Wei Chunming coughed twice to hide his guilty conscience, frowned and said, "Okay, I got it. Put the things on my desk and I'll sign them when I get back."
He looked very businesslike, and there was no trace of the gentle and soft words he had spoken a while ago.
Liu Jing secretly hated him in her heart. This bastard is teasing me and now he’s refusing to admit it, right?
Although she cursed Wei Chunming thousands of times in her heart, she showed an extremely aggrieved expression on her face.
"Okay, I'll go back now..."
As soon as she turned around, the expression on Liu Jing's face quickly turned cold.
She came here today specifically to block Wei Chunming, but she didn't expect Wei Chunming's attitude to change so quickly.
However, she didn't originally want to be with him, so she wasn't sad.
As long as he can get his brother a permanent job, her efforts during this period will not be in vain.
After Liu Jing walked away, Wei Chunming's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
This woman, Liu Jing, has become so bold that she even dares to block him on the road.
It seems that I need to transfer her away as soon as possible, otherwise it will be a trouble to keep her around.
Wei Chunming made up his mind and went to the construction site.
"Director Wei, you're here!"
Dong Bin's eyes were moving around restlessly, he wanted to make sure every corner of the construction site was under his surveillance.
Therefore, he discovered Wei Chunming almost as soon as he appeared.
"Dong Bin, how's the situation today? How far have you progressed?" Wei Chunming didn't know much about building a house, but he couldn't show his fear. He would look around after arriving.
When Dong Bin saw Wei Chunming asking in a pretentious manner, he sneered in his heart.
He rolled his eyes and said vaguely, "Everyone is working hard and no one is slacking off. I estimate that in a few days, the foundation will be ready."
"How many more days will it take to finish the foundation?" Wei Chunming looked unhappy, thinking that the workers were being lazy. "Tell them to speed up as much as possible. The fabrics in the factory are still waiting to be put in a place. It's a big deal if they delay the production!"
Seeing Wei Chunming's righteous face, Dong Bin felt even more disdainful.
It sounds nice, isn't it just about saving workers' wages?
These workers are paid by the day, so if they work a few days less they can save a few days' money.
These labor costs are nothing compared to the material costs, but a small amount is still meat.
Dong Bin helped Wei Chunming manage things on the construction site, so he naturally knew the tricks involved.
When Wei Chunming eats meat, he can also drink some soup.
It’s just… he didn’t want to take responsibility, and some words had to come from Wei Chunming’s mouth.
"I'm afraid..."
Seeing Dong Bin hesitating, Wei Chunming said unhappily, "What's wrong? The repair of this warehouse is a great thing for the factory. Don't they want to work overtime? This won't do. People should have a spirit of dedication..."
A worker who had been eavesdropping nearby could not help but say, "Director Wei, we have already been working overtime. We have not stopped except for eating and sleeping. How can we be asked to work overtime? We don't even eat or sleep?! Do you want us to live?"
At this point, the worker became angrier and slammed the shovel in his hand to the ground, saying angrily: "Even in the old society, people were not exploited this way! You are even more cruel than Zhou Baopi!"
"Yes, Director Wei, you might as well sell me off and see if you can get another old workhorse to come back and do the job."
"Even an old ox needs to eat and drink water!"
"I'm not going to say anything since the food is the worst since I came here. Even when I want to drink water or go to the toilet, I'm urged to do it. Is this a reformatory farm? Or are we prisoners?"
Once someone started talking, the others couldn't help but start complaining.
These workers are basically family members of factory employees. They thought that they could kill two birds with one stone by helping the factory rebuild the warehouse and getting paid. However, after working for a few days, they realized that they were being treated like animals.
They were not without emotions in their hearts, but Dong Bin said that this was a contribution to the factory, and if they did a good job, it would also bring honor to their families.
Dong Bin's words were so complicated that these naive people had no way of understanding him, so they just swallowed their anger and did it, but they still felt unfair in their hearts.
These people were already angry, and when they heard that Wei Chunming wanted them to work overtime, their anger completely exploded.
When Wei Chunming heard the three words "Zhou Paopi", his face changed immediately. Nowadays, who dares to be associated with such a reputation? If this gets out, he might be caught and beaten by those soldiers.
Seeing the crowd getting excited and everyone staring at him angrily, Wei Chunming dared not say anything about working overtime. He smiled guiltily, "Young man, I didn't ask you to skip meals and sleep. Don't talk nonsense. I mean you should make the most of your time. Of course, you can stop working if you are really tired. Everyone's situation is different."
But the workers did not buy it. They thought Wei Chunming was treating them like fools.
They work from day to night every day and have to make good use of their time. Apart from squeezing in time for eating and sleeping, where else can they squeeze out time?
Seeing that they were unmoved, Wei Chunming broke out in a cold sweat and added, "You have repaired the warehouse. I will definitely remember your contribution. The factory will give you bonuses and peanut oil."
With benefits ahead, the workers looked much better.
"Okay, with what Director Wei said, we are all relieved. But we can't do it like this in the future, otherwise we may not live to receive these benefits."
Wei Chunming naturally couldn't say anything against it at this time: "Of course, the health of the workers should be put first."
Dong Bin spat in his heart when he saw this. What a coward! He promised the benefits right away? Isn't this just losing both the wife and the army?
He knew that peanut oil was intended to be distributed as a welfare benefit to factory employees during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
If I had known this earlier, I wouldn’t have asked Wei Chunming to work overtime.
Wei Chunming didn't want to stay at the construction site any longer, so he said a few words to Dong Bin and left.
Dong Bin was left alone to face the workers' contempt.
But the rolling eyes was not the scariest thing. Dong Bin then discovered that he could no longer speak.
These people are not afraid of him now. As long as he asks them to speed up, the workers will say that Dong Bin wants to work them to death.
After a while, Dong Bin was helpless against these people.
Wei Chunming was filled with rage and walked towards his office, but he was stopped halfway.
"Director, something happened!"
Wei Chunming was furious and asked in a bad tone, "What happened? Why are you making such a fuss?"
"It was Director Wang from the First Department Store who sent someone to say that there was a problem with our brand-name shirts! There are many people waiting to cause trouble for us!"
"What?!"
