Reborn in 79, the educated youth wife regretted her divorce.

Chapter 167 Troublesome

"President Chu, can you make this decision?" someone shouted. "If you can't, call Jiang Yang here! We'll talk to the boss ourselves!"

Others joined in loudly, and the scene nearly spiraled out of control.

Chu Lan looked at the group of indignant workers in front of her and felt a surge of anxiety.

If this gets out of hand, it'll be hard to handle!

"Dazhuang! Dazhuang!" Chu Lan hurriedly called out towards the outside of the crowd.

A burly man squeezed in: "Mr. Chu, what's the matter?"

"Quick! Drive to the school and pick up Jiang Yang!" Chu Lan's voice trembled slightly.

Dazhuang dared not delay and turned to run.

With the roar of the engine, Dazhuang drove the car out of the factory like an arrow.

Soon, he picked up Jiang Yang and headed back.

On the way, Dazhuang briefly reported what had happened at the factory to Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang frowned after hearing this.

Things were more complicated than he had imagined.

He had to come up with a perfect solution as soon as possible, one that would both appease the workers and ensure that the development of "Yangxin" would not be affected.

"squeak--"

A screeching sound of brakes rang out, and the two returned to the factory.

Jiang Yang was stunned by the huge crowd of people in front of him as soon as he got off the bus.

"Oppose the introduction of assembly lines!"

"We have to work!"

"We want to eat!"

The workers' slogans rose and fell, deafeningly loud.

They surged toward Jiangyang like a tide, surrounding him completely.

Jiang Yang took a deep breath, raised his hands, and gestured for everyone to be quiet.

"Quiet down, everyone! Quiet down!" Jiang Yang shouted at the top of his lungs. "Listen to me! Listen to me!"

But the workers were too agitated to listen to him.

"Quiet! All of you, be quiet!" Jiang Yang's voice rose eight octaves, almost roaring.

It took him a tremendous amount of effort to quiet the noisy crowd.

Although the workers stopped shouting, they still glared angrily at Jiang Yang, as if they wanted to devour him alive.

Jiang Yang looked around, his gaze sweeping over every angry face.

I must get the situation under control as soon as possible.

"I know everyone is worried about losing their jobs after the assembly line is introduced," Jiang Yang said in a calm and firm voice. "But there are so many people here today, it's too chaotic. So, who's going to take the lead? Step forward, let's have a talk. Arguing like this won't solve anything, don't you think?"

At this moment, all the workers' eyes turned to several workers with particularly prominent figures in the crowd.

With everyone's attention focused on them, the group exchanged glances and reluctantly stepped forward.

Jiang Yang's gaze swept over the group of people one by one, finally settling on a worker who appeared to be the leader.

This man was in his thirties, with a square face and a fierce appearance; he looked like someone not to be trifled with.

"Was it you guys who spearheaded this?" Jiang Yang's voice turned cold.

The workers looked at each other, and the one with the square face stepped forward, stiffening his neck as he said, "Yes, it's us! We're all doing this for everyone's good!"

"Yes! We're thinking of everyone's best interests!"

Several people nearby echoed his sentiment.

Why do people think that everyone will lose their jobs?

Jiang Yang tried his best to make his tone sound as calm as possible.

He knew that at this point, even the slightest mistake could escalate the conflict.

"Stop pretending to be confused!" The square-faced man glared angrily. "The factory is going to buy foreign machines. One machine can do the work of dozens of us. What will we be needed for then?"

"Exactly! We've all heard about it, the factory is going to buy something... a production line!"

"At that time, we'll all have to pack our bags and get out!"

"We won't agree!"

……

Several workers started talking at once, getting more and more excited, and the workers behind them were also swayed.

Suddenly, Jiang Yang smiled.

His laugh stunned the workers.

"You've got it wrong." Jiang Yang waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet. "'Yangxin' will not only not lay off anyone, but in the future, there's a high chance we'll give you all a raise!"

The workers looked at each other, their faces filled with disbelief.

A raise?

These days, just keeping your job is a blessing, let alone getting a raise?

Is this boss talking in his sleep?

"You guys are really something..." Jiang Yang looked at the group of honest workers in front of him and was filled with emotion. "Let me tell you the truth, our 'Yangxin' will soon be opening a second, or even a third, factory!"

Jiang Yang raised his voice: "By then, your current number of people won't be enough! We will not be laying off any more employees!"

Chu Lan quickly chimed in, "Comrades, our company has already signed tons of orders from overseas! Our women's clothing is selling like hotcakes abroad; demand far exceeds supply!"

She looked around, her tone becoming even more impassioned: "Therefore, the company has decided to build several new factories in succession! Not only those of you here, but we will also recruit more new workers in the future!"

Jiang Yang picked up the thread, his tone gentle yet firm: "Once the new workers arrive, all of you veterans here will be considered elders! At that time, many of you will be promoted to team leaders, foremen, and managers! Your salaries will naturally rise accordingly!"

Jiang Yang's words were like a shot in the arm, instantly igniting the workers' enthusiasm.

The workers chattered excitedly, their faces beaming with anticipation.

Many people even declared on the spot, their voices loud and clear: "Boss Jiang, rest assured, we will definitely work hard! We will never bring shame to the company!"

"Yes! We will definitely work hard and make sure we complete the task!"

"Our 'Yangxin' will definitely become the largest garment factory in the country in the future!"

……

Looking at the group of enthusiastic workers in front of him, Jiang Yang felt full of confidence.

He believes that with this group of highly skilled and enthusiastic workers, Yangxin's future will be even more brilliant.

"I believe in everyone!" Jiang Yang's voice was firm and powerful. "I believe that every one of you here possesses excellent technical skills and work abilities! In the future, you will definitely be able to complete all the work tasks assigned to you by the company!"

The people who had previously organized the workers to protest were now wilted, like eggplants after a frost.

They looked at each other, unsure how to end this.

One of the braver ones stepped forward, gritting his teeth.

He chuckled awkwardly and said, "Boss Jiang, um... if there's nothing else, we'll head back to work?"

The others quickly echoed, their faces full of guilt and unease.

Jiang Yang's smile gradually faded as he slowly scanned the group of people in front of him.

He shouted to the workers, "The matter isn't finished yet, so don't rush off."
