Xiang Lili, who thought it was none of her business, didn't expect that it was actually her business!
The next day, Monday, all the new employees started their jobs.
The number of staff has been doubled this time. Even though people were transferred from the match factory when the methane plant opened, now every old employee has to bring in at least one new employee.
For some outstanding people, it is normal to have two new people around them.
Xiang Lili was leading two newcomers. Although she was only 16 years old and had a childish face, her hands were very steady when operating the chemical instruments, and she was very efficient in generating gas.
The two newcomers also worked very hard. They took out a small notebook and recorded the master's techniques, even remembering some small movements clearly.
As a master, Xiang Lili was quite satisfied.
She was smiling as she watched her apprentice writing furiously on a notebook, then she picked up her water cup to take a sip of water and take a break.
Then I heard someone calling out at the door: "Xiang Lili, is Xiang Lili here?"
Xiang Lili put down the water cup and replied with a frown: "Yes, I'm here. Who's looking for me?"
"Come out first. Take a look at this new guy. Is he your cousin?"
Xiang Lili probably guessed who it was, and the corner of her mouth twitched. Oh my god, I didn't mean to provoke this. He called me by name, and there was nothing I could do.
Under the gaze of her colleagues, she quickly walked to the door, closed it, and then asked, "What's going on?"
The man who came was a gay man, about the same age as Zhang Mingyu. His glasses were broken, the corner of his mouth was bruised, and there were footprints on his body. He looked extremely embarrassed.
"Is this your cousin Zhang Mingyu? Look at what I did to him! Pay him!"
His face was covered in flowers and his body was a mess, like a dye factory full of various pigments.
His hand was still holding Zhang Mingyu's collar.
Zhang Mingyu was not in much better condition. His left eye had become a panda eye, and there was a slap mark on the right side of his cheek. At this moment, he was still fighting with a male comrade in footwork.
Xiang Lili felt a little dizzy. Wow, it hasn't even been an hour since we started working, and they're already fighting so fiercely?
"What's going on between you two? How did you start fighting?"
The two of them pushed and shoved each other while trying to piece together the whole story for Xiang Lili.
"I asked this guy, 'You're the one tied for 40th place, is your name Hu Bing or Zhang Mingyu?' And he just beat me up."
The man with glasses is Zhang Mingyu's instructor, who taught him the gas compression operation procedures. He was not present at the scene yesterday, but I only heard that they originally wanted to recruit 40 people, but finally admitted 41 people.
One of them had some relationship with the leader. He was afraid of offending people, so he asked Zhang Mingyu's name out of curiosity.
Is there anything wrong with asking for a name?
Zhang Mingyu started fighting without saying a word and broke the man's glasses with one punch. The man with glasses was not very old and could not control his anger, so he raised his fist to fight back and the two of them started fighting.
By the time the guards came over and pulled the people apart, the scene was in chaos.
Of course, colleagues also tried to help separate them, but unfortunately the two hot-blooded young men got carried away and kept punching each other. Who could stop them if they went in?
It was the retired guards who came over and subdued the two men, and escorted them to find their parents. They were now following behind them with a fierce look in their eyes.
A well-mannered girl ran over and said, "It's your business to compensate each other for the losses incurred in the fight. Comrade Xiang, the two of them damaged three machines. The technicians are currently repairing them. We'll assess the damage when the time comes."
She works in the Finance Department, in charge of asset accounting, and is quite familiar to Xiang Lili.
What's the big deal about compensation for a fight? Both of them didn't lose any limbs, at most they were just given a few verbal warnings, but the three methane plant machines were in danger!
It's fine if it's fixed, but if it's broken, you're doomed.
When Xiang Lili heard the news, her head was buzzing. Although she didn't know the exact price, she was afraid that these machines were brand new and imported from the Soviet Union.
She didn't dare to act on her own, so she could only ask an acquaintance to call her mother over.
An hour later, a group of people sat in the conference room.
The parents of the two parties involved in the fight were called to the hospital. Now they are sitting on separate sides, but they are still not behaving themselves.
The guards were still sitting beside them, holding them down on the left and right to prevent the two from attacking.
After all, there is a criminal record. What if these two guys get too excited and start fighting again?
If he could kill with his eyes, Zhang Jidi, who came in last, would have wanted to cut his nephew into pieces.
Yesterday he was showing off in front of the plant manager, today he's fighting with his trainer, and tomorrow he's going to shit on the methane plant?!
"Zhang Mingyu's parents are here? Everyone's here, let's take a look at the damage report."
The head of the Finance Department is a female comrade with a cold and serious expression, obvious nasolabial folds on her face, and three vertical lines between her eyebrows. At first glance, she looks like a class teacher.
She gave each of the two families' parents a copy of photos of the three machines in their dire condition. "These three L-model compressors were donated by the Soviet Union. The factory price was RMB 10,000 each. We've hired Soviet experts to repair them, but they haven't come back with any results yet."
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
Sixteen thousand for one unit, such a niche word.
No kidding, a regular worker with a monthly salary of just over 20 years would have to work for 60 years without eating or drinking to afford the cost of one machine.
One machine lasts a lifetime!
The parents of both sides looked at the black and white photos with trembling hands. Seeing the tragic scenes on them, there is no greater sorrow than heartbreak.
The parent of the man with glasses slapped him hard: "You damn kid, do you know where you are fighting? You're going to die!"
He was extremely angry. Forty-eight thousand!
The head of the finance department tapped the table with his fingers. "Lu Dong's parents, please don't educate your child in the factory. We are only notifying you now to negotiate compensation."
The implication is that the self-torture tactic doesn't work.
Beating children is to make the children who have caused trouble look more pitiful, so that the people who want compensation will naturally let them go lightly because the parents have taught them a lesson.
But this time, it was an important piece of machinery in the factory. He thought he could evade responsibility by just giving it a couple of slaps? Dream on!
After hearing the price, Lu Dong and Zhang Mingyu became completely obedient.
If the machine breaks down, the financial compensation will be nearly 50,000 yuan, which will at least put them in jail for a dozen years.
Zhang Mingyu lowered his eyelids and whispered, "Who knew it was so expensive? You didn't protect it well..."
He thought it was just like the wooden spinning machines in his mother's textile factory. Smashing a few of them would only cost him a few dozen dollars, as if he had smashed something before.
Zhang Mingyu had some self-awareness. He felt insecure when his mother was not around, so the noise he made was so low that almost no one present could hear it.
The head of the finance department continued, "The best outcome is that the three machines aren't seriously damaged. The Soviet expert's repair fee is 80 yuan a day, plus the cost of parts. You two will split the cost."
In other words, they were lucky. Both families paid more than 40 yuan each, and the matter was settled.
"But if unfortunately all three break down, you two will have to pay for the machines. Even if the money isn't enough, you have to find a way to make up the difference!"
I'm unlucky. Both families owe 24,000 yuan each. If I can't afford the compensation, I will have to go to jail.
The two parents looked at each other with bitter expressions.
Oh my God, the troublemaker at home has caused a big mess.
