Chapter 1504: Chapter 1505: No Longer Scared or Intimidated!
Xiao Chen went to Jing Mountain Quarry.
At this ti, the Jing Mountain Quarry had already begun new renovations.
Originally, the workers were supposed to rest at ho, but everyone except those who were injured ca.
They felt embarrassed to take their salaries without working.
Such simple and honest workers they were.
If the quarry hadn’t owed them money, they probably wouldn’t have made such a fuss.
Who would want to complicate matters if there was another way?
Monk Zhang, feeling helpless, arranged for the workers to do what they could to expedite the renovation at Jing Mountain Quarry.
All theoretical renovations stem from basics.
The first task was the technical and safety upgrades of over a hundred quarries.
To ensure machinery could handle as much work as possible instead of people, because quarry work is truly dangerous.
However, after just one day of renovations, trouble arrived.
A group of fierce people showed up early this morning.
Leading them was Liu Erfa.
Liu Erfa ca to find trouble with Xiao Chen, but he didn’t expect not to even enter the quarry, being blocked outside.
The atmosphere was very tense, just a little spark and it would explode.
“Get lost, this place has nothing to do with you anymore, you’ve been fired.
From now on, the Jing Mountain Quarry is fully taken over by the Xinng Group.”
Monk Zhang said coldly to Liu Erfa.
Liu Erfa’s face was sowhat gloomy as he looked at the surrounding workers: “Are you rebelling? Don’t forget, this is Stone City.
Not Longcheng.
So what if Xinng Group is strong, when they co to Stone City, they must listen to us.
I advise you to quickly return to your posts and keep mining stones for , it’s your only way out, otherwise, you won’t only earn no money but lose your lives too.”
“We’re not afraid, stop threatening us, what you’ve done before was illegal, soone will deal with you.”
“Exactly, the wages can’t even match the minimum wage level of Sunset Prefecture, and yet you delay paynts.
Beating and injuring people easily, if soone like you becos the boss of Stone City, ordinary people would have no good days left!”
“Exactly, we will renegotiate contracts with Xinng Group, work with them instead of you.”
…
Voices sounded one after another, all reasonable and well-grounded, making Liu Erfa so angry that he wanted to hit soone.
All along, these hundred quarries had no so-called fairness, no so-called reason.
The people who ca here were pretty much like slaves, having no fixed salary, no safety guarantee, and even getting beaten, leading to death.
This was like the hard labor from ancient tis when people were exiled to the frontiers.
If the authorities knew, it would be quite a problem.
So they used the family mbers of these workers as threats, making them afraid to speak out.
Those who didn’t speak out would be grood into lackeys, working for them.
In turn, they would lure more people to follow them instead of opposing them.
But what’s happening today, do these people not care about their family’s safety anymore?
They actually dared to confront him.
“I tell you, this is Stone City, Stone City belongs to Boss Luo, the quarries belong to Boss Luo too.
So what if Xinng Group pushes us, we’d kill them all if necessary!”
Liu Erfa said coldly.
Today he brought a lot of experts, he never intended to fear Xinng Group.
If anyone from Xinng Group appeared, they’d kill them imdiately.
“You better think clearly, don’t you care about your family’s lives, do you want to continue living in Stone City?
If you do, then join us to drive Xinng Group away.
Otherwise, killing a few people is not a problem for us.”
“Stop scaring us, the chairman of Xinng Group has already promised to do his best to protect our families!”
“Moreover, an outsider is risking his life for us, going deep into the Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave, how could we back down ourselves?
We must support them.”
“That’s right, in the past, we were timid, easily scared into submission, but now we’re not afraid anymore.
Behind us is not only Xinng Group, but also the authorities.”
Hearing the crowd’s words, Liu Erfa’s expression beca even more sullen.
Businesses like his most feared getting involved in lawsuits.
If the authorities intervened, they indeed would be in trouble.
But what’s going on, these people weren’t so bold before, as soon as they heard their families were in danger, they beca as obedient as rabbits, no one dared to speak like this.
“Hmph, who said anything about getting the authorities involved? No fear in telling you, I’m not afraid, Boss Luo has great connections.
He can contact whoever he wants, get whoever he wants to help.
Finding the authorities won’t help you.”
Liu Erfa snorted coldly.
In the past, scaring them with such words ant nobody dared to jump anymore.
Actually, although Luo Shanhu had an extensive network, now Dragon Country has Yama Hall.
As long as Yama Hall intervenes, no connections could help.
If they really involved Yama Hall, big trouble would ensue.
Yet once again he was disappointed.
He thought today would be like the past, and these people would imdiately behave like obedient sheep.
But he didn’t expect it.
The workers looked as if injected with adrenaline, eyeing him furiously, with not a trace of fear, making Liu Erfa unsure of himself.
“Liu Erfa, stop bragging, Stone City is big, Dragon Country is big, how many people can Luo Shanhu buy? Can you buy Yama Hall?
We didn’t know before, so we let you bully us, but now, we’re not afraid, do your worse, we’ll imdiately find Yama Hall to deal with you.”
Liu Heitan said coldly.
“Heh, if there’s anything to discuss, at worst, wages will be settled monthly in the future, each person gets a 500 yuan raise, plus work injury compensation, how about that?”
Liu Erfa was indeed a smart man.
Seeing these people not easily cowed, he took a soft approach.
Unfortunately, if he had done this earlier, he might have succeeded.
But ever since the Jing Mountain Quarry was obtained by Xinng Group, they were told many reasons, told many things about Xinng Group.
They were no longer susceptible to such temptations.
“Liu Erfa, are you stupid, Xinng Group has promised us five social insurances and one housing fund, and, each person’s salary is at least five thousand yuan.
If we do well, there’s also a bonus.
More importantly, they will upgrade all engineering facilities here or even tear them down and rebuild, ensuring safety first.
Unlike you, where profit cos first.”
Liu Haiying laughed coldly: “You can go, you’re not needed here anymore, nor is this your place.”
“Rebelling, huh!”
Liu Erfa got angry: “I’ve already given ground, since you refuse to appreciate it, don’t bla for being ruthless.”
Having said that, he took out an iron rod.
Over a hundred people behind him all took out weapons, they were ready to act.
If negotiation failed, they would use force, that’s how they’ve always been, never bowing down.
