Chapter 107 [Modification of Singh Industrial Holiday System]
Three hours later, doctors and nurses tried their best to save the cement factory worker who fell down the hillside, and his life was finally saved. However, due to his age, he suffered two fractured thighs, a broken arm, a fractured lumbar spine, and three broken ribs. He needed to be treated in the hospital for half a year before he could be discharged.
As for when we can go to the fields and when we can work normally, it all depends on the will of Lord Shiva. Doctors and nurses like them can't make him fully recover. It's good if he can save his life. What else do you want? After getting the final answer, Belsinger finally breathed a sigh of relief.
I went to the senior ward and took a look. I saw that the cement factory worker who lived alone on one shoulder was still in a coma. His wife and eldest daughter were still waiting by his side. When they saw Mr. Singer coming in, these housewives quickly stood up and bowed to salute. Although Belsinger was tough on outsiders, he was still relatively kind to those within his own sphere of influence. of.
Seeing the pillar of the family lying unconscious on the bed, wrapped into a mummy. What should I do if my family is an orphan and a widowed mother? Their lives will definitely be in trouble. She sighed and said to the housekeeper behind her. "Steward Jamal, although this cement factory worker walked on a mountain road and rode a bicycle overnight without permission during get off work, causing such serious injuries today. It is his own fault, but no matter what, he is a member of our village and has followed the Singh family for generations."
"There is no credit, there is still hard work, so the cost of the operation is borne by the Singh family. In addition, the Singh Cement Factory will provide the family with 80% of the salary every month until the worker recovers."
As soon as Mr. Singh finished speaking, all the cement factory workers who were standing in the corridor watching the excitement cheered. In the ward, the wives and daughters of the injured were also kneeling on the ground, kowtowing to Mr. Singh. These orphans and widows were finally found.
Not starving to death, this is the benefit of living in Lagar Village, and that is the benefit of being a slave to Mr. Singh. If there is a master to take care of them, they will not be like those wandering Sudras and Dalits who have no one to take care of them and no one to ask them. They are the most miserable people.
He can't even keep up with the slaves in Mr. Singer's house. You can tell which one has a good life and which one has a bad life. This is also the reason why so many people are afraid of being driven out of the Lagar Valley. This worker finally stabilized after Belsinger arranged his funeral. The director of the hospital, holding his right hand wrapped like a bear's paw, led all the hospital colleagues to the hospital gate and bent it at 90 degrees to bid farewell to Mr. Singh, the murderous god, who had finally left.
After a day and a night of hard work, Belsinger couldn't hold on any longer and asked the workers to return to the cement factory to prepare for work. Then he took the old butler's meat mule Brook back to his residence in the town, fell on the bed and fell asleep. He slept until about seven o'clock in the afternoon before getting up from the bed, and simply ate some easy-to-digest fruit to cushion his stomach.
After all, we had dinner after nine o'clock. Now what should we do when we are too full for dinner? I just put down the tea cup in my hand. Just when he heard the doorbell ringing, Bell Singer knew who was coming without getting up. Before going to bed, he had already ordered the old housekeeper to find the heads of several Singer Industrial company stores to come to his home for a meeting at eight o'clock.
These people would come early and never be late. They gathered before eight o'clock. When they came to the living room, they saw Mr. Singh sitting on the main seat of the sofa and bowed first. With the permission of the master, everyone sat on the sofa. At this time, everyone would take out their cigarettes and chat while drinking tea. At this time, Mr. Singh took a puff of camel cigarette and choked, coughing, and said in a hoarse voice.
"Marbury, you know, the cement factory workers learned to ride bicycles and fell seriously injured because they were traveling at night. How can this not affect the expansion and production of the cement factory?"
Marbury quickly sat up and said to his boss, "Mr. Singh, how could I not know that such a big thing happened? I am the first to thank the man for his generosity on behalf of the workers. I will pay him every month according to the master's instructions." The injured worker’s home pays 80% of his salary.”
"Since his job is to seal cement bags, both men and women can complete it. He can work directly without training, so it will not affect the normal expansion and production tasks of the cement plant."
Don't worry if it doesn't affect the situation. The cement factory is making a lot of money every day. If the injured workers lead to a decrease in production. Since the work was stopped, my losses would have been huge. Fortunately, fortunately, the worker who was practicing riding a bicycle on the hillside and looking for death turned out to be a bag sealer, so it would not affect the production of the cement factory.
At this time, Singh was satisfied and let go of the big stone in his heart, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with a smile. "What do you think this worker is doing if he's not looking for death? He's actually practicing cycling in a dark mountain. What does he think?"
At this time, the manager of the building materials store, Weir, who knew the actual situation better, sighed and said. "Sir, you may not know that the main means of transportation in the entire town of Sinjar is bicycles. Because the road conditions are so bad, there are only some dirt roads leading to the countryside, with potholes on the uphill and downhill slopes."
"Only bicycles can pass smoothly, so bicycles can be regarded as a very luxurious family property. Workers in this cement factory have been paid, and there are many who have one and a half months' salary in their hands. When they are about to get off work, they directly How can he not be excited about buying a new bicycle? He fell seriously injured while practicing cycling in the mountains. Who can blame him?"
Yes, Sinjar is so convenient that bicycles have become a luxury means of transportation. It is a symbol of wealth and status. After working in the cement factory for two months, you can buy a brand new bicycle and ride it back home. It is a very glorious thing.
It is equivalent to buying a family car and showing off in front of friends and neighbors. It may be because he played a little too much and fell in the mountains. It is purely his own problem, but the rules and regulations of Singer Industrial Company also indirectly contributed to the occurrence of this accident.
This time, I came to Singer to find these factory managers and store managers to modify the inhumane regulations of Singer Experiment, so I sighed and said. "Although he was to blame for the fall, some of Singh Industries' rules also indirectly became accomplices. Changes are necessary. For example, Singh Industries will pay the previous month's wages on the first day of each month, and workers will get off work at six o'clock when the wages are paid."
"It's okay for workers living in the town, but workers living in Lagar Village can't get home. So I want to change the rules and regulations. When the wages are paid on the first day of each month, a half-day work system will be implemented, and the workers will be off at 12 noon. Let these workers who get paid go home happily, buy something for their families, stay at home for one night, and then go to work the next day."
Bel Singh's decision was unanimously agreed by everyone present. There is no eight-hour work system in India. But generally speaking, you need to work 12 hours from 6 am to 6 pm, and there are no holidays.

Of course, it is an ancient tradition that several important festivals of Hinduism must be closed, but outside of these festivals, there are no rest days. It is a very generous decision of Bel Singh to implement a half-day work system when paying wages.
