Holy Roman Empire

Chapter 672

The prosperity of the market has also led to the prosperity of the stock market. In the face of positive news, everyone's confidence has reached its peak.

It is easier to retreat from the stock market than a real industry sale.Originally, there were selling and buying on the market every day, an increase of a few percentage points, which is also the normal fluctuation of the market.

It's not the time of economic crisis, this small fluctuation is completely within the scope of the market, the most typical is that the stock price continues to rise.

Frankly speaking, the speculation in the stock market is much higher than the gains of the manufacturing industry.However, there are advantages and disadvantages, and high returns are accompanied by high risks.

You can't make much money without playing leverage, and the risk of playing leverage is very large. Many occasionally, the market fluctuates occasionally, and it takes away a large wave of speculators.

In contrast, the physical industry is still much more stable, at least in the 19th century.

No matter how the market changes, as long as the enterprise itself has no problems, the loss is within controllable range.The market is not good enough to cut production capacity.

"Bankruptcy" is usually a problem of the enterprise itself, for example: the debt is too high and a large amount of profit is needed to repay the loan; or the management has problems and the equipment has not been replaced in time, the product has lost market competitiveness; , Taking up a lot of money ...

When the enterprise itself has no problems, it is rarely squeezed into bankruptcy.To put it bluntly, everyone is doing business to make money.

Capitalists are not so stupid as they blindly lower prices and make money.Except those who want to monopolize the market.In order to lose money to monopolize the market, that can only be counted as early investment.

For most industries, there are no monopoly conditions.The barrier to entry is too low, which suppresses a wave of competitors, and there will be new opponents, and there is no monopoly at all.

Business is not a contest of will, and capitalists usually do nothing if killing a thousand or losing 800.

The market competition is cruel, but the profit is thinned.If the entire industry is losing money, it means that the industry will be eliminated.

Under normal circumstances, even when the economic crisis broke out and the Great Depression came, only a part of the enterprises suffered losses. Most of the enterprises suffered from a decline in performance and reduced profits.

If it is functioning normally, without a lot of debt, an enterprise with strong market competitiveness can still survive.

After all, it is only in the late 19th century. There are less than 10 countries in the world that have completed industrialization. There are only two and a half real industrial powers. The market is still in a savage growth state.

Under the jungle rule of weak meat and strong food, the market will return to normal after eliminating some of the weak.No new war will break out until the winner has digested the loot.

It can be said that this is the golden age of the capitalist economy. As long as the opportunity is seized, there are too many opportunities to make a fortune.

...

The market is very good, factories are rising from the ground, advertisements for recruitment are all over the streets, but there are few candidates.

As the largest city on the border between Austria and France, Milan is also the first choice for Italian workers to enter Austria.The advantage of being close to home and high wages attracts a large number of Italians every year.

In the case of a dominant British textile industry, the Milan Textile Center can rise against the market and become one of the three largest textile centers in the world. The cheap labor in Italy also has a great contribution.

Although Austria has restrictions on foreign workers, it is not completely prohibited.You can enter the country after passing the language test and receiving it from the enterprise.

This is very inconvenient. It is very troublesome for companies to recruit people across borders, not to mention teaching each other to speak German, which takes too long.

"There are policies and measures to counter".Many migrant workers are brought by relatives and friends, and they are looking for work after entering Austria.

Compared with other parts of Austria, the Kingdom of Milan is less strict in its management of migrant workers due to its own particularities.

Many people are employed before learning the language.Anyway, the factory is also semi-closed. As long as you do n’t go out and get caught by the police, no one will delve into it.

Under this background, the underground talent recruitment market was born.Newfoundland Avenue outside Milan is one of the places where factories recruit cheap labor.

At this time in normal times, Newfoundland Street is already bustling, and a large number of people who need to work have queued up to find a job opportunity.

I don't know when to start, suddenly suddenly deserted.Not only Newfoundland Street, but many labor recruitment markets in Austria are deserted. In some areas, there have even been more recruiters than candidates.

Mirko is one of the recruiters, working for the Danier Group Machinery Factory.Usually he does not know Newfoundland Avenue. This is the lowest-end talent recruitment market in Milan. Most of the candidates are foreign workers.

Not only is the cultural level not enough, it also takes a lot of time for skill training.After wasting a lot of energy, only the basic industry workers were trained.

In contrast, Mirko prefers talent recruitment centers out of the city.Although the salary needs to be paid higher, the quality of the applicants is also higher. After entering the factory for a few years, the excellent can be used as junior skilled workers.

For the machinery factory, this kind of skilled worker is far more valuable than pure coolie.

As long as there is a large demand for labor, repetitive work, and no technology is required, this kind of labor will be recruited in large numbers.

Despise contempt. Recently, many companies are expanding their production capacity, and the labor force gap is very large.

I participated in several job fairs in the urban area, but failed to complete the recruitment task.The equipment has been debugged, and waiting for the workers to start, Mirko has to lower the recruitment standards.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Mirko couldn't believe his eyes. Is this still the most popular talent recruitment market in Milan? Why didn't I see a few people?

Long-term engaged in recruitment work, Mirco's network is still very broad, and soon met fellow acquaintances.

"Feren, what's going on, are you all robbed of you?"

The middle-aged man rolled his eyes and asked: "Do you think I look like a rewarding person?"

Mirko nodded: "Indeed, with the treatment of your textile factory, it is really difficult to rob people. However, you can fooling outside fools."

Falun frowned and said dissatisfiedly: "Milko is enough. Everyone is a peer. Saving the cost for the boss is our essential job.

Every time I recruit, I make the treatment clear. How can I be fooled by signing a contract in accordance with the law?"

Mirko smiled slightly and didn't continue the topic.If you don't know this middle-aged fat man, you will really think he is a good person.

In those days, Mirko was almost fled to sign a contract for sale when he first fled.Fortunately, he was a native and graduated from high school. He was considered a high-intelligence intellectual. After understanding his identity, Phelen didn't want to cause trouble and gave up.

Although Milan is a subordinate state, as the process of legal integration advances, labor protection laws also need to be observed.

This kind of serious and unfair contract for sale of self-deeds, no one will sue, once stabbed up, the enterprise still can't eat it.

In contrast, Huyou migrant workers are much safer.As long as the place where the contract is signed is abroad, it is a transnational case, and it is also necessary to refer to the opposite law. The Milan government is not so idle, and at the most, the contract is invalid and completed.

Without being caught, the relationship between the two is not good.It's just because of the business relationship that many times I have to deal with each other, and gradually become familiar with it, which is one layer behind my friends.

Mirko shifted the topic and said: "Fairen, I heard that your boss has opened two new factories, and the labor gap is so big, what are you going to do? Are you interested in organizing a group to go to the inland area to recruit a wave?"

This year's recruitment activities have limited funding. In order to save costs, the most common is that several companies act together to share the costs.

Feren didn't even think about it, and shook his head directly: "Milko, you think it's too good. The situation now is that there is a shortage of labor throughout the country, and even in Europe.

You rarely come to Newfoundland Avenue without knowing that the number of laborers who have entered Milan from Italy in the past two months has decreased by nearly 70%.

I asked them. It is said that many factories have recently been opened in Italy, and they can find jobs in their hometowns, but many people have just come.

This is the case in Italy. Is there anything to say in China?It is not a joke that the labor rush published in the newspaper.I have already proposed to the boss that the plan for the new branch will be postponed.

In the large-scale immigration strategy of previous years, many of the surplus domestic labor have entered Africa.Want to solve the labor gap, unless the peasants are encouraged to enter the city."

Mirko was speechless, and it was not that simple to encourage farmers to enter the city.Now the peasants have a good life, and it is not easy to want them to give up their land to work in cities.

It is best to promote at the government level to formulate more favorable policies to accelerate the urbanization process.

Unfortunately, the Vienna government believes that domestic production capacity is surplus. It is too late for the government to curb the rapid growth of production capacity. How can it introduce policies to expand the crisis?

Urbanization is risky, not as fast as possible.If a crisis breaks out and companies can't resist bankruptcy, the pressure of unemployment is all on the government.

In the case of immature conditions, Franz would rather urbanization slower.Compared with workers, farmers still have to rule.

As long as there is land, as long as the food produced by oneself can fill the stomach, no one will rebel.The government reduced or exempted part of the tax revenue, and also gained a wave of popular support.

Workers are different. Once the unemployment wave comes, the crisis will come.Not wanting to fill their stomachs, the revolution broke out in minutes.

With its current productivity, it cannot support a high degree of urbanization.It will take at least fifty years for the urbanization economy to come.

Even the British with the highest urbanization still have a third of the agricultural population, not to mention Austria, a large agricultural country.

After a short pause, Mirko slowly said: "Speak, Feren. I know you have a plan. As long as it is feasible, your benefits are indispensable."

Mirko knew that Feren was the master who did n’t see rabbits and did n’t sprinkle eagles. If he did n’t have enough benefits, he would definitely not tell him the plan.

After glancing at Mirko, Phelan shook his head: "It's not a matter of benefits, the key is that the two of us can't do it yet.

To go to the countryside to recruit people, it is indispensable to deal with the nobles.You should be aware of the changes that have occurred in China in recent years. With their intervention, it is difficult for us to obtain cheap labor."

Mirko nodded, which is also one of the characteristics of Austria.The nobles gave up serfdom and partly closed the land, but their influence in the local area is still great.

It ’s okay if it ’s a small fight. Once you find someone on a large scale, you will have to deal with the ground snake.

Even now, there are still many traditional nobles who dislike the capitalists.

Whether these people want to breathe out, or to improve their reputation in the local area, they all use the intervention.

For example: as a worker representative, talk to them about salary and sign a labor contract.

Fooling ordinary workers, they have a way, it is not easy to fool these nobles.

In case something goes wrong, they will suffer a loss.

All follow the formal procedures, labor costs increased by at least 15%.One or two people are inconspicuous. Once the number increases, this overhead is not small.

The increased expenses are only one of the problems. The treatment of new employees exceeds that of old employees.

After thinking about it, Mirko shook his head: "This matter has to be played with the nobles. It is too involved. I can't be the master. I need to report to the company's headquarters to decide. It is not clear whether I can pass it.

Mirko has self-knowledge that this kind of thing is simply not something he can participate in, and even if many are united, it may not be able to achieve the goal.

Although Austria is a capitalist country, the power of capital is still very limited in politics. To compete with the nobles for the right to speak, the risks are too great.

Sensing Mirko ’s strangeness, Feren hurriedly remedied: "No, Mirko. You think too much, I haven't lived enough, but I'm not going to find death. I mean everyone pays together and finds a way from abroad.

During the speech, Feren was cold and sweating, didn't he just want to pretend to be forced, and was actually thought of to provoke the contradiction between capital and nobility.

Whoever touches and dies to this thing, not to mention the little feet like Feren, even if their boss is involved, it will die.

It is really difficult.
