Integrity is worth ten thousand dollars!He looked at the tall building in front of him helplessly, sighed, and left ...... without looking back
He is Lao Wang, a contractor who has been working for more than 20 years. A van, a level, and a small notebook have been with him for many years, and they used to be his breadwinners, but now they don't want them.
Lao Wang decided to change his career because the construction industry was too difficult this year. Too many accounts are hard to receive. This meant that he could not give an explanation to his brother who was following him.
He ran out of money for his family.
This bowl of rice is not delicious. To support a group of workers, that is a heavy responsibility. Those brothers are working with you because they believe in you. So be accountable to them. This is what Lao Wang often says.
In the past, Lao Wang Bao could earn a little more than 1,000 yuan, and he could earn 10,000 or 20,000, 20,000 or 30,000 yuan. can earn 1670,000 yuan in a year. If you are lucky, you can earn more than 200,000 yuan a year.
But the money is not easy to get.
After the work is done, Party A always pays half and presses half. Although there is an annual profit of more than 100,000, it is about 100,000 in the end, and sometimes it is less than 100,000.
If the remaining 50% of the outstanding accounts can be recovered in the coming year, there is still a little profit. However, it will be difficult to receive the remaining outstanding accounts after they come in the coming year. It's likely to be a bad debt.
In the construction industry, bread work is like unwrapping a blind box. No one knows if this box is a treasure or a stone. Or maybe it's a bomb.
No one can control the contents of the blind box. It's all about luck, not ability.
In the past few years, as long as Lao Wang opens a few more blind boxes in a year, he can always receive the box with guarantees.
But this year is different. The blind box he opened was either a rock or a bomb.
The blind box containing the treasure represents a profitable project and the collection is good. The blind box containing the stone means that the project can generally be principal-protected. A blind box with a bomb represents a trap loss.
Dry contract foreman is a very risky job. Because the team he leads has to pay out of pocket every month. Most construction projects are year-end. This lays a hidden danger for the loss of the contractor.
Lao Wang took over the factory job in November last year. The factory building is made of steel. This also includes road construction. Beat concrete. There is also a supporting water and electricity installation.
The contract price is 1 million, and the profit is 30%. The construction period is six months. From November last year to April this year. The contract stipulates that the payment will be made one month after the completion of the project.
But it's been eight months now. The amount for the work remains outstanding.
And Lao Wang paid 700,000 yuan in advance for this project.
And that's not all. Lao Wang took over a project to partially renovate an old community last year. It's the same thing. The project Lao Wang advanced 300,000. It's been a year and a half now. only to receive the settlement of 100,000 yuan from Party A.
Lao Wang, a contractor who has worked for more than 20 years, has never owed wages to workers. However, since last year, the wages of the workers have been in arrears. He had planned to receive the payment this year, and he had paid last year's outstanding wages to the workers.
What he didn't expect was that the hole was getting bigger and bigger.
For him, the hole of more than one million is still promising if it is placed in the past when the industry is developing rapidly. But at present, the construction industry is getting worse and worse. The problem of difficulty in settling project payments has become particularly prominent.
After a complicated ideological struggle, Lao Wang decided to change his career. He was going to set up a stall to sell pancakes.
Before that, Lao Wang had friends around him, and his peers had changed careers. Some friends also asked him to change careers together, but he refused.
He is reluctant to give up on this industry that he has worked hard for half his life.
Although he has known for a long time that the industry has declined. It was he who still had good hopes. After all, this industry has raised him for decades and raised his family, although he is not rich and expensive, but at least he has no worries about food and clothing.
Now he has changed his career, a contractor who has been working for more than 20 years. How helpless he was to make such a decision.
Lao Wang is the epitome of countless contract foremen. It is the epitome of this era. He is small and humble, but he can represent a group.
