Shen Qiqi quickly walked to the pile of materials and examined them carefully.

She frowned, realizing that things were more serious than she had imagined.

Not only was the quantity of materials insufficient, but there were also problems with the previous material usage plan, and a lot of materials were wasted.

A fire instantly ignited in her heart. These guys really made things difficult for her!

"Stop arguing!" Shen Qiqi said loudly. Although her voice was not loud, it carried an unquestionable majesty that instantly calmed the situation. "Now listen to me!"

She quickly thought about it in her mind, and relying on her experience in her previous life, she quickly developed a new plan for using materials.

She explained to the workers in detail how to use existing materials more efficiently and avoid waste.

The workers were stunned when they heard it. They were a little unconvinced at first, but they were soon convinced by Shen Qiqi's clear thinking and professional knowledge.

Following Shen Qiqi's instructions, they resumed work and soon discovered that the utilization rate of materials was greatly improved and the progress of the project was accelerated.

"This Shen San's daughter-in-law is really good at what she does!" A worker couldn't help but admire her.

"Yes, if it weren't for her, we might have to stop working today!" another worker echoed.

Hearing these praises, Shen Qiqi felt a little more comfortable.

She secretly clenched her fists. What was this little setback?

She will definitely be able to lead everyone to complete this project!

However, the good times did not last long.

Accountant Li walked over with his hands on his hips, an abacus in his hand, and an impatient look on his face.

"Hey, why haven't you started working yet? You're just slacking off!" Accountant Li said sarcastically. "I'm telling you, the village has limited funds. Don't even think about asking for more! Without money, nothing can be done!"

When Shen Qiqi heard this, the passion in her heart was instantly extinguished.

She looked at Accountant Li coldly. This guy was a typical miser who never spent a penny!

"Accountant Li, now is not the time to talk about this!" Shen Qiqi suppressed the anger in her heart and tried her best to make her tone appear calm. "The project is progressing smoothly now, but the materials are insufficient and the funds must be in place!"

"Funds? You have wasted all the funds! I won't give you a penny anymore!" Accountant Li said, flicked his sleeves, turned around and left.

Shen Qiqi looked at his departing back, the anger in her heart completely ignited.

She clenched her fists and smiled coldly, "Oh, this old guy is really a stone in the toilet, so smelly and hard!"

Since talking nicely is useless, don't blame her for being rude!

"Lu Qing, let's go! Let's go find Accountant Li and have some good talk with him!" Shen Qiqi's eyes were firm, and a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

She strode towards the village committee office, each step filled with determination and confidence.

Shen Qiqi rushed to the village committee office angrily and kicked the door open, scaring Accountant Li so much that he almost rolled off his chair.

"Accountant Li, if you don't clarify the money issue today, I'll never let you go!" Shen Qiqi put her hands on her hips, like a domineering queen, with her aura fully open.

Accountant Li was frightened by her gesture and quickly waved his hands: "Let's talk it over nicely, don't hit me! I'm an old man and I can't stand your bullying!"

Shen Qiqi sneered, moved a stool, sat down opposite Accountant Li, and began to fire like a machine gun: "Accountant Li, let me do the math for you. If this water conservancy project succeeds, every household in the village will thank you. If it fails, you will be the sinner of the village! By then, you will have to sleep with one eye open!"

Accountant Li was speechless after hearing what Shen Qiqi said. He frugally defended himself, "It's not that I don't want to give you money, it's just that our village has limited funds and we can't spend it carelessly!"

Shen Qiqi had expected him to say that, so she took out the data she had prepared, pointed at the numbers on it, and analyzed them one by one: "Look, this is the budget I made. Every penny is clearly stated! I promise that every penny will be spent wisely and there will be no waste!"

She spoke eloquently and analyzed the significance, benefits and risks of the project in a clear and logical manner, leaving Accountant Li dizzy.

Accountant Li looked at the densely packed data and felt like he was reading a foreign language. He was overwhelmed.

Finally, he was finally convinced by Shen Qiqi's eloquence and professionalism, and said, "Alright, alright, I'm scared of you! I'll give it to you! Is it okay if I give it to you?"

When Shen Qiqi heard this, the corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a victorious smile, "Wouldn't it have been done earlier? Why waste your breath?" After dealing with the stubborn old accountant Li, Shen Qiqi felt that she was simply the most sober person in the world, and she gave a thumbs up to her own wit!

Just when Shen Qiqi thought everything was under control, a worker ran over in a panic and shouted, "Oh no! Oh no! Sister Shen, there's a problem with the project!"

Shen Qiqi's heart tightened, and an ominous premonition came over her. She hurriedly asked, "What's going on? Tell me slowly."

"The workers said that they have hit a layer of hard soil and can't dig any deeper. What's more, water is seeping down from that place, making the entire foundation shaky. No one dares to start work," the worker said anxiously.

"What? Hard soil layer? And it's leaking?" Shen Qiqi felt as if someone had hit her hard on the back of the head with a stick, and her head was dizzy.

She hurried to the scene of the accident with Lu Qing, and looked at the scene in front of her with a frown.

The workers gathered together with sad faces, at a loss as to what to do.

"I'll go take a look." Lu Qing said, and was about to step forward, but was pulled back by Shen Qiqi.

"Don't go, it's not safe." Shen Qiqi frowned, "I'll go!" After she finished speaking, she walked towards the workers, leaving Lu Qing with a resolute back.
