NFBE Chapter 211 The despicable methods of the consortium
Chapter 211 The despicable methods of the consortium
After hearing Jian Qianou's words, Lin Lan immediately understood what the old fox meant.
This is because I want him to help clean up the door.
But next month, Qi Yue happened to invite him to Yunhai City.
Lin Lan thought for a moment and looked at Bismarck.
Seeing Bismarck nodding to him, Lin Lan said:
"In that case, I will come to Yunhai City next month."
"I will contact you then."
As the most prosperous big city in the Western Continent, Yunhai City is by sea from his port area, and it takes almost three days to travel in a straight line on a mass-produced destroyer.
After all, with the protection of the Iron-Blooded Fleet, he doesn't need to take a route, just take the shortest route.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Lan looked at the date on his phone. There were still two weeks until next month.
It was already mid-October, and even though the sun was shining outside the office, I could already feel that the weather was getting colder.
Lin Lan has already added an extra piece of clothing to herself.
It has been almost a year and a half since Lin Lan traveled through time and came to the United States of Oran.
Having experienced winter once, he knew very well that around November, Oran would officially enter winter.
In Oran in winter, whether it is the eastern continent or the western continent, the coasts of many cities in the north will freeze.
This makes it difficult to transport supplies via rivers and oceans.
Many cities in Oran will prepare supplies for winter in advance.
Fortunately, all the equipment and living supplies in his port area are currently abundant, and the iron-blooded floating island fortress next to the port area has begun to take shape.
With the combination of Barbarian Chiu and Muscular Cat, the huge floating island fortress will basically change every day, which can be said to be quite efficient.
After the fortress is repaired, many supplies and equipment can be transferred from the temporary warehouses in the port area to the fortress.
Before he goes to Yunhai City, he will definitely be able to accommodate all the ship girls.
Sometimes he also thinks about whether it is really necessary to build a floating island fortress here since they will have to return to the old port area by then.
But later he also figured out that when he returned to the port area in the future, it would not mean that he would not return to Oran.
The ancient emperor had his own palace. If he wanted to return to Oran again in the future, wouldn't this be an excellent holiday residence?
Anyway, the construction of the floating island fortress does not waste resources and energy.
The material is siren's, the energy is directly converted from ocean energy, and the manpower is provided by his wild chirp and muscle cat.
When he thought about it, he felt relieved.
Today, Bismarck was accompanying him as the secretary ship, so Lin Lan asked Bismarck out of curiosity:
"Speaking of which, Bismarck, can we communicate with other camps now?"
After all, a long time has passed since the virtual image conversation with the flagship representatives of other camps in the Iron-Blooded Fortress.
Therefore, Lin Lan also wanted to know how the other camps were doing.
"Unfortunately, Commander, the ultra-long-distance communication equipment is currently managed by Frederick because it is difficult to relocate. We are currently unable to contact other camps."
Bismarck said solemnly, and also explained the reason:
"That equipment requires a huge energy supply and requires the cooperation of the command cat, so Commander, we can only restore communications with other camps after Frederick and the others arrive."
After hearing Bismarck's answer, Lin Lan lay down on the chair behind the desk, feeling a little disappointed.
The planned time for Frederick the Great's arrival was also about half a month away.
Everything happens by chance.
Seeing that Lin Lan seemed to be in a low mood, Bismarck got up from the sofa, picked up a cup of hot coffee that she had just brewed on the coffee table, and placed it on Lin Lan's table.
"Commander, don't worry. I contacted other camps from the fortress before coming here, and they are all fine at the moment."
After hearing what Bismarck said, Lin Lan sat up, moved the hot coffee in front of her, sipping the refreshing aroma of the coffee, looked at Bismarck in front of her curiously and asked:
"Oh? Then tell me how they are doing lately?"
After Bismarck thought for a moment, he seriously began to recall:
"Commander, let me talk about the White Eagle camp closest to us first."
"When Brynhild and the others went to White Eagle, White Eagle had only just conquered the consortium, and they were even cleaning up the remaining senior consortium officials who were resisting."
"Now the consortium has accepted its fate. In Saratoga's words, it has influenced them with the spirit of the beacon of freedom. Many workers of the consortium even took the initiative to build sculptures for them."
Originally, Lin Lan was listening to Bismarck's words, blowing the steam from the hot coffee in her hand, and took a sip of it into her mouth.
When he heard about the consortium worker who had been influenced by Bai Ying, he immediately stopped and choked on his coffee, causing a lot of it to spill out.
"Ah, Commander, is the coffee I brewed too bitter? Sorry, I'll get you a tissue right away."
Seeing a lot of coffee spilled on Lin Lan's table, Bismarck, who was originally calm, showed panic on his face and wanted to step forward to help.
"It's not about coffee. What did you just say? Say it again?"
Lin Lan suppressed the shock in her heart and waved Bismarck's hand without asking for help.
After taking out the paper towel on the table, he wiped his hands and the coffee on the table while looking at Bismarck with shocked eyes.
"Hmm...Saratoga didn't explain the specific situation clearly. According to my speculation, it may be because the previous consortium squeezed the workers too hard."
After hearing Bismarck's analysis, Lin Lan suddenly realized.
This is too possible.
The three major consortiums in the Eastern Continent are the Tianxing Consortium, the Gouliya Consortium and the Noah Desin Consortium.
Except for the Tianxing Consortium, the other two are very typical vampire consortiums.
Whether it is the Gouliya Consortium that monopolizes the energy and mining industry in the Eastern Continent, or the Noah Deshin Business Group that has risen through the cheap labor expatriation industry.
These two large conglomerates are collaborating together, which makes many Oran people from the Eastern Continent or Liaozhou people who come from Liaozhou to work hate them, but they are helpless.
At the Hongye Naval Academy at that time, Lin Lan heard his classmates mention that they had family members working in these two large consortiums.
In order to earn the most benefits from their employees at the lowest cost, these two large consortiums can be said to go to any lengths.
First, the leather bag company of Noah Deshin Business Group recruited a large number of workers with false high wages and excellent working environment.
After that, these workers will be dispatched to the Goiliya Consortium by the Noah Desin Business Group and become so-called "expatriate workers."
Not only is the workload several times higher than what was stated during recruitment, but wages are also deducted for various reasons.
What makes the workers even more angry is that before the Candle Sea Chamber of Commerce seized power, the United States of Orange had regulations that required companies to provide compensation for work-related injuries and occupational diseases to regular employees.
However, after becoming dispatched workers, when workers suffer from occupational diseases or injuries and want to seek compensation from the Gouliya Foundation...
However, they will be told that as dispatched workers, they must ask for this compensation from the company where they applied.
When the workers finally manage the leather bag company of Noah Deshin Business Group, they will find a surprise.
That means this leather bag company has gone bankrupt.
By this time, these poor workers will either face unemployment, or they will have to continue to work as dispatched workers in the Goiliya Consortium.
The Gou Ilia Consortium will also draw up the pie in a timely manner, such as how long it will take to become a regular employee, how many years it will take to get a salary increase, etc.
This method has been tried repeatedly by the two major consortiums, because they have become the power holders and monopolies of the Eastern Continent and are completely unscrupulous.
Even if a worker goes to the court to file a complaint, it is impossible to get any compensation, and the complainant will even pay a lot of money.
You know, it also costs money to file a complaint before the court.
As Hongye College, the highest institution of the Navy, many of Lin Lan's classmates have already seen through these shady stories.
However, more ordinary people in Oran or people who come to work from other countries have fallen into the trap of these two major consortiums and are unable to escape.
At that time, Lin Lan didn't think there was anything strange about this after listening to all the stories from his classmates in the college.
Because when he was at Blue Star, he was used to seeing this disgusting trick caused by capitalists in the history books.
Those who are just playing these tricks have all been hanged on the street lamps by the working class led by Blue Star's Northern Alliance.
The reason why he is so shocked now is because he never expected that what should have been done by the Northern Alliance was actually done by White Eagle!
