Chapter 32

~10 min read 1,863 words

Although there was no strong wind today, the weather was still very cold.

Winter had arrived, and the temperature in the north had plummeted.

The truck convoy was unobstructed and soon arrived at the western suburbs.

This time, when the workers entered the site, they first had to build worker dormitories and a command post.

Here, thousands of workers would start working, and logistics had to be guaranteed before starting.

Under the leadership of Director Liu, Chen Tian, Factory Director Yang, Wang Lao, and others went to the site first, because large machinery and equipment had arrived and needed to solve the problem of entering the site.

"What the hell kind of place is this."

"I’m just a movie projectionist, why bring me here?"

Xu Xu Damao, who had been uneasy all the way, jumped off the truck and was confused.

Liu Liu Haizhong looked at the desolate scene and the dense crowd of workers, and was dumbfounded.

He vaguely felt that being brought here was not a good thing.

"Hehe, Xu Xu Damao, are you scared already?"

"In a while, I’ll let you go move stones!"

"You little chicken, don't get tired to death here." Sha Zhu mocked Xu Xu Damao for being timid.

Xu Xu Damao’s expression changed suddenly; he couldn't do this kind of work.

"Sha Zhu, you stinky pig, you’re the one moving stones!"

"I know, you fell into the cesspit here, right?"

"Then you have feelings for this place."

Xu Xu Damao’s words made everyone laugh.

Sha Zhu’s face turned green.

The matter of him falling into the cesspit had become a joke for the whole factory.

There were many new workers present, and everyone would be very familiar in the future; he didn't expect Xu Xu Damao to ruin his reputation on the first day.

"Xu Xu Damao, I’ll beat you to death."

Sha Zhu raised his fist and rushed toward Xu Xu Damao.

Xu Xu Damao was terrified; he didn't expect Sha Zhu to dare to commit violence in front of so many people.

"Brother Zhuzi, stop!"

At the critical moment, Yi Yi Zhonghai held Sha Zhu back.

"Don't you see what kind of place this is!"

"Hitting people here, do you want to be locked in solitary confinement?" Yi Yi Zhonghai stopped Sha Zhu.

He knew clearly that it must be Chen Tian’s idea to bring them all here.

At this construction site, Chen Tian had the final say.

They had better be stable and obey arrangements so they wouldn't be punished by Chen Tian.

"Xu Xu Damao, you dog thing, I’ll kill you sooner or later."

Sha Zhu spat and scolded.

Xu Xu Damao hid on the side, not daring to speak.

Mocking once was fine, but if he really angered Sha Zhu, he would definitely get beaten.

At this time, Li Changhai walked over.

"He He Yuzhu."

"Yi Yi Zhonghai."

"You two, continue to be responsible for moving equipment today!" As soon as Li Changhai got off the truck, he directed Sha Zhu and Yi Yi Zhonghai.

"With so many workers, why do we have to move it again." Sha Zhu was bitter and reluctant.

"He He Yuzhu, what kind of expression is that!" Li Changhai was unhappy.

He was in contact with such a huge project for the first time, and as the deputy factory director of the Rolling Steel Factory, he was responsible for arranging the specific work of the workers.

Before it even started, Sha Zhu wouldn't listen to orders.

"He He Yuzhu, I tell you, if you don't listen to orders, I’ll immediately have the Security Section lock you up!"

"In the future, don't talk about being a cook, you won't even be able to clean toilets!" Li Changhai said angrily.

Being refuted by Sha Zhu in front of so many people, Li Changhai wanted to fire Sha Zhu.

Yi Yi Zhonghai’s face was also ugly.

Just carrying equipment up the mountain the day before yesterday made his whole body sore.

Later, he even carried Sha Zhu for the whole way, and his bones were about to fall apart.

The construction of the steel mill had just begun, and he didn't know how hard the days ahead would be. ===== CHAPTER 76 =====

"A 40-ton crane has already been transported here."

"Chief Engineer Chen, what do you mean...?"

Wang Lao, with graying hair, widened his eyes and looked at Chen Tian in disbelief.

Vaguely, he seemed to have guessed Chen Tian’s idea.

Chen Tian met Wang Lao’s eyes and nodded.

"No, this is too risky!"

Wang Lao said loudly, attracting everyone’s attention.

"Wang Lao, what’s wrong with you, why are you so excited."

"Chief Engineer Chen, have you thought of a way?"

Director Liu and Factory Director Yang immediately gathered around.

The heavy machinery on the truck needed a 60-ton crane; what was the use of Chen Tian finding a 40-ton one?

Could it be that he had already thought of a way?

Facing the current predicament, all the experts were at their wits' end.

Loading and unloading machines of this level required extremely experienced drivers to handle them.

Among the workers present, there were many old hands with over a dozen years of construction experience.

Not a single one could think of a solution.

Now, all their hopes were on Chen Tian.

"Director Liu, since there is no 60-ton crane, then we will use the 40-ton one!"

Chen Tian’s words instantly caused an uproar.

"God, what a bold idea!"

"What, use a 40-ton crane to replace a 60-ton one?"

"This is simply impossible!"

"Chief Engineer Chen is too arrogant; he is still young after all!"

"Even Zhang Gong, who has over a dozen years of construction experience, said there is no way, how could Chief Engineer Chen be so rash?"

"Young is young; for the sake of face, a major accident is going to happen!"

Including Wang Lao, Zhou Gong, and others, all disagreed with Chen Tian’s method.

"Chief Engineer Chen, I know you are in a hurry, but we can't act recklessly!"

"These mechanical devices were purchased by the state at a huge cost and provided for our use."

"Each one is extremely precious."

"Now, you want to use a 40-ton crane to unload these machines; the risk is too great!"

Zhou Gong looked anxious; he was a hot-tempered person, but he also knew that one couldn't be blind at such a time.

Although Chen Tian designed the blueprints and his theoretical technology was far beyond everyone else’s, he still lacked experience in actual operation on the construction site.

"Yes, Chief Engineer Chen."

"Without a 60-ton crane, let’s think of another way. If the machines are damaged and the construction of the steel mill is delayed, that would be a crime!"

"At that time, you will have to take full responsibility!"

"Chief Engineer Chen, we can't be eager for quick success!" Director Liu repeatedly tried to dissuade Chen Tian.

In the field, the workers also shook their heads one after another, thinking Chen Tian was bragging.

"We can't wait any longer! Our country doesn't have a 60-ton crane; if they refuse to lend it, how long will we have to wait!!" Chen Tian said in a deep voice.

Sha Zhu stood on the side, his eyes sinister.

He didn't understand engineering, but he also understood the importance of the matter.

Chen Tian insisted on using a 40-ton crane to lift a machine that only a 60-ton crane could lift; if this wasn't courting death, what was?

Sha Zhu loved to see Chen Tian acting tough.

Sha Zhu hated Chen Tian to the core and wished Chen Tian would make a fool of himself, preferably losing face in front of everyone.

These machines were so precious; if they followed Chen Tian’s method, they would definitely be damaged.

At that time, pinning the crime of damaging state property on Chen Tian would definitely make him suffer.

Sha Zhu looked at Chen Tian and sneered.

In the few days since Chen Tian returned to the Sihe Academy, Sha Zhu’s life had undergone huge changes.

Not only was his wife-money compensated, but he wasn't even allowed to work as the head chef of the Rolling Steel Factory.

In just a few days, he had been beaten up by Chen Tian twice.

He had also turned from a cook into a handyman on the construction site.

And he even fell into a cesspit while going to the bathroom.

Sha Zhu felt that these were the unluckiest days of his life.

All because of Chen Tian.

If Chen Tian forcibly lifted the machine today, it definitely wouldn't succeed, and what awaited Chen Tian would be jail.

Sha Zhu was looking forward to it and even hoped the leaders would agree to Chen Tian’s method.

Yi Yi Zhonghai’s face was dark, staring viciously at Chen Tian.

"Hmph, little brat, doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth."

"Hurry, hurry up, this time, I’ll make you lose your reputation!" Like Sha Zhu, Yi Yi Zhonghai had been made miserable by Chen Tian.

In this situation, even a construction team leader with decades of experience wouldn't dare to guarantee it, yet Chen Tian, a young man who had just graduated from university, was bragging.

In Yi Yi Zhonghai’s eyes, Chen Tian was just a guy who got lucky and got into university.

Chen Tian made the Sihe Academy chaotic; Yi Yi Zhonghai not only paid several hundred yuan to compensate for the Jia family, but was also scolded by Chen Tian himself.

For decades, the prestige and persona Yi Yi Zhonghai built in the Sihe Academy had already shown serious problems just a few days after Chen Tian returned.

Yi Yi Zhonghai wished Chen Tian would start lifting the machine.

As long as Chen Tian failed, the machine would definitely be damaged or even scrapped.

Then Chen Tian’s crime would be huge.

Even if he was a level-3 engineer, he would have to sit in the station and squat in a cell.

In the crowd, Liu Liu Haizhong’s rat-like eyes kept rolling, staring tightly at Chen Tian.

Like Sha Zhu and Yi Yi Zhonghai, Liu Liu Haizhong also hoped Chen Tian would make a fool of himself today.

It would be best if he were taken away directly and locked in prison.

Liu Liu Haizhong had always wanted to be the First Uncle of the Sihe Academy.

With Yi Yi Zhonghai pressing in front, Liu Liu Haizhong had never found an opportunity.

Recently, Yi Yi Zhonghai’s status had been affected.

After Chen Tian came to the Sihe Academy, Sha Zhu and Yi Yi Zhonghai didn't know how to die and went to provoke him.

As a result, the two were made miserable by Chen Tian.

Even if Yi Yi Zhonghai was brought down by Chen Tian and was no longer First Uncle.

Then the position of the manager of the Sihe Academy still wouldn't be Liu Liu Haizhong’s turn.

Chen Tian was still pressing in front of him.

Chen Tian was a level-3 engineer; if Chen Tian became the First Uncle, Liu Liu Haizhong would have even less chance to get ahead. ===== CHAPTER 77 =====
