    Scenes similar to those at the Jinling Cement Factory have been staged in the factory area of ??Nanjing.

    "Not only did they not give us wages, we went to the factory to ask for money, and we were beaten by a group of gangsters. Several of us had our hands and feet broken, and we will all be disabled from now on."

    ¡°Those ruffians are really hateful and they only bully honest people like us.¡±

    "There are still people like this in the world. We have worked for them honestly for a year, but they don't pay us. They want us to continue working for them for another year. God knows if we won't be paid again.  , let us work for nothing for two years.¡±

    "Is business not doing well?"

    ¡°You don¡¯t know how good the business is in the factory. We can¡¯t even finish the orders. No matter how much cement is produced, there¡¯s not enough to sell. How can the efficiency be poor?¡±

    24378  ah."

    "Then you have to be careful. This family is not an ordinary big family. Their family is deeply rooted and there are many people in the court. If the trouble continues like this, they might really let the government people take you down.  Arrest them all."

    "Catch him immediately. I don't believe there is no room for reason in this world."

    "That's right, that's right, we have worked hard for a year, and now we don't have a penny, and we can't even eat. It's freezing cold, and we don't have a place to live. This is forcing us to think further.  .¡±

    "That's right~"

    "We workers should unite and unite together, so that the black-hearted bosses can know how powerful we workers are."

    "Yes, yes, we should unite. I heard that they have taken over the Jinling Cement Factory. At least, we have a place to live here."

    This time 75*zh*ongwen.com Zhang Si.  "Let's go, let's go, I'll contact Jinling Textile Factory, you go contact Zeng's Textile Factory, let's unite together and get the wages."

    Workers wandering in the streets gathered together and discussed with each other. They learned that workers in some factories united as one and not only defeated the gangsters, but also occupied the factory. This immediately boosted the confidence of many workers and everyone started to  Start connecting and unite.

    On the other side, on the Qinhuai River, on a large luxurious flower boat, there are singing and dancing birds, wine pools and meat forests. Many big factory owners, big gentry, big families and big businessmen of Jinling City gather together and enjoy a luxurious life.

    "Are we going too far?"

    Zeng Qing took a sip of wine, touched the beauty in his arms, looked in the direction of Jinling City, and said with some worry.

    His family is a businessman family. They have opened several large factories in Jinling City, such as cement factories, textile factories, carriage factories, etc., employing tens of thousands of workers, and the business is very good.

    To be honest, he didn¡¯t really want to cause such a thing with everyone during the Chinese New Year.

    The workers have worked hard for a year and they have earned a lot. It is time to pay the wages to the workers and give them some bonuses and so on, so that everyone can go back and have a good New Year.

    But these big businessmen, big gentry, and big families in the Jiangnan area got together, and after everyone discussed it, they decided not to pay the workers during the Chinese New Year.

    ?On the one hand, I want to get rid of the wages in this way. Labor in the Ming Dynasty is not cheap. A worker earns at least five taels of silver a month, which works out to more than sixty taels a year.

    There are 10,000 to 20,000 workers under my command, and millions of taels of silver will be distributed. If I can get rid of this money, it will undoubtedly be a huge sum of money.

    Nowadays, most factories do not pay wages on a monthly basis. They usually pay wages once a year. Some better ones pay wages once a quarter. Of course, there are also some factories and firms run by Yankees who pay wages once a month.  .

    But most of the factories in Jiangnan only produce once a year.

    Most of the workers have no objections to this, because they usually live and eat in the factory, and there are relatively few places to spend money. If they need money, they can also withdraw some.

    If you pay it once a year, the money will still be in your account, and you won¡¯t be afraid of being stolen. You can take it home together during the Chinese New Year.

    Of course, wasting money is only one of everyone's goals. The real purpose is actually to find a way to drive away Wang Shouren, the chief envoy of Nanzhili.

    Zhida 75zhongwen.com Zhixiao.  The imperial court began to levy commercial taxes. Wang Shouren was originally responsible for tax collection here in Nanzhili, which made these merchants, factory owners, and business owners in Jiangnan very uncomfortable.

    ¡°The Jiangnan area has always been the most opposed to commercial tax. Ever since Liu Jin reformed the tax system and introduced commercial tax, tax collection in Jiangnan has been very difficult.
