number of reporters have poured into the film and television area, conducting follow-up reports and interviews. Tian Ai's unfair dismissal has caused great controversy. Everyone who saw the report felt that Tian Ai had been unfairly dismissed. Fair treatment.

If only a few cooperation projects were cancelled, it might be reasonable, but suddenly all the 26 projects that Tianai had recently signed contracts with were canceled by the client.

Everyone knows why, because Tianai has served as a consultant for the 13th cinema construction proposal. Many people have already interpreted this proposal. The reason why the cinema has not been able to start construction is because the cinema plans to build cinema facilities in the surrounding area. Facilities come.

This will cause many stores on the ground floor to completely lose their competitiveness, and they will easily be squeezed out of the market by stores around the cinema. Because there are too many such examples, many supporting facilities of the cinema are extremely complete and mature chain systems, with good With low quality and low price, you only need to squeeze out the surrounding market, and then you can make money steadily.

Many people are criticizing the behavior of these capitalists, especially many merchants at the bottom, who are very worried about this problem. However, fortunately, after Section 13 took over the bill, they did not agree to the proposal to build surrounding supporting facilities for the cinema, so this construction bill was delayed. It was too late to pass and work could not start normally.

Many people were watching from the outside of a street in the film and television area. Tianai was at a filming location on this street. The bosses of several major film and television companies came over, and Section 5 had already set up a guard outside. Wire.

There was chaos throughout the film and television area as many companies were investigated.

"Oh, Miss Tian'ai, you don't have to be so angry. There must have been some misunderstanding, so this happened. Lao Li and his company have always been very transparent, and there is absolutely no such thing as malicious dismissal. ."

Jiang Hao said, and Li Jia on the side immediately agreed.

"Yes, Miss Tianai, I have asked people from various departments to investigate. I don't know what the situation is. It is a great honor for us to have you cooperate with our company."

Tian Ai chuckled, but then her face suddenly changed, and she said faintly.

"I don't care about any misunderstanding. Either you admit that you discussed with each other in private to fire me, or you continue to investigate. I will not withdraw the case until the investigation is clear."

The faces of several businessmen around him were livid. The whole thing was getting worse. They had already called the congressman, but there was no response from Beckinsale. Jiang Hao looked at his wife standing in the distance and kept looking at him. With a wink, several directors around him didn't know what to do. After all, this was an order from above. If Tian Ai didn't withdraw the lawsuit, they could only investigate.

At this time, a director took a few steps, and several businessmen hurriedly approached, seemingly talking about the case, but the director immediately spoke.

"You have gone too far this time. It is not good for you to offend anyone."

Honghong came over anyway.

"Tian Ai, can I have a few words with you?"

"Can."

After Honghong sat down, Jiang Hao left with the others.

"I'll give you 10 million, plus some important work in the next five years. How do you feel about it?"

Tian Ai laughed coldly.

"Ten million is a lot. You can keep the flowers for yourself. I've long been used to it. Don't you have money? It's good to have money, right?"

Facing Tian Ai's naked ridicule, although Honghong was angry, she knew that there was no point in continuing to fight Tian Ai at this time.

"Then what do you want Tianai?"

Tian Ai put her hand on her chin and laughed.

"What can I do? I won't take the hard way now, or do you want to use other methods?"

Honghong sighed.

"Don't be upset, come to my house tonight Tianai, I will let them apologize to you in person, how about it?"

Tian Ai put away her smile.

"late!"
