Nightmare wake up

Chapter 366 Yongyang Lighting Seeking Tickets 5K
Correct the typo later] Thinking of getting rich, Unpredictable is not in a hurry, and his face is full of joy:
"The Ombudsman investigates, let your boss come out!"

Scarface saw clearly the black uniform inside the collar of the Unpredictable Windbreaker. He originally thought that the young man was trying to stand up for the workers on strike, so he shot without hesitation.

After all, after receiving the order from above, the stalemate will disperse after a period of time. If a worker shows up, he can be killed without hesitation.

At this time, it is impossible to get off the stage
If you give in, but in front of hundreds of workers behind you, the stalemate might get out of control, and maybe it really can't be suppressed.

Hard bar is also not acceptable!This young man is a member of the Supervision Bureau, and it will be even more troublesome if he offends the official.

The thugs hired by the factory will not be stupid, have no sense of value, let alone offend people for the boss - no brainless idiot can eat the bowl of thugs, most of them are smooth.

If you do this without thinking, it is essentially whether the "job" can beat the "bloody" spirit, unless the scar is not worried about his own job, or is a relative of the factory owner's family.

Scar is a person who has seen the storm, he felt annoyed that he caused trouble, but he reacted very quickly, he stretched out his arms and put his arm around Mi Ke's shoulder, and turned around with Mi Ji.

With his back to the workers behind him, he didn't have to worry about being seen, Scar just smiled all over his face:
"Brother, misunderstood, misunderstood!"

"Don't be angry with brother, it will be over in a while, brother invites you to drink to apologize."

They are all human beings!Quan Te is social hob meat. Unpredictable smiled secretly, but his face did not change at all, and said in a cold voice:

"I dare not, I'm afraid there will be guns in the wine."

If I want to have a drink, I will dismiss it, and let this matter go, there is no way!You don't seem to be a relative of the factory owner's family, you've been coaxed so quickly!
Unpredictable, a master who doesn't see rabbits and doesn't scatter eagles, can figure out the guy with his arms around his shoulders in a few words.

As for what he said just now, he naturally held on to the gun, so Scarface naturally understood.

It's nothing more than a plunder by officials.

Cursing inwardly, "Unlucky", Scar pursed his lips:

"Brother, who are you looking for in our factory? The boss is inside!"

This old man is such a wonderful person, Mi Ke almost laughed out loud.

He knew that he was going to hold on to this matter, so he sold the boss directly, thinking that the boss would come forward to "pay the bill".

Is it nothing more than losing money? Everyone knows that Scar doesn't want to pay the money himself.

He has scars on his face, looks fierce, and has a gun in his waist. But he is just a coward who relies on the pretense of a fox to survive.

He is also a beaten worker who has been ravaged by society.

It doesn't matter if it is unpredictable, maybe the factory owner can solve this matter and pay a little more.

The old fritters in society are well versed in the way of profit.

Mi Ke easily followed Dao Scar's footsteps, walked through the corridor of the management room one after the other, and met the owner of this "Yongyang Lighting" directly.

A middle-aged man in his 40s, from Europa, who reported himself as Malm Ron.

Temporarily suppressing the shooting incident, Mi Ke sat on the sofa and explained his purpose.

The middle-aged boss obviously breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Scar to call the foreman in charge of recruiting workers, and said with a smile:
"The things outside make you laugh. This group of wage-earning sluts are making trouble. It's really annoying."

Mo Ke nodded with a smile, and just glanced at the expression of the middle-aged boss, and he understood why he was relaxed.

Probably mistakenly thought that he was going to participate in the strike as an official.

Without the interference from above, a strike is nothing more than a disturbance, but if the above speaks out, it will be difficult for the boss.

He doesn't want to pay his workers at all!
"Why didn't you stop working?" Mo Ke asked casually, like a mirror in his heart.

"Of course we can't shut down!"

The boss personally poured a cup of black tea for Mo Ce, and placed it in front of Mo Ce:

"Our Yongyang Lighting is an order from the city hall, and we need to deliver 20 bulbs before the Longevity Festival."

Light bulb?Unexpectedly, his heart moved suddenly, and he asked:

"Is it an electric lamp to replace an oil lantern?"

The boss smiled happily and nodded again and again:
"Mr. Mo knows about this, haha, yes, this is the order."

"This year's Changsheng Festival is here, and the city hall is worried that it will cause a fire like in previous years. The official funded an order of 20 light bulbs, and then distributed them to the citizens of Hot Spring for free."

"It's the business that our Yongyang Lighting took over, so we didn't deliver until yesterday."

This matter was discussed with Papa Ding, and Andre also said that it was a waste of money for the federal government to spend. It turned out that the lights were made by this factory.

Before Mo Ke could speak, Scarface had already led the foreman in.

After hearing Mo Ke's name, the foreman showed a look of reminiscence on his face, and quickly punched with both hands:
"That's right, Liang Ai, I remember this Liang Ai!"

"He's our temp, the guy I hired myself."

After checking, Ai Liang really came here to work.Unpredictable nodded:
"Talk more!"

"This guy is a very bad bastard. He has a good skin, but he doesn't work very well. He is always lazy!" Hearing Mi Ke's question, the foreman complained endlessly:
"I'm very impressed with him! This kid has only been working for two days, and he is very inattentive, and he can't keep up with the output of the female workers."

"I originally planned to drive him away, but he didn't come by himself on the third day. It's worth noting this kind of garbage worker."

How dare you say you fired the agent of the "Shadow" organization?Then there must be at least a half-spirit level, Mi Ke smiled wryly in his heart.

It seems that Ai Liang did come to this factory to work for two days, but what was his purpose for doing so?

It's puzzling.
Could it be that it is not normal to live in a hotel all the time, worried that it will attract the attention of others, so you come to work as a cover?

It's not like, it can't be that simple. If you want to behave normally, Ai Liang obviously has many better choices.

Unpredictably suspicious, he asked the foreman a few more words, but found no other noteworthy clues.

The foreman had to leave.

After finishing business, Mo Ce took a sip of tea, looked at the scar next to him, and said to the factory owner:

"Your subordinates are very fierce. Without further ado, just come up and shoot me."

"Fortunately, I have good skills, so I can hide quickly!"

Scarface looked at the factory owner in embarrassment.

With just one sentence, the factory owner already understood the meaning of Mi Ke, glared at Scar, and smiled apologetically at Mi Ke:
"It's our fault that Mr. Mo was surprised."

After finishing speaking, he reached out and took out a kraft paper bag from the drawer, got up and walked in front of Mo Ke:

"It's a little bit of fun, and it's going to scare Mr. Mo."

Not bad, very good!Mo Ke was surprised by the other party's cooperation, and glanced at the thickness of the kraft paper, which should be about ten gold dollars.

These are generally integers, that is ten gold dollars.

"As expected of the person who took orders from the city hall, Mr. Ron's business is booming."

Unpredictably praised indifferently, reached out to take the paper bag, and stuffed it into the pocket of the windbreaker:
"That's over."

Paused, Unpredictable laughed

"If Boss Ron wants me to do anything else, you can just tell me."

The other party did not hesitate to pay the bill for "Scar", and such an active "contribution" of ten gold dollars showed that it was not just a trivial matter of scaring the scar with a gun. Purpose.

This is probably not only the "common affairs fee" but also a part of the "relationship fee" in the ten gold dollars. I don't think that when I meet the other party for the first time, I have the face that the other party is willing to spend money on. After all , I am just an inspector.

Therefore, the other party should have something to ask for!Also because it is the first time to meet, it is estimated that it is not too much to ask.

As an official, one must be quick-witted, and Mo Ke has no problem in this regard.

Boss Ron laughed a few times when he heard the words, and said:
"Mr. Mo is a smart man, be refreshing!"

"There is no request, I just hope you don't bring up our affairs here."

Mo Ke looked at the smile lines in the corners of Boss Ron's eyes, and immediately understood what the other party was worried about:

"Boss Ron, don't worry, I won't make you uncomfortable."

After finishing speaking, Mo Ke added with a smile: "Factories that can receive orders from the city hall also have connections behind them."

"Hahaha" Malm Ron laughed loudly:

"Mr. Mo is indeed a mixed official."

"Today, I have met Mr. Mo, so why not make friends and take care of me in the future."

Mo Ke nodded with a smile, paused, and then frowned and said:
"However, I'm still very puzzled by this, Mr. Ron."

"Your Excellency is actually able to take orders from the city hall, so it must not be short of working capital like workers' wages, right?"

"If you are willing to make friends with me, why can't you calm down and let these workers disperse?"

"You need to know!" Mo Ke's face turned serious:
"No.1 in Shouyang Province is in Requan City, if something goes wrong, no one can save Yongyang Lighting."

That's right, Boss Ron is still afraid that the strike will become a big issue, and the government will get involved, and if there is a conflict during the provincial inspection, the image of the incident will only be infinitely magnified, and it will not end in the end.

But since there is such a worry, why not pay the wages in arrears?Obviously relying on government orders to earn a lot of money is right, and since he is willing to spend ten gold dollars to "befriend" a grassroots inspector like Mo Ke, he must be the one who is not short of money.

Hearing this, Malm Ron took a deep look at Unpredictable, hesitated for a long time, and then sighed:

"To be honest, Mr. Mo! Our Yongyang Lighting will declare bankruptcy after the Longevity Festival, and the Federation will bid for it."

"Although I made a lot of money from the city hall's orders, as you know, the government's money is not easy to get. I'm afraid I won't be able to settle the payment next year."

Looking at Malm's distressed and worried look, Mi Ke felt the same way. In his previous life, it seemed that many companies were dragged into bankruptcy by the federal debt.

After thinking about it, Mo Ke asked:

"Doesn't your factory have a federal background?"

Upon hearing this, Malm sighed heavily again:

"Our factory is owned by a big shot. Unfortunately, the big shot passed away a few days ago."

Unpredictable moved his heart, and opened his mouth in surprise.

This seems to be related to me?

The big shot in Hot Springs who left a few days ago seems to be the Chief of Security, Maeve Foresta, right?
This factory belongs to Maeve Foresta? !
Seeing Unpredictable was a little surprised, but Malm thought that as a person in the officialdom, he had already guessed who it was, and explained:

"That's right, it's Mr. Maeve Foresta, the Director of Public Security. He is the behind-the-scenes boss of this factory and owns 60.00% of the factory company's shares."

"It is also because of his relationship that Yongyang Lighting can get the order from the city hall."

"It's a pity that he left suddenly a few days ago. Our factory. You know, as the factory manager, I'm just a more senior worker."

Unpredictable suddenly understood the whole story.

This factory is the "private property" of Maeve Foresta. This is not surprising. Many federal officials have capital and industries. This is a common phenomenon in the Rodinia continent.

Although it has won the official order from the city hall, the factory has lost its backing after Maeve Foresta was killed by himself, and it has become extremely difficult to get the money from the city hall.
No, I'm afraid it's not just that. Boss Ron said that this factory will be auctioned off. This means that the power of the city council will be reshuffled, and this factory will naturally be one of the "cards".

It's just that the way to play cards is to see who will buy the bottom after the bankruptcy auction of this factory.

"There is indeed a little money in the book, which is enough to pay the workers' wages."

Boss Ron said to Mo Ke:
"But if all the working capital is sent out, it won't look good on the books. You know about the auction audit!"

Having said that, Ron smiled bitterly, with a hint of ruthlessness on his face:
"It's nothing more than a group of maggots who work. If they don't pay them, they will just make trouble for a while. What else can they do?"

"There are plenty of workers. As long as I can continue to work for the new boss after the auction next year, as long as I can start working, I can recruit a large number of new workers."

Uh~~~ Typical capitalist position, but, you are obviously just a high-level laborer, do you really regard yourself as the master?Unpredictable sneered in his heart, his face was still flawless, and he complimented with a thick skin half a meter thick:
"Mr. Ron is really good at business and knows how to reduce costs. I admire you."

"Mr. Mo's too much." Naturally, Ron couldn't see through the professional disguise of "Dream of Heart".

"On my side, don't worry! Even if someone brings this matter to the Supervision Office, I will stop it." Seeing that the time was almost up, Mo Ke got up and left, and finally did not forget to explain:
"However, it's best not to make a big deal out of things. No one can save Yongyang Lighting if you go straight to Tianting."

Mi Ke stepped out without any psychological pressure.

Malm Ron, who sent the guests back to the office, showed disdain and muttered:

"The moths on this group of iron gods are disgusting!"

Mi Ke went out and once again passed through the group of workers surrounded outside the factory management.

Most of them are ragged and tired, and they must have been confronting the gray-clothed thugs for a whole day.

Most of them have hunger on their faces, they can't get their meager salaries, and their eyes are full of confusion about the future.

Behind each of them, there may be a family with a wife and children to support.

When Unpredictable walked through them, the initial expectation of this young man who dared to "adventure" dissipated, and was replaced by the same numbness.

I am not the savior, so why look at me?Unpredictably silent, he walked out of the factory.

Seeing that Zong Baiyi was still waiting in the corner behind the hotel, Mi Ke motioned him to wait for a while, then turned and entered the Sophia Hotel.

Borrowing a public phone, he called the Transportation Department directly, and contacted Papa Ding, who was accompanying the provincial inspection, as an inspector.

"Vice Speaker Ding, I'm Xiao Mo."

Unpredictable held up the microphone and laughed softly:

"Deputy Speaker Ding, I have to report something to you as soon as possible. The workers at Yongyang Lighting in the southern district are on strike. Someone has already fired a gun. I almost hit me just now."

"No, no, no, I have the duties of the Supervision Bureau, not to seek an explanation for myself, but I think this matter is going to explode, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to end it."

"Ouyang Province is in our Requan City, which may affect the image of our Requan City."

"After much deliberation on this matter, I have to report to you first. You have been committed to establishing a trade union, isn't it just to protect the rights and interests of workers?"

"I'm afraid you'll have to do it."

Hanging up the phone, Mo Ke felt relieved for a while.

Papa Ding is definitely going to make a move!After all, it's the provincial inspection period, so don't make trouble.

And with Papa Ding's consistent standpoint, he should find a way to get these workers paid.

Although this was equivalent to defrauding Malm Ron of the ten gold dollar relationship fee, Mi Ke had no psychological burden.

Lao Tzu's title is a nightmare, and his obsession is "fraud"!
What happened to cheating you of money?
You are the one who lied!
Besides, they didn't lie to Malm Ron, and this incident was not reported to the Supervision Office, but directly told to the Deputy Speaker of Hot Spring City.

Hmm, they didn't lie.

Get in the car, and return straight to the Supervision Office with Zong Chen.

Zong Baiyi has already reported the incident and notified Captain Vera.

Seeing the unpredictable silence, Zong Baiyi asked:
"Is there any gain from going to the factory? Any clues about Ai Liang?"

Mo Ke shook his head: "Just to make sure that he did go to that factory to work for two days."

"In this case, it is even more puzzling."

"What is Ai Liang doing at Yongyang Lighting? I really can't figure it out."

Zongchen frowned, thought for a moment, and said, "I think it should be related to the conspiracy of the Longevity Festival."

"Moreover, Ai Liang went to work in person, which is enough to show that this matter probably cannot be replaced by others. It is a key link."

Mo Ke was reminded by Zong Baiyi, and suddenly felt as if he had grasped something faintly, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.

All kinds of clues are intertwined with each other, and there seems to be some kind of weird connection, but it is impossible to see the whole from a part.

It seems that it needs to be tidied up.

Mo Ke nodded and said, "Let's go back to the Supervisory Office first."

"I'm going to find Hong Fang now."
