Hearing this, everyone present was surprised and in disbelief.
Someone even said bluntly: "That's a deed, how dare they sign it randomly?"
Things like deeds were originally temporary regulations created by the Daqian court to restrict the behavior of merchants.
The purpose is to crack down on those profiteers who do not keep their integrity and defraud people of their money.
But the one who really promoted such things as deeds had to be Feihong’s boss, the literary star from heaven and earth, Gu Beichuan, the Master of Poetry in Huainan!
Since he began to use deeds, merchants in Jianghuai and Huai counties gradually discovered the benefits of deeds.
Because this thing can not only regulate yourself, but also regulate other merchants!
In this way, it will be difficult to get cheated when doing business.
Because as long as you sign the deed, it means that it has legal effect. If you violate the rules, you will either pay compensation according to the amount on the deed, or... you will inevitably go to jail.
Moreover, deeds are generally used in large trading venues, or between merchants who do not trust each other very much.
As for signing a contract before joining the company, this is really unheard of and unheard of.
But every individual must be cautious.
"Huh, Qian Tong is a cunning person. He has already figured out that the female workers are greedy and ignorant of the law. It is not difficult to get them to sign the contract with a little extra monthly payment and some encouragement from someone nearby." Shen Gui replied. .
When the man from before heard this, his face suddenly turned ugly and he said, "Isn't this a bit of a violation of the rules?"
"Bad rules? What kind of rules are broken? Qian Tong didn't deny wages, and he didn't force the female workers to sign the contract. At most, it was a temptation."
"Even if this matter goes to the government, he is not at fault at all. What's more, those female workers may not always be on our side."
When everyone heard this, they fell silent and were speechless for a while.
Yes, people used to think Feihong was good because Feihong paid well and had a great reputation.
Once these two advantages are gone, who will speak for Feihong?
The business world is so cruel.
"Then...can we recruit more female workers?" someone suggested.
Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. Yes, what if the existing female workers are poached? With Feihong’s salary and benefits, there is always no shortage of employees.
Thinking of this, everyone turned their attention to Lu. She is the one responsible for recruiting employees.
When Mrs. Lu saw this, she just smiled bitterly and shook her head, saying, "Almost all the female workers in my hands have been poached by Jiangnan Qian's family."
"In addition, I also inquired about the other female workers, and the results were similar. They were either at Qian's company or at the cloth merchants who cooperated with Qian's company."
"Isn't it possible? Do they need so many female workers?" someone said in surprise.
"Humph, Qian Tong is always ruthless and ruthless in his work. Even if he keeps these people in vain, he will never let us use them." Shen Gui said.
Hearing this, everyone frowned, realizing how difficult their opponent was.
Such a person will force you into a desperate situation as soon as he takes action!
"Is there no other way?" The atmosphere at the scene was dull, and the tone of the speaker was even more negative.
"How about... going to the big boss to discuss something?"
As soon as these words came out, the scene fell into silence.
Everyone lowered their heads, not daring to look at Shen Gui's face.
Because...this is indeed a solution.
In the eyes of everyone in Feihong, the Big Boss is omnipotent, and the crisis that caused them a lot of headaches last time was easily resolved by them.
but!
Their department had just found a big boss not long ago! Now that he wants to go again, doesn't it mean that he is not capable of waiting for others?
The most important thing is that only Shen Gui, who is the general manager of Feihong Cloth Industry, can find Gu Beichuan, so only Shen Gui is qualified to lose this face.
As expected, when Shen Gui heard this, his expression suddenly turned ugly.
In his more than 20 years of experience in the business world, this was the first time he encountered such an embarrassing scene.
It's just that his abilities are not as good as those of his big boss. He can't even handle small things well, which alarms him again and again.
What will the big boss think?
But... As of now, it seems that this is the only way.
Thinking of this, Shen Gui sighed, his face full of helplessness.
It seems to be acknowledging old age, but more like lamenting.
Suddenly, he became fierce again and said: "I will take care of the shortage of manpower. In addition, you issue a notice and raise the monthly salary of the female workers."
When everyone heard this, they first breathed a sigh of relief, then frowned. Some people were surprised and said: "Outside the staff, haven't all the female workers signed contracts with Qian's Clothing Company? Why do they need to increase their monthly wages?"
"Most of the female workers have signed contracts with Qian's Clothing Company, but there are still a small number of female workers who have not signed, as well as female workers who are still with us at Feihong."
"The reason for raising the monthly payment is to retain them."
"Furthermore, our monthly salary has been raised. If Qian's Clothing Company does not want to cause a mutiny among the female workers, it will naturally follow suit."
"Since he is willing to support these female workers for free, let him pay more money!" Shen Gui said in a low tone with a fierce expression.
Qian Tong, Qian Tong, if you want to eat me, Shen Gui, you have to be prepared to break your teeth!
"I understand! As long as we raise the monthly salary high enough, if Qian's Clothing Company fails to successfully win the order business from the three northern counties this time, it will definitely suffer a huge loss, and it will not even be able to pay the monthly salary to the female workers. I can’t even get the money out!”
"Not bad!" Shen Gui nodded and said, "Since he likes gambling, I will let him gamble more thoroughly."
…
Three days later.
Jiangnan County, Feihong Restaurant, private room on the second floor.
Qian Tong and the other four people were gathering together.
"Hahaha, we have poached almost all of Feihong's female workers. Then Shen Guicai realized that he is really a mediocre person." Mr. Li laughed heartily, obviously very happy.
"Yes, without female workers, even if Feihong has a new loom, it will be difficult for a skilled woman to make a meal without rice. This time, we are finally sure of victory." Gao Yuanwai also spoke up, with a brisk tone.
"Drink, drink, the cloth business in Jianghuai County is still ours after all." Gu Jun was also high-spirited, as if he had seen the huge empire he had established for his eldest son by defeating Feihong's boss.
Only Qian Tong frowned and said nothing.
"Old Qian, what worries do you have?" Gao Yuanwai was still attentive and saw some clues.
"It's nothing, it's just that Feihong Cloth Industry just raised the monthly wages of female workers a few days ago."
"Haha, the increase is only happening now. The female workers have already signed contracts with us, so it's already too late." Li Yuanwai said disdainfully.
"It's too late, but the female workers are angry and some are passive and slow down work." Qian channeled.
Hearing this, Yuan Li became furious and said: "The wages we pay are much higher than usual. Those women are not satisfied!"
