"Now you work for me!"
The new minister from Kinshasa left Katanga after the inspection. He wanted to go back to raise funds and manpower to redevelop those mines, and Senerio also couldn't wait to come to the gold mines.
Here, the colonel, who had changed into civilian clothes, kindly brought food and water to the miners imprisoned here by the Shadow Company, and even diapers and milk powder for the children.
The reason why the colonel did this was naturally to win people's hearts. Due to various previous experiences, these miners no longer had any trust in the government troops and officials, and they were more in awe of the Shadow Company.
It is impossible to expect these anxious miners to devote themselves to their work. At this moment, someone must come forward to comfort them. Naturally, they are foreigners who are not suitable for making a fool of themselves, so Senerio can only come. .
Just like Shepard said, if you want benefits, you have to work hard!
The colonel could only hold his nose and walk into the smelly houses. He showed his friendly side and tried his best to comfort the civilians who had not yet recovered from the panic.
And this kind of work was also very effective. As sufficient food was distributed one by one, the hatred in the eyes of the colonel was much lessened by the civilians. Seeing that the situation was good, Senerio immediately stood on a high place and asked the miners. They announced the good news.
"I know that you have suffered a lot of injustice in the past. You have worked hard, but you have been bullied wantonly. But now, such days will never come again!"
Senerio, who was holding a written speech, paused, and then explained to the miners gathered around him.
"We have reintroduced advanced European management technology and will no longer require you to meet the standards of the past. From now on, your remuneration will be paid fairly and reasonably. Those who work hard will also get more remuneration!"
However, no one responded to his speech. The miners still had doubts about it, and the colonel was not a fool. He immediately came up with a more convincing target.
"We have in-depth cooperation with Shadow Company. They will be responsible for protecting everyone's safety and maintaining order and stability here. In addition, they will also pay the salary and remuneration. You can't trust me or them?"
Although Shadow Company kills without blinking an eye, the problem is that it really keeps its promise, killing when told and letting go when told. Therefore, in Katanga Province, Shadow Company has basically never had any civil disputes among civilians. The reputation in the company is unexpectedly strong, especially the company's logistics and purchasing department has the best reputation. They are even willing to pay upfront when doing business, so farmers are also happy to sell their fresh agricultural products to Shadow Company.
After that, it is time to reorganize personnel and arrange work. This is the task of Shadow Company. After all, the cultural level of PMCs is better than that of black uncles, although the improvement is limited.
So more work had to be done by the miners themselves. The only thing Shepard intervened was to disrupt the composition of the miners, grouping miners from different mines together, and then they would elect the team leader and Middle managers.
This can prevent miners in the same area from clumping together and dividing their cohesion. It is like giving three bananas to five monkeys, which is an act that will be hung up on the street.
Naturally, he would not explain it like this to the black uncles. On the contrary, he also emphasized that this was to allow everyone to coordinate and cooperate better, and Shepard also asked the black uncles to nominate respected people to set up a management committee. If there was any If there is a problem, let the committee respond.
Then, he announced the salary standards and employee benefits to the black uncles according to the previous standards of United Mining. Although the salary standards were not even comparable to those Korean miners working in Germany, they were ten times or even better than their previous days. It's nine times. In addition, there are twelve-hour work systems, half-day holidays every month, half-hour breaks every four hours of work, etc. These are things that the black uncles have never had in the past.
It can be said that this set of punches instantly dispelled the workers' previous doubts. After all, how could any unscrupulous businessman give his employees vacations and three meals a day?
As a result, the enthusiasm of the miners was mobilized. Although many people still had many doubts in their hearts, when they entered the miners according to groups and completed the day's work, they really received the full wages they had promised. Although The miners were still paid in Congolese francs, but they were still money.
In the following period, the black uncles truly realized what it means to keep one's word. The Shadow Company, which manages the gold mine, perfectly implemented every request they made. The workers' dormitories were well ventilated and were managed by the miners. A logistics team composed of wives will boil hot water for the workers to bathe. The miners have brand new tools and uniforms. The mine even sent several high-power generators to the dormitories and other workers. Power supply for activity areas.
Similarly, miners will also be punished if they have problems, but these punishments are more formal than physical. Workers will have their wages deducted, and the order of eating will be adjusted to the last. In short, it is a combination of kindness and power. As a result, the production of the gold mine quickly got on track.
Shepard is also extremely satisfied with this, because in this way, Shadow Company's production and operations will also enter a virtuous cycle.
Or in other words, Shadow Company will have the ability to self-generate. In this way, even if it is unable to carry out any contracts in the future due to various reasons, the most basic personnel expenses and material support can still be met, thus avoiding problems that may cause the company to The possibility of dissolution arises.
However, there are always many problems with combat troops controlling finances. Therefore, Shepard still needs a professional team to take care of the gold mine. If combat troops are always used to do these things, problems will still arise. of!
"So, we still have to go back!"
"Then go back. Who likes to stay in the bitter cold of Africa like you?"
"You don't understand this. This land has a very innocent and wild beauty!"
Shepard was full of pride at the confusion of his subordinates. How could these guys understand his long-term plan?
"But if Smith knew that I had built a gold mine, the old man wouldn't be frightened, right?"
"It's also possible that he will ask you for his share!"
"Then I won't give you anything even if you kill me. I am the one who caused this!"
