"Young man, your parents had an accident at work, and the factory should be responsible for you.
If you encounter any difficulties in your life in the future, you can seek help from the factory."
Driver Zhao Hu is a veteran with a strong sense of justice who cannot bear to see the sufferings of the world.
"Thank you, Master. May I know your name?"
Yang Baiyi was right. This driver had no relatives or friends with them, but he was willing to tell them so much. He must be a righteous person.
"My name is Zhao Hu, and everyone in the factory calls me Lao Zhao."
Zhao Hu answered cheerfully.
Soon, the jeep drove into the steel plant, passed through the tall factory buildings, and stopped in front of a row of red brick houses.
"Here we are. I'll take you to see the leader."
Zhao Hu got out of the car, opened the door and let Yang Baiyi and Yang Xiaoxiao get out.
The three of them came to an office with a sign that read "factory director" on the door.
"Director Sun, Yang Bingrong and Xiao Zhiqing's two children are coming over."
The office door was open, and a middle-aged man with a somewhat tired look was sitting there.
"Come in."
Director Sun came back to his senses from his thoughts and greeted him.
"Hurry and sit down."
Director Sun gestured for the two to sit on the sofa, and he sat opposite Yang Baiyi and his sister.
"What are your names?"
Director Sun asked kindly.
"Director Sun, my name is Yang Baiyi, and this is my sister Yang Xiaoxiao."
Yang Baiyi replied calmly.
"Why did Zhao Hu tell you on the way here today?
First of all, on behalf of Luoshui Steel Plant, I would like to express my deepest condolences and apologies to you.
Due to improper operation, your parents lost their precious lives.
This is our management failure and our steel plant should bear full responsibility for this accident.
I know that no matter what I say, it cannot make up for the trauma in your hearts.
But the accident has already happened and everything is irreversible. The factory can only compensate you as much as possible.
First of all, the factory will reserve your parents' jobs for you and your siblings, and when you are old enough, you can take their places directly.
Another issue is funeral expenses and compensation, which will definitely be paid in full.
The funeral expenses and compensation for your parents total six thousand yuan.
Do you have any other requests? If so, please let us know and the factory will help you solve them as appropriate."
Director Sun looked sad, and it was obvious that he had been under a lot of pressure these days.
Since its establishment, Luoshui Steel Plant has never experienced such a major accident. A total of six workers, including Yang Bingrong and his wife, died in the accident.
The criticism from the leaders, the unrest among the employees, the doubts from the society and the tears from the families made Director Sun feel almost breathless.
“We don’t have any other requirements, the factory has done a good enough job.
After my parents got into the accident, the factory immediately comforted my sister and me and helped with my parents' funeral arrangements. We all saw it.
For example, today, you don't have to show up in person. All the standards for judging work-related injuries must be based on rules, and the steel plant can simply assign a staff member to deal with us.
However, Director Sun still received us in person, which made me see the sincerity of the steel plant and Director Sun's responsibility.
No one wants to see such a big accident happen.
My parents have always been serious and hardworking in their work, and have always contributed their strength to the development of the country.
They are my role models and I am proud to have such parents.”
Yang Baiyi's emotions are very stable, which doesn't mean that he has no emotions because his soul has been replaced.
But the thing has already happened, and it cannot be undone no matter what.
Since we cannot change the established facts, we must learn to accept them.
"Bai Yi, I didn't expect your awareness to be so high. It really impressed me.
It can be seen that Comrade Yang Bingkun and Comrade Xiao Zhiqing’s education is very successful. I believe that you will become a pillar of the country in the future.
I look forward to the day when you graduate from high school and start working at the steel mill."
Yang Baiyi's statement made Director Sun feel relieved.
Compared with the criticism from the leaders, Director Sun is more afraid of the tears of the family members.
That would make him fall into deep self-blame.
Just like yesterday, a group of people claiming to be Yang Bingkun’s parents and brothers were crying and making a lot of noise in the factory, creating a big chaos.
The steel plant could only patiently appease them and dared not offend them in the slightest, because they were the family members of the deceased!
“Yesterday, your grandparents came and wanted to collect the compensation from your parents.
Because you and your sister were not present, I refused their request, and they made a big scene.
Bai Yi, can you tell me why you didn't come together yesterday?"
Director Sun asked.
“Director Sun, they didn’t even inform us and wanted to seize my parents’ compensation.
Ever since my parents got into trouble, they haven't shown us any concern, but have been intent on seizing our family's property.
Not only the compensation, but also the small courtyard where we live and my parents’ jobs, they want to take over.”
Yang Baiyi had no idea that family disgrace should not be made public. Since they could do it, Yang Baiyi didn't mind helping them publicize it.
"It's outrageous that there are such crazy people in the world.
Baiyi, if they come to you to cause trouble again, you must not compromise.
Whether it's compensation or your parents' jobs, they are the foundation of your future livelihood, so don't give them to them lightly."
Director Sun instructed Yang Baiyi.
After all, this is someone else's family affair, and outsiders can only provide advice.
"Well, I won't."
Director Sun chatted with Yang Baiyi for a few more words, then took him to the finance department to sign and receive 6,000 yuan in compensation. Finally, he arranged for Zhao Hu to take them back.
"Master Zhao, can I trouble you with something?"
On the way back, Yang Baiyi asked tentatively.
"Bai Yi, just tell me what you want. I will never refuse to help you if I can."
Zhao Hu said generously while driving the car attentively.
"Master Zhao, I'm planning to sell my parents' jobs. Can you help me find the right person?"
“Yang Baiyi stated his purpose.
"Why? Are you afraid that your grandparents will come and cause trouble with you again?
Now that your parents are gone, the jobs should be inherited by you brothers and sisters.
If they make trouble again, you can seek help from the street office or call the police directly.
You must not sell your job. What will you do after you graduate?
Now that we can’t take the college entrance examination, a large number of graduates pour into the society every year. Do you know how scarce jobs are?
If you sell your job now and can't find a job after you graduate, you'll be forced to go to the countryside according to regulations."
Zhao Hu analyzed the pros and cons for Yang Baiyi, hoping to dissuade him from selling his job.
