Chapter 362: Excited Chinese Workers

Looking at the file in his hand, Felton showed a weird smile on his face. He really couldn't imagine what made Harris, a stupid and varied guy, make the decision to raise his salary.

Of course, this matter has little to do with Felton. Perhaps the workers who have raised their wages will really work honestly, and this will reduce their burden.

While Felton was thinking, the door of his office was opened, and several supervisors walked in from the door, headed by the tall and magnificent Campbell.

Brother "I heard that Harris has issued a new order for the fat pig?" As soon as he entered the door, Campbell buzzed. Obviously, he had learned of the new document from elsewhere.

Felton's expression remained unchanged, and he handed the document to Campbell, and responded: "That's it, the document is here. Since you are here, let's promulgate this order later, don't delay."

Campbell took the file, glanced at it, and frowned. He doesn't like thinking or reading, not to mention so many words and so many nonsense documents. So he took the paper to a supervisor behind him and motioned him to read it.

The supervisor naturally didn't dare to say anything more, and read the sound after receiving the file. But the more he reads down, the weirder his face becomes, until he read "When the wages of Chinese workers will be raised to fifty dollars a month, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Raise wages? What is Harris thinking? ! With so much money for those Chinese workers, why is our salary still so small!"

Hearing this, Felton was visibly stunned. He didn't expect that his colleagues were concerned about why he didn't raise his salary.

Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Felton to speak, Campbell frowned, grabbed the documents in his colleague's hands, scanned a few times, and then turned around and slapped Felton's desk with a slap, and said very dissatisfied. One sentence: "Brother, why! Why can those Chinese workers have such a high salary!"

Felton had a headache all of a sudden. He knows that his group of colleagues has always been dissatisfied with the person in charge, and the relationship between the two parties has been maintained in a delicate balance that you do not affect me, and I do not provoke you.

After thinking about it, Felton could only say: "This order should be issued by the new stewards, and Harris is only executing it. You know, the new stewards seem to care very much. The living conditions of these workers."

When Campbell heard this, he immediately shifted his target, gritted his teeth and said, "It's those guys...

"But they are all leaders at a higher level than Harris. Don't provoke them." Felton rubbed his temples and continued, "Okay, go ahead and issue the order."

Under Felton’s explanation, Campbell turned away reluctantly, and kept muttering, "So what, you have to lie down if you give him a bullet."

Felton breathed a sigh of relief when Campbell closed the door and shook his head. At this time, he remembered his worries at the meeting last night, and couldn't help sighing: "Now the reputation of those guys will increase again."

Compared with the shock and dissatisfaction of the supervisory group after learning of this order, when the news of the wage increase spread among the workers, everyone had only one reaction: first they couldn't believe it, and then they were ecstatic.

After his father passed away, Wang Tiezhu became taciturn. On weekdays, he just worked hard to complete his work, and he rarely cared about other things. But unfortunately, his friends always come to disturb his peaceful life.

On this day, Wang Tiezhu is moving some building materials onto his horse. The words of Sister Li I heard on the construction site before still made Wang Tiezhu very impressed. Although their working hours are now reduced to eight hours, his work efficiency has increased a lot.

Not only because he had a good night's sleep after a long absence last night, but also because he felt that he had to work hard for those leaders.

At this moment, Er Niu's familiar voice came from behind him: "Tie Zhu Tie Zhu, guess what news I just heard!"

There was excitement in Er Niu's voice, which made Wang Tiezhu put down his work and turned his head to look at his friend.

But he did not answer. After all, at this time, it is the best choice for Er Niu to tell the news he heard. Wang Tiezhu would not do such a thing if he wasted time guessing about things that were completely unclear.

Seeing Wang Tiezhu just looking at him quietly, without saying a word, Er Niu curled his lips in dissatisfaction, but his dissatisfaction was diluted by excitement in the next second. He said excitedly: "You can never guess that after cutting the working hours yesterday, today, we have raised wages!

rise salary?

Wang Tiezhu was stunned for a moment, and then there was an expression of ecstasy on his face. He couldn't help asking, "Is what you said is true?"

Seeing that Wang Tiezhu's calm face finally had more color, Er Niu also smiled and said, "There can be fakes. The guys on the construction site who understand English have already asked the supervisors. This is true. !"

Although he was affirmed by Erniu, Wang Tiezhu still couldn't believe it. He walked in front of Erniu, grabbed his shoulder, and asked, "How much has the salary increased?"

Er Niu stretched out five fingers and smiled pretendingly.

Wang Tiezhu frowned, and asked with some uncertainty: "An increase of five yuan?"

Er Niu shook his head and said loudly, "It has become fifty yuan! Fifty yuan a month!"

The number five,5974 once again made Wang Tiezhu stunned. Fifty, this is the treatment that more than 10,000 Chinese workers did not get for a week during the last strike. Today, it suddenly fell on him?

Suddenly, Wang Tiezhu seemed to remember something, and asked again: "Who brought up this salary increase?

Wang Tiezhu’s question made Er Niu shrugged and said, “No one knows about this. But do you think that those who were in charge of the work on the construction site will give us processing money for no reason?”

Wang Tiezhu nodded, it could only be the newcomers.

This can't help but make Wang Tiezhu have a huge affection for the several stewards who came suddenly. You must know that wages and working hours are completely different things. The reduction in working hours only allows people like Wang Tiezhu to sleep well. In fact, even if they work ten hours a day, they will not die.

But the salary is completely different. Every extra dollar you earn means that you can live an extra day in this strange land. You can guarantee more time to find your next job.

You know, the railway here will be completed in a few months. When the time comes, the over 10,000 Chinese workers will have to make a living elsewhere. At this time, this increase of more than ten yuan per month may allow a large number of people to continue to survive!
