"Then what do you think this law should contain?" Li Shimin asked.
"Returning to my father, I think that first of all, the labor law should stipulate that the employer's firm or workshop should sign a work agreement with the worker. Paper is very cheap now. The paper cost of the agreement is not much. It must be made in two copies and signed. The employer's firm or workshop and the worker each hold one copy of the painting stamp."
"And the contract is an official contract. Private changes are not allowed and the changes are invalid. Only workshops or firms are allowed to add some restrictions based on their own circumstances. However, some of the added terms are not allowed to conflict with the labor law and Datang Law. The conflict is This clause is invalid."
"Secondly, during the probation period of a commercial firm with a probation period, the salary can be 60% or 80% of the official salary, and cannot be no salary."
"Third, if the employer's firm or workshop fires a worker without reason, he should be compensated one month's salary."
"Fourth, if a worker is injured, disabled or dies during the work period, the employer or commercial firm should provide certain compensation."
"Fifth, workers are not allowed to divulge the business secrets of the employer's firm or workshop during work. If they divulge, certain penalties will be prescribed."
"Sixth, if the employer's firm or workshop reduces the employee's salary due to its own reasons, the employer has the right to resign voluntarily, and the employer's firm and workshop must compensate one month's salary."
"Currently, these six items are what I think about. The details should be supplemented and improved by ministers who are proficient in the laws of the Tang Dynasty, such as sentencing measures. The labor law should reflect the principle of fairness and justice. After all, workers are vulnerable groups."
"In fact, even if the labor law is enacted, there will still be a large number of businesses that may have to shirk the blame for a moment, and workers may have to endure it most of the time in order to ensure their own jobs and to make a living. Therefore, even if there is labor law protection, , if workers are like this, it is conceivable that they have no labor law protection.”
"Considering that there must be many voices of opposition from the people, Father, you must be able to hear it. After all, the people behind these businesses and workshops can speak in front of you, Father, but it is basically impossible for the common people in the world. "
"So Erchen is willing to set an example. During the renovation of Chang'an City, Erchen is willing to sign relevant contracts with all the workers, including Erchen's shopping mall and all the stores under his name, as a sign of this project. An experimental project in law.”
"If the effect is good, it can be promoted to the entire Chang'an area as a pilot project, with Gyeonggi II Province responsible for monitoring, and finally promoted to the whole country." Li Ke said with a calm face.
Gyeonggi Province is different from Kannai Province. During the Zhenguan Period, Gyeonggi Province was a supervisory agency rather than an administrative agency. It was only during the Kaiyuan Period that Chang'an and its affiliated jurisdictions were planned to become administrative agencies of a municipality similar to those of later generations.
After Li Ke finished speaking, all the ministers fell silent... The terms Li Ke mentioned were already very complete, but only the specific details such as sentencing needed to be changed.
But obviously, he had thought about this very carefully, but everyone felt a little uncomfortable... because Li Ke had touched the interests of all the aristocratic families.
What kind of society is feudal society? It is an extremely strict class society, where lower-class people are called lower-class people. Oh, although the Tang Dynasty did not have this title, in the eyes of the gentry, everyone except the gentry and nobles can be called lower-class people.
But if Li Ke does this, won't the interests of these people be protected? For example, about the probation period, although Datang did not have such a statement, similar things definitely existed, and they naturally understood it.
Question, can they object? No, because Li Ke is targeting businessmen. At least for now, businessmen, peasants, industry and commerce are ranked last. Businessmen are ranked last. What the hell does it have to do with you, the nobles? ! Even if the whole world knew what was going on with this fig leaf, they just couldn't refute it in the court and official circles.
It’s so uncomfortable! It’s so fucking uncomfortable!
Changsun Wuji had more thoughts on his side. Li Ke...it was clear that he was playing tricks on them again. This was directly played on the official stage. In the past, it was okay to fight with them in private, but now it is directly Go to court and expose this matter to the public.
And it's straightforward and aboveboard, just put the conspiracy here, if you have the ability, come!
Changsun Wuji couldn't think of any rebuttal. This move was his idea, but he never expected that Li Ke would come up with a labor law.
This thing...how did he think so completely? This thing should not be seen as simple, but no one with decades of experience as an official would never have thought it was so far-reaching. What's more, Li Ke thought of it in such a short time?
He even wrote a related memorial for this purpose. Just speaking of this memorial is a good article that shocked the world.
The best thing is that Li Ke should set an example and try it himself first. Who can refute this? Everyone knows that the number of people Li Ke will hire next is not just a handful.
The most important thing is that Changsun Wuji also thought of another point, that is, the Tang Dynasty Weekly is now in the hands of Li Ke. If these laws for the people are spread, they will definitely gain the support of the people all over the world. Who is against it at this time? This is standing on the opposite side of the people of the world.
It’s so uncomfortable! "Datang Weekly" shouldn't have acted so quickly, but should have carefully studied it first and thought of a foolproof way to get it directly into its hands and control it. This thing is so powerful!
If so, they wouldn't be so passive! Now Li Ke can sway public opinion at any time, and they can't refute it.
The point is that Li Ke is very shrewd. All his starting points are from the perspective of considering the Tang Dynasty. Both Li Shimin and the people have benefited, so how can they object?
Above the court, all the ministers thought very deeply. This thing felt unsolvable. The main reason was that "Datang Weekly" was too rogue. Without "Datang Weekly" and Li Ke, Quan Chang'an would have been able to expose this news at every turn. Everyone knows that they have too much room for maneuver in the court.
Unlike now...I can't even open my mouth.
"My dear friends, how do you feel?" Li Shimin suppressed the twitching of the corners of his mouth that wanted to smile, but deliberately asked with a calm face.
"I agree!" Cheng Yaojin jumped out again.
Everyone: "..." Why are you so active today, you old guy?
"Me too!" Yuchi Jingde also simply stood up.
"I agree." Li Shiji also stood up.
"I agree." Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng and others spoke. There was no way to refuse this matter. Since Li Shimin has started to ask directly, it means that Li Shimin is very fond of this matter. For other ministers, They have no way to object, so since they have no way to object, they might as well stand up and agree.
"Very good. Since most people agree, Li Ke will formulate a contract according to the terms you mentioned and then implement it. I will ask relevant officials to investigate the implementation of the contract and ask the people about their feelings." Li Shimin It was settled immediately.
"Yes! My son, I have something else to report." Li Ke bent down to salute and said loudly.
