11. Wind.26 (21)
Valrhona was momentarily shaken in the retina, and the corners of Nidhogg's mouth went up, mocking in his heart at how arrogant the little princess was.
Inheriting the memories of his parents, Nidhogg does not have any affection for the Golden Dragons, but when it comes to affairs, he will put aside his feelings and evaluate his opponents calmly and correctly.
Valrhona is no easy person, and her method of gathering information by tapping on the side is a good illustration. But her level is too different from Li Lin after all, and those little tricks of the performance nature are seen through at once, in the final analysis, she is always just a self-righteous little girl. On the other hand, Li Lin internalized his role as a "container", based on the will of the world, and put on a mask made of the expectations of all living beings. How could a vulgar little girl be compared to him.
(Just continue to cling to the idea of being backward behind the times, and the day will come when this adult will break down the barriers of the country, the nation, and the doctrine and truly realize the unity of the world.) For the birth of a new world, the old world has been burned to the ground, and it is not far off for this lord to become the king of the world-)
Intoxicated by the condescending sense of superiority, Nidhogg straightened his chest and looked proudly at the hateful she-dragon who was still two heads above him after the transformation - by the way, the black suit Shota's gaze was just at the same height as the sitting busty dragon girl, and if he wanted to complete the physiological and physical difficulty of "overlooking", he could only think about using his feet and feet......
Ignoring the entanglement of the two dragons, Li Lin's fingers slowly tapped on the table, bringing up a topic that was completely unexpected by the dragons.
"Miss Valrhona seems to have a good conversation with our Roland. Young people really have to be with their peers to be passionate. β
Without the ruthless calculations of the political family, the tone of pure evil eyes and teasing turned in her ears, and after a while, Valrhona finally showed a surprise expression, her complexion above her neck suddenly turned red, and a few swaying white columns of steam rose above her head.
"I now understand why Little Brother Roland shouted 'Li Lin, you calculate my ......!'. β
"Oh, he said that......"
I don't know when I found black sunglasses and put them on my face. Li Lin put on a mocking expression of disdain. "It's just a little ghost," and poured whiskey into the glass with ice cubes.
Looking at this picture of not knowing whether to call it a thief, an ace or a duck, Valrhona was speechless for a while, frowning and sorting out her thoughts. She brought the conversation back to its normal direction.
"I don't know much about education and talent development. But...... IMHO. Your Excellency Li Lin, don't you think Roland is actually not suitable for this kind of work?"
Maybe Li Lin figured out a radical way to experience Roland, but in Valrhona's opinion. The probability of success is a dismal, if not zero, number.
The first debt collection shows excellent ability, as well as equal weight of moral awareness and compassion. It's not a bad thing, but Roland wants to become a sweatshop owner, a capitalist who squeezes workers to the limit - like the black-hearted businessmen like Li Lin and Nidhogg, who often let human workers work overtime to death in the early days of their business without paying a penny for overtime wages.
The development of monopoly capital is based on the brutal exploitation of workers, and the enterprises of philanthropists do not last more than a year, and all that survives is sweatshops. The history of V.E is a testament to this.
It's really difficult for Roland to become such an adult, it's as difficult as the men's football team of a large country in East Asia on the planet to reach the World Cup final, or be realistic, it's better to reduce the difficulty to the level of reaching the round of 16 first......
"You can get him to do something more 'gentle', like running a shop and something like that, and change his mindset a little bit. β
"That would be too slow, Fr?ulein. β
Li Lin put away his sunglasses and responded like a joke, leaving Valrhona stunned on the spot.
"For the timeline of the company's transformation of the way it operates, the half-hearted approach is just a waste of time and energy. β
"Transformation...... How do you do business?"
"That's right, the sweatshop situation will not last forever, and in order not to be obsolete by the times, we will prepare for it in advance. Roland was one of them, but he was a little too ahead of his time, and most of the people who were ahead of their time ended up being burned at the stake, and in order to avoid this terrible thing, experience was necessary for Roland, who would take over the operation and management of the factory. β
"It's unbelievable. β
Valrhona shook her head, her face incredulous.
It's easy to understand that if what Li Lin said wasn't a lie, then he would have introduced Roland's gentle management methods to V.E. and completely changed the way its factories operated.
Valrhona can't imagine a factory full of human feelings, which is too far from the basic principles of capital operation and Li Lin's usual ruthless style, inefficient and costly, what is he calculating?
The smile that looked like a sneer on the corner of her mouth grew deeper, and Freya's reaction was expected. When Andrew Carnegie was glamorously whitewashed overnight and transformed into a philanthropist, it was hard to associate the philanthropist with the big capitalists who had commanded the private army to suppress striking workers who demanded a pay rise four years earlier. Similarly, Theodore Roosevelt, the distant cousin of the Democrat's disabled superman and one of the four stoneheads on Mount Rushmore, was a strong advocate of repression of the workers before he became the leader of the United States, threatening to shoot the workers under the wall more than once. After the election was successful, he actively organized a consortium to do so.
Li Lin never minds what means are used to achieve the goal, sweatshops and philanthropists are just a means, and the standard of measuring both is not humanity and fairness and justice, but whether they can achieve the goal of maximizing profits.
"With the increase in per capita economic aggregate, purchasing power and prices, the era of comprehensive improvement of workers' treatment will always come, and factories will inevitably undergo transformation and upgrading. Roland is good enough for its workers not to oversqueeze them, allowing the factory to transform smoothly and to give it an edge over its competitors. β
"I see, if you do it well enough, your company will be more attractive than others. β
"Not good enough. β
Li Lin narrowed his eyes and corrected Valrhona.
"Just a little bit better than other factories. β
In the first phase of the transition, care was limited to high-level skilled workers and skilled workers in specific positions, who would receive one-fifth of the elf workers' salaries and generous benefits, and who would organize a faΓ§ade-dressing workers' representative body to prevent the emergence of genuine union organizations. As for the ordinary workers, who cares about them? Even if a group jumps off a building and dies, they will soon be able to recruit new bipedal animals.
"No matter what, you can always make sure you get the most bang for your buck...... I have to say, you are such a 'successful businessman'. β
With a light sigh, Valrhona made up her mind to Li Lin with pure superficial politeness. (To be continued......)
