Daqin: Signing in at the beginning is ten times the combat power of Lu Bu

Chapter 674 The Formation of Exploitation

It is naturally impossible for managers in high positions to know what the situation at the grassroots level is like.

The key point is that the output of the mine is far from the minimum standard they set. It is clear that at the beginning, their output was much higher than this minimum standard.

They naturally think that it is the workers' own problems.

So then a series of policies were formulated, not only to extend working hours, or to deduct wages from workers who did not meet the standards.

This situation has not lasted for half a month, and the dissatisfied miners have chosen to strike in large numbers.

They are here to work, yes, but they are the people of Daqin, not slaves.

So if they quit, no one can force them to stay.

When they first started to work overload, all these mining workers thought in their hearts, keep going.

The situation has evolved to the current situation, and they all know that if this continues, they will die of exhaustion here sooner or later.

And because a minimum standard is set, and they fail to meet this minimum standard almost every day, their wages are severely deducted.

If they continue to work here, it will not be worthwhile for them.

No one is really stupid, simple accounts, everyone can figure it out.

So after a simple calculation, many workers directly chose to give up this job.

The big deal is that I quit, you can't force me.

In the beginning, only the workers who were really unable to work went on strike.

Later, almost all mining workers followed suit.

Only at this time did the upper-level officials realize the seriousness of the matter.

Now that the matter has reached this point, there is no way to solve it.

Because a large number of workers have already quarreled directly to settle their wages and leave the mine.

At the beginning, managers didn't need to worry about such problems at all, and they were never afraid of such situations.

Because the work of mining sulfur veins requires certain physical strength, but the pay is quite high, and it is considered a good job.

Therefore, the management is not afraid that no one will do the job.

So when these managers first started, they had no fear at all. For them, if you quit, you just leave immediately.

As soon as you walk on the front foot, new miners will come in to make up for it on the back foot.

And the workers are also aware of this, which is why, even when they are working overloaded at the beginning, they will think that even if they work overloaded, they will get paid no less.

They don't do this kind of work, and some people do it.

But in the end, the pay was reduced, but the workload was not reduced at all.

It's not that one or two people can't handle it anymore, a large number of workers are already in a state of being completely unable to handle it.

So when someone started to propose miners, they immediately got the support of many people and joined the strike team together.

This kind of situation didn't just appear in a certain mine, but almost all the mines that mined sulfur veins had this problem.

Until the information reported to Ying Yu was sent from Shu County, more than [-]% of the workers had asked to settle their wages, and they quit.

It wasn't until this time that management realized that things had gotten out of hand.

Now it is still far from the sulfur mine that Ying Yu requested, if at this moment [-]% of the miners choose to strike.

If the remaining sulfur is mined quickly, it will inevitably stagnate. If such a problem arises in their hands, what the emperor personally explained.

Then it's not just a question of how much they can harvest, there may be a great crime befalling.

So they really panicked at this time, and at the same time, the management didn't dare to let these workers go at this time.

Because of their evolution so far, many people have already known their policy. There is a minimum standard for mining veins, and if the standard is not met, wages will be deducted.

And this minimum standard is actually not low at all, it is a very difficult standard to meet.

In addition, almost all the people who can do this job have already joined this job. If they all leave at this time, they will face a situation where no one is available.

So under such circumstances, it is basically impossible to recruit new workers.

In order to stabilize this group of workers, they can only take one way in the end, which is to temporarily stop them from work.

At the same time, their wages are also suppressed in their hands, and they will not be paid.

Because the management knows that under such circumstances, if they directly send out their wages, it goes without saying that these miners must take the money and leave immediately.

At that time, it will not be easy to not recruit them back.

It will cost a lot of money, not to mention for the time being, if it delays the things that His Majesty the Emperor explained.

Then they will lose their jobs from top to bottom, which is the lightest thing.

After receiving this report, Ying Yu sighed inwardly. He really did not expect this situation.

However, this kind of result is actually inevitable. No matter who will do the job, there will be such a stage in the end.

The person who holds the resources at the beginning is the person who can ask for unlimited work for you.

The people I work for you, because they want the resources in your hands, so even if you ask too much, they just get what they want.

Everything is negotiable, and this is the most primitive form of exploitation.

But such exploitation has a limit.

That is the exploited people, and the space they can be squeezed is limited.

When those who hold resources are squeezing those who work for them, the intensity of the squeeze has exceeded the limit they can bear.

If it's just for a short time, it's not a big problem, but if it's a long time.

Those who have been exploited will definitely not continue to be exploited by you, because the rewards they can get from you are also limited.

Under such circumstances, they will weigh the pros and cons, and whether it is worth it.

Then they will inevitably want a balance point, where they can get more rewards, and at the same time, they will not let themselves be squeezed to the limit.

But on the other hand, those who have resources, it is difficult for them to see what kind of situation the oppressed are in.

For them, as long as what they give is enough, the workers should work for themselves.

In the long run, the inevitable result is what is happening in various mines in Shu County now.
