"You two are busy!"
Dafa and Li Shu were busy moving goods when they heard a sound that made them extremely sick.
"What are you doing here? We are not slacking off!" Li Shu glared at Wang Dehai with disgust.
I don't understand what a lazy guy like him is doing in the warehouse.
He and Dafa had been secretly observing Wang Dehai these past few days, but apart from bullying the workers in the workshop, he hadn't done anything unusual.
So the two of them had been controlling their tempers these past few days, and in order to prevent Wang Dehai from finding any evidence against them, they had been working diligently to move goods in the warehouse.
"Brother Li Shu, look at you, why are you so anxious?" Wang Dehai waved his hand cheerfully, "I'm not some monster, I just came to take a look."
Wang Dehai acted in an approachable manner, and people who didn't know the situation would think that he, Li Shu and Dafa were good brothers.
There were a lot of fabrics piled up in the warehouse of the garment factory. Some of the fabrics had been there for a long time, and a faint musty smell permeated the air.
In another corner, there is a pile of scraps of cloth, which are the leftover scraps from sewing clothes. These can be used as employee benefits and can be taken home to mend clothes or make soles.
Of course, some clothes that have been finished but not sold yet are also piled up in the warehouse, but these clothes are separated from the fabrics.
Overall, the warehouse is well organized.
Li Shu saw Wang Dehai walking around after he came in, standing here for a while and then moving to another place to look around. He couldn't help but sneer, "What's so good about this warehouse? Can you see a flower? Don't dirty the feet of a director like you!"
Wang Dehai was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he smiled and shook his head and said:
"Brother Li Shu, if you ask me, you are just too stubborn. As a newly appointed director, isn't it normal for me to inspect everywhere?"
"The warehouse is the most important part of the factory. I have to be careful. Otherwise, I can't take the responsibility if something goes wrong."
After saying that, Wang Dehai shook his head and continued to walk around the warehouse.
It really looked like he was here to inspect.
Li Shu spat, "Tsk, I don't believe you're so diligent!"
In the next few days, Wang Dehai seemed to have suddenly changed his personality and would come to the warehouse every day.
Li Shu and Dafa have gotten used to it, having gone from being shocked at the beginning.
At first they suspected that Wang Dehai had ulterior motives. After Wang Dehai left, they carefully observed the places he visited but found nothing unusual.
Later, Li Shu and Dafa thought that Wang Dehai was just having a fit, or that he wanted to come and laugh at their jokes.
After a long time, they just focused on their work.
On this day, Uncle Niu, who had been guarding the warehouse, suddenly felt unwell and asked for leave from the factory.
The incident happened suddenly and there was no suitable person to replace him.
There are so many things in the warehouse, and they must be left unattended.
"If you ask me, we should let Li Shu and Dafa stay to look after the warehouse! They have been in the warehouse for such a long time and are familiar with it. What do you think?" Wang Dehai suddenly stood up.
After working all day, who wants to work overtime at night? That’s why no one expressed their opinion just now.
Now that Wang Dehai mentioned Li Shu and Dafa, everyone looked over with flickering eyes.
Wang Dehai looked at Li Shu with a smile: "Now is the critical time for autumn clothing, which is related to the factory's performance in the next quarter. At this time, we need to sacrifice some personal interests. Are you willing to do so?
"We are willing." Before Li Shu could get angry, Dafa agreed first.
The performance of the factory is related to the welfare of the employees. If the performance is good, the employees can get more things during festivals and maybe even bonuses.
Wang Dehai has said so much. If the two of them don’t agree, and the factory’s performance is not good, won’t they become the sinners of the factory?
Wang Dehai's face was full of smiles, and he seemed very satisfied with Li Shu and Dafa: "Great! You are willing to contribute to the factory, and the factory has also expressed its appreciation. During this period, Uncle Niu's salary will be given to you, and the factory will also subsidize you an additional half a month's salary!"
When the workers who had kept silent at first heard that there was a half-month wage subsidy, they felt a little regretful.
This Wang Dehai is really something, why didn’t he tell me about the subsidy earlier!
Can working for free be the same as having a salary? !
"Big deal, Li Shu, you guys made a profit!"
"Yes, yes, it seems that Wang Dehai is not that bad. He gave you such a good opportunity."
"Everyone thinks he still holds a grudge against you!"
Li Shu and Dafa smiled stiffly: "Really? We didn't expect that... Don't worry, we will guard the warehouse well..."
That night.
The flames that reached the sky turned half the sky red.
Thick smoke billowed endlessly.
The two people who were originally guarding the warehouse fell to the ground.
No idea of what was going on.
"Oh no! It's on fire!"
"Someone come! There's a fire!"
"Fire! Someone come and put out the fire!"
The drunken scoundrel lying on the street was the first to notice something was wrong, and the alcohol that was corroding his brain instantly disappeared with fright.
He stumbled to his feet, shouting as he ran.
If this fire really starts, the entire garment factory will be burned down!
"Well, what's the noise outside? So late at night..." A couple was woken up from their sleep, and the husband grumbled in dissatisfaction.
The wife is more perceptive: "No, it sounds like someone is shouting for help..."
"Oh, it's true!" The husband turned over and sat up, "Hurry up and put out the fire!"
"Oh my god! Why is it suddenly on fire?!"
"There is a well in my yard, come here to get water!"
“I have a well at home, too!”
"Whether it's a bucket or a basin, use it!"
"Men, be brave and come to the front! Women are carrying water in the back! Hurry!"
…
Countless people like this couple were awakened and joined the fire-fighting team with buckets of water.
If the fire spreads, not only the garment factory, but also the houses outside will be lost!
There is strength in numbers.
Thanks to the joint efforts of nearby residents and the firefighters who arrived, a fire that had not yet taken shape was extinguished in its infancy.
By the time the leaders of the Shanghai garment factory arrived, a long cordon had already been set up at the scene.
Some public security comrades in uniform were investigating and dealing with the aftermath inside. There were also people watching the fun, pointing and talking, and they refused to leave even late at night.
Of course, there are also speculators among them who want to see if they can pick up some bargains from the warehouse. After all, everyone is busy putting out fires and has no time to keep an eye on everyone.
"It's over! It's all over!" Factory Manager Guo Jianwen rushed to the scene and saw that only half of the warehouse was left.
The black charcoal dust in the sky dyed everything around it dark.
From time to time, there is the sound of broken walls and ruins falling.
Almost all the cloth that had been stockpiled was burned to ashes, but fortunately the new clothes that had been made recently were not affected by the fire.
But compared with the losses suffered by the factory this time, it is just a drop in the bucket.
