Chapter 268 Calming down the situation Driving a Rolls-Royce Cullinan, they stopped at the factory gate. The security personnel immediately came over to stop them. Parker and Director Lei Ke lowered the windows and greeted them, "We are one of us." When the security guard saw that it was an acquaintance, his expression softened and he greeted him, "Boss." He immediately waved to someone to open the barbed wire gate to let them in, and Zhang Ailun also drove into the yard. The workers who were lying in the tent outside, playing with their phones and eating, saw the luxury car driving into the factory area, and immediately shouted and jumped up. A group of people ran over with baseball bats and golf clubs, and surrounded the door. "Geneva! Pay me back!!" "Damn black-hearted boss! Give me back my hard-earned money! Why do you owe me wages?" "Fuck you! Pike! I want to shove my cell phone baseball bat up your ass! If you don't pay us and give us wages, I will do it!" "Pay back the money! Pay back the money! Pay back the money!!" A group of people surrounded the fence gate, banging on the barbed wire frantically, shouting and yelling, and it looked like they were about to rush in. The security personnel were scared and broke into a cold sweat.
They hesitated whether to wait until the situation was out of control and then turn around and run away, or to join the other team to fight against the black-hearted boss together! After all, they only earn 200 US dollars a day, what's the point of playing with their lives! Zhang Ailun looked at the workers gathered outside the fence gate. There were many young mothers holding their children, as well as middle-aged white people and elderly men, all of whom were low-level laborers. But the ones leading the group, holding melee weapons, were a few strong-looking white men, dressed neatly, and did not look like ordinary workers, but more like street thugs. "Those leading people should be sent by the trade union in Los Angeles, right?" Zhang Ailun asked. Lei Ke also nodded and said helplessly: "These people have paid their dues. When encountering such a thing, the union will immediately send someone to collect the debt. If you don't pay, they will even run to the community apartment where you live and dump garbage at the door, trying every means to force you to pay the debt. But they will also take 30% or even half of the money we finally pay to the workers!" "We do want to protect the interests of the workers, but we really don't have the money to pay their wages, and they won't listen. We would rather let the union members take the lead in making trouble than wait two more days," said Lei Ke. "You have to pay people for working for you. How much can you owe to 35 workers in total?" Zhang Ailun asked. "The company owes them one and a half months' salary for 15 people, which is almost $7000. The company has no money to pay for the project." Lei Ke took out the account book for Zhang Ailun to review. "I will pay them the $15, not a penny less! Tell them not to continue making trouble here, it will have a bad impact." Zhang Ailun took a look at the salary details in the account book, put it away, and asked, "Have the salaries of the senior executives in your department been settled?" "It's precisely because we were paid in advance that we have no money to pay them." Lei Ke said embarrassedly. "..." Zhang Ailun gave him a forced smile. Boss Parker got out of the car with a dark face, feeling humiliated by being stepped on the ground. He explained loudly, "Calm down! Please stay calm. I don't know who among you is a member of the guild who is leading the riot, but I can tell you very clearly that I have sold Parker to a very powerful new boss, and he will be responsible for paying all of your wages. I guarantee that not a penny will be less!" "We want to see the money now," the leading union member immediately shouted. "You want money? I'll give you money. Please don't cause trouble on my territory. Otherwise I will call 911 and call the police to expel and arrest you." Zhang Ailun got out of the car and looked at the group of people gathered outside. He said with a calm face, "I am the new boss of Parker Recycling Company. I can guarantee that I will not owe you any wages. I can even pay you in cash now, but I want to confirm in advance, is there anyone who still wants to continue working here?" The crowd fell silent. The union leader continued to stir up trouble, "You rich people always promise big things to your employees! Why don't you just give us money? If you do, we'll just leave, right?" "Shut up. On the surface you are standing up for the workers, but in fact you are not doing it for your own benefit. I can give them money, and even times the compensation, but can you not charge them any fees?" Zhang Ailun scolded him sternly. The union members were silent for a moment.
Zhang Ailun nodded slightly and looked at the silent workers. "No one wants to continue working at Parker? Very good. In fact, for a company like this that likes to delay the payment of employees' salaries, no matter what the reason is, if it were me, I would not want to continue working here. What's more, the boss of the company is carrying debts and selling off his property, thinking only of running away. The executives also paid their own wages in advance without considering the lives of the people at the bottom." "Mr. Jin..." Pike and Lei Ke were both a little embarrassed. Zhang Ailun waved his hand without even looking at him. Capitalists are not good people, including the chief leader, who often only thinks about himself. This is human nature, and there is nothing to say about the survival of the fittest. He opened the trunk directly, took out a handbag from it, unzipped it and revealed stacks of US dollar bills, most of which fell to the ground. The low-level working people had never seen so much cash before and were stunned for a moment, holding their breath as they looked at the cash in the purse. Zhang Ailun took out a short gun without changing his expression and put it on the trunk, which calmed everyone down. After all, a man who knows the caliber is a hero! "Guys, look at this Rolls-Royce behind me, and look at this bag of cash. I can tell you responsibly! I am very rich! I am a billionaire!! I don't care about this little money, and I can guarantee that I will not delay the salary of any of you." Zhang Ailun shouted and handed the money directly to Lei Ke next to him, asking him to be responsible for registering and distributing wages to people. "After you take this money, you can choose to continue working here, or voluntarily terminate the labor contract and receive times the salary compensation. Our employment relationship ends here. You don't need to pay the union's large commission. This money is my reward to you, not to the union. If you have any questions, you can call the Hamburg Foundation. The foundation will ask a lawyer to help you. Take the money and leave quickly." Many people thought about it and directly chose to take times the salary compensation, signed the labor termination contract, and then decisively packed up their tents and left. Seeing many people taking their money and leaving, Zhang Ailun did not forget to remind them, "Don't throw garbage at the factory gate, clean it up." "Don't worry, sir, we will definitely help you clean it up." The workers who had received the money were very easy to talk to. Without Zhang Ailun's excessive reminders, they began to clean up the place, and it soon became neat and tidy. Even the feces and urine on the roadside were shoveled away. However, there were also a few old employees who did not choose to covet the times salary, terminated their labor contracts, and were willing to continue working here. "Ma'am, why didn't you choose to leave Parker?" Zhang Ailun looked at the young mother holding the child and asked, "What's your name?" "My name is Elena. As you can see, sir, I am a single mother. I have children to support and my living expenses are very high. I cannot do without this job. In fact, I have also found many jobs before this, whether it is a waiter in a fast food restaurant or a cashier in a convenience store, none of them has a high salary and good benefits like Parker Company, and I am just a temporary worker of the company. The company only owes me $2200 in salary." The young single mother, Elena, looked to be no more than twenty years old, about the same age as Irene. She has blonde hair, blue eyes, a beautiful face, and an outstanding figure. She is holding a one-year-old child in her arms, which means she became a mother at the age of sixteen or seventeen. What a sin. But the leader is also accustomed to this. After all, there are many people here who get pregnant and give birth at the age of 14 or 16. "Very good, Elena, you are now a formal employee of Parker Company. To reward you, I decided to let you be responsible for the personnel management of this venue. The salary is increased to 4000-5000 US dollars per month." Zhang Ailun nodded. "Really? Sir? But I don't even have a high school diploma, and I haven't studied management at all..." Elena was a little incredulous and covered her mouth. "Any technology is learned, no one knows it from the beginning, I am very optimistic about you." Zhang Ailun smiled and encouraged her, "Besides, this job doesn't have any strict requirements for academic qualifications, you just need to be able to operate the machine and work hard." "Thank you so much, sir. I really don't know how to repay you." Elena's eyes turned red with excitement and she hugged the chief. Zhang Ailun also patted her shoulder, smelled a milky fragrance, and pinched the child's cute little face. "What's the name of this child?" "His name is Alan, sir." Elena replied. "...Really? That's a nice name." Zhang Ailun's mouth twitched, and he stretched out his hand to tease him. "Hey, little Ailun, hello." The one-year-old child didn't understand anything, so he turned his head and lay in his mother's arms, trying to get breast milk. Elena could only hold him and walk to the side to feed little Alan. This child is so white... No. This mother is so cute. Zhang Ailun then arranged the work for the next employee and also asked him why he chose to stay. Without exception, it was because Parker's welfare benefits were quite good. This also made Parker's boss, who was almost hung on the street lamp, feel relieved. He really thought he was a profiteer capitalist.
After dealing with these things, Zhang Ailun also walked into the factory to look at the garbage sorting equipment. The factory covers a large area. These specialized facilities and assembly lines can replace the work of hundreds of people. Moreover, these are the equipment that Parker's boss purchased not long ago last year. Except for the need to outsource maintenance fees every month, there is no problem using them for 17 or 18 years. After visiting the infrastructure, not long after, the Beggar Gang disciples also brought people to report. Zhang Ailun went out to see the dozen people who had arrived, and immediately called Lei Ke and Elena, introducing them: "This is Supervisor Lei Ke, and the site manager Elena. You can learn from them and get familiar with the work process. If anyone in the team is willing to work here, they can be selected and admitted. The monthly salary will not be less than 4000 US dollars, and there are dividends and full attendance bonuses." "Hello." Lei Ke hurriedly introduced himself and lowered his posture. After all, these were all Mr. Jin's street team. "Boss, don't worry, we will definitely get it done." The Beggar Gang disciple readily agreed. After dealing with the company's affairs, Boss Parker said goodbye to the chief and chose to leave. Zhang Ailun also handed the matters here over to Lei Ke to handle and drove away from the suburbs. On the way back to the city, I received an anonymous call, but under the label of Terminator , it turned out to be a signal source from an overseas island. Zhang Allen looked at the map and found that this was the private island of collector Madison. Just choose to connect. "Hello, is this Mr. Jin?" A magnetic female voice came from the other end of the phone. "It's me, who are you?" Zhang Ailun asked puzzledly. "Hello, Mr. Jin, I am Mr. Madison's personal butler and life assistant. I believe you have also heard of Mr. Madison's name. We heard that you recently auctioned a Spanish pirate horn coin at the whale auction in Los Angeles, right?" The female assistant said in a sweet voice. This amount of sugar really makes people feel numb all over. It is worthy of being the choice of the rich. "That's right." Zhang Ailun replied. "Sir, it just so happens that Mr. Madison himself is also very interested in this collection. I wonder if you are interested in transferring it?" The female assistant stated her purpose directly. Zhang Ailun didn't expect that before he took the initiative to contact the other party and was still thinking about how to sell the collection, the other party took the initiative to come to him and express his intention to buy. "I want to ask, where did you get my contact information?" Zhang Ailun asked. "This is very simple. We have been in contact with the chairmen of several auction houses in Los Angeles and are quite familiar with them. It was from them that we learned that a horn coin was sold at the Whale Auction. We have also asked for your registered private phone number. I am sorry to bother you so rashly." The female assistant said politely. They also learned about the identity and background of the chief from the chairman of the Whale Auction. He was a billionaire and was not short of money. In fact, they were not sure if they could buy the coins, so they could only try to communicate. "So that's it." Zhang Ailun hesitated for a moment and said with difficulty: "Although this Spanish coin is not worth much, I like it very much. It suits my taste very well." "Mr. Jin, Mr. Madison has collected all 12 dimes, and only a few Spanish coins are missing. He doesn't have many hobbies in his life, and antiques and collectibles are his only pursuits in this life. If you are willing to buy them, Mr. Madison is willing to pay a high price." said the female assistant. "Never mind the high price. I also admire Mr. Madison very much. If you really want it, I can consider selling this dime to Mr. Madison at the original price. I'll just consider it as making friends." Zhang Allen replied. "That's great, Mr. Jin, thank you very much for your generosity! Mr. Madison is now receiving one-on-one treatment and diagnosis from a private doctor, so it is not convenient for him to communicate with you directly. We apologize for the inconvenience, but he has also made it clear that he wants to invite you to visit his private island. I wonder when you will have time?" the female assistant said happily. "I have a lot of personal stuff to deal with today, so let's add a contact number. I'll let you know when I have time." Zhang Allen said: "Give my regards to Mr. Madison and hope he is in good health."
Although he is already an old man in his sixties or seventies, he has privately tried to prolong his life, so it is estimated that living to be a hundred years old is not a problem. "I will. Goodbye, sir." After hanging up the phone, the female assistant also sent a text message. Zhang Ailun added the contact information of the social software. Soon, the other party sent a very formal greeting, but Zhang Ailun basically just glanced at it and didn't read it. But unexpectedly, the female assistant sent another private ID right after that. Zhang Ailun tried to click on it and saw, wow, all kinds of cool welfare photos! Female assistant: Sir, this is my personal ID. :) It can be seen that she is very eager to have an in-depth exchange with the chief leader, and she does not hide it at all. The leader has to criticize you a few words. Are you using your power for personal gain? Having a big boss in Madison isn’t enough, you’re also thinking about developing new customers offline? I decisively gave a like to her welfare photos. (End of this chapter)
