Chapter 114 That stinking old man, Zhou Bapi, he's made a fortune for himself, all he knows is how to exploit us!



They took the young man's phone, and the first thing they saw was six words: "High-paying truck driver!"

[Logistics Company] On a certain local platform, there are many job postings for drivers, with monthly salaries exceeding 10,000 yuan!

Living in a country with rapid economic development presents enormous challenges for middle-aged people, whether in terms of the entrepreneurial environment, employment environment, or living environment.

When they heard about the high salary of 10,000 yuan a month, these middle-aged men were tempted.

"Take a look, what are the requirements?"

Are there any educational requirements?

"I'm 40 this year, can I still go? Is there an age limit?"

The young man said, "As long as you have a driver's license to drive a truck, you can go for the interview. There are no educational requirements or age limits. The threshold is low. I saw some comments below that are practically saying you're going to pick up money with a sack!"

A driver's license seems to have become their shared ticket to the halls of wealth.

"Is it really that good?"

"Then we have to go!"

"Let's go now!" Some people couldn't wait any longer and packed their things to leave without even filling out the forms.

Zhang Qi called out anxiously, "Wait a minute, we're already here, let's go after the interview is over!"

One of his henchmen nodded in agreement: "Okay, since we won't sign a labor contract anyway, let's do the interview first."

"If things don't work out over there, we still have a way out here."

The young man hurriedly said, "The interview time conflicts with this location. Today is the last day, and the interviews will end in two hours! We need to hurry over there!"

But there were also people who usually argued with him and didn't take him, the team leader, seriously. They grabbed the young man and said, "Young man, lead the way, let's go now! It's only 3,000 here. Even if there's overtime pay or something, it's not specified how much. Who would want to do it!"

“I used to make 4,000, I don’t want to do a job that pays 3,000! I’m an experienced driver, I have plenty of experience, why can’t I earn 10,000!”

"Exactly! Why can't we earn this kind of money! Those young people drinking coffee in the office can easily make over ten thousand a month, so why can't we, the drivers who toil away on the road, make over ten thousand a month!"

"Young man, lead the way quickly!"

Zhang Qi roared, "Xue Bing, come back here! It's not too late to finish the interview first. Your mother urgently needs medical expenses. If you don't succeed, you'll lose everything!"

"Mind your own business! The team has disbanded, so stop acting like the boss and bossing us around. You're desperate to be the boss!"

"Exactly! The convoy has been disbanded, but they're still spouting bureaucratic jargon all the time. Who cares about them!"

"Zhang Qi, it's your business if you want to earn that 3,000, don't get in the way of us making money!"

"The convoy has disbanded. Everyone goes their own way, and we'll keep to ourselves!"

"Stop! Come back here!" Zhang Qi reached out to pull the people away, and a fight broke out in the struggle.

Han Fei, who was interviewing Chen Hai, heard the commotion outside and frowned: "What's going on outside?"

Chen Meilan went out to see what was happening, called the security guards to pull the people away, and then went back to report the situation.

"You mean, among the interviewees, someone suddenly discovered a high-paying job opening?"

"Yes, that's what they said."

"They're all outside, they haven't left?"

"Before they could leave, their former captain stopped them. It was because they wanted to leave, but their captain wouldn't let them, that the fight broke out."

Chen Hai whispered, "Zhang Qi is a righteous person. He just has a bad temper and isn't very good at social skills. He must have meant well to stop them."

"Do you know him?" Han Fei asked.

Chen Hai nodded and told Han Fei that he and Zhang Qi were both team leaders of their respective companies. He also told Han Fei that they became friends after a fight, because they had argued over cutting in line while waiting in a long queue at the mall to unload goods.

"I'll go out and take a look."

Chen Meilan was very worried about Han Fei going out in person, but she was relieved when she saw a square-faced bodyguard following closely beside Han Fei.

Stepping outside, Han Fei saw Zhang Qi, whose face was swollen from being punched, and turned to instruct, "Xiao Chen, take him to the infirmary for a checkup."

Han Fei conducted his interview at the factory. The factory already had a small medical clinic, which Han Fei improved after taking over the factory, and he also hired a recent college graduate from medical school.

Currently, the clinic has one senior doctor and one junior doctor. They have very leisurely lives, and few people from the factory go there.

Han Fei looked at the men with injuries on their faces. Apart from Zhang Qi, the others were all leaving, so he did not let Chen Meilan take them to the infirmary.

"Think it through. Once you leave here, you'll have no more chances."

"Pshaw, only 3,000 a month!"

"I used to earn 4,000 yuan a month!"

"If you offer a higher salary, we might consider it!"

"What are you even considering! It's 10,000 over there, and even if you add a little here to bring it up to 4,000, I still won't do it!"

"That's right, people strive for higher positions, and water flows downhill!"

"What's so great about it? If you don't have a chance, you don't have a chance. Do you think your company is the only one hiring truck drivers!"

"Brothers, let's go! Don't waste your breath on this old man!"

Chen Hai finally spoke up, saying, "The base salary is 3,000, but the meal allowance, vehicle allowance, and fruit allowance add up to 2,000! That doesn't even include overtime pay. We make 5,000 a month. Don't be confused! Once you leave this job, it'll be hard to find a truck driver job with such good pay. The current economic climate is bad; everyone outside is desperately trying to lower wages. It's impossible for them to give you 10,000. Don't be fooled!"

Upon hearing that it would cost 5,000 a month, some people stopped in their tracks.

Seeing his companion hesitate, someone angrily shouted, "5,000 is nothing? They're offering 10,000 over there!"

"Old man, unless you give us ten thousand a month, we're leaving!"

"Yes, if you can't give me ten thousand, then there's no point in talking!"

"You old bastards! You've made a fortune for yourselves, all you know how to do is exploit us!"

"We've worked ourselves to the bone, why can't we earn ten thousand!"

"All the money has been pocketed by you heartless bosses!"

They vented their anger at their former employer on Han Fei.

Their resentment towards the wealthy made them find Han Fei utterly displeasing.

Han Fei laughed in anger. Were these people out of their minds?

It's clearly a setup.

I was originally going to give them a heads-up to prevent them from being fooled, but now it seems I should just forget it; good advice is useless against these damned devils.

There were originally 53 people waiting for interviews, but the young man took 35 of them away at once.

Han Fei looked at the remaining 18 people and asked, "Why don't you come with us? You can earn ten thousand a month there."

A middle-aged man with a stubble sighed: "Boss, I'm getting old. If I were ten years younger, I might have the drive to earn ten thousand, but now I'm over forty, and I really don't have that drive anymore."

"I like working here, boss. You pay overtime for working more than eight hours, so I think the work here must be very easy. I won't be working until the early hours of the morning. Also, you hire hundreds of people at once. With more people, the work will definitely be spread out, and I can go home earlier to talk to my children."

“I used to leave early and come home late, and by the time my child had finished his homework and gone to bed, I rarely talked to him. Now that he's in high school, it's a crucial time for him. If I have a little free time, I can cook him a nice meal. He's never tasted his dad's cooking before!”

"Yes, me too. I used to drive a truck, leaving early and returning late, sometimes even on long trips. I basically had no time to communicate with my children, and our relationship became distant."

"Boss, you're hiring hundreds of people at once. Will our work really be easier from now on?"

"In the three years I've been driving trucks, I usually don't finish work until the early hours of the morning. How can I go to bed earlier?"

Looking into those hopeful eyes, Han Fei shook his head: "I can't go to bed too early."

The eighteen people were stunned, staring at Han Fei with a pitiful look of having been deceived and feeling deeply hurt.

Han Fei touched his nose and patiently explained, "You all look quite old. You can't drive forever, can you? After you turn fifty, your physical abilities will decline. Even if you want to drive big vehicles, I, as your boss, won't feel comfortable with that."

"Men can only retire at sixty, boss, I want to work until I'm sixty. Please don't fire me when I'm fifty, or I really won't be able to find a job!"

"Yes, boss, if you were fifty, you wouldn't need us anymore. We'd better look for work elsewhere!"

"With me, after you turn fifty, you'll step down from your driver positions and go to the warehouse or workshop. It'll depend on your own abilities. I won't fire you unless you make a serious mistake. At Hanheng Group, once you're hired, you won't be fired unless there's a serious mistake. At most, you'll be reassigned or have to write a self-criticism."

Will they deduct wages?

"Won't."

The men all breathed a sigh of relief.

“If you choose to go to the warehouse in the future, it’s a three-shift system, which is why I said you probably still won’t be able to go to bed early, because the night shift pays more, and I think you’ll prefer working the night shift.”

"If the night shift pay is higher, I'll definitely take the night shift!"

"Boss, if people can be transferred to other positions at fifty, can we go even if we don't have the skills?"

"When you are between 48 and 50 years old, you will need to choose your future job position, and someone will give you an hour of training every day."

"When you are officially transferred to a new position at age 50, your salary will not be reduced. If the salary of the new position is lower than that of a truck driver, it will be automatically increased to the same level. If the salary of the new position is higher than that of a truck driver, you will receive the higher salary directly."

"Can I choose the highest-paying job?" The man in his forties rubbed his hands together. He felt he was not far from 48, and in fact, he had long since given up on driving.

"Yes, you can choose your goal at 48. In the first year of learning, you can try different courses. If you can't keep up, don't force it. Wait until you are completely sure at 49, then study for a year. It's okay to start working at 50."

"If you're a good cook, you could consider joining the R&D department that develops new products. The salary there is currently the highest in the group." Han Fei remembered this guy saying that he wanted to cook for his son, so he seemed to be someone who was very confident in his cooking skills.

“I started cooking with my grandma when I was five years old. Before, when my family went to work in the fields, I was in charge of cooking for the whole family. Even though I later went out to work as a truck driver, I had ten years of cooking experience from the age of five to fifteen!”

"Alright, if you don't want to drive a big truck right now, you can try your cooking skills. They're hiring anyway." Han Fei asked Chen Meilan to make arrangements and took the person to another interview location.

Han Fei looked at the remaining 17 people: "Go and test drive the car. If there are no problems, I will use it."

With a wave of his hand, Han Fei had essentially secured the safety of these people.

At this moment, Zhang Qi, who had just returned after treating his wounds, asked in a low voice, "Boss, how much is the overtime pay...?"

Han Fei gave him a deep look: "If we recruit a hundred people, you will basically not be able to work overtime. If you do work overtime, I will have a chat with you."

Zhang Qi's face stiffened, and he lowered his head.

They used to laugh at their boss behind his back, saying he was stupid. But now it seems that the boss is not stupid at all; he's very shrewd!

It seems they're the fools; otherwise, how could they be treated like cattle and horses while others are big bosses?
