"Let my mom be laid off?"

This sudden news surprised Lu Yuan a little.

Although laid-offs have long been nothing new in the past year, especially in the past two years, the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, and the reduction of surplus labor is a way for enterprises to reduce the burden and pressure. Just like the Hangzhou Cotton Factory in Chengxiang Town, it was successfully transformed and restructured a few years ago. At that time, a large number of workers were quit, either buying out their work experience and seeking a way out, or they were recruited into private home textile factories such as Jinsheng Home Textiles, Siyu, and Aikos.

Lu Yuan knew that Hangzhou San Cotton Factory had been promoting the reform of state-owned enterprises for more than half a year, and she was calling for streamlining the institutions and reducing the staff every day. The saying of laid-off was spread in their factory, and it was not a day or two.

But when Lu Yuan heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked when he heard this!

He looked at his mother with a sad face and asked, "Mom, is the list of laid-offs set in this factory?"

Wu Xiuqin originally wanted to hide it from Lu Yuan. After all, Lu Yuan works in the second department of sales. She heard from Lu Qingshan that this department is an important department for the factory to implement reforms and add them, and the factory leaders attach great importance to it. She does not want to affect Lu Yuan's work mood and delay the future of her children because of her own affairs.

Now that Lu Qingshan has told the child with a loud voice, Wu Xiuqin has no intention of hiding it. She shook her head and said, "That's not yet. I heard from the stationmaster Wang that this time the factory selected several departments and departments for the laid-off pilot. Our labor protection station, guesthouse, and warehousing department were all circled for the pilot. He said that the superiors had a meeting with the supervisors of their departments, which meant that each pilot department would report two candidates on their own, and then the factory held a meeting to discuss, and finally made a decision. Later, he talked to me and your Aunt Xu, and thought that we both proposed to lay off on their own and he would report it."

Lu Yuan asked again: "Why don't he talk to you and Aunt Xu if he doesn't look for others, so that you two can take the initiative to propose layoffs?"

Wu Xiuqin said: "He said, in the entire labor protection station, I am only your Aunt Xu and I are older. I am forty-seven this year, and your Aunt Xu is just fifty. Anyway, I have not been retired for a few years. Why don't we carry forward our spirit, take the initiative to lay off, reduce the pressure and burden in the factory, and set an example for people in other departments!"

"Bah!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Qingshan on the sofa was angry and scolded: "This damn Wang Da Nao, are you angry? He also knows who recommends on the list, it is all offensive, so he asked your mother to take the initiative to propose layoff. This bastard, when I was in the workshop, I knew that this guy was not a good bird!"

"Okay, stop scolding, isn't this a matter yet?" Wu Xiuqin glared at Lu Qingshan, then pointed to the cigarettes and wine on the side of the coffee table, and said, "That's why you asked me to go to Master Wang's house with me to see if this matter can be adapted. You are still excited. It's better to be in charge of the county magistrate now. Do you don't understand this principle? It's a pity that you watch the Three Kingdoms every day and say that you understand the world. Do you accompany me?"

"No!" Lu Qingshan shook his head firmly and said, "It's okay to go to any house to give gifts, but you just don't go to Wang Danaodai's house! You can't afford to lose that person!"

"You..." Wu Xiuqin was so angry that she trembled all over.

"Not to say that, I'm talking to you and Aunt Xu and asking you two to take the initiative to propose layoffs. Uncle Wang is quite good at picking people." Lu Yuan said suddenly.

Um?

Lu Qingshan and Wu Xiuqin looked at Lu Yuan at the same time.

Lu Qingshan cursed in anger: "Little bastard, which one of you? Wang Dada made your mother lay off, and you still think he is right, right?"

"Dad, don't be anxious first," Lu Yuan sat on the sofa and explained patiently to Lu Qingshan. "Stand in his position, the factory leaders asked the factory leaders to recommend two laid-off positions. Can they still object? Now everyone in the factory knows that our San Cotton Factory is carrying out reforms. If he dares to oppose the reform policies implemented by the leaders above, do you believe it or not? The first one to be laid-off is him. Although there are more than a dozen people in the entire labor protection station, he only found his mother and Aunt Xu and asked them to take the initiative to propose laid-offs. It was a bit treacherous and slick, but he did not find the wrong person. Do you think, my mother is forty-eight and Aunt Xu and fifty. Do you think how many years will they have to retire?"

Lu Qingshan said: "What's the point? Based on the age of retirement in the factory in previous years, your mother has been retiring for six or seven years."

According to the retirement years of the factory in previous years, men work until they are 60 years old and women work until they are 55 years old, and lesbians can retire. Generally speaking, lesbians can retire at the age of fifty to fifty. In the past few years, there was a policy that children could take the shift. Many people retire at the age of fifty and let their children go to work in the factory. Some people are in poor health and choose to apply for retirement at the age of fifty. Of course, some people are wealthy and do not want to continue working in the workshop, and they also choose to retire at the age of fifty. But like Wu Xiuqin, who has always been in good health, and their family income depends on his and Lu Qingshan's monthly salary. If they don't work until their retirement years, how can they be willing to retire early?

"Yes, if he doesn't look for employees like my mother and Aunt Xu, would he still go to find young people in his twenties to convince them to lay off their jobs?" Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"I care who he is looking for? Whoever he likes to look for!" Lu Qingshan was so angry that he re-slapped the cigarette box in his hand on the coffee table.

Lu Yuan thought deeply and said, "Dad, mom, in my opinion, the factory reforms must continue to be deepened, and layoffs and layoffs will inevitably happen. If there is a first group of laid off this time, there will be a second group and a third group... Look at the Hangzhou Er Cotton Factory in Chengxiang Town, how brilliant it was back then, it won't be..."

"What are the laid-offs one after another? Just say something unlucky! Can Hangzhou No. 2 Cotton Factory be compared with our Third Cotton Factory? Our Third Cotton Factory has been through ups and downs for decades, but we have never seen the roof leaking!" Lu Qingshan said disdainfully.

Wu Xiuqin, who was standing on the sofa, also felt that it was not a good thing. She frowned and asked Lu Yuan angrily: "Son, you know what you mean, do you still hope that your mother will agree and take the initiative to lay off and set an example?"

"Don't be a model like this!" Lu Qingshan also smiled angrily: "Our Lu family has been a model worker in the city since your grandfather. I have been an outstanding employee in the factory. In 1998, the Yangtze River flood control, and the factory called on employees to donate money to support the disaster area. Our family donated 300 yuan at once and became a model donation in the factory. However, our family just can't be a model for laying off!"

"Okay, okay, you are a child, don't interfere with adult affairs, go to your class well."

Wu Xiuqin waved her hand and said to Lu Yuan: "Your mother has planned everything, and she will earn six or seven years of salary steadily, and then she will help you take care of the children when she retires. Now I suddenly let me lay off early, what should I do? It is impossible to lay off for laid off. I have no objection to whom I laid off, but if you let your mother be laid off, I have to ask the factory leader. Wu Xiuqin, I entered Hangzhou Sanmian Mian in my twenties, and I dedicated my youth to the factory. Why do I need to lay off my job?"

"Yes, my wife, tough! I just need this kind of confidence!" Lu Qingshan couldn't help but give a thumbs up and praised.

Wu Xiuqin rolled her eyes and cursed: "When Wang's house, are you still accompanying me?"

"I... I'll go with you!" Lu Qingshan stood up from the sofa, patted his butt, and said, "I don't believe it anymore. He came out of the same workshop as me. I won't sell this little face to me. Humph, no one can lay off the job and can't ask my wife to perform surgery, right?"

"Then carry things and leave quickly!"

Wu Xiuqin looked at the wall clock on the wall and muttered, "It's almost nine o'clock!"

Lu Qingshan responded, picked up the red bag containing cigarettes and wine, and went out with Wu Xiuqin happily.

Hang Lu Yuan directly on the sofa.

Lu Yuan stared at his parents' appearance of zither and sound, hey, this is getting reconciled again...

However, the matter of layoffs has always been lingering in his mind and cannot be removed.

He used to listen to the factory doing deepening reforms, but he felt that these things were far away from him. But today, my mother's incident made him feel that reforms are so close to him.

...

The next day is Saturday and weekend.

He woke up naturally when he got up. It was already ten o'clock when he got up. His parents left the house early in the morning, but he left him breakfast.

He was about to heat up the porridge when the mobile phone was charged in the bedroom rang. The waveguide phone is really the fighter in the mobile phone. The ringtone is really loud and can be heard clearly in the living room.

It's an unfamiliar number.

He picked it up, and a man's voice came from his phone: "Hey, Lu Yuan, guess who I am?"

"I can't guess who are you?" Lu Yuan really couldn't guess this voice.

"You open your window and look downstairs!"

Lu Yuan said oh, walked to the windowsill with his cell phone, opened the curtains and opened the window, poked his head out and looked downstairs. There was a young man wearing a plaid shirt, tilted his head, holding the phone in one hand and waving his hand to Lu Yuan.

"Did you recognize who I am?" asked the voice from the phone.

"Mao Daqing?"

Lu Yuan recognized it. Although he didn't play much with him after going to college, Mao Daqing hasn't changed much since he graduated from high school.

"Hehe, it seems that you guy hasn't forgotten me, my best friend in high school, and you haven't expanded even after going to college." Mao Daqing teased on his phone.

Lu Yuan said: "Stop talking nonsense. When did you come back? Are you not in Yiwu?"

"I went home last night. Hey... you won't take a cell phone with me. I raised my head downstairs, and you leaned upstairs, just talk like that, right?" Mao Daqing said.

Lu Yuan also found it funny and waved to him and asked him to come up.

Mao Daqing shook his head and said, "I won't go up. You can come down. I'll invite you to have a cold drink. It's just right to tell you something."

"Yeah, okay, I'll change my clothes and get off."

Lu Yuan hung up the phone and closed the window.

Five minutes later.

He saw the high school best friend Mao Daqing downstairs whom he hadn't seen for many years.

"You boy is getting more and more handsome. Ermao said, you are doing well now." Mao Daqing waved his fist and gently beat Lu Yuan's left shoulder.

"On average, little handsome, don't dare to be a big handsome."

Lu Yuan replied with a smile, looking at Mao Daqing in front of him, there was no change, he was still thin and tall.

However, the dressing was getting more and more sexy. He was wearing a plaid shirt, with earrings, and his hair was dyed burgundy. As soon as he saw this hair, Lu Yuan remembered that when he was in high school, the kid was ordered to cut his hair into a small flat head by his teacher because of dyeing his hair. Now that he has left the school, no one cares about him, and he gets what he wants, and he will dye whatever color he wants.

When Mao Daqing saw Lu Yuan looking at him, he exaggeratedly spread his hands and smiled: "Do you think your buddy is getting more and more fashionable now?"

"Don't feel it."

Lu Yuanle said: "Your red head, paired with such a floral shirt, looks like a flower magpies. When you walk on the road, aren't you afraid of being watched?"

Mao Daqing said without caring at all: "Walking on the street is not called onlookers, it is called turning back!"

"All right……"

Lu Yuan asked, "You said you were asking me for something, what are you talking about? You are not at my house and you have to go outside to talk about it. It's so grand."

Mao Daqing said: "Let you work hard to do business together."

"The business you mentioned at a low price to get cotton yarn last time?"

Lu Yuan remembered that he mentioned it once on QQ, but he refused it. It was lower than the market price and could not get it at all.

Mao Daqing shook his head and said, "Cotton yarn is the old almanac business. I'm talking about the computer business."

"What computer business?"
