Chapter 426 Strike
After leaving Bin University, Lu Ye went straight back to the sales station.
As soon as he got off the car, Lu Ye felt something was wrong.
In the past, during working hours, the doors of their sales stations were always open to facilitate customers’ entry and exit.
But at this moment, the door of the sales station was closed.
Lu Ye frowned slightly and reached out to open the door of the sales station.
There should have been a receptionist in the lobby, but now the lobby was empty, with no one there.
"We want fair treatment! We reject labor exploitation!"
"That's right! We will not give up until our demands are met! We will resolutely fight this injustice to the end!"
"Fight to the end!"
The bustling shouts echoed throughout the corridor.
Lu Ye frowned slightly. Obviously, the strike that Goudan mentioned had already begun.
"Where are the people?" Lu Ye shouted loudly as he walked into the hallway.
Tata...
A burst of hurried footsteps was heard, and Li Mingzhu's figure quickly ran to the hallway.
"Brother Lu, there's a commotion in the sales department!" Li Mingzhu said in a deep voice without any unnecessary nonsense.
What happened today was already expected by Lu Ye and the others, so neither Li Mingzhu nor Lu Ye was surprised.
"The people in the sales department are on strike. Su Yunjie and Zhou Yan are mediating in the sales department, and the people in the retail department are in the showroom." Li Mingzhu continued.
Lu Ye nodded after hearing this.
It is right to separate the retail staff from the sales department people.
"Who's leading?" Lu Ye asked.
"It was Cao Dehua. He was the one shouting the loudest. Gu Shun was there too, but he just sat there without saying a word and didn't care about anything," said Li Mingzhu.
Cao Dehua is a member of Gu Shun's team. If he doesn't care, he is already tacitly approving of Cao Dehua's actions.
If you don't stand up, you're leaving it for later.
This old guy is quite a thief.
"Let's go to the sales department." Lu Ye said in a deep voice.
Li Mingzhu followed Lu Ye, and the two soon arrived at the sales department office.
The shouting here is also louder.
"Let President Lu come out and give us an explanation! Why can't we participate in retail? We built the sales station brick by brick, and we worked hard to build it to its current scale. Now, with just one order and one adjustment, he's leaving us without a job. We won't accept it!"
"Yes, let Mr. Lu come out and give us an explanation!"
Cao Dehua shouted loudly, and others kept echoing him.
Su Yunjie was standing in the sales department, looking at these angry salespeople with a similarly grim expression.
If Lu Ye hadn't told him in advance and let him be mentally prepared, Su Yunjie would have been furious.
But even though he was prepared, Su Yunjie still couldn't help but grit his teeth when he saw these people holding banners and going on strike.
"You guys are so ungrateful! You've forgotten who gave you jobs and made you earn what others would take years to earn!"
"It's bad enough that you don't make progress now, but you actually blame all the problems on others. You are simply shameless!" Su Yunjie cursed with gritted teeth.
Zhou Yan didn't expect that among the people causing trouble were two people from her group.
Look at Dong Fangfang and Chen Ting, standing next to Cao Dehua, with their fists raised high.
Zhou Yan said in a deep voice:
"Dong Fangfang, Chen Ting, what are you two doing? How have you been treated unfairly by the station? How have I treated you unfairly?"
"You have no resources, so I accompanied you to run business, but in the end, you still do this. Who are you being worthy of?"
When they heard Zhou Yan's question, Dong Fangfang and Chen Ting both blushed.
"Don't listen to her! She's making the most money now and she's the deputy manager. Of course she's on Mr. Lu's side! Why would she care about the lives of us?"
Seeing that Dong Fangfang and Chen Ting were wavering, Cao Dehua spoke hurriedly.
Dong Fangfang and Chen Ting looked at each other, then looked at Gu Shun not far away, and then no one paid any attention to Zhou Yan, still standing firmly beside Cao Dehua.
Bang~!
Lu Ye pushed open the door of the sales department.
"I heard someone calling me out. Who was it?"
After entering the room, Lu Ye's aura was fully open, and his eyes were as sharp as a falcon, piercing everyone present.
Some timid people did not dare to face Lu Ye's gaze and lowered their heads.
The momentum of the striking crowd suddenly dissipated.
Gu Shun narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw Lu Ye.
Seeing that everyone's momentum was weakening, Gu Shun hurriedly winked at Cao Dehua.
Cao Dehua understood what he meant, and bravely met Lu Ye's gaze, continuing to shout, "It's me. The sales station is unfair, so of course we have to resist!"
"Why aren't we allowed to do retail? We don't accept it!"
"You must give us an explanation today, otherwise we will go on strike!"
"Yes, if you don't give us an explanation, we will go on strike!" Wu Fei also echoed.
The others looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.
At this moment, there are three clearly divided groups in the sales department.
One group includes Lu Ye, Su Yunjie and others, and the other group includes Cao Dehua, Wu Fei and others who are on strike.
Another group is the newcomers in the sales department. Most of them don’t know what is going on and can only watch from the outside.
Goudan was also among these people, but did not participate in the strike.
Lu Ye looked at the people who were on strike in the house. In addition to the staff Goudan told him, there were also a few salesmen who were recruited later.
When these people get together, the noise they make is quite loud.
"Do you think you deserve an explanation from me?"
Lu Ye's face was gloomy. He ignored Cao Dehua, a small fry, and looked directly at Gu Shun.
He said coldly: “Deputy Manager Gu, these people are basically from your team. Is this how you become a deputy manager?”
Gu Shun didn't expect Lu Ye to call his name directly.
"Mr. Lu, I can't stop them if they want to make trouble." Gu Shun looked helpless.
Seeing this, Cao Dehua hurriedly shouted, "It has nothing to do with Manager Gu. We are the ones who want justice!"
"You exploit us, and we will resist!"
Hearing this, Lu Ye sneered and looked at Su Yunjie and said directly, "Manager Su, bring over your sales department's performance report."
Upon hearing this, Su Yunjie quickly returned to his office and handed the sales department's performance report to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye opened it directly and found the page about Cao Dehua.
"Cao Dehua, you were away 24 days this month and rested 4 days. Your transportation and communication expenses were reimbursed... a total of 36 yuan. Sales: Zero! Tracked active customers: Zero."
Lu Ye read it out loudly in front of everyone.
"I want to ask you, how did you manage to reimburse so much money when you had zero valid customers? 36 yuan, that's enough for a normal worker's monthly salary, right?"
Lu Ye questioned.
False reporting and over-reporting are commonplace in sales.
Lu Ye turned a blind eye to this and reimbursed the money as long as it was not too excessive.
So when Lu Ye read out this data, everyone in the room knew very well that Cao Dehua must have lied about the 36 yuan and put it directly into his own pocket.
Cao Dehua felt uneasy when he was questioned by Lu Ye.
"Well... I... even if I didn't find any valid clients, I still went there. I made a lot of calls. I even have tickets."
Lu Ye snorted disdainfully.
"You know clearly in your heart which ones are true and which ones are false."
"If you don't understand the law, I can explain it to you."
"Deceiving the company by making false claims is a crime of fraud and can result in a fine or even a prison sentence."
"Do you dare to say that those bus tickets you handed in can withstand inspection?"
"If you dare to say anything right now that you can guarantee is true, I will call the police to investigate immediately!"
