Rebirth Craftsman

The preserved egg breakfast shop, in the backyard.

Liu Xing is packing his luggage to rent a house.

After all, the weather is getting cold, so if you don't bring more clothes to rent a house, then you will be the one who will suffer the cold.

Little Peanut on the side looked at it with her small mouth deflated. He opened his mouth several times to speak, but finally couldn't speak.

As soon as Liu Xing looked back at this scene, he couldn't help but shook his head dotingly: "What's the matter, my brother is going to study, but he is not coming back."

"But... but it's not fun to be alone at home!" Little Peanut narrowed his mouth, and finally couldn't help crying.

"Oh!" Liu Xing reached out and picked up Peanut, not knowing what to say for a while.

Since his parents took over the brick factory in Qingshi Village, he can see them almost every day late, sometimes even for half a month without seeing anyone.

If you say it is making money, you can make tens of thousands of dollars a month after you remove the expenses. Compared with him, it is simply incomparable.

But he still has time to accompany Xiao Peanut!

And the parents!

It's all right now, no matter what.

It seemed that he was supposed to take care of his younger siblings.

Did they forget that Peanut and Liu Hang are their children.

His elder brother is obligated to take care of Xiao Peanut and Liu Hang, but he does not have this responsibility. At least, the responsibility of being a parent should be greater!

Liu Xing felt a little annoyed when he thought of this. He was about to take out his mobile phone to call his father and talk about Little Peanut's affairs. Liu Yi came with Murphy, and they both smiled happily.

"Yo! Are you back so soon?" Liu Xing greeted him with some surprise in a daze.

"Yeah!" Murphy nodded shyly.

"Come on, eat candy!" Liu Yi opened the backpack and handed it to Xiao Peanut.

"Wow! A lot of toffee!" Little Peanut, who was not very happy, saw that his backpack was filled with toffee he liked, and immediately broke free from Liu Xing's hand happily, regardless of whether Liu Yi wanted it or not. He grabbed the entire backpack in his hand, and then ran into his room to play with short legs.

"This kid!" Liu Xing shook his head.

"It's okay, I just prepared it for Xiao Peanut!" Liu Yi smiled and glanced around: "Master, I can tell you the good news. Sagong Lei came out of Zhushen Cave. Zhang Qiufa, Yue Furong, and Pu Feng came out together. Dao Chief and more than a dozen people."

"Oh!" Liu Xing nodded slowly.

He was not surprised by the good news.

After all, he told Sikong Lei how to leave the Bamboo God Cave through the phone.

When Liu Yi learned the news, he must have gone to Xiangbei Province and did not find Liu Lao, and finally went to Xiangxi, where he learned the inside story.

"But the current situation in Xiangxi is not optimistic. In addition to Sikong Lei, people like Pu Feng Daochang, Zhang Qiufa, Yue Furong and others have all been hit by the bamboo bee sting, and dozens of Lin family members such as Lin Yaotian have also been hit by this. Bamboo bee sting, my grandpa meant to invite you to take a trip to Xiangxi to help relieve the hidden danger of bamboo bee sting." Liu Yi said after he moved a wooden chair.

"I'm not going, I want to study!" Liu Xing immediately replied cheerfully when he heard that Si Konglei was fine.

"Master, don't be like this, okay, my grandfather has taken advantage of the Lin Family this time, if you don't do it, it will be a big trouble!" Liu Yi became anxious.

"Your grandfather took the advantage, but I didn't take it. Why should I do it?" Liu Xing spread his hand amusingly: "Besides, the person who was caught by the bamboo bee sting must be trying to hit the baby in the bamboo god cave. Otherwise, I would never be hit."

"How on earth do you want to go to Xiangxi?" Liu Yi knew that Liu Xing was not a greedy person, and he definitely didn't want to save the Lin family and talked to him like this, so he asked after a daze.

"Why would they not come to the market if I went to Xiangxi?" Liu Xing asked rhetorically.

"This..." Liu Yi was asked.

But on closer thought, what Liu Xing said really makes sense.

After all, it is the Lin family asking Liu Xing to heal the injury, not Liu Xing asking the Lin family to treat the injury. Once the relationship between them is confused, the situation will be a little different.

"Your grandfather knows that I won't go to Xiangxi at this time, so he passed through you to tell me what happened in Xiangxi. Of course, his old man also knows that people who have been stabbed by a bamboo bee, as long as they don’t move. I can still live for a few months!" Liu Xing casually sat beside Liu Yi: "I am a little worried about the disease caused by the golden obsidian. After all, the Phoenix grass disappeared overnight."

"This master doesn't need to worry about it at all, because before the disappearance of the Phoenix grass, many Xiangxi villagers stored a lot of Phoenix grass in their homes to treat the Lin family and other villagers poisoned by the golden obsidian. That is more than enough!" Liu Yidan Smiled back.

"Is it used up?" Liu Xing looked at Liu Yi solemnly.

"This..." Liu Yi was asked again.

"The disappearance of the phoenix grass was completely made by the Lin family. Do you know the value of the phoenix grass in the mountains and plains in western Hunan? If measured by money, I am afraid it will exceed hundreds of millions!" Liu Xing picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea: "Now That’s it. You told me that your grandfather took a lot of benefits from the Lin family. These benefits are compared with the Phoenix grass. Will your grandfather not know which is more important?"

Liu Yi opened his mouth, and finally got stuck in his throat and couldn't speak.

Because what Liu Xing said was reasonable, he couldn't refute it.

"Your grandfather asked you to return to the market because he hopes that you will be less involved in the affairs of Xiangxi, because the more you are at this time, the more you have to be careful!" Liu Xing did not treat Liu Yi as an outsider, and after a shallow sip of tea, The voice said earnestly: "If I didn't guess wrong, a new group of Lin family members will settle in Xiangxi, ready to explore the Bamboo God Cave."

"You... how do you know?" Liu Yi was taken aback.

As far as the matter is concerned, as far as his grandfather, Deng Qi, Si Konglei, and him knew, Liu Xingyuan knew about it when he was in the market. This was really incredible.

"Of course I guessed! After all, Lin Yaotian is not dead, and the things in the Bamboo God Cave are endless." Liu Xing shook his head and smiled: "You take Murphy back to the place where you live! I'm afraid you two look affectionate. I'm going to drink your wedding wine soon, right?"

"Ahem... Alright! Alright!" Liu Yi did not hide in front of Liu Xing, and replied with a dry smile.

Murphy lowered his head shyly when he heard the words, and after biting his lip, he turned and ran into the room where Peanut was.

"Haha...I'm still shy!" Liu Xing said jokingly.

"She has this character, but I like it!" Liu Yi smiled.

"Just like it, yes! You can tell me more about the situation in Xiangxi while it's okay now!" Liu Xing saw no one everywhere, the smile on his face narrowed, and he was serious instead.

"Okay!" After thinking about it, Liu Yi said in detail what he knew and saw.

In fact, nothing was said, it was just trivial matters.

After all, Mr. Liu is now settled in Xiangxi.

The Lin family did not dare to mess around, so all matters concerning the excavation of the Bamboo God Cave must be carried out under the strict supervision of both parties.

And now that Lin Grape was rescued, Lin Yaotian didn't dare to threaten Sikong Lei to do anything. This made the entire Lin family passive.

But say a thousand words and ten thousand.

There is one thing that cannot be changed.

That is, the excavation of the Bamboo God Cave still cannot stop.

This makes Liu Xing very worried, but he knows that he is small and can't change anything.

So in front of Liu Yi, he didn't say much.

After learning about the recent situation in Xiangxi, Liu Yi took Murphy back to the place where he lived to rest.

And he took Xiao Peanut to a meeting at the bamboo stick products workshop.

The content of the meeting naturally warned Gao Dazhuang and Zhu Xiuqing about the payment of the order, and then talked about the plan for layoffs.

The layoff plan was actually revealed to Zhu Xiuqing and Gao Dazhuang a few days ago by Liu Xing.

The two didn't seem to take it seriously at the time. After being trained this time, they realized that Liu Xing was not joking.

But the problem is, the craftsmen currently recruited into the bamboo-shenzhen product workshop and the bamboo mat processing factory have a good relationship with them. This layoff will be very difficult no matter who is laid off.

Liu Xing had already seen Zhu Xiuqing and Gao Dazhuang's thoughts, otherwise the two of them would never take orders everywhere in the recent period, even small orders of several thousand yuan would be accepted.

Although this is kind.

But it runs counter to his plan.

Liu Xing wanted to scold them a few words at the meeting.

In the end, he endured it. After checking the detailed data of the account order, he suddenly made a decision: "If you want to not lay off people, but the business of our bamboo stick products workshop is about to enter the off season. So in order to maintain it, I decided to lower the unit price of bamboo products."

"How much?" Gao Dazhuang asked happily.

As long as no layoffs are made, everything is easy to say.

After all, the wages of craftsmen in his bamboo mat processing factory are indeed a bit high, and it is imperative to reduce the unit price of the piece.

Zhu Xiuqing was also happy and listened with bated breath.

"At least it must be reduced by half, and it will be implemented from tomorrow. If anyone doesn't want to, he will pay his salary and let him leave!" Liu Xing didn't want to stop talking nonsense, and got up and walked towards the preserved egg breakfast shop after saying this.

"No... Isn't it a lot of drop?" Gao Dazhuang chased after him.

"Then how much do you want to drop?" Liu Xing looked back and smiled at the tall and strong.

"Let's reduce one-tenth first, do you do it slowly!" The tall and strong smiled and scratched his head.

"Okay! My boss can also let you do it!" The smile on Liu Xing's face still did not disappear, but there were signs of bad words in his words.

Gao Dazhuang felt it, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck and didn't speak.

"Do you know how much the bamboo mat processing factory you manage now has a day's expenses?" Liu Xing stared at Gao Dazhuang: "Then I tell you, it has reached more than 20,000 a day. Now that there are orders, I can maintain it. , But no order?

Without an order, excluding the daily salary expenses, it would cost at least several thousand yuan a day. This does not include other hidden expenses. You are not the boss anyway, and you don’t know the difficulties of the boss.

How did I tell you at the beginning that the reason why the unit price of the piece rate is so high is to speed up the production of bamboo products. When the order is completed, it is the time for layoffs.

When there are orders next year, then we are recruiting them. After all, there are hard-pressed battalion soldiers. We can recruit them if they are gone, but if the battalion is gone, then there will be nothing.

Don't think that our way of laying off these craftsmen is very unnatural, but we paid them almost ten times higher wages than other colleagues, nearly ten times!Is this not enough?"

Running a factory, recruiting people in peak seasons, and laying off people in off-seasons is a very common thing decades later. Basically no one will gossip. After all, if the processing plant is to operate normally, it must increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

It's not that Liu Xing's heart is black, but that he doesn't do it. The craftsmen who work in the bamboo products have a better life, but his life in Liu Xing is probably going to be sad.

Because hundreds of people spend a day, it would cost tens of thousands!

"But... but I don't know who to cut?" The tall and strong man lowered his head.

Zhu Xiuqing also shrank her neck and dared not speak.

After all, he knew that what Liu Xing was telling was the truth, and the bamboo-shen stick products workshop didn't owe craftsmen at all. The layoffs must be carried out no matter when they start.

Because after the order for the pig-raising shed is finished, many craftsmen have nothing to do. If it weren’t for the order of bamboo mats and bamboo mats to support it, I’m afraid there will be at least three hundred craftsmen on holiday now.

"Now I didn't ask you to lay off employees. You will cut the unit price of all bamboo products by half before you talk!" Knowing the difficulty of being tall and strong, Liu Xing reached out and patted the tall and strong shoulder and shook his head and left.

"What to do?" Gao Dazhuang looked at Zhu Xiuqing.

"What else can I do? Just do it." Zhu Xiuqing spread his hands: "Actually, I have never told you that Chaudley's order for bamboo mats is expected to be reduced by half next month."

"Huh?" Gao Dazhuang was shocked.

Now he manages the bamboo mat processing factory, and Zhu Xiuqing manages the bamboo stick products workshop, but it is because of Chaudley's large order that things can be done.

If Chaudley’s orders were to be cut in half, it would be a big deal of trouble not to lay off staff.

Even if the current operating model is to calculate the money according to the piece rate, the daily expenses for food and accommodation of hundreds of craftsmen cannot be sustained!

"Stop, do as Liu Xing said!" Zhu Xiuqing smiled bitterly, and went to work with her.

Gao Dazhuang had no choice but to ride a motorcycle back to the bamboo mat processing factory and announced that the unit price was reduced by half. What he did not expect was that when the news came out, the usually idle craftsmen did not make trouble for the first time. It is to take the lead to find him to resign and pay.

He was naturally very happy, and quickly registered his name to pay his wages.

After this wave, he discovered that there were so many craftsmen, and he didn't even need to mention layoffs.

"This Liu Xing, it turns out that even if the piece rate is reduced, a lot of craftsmen will resign! He is really amazing!" Gao Dazhuang looked at the bill in his hand and sighed for a while.

Here is the Bamboo God Strip Products Workshop in the market.

The news of the unit price reduction came out.

There was no resistance from any craftsman.

After all, they had long known that such a day would come, because they took dozens or hundreds of dollars a day, which would not happen in 1994 at other factories or construction sites.

For them, it is only reasonable to reduce the unit price of the piece rate, and only then can this bamboo god strip product workshop continue to operate healthily.

It's just that, it makes Zhu Xiuqing difficult.

As soon as the news of the reduction in the unit price of the piece rate came out, no one actually offered to resign, but they were all willing to continue to work at the bamboo stick products.

This is a far cry from the situation of a bamboo mat processing factory managed by a tall and strong man. After all, the craftsmen in the countryside have completely different ideas from those in the city.

Before Liu Xing went to rent a house, after learning the news, he gave Zhu Xiuqing a trick, which was a holiday.

Craftsmen who have nothing to do are on holiday. Isn't it the season to harvest late rice?Let them all go back to collect late rice and notify them in advance when something is done.

Of course, before calling them back, they will definitely pay enough for their wages.

This approach is no different from layoffs in disguise.

But the craftsmen who worked in the bamboo-shen stick products workshop were all happy to accept it.

Because they can also see that as the weather gets colder, the business of the bamboo-shen stick products workshop has entered the off-season.

If this is still dependent on the bamboo stick products workshop, wouldn't it make Liu Xing lose money?

Therefore, many self-aware craftsmen have paid their wages and returned, even Li Hu is no exception. He took his family back to Jizhou to build a red brick house.

After all, the money he made in the bamboo-shen stick products workshop in the past few months is enough for him to build a good red brick house in Jizhou.

When Liu Xing learned in the renting house that Li Hu had also resigned and went back, he shook his head helplessly.

In fact, he didn't want to be like this either, but the bamboo stick products workshop is now just a processing factory without technical content. If it wants to become bigger and stronger, it must lay off people.

Otherwise, I really can't keep running!

Because he received an order for pig farms worth 20 million this year, as well as an order worth 40 million for Chaudley, after removing all expenses, including taxes, up to now, there are less than 20 million left.

Although there is a lot of money for the purchase of equipment, the money is not counted here, such as the expansion of hundreds of sets of machinery and equipment for the bamboo scorpion product workshop, and the purchase of several houses on the market as dormitories for craftsmen, etc. wait wait wait……

But no matter what, he felt the crisis.

A crisis of spending money.

If it is not increasing revenue and reducing expenditure.

I'm afraid that the bamboo stick products workshop will not be able to operate at all.
