Courtyard House: Starting as an engineer, crushing a yard full of poultry

"Silly Zhu, which girl are you eyeing now? Are you trying to curry favor with her?"

"It's a pity, you're not a full-time employee yet."

"That's right, even their own jobs are unstable."

Xu Damao was the first to speak, which caused everyone to burst into laughter and mock He Yuzhu.

"Alright, is everyone done with their work? Everyone, get back to work. Wait a minute when we're done, I have something to announce."

Li Xiangdong frowned as he looked at the chaotic scene.

Once he had a plan in mind, he immediately went to announce it (Zhao said Zhao).

At the end of the workday, no one dared to leave the workshop.

Li Xiangdong's prestige in the workshop now surpasses that of some so-called leaders.

"Today we are announcing a matter of discipline."

Li Xiangdong appeared, and under the gazes of everyone, he stood in front of them.

"Discipline? What does that mean?"

"Ugh, is this guy crazy?"

Xu Damao spoke with great dissatisfaction, for him, Li Xiangdong was his nemesis.

Otherwise, why would this guy pop up when I'm clearly missing something?

And yet, we insist on using such a situation to warn about these things? Wow.

Chapter 309 Workshop Reform

"Simply put, you must be at work on time and can only leave when it is time to leave work."

"In other words, you cannot leave your post prematurely."

"Furthermore, when you're on duty, you have to do your job and you can't do things that aren't relevant."

"Especially some people bring their family matters to work, which is really wrong!"

Li Xiangdong was not affected by the noise and immediately announced all the rules.

"What are the penalties for violations?"

Someone in the audience immediately spoke up, shouting and asking questions.

"We now implement a system of equal pay and penalties, rewarding merit and punishing demerit; this is the basic principle."

"If anyone violates this rule, they will be punished accordingly."

"As for the rules for fines, and everything else that follows, they shall be applied accordingly."

As Li Xiangdong spoke, he had someone bring out a piece of paper that had already been written on.

Regulations have been established regarding the matters that were just announced.

The lowest score is no more than five points, but 727 is, and the highest score is uncapped.

As for rewards, they are based on a positive attitude and the degree to which the work is completed, starting with five points and having no upper limit.

In short, Li Xiangdong put everything he knew into practice in order to demonstrate his commitment to the rectification work.

Of course, such rules always bring joy to some and sorrow to others.

Especially those who are usually proactive at work are generally well-liked.

After all, this means that the rules are not entirely the same as before.

As long as it's something you do yourself, whatever you get belongs to you.

In other aspects, Xu Damao and others were quite dissatisfied.

In my previous jobs, I would just follow others and get by. No matter how much I accomplished, I was guaranteed to receive my monthly salary.

But now, all of these wishful thinkings have been shattered.

"There is another very important reform that I must announce, and that is the introduction of the contract worker system."

"In other words, in addition to our factory's regular employees and interns, we are recruiting people from the community who are truly capable but haven't yet joined the factory."

"Anyone with the ability to improve will receive equal pay for equal work. We will also reward anyone who makes any technological innovations."

"Of course, the rewards for this part need to be even higher. There are too many people stagnating in this circle, and someone needs to dismantle it!"

Li Xiangdong spoke coldly, fully understanding the principle that one monk carries water, two monks share the burden, and three monks have no water to drink.

The only way to change this is to get everyone involved.

Only in this way can we prevent people from being unwilling to work or make an effort because they feel that they will receive the same pay for doing more or less work.

Such words immediately sparked a noisy uproar.

Whether they were rigid in their thinking or forward-thinking, everyone was affected by this situation.

Some people looked gloomy and lamented that the good days were over.

Others, however, began to loudly proclaim these benefits (cgcb).

Some are happy while others are sad; explaining such a situation is no easy task.

Li Xiangdong didn't linger, after all, he was just announcing the rules, not listening to other people's opinions and then doing whatever he wanted.

On the way back, Li Xiangdong discovered that Banggeng was carrying a chicken in his arms and was running desperately towards the depths of an alley.

Since Li Xiangdong knew that this kid had always had a habit of stealing chickens and dogs, he didn't pay too much attention to it.

As soon as Li Xiangdong stepped into the courtyard, he heard Lou Xiao'e shouting.

"Damn it, you son of a bitch! I bought these chickens to nourish my family, are you trying to steal them?"

When Lou Xiao'e was arguing, she was facing the direction of Qin Huairu's house.

"I said, what exactly do you want? Just because my family cooked a chicken, you keep cursing. What's the meaning of that?"

Qin Huairu ignored it, after all, she was pregnant.

Madam Jia was furious and immediately started yelling and cursing.

"Your family? Haha, that's really funny. Do you even have the money to buy chickens?"

"I bought this to nourish Xu Damao, but it ended up in your pot. What do you have to say about that?"

Lou Xiao'e was also very dissatisfied and started shouting and cursing.

Lou Xiao'e really went to great lengths to buy this chicken.

But for the sake of harmony in their own family, and for the sake of Xu Damao's health, they were willing to make the sacrifice.

But little did they expect that the chicken they bought, which had been sitting on the counter, would disappear the moment they turned around.

As luck would have it, Qin Huairu's family had stewed chicken. How could they not be suspicious?

Although Qin Huairu was pregnant, everyone knew about her family's situation.

How could someone possibly have spare money to buy this chicken to stew?

So Lou Xiao'e expressed her dissatisfaction with the fragrant stewed chicken in the pot and shouted angrily.

Not wanting to be taken advantage of, Jia Zhangshi naturally retaliated with insults.

These kinds of things were commonplace for everyone in the courtyard.

If they don't make a fuss, it seems like these people don't know how to live their lives.

Chapter 310 Stealing Chickens with Sticks

“You’ve drained Xu Damao dry; nothing you do can help.”

"And besides, we bought this chicken ourselves."

"Don't think that only your family is rich, my family is too!"

"Don't always judge people with outdated views. I'll also work in a factory, as a contract worker, understand?"

"Even my dog, Bang Geng, will be able to come then. Just wait and see how my family lives on fish and meat every day!"

Jia Zhangshi also started shouting, her face full of arrogance.

She didn't spend any money at the hospital; instead, she bought a chicken.

Of course, it wasn't for Qin Huairu's health, but entirely for his own enjoyment.

Li Xiangdong was stunned. He hadn't expected that the news would spread even faster than he had. Now, it was common knowledge in the courtyard.

"I don't care, you stole my chicken!"

Lou Xiao'e ignored all advice and ran towards Jia Zhangshi's house, shouting as she went.

Lou Xiao'e moved extremely quickly, rushing into the kitchen. Seeing the chicken stewing in the pot, she was about to take it away.

"Put the pot down!"

Jia Zhangshi rushed over and blocked Lou Xiao'e in one fell swoop.

"Mom, what's going on now?"

Qin Huairu was weak and resting in bed. Hearing the commotion outside, she leaned against the wall and came out.
