Late at night, the moonlight was bright and the stars were dazzling.
Su Tianyao came to the door of his big brother's room and reached out to knock, 'Sleeping, brother?'
'Coming.' The sound of response came from inside the house, Su Tiannan opened the door in his formal attire, 'You're still awake?'
'Couldn't sleep, came over to talk to you.' Su Tianyao smiled back.
'Hehe, come in.' Su Tiannan stepped aside.
Su Tianyao stepped into the interior, twisted his head and surveyed the room's furnishings, seeing that this place had not changed much from a few years ago, clean, tidy, without a single piece of superfluous furniture.
The indoor light was slightly dim, the desk in the living room still had sandalwood incense on it, Su Tiannan closed the door and walked to the desktop before lifting the teapot: 'Little brother, the timing of your return this time is not very good, the family has indeed encountered some things, and I am not able to accompany you for the time being, so turn around and let Miao Miao take you out to take you for a spin.'
Su Tianwu bent down and sat on the sofa, paused for a moment and said, 'Big brother, I didn't come to find you to talk.'
Su Tian Nan walked over and placed the teacup in front of him, bent down and asked, 'What's wrong, is there anything else?'
Su Tianyao thought a little bit and returned, 'Just now when you guys were chatting, I listened to the general course of events and had a little idea in my heart.'
Su Tiannan looked at his younger brother with slight surprise, taking the initiative to ask, 'Then tell me, what thoughts do you have.'
'Personally, I feel that the turning point of Second Uncle's case is actually not in the judiciary, even if we spend money and smash our connections, we may not be able to operate this case to a good result.' Su Tianwu said bluntly, 'Since Changqing Company can arrange the District Police Department and City Police Department to understand, it won't easily give you the chance to pry the case. To put it bluntly, when it comes to smashing money, can our family compare to the People's Long Qing Company? So if you want to turn the tables in the judicial department, there is only one condition, that is, power checks and balances power, we unless we can find the relationship that can make the police department listen to us by saying a word, or else the operation will be in vain.'
Su Tiannan rested his left hand on his cheek, stretched his legs, slowly nodded: 'You continue.'
'I have just two summaries on this matter: first, unity of workers is important, eight people shouting may not be listened to, but eight hundred people shouting, the voice is very big. Secondly, I heard you guys say that apart from our Su family being strung up on the Zha Nan side, there are three other families that have also been screwed, so why can't we unite them?' Su Tianyi said with a light frown, 'We don't have the absolute power to stand, then we have to find a way to make the absolute power see us.'
Perhaps influenced by his father, Su Tian'yo was very good at summarising things when he encountered them, he was willing to take complicated things and summarise the most refined points so that he could adjust his thoughts.
In Su Tiannan's heart, he had always taken Su Tianyou as a child, because the latter had gone to school at the age of eighteen, and hadn't been home for several years, so the impression of Tianyou in his heart was still relatively solidified. But at this moment, as he listened to Tianwu's words, he was unexpectedly and unintentionally brought up to speed by the other party, and felt that there was some truth in what he said.
'After your second uncle went in, the hearts of the workers were scattered, they felt that it would be hard for our Su family to survive this, so they were all hiding from things. Not only do these people not support the company, a few foremen even want to take advantage of this juncture when the Su family is in trouble to get us to subcontract the land to them.' Su Tiannan returned with a light frown, 'So uniting them is quite difficult.'
'I don't think it's difficult.' Su Tian Yu smiled and looked at his elder brother, knowing the other party very well in his heart, 'It's just that it might tear your face ... and you're not willing to do that.'
When Su Tiannan heard this, he was once again stunned for a moment.
'Big brother, workers and companies will always rely on profit to form cohesion.' Su Tianwu softly persuaded, 'It's all too normal for there to be exploitation in the middle of interests. If you're not willing to step in and mess this up, then I'll be the villain.'
Su Tiannan fell into deep thought.
'Why don't you make an appointment with the workers and we'll talk first. If we can solve the internal problems, we can find the other three to sit down and talk.' Su Tianyi said again, 'The characterisation of Second Uncle's case could come down at any time, once it is hit with trafficking, then it will be too late for us to think of a solution.'
Hearing this, Su Tiannan slowly got up and said back, 'Alright, I'll make an appointment with the foreman tomorrow.'
'I see that the time is still early, why don't we make an appointment today. Settle it early to avoid a long night.' Su Tianwu surprisingly urged.
'That's fine, then let's make a trip to the goods yard now.' Su Tiannan was thoroughly persuaded.
...
At the headquarters of Changqing Company in ZhaNan District, a fat man in his forties, dressed in a black suit, sat on a spacious leather sofa, stretched his legs, smoked a cigarette and asked, 'What did Su Tiannan say?'
'He asked us to give him another five days.' Lu Feng lethargically paralysed on the sofa, stroking his short hair and said back, 'This kid is not dead set on it, and may still be thinking of operating his dad back from the Police Department side.'
The fat man in the black suit was the boss of Changqing Company, named Li Hongze. And the so-called Cheung Ching Company was also an organisation with a long history, it was called Cheung Ching Gang before the Era, the members of the organisation were all Chinese living overseas, and the organisation had word heads all over the world, but the reputation had been very poor.
'Then why did you promise to give him five days?' Li Hongze asked.
'There are more than a hundred people at the scene, so if you don't promise, you'll have to fight today. Fighting will easily attract attention, and it won't do us any good.' Lu Feng also answered very succinctly: 'The Police Department's old Wang also want to make peace in the middle, we do not need to take the pinch in a hand on the matter with the old Wang to commit more words, he is not, after all, our way of people.'
Li Hongze smiled at the sound: 'Haha, we are the first knife in ZhaNan now do things also use the brain. OK, the company is getting better and better.'
'Big brother, Su Bai Liu Kong these four take, I want half of the plate, okay?' Lu Feng asked smilingly.
Li Hongze picked up the cigarette case and pulled one out of it and threw it to Lu Feng: 'After five years, I'll let you be the first knife in Dragon City!'
'Ok le.'
...
About an hour and a half later, in the second-floor office building of Zha Nan Su Family Yard, more than thirty heads of workers had gathered in the small conference room.
The room was filled with smoke, the sound of exchanging words kept ringing out, and Su Tiannan was sitting on a wooden chair with a grave expression on his face.
'Xiao Nan, these people have been working with the Su family for quite some time, there are no outsiders here, so let's say what we have to say face to face. If the Su family collapses this time, how are you going to arrange for these workers? Will the pensions and labour insurance be affected, and will the bonuses at the end of the year be paid on time?' A leading worker in his forties asked with very blunt words.
'Right, if the Su family hands over the working land to Changqing Company, then how will we deal with these people's labour registration, files and whatnot?' Someone immediately spoke in agreement, and spoke in a more aggressive tone, more or less forcing the issue.
Su Tiannan had not yet opened his mouth to beg for the support of the working class, people were the first to take the bull by the horns. Under the predicament what personal feelings, all seem worthless.
'It's like this, my little brother just graduated and came back, the matter of worker resettlement was given to him by his family.' Su Tiannan pointed to Tian Yu beside himself and said softly, 'I'll listen here, you guys talk to him.'
The crowd sniffed and turned their heads to look at Su Tianwu, seeing that he was young and refined all of a sudden they were all a little dissatisfied.
'He's a kid, and hasn't run a dirty gang business, what can we talk to him about?'
'That's right, a kid, what does he know?'
'...!'
Su Tiannan looked at the crowd, 'I said, I'll just listen here, I won't run.'
It was only when the big guys heard this that they all fell silent.
Su Tianyao waited for the crowd to be quiet before reaching out and holding his glasses, saying politely in his words, 'Then I'll say a few words huh?'
The head of the workers looked at Su Tianyi with cold eyes, either mingling with each other or smoking a cigarette without saying a word.
Su Tianwu took out the information he had just collated in the car and said expressionlessly, 'My elder brother went to the city yesterday and looked for connections over at the police department to talk about it, but the results were less than ideal. To put it simply, it means that my second uncle's case basically doesn't have much room to operate, and if you want to bail out, you have to shell out money and hand over the Su family company's turf. Our family members also discussed it, and they all felt that they couldn't afford to fight with the Changqing company, so they could only pay the land to insure the person.'
The workers didn't even seem to be surprised by this outcome and didn't pick up on it.
'Before handing over the land, our side prepares the termination contract for everyone.' Su Tianyao frowned and said, 'The files, the work registers are all typed back to the individual's hands, the month's salary can be settled, but don't think about the end of the year bonuses. Because it's only the middle of the year, the Management Council side will not settle the year-end bonuses. After the formalities are sent down, the big guys will find their own way out.'
When the crowd heard this, they were suddenly in an uproar.
'What do you mean? Terminating the contract and not caring about our year-end bonuses, on what grounds?'
'Yes, you've terminated the contract, and the files and work registrations are still calling back to the individual, isn't this the same as dismissing us? Isn't our pension and labour insurance money also not guaranteed?'
'Su Tiannan, what do you mean by this? We've been working for half a year, why do we have no bonus at the end of the year? You Su family caused the trouble, why do you let us workers pay for it?'
'...!'
As soon as the workers heard that the Su Family didn't care about them anymore, they immediately exploded.
Su Tian Nan frowned as he looked at the crowd without replying, while Su Tian Yu looked at everyone without a single fluctuation of emotion in his eyes, and softly continued, 'Rats in a sinking ship fall from a tree, the Su Family itself can't protect itself anymore, so there's no way to care about everyone else.'
'You fart! We've been working with the Su family for so long, even if we don't have any feelings, then we must still have friendship, right? Let me tell you, if Elder Su hadn't gone in, he definitely wouldn't have acted like this!' That leading middle-aged man in his forties was almost roaring as he spoke at Su Tianyou.
'Big brother, you are the one who talked about profit first, and then you are also the one who talked about friendship, if you mess up like this, the Su family is also having a hard time.' Su Tianwu smiled back.
'You know sh*t!' The middle-aged man in his forties got up and rushed at Su Tiannan, 'If you want to do things like this, then let's not be reasonable, tomorrow, the few of us with more than two hundred workers will go up to your house and open fire.'
Su Tiannan sighed, lowered his head, and still did not reply.
Su Tianwu held up his glasses and slowly got up, 'You threaten me?'
The worker's head looked at him, 'Get lost, this has nothing to do with you.'
Su Tianyi smiled at the other party, reached out and pulled out a small portion of the workers' information from his bag, and said succinctly, 'The work registration, the files are all in the hands of the company, and your entry and departure are all submitted by the company to the management board. So does this mean ... that if I say you are a regular worker, you are, and if I say you are a temporary worker, you are also?'
The head worker completely froze when he heard this.
'You see, you are shameless, capital can be even more shameless than you.' Su Tianwu put down the information, 'Big brother, do you want to talk about profit now, or talk about friendship?'
The crowd was silent.
Su Tianwu twisted his head to look at the crowd, 'You guys think that the fall of the Su family has nothing to do with you, and that as long as the Sanitation Management Association wants to function properly, then it can't be separated from the workers. But is that actually the case? After the Su family handed over their territory, do you guys think you can still eat the dirty gang's meal? I'm telling you, that's dreaming! Why does Changqing want to screw the Su family? There's only about 30 of us working in the gang, so what's in it for them to mess with us? Wake up! Changqing is after the 800 dirty workers in the Su family. The purpose of the land grab is so that their own people can have work to do, for the sake of monopoly, understand? Families!'
The head worker listened to Su Tianyi's words and thought carefully for a while before sitting in his position with a gloomy face.
'If you don't embrace the group, you're dead.' Su Tianwu pointed at the termination contract on the table and said, 'Whether to sign the contract, or to tide over the difficulties with the Su family, you guys decide for yourselves.'
'What if we can't f*ck*ng fight Changqing Company?' An old man in his fifties, his words were concise as he droned on.
Su Tiannan, who hadn't said anything all along, decisively got up at this moment, pointing at the cargo yard compound and said, 'I, Su Tiannan, will definitely not treat any of you poorly. We can sign a contract that if the Su family goes bankrupt and hands over the property, the existing equipment will go to the workers.'
The interests of the workers at the bottom had always been simple, nothing more than the word life. When these two words were guaranteed, the people would always be docile and would work desperately to contribute to society. But whoever touches these two words unknowingly will be in trouble. So now a lot of commercial giants, are on the face of shouting pro-people, secretly shouting fast cut leeks, cut also have to say a sentence, family people, we will always be together.
Counting history, it has always been so.
Su Tianyao never wanted to confront the workers, he just wanted to take advantage of the situation.
After the end of the negotiations, Su Tiannan sat in the conference room where people had left the building and sighed: 'It's all old faces, it's really not nice to make a scene like this.'
In fact, Su Family's big brother understood everything, it was just that there were some things he was not willing to do.
Su Tianwu sipped his tea and said softly, 'Big brother, after the workers' unity, we need to talk to the other three.'
...
Inside the city.
Su Tian Bei sat in the car holding the phone and said, 'Can you give me two whole rings?'
'Your father is a ringer, and you're a ringer too? What, are you planning to have your whole family die violently?!'
