860: Chapter 859: The God of Wealth Arrives!
A few minutes later.
Wu Jie and Chu Yunxuan were ready to take the helicopter to the county town.
Obviously, the village cadres and Lin had informed everyone of Wu Jie’s identity.
Just as the helicopter took off, Chu Yunxuan saw Lin chasing out of the yard like a madman.
After falling in the field ridges, he kept kowtowing and crying out.
However, the droning of the helicopter drowned out his cries.
“Taking a helicopter to the county town for a meal, isn’t this a bit too showy?”
Wu Jie turned his head and asked Chu Yunxuan with a smile.
“Is this considered showy?
I actually think you’re being too low-key, Jie!”
Chu Yunxuan said with a smile.
Wu Jie gave a faint smile, then turned his head to look out of the cabin window.
The helicopter flew past hills, forests, and farmlands, and soon arrived at the county seat of Bailing County.
Similar to Wu Jie’s home county, the city was not large and the population was not high.
Because there had often been helicopters flying to and fro recently due to the survey and design of routes,
Another helicopter appearing in the skies near the county town didn’t cause much of a stir.
But landing at the highway project department on the edge of the county town was quite a novelty.
In front of the project department building, there was a wide open space, large enough to accommodate hundreds of dump trucks, excavators, loaders, and the like.
Plus it was Tanglong Industrial Group’s own turf, obviously the most suitable place to land.
No sooner had the helicopter settled, a crowd from the project department gathered around.
Who could arrive by helicopter if not some big shot?
Humming…
The hum slowly diminished as the rotor blades came gently to a stop.
Once the powerful gusts of wind had settled and the swirling dust had cleared, Wu Jie opened the cabin door.
“Let’s go to the canteen for some food and a rest.
We’ve got a few more flights this afternoon!”
Wu Jie reminded the pilot, then he and Chu Yunxuan disembarked.
Seeing that it was the company and group’s high-ranking officials who had arrived, the project department’s people were overjoyed.
Especially Wu Jie!
He was like the God of Wealth in everyone’s eyes!
The Bing City West Mountain Expressway Company was a wholly-owned subsidiary that the group had only recently established.
Doing construction work was hard, and managing a comprehensive construction project that involved construction, operation, and maintenance was even harder.
Building an expressway took at least a year or two, and if there were delays due to major tunnels and bridges, it would take even longer.
Although it wasn’t as bad as living out in the open, being away from home and relatives was inevitable.
But ever since Wu Jie announced the group employee benefit of three Detox Pills per month, what hardships?
Hardship, my ass!
Those who previously looked down on construction sites and were unwilling to travel to work at the company were now kicking themselves.
And the employees who had been eagerly awaiting their salary and Detox Pills on the 1st of September greeted Wu Jie with beaming faces, each racing to get there faster than the last.
Seeing everyone’s enthusiasm, as a high-level executive, it wasn’t possible to say nothing, right?
“You go to the city first and buy some clothes to change into.
Be back by one o’clock sharp for lunch!”
Wu Jie fully understood Chu Yunxuan’s awkward situation.
Her shirt was hastily fastened with paperclips, obviously constricting her figure, which must not have been comfortable.
Moreover, as most people at the project department were rugged bachelors, having a bunch of starving wolves stare at her must have been uncomfortable.
“Then I’ll make a quick trip!”
Chu Yunxuan hugged her handbag close in front of her and immediately went to arrange a car to the city area.
Meanwhile, Wu Jie turned around, facing the employees with their faces full of smiles, brimming with enthusiasm, and asked loudly:
“We’re going to start full-scale work tomorrow.
Does everyone have the confidence to finish within a year?”
“Yes!!”
Everyone shouted in unison, their spirits soaring like a rainbow.
“There’s no such thing!”
Wu Jie cursed with a smile, “The construction period is secondary, quality is the key!
This is a road that benefits nearly forty million people along its route, to enrich them.
If anyone screws this up and makes a shoddy project out of it, don’t blame me for taking him to pave the road, got it?”
“Got it!!”
Everybody responded with laughter.
In fact, from the very beginning of the project, President Tang Xiao had issued an order.
Safety first!
Quality first!
At any cost!
Regardless of the sacrifice!
Regardless of the timeline!
It has to be a road built with conscience, a road to prosperity.
This is the first of its kind in the country, a highway that is financed, built, and operated entirely by a private enterprise.
To put it bluntly, this road is the face of Tanglong Industrial Group.
If a shabby, congested highway with design flaws were to be built, causing drivers to curse and rant,
How could anyone be content after paying toll fees to drive on a terrible road with speed limits?
That would be a loss of face for the group, and even more so for Wu Jie.
Of course.
When you talk to people who are on the construction site all year round, you need to be loud, straightforward, and plain.
Fancy words won’t work with them.
After speaking for a while, Wu Jie made a round inside the project department.
Checking equipment and materials, testing the quality of the construction materials, understanding the construction schedule, listening to work reports…
Having come all the way here, you have to have a bit of a leader’s presence, right?
After completing the procedures, it’s also necessary to deliver an important speech, reiterating the president’s orders and encouraging morale.
As for lunch…
Is that even a question?
The cooks had already pulled out all the stops, preparing their best signature dishes.
A splendid feast was served at the table.
Having been busy all morning, Wu Jie was naturally starving, had it not been for his promise to Chu Yunxuan, he would have started eating already.
Chatting casually while waiting, by one o’clock, Chu Yunxuan had still not returned.
The project manager was also anxious; how could they keep Mr.
Wu waiting?
He immediately called the driver.
And received news that Chu Yunxuan had run into trouble.
Hearing this, how could Wu Jie have an appetite for food?
He immediately led people to drive straight to the clothing city.
On the way, he learned that Chu Yunxuan was trying on clothes when she suspected a hidden camera installed on the ceiling.
She demanded the shop owner bring a ladder to take it down, but the shop owner refused, not allowing Chu Yunxuan to buy clothes and telling her to get lost.
An argument broke out between the two, attracting an increasing crowd until the driver decisively called the police.
Just as the police arrived, the shop owner acted like a madman and tried to smash his computer, only to be restrained by the spectators.
At this moment, the police were finding a ladder to check for the presence of covert filming equipment.
There had to be something fishy in the computer; otherwise, the shop owner wouldn’t have been in such a hurry to destroy it.
A fitting room?
Cameras?
Smashing a computer…
These keywords all sounded very much like a particularly despicable crime.
After all, these days, the news is often full of stories.
Couples would rent a room in a hotel, only to find pinhole cameras hidden in power strips, TVs, or ceilings.
And in fact, videos filmed secretly often circulate online without the victims’ knowledge.
Some are just to satisfy private desires, while others are edited by criminals and sold online for profit.
The incident Chu Yunxuan encountered is very likely a case where the dress shop owner was filming videos of customers changing clothes for profit.
Otherwise, if someone else had installed the cameras secretly, why would the shop owner be so eager to smash his own computer?
Isn’t that a clear sign of a guilty conscience?
