Chapter 12: Focus On Your Work

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After the employees left, Smith locked up the office. He was the last to leave.

When Smith stepped into the elevator, his stomach started to growl.

This time, it was not diarrhea, but hunger.

“I haven’t eaten lunch yet?”

Smith suddenly remembered that he was playing games the whole day. He did not feel hungry in the afternoon, so he did not eat lunch. 

As a matter of fact, Smith was not the only one who had forgotten to eat lunch. After leaving the office, the group of elite investigators also looked confused.

“What did we do today?”

Not only did they work all day and missed their meals, but they have also forgotten to monitor Smith.

They only cared about working.

The group of elite investigators returned to the investigator’s office after eating.

They wanted to report what they had on Smith for the first day. After all, they were not really there to work, but to monitor Smith.

“Everyone is here. Tell us about today,” the lead investigator instructed.

The investigators looked at each other. 

In the end, Barrett said helplessly, “Leader, we have been working for the whole day. We didn’t even have lunch. As for the surveillance mission, we might have forgotten to carry it out.”

Smith did not know that the group of elite investigators was being lectured by their leader.

After he finished eating, he returned to the office once again. He was prepared to change the energy + 25 attribute. This was because he was full of energy whenever he set foot in the office. He did not even have to eat to have energy.

If this went on for a long time, he would probably be famished.

Smith proceeded to spend 100,000 yuan to change the second attribute. The energy + 25 attribute was changed to serious responsibility + 25.

“Okay, that’s more like it.”

Smith nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave.

When Smith arrived at the company the next day, everyone was already working.

“Good morning, boss!”

When everyone saw Smith, they all stood up to greet him.

Smith nodded and walked into his office.

“Boss, Barrett’s project cost has been calculated. This is the result of the calculation.”

Secretary Eve walked into Smith’s office with the data.

“Okay, you can leave it here,” said Smith whilst nodding.

After Eve gave Smith the datasheet, she also went to make tea for him.

“I didn’t expect for there to be so many projects in the construction area that needed talents.”

After Smith saw the statistics, he was a little surprised. He did not expect there to be so many projects in the construction area.

Dilapidated houses, road repairs, sewer dredging, square renovation, renovation of government offices, underwater tunnels, warehouse renovation, transfer housing blocks, and a series of other projects were available.

Although many of the projects were not major projects, one advantage was that these projects could last him a long time. For example, repair of roads, sewer maintenance, and dredging projects. Although those were not big projects, there were plenty of them. 

Smith then distributed the projects. 

This was because those projects did not require people with a lot of skills. Smith could find people to do these projects easily given the competitive job market. 

Plus, it would not cost much to hire them.

“Why are the qualification requirements for the underwater tunnel project so high? My small company can’t fulfill them…”

Smith really wanted to take on the underwater tunnel project. This was because he could make a lot of money if he took on the project. 

Unfortunately, he was running a small company, and his qualifications were ranked at the bottom of all the companies.

In the end, there were only two projects that were available. One was a warehouse renovation, and the other was the construction of the transfer housing complex. 

The budget for the renovation of the warehouse was 70 million, and the bidding price was between 75 million and 80 million. If he had quoted a price, the entire project could be transferred for 30 million.

As for the construction of the transfer housing complex, the budget was 530 million, but the government only gave a budget of 500 million. The requirements and targets for the project were also very high. The project had been on notice for three months, but no one was willing to take it on. 

To put it bluntly, this was all a performance and face project, for political propaganda.

Unfortunately, at the same time, the government budget was too little, and the construction company would not sell the house. One had to leave after building the house.

Therefore, no one was willing to do such a non-profitable business.

However, the project was very cost-effective for Smith.

The budget cost was 530 million. However, the system only required 200 million to build the residential area and Smith’s net profit would already be more than 350 million.

“Please ask Barrett to write a proposal. The company will bid for the construction of the transfer housing area. The bid price is 550 million.”

“Okay, boss.”

After an hour later, Barrett finished writing the proposal. The efficiency was almost humorous. 

“Very good. Your efficiency is very high. I’m very satisfied.”

“Thank you, boss.”

“Send the proposal to the management company now.”

“Okay.”

“By the way, there’s one more thing that I need you to do. Go to Clive. He is the manager of the park management office. Please give him the keys to his house and tell him that the renovation has been completed. He can go over to have a look.”

Smith signed the proposal and stamped it with the official seal before letting Barrett continue with his work.

Two hours later, Barrett found Clive.

However, he did not plan to just pass the keys directly to Clive. Instead, he told Clive to go see the house first. If he was satisfied, then he can pay the balance.

Clive did not think too much about it and brought Barrett to the new house.

“Very good, I’m very satisfied. I’ll go to the bank and call the boss right away. You may go back first,” said Clive. He was satisfied after seeing the new house. 

“Okay, then I’ll go,” said Barrett.

After Barrett left Clive’s new house, he went to make a phone call.

“Leader, there’s a new situation. The target is park ranger Clive who had just renovated his new house. I think there’s a problem with his house.”

“What’s the problem?”

“I don’t know yet, but I hope that you can send two colleagues here to observe Clive’s house for a week. We can then see if there’s anything special going on with the Clive family.”

“Okay, I got it. I’ll arrange it right away.”

Barrett hung up the phone and looked at the third floor of Clive’s house. He was very curious about what was going to happen to Clive.
