After sometime there was a knock on the main door, roopa opened it to find my dad's bro and his wife. Divya greeted them inside and asked roopa to make coffee for all of us. Roopa went inside to make. Dad's bro came straight to the point, he said can your aunt work in your office as we are going through tough times financially, she is a graduate and knows accounts as well. She had worked before marriage too. I told him, sorry uncle, if you had called me today morning also i would have asked aunt to join, today only i hired three ladies, he asked for what pay? Roopa got coffee for all of us, i showed roopa and told she too started working from today. Aunt asked roopa what is your pay in office? roopa said 4k, uncle said that will do if you can find a position for your aunt too. I told him i hired two more ladies today and for now i can't afford another extra one. Divya asked one is roopa and one more is madam's sister, who is the third one? I told divya one specialist in my field, her name is kritika. Divya asked what is her sal, i told 15k plus incentives, she asked what is shamili's sal, i told about the same as she too is good in working. Roopa said i asked for 5k and he didn't agree but paying 15k each to shamili and kriti, it is not fair. I asked roopa, did you learn everything i taught you? she said no, both kriti and shamili are going to make money for me so that i can hire people like you and pay salary. If you are interested work or find another job for yourself. All relationships are out of office and only work is worshipped in office and no relationships are valued inside, even though you are her sister and pointed to divya. Divya asked so you are going to pay 34k sal from this month, i said from next month, this month is already getting over in 2 days.
Uncle called me for another smoke and i went with him to the terrace, aunt too followed. I had played around her in childhood and those memories flashed back once. Didn't smoke due to respect to her. Told uncle if you need any financial help i can do, but job for her is very difficult. Aunt asked me the office address and said can i visit your office once, i said sure aunt and gave her the address. Uncle said our factory is in lockout and i think bank people are trying to sell the factory to recover their loan. I asked him casually what factory, he said iron works where they make lot of things. I asked him, does it have demand in market, he said their factory brand was number one in market and some admin people destroyed the supply chain and made sure the factory is locked out. I asked about the owners, he said, owner is an old man and his only son went to US long back and is not coming back to india, owner couldn't control the events as he had left everything at admin guys mercy and this is what they did to the hand that fed us. He continued that some builders are trying to buy the land as it is on main road and close the factory and send all the workers home. There are about 100 of us working round the clock to run the factory and bank has seized it an locked it from 3 months. Out of curiosity i asked him can i see the factory once, he said i will have to bribe the admin guy to go inside the factory. I said sure uncle, we will go there first thing in the morning.
Came down and divya started enquiring about kritika as she knew roopa and shamili. Told her she is the teacher of some relative of manujula akka and she is exceptionally good with work, so hired her for such huge salary. Had a small session with divya and slept. Next morning called kritika and asked her to come home, introduced divya to her. Had breakfast and told roopa to go with shamili to office and called shamili and asked her to work with roopa today as me and kritika are going out for some work. Called dad's bro and took him in my bike and kriti followed us. Bribed 1k to one guy and only then he took us inside. Had a look, the place was about 3 acres and factory machines were looking old, uncle said these are latest machines imported just 6 months back and due to not working since last 3 months they are looking like that. Kriti had a through look around the factory without missing any details. I asked uncle, which bank is trying to sell it? he gave the same bank as my account but different branch. I told him thank you and me and kriti left from there. Went to bank and met the manager and asked him the details, he said there is a loan of 35lacs pending and interest and other things added will come to 44 lacs and that's why they are going to auction the property and recover their loan.
I asked him what is the value of the factory currently, he refused to divulge the details and said factory is no use, but the land is and we have already been contacted by 4-5 builders who are interested in the land. I asked him what if i want to clear the loan, will the bank give me the ownership of the factory. Bank manager used threatning voice to me and said don't get involved in it. I understood that he is the one trying to make moolah from the factory sale. Thanked him and came out. Called dad's bro and asked him owner's address. He gave the address, took kriti with me and went to meet him. He didn't open the door for a long time after we knocked. We sat on the small stairs and waited patiently. Finally after about 2 hours the door creaked and an old man without opening the door completely asked, are you from any labourer's family. i told him no sir, he asked then who are you. I told him, i want to buy the factory sir. He scowled at me and said that factory ruined my life, i built it all through my years and now after leaving it i am living peacefully.
