Due to the sudden visit of Sun Renli, the village secretary of Huayin Village, the village chief, Zhou Ming and Caitlin went out a little late and did not arrive in Xihua Village until nearly 10 o'clock in the morning.

After yesterday's incident, Li Baohua, the party secretary of Xihua Village, became very alert and began to send people to welcome Zhou Ming at the intersection of the village. And when Zhou Ming and Caitlin arrived at the village, Li Baohua asked with great concern if something happened on the road, or if the people from Huayin Village were still harassing. Li Baohua patted his chest and promised Zhou Ming that if Huayin Village was still harassing, he would not let Huayin Village go.

In fact, Li Baohua's guess is quite accurate. It is indeed because the people from Huayin Village came to find him. However, Zhou Ming did not need to tell him about this kind of poaching matter. In addition, Zhou Ming did not think he had told him that he could really do anything to Huayin Village.

Zhou Ming finally waved his hand and said that there was no problem, so it would be better to build the big rural group first.

Li Baohua nodded and said yes. In fact, this is what they were originally going to do today. Then Li Baohua took Zhou Ming to the conference room of the Steel Pipe Factory Administration Building. Secretary Chen from Beihua Village and the heads of the three enterprises, the Steel Pipe Factory Rolling and Steel Factory Ship Removal Factory, were already waiting here.

Seeing Zhou Ming coming in, Xue Yongjun stood up first. He took a document to Zhou Ming and said, "Mr. Prince Concubine, this is the charter I drove out overnight with the two factory directors yesterday. Look, let us check it."

Zhou Ming took it and sat in his seat. However, Zhou Ming had just opened it and didn't have time to take a closer look, and heard a burst of hurried footsteps outside. Then the door of the conference room was pushed open with force, and the assistant of Director Chen, the shipbreaking yard, ran in in a panic look.

The assistant wanted to tell the factory director quietly, but this was too sneaky, especially in such occasions. Those who didn't know thought they had something shameful about them, so Director Chen asked him to say it out loud.

The assistant then said: "The factory director is not good. Mr. Yang has just taken the entire marketing department to leave the factory!"

Director Chen was a little surprised, obviously feeling confused by his assistant's words. The assistant said that Yang was the marketing manager of his marketing department. Isn't it normal for him to take the marketing department to go out of the factory to inspect the market or something? Why are you so fussy and even go so far to report to yourself.

But then Director Chen realized something: "How did you say Mr. Yang and the others leave?"

"I don't know either. I only know that someone came from Huayin Village just now. They didn't know what they said to President Yang in the office. Later, President Yang took the entire marketing department and the people from Huayin Village to leave!" The assistant said truthfully, "Aunt said that President Yang is very likely to betray us and go to Huayin Village!"

Director Chen immediately slapped the table in anger and said, "What do you want to do, Yang Zhixiong, this bastard? Is it a rebellious thing?"

Xue Yongjun and Steel Rolling Director Li both advised him to calm down, but then Director Li himself couldn't calm down, because someone from the steel rolling factory hurried over and told Director Li that something happened to the steel rolling factory.

Director Li also angrily slapped the table: "What? Someone reported to the environmental protection department about the sewage discharge in our factory? There were also many elderly people at the entrance of the factory who made banners saying that they were noisy because of the production in our factory, so they could not sleep, and asked us to compensate? Where are these troublemakers from? What is the factory security department doing? Drive away all these guys who are troublesome. Do you still have to wait for me to give you orders? Don't you think about it yourself?"

But here he said: "Leader, factory

The Security Department is not not not doing anything, but not daring to do it, because a TV reporter followed him to interview at the factory gate, and it was exposed as soon as he tried!"

Director Li took a breath of air conditioning, and then the two directors of steel rolling and ship dismantling hurriedly apologized to Zhou Ming, saying that today's meeting will be postponed and that they will go back to deal with the matters in the factory first.

Zhou Ming nodded and said there was no problem. The two factory directors and their people left hurriedly.

Seeing them leaving, Xue Yongjun was a little incredible: "Why did such a thing happen at this time? They were too careless."

"They weren't careless." Caitlin suddenly said at this time.

Village Party Secretary Li Baohua and Steel Pipe Factory Director Xue Yongjun were both stunned because they heard Caitlin speak for the first time. They thought that the foreign princess could not speak Chinese. Now it sounds like this blonde and blue-eyed foreign princess seems to be more standard than them.

However, what surprised them more than the foreign princess' Chinese proficiency was Caitlin's words.

"Your Highness Princess, I wonder what you meant if you said it wasn't accidental. Is there any hidden truth behind this matter?" Li Baohua asked.

Caitlin is a standard person who kills and does not care about burying. For this problem, she threw it directly to Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming then told him about meeting the Huayin Village Party Secretary Sun Renli in the hotel, and Sun Renli advised him to go to Huayin Village to be the honorary village chief: "I didn't agree to him, but when he left, he threatened me that the people in the village were not as simple as they looked, so I think now that the market manager left and reported the villagers, it should be Huayin Village's move behind the scenes."

Hearing this, the village party secretary Li Baohua was furious and scolded Sun Renli for being shameless, and even swore that he would never let such a despicable villain go.

"Is there any way Secretary Li?" Zhou Ming asked him ignorantly.

Li Baohua, who had just vowed to take revenge, gradually became embarrassed when facing Zhou Ming's problem.

He scratched his head and laughed: "This also requires long-term planning. After all, Huayin Village is not a small place, and now it is a legal society. We can't find someone who is in a dark place to put sacks on him."

Zhou Ming said to him: "I didn't mean that. I mean that since they can take action against the rolling mill and the shipbreaking mill, then should Director Xue also pay attention to the trends of the steel pipe factory?"

Li Baohua immediately became nervous. He turned to look at Xue Yongjun. He knew that the income in Xihua Village was basically based on the steel pipe factory. If something went wrong with the steel pipe factory, it would be a life-threatening situation.

Xue Yongjun was not reckless. He thought carefully and said: "The situation of our steel pipe factory is different from that of the steel rolling mill shipbreaking plant. Many of the two factories are from Beihua Village, and many of them have relationships with each other. Many people envy Huayin Village for its wealth, so the people from those two factories are easily bribed."

"Just like Mr. Yang from the shipbreaking yard, I heard that I had been very close to Huayin Village since a year ago, and often went to high-end hotels and nightclubs together. I can only say that Director Chen is too vigilant."

Xue Yongjun continued: "As for the rolling mill, I can only say that Beihua Village is too poor, which has led to people there doing everything. Such things as reporting environmental protection issues and tying banners to find reporters are obvious to someone behind the scenes."

"But the situation in our steel pipe factory and Xihua Village is different. First of all, the benefits of our steel pipe factory have always been good, and even Xihua Village has always been relatively wealthy. It is not as good as Beihua Village and Huayin Village. Therefore, even Huayin Village wants to do anything behind the scenes, there is no way to start!" Xue Yongjun patted his chest and said confidently.

However, in the moment, Xue Yongjun said so confidently that the back foot had happened.

Xue Yongjun's office director ran into the conference room in panic and told Xue Yongjun that many masters were going to terminate their contracts with the factory.

"Terring the contract?" Zhou Ming was very surprised by the word "office director", "Are all these workers leaving?"

Xue Yongjun explained to Zhou Ming with a wry smile: "Strictly speaking, these masters are not considered factories, but rather... cooperative masters."

Cooperating Master? What is this strange name?

After Xue Yongjun explained that Zhou Ming realized that with the vigorous reform of state-owned enterprises and laid-off waves in previous years, many workers left the factory and were laid off, but these laid-off workers had no other means of survival. In addition, Xue Yongjun took over the factory and needed many skilled workers to return to the factory to do things.

But the private factory is definitely not as good as the original public units. In addition, these workers have accumulated some capital before layoffs, and the work in the steel pipe factory is not so fine, so some more active masters began to buy machines and open small workshops at home to process some rough work.

This way, not only can you freely use time, but you can take on various factories and private orders, but more importantly, you can also have more money to cooperate with factories than just in factories.

Later, more people saw the benefits of doing this, so more and more workers began to leave the factory, and more and more small family workshops appeared, so that nearly half of the work in steel pipe factories is given to these small workshops.

Of course, Xue Yongjun didn’t know such hidden dangers, but other workers wanted to go out of the factory to work privately. Can you still stop him?

"It seems that I'm too optimistic!"

Xue Yongjun sighed heavily: "In fact, before introducing the German production line, these masters made trouble once. They felt that the introduction of advanced production lines would break their jobs, so they had to threaten them with strikes. But later we knew that they were moved by emotion and added wages to them to coax them, why are they here again now?"

"Is this difficult to understand? Now we want to merge three factories and build a large rural group. These small family workshops will definitely be squeezed out. Now if the people from Huayin Village are inciting them behind their backs, won't they have to make trouble again?"

Li Baohua pointed at Xue Yongjun with helpless expression: "You, why did you feel embarrassed to talk about the steel rolling mill and shipbreaking mill just now? Your butt is not clean yet!"

Xue Yongjun was embarrassed by the village party secretary's words, and he assured the village party secretary that he would find a way to solve the problem.

At this time, Zhou Ming stopped him: "Director Xue, this matter is not busy. I think it is essentially the same problem whether it is the master here, the environmental protection issues in the steel rolling mill, or the senior executives of the shipbreaking yard who lead the team to leave," he said.

"Then... how should we solve it?" Xue Yongjun asked.
