Chapter 48 (1/2)

Because there are only three machines, renting one of them is enough. Even a large area is still empty, and it only costs 600 yuan a month.

Walking into the factory, three workers are adding softener to the machine. They greet Wei Sheng and Liu Jianren happily.

The three men worked together. According to the leader, Lao Li, they came to Hutai county to work together. They used to work at the construction site. Since Lao Li was too tired to do it, they thought about finding another way out.

What's more, Hutai county's construction site earned no more than this factory, and it was often in arrears.

The three of them were on day shift, and they made a floor in the factory every night, which did not affect the work of the shift workers. When we get there, we'll take over the shift.

Wei Sheng also kindly provided them with accommodation, plus three meals a day, and ordered a box lunch in a nearby restaurant. The total cost was not much.

”I'll go back to stock later. I'll buy it every two days. It's estimated that I won't have to work so hard for a month.” Liu Jianren said with a happy smile. Although he stayed up all night, he was obviously in a good mood.

After that, he turned to Lao Li and said, ”Lao Li, you will come with me later. Is it OK for Xiao Liu to see the two machines by himself? Just an hour. ”

”No problem, brother Zhao! My brother Li's one will be ready in half an hour. I can see it myself! ” Said the young man, who was called Xiao Liu, with a cheerful smile.

Liu Jianren greets Lao Li and goes to the goods.

Wei Sheng took five yuan to Xiao Liu and asked them to buy some breakfast by themselves. They also prepared to go to school directly.

At present, fried dough sticks are only four for one yuan and fifty cents for a bowl of bean curd. Five yuan is enough for three people to have a good breakfast.

After Wei Sheng left, Xiao Liu put five yuan into his pocket and said to another person with a smile, ”our boss is very righteous. Hey, he doesn't treat us badly.”

”The boss is good or not. If we do well here in the future, we will not be treated badly. Even if we don't know how many days this factory can do.” Another young man shook his head as he looked at the desolate walls with only three machines and a concrete floor full of waste plastic.

Such a small scale, coupled with the boss is two young people, it is really disturbing.

”Hi! A day is a day! The machine can't run here. This machine is very expensive Xiao Liu said with a smile.

……

In 1998, with the deepening of market economic system reform, in order to meet the needs of socialist market economic system, state-owned enterprises must establish a modern enterprise system.

That is, the reform of state-owned enterprises.

Therefore, the state has set up the reform ideas of ”reducing staff and increasing efficiency, separating laid-off workers, standardizing bankruptcy and encouraging merger”. While the reform of state-owned enterprises has made great progress, a large number of employees have been laid off.

With the deepening of the reform of state-owned enterprises, the number of laid-off workers is also increasing, which eventually leads to the wave of laid-off, and 60% of the state-owned enterprise personnel have gone from iron rice bowl to unemployment. This speed is rare in the world.

”Laid off workers” once became the most frequently used new word in the society.

Uncle Yang Liping has been in a state-owned factory for the past two days. He doesn't understand how to make reforms suddenly and to lay off a large number of employees.
