I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 550 Tragic Comedy in Industrialization

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, there is a wave of people returning home again in Nanjing.

A large number of workers refused to work overtime during the Chinese New Year, and set foot on their way back to their hometowns with payment for completion.

Blessed are the people returning to Zhenjiang and Changzhou, they can take the train home.

Although the ticket price is not cheap, many people still buy it.

This is the most fashionable mode of transportation in Dahua. If you have never been on a train before going to Nanjing, how can you brag with the villagers when you get home.

The fare is not particularly outrageous, that is, their ten-day salary, which is a matter of gritted teeth.

Workers in other directions are not so lucky, and can only choose to walk, ride a horse-drawn carriage, or ride a bicycle.

Today's bicycles are not cheap, and most people are reluctant to buy them.

However, not everyone in this world knows about Gu Jia.

There are several young people aged seventeen or eighteen who have saved a year's salary in order to buy a bicycle.

Riding a bicycle and running, that kind of wind-like feeling is worth it.

Several of them were riding bicycles with luggage strapped to the back of the car.

Along the way, when they meet someone, they will press the bell collectively.

Jingle, Jingle, Jingle, I was riding a bicycle and was very happy. Others want to walk, still Laozi cool.

It's not what they said in their hearts, but that's pretty much what it means.

At the moment being watched, they were happy to die in their hearts.

Of course, no one knows if he will be beaten to death by his parents after returning home.

It's a pity that the current atmosphere is not open enough, otherwise, with a girl in the back seat hugging her waist, they will be able to fly to the sky beyond the clouds and side by side with the sun.

Joy, happiness, is the main theme.

However, after magnifying the microscope and observing each individual, you will find that not everyone has a smile on their face.

Compared with last year, this year's Qin Erhu has no smile.

A group of them hired a carriage with two people lying on it.

These are two fellow villagers who followed him to the factory. They were accidentally injured by a machine while working.

A thigh was comminuted and an arm was amputated by a machine.

Both of them have become disabled, and it will become a problem to support themselves in the future, let alone support a family.

Even worse, the factory also said that they were careless and did not follow the rules for the use of the machine to cause the tragedy. Said they caused delays in the factory schedule and lost a lot of money.

Therefore, the factory is only willing to give them a token compensation of ten yuan per person.

Qin Erhu and others naturally refused to agree, but there is no way to go to heaven, and no way to go down to earth.

They didn't know who to turn to for help.

Twenty yuan, which is their annual salary.

If they are not disabled, they can earn it in one year, at least dozens of twenty yuan in this lifetime.

But there is no way, they can't fight the factory boss.

As Qin Erhu, who took them to the factory, his heart was naturally full of self-blame, and he didn't know how to explain to these two families.

With such a disability, it will be difficult to get married and have children in the future.

It can be said that this life is equivalent to ruin.

Qin Erhu has decided to distribute his income this year to these two families, and he will consider it a year for nothing.

This is already the best he can do.

And doing this, I am afraid that this year will be quite difficult for my family.

Things like Qin Erhu's hometown are not an exception.

Because the workers' cultural level is low, the training time is short, and the labor intensity is high. In fact, all major factories have this kind of thing, and there are many more.

In a factory with an average of 1,000 people, there are two to three disabled people a year.

Some shady businessmen pursue production, and the accident rate is higher, five or six.

Moreover, after these people are disabled, only the government-run factories can get higher compensation, which is about one hundred yuan.

And the private factory, hum, can accompany 20 yuan, it is not the worst.

The worst thing is that he didn't get a penny, and then went to sue the official, and finally was dealt with secretly by the black-hearted businessman.

There are mixed societies, collusion between officials and businessmen, and all kinds of problems.

Of course, no matter how dark or tragic the process of industrialization is, it's not really a thing.

Because, before industrialization, the people were even worse.

As long as there is a little famine or disaster, it will be a large area of ​​death, and a few villages and counties will die. Yi Zi and eat is by no means made up to scare people.

Although some of today's workers have suffered tragedies, most of them have benefited from industrialization and gained happiness.

Therefore, the process of industrialization is necessary.

The misfortunes encountered by a few individuals in the process can only be borne by them.

Of course, as money becomes available in the future, Wu Changqing will also set up relevant relief agencies to provide welfare and treatment to the disabled.

The underworld, the collusion between officials and businessmen, also have to take it slow, and gradually deal with and improve.

Now, he can't take care of that much for the time being.

What he has to do is to fight against the selfishness of all beings in the world by himself. This is too difficult.

Qin Erhu returned to the village and continued to perform various ethical dramas.

Obtained the understanding of the A family, and was scolded by the B family,

demanding huge compensation. Qin Erhu's family and Yi's family staged a fight, and the elders in the village judged.

Complaints of Qin Erhu's wife, quarrel between husband and wife, domestic violence incident, help from friend Qin Lin...  

"What are you going to do next year? The factory is so dangerous. Why don't you plant peppers and coriander with me? I planted a few new varieties this year, and the sales are good."

Qin Lin persuaded.

"No, I still have to go to the factory. In fact, as long as you are careful, the factory is not too dangerous. Moreover, I have been sent to the factory for training to learn the manufacture of precision instruments, and I have achieved some success.

By the time I'm assigned to a new department next year, my salary will be doubled. Moreover, I can't take this breath of A Shui and Erzhuzi. It's obvious that they were in a hurry to catch the goods and added too many raw materials to cause the machine failure.

I want to find an opportunity to go to the city to find the official, tell me my grievances, and let the black heart factory close down. "

Qin Erhu gritted his teeth.

He always felt sorry for Ah Shui and Er Zhuzi, but his ability was limited and he had to support his family, so he was really powerless.

He can only hope to find the government, and then let the government come to trial to see if he can get a little more compensation.

"Oh, I know your personality, I'm afraid I can't persuade you, so be more careful yourself."

Qin Lin comforted.

"It's better for you as a kid. You can accompany your mother-in-law every day at home, and you even have a son."

After talking about the sad things, Qin Erhu changed to a festive topic.

"Hey, hurry up, don't you have more than half a month's holiday during the Chinese New Year?"

Qin Lin laughed.

"Difficult, just quarreled, and now ignore me."

Qin Erhu said.

"You, you still have to admit your mistake."
