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

Chapter 168 Workers' Strike

The group of people who led the disturbance felt a sudden unease.

The square-faced man asked cautiously, "Mr. Jiang, hasn't the misunderstanding been cleared up? Is there anything else?"

"The misunderstanding has been cleared up, but you guys were the ones who led the trouble, so this matter can't just be left like this!" Jiang Yang's voice suddenly rose.

“You few, as workers of ‘Yangxin’, maliciously instigated and encouraged a strike by the majority of workers during working hours! This has caused the company enormous economic losses and negative impacts!”

The workers who had led the disturbance immediately turned pale.

Jiang Yang continued, "You should give the company an explanation for this!"

Then, he turned to Chu Lan and said, "Chu Lan, go and call the accountant and settle these people's wages up to the end of this month."

These people suddenly raised their heads, their eyes wide open.

They never imagined things would escalate to this point.

This isn't as simple as having a pay cut or writing a self-criticism; it could cost me my job!

"Mr. Jiang, isn't this punishment a bit too harsh?"

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, we were confused for a moment, please forgive us this time!"

"We have elderly parents to support and young children to raise. Our whole family depends on this job for a living. You can't fire us!"

The voices of the several people pleading for mercy were filled with anxiety and panic.

Jiang Yang looked at them coldly and raised his voice, saying, "You led the trouble and caused the company losses that are far more than your lifetime salaries! Every country has its laws, and every family has its rules. The fact that I haven't punished you is already a great act of leniency!"

These people were rendered speechless by Jiang Yang's reprimand, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to utter another word.

Jiang Yang looked intently at the other workers and said, "If you think my punishment of them was excessive, please speak up now!"

The workers looked at each other, none of them daring to be the first to speak up.

Jiang Yang looked at the troublemakers again: "Since everyone agrees that my punishment is appropriate, you can leave now. You will all be blacklisted by the company and will never be hired again!"

"Boss Jiang..." The group tried to say something more.

Jiang Yang, however, did not want to get entangled with them any longer and simply walked away.

Back in his office, Jiang Yang was still furious.

"As the company grows larger and the number of workers increases, we must prevent similar incidents from happening again."

Only by taking precautions can we achieve long-term stability and security.

He paused, looked at Chu Lan, and instructed, "Here's what you'll do: establish a labor union within the company, composed of company leaders and representatives of ordinary workers. Any issues arising from this can be communicated and coordinated within the labor union. Anyone who attempts to incite unrest, regardless of who they are, must be dismissed immediately, without exception!"

A few days after the factory incident was quelled, Jiang Yang arrived at "Chef Yang".

The plaque is already hanging high above the door, with its calligraphy flowing like dragons and snakes, exuding a certain grandeur.

The interior decoration of the hotel is also nearing completion.

When Shen Qing saw Jiang Yang arrive, he quickly came up to him and said, "Mr. Jiang, what do you think of the renovation?"

Jiang Yang nodded and praised, "Excellent, completely transformed! Even better than I imagined!"

"Where's Master Yu? Has he arrived yet?" Jiang Yang asked.

Shen Qing replied with a smile, "He's here! Master Yu arrived early this morning and is currently in the kitchen communicating with the chefs who are cutting and preparing the dough, saying that they need to work together properly."

Jiang Yang strode toward the kitchen.

The kitchen was bustling with activity.

Master Yu was standing in front of the stove, holding a kitchen knife in his hand, gesturing at something.

The knife-making master and the noodle-making master surrounded him, listening attentively.

"Master Yu, thank you for your hard work!" Jiang Yang greeted him with a smile.

Master Yu turned around and saw Jiang Yang. He quickly put down the cleaver in his hand and came to greet him: "Boss Jiang, you've arrived!"

Jiang Yang asked with concern, "How are you doing, Master Yu? Are you settling in well here? If you need anything at work, just let us know, and we'll do our best to accommodate you."

"Satisfied!" Chef Yu nodded repeatedly. "This working environment is the best I've ever worked in! My colleagues are all very welcoming, and we get along very well!"

Jiang Yang patted Master Yu on the shoulder.

"Chef Yu, you are a master chef of Sichuan cuisine. The reputation of 'Chef Yang' depends on you! If you need anything, just tell Manager Shen. Let's work together to make this restaurant a great success!"

After leaving the kitchen, Jiang Yang went to Shen Qing's office.

Jiang Yang asked, "Manager Shen, has the opening date been set?"

"Mr. Jiang, judging from the current progress, the renovation and all preparations should be completed in another week. We should be able to open around the first of next month," Shen Qing replied while flipping through the plans in his notebook.

"Alright! Let's go with number one!" Jiang Yang made the final decision. "Put up an ad at the entrance beforehand, saying that everything is half price for the first week of opening!"

He thought for a moment, then added, "Oh, right, let's also add a membership discount and a spending-amount-reduction system. Like this..."

Jiang Yang then explained to Shen Qing in detail the common membership discounts and spending reductions that were common in later generations.

These things are commonplace in later generations, but in the early 1980s, they were absolutely novelties.

Jiang Yang wasn't sure if it would work, but there was no harm in giving it a try.

Shen Qing stared wide-eyed at the plan Jiang Yang had given her, her mouth agape as if she could fit an egg in it.

"Mr. Jiang, how...how did you even get your brain working? This...this is unbelievable!" Shen Qing was so excited that he stammered, "Half price on everything, member discounts, spending-to-refund promotions...this is unheard of! If I hadn't heard it from you, I would never have believed that there was such a way to do business!"

"Mr. Jiang, you are truly... truly a business genius!" Shen Qing gave Jiang Yang a thumbs up.

Jiang Yang's promotional tactics completely overturned Shen Qing's understanding.

She never dreamed that business could be done this way!

Jiang Yang waved his hand and smiled modestly: "Hey, this is nothing, just a little trick. Whether it will work or not is still up in the air."

Back at school, Jiang Yang threw himself into the literary society.

"Dong Xin, can you do me a favor?" Jiang Yang found Dong Xin and got straight to the point.

"President, please speak!" Dong Xin was organizing the club's materials when she saw Jiang Yang and immediately put down what she was doing.

"My restaurant is about to open, so can you design an advertising slogan for me and make some posters that are eye-catching and attractive?" Jiang Yang briefly explained his requirements.

Jiang Yang trusted Dong Xin's writing skills and creativity. Entrusting this matter to her was definitely the right thing to do.

Upon hearing this, Dong Xin perked up: "Alright, President! I guarantee I'll complete the task."
