Just as the shovel was about to fall heavily on Jian Zhizhen's head, the next instant, a hand suddenly appeared and pushed him away!
Hearing the sound, Jian Zhizhen suddenly came to her senses, looked at the man with a puzzled expression, and then looked at Qin Yubai with a questioning look.
Qin Yubai also looked at the man, his eyes slightly lowered, his indifferent gaze carrying a cold ruthlessness.
He grasped Jian Zhizhen's wrist, pulled her up, looked her over, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she was not injured anywhere.
Then he turned around and questioned the man: "Who sent you?"
His first suspicion was that there was a mole within the production team.
Because Jian Zhizhen really had no dealings with people in this world.
Many viewers are also speculating, and the comments section is full of various conspiracy theories and analyses.
The man tried to get up from the ground, but after only a little while, he sat back down with a pained expression.
He clutched his waist, his face covered in cold sweat from the pain, and glared at the two of them with resentment.
“Watering the vegetables was originally the job of our team. Now your invented machine can replace us, and we can only do lower-paying manual labor. But I injured my back and can't do anything else! You've driven me to this point!”
Jian Zhizhen frowned slightly: "But this machine only has a reminder function. It will provide scientific advice on cultivating vegetables. Watering, fertilizing, and pest control still need to be done manually by you or by operating the machine."
The man's eyes reddened, and his voice trembled: "Yes, but before, we needed people to analyze and check, but now you've done so much work with just one machine. All that's left is for one or two people to do. I'm unfortunate, I've been... replaced by you!"
Qin Yubai interrupted him slowly and deliberately: "Then you should blame yourself. It's your own fault for being incompetent."
"..." The man was angry, but he couldn't say anything.
He also knew that it was his own fault.
Because I had previously suffered a back injury at work, while everyone else on the team was healthy.
So the boss fired him first.
The reason he came to get rid of Jian Zhizhen was actually at the instigation of his coworkers.
His coworkers said that these two people can now invent this machine to eliminate him, and they will invent other machines to eliminate even more people in the future.
So as long as he gets rid of these two people, they will raise money to help him through the crisis and support him until he finds a new job in another factory.
Then they would all testify for him so that he could escape punishment.
Qin Yubai no longer wanted to waste any more words with him.
He took Jian Zhizhen's hand and tried to leave to find the factory's security guards and explain that these people intended to harm someone.
But when he turned around, he found a lot of men standing behind him.
They were all carrying weapons.
Qin Yubai immediately shielded Jian Zhizhen behind him, his brows furrowing slightly: "Don't you have any laws here? You resort to force when you can't solve the problem?"
The men roared:
"No sin is greater than being broke!"
"Hmph, the best don't resort to violence easily, so what are we afraid of?"
"If you replace all our jobs, we'll still die!"
Qin Yubai: "..." He couldn't reason with these people anymore.
Jian Zhizhen assessed the possibility of her and Qin Yubai escaping...
They have weapons and outnumber us, so a head-on confrontation wouldn't be worthwhile.
It would be best to resolve this peacefully.
She peeked out from behind Qin Yubai, trying to speak calmly.
“Have you ever thought that you could actually enjoy days off? In such a large area, there should be several employees working in shifts, working eight hours a day, instead of one person bearing the entire burden?”
As she spoke, she turned back to look at the man on the ground who couldn't get up due to back pain, and said gently, "I think the reason you don't seek treatment for your back injury is because you don't have the money, right? Have you ever thought that your jobs should provide you with insurance? If you have a back injury, you can reduce your expenses through medical insurance."
"Now that another person has appeared and taken your jobs, you're trying to kill people to solve the problem... Even without us, there will be young people to replace you! How many can you kill?"
"You can choose not to do it on your own. As long as everyone unites and refuses to do it, the capitalists won't be able to control you!"
To her surprise, the men laughed as soon as she finished speaking, their laughter filled with mockery.
They all refuted her in unison:
"You only earn more for yourself and don't want me to have a good life, that's why you're trying to persuade us to quit!"
"Eight hours a day? What a dream! Sooner or later you'll be snatched up by high society and become their plaything! You might not even survive!"
"Protection? Haha, that's hilarious! The factory is already providing food and income, why would they need to provide security?"
"If you're really that high-minded, you should be the first to quit, and give me the job opportunity!"
In the eyes of these people, the Labor Law, the five social insurances and one housing fund, social welfare protection... all seem like a fantasy.
Viewers watching the live stream were so amused they flooded the chat with "hahaha" comments.
Hahaha, these people are hilarious, they're so stupid.
[This person seems completely unsophisticated.]
But many people can relate to this:
Is it funny?
I don't find it funny. Some people think they're stupid, but I feel like I'm looking in a mirror.
[Looking in the mirror adds one.]
From elementary school onwards, in addition to attending school, I also had to attend tutoring classes every day, studying for sixteen hours a day. By the age of twelve, I had developed myopia of 800 degrees.
Yes, some people might say, "I don't need to be so competitive." But is that what I want? Our city's high schools operate on a probability system; only the top 50% of students in the city get in, meaning that even a single point can affect tens of thousands of students.
