Chapter 13: Construction Begins

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Most people left work by 9 pm. 

However, one of the offices in the government building still had its light on. 

“Boss, your wife just called. She wants to know what time you’re going home.”

“Tell her not to wait up as I still have some materials to read.”

“Okay, boss.”

The office door closed. George rubbed the space in between his eyebrows and continued to read.

A while later, he proceeded to work on the bidding for the transfer housing complex. 

George was not someone who lacked money or accepted gifts. He just wanted to do something for the people.

Therefore, the first thing that he wanted to do when he took over the office was to suppress housing prices.


His idea was very good. However, it was easier said than done. 

Although he was an enforcer, it was impossible for him to drive down the prices of commercial housing through orders. It was simply impossible.

As a result, he started to transfer houses.

As long as the residential area was well built, they can demolish part of the property to build commercial houses. 

It would make a difference if the commercial houses were sold at a low price.

If the commercial houses could not be sold, the developers would have no choice but to lower the prices of the properties.

However, it had been more than three months.

His proposal to transfer the houses could not be implemented.

This was because there was no developer who wanted to accept the project. The government could not build the houses themselves either.

George considered raising the budget. He was certain that someone would accept the project so long there was money to be made. 

However, the financial department was not on his side.

The budget for the housing transfer was quite little, and what people had to say about it was also very reasonable.

According to the construction standards of the plan, the budget of 550 million was enough.

This was a long time coming, and George did not know what to do.

“If it really cannot be done, I will need to go north to ask my friends for help,” George thought to himself helplessly.

When George arrived at his office the next morning, he saw a new document on his desk.

“Hmm? Did anyone accept the transfer project? Super Power Construction Engineering Company Limited?”

George was speechless when he saw the name of the company. 

He did not know the company and therefore had no impression of it. 

It must be some random company. It was definitely not on the same level as those big companies.

“The company’s information is linked? A 30-person construction team?”

George continued to read the information.

“Only two important projects were completed. Building roads and modifying toilets? No houses were built?”

George was speechless after he read the company’s information.

This was just a shell company, and they wanted to accept this project of transferring houses?

How ridiculous was that?

Were they sent by a competitor?

Were they planning to take the project money and run?

George began to think. After all, the information that they provided did not give him any clear picture.

However, even if George’s competitors wanted to destroy him, they would not have sent such a company. 

The company’s introduction was too fake.

If they wanted him to fall for it, they should at least make it more believable. 

George was very conflicted.

At first, no one wanted to accept his project. 

Suddenly, a shell company wants to accept his project. 

This made George even more conflicted than before. 

“Second uncle, can you help me investigate the Super Power Construction Company?”

In the end, George called his relatives for help. His second uncle was the leader of the investigators.

If there was a problem with the Super Power Construction Company, it would be easy to find out.

“Super Power Construction Company? Are you related to this company?”

When George’s second uncle heard the name of the Super Power Construction Company, his tone became serious. 

“No, second uncle. Is there something wrong with this company?”

“This is a public secret. You don’t have the authority to know. Tell me. Why do you want me to investigate the Super Power Construction Company?”

“Second uncle, it’s like this…”

George told him about the Super Power Construction Company and how the company had accepted the project. He also told his second uncle about his concerns. 

“Is that so? Wait for my call.”

Half an hour later, George received a call.

“Hand the transfer project to the Super Power Construction Company. You don’t have to worry about the rest.”

“Why?”

“Please don’t ask so many questions. Even if there is a problem with the project, it has nothing to do with you. The investigators have accepted responsibility for this matter.”

“Thank you, second uncle.”

“You only need to be responsible for the allocation of funds.”

George was relieved. Even if there was a problem with the project, he would not be responsible.

At the same time, he was also very curious. What company was this? Is the company a front for hiding something? Why would the investigators take action?

“Boss, the construction area has been approved. Our company has accepted the proposal to transfer the housing complex. So long as the contract is signed, the first batch of money will be transferred to the company’s account within three days,” Eve reported to Smith.

“It has been approved so fast?”

Smith was very surprised. He did not expect the project to be approved so quickly. He was still contemplating whether to send gifts or treat the department leader to a meal. 

“Boss, our company does not have the ability to build the entire housing complex. Should we look for people?” Eve asked tentatively.

“No need. I will arrange the construction staff.”

“Boss, you’re not thinking of outsourcing, are you? The contract clearly states that outsourcing is not allowed.”

“How is it possible to outsource? Our company will build it ourselves. Alright, you don’t have to ask anymore regarding this matter. I’ll arrange the project myself.”


Smith did not want to say anything further and sent Eve away. 

A week later, Smith signed the contract.

He also received an advance payment of 180 million for the project. He then brought 500 construction robots to the construction site.

In order to cover his tracks, Smith had to spend money to exchange for some construction robots.

After all, the boundary of the construction site still needed to be guarded. He needed someone to be there in case any inspections were carried out. It was not possible to leave the site empty.

“Alright, start construction. Build the fence first,” Smith ordered.

The fence was built that night.

Smith opened the system and exchanged a large set of construction buildings.

The equipment was very beautiful.

“System, start building!”
