Enlisting for the second time, starting from the strongest

Chapter 675: Obstruction of Construction
"Did you encounter any problems? It's okay. Isn't it just my job to translate?"

Wang Chen smiled and waved his hand.

But in his heart, he was muttering to himself:

"Someone has already started to obstruct the construction work at the site. Is this why the higher-ups sent me here?"

"Okay, let's deal with this first problem first."

Thinking of this, Wang Chen then happily chatted with Manager Chen about some things on the construction site.

You wouldn't know this until you asked. After asking, you found out that the project they were responsible for constructing was divided into five large groups, and the five groups took turns to carry out the work without interruption.

Wang Chen is now in group five, which is also the last group to enter Cambodia.

Manager Chen is also the project manager of this large group.

According to what he originally said, he was extremely happy to get a job in such a country.

After all, those who have done earthwork work know that what they fear most is that after the project is completed, the subsequent balance will be delayed in payment, and this kind of thing happens quite often.

But if you work with a superior, you don’t have to worry about this at all. You can basically let go and do it boldly.

The subsequent balance will definitely be in place. In fact, when the boss pays the money, the deposit alone directly pays half of the price of the entire project. How can Manager Chen not be excited?

"Alas~ Wang Chen, you are still young."

"To be honest, I can't really tell you what the situation is like in Cambodia right now. I'm mainly worried that you might run into some danger or something."

"After all, Cambodia is not like our country, where you can easily get guns."

"As for guns, you've shot them in the army, right? If someone points a gun at us and causes harm to the people on our construction site, we can't say for sure."

"And have you read the relevant news recently? Vietnam is very dissatisfied with our construction of a canal in Cambodia."

Manager Chen sighed and said.

It was obvious that before he set off, he had a general understanding of the situation here and knew that things might be a little uneasy.

However, he also believed that the other party would never dare to do anything reckless. After all, even if the other party was unwilling to accept the defeat, would they dare to attack them directly?
Their identities represent different meanings. If the other party dares to act recklessly, their superiors will definitely make the other party pay for it.

“I’ve read a lot of related news.”

"It seems that Yue State is making some small moves now."

"But don't worry, squad leader Chen. If they dare to mess with us during construction, I will make sure they pay the price. After all, I used to be a scout, so I'm pretty good at it!"

Wang Chen waved his hands, which could be considered as a way of putting on some armor for himself.

In this way, if I reveal my skills later, I will have a legitimate reason.

"Huh? You're still a scout! Great, great!"

"How about we practice together? I haven't fought anyone in years. I don't even know how much of my boxing skills are still as good as they were when I was young!"

When Manager Chen heard that Wang Chen was still a scout, he asked with shining eyes.

"No need, no need, Sergeant Chen. I'm a young man, and I don't know how to control my strength."

"Squad leader, you look well-maintained. Don't do anything right after you finish your meal."

"Hahaha, you just know how to flatter people, and the key is that I like to listen to it."

"Well, if my good-for-nothing son had half your emotional intelligence, I wouldn't be so sad every day!"

"By the way, why don't you just follow me from now on? I promise to recommend you any good projects."

Manager Chen said with a smile.

The more he looked at Wang Chen, the more he liked him. This guy was not only worldly-wise and handsome, but most importantly, they had a lot in common.

If he could have a guy like this as his assistant, he would be happy all day long.

"Hahaha, Manager Chen, you're joking. I have a childhood sweetheart in Yangcheng. We agreed to live a simple life in Yangcheng after graduation."

"But if we are on the construction site, we won't be home all year round."

"I want to try to find a job in Yangcheng first. If I can't find one, I will come to you. How do you think?"

Wang Chen lied without even blinking an eye.

Manager Chen listened to Wang Chen's words, thought for a while, and finally nodded:

"Okay, it's no wonder you can't tell. He's so handsome, and there are indeed many girls chasing after him."

"If you work on a construction site, you won't be home all year round."

"But if you work on a construction site, you can earn a lot of money. After working for ten years, you can go back home and build a villa and drive a luxury car."

"Okay, the decision is yours anyway, let's see how to solve the problem on the construction site this time."

After Manager Chen said this, he stretched himself sleepily and lay down on his bed.

Seeing this, Wang Chen stopped chatting with the other party. He simply took a shower, changed his clothes, and lay down on the bed.

The hotel bed was a little too soft and comfortable. Compared with the wooden bed in the army, Wang Chen might still prefer a harder wooden bed.

The next morning, Wang Chen was woken up by his biological clock at six o'clock as usual.

After being woken up, I went downstairs and found a breakfast shop. I bought two breakfasts and then returned to the hotel.

When we returned to the hotel, Manager Chen had already woken up. He was a little surprised to see the breakfast that Wang Chen brought back.

But after taking a few quick bites, he said to Wang Chen anxiously:
"Okay, pack up, we're leaving soon."

"Just sit in the same car with me."

Wang Chen followed Manager Chen out of the car. The car he was currently riding in was a Mercedes-Benz G-Class with a suggested retail price of over one million yuan, which suddenly refreshed Wang Chen's cognition.

Can a project manager drive a car like this?
It seems that the other party is not fooling me, and it seems that working on the construction site is really profitable.

Manager Chen was driving, while Wang Chen was sitting in the passenger seat looking at the interior of the car.

This Mercedes-Benz G-Class should be a standard version, without any other interior audio equipment or other things installed.

Wang Chen had seen this type of Mercedes-Benz G in the parking lot of Luo Linlin’s villa before. It was a little different from the top-of-the-line model.

However, for an ordinary person, especially someone who has started from scratch, being able to drive a Mercedes-Benz G-Class is already a very remarkable thing.

Manager Chen looked at Wang Chen who was looking at the interior of his car, and thought that Wang Chen was fascinated by it, so he said with a smile:

"Fortunately, this car is not actually mine. It belongs to a developer on the construction site who didn't have money to pay off his debts, so we just took it and drove it."

"But I have one at home too." "I didn't lie to you, did I? Working on a construction site is really profitable."

"By the way, can you drive? Otherwise, you can drive."

Manager Chen seemed to want Wang Chen to experience the feeling of driving this powerful beast, so he took the initiative to propose.

Wang Chen nodded and took over driving from Manager Chen.

He showed great surprise and astonishment in the middle of the process, which made Manager Chen quite excited.

At the same time, he became more and more satisfied with Wang Chen. If he could let Wang Chen drive for him, that would be a pretty good thing.

Wang Chen drove the rest of the way. The speed was not fast anyway, after all, there were dozens of large trucks such as dump trucks following behind.

We continued driving all the way to the Cambodian border, and there was a minor problem when crossing the border.

Fortunately, Wang Chen, who was driving the first car, communicated with the other party in his concise Cambodian language, and then showed his ID, and the other party naturally let him pass.

The inspection was not particularly strict and the large truck behind was not checked carefully and was allowed to pass directly.

Manager Chen, who was watching this scene, said to Wang Chen with satisfaction:
"You've learned the local language quite well. As expected, there's a translator in the team. Don't be too comfortable."

"That's fine. Isn't this what I specialize in?"

Wang Chen smiled and replied.

In fact, I only studied for about four days and barely mastered the language. If I were to tell others this, it would probably scare them to death.

Wang Chen himself didn't know when his learning ability had become so terrible.

"That's true, well done."

Their convoy of five groups continued to move forward. After entering Cambodia, the road they were going to take became much smoother, but they could clearly feel that the speed of the car had dropped a lot.

After all, it was a whole convoy. In order to ensure their progress, Wang Chen had to speed up a little. Finally, at around four o'clock in the afternoon, he successfully arrived at the place where the five major groups needed to work.

As soon as he arrived at the location, Manager Chen got out of the car and walked into the construction site.

All machines in the entire construction site stopped working. Seeing this, Manager Chen immediately called the person in charge who called him yesterday to find out about the situation.

As a result, when the construction was underway yesterday, the surrounding residents felt that the noise was too loud and would disturb the gods and Buddhas, so they refused to let them continue the construction no matter what.

"Bullshit! Then call the police! How could their superiors not know about this kind of project? And it would disturb the gods and Buddhas. They don't have to dig secretly, and there are no ancestors underground."

"There's no optical cable nearby, so I'll have to take my turn to smoke!"

"Keep working! We finally fought this rich war, and we only had one day off. What a waste of time!"

When facing his subordinates, Manager Chen was not as friendly as he was to Wang Chen. He pointed at the other person's nose and cursed.

"Manager Chen, but..."

"But that's bullshit! Just do it! I'll take the consequences if anything goes wrong!"

"Okay, Manager Chen!"

After his subordinate finished speaking, he immediately began to gather people and resume the corresponding project. The entire construction site began to emit bursts of rumbling sounds again.

However, Manager Chen was not a reckless man. After he asked the team to start working, he quickly found Wang Chen and told him about the current situation on the construction site:

"Brother Wang Chen, what do you think? You should know more about Cambodia than I do."

After listening to Manager Chen's words, Wang Chen looked thoughtful and continued:

"Squad Leader Chen, I suspect that you have been frightened."

“Where did the gods and Buddhas come from in Cambodia?”

"As you can see on the road, the places we dig are far away from the city. There is no possibility of affecting the surrounding areas."

"We must have been tricked by someone. Someone didn't want us to do the construction."

"Don't worry, Captain Chen. If anyone obstructs the construction or something, I will negotiate with them."

Listening to Wang Chen's words, Manager Chen's restless heart slowly calmed down, and he nodded towards Wang Chen and said:
"Okay, I believe you."

Wang Chen was a little skeptical. After what happened yesterday, could it be that the people in Cambodia didn’t know about it?

That's definitely not possible, right?

Since we have already dug a canal here, it would be a bit too strange to create another one without knowing it.

So Wang Chen felt that there might be someone setting a trap here and just didn’t want them to complete the construction.

In fact, we have just learned from Manager Chen that their fifth group is actually responsible for something very important. The canals they are digging now will be connected with the other four groups later, so the progress cannot be slowed down.

The sooner the better, they are also a very important part.

"By the way, Wang Chen, I might need to talk to you about this."

"The translator yesterday was beaten up by some local troublemakers. That's why he can't socialize with them now."

"If they send someone later, and you see something is wrong, you should immediately hide among our crowd. You can't get hurt."

Manager Chen suddenly thought of something and said to Wang Chen in front of him.

"Don't worry, Manager Chen, nothing serious will happen to me."

In response to the other party's concern, Wang Chen responded with a smile.

About half an hour after the construction started, a group of uninvited guests broke into the gate of the construction site.

There were about twenty of them, all locals holding sticks, and they looked extremely fierce.

After breaking into the gate of the construction site, they started attacking the gate with sticks in their hands. It seemed as if they were going to tear down the entire construction site.

The security guard at the construction site immediately reported the situation to Manager Chen.

In order to avoid being at a disadvantage, Manager Chen immediately brought more than a dozen of his men to the gate.

Looking at the number of people and appearance of the other side, I felt a little ashamed.

He finally understood that there was nothing he could do yesterday and he couldn't start work because of no reason.

Manager Chen set his sights on Wang Chen. Wang Chen nodded, strode forward to the leader of the other party, and asked in the local language:

"What are you doing here? Why are you hindering our construction?"
