The reason why the Daughter's Day fire has a great impact is mainly because the scene is too tragic.According to later statistics, 75 people jumped from the windows of high-rise buildings because they could not stand the fire.In the investigation report of the fire investigation team of Jinhui Garment Factory to Li Lu, the reasons for the accident were summarized, first of all, Jinhui Garment Factory had a weak awareness of fire prevention, and in order to improve production efficiency, a large number of flammable wastes were piled up under the tailor's table; The implementation of the fire prevention policy is not effective, and some business backbones do not take fire prevention seriously at all.They speculated that a match should have ignited the scrap and started the fire.After the fire, the problems exposed are even more.Instead of running away, many workers go to the locker room to get their clothes first, reflecting the lack of safety education.The fire extinguishing hose in the building failed, and the water did not come out at the critical moment, which was a problem with the security equipment.The fire started on the fifth floor, and there was a poor connection between the sixth and seventh floors.If the sixth and seventh floors had been notified three minutes earlier, so many people would not have died.This point of view is that there has never been a fire drill and no accident plan.The design of the Jingyang building, where the Jinhui Garment Factory is located, also does not meet the security standards, for example, the escape door is opened inward, and people rush up when there is an accident, and the door cannot be opened at all; The fire escape was not easy to reach, and it was so narrow that it could not even reach the ground, and it was simply crushed in the end, causing more casualties.To make matters worse, the factory owner, Lin Jinhui, locked the escape door from the outside in order to prevent workers from stealing the garments.Some people may ask, fires can also cause losses to factory owners, why don't they strengthen safety production?
This is because the accident insurance system in the insurance system established by Li Lu has changed its flavor under the operation of some moths.Originally, in order to pay less insurance premiums, factory owners like Lin Jinhui should have reduced the risk of fire.But the insurance agents are not happy because then they will have less premium increases.As a result, factory owners ignore the risks and pay more premiums.When something really happens, the insurance company loses much more money than it actually loses.As a result, fires became profitable, and factory owners even deliberately prevented fires in order to clear their stocks.This is a typical "moral hazard", and it is obvious that the insurance system introduced by Li Lu is obviously not perfect, so that this practice has an opportunity.Having identified the problem, it is natural that reform is needed, and in the face of disaster, people have two options: to hold individuals accountable, or to hold the system accountable at the same time.Both of these options were strongly supported by the Supreme Li Lu of the Empire, first of all, Li Lu cleaned up some stolen officials in the officialdom who had no conscience or simply accepted the black money of black-hearted businessmen like Lin Jinhui, and sent these people who dared to act as a protective umbrella to the gallows.As for Lin Jinhui, the first person in charge of the fire, he was honored to become the defendant in the first major case after Li Lu's judicial reform, and the Broken Leaf Mansion Procuratorate filed a public prosecution with the Broken Leaf Court on seven charges of endangering public safety, and finally the Broken Leaf Court pronounced the verdict in court, and the defendant Lin Jinhui Fan was guilty of endangering public safety, intentional murder, and illegally restricting personal self.
Lin Jinhui was sentenced to death and confiscated all his property for five major crimes, including crimes.As the Lin family who benefited from Lin Jinhui's illegal operation, they were deprived of their Han nationality, and their family was sent to a slave labor camp as a coolie.As for the accountability of the system, the main ones are labor legislation, fire protection legislation and insurance legislation, among which Li Lu is most concerned about labor legislation, this is because Lin Jinhui also thinks that his pursuit of profit is not wrong until his death, and he should not be responsible for those young lives that have passed, which deeply angers and stung Li Lu, because the British Emperor of this time and space had dealt with such sweatshops in his previous life.Li Lu's cousin in his previous life used to work in a garment factory in Lingnan, just like the Daughter's Day fire, his cousin's life was fixed at the age of twenty-two, because of this incident, Li Lu, who was in college at the time, also went to Lingnan in person, he remembered very well that the garment factory where his cousin worked was to prevent workers from stealing the factory's things, not only locked the door, but also locked the windows, in the eyes of the boss of the garment factory, it was legal to lock up the workers, at least reasonable, His reasons are the same as this Lin Jinhui.And this Lin Jinhui's attitude towards safety production and workers is also very similar to the bosses of sweatshops he saw in his previous life, he not only tried to use the fire to make money from the dead with his conscience, but also this Lin Jinhui is also an extremely harsh master of the workers, in his Jinhui garment factory, he works for more than six hours every day, you must know that this is in the era when there is no electric light, according to Lin Jinhui's requirements, the workers have to stay in the workshop all day during the day to work, and even he is deprived of lunch time.In his Jinhui clothing, if you want to go to the toilet, you have to report it first.If someone wants to go to the toilet, they have to apply to the supervisor to go to the toilet and get permission before they can leave to go to the toilet.Li Lu personally went to see the workers' dormitory of the Jinhui Garment Factory, which was a pigeon-cage-like hut, but there were more than a dozen people under the fortress, and no one took care of the garbage inside.The beds were very old, the iron beds, rusty, and the heavier ones might have collapsed.The dormitories are poorly ventilated.You must know that the summer of broken leaves is very hot, and you can't sleep at all.There are so many dormitories, but there is only one common toilet and shower room.Many of the windows have no glass, only some iron window frames remain.As for what to eat, not to mention, to put it nicely, it is a little stronger than pig food, at least every ten days to eat some lard or something.What makes Li Lu angry the most is that this Lin Jinhui actually invented a "full entrustment system" similar to the "contract worker" of later generations, if Li Lu hadn't personally interrogated this Lin Jinhui, he almost thought that this Lin Jinhui was a capitalist from later generations.Lin Jinhui's invention of the "full trust labor system" is exactly the same as the notorious contract worker, when he was recruiting, he said that the sky was wild, and he tried his best to get the workers to sign a long-term full trust contract, and after signing the contract, the workers found that things were wrong, because this contract is a typical overlord contract, the manufacturer has no responsibility, and the workers only have obligations.When investigating Lin Jinhui, Li Lu also found that under his rule, there was such a frenzied thing as dispatch workers, according to Jinyiwei's investigation, some factories under his rule signed contracts with some foremen, and these foremen provided them with cheap labor.In the British Empire of Li Lu, most of the female workers were free workers, they chose to come out to work by themselves, and freely decided to work in a certain factory, but the migrant workers brought out by the foremen belonged to the workers who were not free, because their parents signed a contract, almost "sold", and a child was given 1,000 British dollars a year, or 5 or 600 British dollars, even if the factory raised the salary, these foremen unceremoniously took this part of the increase in wages as their own.The foremen make most of their money mainly from the management fees of the workers' wages.These workers, who were not free, entered the factory as dispatch workers.Dispatch workers to short-term factories for one month, ten days, two months......
It depends on the quantity of goods in the factory to determine the length of working hours.The factory does not sign labor contracts with dispatched workers, but directly signs employment contracts with the foremen who control them, and if the foreman has a little conscience, these dispatched workers may sign labor contracts with the factory, but unfortunately there are basically no such foremen.Most of these foremen are black foremen who work privately, and they do not sign labor contracts with the factory, most of them are civil oral agreements, how many people the factory needs, how many things there are, the approximate length of the construction period, and the price (sometimes hourly, sometimes piecework)......
When the work is done, the salary is settled, and the person leaves.In addition to the infuriating full-time workers and dispatch workers, there are also people who have blatantly done the evil thing of enslaving others, after the Daughter's Day fire, when the safety inspection of the whole country was carried out, the Shicheng police rescued a group of kiln slaves, a black-hearted kiln owner on the Shicheng side, deceived people with rhetoric and said that there was food and housing and the salary was high, and after they were fooled, they turned their faces and did not recognize people.This black-hearted kiln owner forced them to work in the brick factory, eating pig food, making cattle and horses, and they were driven up to work before dawn in the morning, and slept like a livestock shed at night.Seven or eight hours a day, no pay, no days off, no self-reliance.
Composed.Every day, the hot bricks had to be carried out of the kiln, and the back was burned, and if it was a little slow, it would be severely beaten and denied food.Unfortunately, some of them are teenagers, and some of them have been tricked into getting a job job introduction.They have no grievances and no enmity with these evil thieves, but because they are not deeply involved in the world, they were calculated by the evil thieves, and they were driven away, enslaved, and trampled on under the rule of law society that Li Lu prided himself on.They are like slaves in a slave society, slaves have nothing, all the fruits of their labor are the slave owner's, the slaves only have the lowest food and clothing guarantees, no private property, no personal freedom, even their children are the private property of the slave owner, their lives are like mustard, not worth mentioning.What makes Li Lu heartbroken and unacceptable the most is that these scumbags represented by Lin Jinhui have stretched out their evil hands to their own basic plates, that is, those Han people, yes, most of these poor people mentioned above are Han people, if Lin Jinhui and their factories are all aliens who don't speak Chinese and don't write Chinese characters, no matter how many people die, Li Lu will not feel distressed, after all, if they are not of my race, their hearts will be different.But Lin Jinhui and the others did not hesitate to attack their own people, so don't blame Li Luxin for being ruthless.
