The reporter hadn't expected the foreman to ask this question. He hesitated for a moment and said, "Why are you asking so many questions?"
"I'm quite curious. I haven't had much education, but when I was young, I heard people say that journalists are the most fair and just people. But it seems that you are different from the journalists I know. Honestly, the Ye Group treats us workers very well. We left our hometowns to work here just to make money. Unlike those unscrupulous bosses who don't pay us, the Ye Group pays us on time every month."
"If there's something going on at home or I need leave, they'll readily approve it. We get red envelopes during festivals, and cake coupons on birthdays. But you don't know, a fellow villager of mine worked in a mold factory. A machine broke down, and his right arm was strangled. The boss refused to compensate me and even threatened to kill me if I dared to go to the Labor Bureau to complain."
"Unlike the experiences of the people I know, our Ye Group treats its employees very well. Why don't you report it well?"
When the reporter heard what the foreman said, he was silent for a while.
He suddenly remembered that when he was in college, he had also aspired to be a journalist with an overflowing sense of integrity. He didn't know why he had embarked on this path today.
"Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. Just take the money and do what you should do."
After the reporter left, the man returned to the ward carrying a bag of money.
The ward was full of people from their factory. They were all discussing how much money it would cost every day since they had to stay in the hospital every day and the factory had suffered such a huge loss.
After discussing the factory, I wondered when we could resume work.
The man sat silently on the hospital bed and took a deep breath, but in the end, greed overcame his conscience.
He knew that if he did this, it might affect his fellow countrymen from the same province and make it difficult for them to find jobs in Shenhai City.
The man thought about it and wrote a letter using his elementary school education.
He handed the letter to the manager, who was stunned when he saw it.
He looked at the man, as if to confirm whether what the man said was true, and the man nodded.
The manager said, "Then you continue to stay in the ward, and we will take care of the rest."
Before lunch, the reporter came and handed a packet of medicine to the foreman, saying, "Watch the time and take these medicines."
The foreman asked in surprise, "Do you still need to take medicine?"
"It can't kill people. Otherwise, do you think 500,000 is so easy to get?"
The foreman said, "That won't work. This is a different price. I thought you were just asking me to pretend, but you didn't say you wanted to eat it. This is something you're supposed to eat. What if it causes permanent damage?"
The reporter said with a cold face: "What's wrong with you? You're talking about this after receiving the money?"
"When I asked for the money, you only asked me to cooperate, but you didn't tell me to take poison! You said this stuff wouldn't kill me, but who knows? I'm going to die, who will spend the 500,000 yuan?" The foreman also started to make unreasonable demands, and even said loudly: "How about this, either you increase the price? Or I will yell, and you should know that all the workers in this ward are my colleagues. If I really yell, you can forget about leaving this building!"
The reporter cursed, "It's true that poverty and hardship breed unruly people! How much more do you want to add?"
