.”

"What is Li Weimin doing?" Li Weimin also works in the iron factory and was once an employee of Ansu.

"The factory implements a segmented responsibility system, and he and a group of people contracted the oxygen production station.

I went to the factory today to settle the bill.

It is said that the factory wants to pay for the cement to support the oxygen. Depending on the situation, our boss will have to pay for it.

Isn’t it nonsense to give away cement on top of the bill and no one wants it?”

After leaving Li Baogen's house, Ansu went to Wu Cunguang's house.

Wu Cunguang is a steelworker. He is 26 this year and not yet married. He is the eldest child in the family, with two brothers and one sister.

Wu Cunguang's brother and sister are both married, but his second brother only got married in the first half of the year.

Wu Cunguang's father passed away. When he was still alive, he was an electrician in the factory. A few years ago, he died from an electric shock while repairing equipment. The factory gave Wu Cunguang a 5,000 yuan solitary payment and then arranged a formal job for Wu Cunguang.

When Ansu arrived at Wu Cunguang's house, Wu Cunguang's second sister-in-law said that her mother-in-law lived downstairs.

Ansu returned downstairs and met Wu Cunguang's mother Liu Guiqin in the shed built in front of Tongzi Tower.

The old lady is over 60 years old. Her clothes are dirty and her hair is disheveled.

Ansu handed the 800 yuan that Wu Cunguang brought to the old lady. The old lady's reaction was a little slow. After Ansu explained for a long time, she realized that the money was given to him by his old son.

She shakily took out a package from her rag, and then took out a bankbook. While showing it to Ansu, she said: "His aunt, I saved all the money for Yao Wazi, and Er Wan came to me to ask for it."

If you want, I won’t give you a cent.

This is what Yao Wa earned, so he has to save it to become a wife for Yao Wa."

When Old Man Wu died on the job, Ansu had seen Liu Guiqin, but he never imagined that he was like this now, looking like a beggar.

Ansu couldn't help but shed tears. He held the old lady's hand and said, "Sister, Xiao Wu is taken care of by me outside. You can spend the money as you should, but you can't lose your life.

You can't live here, it's getting colder now, we have to live in a house."

Liu Guiqin declined and said: "There is no room for me upstairs, hey... I have committed an evil act and gave birth to four babies.

With the consolation money given by the old man when he died, I married the eldest daughter-in-law, and when the second son got married, I could only give him the house.

There is a single boy left, and when I get him a wife, I can just find a place where no one is and hang him up."

Ansu said firmly: "No, you can't live here. What if something happens to you? I have to take care of this matter."

Ansu pulled Liu Guiqin and walked out. Liu Guiqin said, "We agreed when we got married that I would live outside. I am fine here.

You can't argue with your wife. At my age, I can die anywhere."

Ansu became anxious: "We won't make trouble with them, let's rent a house! You must listen to me, the money will come from the factory!"

You have to save your health. Otherwise, if I go back and tell Xiao Wu about your situation, how can he still go to work?

He is worried that our factory's production will also be affected. What do you think we should do?

That’s it, let’s rent a house outside and you can pack your belongings.”

After being dragged and pulled, and threatening to fire Wu Cunguang, Liu Guiqin was allowed to leave the utility room.

It took a day of looking at the house and negotiating the rent to get Liu Guiqin settled.

After that, Ansu went to those ten more houses, each of which had its own difficulties.

On the third day, a deputy director of the iron factory came to visit.

The deputy factory director's name was Su Tiemin. He said to Ansu: "Sister, you have found a good way out. Why don't you take us all there? We really can't keep this mess at home."

Wang Tiemin was promoted during the reorganization of the factory's leadership team the year before last. Ansu also had the opportunity to join the leadership of the iron factory, but she was concerned about her status and chose to be laid off.

In other words, Ansu, including the employees dispatched to Far East Metallurgy, are already laid-off workers at the iron factory.

Wang Tiemin said that the new leadership team is quite conscientious. Last year's output, output value, sales revenue, and capital recovery rate all increased significantly. Without taking into account loan interest and capital costs, it was considered a turnaround, with profits and taxes reaching more than 31 million yuan.

The current ironworks insist on "no payment, no delivery" to avoid the creation of new accounts receivable. They are actively seeking support from the financial sector to speed up the cleanup of "triangular debts", and have settled accounts of more than 30 million through mutual debt settlement and other methods.

By paying debts in kind, the total value of materials such as cars, cement, daily necessities, etc. was exchanged for 150 million yuan.

Hearing this, Ansu asked: "Don't rub smoke powder on your face. I heard that there is something wrong with the cement that pays for it?"

Wang Tiemin did not hide anything: "Hey... I used it to pay for the debt. Where can I find good things? The cement is stuck and needs to be smashed when used. It cannot be used to build buildings. It can only be sold to rural areas.

The common people built bungalows and used them as pig pens.

There is nothing we can do. Even things like this must be snatched up as soon as possible, otherwise the debt will be wasted if it is too late.

There are more than 200 cars, and the average conversion price for each one is 200,000. In fact, it is not worth 50,000.

At the beginning of this year, in accordance with the requirements of the Economic and Trade Commission, we implemented Hansteel's experience and implemented a segmented subcontracting system. Each process of the factory was treated as an independent unit, and internal transfer prices were simulated and determined based on market prices. We also implemented a 'cost veto'

' method, but it cannot solve the market problem.

Our burden is too heavy. The factory has calculated that by the first half of the year our debt reached 1.3 billion.

In addition, our reputation is too bad. If we don’t lower the price of the same product, we will be rejected.

To be honest, I was entrusted by the leaders of the factory to come here this time. Please consider that we have worked together for many years and help us find a way. These more than 3,000 people can no longer live like this."

Ansu's heart was disturbed by the trip home.

She found a way for the laid-off workers to make money, but the workers were far away from home and could not be taken care of by their families. How could they have both?

How could Hanjiang Iron Works clean up this mess? She originally wanted to escape from the Iron Works and ignore it, but Wang Tiemin finally said that he was here on behalf of the more than 3,000 people in the factory.

Wang Tiemin used to be the director of furnace No. 2, and was only a few years younger than Ansu.

When leaving, Ansu clearly saw the tears welling up in the other person's eyes.

A few days later, Ansu went to Yanjing to visit her father and expressed her anxiety. She wanted to help the iron factory solve its dilemma, but was unable to do so.

Mr. An looked at his daughter carefully and said: "How can there be a way to have both in this world? This is also the price that needs to be paid for reform.

The Hanjiang Iron Works has been struggling for decades. The longer it goes on, the heavier the burden becomes. I think it will not be destroyed or established in the end.

Our family is known as a "law-abiding household". In the past, when you worked there, I couldn't express my opinion; now that I have stepped down, I can't interfere in local affairs.

But I still want to remind you that you are leading a donkey to look for a donkey, and you have lost your mind."

Ansu was a little confused: "Dad, don't play riddles with me. Why am I leading the donkey to find the donkey?"
