Chapter 100 Saving Cultural Relics The car passed by Sheung Wan Pier, and Li Zhenzhen looked out the window. People were coming and going on the pier. Groups of workers in thin clothes carried goods, and under the command of the foreman, went back and forth between the ship and the pier. They were busy and nervous. ground transportation.
Most of these workers are young and strong laborers. They carry heavy goods on their backs. Their muscles are tense, and the veins on their necks are exposed. Their faces are red, and big beads of sweat drip from their foreheads, hitting the concrete floor, and evaporating in an instant. Without a trace.
Such coolie workers can only earn a few years of hard work, and within a few years they will become sick all over their bodies, with basically no hope for the rest of their lives.
Li Zhenzhen couldn't bear to watch, so she looked away and stared at the boats on the dock. Suddenly, she realized something.
"Huh? Isn't there a container dock here?"
Xie Changping was driving attentively, and glanced at the boats out of the corner of his eye. The wharf, casually said: "Boss, the container you are talking about, is it a large box moved by a machine?"
"Yes," Li Zhenzhen nodded, But she immediately realized that Xie Changping couldn't see it at all, so she asked, "Vice President Xie, so you knew about it?"
Xie Changping said without even turning his head, "Boss, that container has only become popular in the past two years. I saw it when I was in London, it was really convenient. But we don't have it in Hong Kong yet."
Li Zhenzhen said puzzledly: "Why is that? Obviously, containers save more time and cost. "
Xie Changping said without thinking: "Boss, you don't know that the problem lies in this cost saving. It is said that to take away someone's money is like killing his parents. If the container is made, what will happen to these workers? Won't they lose their jobs? And I heard that, Building a container terminal is not an easy task. Just buying the machines would cost a lot of money. How could the bosses be willing to do that? With these workers, it would be better to just use manpower. "
Li Zhenzhen thought about it carefully and felt that Xie Chang Ping's words made sense. She made a mistake of course, just like the protagonist of "Why not eat meat?", and a look of shame rose on her face.
But she knew that with the changing times, containers would sooner or later Popularized in Hong Kong. Moreover, Hong Kong is an internationally renowned cargo port, so this process will only speed up, not slow down.
Li Zhenzhen looked out the window, deep in thought.
Xie Changping waited for a long time, but she didn't say anything. He guessed, "Boss, are you still thinking about the container? Now the Kowloon warehouse has been handed over to the Hongmen. That's a problem they need to consider. It's useless for us to think so much. "
Li Zhenzhen came back to her senses and said softly: "Yes, this is indeed not something we should worry about, forget it. Vice President Xie, are we almost there?"
"Almost, just ahead." Xie Changping After turning a corner and driving a short distance, we finally stopped at the door of a large warehouse. We got out of the car first, opened the back door, and said respectfully, "Boss, we're here."
This large warehouse originally belonged to the Kowloon Warehouse , is a row of tall and sturdy bungalows with a large area. There was a sentry post at the gate, and a special security guard was guarding it.
Seeing Li Zhenzhen and Xie Changping appear at the same time, the two security guards hurried out of the sentry post and worked together to open the gate.
