Chapter 121 0055. Gu Qingfang’s Worries
The brick factory is not far from the oat factory, and it can be reached by walking in half an hour with normal human foot strength.
At this moment, in the only office building of the brick factory, Gu Qingfang and big-headed Du Biao were sitting opposite each other at the desk.
"Tell me, why are you here?"
Gu Qingfang said calmly, still looking down at the project budget.
Du Biao rubbed his hands angrily and chuckled: "Sister Fang, I am here to thank you for giving me the union's relocation project. Secondly, I want to discuss the project issues with my sister."
Gu Qingfang waved her hand and said, "Thank you. I feel pity for the workers under you. If it were directed at you, I'd rather you starve to death."
Du Biao nodded frequently: "Yes, yes, Sister Fang is right. It was me, Du Biao, who was not a human before. Compared with Sister Fang's mind, I am just a little person without eggs."
So this time my brother and I came here specifically to discuss with my sister. Now that food prices are skyrocketing outside, the crazy labor unions and chambers of commerce have actually joined forces to lower the demolition project fees.
I calculated that if we worked according to the price they gave, each worker would receive at most 20,000 yuan in the end. What can you do with 20,000 yuan? Now a pound of rice costs almost a thousand dollars. We have been working together for a long time and only one of us can buy a bag of rice? "
Gu Qingfang pursed her lips and threw the oil pen on the table with her backhand: "Oh! What are you going to do?"
"I want to join forces with Sister Fang to negotiate with them. If we don't add money, we won't work for them.
As long as we agree, there will be no third company in the entire new city that can undertake their projects. "
Gu Qingfang was a little moved when she heard this. Indeed, the relocation price of the two major organizations this time was too high. No matter how she budgeted, the salary she received in the end was still pitiful.
The workers under him are still waiting to make a fortune this time and support their families. But right now, let alone supporting a family, even making ends meet is difficult.
"Okay, I agree to this matter. I will discuss it with my brothers today and give you an accurate answer tomorrow."
"Sure! I knew Sister Fang was courageous!"
There was a knock on the office door, and Gu Qingfang and Du Biao looked at the door in unison.
Seeing that the person coming was Chen Chong, Gu Qingfang's expression immediately turned from cloudy to clear.
"Ouch~ What kind of wind brings you here?"
Different from the past, what Gu Qingfang was wearing today was similar to the uniform of the Federal Army in World War II. I just modified the clothes a little bit, and they fit me perfectly.
She wore the originally ugly yellow military uniform with a unique charm, and her busty waist jumped as she stood up. The thick leather belt tightly outlined her waist that could be held by one hand.
Chen Chong smiled warmly and did not speak, but looked at the fat-faced man beside him.
Du Biao recognized this ancestor at a glance, and when he saw the other person looking at him, he felt a little scared.
"Nene, I'm not here to cause trouble. I'm talking to Sister Fang about the project. You guys talk first, I won't interrupt you anymore."
Du Biao was so nervous that he stuttered even when he spoke. He hurriedly picked up the nutritional supplements he had brought for Gu Qingfang, put them back in embarrassment halfway, then showed Chen Chong a smile that was uglier than crying, and fled out the door as fast as he could.
Gu Qingfang looked at Chen Chong with charming eyes the whole time, until Du Biao escaped from the building in embarrassment, the two of them laughed in unison.
"Giggle, look, you scared him."
Gu Qingfang covered her small mouth and laughed so hard that her branches trembled.
Chen Chong shook his head helplessly, spreading his hands with an innocent look on his face: "I didn't do anything."
Gu Qingfang rolled her eyes at him: "You have done nothing, which is more terrifying than anything you have done."
"Oh, by the way, what is he doing here?" Chen Chong said as he sat in Du Biao's original seat.
"What? Are you afraid that he will bully me? I can understand that you care about me, right?"
"Uh" Chen Chong was a little stuck by such a straightforward question.
Seeing this, Gu Qingfang smiled proudly and poured Chen Chong a cup of hot water:
"He's here to discuss with me the payment for the relocation project. Before, I thought that only the chamber of commerce would lower the price, but I didn't expect that workers' organizations like labor unions would also lower the price." As she spoke, Gu Qingfang frowned again. ,
"The prices in the city are changing every day. According to the current prices, the money given by the chamber of commerce is only enough for one person to buy a bag of 20 kilograms of rice.
This relocation project takes half a month to complete. Who can be willing to pay such a small salary? "
Holding the warm water cup in his hand, Chen Chong couldn't help but feel a little flustered in his heart. Unexpectedly, things have developed to this point. The unilateral changes in food have triggered chain reactions in all walks of life.
"Sister Fang, I have a fortune-making business here, would you like to do it?"
When she heard the word "get rich", Gu Qingfang's eyes immediately widened to the extreme.
"What kind of deal is it?"
Chen Chong said seriously: "I am planning to form a food-hunting team, but the manpower there is too short. I want to borrow some people from Sister Fang.
As for the salary, it will be 20% of the materials brought back. Of course, if I don’t catch anything, I will directly give Sister Fang a ton of grain as compensation. what do you think? "
As soon as she heard Chen Chong talk about looking for food, Gu Qingfang immediately lost interest:
"Alas! I may not be able to make the decision on this. It's not that I won't help, but many food-seeking teams have been disbanded now. It's so dangerous outside, I can't force the brothers below to help you.
But I can talk to them. If anyone is willing, I won’t stop them. What do you think? "
"I know this. Don't worry about it, Sister Fang. I'm just providing an opportunity. If anyone is willing, let them go to the oat factory to register with Zhao Xiaona tomorrow afternoon."
Chen Chong said and was about to stand up and leave. Just as he was about to turn around, he was stopped by Gu Qingfang:
"Let's go after eating here. I didn't thank you properly last time. Thanks to your five hundred thousand, we bought some food in advance."
Chen Chong smiled and nodded: "If Sister Fang has no food, just go to my place to find me. If you don't have money, you can just write an IOU."
Gu Qingfang stretched out her pink fist and punched Chen Chong gently. The action was more like flirting: "Huh! You are just hoping that my sister can't hold on here so you can swallow me whole, right?"
Chen Chong admitted undeniably: "The analysis is completely correct."
During lunch, Gu Qingfang mentioned the matter of looking for food in front of everyone. In the end, fifty-seven of the more than three hundred people present chose to join.
Without exception, those who join have families, and their children and wives are waiting at home for dinner. Even though they knew that going out to look for food would cost them their lives, they stepped forward without hesitation.
Seeing the uncertain expressions on these people's faces, Chen Chong glanced at Gu Qingfang secretly. Perhaps this woman did all this just to give these poor people something to eat.
